Author Note: Ok so...how many of you want to stab me with knives, sharp pointy knives, that burn with the flames of a thousand evils? I'm sure there's a lot of you. I have only procrastination and my own indecisiveness to blame for this story being delayed so long. This chapter is short which is because I really wasn't sure if I should include Yullian or not since I have excluded Doll. But I decided that I liked her relationship with Wolf enough to include and seeing as she kind of falls to the background anyway, keeping her in the story won't be too difficult.

I'm more than likely going to make the pairing a Prince/Dictator of Life pairing but its still up in the air because though Wicked will still have a crush on Prince since its part of the cannon I'm keeping, Dictator of Life doesn't appear till much later in the story (though he may appear earlier in my story). So there's time for me to finalize the pairing.

So here's to hoping the next one won't take two years...

Dedicated to Kai19 who's resent PM got me motivated enough to write this chapter!

"Curse those Dark Phantom," Lolidragon shouted as she guzzled down her ale.

She slammed the empty goblet down on the table and demanded another one from a nearby waitress. The waitress nodded and quickly retreated to get away from the rowdy woman.

"I know I can't believe they just attacked us over a misunderstanding."

Prince, while annoyed at being beaten, was mainly annoyed that his misinterpretation of their intentions had caused almost his entire party to be wiped. Well that and the fact that their team had lost out on close to 50 gold because they were unable to pick up the dragon dicks.

Viper sighed at the group, feeling he and Wolf were the only mature ones in the group. He understood that both Prince and Lolidragon would have reacted exactly the same way if a group had approached them the way they had approached Dark Phantom. The lamia, however, decided not to voice this opinion and instead decided to help everyone focus on the brighter side of things.

"Instead of constantly getting frustrated an annoyed over our loss, why not take this as an opportunity to learn how to make our team even stronger?"

Everyone instantly silenced and looked towards the effeminate boy. They all seemed to calm down immediately and get thoughtful looks on their faces. Well, all of them except for Gui.

"My darling Viper, you're a genius and gorgeous!"

With that, the bard quickly latched onto the necromancer and proceeded to cuddle him. A blush bloomed on Viper's face yet he couldn't deny that he liked the attention.

Wolf, the strategist of the group was quickly thinking back to their battle. He focused on what they had been lacking and realized the problem almost immediately.

"The reason we were wiped out so quickly was because of our lack of a proper wizard."

His words drew everyone out of their musings and caused Gui to stop cuddling his beloved. Once he had everyone's attention, he continued on with his theory.

"It's true that while we have two capable long distance fighters, we lack someone who can properly defend and respond with magic," Wolf theorized. "Viper is good for sending out essentially cannon fodder to distract the enemies while Guilleastos can fire arrows from a distance. However, if we want to be able to do strong long distance damage, then we'll need to find a wizard."

Everyone around the table clapped at his sound logic.

"But where to find one," Prince mumbled.

"Um…excuse me?"

The quiet voice caught the attention of their group and they all turned to look at the shy young woman who had approached their table.

"I…I overheard that you're looking for a wizard," she inquired hesitantly. "My name is Yullian. My main element is fire and my sub element is wood. I'm also at level 36."

Viper couldn't help but sigh as pandemonium broke out.

"You're a girl right? You like guys?"

"You're not allowed to make any advances on my beloved Viper!"

With that last exclamation, Viper was yet again pulled into a tight hug by Gui.

"Why do you want to join us," Wolf asked.

The girl seemed to turn even redder and stuttered as she tried to convey her reason.

"I..I just heard your conversation just now and…and I was moved?"

Her reply almost seemed more like a question making Lolidragon and Wolf even more suspicious of her reasons to join. Their team was known to have odd members, hence the name they chose for their team. So to have such a normal reason for joining, well it just seemed a bit farfetched if anything.

So, in order to see how well she would do on their team, they took her out to the woods so she could show them her skills. Everything seemed to be going well. She was very capable in terms of fire magic and although lacking in wood magic, knew a few to help out in tight situations. She was powerful enough to take down a few of the enemies herself and she seemed to keep a pretty level head. All of this added up to Lolidragon being even more suspicious.

"This is way too good to be true," the thief muttered to herself.

She watched as Wolf asked for all the techniques Yullian knew. The girl blushed brightly and quickly rushed to answer his question as thoroughly and as best she could She seemed almost frantic. A niggling slowly made its way into Lolidragon's mind as she watched the seen. She had an idea on what Yullian's oddness might be and knew of an easy way to test it.

Lolidragon quickly walked over to Prince and Guilleastos. She grabbed both of their arms and dragged them over to Yullian who glanced at the odd situation forming. The thief that shoved Prince and Guilleastos in front of the wizard.

"What do you think of their looks?" Her face was deadpan as she waited for an answer.

Prince whined from his position of Lolidragon holding his face. Guilleastos, on the other hand, was trying to escape back to his beloved Viper in order for some more cuddling.

"Um…Gui has a very organized face and Prince has a very legal face?"

Her reply sent Prince in a tizzy, glancing into a mirror he had produced from nowhere in order to ensure his face was in fact no legal but the same gorgeous face he knew he had. Guilleastos, on the other hand, had retreated to his beloved Viper and was begging the lamia to reassure him that his face was still as beautiful as ever. The lamia gave a light sigh before petting Gui on the head and assuring him he was as gorgeous as always and had nothing to worry about. This response had the bard instantly squeezing the life out of his beloved from his joy.

Lolidragon's eyes narrowed in thought. She quickly grasped Wolf's shoulders and dragged him in front of the girl. The reaction was instant. Her face turned read and she started to look flustered.

"What about Wolf-bro?"

The girl quickly started listing traits she found admirable in Wolf. His well-groomed fir, maturity, and manliness where quickly reassured by the girl. Wolf just looked on in confusion while both Prince and Gui quickly got up in Wolf's face and searched for the features this girl was listing.

"I'm sure girls will definitely like you both too!" She quickly reassured the two men to hopefully sooth their damaged pride, before quickly turning back to Wolf and staring at the priest with a longing gaze.

With both of their prides damaged, Prince and Guileastos sulked. It seemed that there was at least one woman who wouldn't be swayed by their charms.

"Hey, I have an idea," Lolidragon crowed to Prince.

She quickly grabbed his arm and gathered Guileastos and Viper as well. She dragged them all behind a tree so that neither Yullian nor Wolf could see them.

"So we can all see how much Yullian like Wolf right?" The group nodded as one. "But Wolf seems completely oblivious!" She was frustrated at this point and the others could understand. "Why don't we get them hitched!?"

Viper started at her. Please say he wasn't the only one a bit weirded out by this. At seeing everyone else's cheer he gave a sigh of resignation. Apparently he was the only one.

The plans were simple. Lolidragon was simply suggesting using Viagra to essentially force them together. Viper quickly shut that one down with a harsh glare and a lecture on the morals and ethics of drugging people.

"Let's write a love letter in Yullian's style to Wolf-nii"

Viper gave Gui an impressed look.

"That's a very good and subtle way to do it. It might actually work. That's a really great idea, Gui!"

Of course, getting praise from his beloved meant that said lamia was now be squished to the brink of death by the bard.

Gui's plan really had no draw backs and in theory should have worked without a hitch, however, when in concerns with the Odd Squad, things never seemed to go right. While the letter was a beautiful, poetic summery of Yullian's feelings to Wolf-nii, Gui was a genius in literature. So the letter was way above what Wolf could actually understand.

The next plan was Lolidragon's more legal plan. It was the trick the two into having a candle lit dinner. They would send out an invite to a dinner and then have only Wolf and Yullian show up. Well that plan, unfortunately, flunked as well. Due to the group chat, Wolf and Yullian were able to openly communicate with the group, leaving the conspirators with no reason not to answer.

With Lolidragon focusing back on her idea of drugging the two, Prince finally had enough.

"I guess we're doing things the hard way," he growled as he stomped towards an oblivious Wolf. With one strong swing, he knocked the priest out and dragged him back to the group.

"Lolidragon, you get Yullian and stuff her into a wedding gown. Gui, I want you to be in charge of getting Wolf into his outfit and making him look decent. Viper, I want you to go book a church and get everything ready for the ceremony."

Impressed with the take charge attitude, nobody argued and immediately set about to comply with Princes wishes. It took only an hour to have everything set up for the ceremony and just in time. Wolf, who was set at the alter, was finally waking up.

"Hey, why am I tied up?"

Lolidragon gave him a flat look before responding.

"Yullian is in love with you and wants to marry you. Are you willing or no?"

Wolf looked at the group in shock before turning and looking at the door to the chapel which had just open. Yullian walked through looking like the perfect bride out of a magazine. Her dress fit her perfectly and cascaded in layers at the bottom. The smile on her face was bright and gave away her obvious happiness at the situation.

"W-why would you want me? I'm ugly, don't have the money to pay for your equipment, and I'm not worthy of you," he stuttered helplessly.

Yullian huffed.

"You may not have a lot of money, but you work so hard to keep this group together. You're the rock that keeps them grounded and gets them through the tough situations. You have a kind heart and care a lot about your friends. So in my mind, you're perfect!"

Wolf, finally starting to believe her words, smiled brightly and agreed to the ceremony. It was short and simple, but practicality was something both the groom and bride appreciated so it fit them perfectly. Everyone cheered as the newlywed couple walked down the aisle together. With such a happy occurrence, hopefully everything from then on out would also bring joy to the group.
