THE LITTLE GESTURES::

Chapter 1:The change

It was just the other day that the nasty and selfish brat was running after Yurri and threatening to scorch him with his golden lion flame, when a sudden noise from the western side of the castle, brought everything and everyone to a halt. A bright blue smoke could be seen coming out from the royal bed chamber.

Every one suspected that Yuuri had been burnt alive by Wolfram. But, the castle people were much relieved to find their precious double black running towards his bedroom door.

Conrad however was then currently on Border patrol and had been unable to witness this rather peculiar incident. Gwendal and Gunter were also standing outside the room with their swords unsheathed in case of an emergency and Yozak was also standing close by with his knife held in his right hand.

They were preparing to break the door and storm into the room when they all heard a creaking sound, like someone was trying to undo the lock. The handle was turning on its own and the door slit open in a flash.

Wolfram immediately took stance in front of Yuuri so as to protect him with his own life.

The door slid a bit more and more of the blue smoke came pouring out! Tears leaked out from the corner of their eyes as the smoke hit them and out of the door emerged a little furry black puppy.

No sooner, did he set his paws out, than a blurred THOP!! sound was heard.

Wolfram turned around to see that Yuuri had already fainted and was lying on the floor with glassy eyes. Everyone rushed to the aid of their King, the puppy forgotten by all. Wolfram tried to shake Yuuri awake but to no avail.

Gisela was already on her way to the royal bed chambers with her medical kit.

In the mean time the puppy, which was currently standing beside the fallen Yuuri had started to bark very loudly as if to remind everyone of its presence.

Gisela placed a hand on Yuuri s forehead to feel his temperature and reported to every one after checking his body with a magical green glow of her hand, that " I can t see what s wrong with his Majesty!!! It's as if his soul has left him and I also can t detect his heart beat!!"

As soon as she declared this, sounds of "WHAT!!??" and "HUH??" could be heard from every one. Meanwhile, the puppy, felt that it was ignored for long and suddenly went up to Wolfram and started to tug fiercely at his trouser ends.

Wolfram got alarmed and tried to shake off the puppy " Hey! Get off me you little insect! Oh my, it s gonna bite me! Somebody get this thing off of me!! I have to save Yuuri!".

Gwendal, however, having an extremely soft spot for cute little things, found the little puppy adorable and reached out and picked up the puppy by its neck.

The puppy, stared at him with its puppy dog eyes, as if to tell him that it meant no harm and somehow Gwendal seemed to have caught onto the message.

He then stepped up and turned towards every one and announced " I am taking the puppy to my study for interrogation and if anyone wants to join may do so provide they do not interfere with my work. And as for his Majesty, - Gisela, prepare to take his highness to the infirmary and inspect him. I want you to report to me as soon as you've found any valuable information regarding his majesty's health. And as for the rest of you, get back and resume your respected duties and Gunter, inform Annisina of his majesty s condition and ask her to prepare the artificial-living-and-breathing-instrument-kun as soon as possible in order to preserve his majesty s body. As for you Wolfram, you are going to join me in the interrogation".

But Wolfram, protested vehemently, "No, brother, I want to stay with Yuuri and he needs to see me when he wakes up! I know that he is still alive!".

" No Wolfram, I will not have it! You are to accompany me, and you are to come with me now!! And not one more word from you! And before I forget, please someone inform his eminence and lady Ulrike about this sudden turn of events!".
