Well this'll be the first Fic I put up here ^_^ Hopefully more'll follow, but until then enjoy!
The lord beast master, Juu-ou, had noticed a marked change in her favorite servant lately. For some reason carefully kept secret, Xelloss was acting in a way, that if it wasn't highly unlikey for MaZoku to be, Zellas would have sworn he was ill.
What perplexed her further was the disappearences. She didn't normally check on or care about where her priest-general had gone, or what he was doing there, since it was usually never that far away or concerning.
So far that morning she'd yelled three times for him, and she frowned as she come to the conclusion that was becoming a bit of a habit.
And as she could also fairly predict from the last few weeks he'd turn up sometime later seeming a bit drained and acting distant.
What she'd been calling him for originally had slipped her mind, but she decided on a much more important reason, if only to justify her sudden lapse in memory.
"Well..." She murmered lowly and smoothly as he eventually materialised. "I'm glad you decided to grace me with your presence at very long last."
"Gomenaisai Juu-o. . ." He started, bowing slightly, but seemed to think that was a bad idea as his balance appeared to be terrible.
Zellas was amused at this, and took a mental note to check the contents of cellar later, just in case. However keeping her stern and now piercing glare fixed,
"where have you been?" Her soft lilting voice masked her anger from all but the queasy looking Xelloss in front of her, who had already detected the danger behind the question. Before he had time to give any sort of reason, she leapt in unexpectedly with something far worse.
"I can't help noticing, there's something odd about you lately."
He glanced up at her slightly, but didn't move.
Just like a trapped Animal, She thought and that was all the evidence she needed to confirm her suspicions.
"As you are at the moment, you're just about useless to me. And I can't have that, can I?" She didn't even pause for an answer, but just long enough to take a drag from her cigarette. "Something isn't right here. So perhaps you should have some time off?"
"There's nothing wrong with me." Xelloss' face changed back to his trademark smile. "you don't have anything to worry about I just..."
"don't have the strength to stand up on your own feet anymore?"
There was no arguing here. Xelloss obediently turned and left hurriedly, smiling a little in a way that looked almost convincing
