DISCLAIMER: They are not mine, you know it.

Author Notes: English is not my mother language, sorry for the mistakes. This is a total A/U. Cleo and Azalie aren't even existing. Magik is studding at the Tower of Fang  where Orphen (Yes, that's his name no Kirlancelo), Hartia and Lai are advance students under the teaching of Childman and the three are best friends. Warning: this is Yaoi, for Hartia and Lai are lovers.

PLEASE REVIEW I will really appreciate it. If you are a fanfic writer  you know what a review means. So please do it.

Chapter I

            Childman walked silently through the corridors of the dorms, elegant and powerful as always, his mere presence imposing. It was dawn and the weather was cold and windy, everything was in silence and his steps could be heard like a far away echo. He stepped in front of one door and knocked, then he entered. And immediately he facefaulted.

"What are you doing still asleep!" he shouted walking to the bed and pushing the covers of the body who laid peacefully asleep. Orphen moaned and tried to get the covers back

"Get up now!" This time Orphen jumped

"What? Where? How? Damn... good morning master"

"You were supposed to met me at the Tower's front door before dawn. What are doing still sleeping?"

"Didn't Hartia show up?" asked Orphen

"I asked YOU to come to collect herbs, not him. He has another tasks"

"We changed. He will go and help you collect herbs and I was going to catalog your books"

"I just can't believe it! How many times have I told you three that you can't change your tasks whenever you want? I assign the activities according my judgment of your studies. I want to see you in five minutes on the Tower's front door, so you better started dressing" he exited the room murmuring "if Hartia doesn't take Lai's place he takes Orphen's, if Orphen doesn't take Hartia's place he takes Lai's and if Lai doesn't take Hartia's place he takes Orphen's, it's like a game by the Heavenly ones!" Orphen didn't have time to said nothing

            *****

            Hartia was holding close the smaller body of Lai. They were sleeping in the red hair room, a floor above Orphen's, so they didn't hear the shouts of their master.

            When the Sun was already in the sky with a pale yellow, but indicating that it was far past dawn Lai woke up and turned to kiss his love, Hartia moaned and opened his eyes

"Hi there" Lai smiled

"Morning" answered Hartia and again they kissed. When they broke the tender kiss, Lai went out of the bed, a chill made him tremble

"It's really cold today" he said

"Then return here, The bed is still warm" Hartia smiled tenderly, Lai laughed

"I'll love to, but I'm afraid I can't. I have an exam in an hour and I really can't be late"

"Damn!"

"What's the matter?"

"I just remember I promised Orphen to take his place today at dawn"

"Well, I'm afraid it's past dawn"

"He will be in a very bad mood"

"It's not rare. Anyway, why did he need you to take his place?"

"So he could wake up later, he were going to play jokes till night to that couple of trolls who are camping in the surroundings of the Tower"

"Again?" said Lai raising an eyebrow while he and Hartia were dressing "The elders had said that they weren't trouble, even if they want to know our secretes"

"it's strange, don't you think?"

"Yes, it's unusual, but I think the elders are planning to do something with them"

"like what?"

"no idea, but as soon I find it out, I will tell you"

"I think they won't going to survive much longer if Orphen keeps bothering them" they laughed and went out of the dorms

"Well, good luck" Hartia said

"Good day" Lai answered. Orphen was the only one who knew about their relation, for the tree were best friends, and they knew Childman suspected something, but he wasn't very sure about it. And for the rest of the Tower, there were rumors, but nothing sure. So they repress the desire of kissing again and each one parted to their respective activities.
