Well, here's chapter two of my fanfic. I hope you enjoy it...
CHAPTER TWO
"What?!" Boyd whined. "We were just getting started!"
Zihark shrugged. "I didn't think this would be a routine. It was fun the first time, but I don't want to get caught."
"Ohhhh, I see how it is." Boyd remarked knowingly. "YOU'VE got some seeeeeecret secret that you don't want anybody to know about!"
"Um... no." was all the swordmaster could say to Boyd's odd statement.
Boyd... laughed. "Ha. YOU'RE IN DENIAL."
"No, I'm pretty sure I don't have some 'seeeeeecret secret'."
"Riiiiiiiiiiight."
"Exactly my point."
"I still think you're lying..." Boyd muttered.
"I'm not." Zihark argued.
"You are too."
"Am not"
"Are too."
"Am not."
Boyd thought for a second. "Are not."
"Am too--DARN IT BOYD!" Zihark stomped.
"I got yooooouuuu! Now, tell me your secret!" the warrior demanded.
"You mean the one that doesn't exist?" Zihark asked sarcastically.
"YES, I mean the one that doesn't--...LIAR!" Boyd yelled. "Fine, if you won't tell me, then I'll just find out myself!" he turned around and walked off somewhere...some place... who cares?
Boyd poked his head out from behing the door to Mia's room.
"What do you want?" The purple-haired girl asked.
"I'll make it quick and to the point. I need somebody to help me find Zihark's seeeeecret secret." Boyd said as he stepped into the room.
"Why should I help you?" Mia asked while adjusting her shoulder guard.
"Weeeeeeell... I guess... you'll never know his seeeeecreeeet seeeecreeet." the green-haired boy said nonchalantly, rubbing his fingers together in an odd fashion.
"So?"
"Every night, you'll be asking yourself what the secret was. Then it'll haunt you for the rest of your life."
"Um..." Mia glanced around nervously and undecisively.
"YOU JUST HAAAAAVE TO KNOW THE SEEEEECRET SEEEEEEEEECRET!" Boyd said--no, shouted--as Mia began to sweat from anticipation.
"ALL RIGHT! I'LL DO IT!" Mia finally cracked.
"I knew you'd see it my way."
Only, Mia was confused about one liiiiitle, tiiiiny detail. "Um... why do we have to find a 'seeeeeeecret' secret? Why not just a secret?"
"I'm not interested in ordinary secrets! If there are any secret secrets, I have to go and find them! Isn't that more fun?"
"I guess so." Mia agreed.
Boyd peered over Zihark's shoulder. "What'cha doin'?" he asked.
"I'm cleaning my sword." Zihark answered.
Boyd gasped. "WHY? IS IT BECAUSE YOU'VE BEEN... KILLING?"
"Uh, Boyd, we just came back from a battle. Of course I kill people in battle. I HAVE to."
Pulling out a tape recorder, Boyd grinned. He played the recording of Zihark's voice.
"I kill people."
"H-hey!" Zihark grabbed for the tape recorder.
"So..." Boyd began, pulling the recorder out of the swordmaster's reach. "Who did you kill? WAS IT YOUR OWN...FAMILY?"
"I never killed my own family!"
"I kill people. I -static- killed my own family!"
Zihark smashed the tape recorder with his sword. "Take THAT!"
"No, my blackmail!" Boyd yelled, running out into the hall. "I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS! AND I'LL FIND YOUR SECRET! I'M ONTO YOU"
After hearing Boyd scream some more weird things, Jill leaned out into the hall to see what the heck was going on. "Um... what's with you?" she asked as Boyd stormed past.
"Definitelynothingtodowithasupersecresecretthatdoesn'tconcernyou." He said quickly, afraid Jill would 'find what the "secret" was'.
"I don't know what you're talking about..." Jill said, confused.
"GOOD, BECAUSE THIS IS A SERIOUS MATTER THAT DOESN'T CONCERN MORTALS SUCH AS YOURSELF."
"Boyd, I'm pretty sure you're a mortal, too."
"...As far as YOU know..." Boyd replied with shifty eyes.
Now, by this time, Jill had started to become very weirded out. So she walked back into her room, slammed the door, locked it, and crawled underneath her bed. Moving on...
Mia was waiting at the end of the hall for Boyd. "Uh, Boyd, I thought you needed somebody else to help you. Because it just looks like you're wasting my time."
Aaaaand, this is when Boyd tries to make himself look cool and or smart. "Well, maybe it's because you're just to STUPID to do anything, STUPID."
"Okay, you're a retard." Mia left Boyd standing in the hallway by himself. But Boyd had his eyes closed as part of his 'smug' look, so he didn't notice that he was alone until about five minutes later. Idiot. Well, let's skip to...er... dinner?
Boyd sat down at the table next to Ulki, his..."hawk brother". "Hey, Ulki! What's going on?"
"Nothing is going on." Ulki replied blandly. "I hate my life."
"Uh...okay." Boyd nodded, acting like he agreed. I'm starting to feel that Ulki's weirder than Boyd. The green-haired boy looked around the room. "Hey, where are Zihark and Mia?"
Ulki just kept staring at the wall in an emo way, but still replied. "I heard them talking. They said they didn't want to be in the same room as you."
"Oh." Boyd replied, feeling rejected. Well, it was his fault.
There was a silence between the two mercenaries (if you count Ulki as a mercenary, that is) for several mintues.
Then Ulki broke the silence by screaming, "NOBODY UNDERSTAND MY PAAAAAAIN!" he stood up and ran outside.
Everyone looked at Boyd, since he was the only one near Ulki at the time.
"I didn't do anything! He's just stupid!" Boyd protested. But nobody believed Boyd. Why should they? Then Boyd stood up. "FINE, YOU GUYS ARE ALL JERKS!" Then he turned around and ran to his room.
END CHAPTER TWO
Eh, I thought this one was a bit funnier than the last one. I hope you liked it.
