Morning routine: How gold saints spend their morning with Bronzes as disciple?
Aquarius Temple
Hyoga didn't mind Milo had breakfast with them, he really did not mind at all. But even Camus looked a bit disturbed by his best friend. "Milo… I would appreciate it if you turn off that mini stove." Camus muttered coldly.
"Why?"
Hyoga sighed at the umpteenth time Camus trying to convince Milo to stop his habit of eating his food above a stove or using any heating equipment. He even wondered why his master bothered to keep trying. "We are ice saints?" Camus pointed out helpfully.
Milo rolled his eyes, "Nice try snowman… are you gonna melt or something?" He asked with a wide grin on his face.
"Milo…" The Scorpio saint recognized that tone, it was so cold and toneless. But he being Milo the self proclaimed best friend of Aquarius Camus (because Camus never say anything about it) knew that tone so well.
Milo shook his head childishly, "Nah! As if! You do know if I turn off the stove my noodle will be cold by minutes here!"
"It will not!" Camus muttered in annoyed tone.
"It will!"
"Will not!"
"But!"
"It will not…"
"Will not when this temple warming up around ten degrees!"
Camus sighed, "Then eat in your own temple…"
"And miss opportunity to eat together with my best friend and his son? No way!" Milo pouted.
The Aquarius saint just like previous days gave up the idea of convincing Milo to stop using stove of any heating equipment when eating on his temple. He had to admit his noodle was no longer hot and barely warm, but he didn't mind and neither Hyoga since it was everyday occurrence in their temple. From the corner of his eyes he could see Hyoga chuckled softly at them, then send his master a pleading look, undoubtedly to let Milo do as he pleases. He knew better than his disciple when Milo can't get his way, "Whatever… just eat quickly then help me to wash dishes later..."
"Sure thing Snowman~" Milo grinned, the Aquarius saint never can erase that stupid grin because Milo managed to win in stupid argument for the umpteenth time since he became Milo's best friend.
Sagittarius Temple
Seiya loved his master and sister very…. very much, even though Aiolos only had become his master few weeks ago, he considered Aiolos as brother he never had like Aiolia. But still it was not enough to not become annoyed when his blood brother and Seika spend too long for cooking on the kitchen. Since he became Aiolos' disciple, Seika volunteered herself to stay with them as housekeeper, no one objected, as it was obvious she wanted to spend more time with Seiya.
Well… Aiolos was a very charming gentleman and Seika was his sweet sister, it didn't take long for these two to have crush for each other. Seiya didn't mind, Aiolos passed his standard to be Seika's boyfriend by miles away. Seiya sighed as waiting for them to finish on the dining table he had arranged neatly with eating implements, since he knew next to nothing about cooking he leave it to Aiolos and Seika.
Clank!
"Oh…. I am sorry Aiolos-san!" Seika stammered.
"No… it's my fault…" Aiolos said nervously.
Even though he couldn't see it Seiya can imagine what happened on the kitchen, one of them handed something to their counterpart then their fingers accidentally brushed with each other, then they dropped the item out of shock. It happened almost everyday… The Pegasus saint knew Aiolia despite of his brave personality was very timid and shy when it comes to Marin, his mentor and blood sister. And it didn't take him long to figure out that Aiolos had the same problem when it comes to Seika… With these timid saints as their boyfriend Seiya can safely bet it would take few weeks for them to hold his sister's hand, at least one month before they can kiss cheek, and so on… and none of his brothers managed to have enough courage to court his sisters formally.
"Uhm… let me do it Seika…" Came Aiolos' voice from the kitchen.
"It's okay! I can do it… just sit down Aiolos-san…"
Aiolos had not given up, "I insist."
And the fact Seika was a timid girl unlike Marin just made no progress, even baby step was too fast to describe it. Seiya was content with the romance that's going on between his brothers and sisters, he was really didn't mind at all. If there was anything he mind about it… he hoped they can finish soon because his stomach was growling for food, and it happened every morning because Seika and Aiolos' morning routine in the kitchen. Maybe they should take turn for cooking… yep! It would save him a lot of trouble~ and hunger~ growl…
"I am hungry…" He muttered weakly.
Libra temple
As usual Shiryu and Dohko was doing their morning training which consist of warm ups, well warming up in their standard. After sweat drenched their muscular body they proceeded to enter the Libra temple's dining room which smelled delicious of Shunrei's special pork conge. But soon before they managed to sit the Chinese girl greeted them with a glare.
"Shunrei?" Shiryu gulped, aware of what her glare could mean.
Shunrei didn't say anything but pointing at bathroom, "Out… no one get breakfast before you get rid of dirt and sweat you got from training!"
"Can't we just wipe it with towel?" Dohko asked, he was so hungry after all.
"Nice try Roushi… bit I don't like to have breakfast with smelly guys… even if they are my boyfriend and father~" Shunrei replied as crossed her arms. "So… just go take a bath or else~"
Then they reluctantly obliged to her command much to her chagrin, after a while on the shower Dohko called his disciple, "Is it just me or Shunrei become more and more like a mother since we brought her to sanctuary?"
Shiryu shrugged, "Some women I know liked to control men, like Saori-ojousan… Shaina or Marin as example. Shunrei was not like that but it seems she is losing her patience with us for always leaving her then return with some nasty injury…"
"Us? From what I recalled you are the one who always return with nasty injury to her." Dohko pointed out helpfully.
Shiryu rolled his eyes, "But Roushi is the one who leave her once and return with news you are young again, died once and alive again~" He countered.
"I didn't choose that condition upon me…"
"Neither I did ROushi…" Shiryu countered.
"By the way Shiryu…" Dohko began.
Shiryu raised an eyebrow, "Yes?"
"Why you still call me Roushi (old master) when I was no longer old?"
Shiryu gave his master a look that said 'uh huh' and sighed, "You may appear young Roushi but… you still have lived for around… 2XX years old ne?"
Roushi pondered his disciple's word for a moment, "You have a point there… but since I revived from death and young again (in looks) can you call me master? I miss being young in this youthful body…"
Shiryu rolled his eyes, "Whatever master~"
Dohko beamed at that, "That's my disciple!"
Virgo Temple
Morning meditation was the first activity Shaka and Shun did in the morning after taking a bath, so far as usual Virgo was the most quiet temple in the morning. Unfortunately since Shun became his disciple sometimes Virgo temple might become the noisiest temple ever. Off course it was not exactly Shun's fault, after all from all bronze boys who had no master, Shun was polite and calm compared to his brothers. Shaka himself had to admit he was very lucky, but Shun's presence in Virgo temple attracted many noisy people.
"This soup is superb Shun!" Aphrodite praised. "But you should put some meat into it next time."
"I am a vegetarian Aphrodite…" Shaka pointed out calmly.
Aphrodite huffed, "Doesn't mean your disciple have to cook everything according to your taste." He said as munched on croissant the Virgos served with soup. "This one tasted like bought from bakery! It's so delicious!"
Shun blushed, "Thank you Aphrodite-san… but the soup is my master's cooking." He pointed out cheerfully.
Aphrodite gaped as the half eaten croissant hanging halfway to his mouth, "I don't know you can cook?" He muttered in disbelief, "As you never have anyone to cook for you, I though you live with eating fruits and vegetable!"
Shaka rolled his eyes beneath the eyelids, "What are you taking me? A deer? A goat? A ram?"
"The last two animals you mentioned might hurt Shura's and Mu's feeling." Aphrodite pointed out teasingly, especially since Mu was Shaka's best friend other than Aiolia. Till now Aphrodite was still confused of how on earth Shaka the dignified monk of sanctuary could become Aiolia's best friend, a fiery lion.
"Anyway… Aphrodite, I don't like to be impolite. But you come to my temple at least four times a week for eating with us… uninvited." He stressed the last part.
"I like to spend times with your cute disciple," Was Aphrodite's oh, so wise reply.
…..silence…. chirp chirp~
At first instinct Shaka had as a master which budding to fatherhood, the Virgo saint dragged his disciple to his back as sending murderous aura to the Pisces saint. Shaka had many disciples in the past which in any rate had been graduated from his guidance, including Shiva and Agora, if asked why he stopped teaching them simply because none of them had potential to improve more under him, they can but not with him. But Shun was different; he had to admit almost killed Shun twice might have something to do with protectiveness that grew within him, he really fond of his disciple and would not let anyone harm Shun even without Ikki's threat hanging above his head.
"Aphrodite…" Shaka began, he was almost raised his voice at the Pisces. "Are you implying something? He asked coolly.
The Swedish gentleman grinned mischievously, what he might be able to do if he got this right can put Milo the king of prankster in shame! Just imagine! He can make fun of Shaka, the closest man to God! "Well… maybe…" He said as twirled his turquoise hair.
Shaka paled at Aphrodite's word, in the other hand the fair saint was congratulating himself for the greatest prank ever pulled in sanctuary. WHY? Because Virgo Shaka was someone that even Milo never able to touch in his two decades of existence, Shaka was extremely sensitive with other's presence as his senses were so much sharper than theirs. Sneaking around Shaka was almost impossible and head on was suicidal.
"Aphrodite…" Shaka warned.
"You know Shaka? Another doting master like Camus is too much for sanctuary, let your disciple decide by himself, will you?" The said saints smiled seductively at Virgo's disciple, ignoring killing intent that came from Shaka. "Ne~ Shun, do you like me?"
Shun being the purest soul on earth that worthy became Hades' vessel without thinking twice replied, "Yes… off course, you are a very interesting person Aphrodite-san." He even returned Aphrodite's smile with his gentle one, the innocent boy even didn't notice the meaning of Pisces' smile.
"See?" Aphrodite grinned.
"WHAT THE BEEEP BEEP BEEP HAPPENS HERE YOU BEEP BUDDHA!" Ikki roared angrily.
Shun blinked at his brother who in the morning had came so early to Virgo temple, "Since when you…?"
Ikki cut him in, "Since that fishy transvestite asked if you like him! And you!" He said as pointed to Shaka, "I can't believe you let that rosy guy near my brother!"
"Who are you called fishy transvestite?" Aphrodite growled, his joy of toying with Shaka was completely forgotten.
"Ikki… such disgraceful words you used to refer me with…" He commented in annoyance, "I recommend you to return to Leo before I decide to take your voice forever this time!" Shaka threatened as pulling his rosary out of his palm.
The phoenix saint snorted, "What the hell are you teaching my brother, reading sutra and yoga? Or that stupid trick puling out rosary from your palms?" Ikki asked incredulously. "Why don't you pulling out bunny instead, mister magician?"
"Woi! Are you ignoring me Phoenix?" Aphrodite growled, he was used to be center of attention because of his beauty, being ignored was an insult for him.
Ikki snarled, "And you… stay away from my brother!"
"Nii-san! Please don't be so rude to my master and Aphrodite-san!" Shun pleaded.
Ikki groaned, not another etiquette lesson from his brother… the damn monk was really strict with manner and his baby brother was so quick to take after Shaka, damn Virgos~ "Seriously brother… one of these days you will send me to *beep* etiquette class!"
Shun rolled his eyes, " Well… you sounded like you need it brother. And it's not like I dislike you visiting me but your visit frequency is simply ridiculous brother, our temple is only one stairway distance!" The frequency Ikki came to Virgo was at least twice a day.
"No… I am not! Beside… I have to make sure you are not corrupted by Shaka… and that fishy transvestite!" He said as pointed at furious Aphrodite.
"What did you call me Phoenix? Do you want me to make a swiss cheese out of you with this?" Aphrodite growled as took out his piranha rose.
As usual when it came to a challenge Ikki would never back down, "Bring it on fishy boy!"
"IKKI! So you are here AGAIN?" Aiolia screamed in anger till his scream echoed in Virgo temple, yes… Aiolia was screaming, not a typo. He might can match screaming banshee since his stress level was high, since he (involuntarily) took Ikki as disciple Aiolia became more and more emotional. That happened when your disciple gone to who knows where everyday, underestimating your teaching and look down upon you, not to mention his manner was downright horrible. "May I remind you that we suppose to have breakfast half an hour ago! But you are GONE AGAIN for the seventeenth time this week!"
Shaka and Shun sweat dropped, "He keeps a record?"
Ikki groaned, "I am busy you love-sick kitty!"
"What you called me?" The Leo saint roared.
"I called you love-sick kitty who despite being one of the gold saint have no guts to ask an Amazon for dinner… not to mention how many times you canceled restaurant reservation you…" Ikki trailed off but stopped by AIolia who covered his mouth as hushed him.
"How?"
"I live with you remember?" Ikki pointed out lazily.
Aiolia blushed as groaned; "I will remember you live with me if you spend time in Leo more than just for sleeping!"
"But I don't need it!" Ikki objected.
"Sorry to disturb your master-disciple drama, but I totally need blood out of that fire birdy!" Aphrodite growled as took out her white rose.
"Being it on rosy boy!" Ikki challenged.
"I am 22 years old not boy, you are!" Aphrodite growled at the Phoenix saint.
"I am not finish yet with my disciple Aphrodite!"
"Who care?"
"You should!
"Damn stupid you two…"
"Shut up!"
Crack crack~
The three arguing saints stopped as wondering what was that sound, but when they turned to the source they might reconsider that Hades was scariest existence they ever face in their life. Shun was doing perfect imitation of his teacher as both of the cracking their knuckles, and his charming smile perfectly in place. The horror doubled when they saw Shaka's blue orbs were opened, and both Virgos were smiling at their prey.
"You know…?" Shaka began slowly, "I have been holding back my wrath for a while, but it seems let myself loose once in a while is a very tempting idea… you noisy bunch."
Instinctively the three turned to Shun, hoping the Andromeda saint would help them but crackling sound of his chains that sounded like funeral bell told them otherwise. "I don't like to use violence but we all know sometimes it can solve problem faster than anything else…"
Aphrodite took a step back, "Aww… remember you two… you are Buddha reincarnation and Shun, you are the purest soul on earth remember?" The Leos nodded in agreement.
Shaka if possible just looked more menacing than ever, "And who said Buddha have limitless patience?" He asked back.
"And who said purest soul mean I can't be angry?" Shun added.
"You are angry?" Ikki asked in disbelief.
Shun nodded as smiled his veins were popping all over her fair face, "I do, especially to you brother… you stormed to Virgo, yelling curse to my master, then you were arguing and almost fighting in our house."
"Shaka… calm down buddy, I admit I am wrong but… I am your friend ne?" Aiolia drawled nervously.
The Virgo saint fingered beads of his rosary carefully as locked his gaze at the Leo saint, "Keep sputtering lame excuse monkeys… none of it can save you from our wrath…"
"Just stay still… and it would pass very quickly…" Shun said almost singing, stretching his silver chains and his cosmos covering it in pink glow.
The Pisces, Leo and Phoenix for a brief second swore they saw blue skinned Buddha with scary face behind Shaka, and behind Shun off course was their nemesis, Hades the god of underworld. It was not long for the three to decide what to do as they sprinted to the exit of Virgo temple.
Taurus temple
"Yummy!" Kiki cheered as took a bite of omelet Aldebaran cooked for him. Then he caught a fascinating sight from the corner of his eyes, there was blinding flash of pink and gold from Virgo. "Master Mu! Look!" He said as pointed at Virgo temple.
The Aries and Taurus looked at where Kiki was pointing at, "What the?" Taurus muttered in disbelief. "Mu, do you have any idea?"
Mu's eyes were wide in disbelief, "Not really, but I feel our Virgos explode their cosmos."
"Shun and Shaka? What happened to them? From what I see it was obvious they throw a tantrum!" Aldebaran stated in disbelief. "You know those two… not a type who could be angered easily."
"I also feel Aphrodite's, Aiolia's and Ikki's cosmos in Virgo, but I can tell they are running with high speed to Leo by now." Mu concluded, "Shaka and Shun must have scared a hell out of them."
Aldebaran nodded, "I guess… wonder what they do?"
"Morning routine… I guess."
Review please!
