A/N: This is my first fanfiction! I'm terribly bad at fictional writing, and much prefer formal. Even if that is so, one must challenge their weaknesses to be successful. At the moment, that is what I am doing. Hopefully, this fanfiction of Tales of Xillia entertains you.
The White Throne:
Cursing the sky as much as Jude curse his lack of luck, he stared at the burning fire clutching his empty stomach. He had asked Millia over and over again to cook something or to open the food inventory so he could eat something- he even tried to take an Apple Gel to satisfy his hungry needs, but Milla just said, "No." One may ask, "Why?" but Jude is as lost in the question as you. Jude fisted his shirt more tightly as another loud grumble came from his stomach, followed by the sharp pain of hunger. Jude wondered why Millia would do such a thing. She even stared at Jude while she stuffed her face with food, Is this another way of inhumanely torturing someone? Jude thought. He felt like his body was trying to eat itself, tearing at his insides.
"Hey Honour Student," called Alvin emerging from the "pee-bush" picking food out of his teeth.
"What?" Jude called back
"Want some food?," Alvin asked mockingly
"No"
"Why? Is little Judy trying to loose weight for Milla?"
Jude shook his head, "It's not for Millia it's because of Milla." Jude gestured towards Millia who was sleeping soundly on the ground beside the fire. Alvin chuckled and gave Jude a light pat on the back before he left for sleep. Jude gave a depressed sigh. He couldn't sleep, not with this hunger. He didn't even need something that would satisfy it any more, just anything that would stop this tearing pain in his stomach. He needed something small-but not from that bag. The last thing Jude wanted was for Millia to use a fire arte on him. He looked around the area surveying the bushed and looking for any fruit on it. Yes, he needed something that would slack the hunger-nothing more, nothing less.
Swiftly and quietly as a fox, Jude dashed to the nearest bush that had what seemed like fruit. He quickly tugged at it and threw it into his mouth, chewing quickly. It felt hairy and was squishy, Peach, it's a peach Jude thought. After a few moments of chewing, Jude quickly looked back to the sound of moving bodies. It seems that he had awaken Millia to the sound of his chewing.
"Jude, what are you doing," she asked sleepily.
Jude pushed the food to the side of his mouth and tried to speak as clearly as possible, "I just..er, found a monster here...well, I thought."
"Jude," Millia said firmly "are you eating something?"
Oh great. Jude thought. Even though he didn't know why Millia didn't want him to eat, the tone of her voice screamed "pissed-off." He could only now pray that she wouldn't drown him in a bubble with Undine again.
"Okay then," the mumbled "this is probably a sensitive topic for you to not be talking. Please take your time to dislodge body waste."
Millia rested her head back onto her hands and after a few, a gentle snore escaped from her mouth, signifying deep sleep. Jude gave a sigh of relief before he swallowed the piece of food, filling him completely.
