"This is your fault!" Yells Rogue, his ruby red eyes looking strongly into my sapphire blue ones.
"Rogue! I didn't do anything it was you!" I yell back, looking just as strongly into his eyes. That's when the sound of foot steps appears beside us, so who else is joining this little argument? I think to myself.
"Sting, even though Rogue and yourself are still partners and all, shouldn't you do some, you know, Guild Master work?" My sapphire blue eyes quickly glance to the side to catch a small smile on Rufus Lore's face as he speaks calmly. Get out of this Rufus! This is between Rogue and I! My mind yells, sadly only I hear my thoughts, or is that a good thing?
Rogue gets a small little barely noticeable smile before speaking. "Sting for once maybe listen to Rufus, doing some paperwork may make you realize that it was YOUR FAULT!" Those few words that my partner says brings anger flooding through me.
My eyes narrow, with a calm low steady voice I speak back to Rogue. "Rogue, that was really low, take back those words now" within my head this argument hadn't even lasted a minute but now this unneeded argument is taking over five.
Ruby eyes roll before a sign escapes Rogue's cute lips, wait cute! Sting what the hell man! "Fine, I take back what I said before, but you should really go do some work, you wouldn't want it to pile up to high." Rogue says annoyed. You know what? I will go do work, so I can also get my crazy thoughts straight. With that idea in mind my eyes glide over from ruby to look at the wooden staircase that leads up to the Guild Master's Office.
With a huff, I push past both Rogue and Rufus and make my way up the staircase. "So much work" I mutter to myself with a sign. After what seems like ten minutes I finally reach the oak door, reaching out to grasp the handle with my left gloved hand a voice reaches me from behind.
"Sting, we need to talk about your little argument with Rogue" Rufus says calmly. Opening the door my sapphire eyes catch the sight of a small pile of paperwork set neatly upon my desk.
"Take a seat, we'll talk as I do the paperwork" my voice is calm and doesn't sound stressed out, luckily.
Walking to the desk I pull out a spare chair and do a little bow like action to signal that Rufus my sit down. Dark green eyes look towards the chair before Rufus does indeed take a seat. "So we need to talk" he repeats.
My eyes roll as I grab a pencil and sit down across from the memory mage, my sapphire blue eyes looking down at the first page of work.
This damage will cost 100$ A sign escapes my mouth. "I'm going to help Rogue fall in love with you" my eyes widen. Did he just say love?
"My mind must be pulling tricks on me Rufus, I believe you said you want to make Rogue love me" my voice is calm, I look into dark green eyes.
"Sting you haven't heard wrong, my plan is indeed to make Rogue love you" Rogue love me! That's crazy talk! My mind shouts as a laugh starts to emerge from my mouth.
Now I'm laughing so hard that my stomach is hurting. "That's a good one Rufus, oh I really needed that laugh there thanks" my voice is now higher in pitch from my laughter, I wipe a small tear from my eye only to notice Rufus isn't looking happy at all. He looks pure mad! "Rufus?" I question.
Said mage stands up still looking really mad. "Sting I wasn't joking around, I'm going to make Stingue real" what the heck is Stingue? Getting up from my comfy seat my eyes stay on Rufus.
"Memory make" Rufus starts to say and on reflex I pounce. Leaping onto Rufus his red hat falls to the floor and as my legs wrap around his neck. My face now hold a look of confusion as I hold the other mage hostage. "Gender flip!" Dark green eyes look happy as I realize he used his spell!
Pushing me off of him with strengths I didn't know he possessed a smile is on his lips. "What did you do!" I yell. The only reply the mage before me gives is a small hand wave.
"Have fun" he says cheerfully as he walks out of the room. With aggravation a sign again falls from my lips.
"Whatever" my voice is a mutter again "I'll just work on my Guild Master stuff." With that thought I sit back down at my desk and re-grab my pencil only to realize that the neat pile is now a mess. "Damit! Stupid leap messed it up" my complain goes heard by only my ears as a tingle starts to grow within my gut. "Heck?" I question aloud, my gloved hands reach down to my pants and the feeling increases.
"Nerves that's what it is?" My voice is now nervous "ya it's just nerves" I continue to say as the feeling increases more. To try and calm down I rub my face on the fur of my blue jacket, it doesn't work the feeling gets even more unbearable. Now I run my hands through my hair as I get up and walk towards the Guild Master's Bed.
"Wait when was there a bed here?" I question aloud as the tingle now turns to an unbearable pain. A yell of pain escapes my mouth as I tumble to the floor. "Crap it hearts man" my grumble is low barely audible. My sapphire eyes start feeling heavy as well as the pain that keeps growing with every second. My eyes catch a quick glimpse of the room door opening, thats when I push myself under the bed. Better not be found so weak.
"Sting!" Rogue's voice sounds worried and in fear as my eyes grow even more heavy and the pain grows even more.
"Rogue down hear" I mutter then immediately regret my decision to speak. I didn't want to be found that's why I'm under hear, Sting! You! Idiot! I yell within my mind. The last thing my blue eyes catch are ruby eyes full of concern looking at me. Then black falls and the pain falls away with it.
