Disclaimer: If it were, wouldn't the pairing be obvious?
Notes: I don't really think there're really spoilers? Pre-game/before Luke & Company. I did my best to keep them in character but it might be a little OOC… Third person focused on Anise. Short chapter.
I doing my very best on this fic. ;o; Though, there might be some mistakes in it as well…

Pairing: Sync/Anise
Genre: Romance & Humor ; K+
Summary: A simple task, only soon, the package gets stolen; almost catching the thieves but only to bump into someone while they make the getaway. Conclusion? A very angry girl forcing a very unwilling boy to get the item back. Sync × Anise ;; Three-shot

Oh, by the way, Sakura Moon and I created a SynAni collaboration FF account and LJ comm.; the links are on my profile, the rules and info is all there if you want to know more.

Anyways: Pfft, I think the summary's way better than the actual story… Yet I did my very best on everything! 8D

Please REVIEW and tell me what you think! It'd mean very much to me!


. : Errand : .
Part One: Start

She sighed. Her day off, free from her duties for the day of a Fon Master Guardian – yet here she was, running an errand where she would be spending the time for herself, excluding the parts making sure her mama and papa don't get scammed again of course. What a way to spend one's break.

It was a simple task: get the requested item and give it to Legretta – items if you include the Miracle Gels. She didn't want to do it, but she had no choice.

Everyone's busy, Legretta said. You have the day off, correct? I want you to stop by the shop to get the Commandant's item then return to give them to me.

Erm, she began.

She shook herself out of the memory not wanting to relive the long lecture Legretta gave her when she merely uttered a word; clearly the Major was not in a good mood. She grumbled to herself, taking her time walking to the shop.

She looked around the selections once she entered the store, locating the item near the line of weapons. She took it, letting the owner slide the sharp metal in a protective sheathe after she paid for it with the bulky bag full of gald given to her by Legretta. She walked out to get the Miracle gels in the shop next to the one she had been in.

"Okay!" She said to herself; she clutched the items to her body, the sword half-cradled in an arm. The blade wasn't heavy but its weight didn't lower to a comfortable level. Nonetheless, she gotten the items requested, now all she needed to do was give them to the Major then it was time to get some gald! – a secret side job she usually did now and then.

Her footsteps were quicker then earlier, as quick as they could go with the few pounds of metal in her arm. The quicker it got there, the more time of her day off she'd be saving – she should have done that sooner…

"Kyaaa!"

She automatically turned to the sudden cry, "Hm?" She turned just to see some figure rush past her and yank the blade – with the gels tied to it in a small bag – out of her arms. She whirled to the running shape that had the sword she was suppose to give to Legretta.

"Get back here!" She yelled, running after the thief in anger. This person had guts stealing in broad daylight and from her, Anise Tatlin – Fon Master Guardian. She picked up her speed as people moved out of the way seeing a chase. Where were the darn Oracle Knights when you need them? These people weren't any help either.

Just a little closer… She thought as they turned a sharp corner.

Bam!

She collided into something and lost her footing, falling onto her bottom. "Oww…" She winced. "That really hurt!" She instantly remembered the thief, her head snapping up to see him speed away with another person joining him. The items she had spent her precious vacation time to get…

Her eyes were then drawn to the thing – person she had crashed into; she glowered in recognition, gritting her teeth, "Sync."

There, knocked to the floor in a similar position that she was in was the masked God-General. "Tch," the boy uttered, recognizing his crasher as well. He sneered, "Anise."

He got up, dusting himself off and then looked down at her, "Watch where you're going, little girl."

Her anger grew; she hopped to her feet, "You!" She burst, taking a step closer to him. "Stupid Sync, you made me lose that stupid thief!!!"

"Ch," he said. "What are you talking about?"

Her face felt red from running, frustration, and now, as he observed her, dawning embarrassment. She saw a smirk tug at his lips – the only place where the mask didn't cover – as he put pieces together. "You got robbed?" He snickered which made her forget the brief moment of mortification and made her anger flame. She had a feeling he'd know right away she wasn't chasing a thief for the good of it. She felt like throwing a tantrum, but that was too childish. "That person that ran past here robbed you?"

Cool, Anise, cool. She told herself.

She felt his smugness grow, "How dumb are you to get robbed?"

Her arm lashed out like a viper, her hand grabbing the collar of his uniform and yanked him to her height; the action caught him off guard for a moment. She lifted her head to look at him, "Sync," she said ever too sweetly, a cold smile appearing on her mouth – too bad the mask covered his face and expressions; she would have loved to see the look on his face. "Won't you help me find that thief?"

There were seconds of silence before she received the obvious reply, "No." He said, and from his tone, through gritted teeth. He scoffed and then smirked again. "Why should I help a bratty little girl like you?"

More oil to the fire: her smile grew colder and much sweeter looking, the hold on the fabric covering his neck grew tighter, "You are going to help me get the item back," she answered her voice like ice, "this is all your fault."

"My fault?" He snorted in bewilderment. "You're the one who got robbed in the first place. It's your fault."

"But you're the one who got in my way, stopping at a corner turn," she countered. "You're the cause of me losing that thief."

"That gives me no reason to help you," Sync stated, trying to make her release the collar of his uniform with a hand.

Her grip didn't loosen and suddenly gave a glare that would make anyone freeze; she couldn't tell from his expression but from what she could tell by his momentarily motionless hand, she had stopped him for a second. "You will help me," she said, "won't you, Sync?"

"No," was all she received.

"I'll take that mask of yours off," she threatened.

He scoffed, "I'd like to see you try."

That won't work huh? "Then I'll just tell the Major you let the thief with the Commandant's weapon get away." She would most likely get yelled at too but she was going to bring him down along with her – one way or another.

He seemed to pause at that, "… Ch." Jackpot! She quickly triumphed. To think he's afraid of Legretta's wrath as well… "That a yes?" She sang.

"Ch."

"Good!" She cheered. "Now, if I let you go you won't run away?"

"Who says I wouldn't?" He asked through clenched teeth.

She grinned, "Then I'll have to resort to this." She let go of his uniform – only to lock her arm around his. "Don't you try to run~" She sang.

He growled, "Let go."

"No," she smiled triumphantly to get on his nerves. He cursed; she ignored him. "Shall we go?"

He snorted, apparently gathering his cool, "Conning little girl."

Her anger boiled again. She did not like being called 'little'. "I'm not little," she seethed, "you stupid, stuck-up bastard." Her words didn't seem to faze him much.

"Really? – you sure look little," he sneered. She jerked him forward, pulling on his entrapped arm, "Let's go." She snapped, half dragging him while he resisted because he did not want to help.

"Heh," he smirked. She glowered. He gave a smug smile knowing he found a button to push, "A little brat that is."

When this was over, she was going to strangle him.


…… It's so fun making Sync and Anise fight~ cB

Since I'm a bit stuck at one part (even though my twinnie gave me a wonderful idea!), I decided to split the story up so I can meet my deadline (I'm so smart cB tee hee). I didn't want to delay it too long since this thing has been sitting in my folder since – what? – February/March? LOL and since the TOA fandom is slowly dwindling…

I just wanted to offer another (and absolutely MUCH better than my other fic) contribute to the SynAni pair ;D for the world! There really needs to be more SynAni fics, come on! I demand you to contribute to the pairing (I want to read too you know ; o ;) I'm deprived of the fics!

Ah, I did my best! So please REVIEW! and tell me what you think. I'll be really happy to see your opinion of Errand.

You know you want the next chapter ;DD … Don't you?

Please and thank you!
