The Poisonous Cup of Tea

A maid shrieked, almost making me drop the vial of antidote. Letting out a sigh, I exited my room and ran down the hall to where the living room is.

Everyone, including Daemon, came running.

"What's wrong?" I asked, tucking the vial into my pocket.

"Alaude-sama is unconscious!" A maid shouted.

Another panicking maid was trying to help an unconscious Alaude up on a couch, but I was busy checking the cup of tea I placed on the coffee table. I rubbed the rim, sighing again as I felt wetness.

Someone drank my cup of tea. And it was poisonous.

The guardians were surrounding Alaude, asking if he was okay and Giotto was checking his temperature, ordering a nearby maid for something.

I pushed Lampo out of the way, seeing that he was being useless, and banged my head on the couch.

"Kamiko, what are you doing?" He asked, but I ignored him.

"Why, Alaude, why? I thought you were smarter than this," I whined, poking his leg. "Couldn't you see the purple smoke that was being emitted from the cup of tea? It's poisonous."

Slowly, Alaude opened his eyes and glared at me. The other guardians glared at me too.

"What?" I asked, frowning. "I was going to give it to Lampo. And the poison won't kill. It just causes a slight fever."

"But worry not!" I said cheerfully, holding up a vial of my blood. Well, used to be part of my blood. "I have a antidote. This is part of my blood that can cure anything. That's why its color is gold. The choice is up to you, Alaude. Do you dare to drink it?"

The grin on my face continues to grow as a maid gave Giotto an icepack and he put it on Alaude's head.

Scowling, he answered with an hn. I gave him a thumbs up and pour some of my blood into a syringe.

"Mufufufufu…" I chuckled with a lopsided grin.

Shoving the sleeves up his arm, I injected the antidote. He closed his eyes again, and fell asleep.

After I was done, I put a bandage on his arm and fixed his sleeves.

"Mufufufufu~ Lampo? Do you want to try my tea?" I asked, shoving the cup of poisonous tea in his face.

He started sweating and ran away.

I snapped my fingers and the cup of tea disappeared.

Glancing at the guardians, I gave them a peace sign and teleported to my room.

The guardians learned something that day.

Never, ever eat anything I offer.

A/N: Well, this one was fun to write, but I think the guardians should talk more. =D
