*Disclaimer*
I do NOT own Sorcerer Hunters. I do, however, own Shiranu. You'll find out who he is. A real jerk, huh? Well, I'm just writing all of this because who reads these disclaimers anyway. Pitiful people who have nothing to do but read why the person does not own what their writing about. Ooops, that would be YOU wouldn't it? lol, i'm just kidding around. As you can see, I have no life either if I'm taking the time to talk to you about yours. Ah, well. Enjoy.

Carrot yawned and rustled his unkempt hair. He looked in the mirror. Was this
the same man who had been a Sorcerer Hunter so long ago? It had been…how long?
Two years. It seemed like a lifetime.

The phone rang harshly. He scratched his had and damn near tripped on clothes
and other such items he left cluttered on the floor.
"Hello?" he asked the receiver. "Brother? What are you doing? Did you just
wake up?" Marron asked in disapproval. Carrot frowned, but realizing Marron couldn't
see him, he spoke up. "Marron, shut up and tell me why you called." Carrot heard
Marron sigh in frustration.

"Look, Big Mama wants-" Marron began. He was cut off by Carrot. "Oooooh,
no, Marron. I aint goin' to see Big Mama. She's just going to get us all together and tell
us we have a new mission and all of that. I hung up my Sorcerer Hunter hat long ago."
Marron paused. "Brother, we didn't have hats." Carrot rolled his eyes. "Marron, you
know what I mean. I'm not doing that anymore. Plus I'll have to see Chocolate. And
Gateau, god he is arrogant. And then there's-" he halted. Tira, he hasn't seen her in so
long. Two whole years. He remembered when he saw her last.


"See you, Gateau!" Carrot yelled toward his fellow Sorcerer Hunter. "Idiotic
dolt." He mumbled. He turned, and saw Tira two feet away, looking at her feet. She was
the first to talk.

"Guess this is where we part ways, Carrot..." she said shyly. She looked up at
him. He smiled to comfort her.

"Naw, we'll all be together again." She looked down again, but he lifted her head
gently with his finger. "It's fate." He said softly. She smiled, blushing. He walked a bit
closer to her, the link connecting their eyes not breaking for an instant. As their faces
neared, Tira's eyes fluttered shut, her waiting lips parting just a bit, making room for
Carrot's. Suddenly, Carrot was shot down to the ground, and pinned there by something.
"OH, DARLING!" something sobbed. 'Oh, god...' Carrot thought. Tira blushed
profusely and walked away timidly. Carrot watched as she walked away. Then he turned
his attention to the woman on top of him.


'It seems like it's been a millennium!' Carrot thought. "Brother? Brother!"
Marron yelled on the other line. Carrot snapped out of his daydream. "What, Marron?"
he asked. "What were you going to say?" he asked. "Um, nothing. Anyhow, I'm not
going. I've retired from that. I like my job." Carrot lied.
Marron sighed again. "Well, I'm making you. Trust me, Big Mama will not give
us a mission." Carrot moaned. "Fine, fine. But if Chocolate is all over me, I'm giving
you a wedgie." Marron laughed, as did Carrot, and they hung up.
Carrot stumbled over to the mirror. 'God, I've gotta freshen up if I'm going to
see...her..."
