Enjoy my loves
Chapter 8
"Did we arrive too early? Yeah we definitely arrived too early" Katy was pacing around, trying to regain her cool, without any success. She and Zed got to the bar in Piltover Skarf had suggested and were now standing outside the entrance, waiting for all of them. They all agreed to meet there at 8pm and Katy could barely contain her building excitement. Just a few hours ago she was just a high summoner, an alchemist, now she's a member of the Summoner council; this was all happening so fast she barely had time to process it all.
"My dear, relax. It's ten minutes to eight, and you're being too nervous about it. These are people you know and hang out with all the time." Zed said plainly, trying to calm her down.
She looked at him; somehow every time he put that smile of his on she felt nothing but calm and peace. She took a deep breath and exhaled.
"Yeah you're probably right. I'm just nervous from everything…" She leaned herself against his chest. "Luckily, I have you to put up with my crazy." She said smiling.
"Well, we make a good team, and that pays the bills…" He jessed and was rewarded with a playful punch to his chest.
"Asshole." She said with a smile, which he returned and pulled her into a kiss.
"Well now, seems like we came a bit early." Skarf came from behind them arms-locked with Jinx.
"Well don't stop on our account!" She added with a goofy smile, making Zed and Katy look away with a slight blush.
"My friends, glad to see I wasn't late." Savos came to view smiling towards them.
"Hello Savos." Katy said giving him a quick hug.
"Well we're missing our maniac…." As Skarf was about to finish the sentence, Rain stepped out of a portal along with Diana, Lulu and Syndra, strangely Syndra chose to come less armored than she usually was; without her shoulder armor, long gloves or her long socks. A fresh change.
While her party exchanged greetings with everyone, Rain turned her attention to Skarf.
"What was that about 'maniac?" She said with a smile while pinching Skarfs cheek.
"Nophing… nophing" He said trying to make her let go.
"Zed. Traitor of Ionia, murderer of the elder of the Kinkou order, master of the forbidden shadow arts." Syndra said with a plain tone yet slightly hostile.
"Syndra. The dark sovereign, the terror of Ionia, a monster in the eyes of the elders." He returned her greeting with the same tone.
They all looked at them silently for a minute and we're taken by surprise, as they began to laugh heartily and hug warmly.
"Good to see you again brother!" Syndra yelled with joy.
"Likewise, sister." He replied, making everyone smile at that slightly weird moment.
"Hello Katy, my dear." she left Skarf's cheek and went to give Katy a hug.
"New summoner robes; they suit you." She complemented. Strangely, they all chose to come with their summoner robes.
"Shall we go in?" Skarf asked, and they all nodded.
Before they could enter, they were stopped by Jinx. "Hold on!"
They turned to her and noticed the devilish grin on her face and her eyes gleam with a wicked glare. "I'm about to say something really cool..." She chimed maliciously. Everyone knew that this would be anything but good.
Without a warning she kicked the door open, grabbed everyone's attention, most turning pale at the very sight of her and yelled. "Everybody, PANIC!" They were so terrified they were frozen in place, giving her time to calm them down before they all storm outside in complete panic. "Relax dudes! I'm joking, not gonna do anything! … this time." The room exhaled but everyone was still on guard, after all this is Jinx.
Skarf turned bright red and quickly apologized to all of them. "Jinx, honey…"
"What? It's just a bit of fun." She said with an innocently sweet smile.
"Yeah but your fun is called anarchy for some people." He said with a small smile and went in to grab a table, but not before he heard Rain and Savos murmuring.
"She actually did it…"
"Damn, should have bet on her side."
Skarf turned around to them. "What was that?"
"Nothing!" They all answered at once and followed him inside, but not before Rain, Katy, Savos, Diana, Lulu and Syndra handed Jinx five bucks each. "Thank you~" She said and followed them inside.
They all took a seat at the table Skarf saved for them and spent the evening talking about the weirdest things; their latest league matches, Diana's and Rain's Resort grand opening, while Lulu, well was just being Lulu, and kept them entertained.
A few shots later…
"So how come Rain get to have black robes?" Katy asked half buzzed.
"That's 'cause I'm awesome and you're not!" She answered and everyone laughed.
"Heeeey ladybaall, try this" Jinx handed her a green colored drink, which she looked at with suspicion.
"What is that?" She inquired.
"That's awesome." She said as she leaned on her shoulder with a bottle in her hand.
"I've never had alcohol before, I'm not sure-"
"AH boo! Always a first time!" Jinx cut off her mid-sentence.
"You should try it." Diana encouraged her with a slight blush on her face from the drinks. "When people get good drunk they sometimes…." She whispered the rest in Syndra's ear, making her turn redder than a tomato.
"Take that back!" Rain yelled and grabbed Syndra, Diana, and Jinx's attention while Lulu just kept stuffing herself with cakes.
"No! You're a weak drinker!" Katy declared with a cocky smile.
"Oh yeah!? Who was it that drank so much she woke up on a tree with nothing but her undies!?" While Katy didn't mind the memory Diana and Jinx laughed to the verge of tears while Syndra tried to hold her laugh and the guys got a bit embarrassed.
"Who was it that got wasted and started digging up a hole in the middle of the yard and tried to bury Savos!?" Katy barked back at Rain, making everyone lose it after that.
"Did she really do that?" Syndra inquired, while trying to regain oxygen back to her lungs.
"Oh yeah, that was awesome, she even tied him up and everything." Diana answered wiping the tears from her eyes.
"I still get nightmares from that time." Savos said half a smile. "She tied my mouth because she claimed I was 'waking the neighbors' with my begging." Syndra and Diana simply laughed again.
"Alright! We'll settle this now!" Rain declared placing two small sized glasses on the table, and signaled one of the waiters to come.
"How may I help you?" He said with a smile.
"I want a bottle of the strongest thing you got here!" Rain ordered.
"I'll ask the bartender right away summoners." He replied and went towards the bar.
"Rain you sure you want to do this?" Katy asked mockingly.
"You sure you won't chicken-out on me?" Rain shot back at her.
The competitive aura dripping from the two of them drew everyone's attention, even more when the waiter returned with the bartender and a bottle of what seemed to be glowing ice-blue liquid in it. "This is a special whiskey brewed from Freljord, if I'm not mistaken it's from the Winter Claw."
"Diana, remind me to send Sejuani my thanks after I win." Rain ordered.
As the bartender poured the whiskey into the glasses, he was bumped by a tiny figure, which caused him to lose balance and drop the bottle on the floor.
"You shouldn't drink, it's bad for you." Teemo lectured. "And you shouldn't eat so many sweets, it's really bad for your health." He said and grabbed Lulu's plate and took it away.
"My cakes!" Lulu screamed with teary eyes, and just sat back and began to cry. "Why you are always so mean to me Teemo?!" She said through her sobs.
"I'm not mean I think you should-" He let out a yelp when Katy and Rain grabbed him by the hat and had a murderous look on their faces.
"There is a special place in hell for people like you who waste good alcohol…." Katy said with a dark tone.
"That is if you get there after I'm done with you…" Rain added. "No one makes my Lulu cry and stays alive after that…" She said while her other hand was hugging Lulu and calming her down.
Few minutes later
Teemo was tied up to the dart board on the wall, when almost the entire bar was lining up to try and hit him with a dart.
"20 bucks if you hit the head!" Savos yelled.
"Make sure to use non-pointy darts." Skarf added.
"But where's the fun in that!?" Jinx yelled in protest.
Teemo was trying to object but was unable to speak due to the bandages that were tied to his mouth. When he finally managed to slip a bit from them he looked up, only to see a black sphere coming at him very fast.
The sphere hit Teemo and made a small Teemo shaped hole in the wall.
"That's for the shrooms you bastard!" She yelled.
"Nice throw." Rain commented as she hugged Syndra from behind and pulled her to a kiss. "I still want that 'thank you' in bed." She teased and made her slightly blush.
"Soon enough…" Syndra whispered.
"Now drink this!" Jinx yelled shoving two glasses filled with green liquid to Rain's and Syndra's face, the two looked to each other, smiled and then took the drinks. The rest of the night was spent with more drinking, laughing, and good times shared with friends.
The next morning, Rain woke up heavily. She had a major hangover from all the drinking last night. As she tried to get up, she noticed she couldn't and something was crushing her.
"Mhmm…. Rain…" Syndra moaned, making Rain's eyes shoot open. Syndra was laying on top of her, naked and cuddling. She must have drank too much since she didn't notice her or her weight until she woke up, as she tried to move she started feeling the weight on her left arm, and that she was holding something rather soft.
"Mhmm…" Diana was cuddled next to her, naked as well, with Rain's hand underneath and grabbing at her rear.
"Holyyyy…..shit…." Rain whispered quietly 'while normally I don't mind, how the hell do I get out now?' She thought to herself, slowly trying to wiggle her hand out. Diana began to move a bit, making it more difficult. Things became a lot harder when Syndra started to move as well, sending stimulations to Rain as their bodies began to rub together.
'whhhhyyyyy….' Rain screamed in her head, trying not to let out moans or anything that could wake them up. Finally, she pulled her hand out. She placed Syndra softly on the bed and covered the two up.
"Well that was…. interesting." She said to herself as she thrown on a black Pentakill T-shirt that was a few sizes bigger than hers and a pair of black panties. Having taken care of her nudity problem, her head sent her a reminder.
"Ugh….My head is killing me…" She grabbed her head and began to drag herself to the bathroom, when she suddenly heard slight knocking sound. She really didn't want to check but her curiosity got the better of her.
As she opened the door there was no one there, she looked to the left and to the right and no one was at the hallway as well.
"Weird, I'm probably still fucked up a bit…." She was about to close the door when she looked down and found Esdese, sitting next to the door, hugging her legs, her head between her knees and it sounded as if she was… mumbling to herself.
"I'm trash… failure…. Pathetic excuse for a knight…. Worthless piece of shit…." She said through her sobs.
"Uh Esdese wha-" Rain was about to ask as Esdese shot up and bowed immediately hitting her head on the floor.
"I'M SORRY MY DEAD MASTER, PLEASE SEND ME NOT FROM YOUR SIGHT, IT WAS AN ACCIDENT IF I KNEW-" She began to yell her apology and begging for forgiveness, making Rain's head ring like she was in the middle of a Pentakill show.
"Do you have… to yell…..in the morning? " Rain said painfully. "And what are you apologizing for now?..." She added making the Dullahan stop and look up.
"Oh sorry, it's just….. I shamed you my dead master." She began to tear up again.
"Esdese please get to the point, I'm dying here…." Rain added; her headache was starting up again.
"I walked in last night to change your beddings, and you and Lady Diana and Lady Syndra were…. In the middle of it." She said shyly. "I interrupted you in your most intimate time…."
Rain looked at her puzzled. She had no idea what her servant was talking about as she had no memory of that, or she was too lost in the moment last night to remember. Still, she could see how much of a big deal it was for her Dullahan since she began crying again.
She approached Esdese and patted her head. "Nothing happened; you're my most beloved servant, so stop worrying." She tried to wear a smile of her face.
Esdese got up and wiped her tears as Rain added. "Go see if Nami is awake, and then start making breakfast for us all, as expected from my outstanding servant."
Esdese smiled and replied. "Yes, my dead master, right away!" And went cheerily down the hall, leaving Rain to be able to go back to her hangover…
Lulu skipped down the hall with Pix flying around her. After all the cakes she ate last night, Jinx gave her a shot of alcohol that knocked her out completely. Pix looked at her with a curious look, which she returned with a smile.
"Yup, you're right Pix that drink really did taste like purple." She replied with an answer probably only she and Pix knew the meaning of. "Let's see if Sisi and Diana and Syndra are already awake." She added and Pix nodded happily.
As the arrived Rain's and Diana's room Lulu slightly knocked on the door, only to have no answer in return. Lulu knocked again, this time a bit louder, still no answer. With that, Lulu decided to enter and opened the door.
"Sisi…." She said quietly, still no answer. She walked in only to find the bed empty.
"Maybe they went to eat?" She wondered to herself when suddenly she heard noises coming from the small bathroom. She made her way there, and opened the door only to find her three big sisters in weird positions.
"Ugghhhh….." They let out pained sounds at the same time. Syndra was dressed in a black sleeveless shirt and a pair of black panties while Diana was dressed in a purple shirt that had a large cut around the neck area and a pair of panties.
Syndra was clinging to the small sink with her head held up by her arms. Rain was hugging the toilet; ready to throw up again. Behind her was Diana with her head under the bathtub's tap, cold water streaming down on her. The three were letting out pained moans, not even noticing the tiny mage.
"Why did I ever agree to drink so much…?" Syndra said letting her face sink under the sink's tap as she opened the cold water.
"Never…..Never doing heavy drinking like that again…." Rain muttered with her face facing down the toilet, getting her head back up, she flushed the water.
"Come on Rain….. We both know that's something we'll never be able to keep." Diana said with a slight giggle as she continued to let the cold water do its magic.
"Um Sisi…." Lulu said quietly but loud enough to grab the three's attention. "Breakfast is ready…" She added.
The three looked at her without response, and then returned to their previous stances. "Wow you guys drank a lot last night…" Lulu said worryingly.
"What gave it away?" Syndra said with a pained tone.
"I don't mind…. As long as I get to stare at Syndra's and Diana's ass in those panties I'm good…" Rain teased and was rewarded with a slight kick from Syndra, followed by a slight giggle.
"Sisi look at me for a second." Lulu said as she approached her and Rain obliged, she then placed the point of her staff on Rain's forehead. It began to give a green glow and Rain could feel her stamina returning and her headache slowly fading away.
"What the hell? I'm feeling….good." She said with a shocked tone and looked at Lulu, who merely smiled heartily. "What did you do?" She inquired.
"I healed your headache obviously." She answered.
"Thanks Lulu." She said and patted her head.
"I'm next!" Syndra and Diana jumped on Lulu.
During breakfast, things went quietly, although after Esdese and Nami served them, Esdese did nothing but stare at her master to see her reactions and hope that they were positive ones, which caused Rain to feel nothing but uneasiness. She got used to it after a few minute, and finally Syndra broke the silence.
"I got it!" She said while slamming her hands on the table and grabbing everyone's attention.
"What are you talking about?" both Rain and Diana inquired.
"This weekend I'll train you!" She said cheerily and pointed at Rain.
"Train me? In what?" Rain asked, still having no clue what Syndra was talking about.
"Your powers! You said you can't control them fully right? Well that's because you never had proper training on them! So I'll train you the same way I trained myself to control my powers! Or at least train your body to be able to control them." Syndra explained.
"Is this your way to get back at me for last night?" Rain said with a smile, and made Syndra blush.
"What? NO! I…. didn't mind….you playing with my…. ANYWAY, I want to do this because I care!" Syndra declared.
"Come on, trust your girlfriend…" She said with a blush. Calling Rain her girlfriend was still strange to her, but nevertheless it gave her happiness inside.
"Well in that case, sure but let's have Diana and Lulu join too."
Few minutes later
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Rain asked worryingly, her voice is filled with fear, never before she had been so scared.
"Don't worry; it's the best way for this training to be most effective." Syndra assured her.
"The standing on a sphere I get…." She said as she tried to keep her balance "But why THE FUCK DO WE HAVE TO DO THIS SO HIGH?!" She screamed in terror, for as long as can remember heights were her greatest rival.
"The air here is flowing freely. Focus on the flow of the air, hear the sound of the wind, and let your mind drift away; feel the flow of magic within you." Syndra encouraged. "Balance yourself physically and mentally…."
Rain tried to do as she said. She closed her eyes and breathed deeply, trying to make her body as loose as possible. When she finally started to feel her energy flowing within her, she opened her eyes and looked down.
"Ahaha! Shit!" The moment she looked, her fear got the better of her and she lost her focus and fell down, but was quickly stopped by Syndra grabbing her and getting them both down.
"Well, we have to work on that." Syndra said with a slight smile. "Never took you for one who was afraid of heights." She teased.
Rain blushed. "S-shut up!"
"Ha! Serves you right for all of your teasing on me."
"Heh, by the way Syndra…." Rain grabbed her attention.
"Hmm?"
"Where did you learn this?" She inquired.
"It's a technique I taught myself after I freed myself. It was something I did in order to reach balance within my mind and with my powers." She explained.
"Balance? That's a bit hypocritical, don't you think?" Rain said puzzled.
"Ha! Those balance obsessed freaks don't even know a glimpse of what true balance is!" She said a bit annoyance.
"Syndra I'm sorry, I didn't mean to sound-" Rain immediately regretted her words but was cut off by Syndra.
"My anger is not toward you, and I'll admit it did sound a bit hypocritical of me." She said to calm her down. She turned her gaze towards the outdoor pool and looked at the waterfall that was near the natural hot springs.
"The truth is, balance is everywhere, true balance is not between what's good and what's bad.
"The Elders are idiots. They think one life style, one way of thinking, is balance, and whatever dares to disturb this 'peace', like myself, has to be purged." She turned to face Rain.
"When in truth; its complete bullshit. Balance is one thing, but blindness… that's a completely different thing, and those who do not agree with that are branded as traitors and heretics.
"I reached true balance within myself, real live reason is the fact I control these powers where the Ionian bastards sought to tame or even destroy it Instead of trying to understand it. …pathetic mortals." Rain closed in and hugged her from behind, leaning her head on Syndra's shoulder.
"I never really thought of the balance like that, that's amazing Syndra." She said as she ran her hand in Syndra's hair.
"I really owed that life lesson to Zed you know; he's truly an honorable man." She said.
"Still, I'll never know what led him to kill his step-father…"
"I could tell you what really happened that day, but he made me swear I'll never tell this to anyone." She said as Rain pulled her into a kiss.
"I don't need to know why he did it, I of all people understand it perfectly. You trust him and I've known him since he and Katy started dating. I see him as a friend of mine as well." She said warmly making Syndra smile.
They both remained like that for a little while, looking at the yard of the resort, the trees, the pool, the hot springs.
"You know, I got to say this place is really beautiful…" Syndra said.
"Soon enough it'll be open for business, but for now it's just for us" Rain replied softly.
They stayed hugged for a little while, enjoying the the sudden cool breeze that blew across them, until Rain remembered a certain detail.
"By the way, where are Diana and Lulu?" Rain suddenly remembered that he two of them where training too and Syndra's face grew pale.
"Shit…"
Lulu was holding on to dear life, while Diana simply stood on the point of her swords handle on top of one of Syndra's Spheres, not moving an inch.
"Sisi! I don't want to play anymore! Sisi!" Lulu screamed and didn't notice Syndra floating next to her now.
"Sorry! Sorry! I forgot completely about you two." Syndra placed her hands together.
"Well I don't mind, this was fun." Diana proclaimed, making Syndra look at her with an amazed look.
Finally, with the four of them down on the ground, Lulu immediately jumped into Rain's arms. "Well that settles today's training, right?" She asked Syndra.
"Fine, I guess." Syndra sighed.
"Great, now let's go soak a bit in the springs!" Rain declared.
"I'll admit; I really hoped you'd say that." Syndra and Diana said with a smile.
