The soft rays of the morning sun streamed through the ceiling of the room, dimly illuminating the huge room. The sun was rising. It was only a small patch of white light on the wall of dark wood, but Kidd was already awake. In truth he had been awake for a long time, long before the sun started to enter in his lair, he had already opened his eyes, aware of the world. Yet he still didn't get up, and he didn't think he would do it now, or ever.

They were both lying on Kidd's huge bed, the one that could easily accommodate an entire family but that, with Kidd in it, barely had any room left for Law's body. But it wasn't like Law also needed it. The boy's body was completely surrounded by Kidd's one, completely covered and fully resting under the heavy blankets and sheets of silk and fur. The tanned boy had his head resting comfortably on Kidd's arm, using it as a pillow and his tattooed fingers sprawled out on Kidd's pale chest. Meanwhile, the redhead got his free arm around Trafalgar's waist possessively, pulling their bodies impossibly closer and resting his chin on the soft dark hair of the boy's head.

Kidd was hot with so many blankets over him, and he felt the arm Law was leaning on beginning to go numb from lack of blood flow. He was also hungry, he wanted to stretch and get up for once. But he didn't. The thought didn't even cross his mind for a moment. Leaving Law right now just seemed like the stupidest thing he could do in his life. The timing was perfect, the feeling of the other's body, protected in his arms, was incredible, his calm and relaxed breath ghosting over his neck, being able to stroke his hair and golden skin without repercussions… it was like a dream from Kidd's deepest fantasies had come true.

No, Kidd wasn't going to get up. Now or ever. They could remain that way for eternity for all he cared. There has never been a moment in his life like the one he was living now, in which he felt completely satisfied and at peace with the world, in which felt like the happiest and most fortunate person in history.

And it was thanks to the bond that had finally formed between them. Kidd felt it in his mind and in his chest. Strong, bright and powerful. A chain linking his soul to the dark haired boy's one. A link that would never break unless one of them died.

Law had finally accepted him, he had agreed to accept the bond and Kidd just wanted to scream and jump for joy like a madman when he announced the news to the world. Part of the redhead's mind was rolling its eyes at the pink and cloying attitude he was having. That part also knew that a huge part of what he was feeling was thanks to the magic; the link would still alter his emotions for a few more days until it finally disappeared and he recovered his normal behaviour. But he didn't care. He didn't care about anything. Law had finally accepted him and he had every right in the world to be happy.

Smiling stupidly, the dragon raised his hand from Law's hip and moved it up his back in a soft, slow caress, his fingers savoring every curve of that strong back and every little centimeter of warm skin. Once the hand reached the shoulder blades, He stopped and repeated the caress going down. Descending the back of the boy until he reached his perfect bare ass, and squeezed it between his fingers in a possessive grip, feeling it molding perfectly under his hand. It was definitely a good butt.

Law grunted in his sleep and moved even closer to his body trying to get away from his skillful and teasing hand, as he began to wake up from the deep sleep he had been plunged after their strenuous sex session from last an idea, Kidd smirked against the tanned boy's hair, .

Lowering his hand even more to the the back part of Law's thigh, he reached Law's knee and pulled at it slightly until the leg of the boy ended up over Kidd's waist. Then he rolled down the bed onto his back with Law still asleep over him, but with his legs now open on either side of the dragon's waist. Kidd almost groaned from that perfect posture, feeling dark skin sliding against his and the slight erection that was beginning to appear between the boy's open legs.

With both hands now free, Kidd brought them down to the boy's perfect butt, beginning to insistently and eagerly massage it, brushing his cute little hole again and again but without deepening anything. Just waking and teasing him the way he always loves to do and the way that always turned that little boy crazy from frustration because Kidd didn't give him what he oh so wanted.

Law growled against his neck, finally waking up, annoyed and then realizing the situation in which he was involved.

"What do you think you're doing?" He asked sleepily but with a clearly angry voice. Kidd had discovered that the child was never in a good mood in the morning, and since then, he had taken advantage of it whenever he could. It was always fun to mess with him, and the fact that they always solved their fights with hard and dominant sex was also a good incentive.

This time wasn't any different . "What do you think I'm doing?" the dragon asked, his words coming out as a purr as he finally touched the gray eyed boy's trembling entrance.

Law grumbled about him and finally lifted his head from his chest to look at him. But without taking those hands -the ones that keep squeezing his butt as if it was the most succulent thing they had ever touched- away from his butt.

"Well, stop." Law said ignoring the chills that ran through his body at the feeling of Kidd's fingers touching his entry with increasing intensity. "I'm in no mood for this." he said, trying to get up and flee from the dangerous hands of the redhead. After last night's events Law even doubted he would be able to sit for a while. It wasn't a good idea to further worsen the situation.

Kidd just laughed meanwhile under another light purr, he rolled them in bed again, until this time he was the one lying over Law, locking him between his body and the mattress. Instantly the dark haired one wanted to complain about the weight of the other man over him, Kidd was just too big in all senses, but then his lips were captured by the redhead's, and he no longer thought of anything else.

To say Kidd was good kisser would be a great understatement. The dragon was just amazing. He took his mouth as if he was taking possession of a country. He dominated, annihilated and didn't let Law able to do anything but gasp for air when everything ended. Law moaned helplessly as the other bit his lower lip, as if punishing him for rejecting the redhead's advances, and Law's tattooed hands flew to the red flaming hair to pull him down and deepen the kiss. An apology for the rejection. Kidd devoured his mouth, and for long and perfect minutes, the redhead did nothing but eat his mouth again and again with long, deep kisses.

Once they separated again, Kidd rolled across the bed and they just stayed in that position : lying next to each other without going any further, just touching each other and looking into the other's his eyes trying to memorize every little millimeter of each other. It was at that moment, where they weren't discussing or fucking, like they have been doing, just after Law had decided to stay with the dragon, to share his life with him, that Law realized he had to tell Kidd the truth.

It was time to give explanations. It was needed for Kidd to know their enemies.

"Kidd," he said slowly and carefully looking into the dragon's golden eyes, "We may have a problem." and in an instant he saw a frown appear on the handsome face of the dragon.

"What do you mean?" Kidd quickly asked, approaching him and putting a hand on his neck, so possessive and domineering. Locking him back against his body and preventing him from escaping again.

Law understood the dragon's gesture with no problem. Kidd thought that Law was going to leave him again and that he was going to confine himself inside his mind again, abandoning the link tying their souls. The exorcist smiled at the look of fear, but of absolute determination to keep him by his side, that the dragon was sending him; it felt so good to be so loved. Trying to reassure Kidd in anyway he could, the dark haired boy took the hand on his neck and stroked it briefly as he dedicated the beast a slight smile.

"No, it's not what you think, I …" his words just got stuck in his throat. He wanted to tell him, he needed to tell him, but it was a complicated issue to explain, and Kidd could get angry if he didn't speak about it carefully. Law didn't want that to happen. "Do you remember when you caught me and when we fought? Do you remember that I told you that I was from Italy and that someone wanted to kill you?"

Kidd's gaze instantly went from the worried one to the alert and focused one. Sticking even more to Law's body, the redhead nodded knowing that this would be a serious and long conversation. Law smiled feeling slightly more relaxed thanks to the attention.

"Well... I am an exorcist, I was trained by the Vatican to destroy creatures like you, and I was sent by them here to kill you." Law thought that this was a very nice and simple way to describe it, but at the moment it would be enough. Kidd didn't needed to know more.

Kidd, however, keep staring at him, his hand on his neck had begun to drawing circles on his skin without realizing it and clearly his mind was racing, filling spaces that Law didn't quite fill with this sort explanation.

"Trained?" The dragon asked after a while, making Law force out a bitter smile.

Of course Kidd nothing escaped Kidd's sharp stare. Dragon Intelligence was one of the things that had always riled him up during the interrogation, Law couldn't misleaded him then. But now it was one of the things he felt more attracted to. That was one of the many things he loved about Kidd, he was so intelligent, he understood things and problems so fast. It might be thanks to his many centuries of lifetime, but Law couldn't help appreciating it, he appreciated not needing to explain every gross and horrible detail to him.

"Yes, they taught me how to fight and do magic. From ten to eighteen they trained me and taught me everything I know now." Law said, trying not to show any emotion in his voice or face. Trying not to reveal any feeling that could show Kidd the truth. He didn't need to know what they had done to him.

Unfortunately the dragon seemed to have learned how to read him like an open book during the last weeks.

"They hurt you, right?" Kidd said quietly but with a slightly dangerous note in his voice.

Law felt his voice choking in his throat and the old wounds reopen in seconds. He was still too vulnerable after the stupid link and the events of the previous days. He needed to create the barriers again, he needed to protect himself, it wasn't yet the time to say it, he wasn't ready yet and he probably would never will be, he needed to get away...

"Tell me." was all Kidd need to say while his nose caressed his cheek and his hand keep stroking his neck so protectively. While he enveloped Law in a quiet and safe place to let go of the suffering after years of compulsory silence.

The words escaped his mouth before he noticed.

Law told him everything, from the macabre murder of his father by the church for being the first exorcist who had rebelled against the code to marry his mother ; to the last day of training in which he had had to kill his first prey -a demon that had possessed a child of not more than five years and that had died along with the monster. He told him about the training sessions in which he had had to pick up a sword and fight for his life against other selected childs, without having been given the slightest fencing lesson.

He told Kidd how he had to study some the potions from old books in strange languages he didn't understand. How, after he had prepared the concoctions, he had had to drink them so that he would understand the effect they would have and how he could use them against their enemies. He explained how he had to drink various different poisons to be immune to them and so no one could poison him or take advantage of. He told him about how, out of twenty students that had started the training only two had reached the end of it, and how year after year he keep transforming into a killing machine and the perfect puppet.

During the whole time he was telling his story Kidd keep his arms wrapped around him and gave him soft kisses every time something seemed too macabre or painful. Law found himself counting things he had never told to anyone, opening a part of his soul that he had long ago sealed in the depths of his being. Every word the dark haired boy said was like a weight lifting from his shoulders, every possible trauma still remaining from those old injuries vanishing and disappearing thanks to Kidd's soothing caresses.

When he had told everything that he had needed to shake off, both just remain in silence, absorbing the words the exorcist just said and recovering from the impact they had on them. Law was trembling slightly after reviving all those memories. Kidd kept distractingly embracing him while a hard, cold look remained in his eyes.

"That why the wounds I did to you healed? You used one of the potions they taught you." Kidd suddenly asked Law as if he had noticed something important.

"Yes." Law answered, remembering the first time he had to create that potion. How he had confused birch bark with the yew one, and had ended up in having to stay in bed for several weeks on the verge of death. Since then he had never done another mistake, and as much as it pissed him to admit it, that way of training was a good way to motivate the students: either learn or die.

Law closed his eyes, tortured. He had opened a door that had been closed and now, suddenly, everything seemed to come back to haunt him.

"But that's not the problem." he said looking at Kidd seriously.

"The Vatican right?" Kidd said burying his face in his neck to smell his aroma while he hugged him even tighter as if he wanted to protect him from anything. Law finally smiled again and sank his hands into the warm hair of the dragon leaving the bad memories in the past where they belonged.

"Yes, an exorcist always fulfills the mission and returns to Rome. If he doesn't return, then he's considered dead and the Vatican sent another group to resolve the threat that defeated the first one. It's on the code." He explained while wrapping his arms around the redhead's waist letting the other cover the mark on his neck with soft kisses.

"They're going to come after me." Kidd finally understood as he lifted his head back up to met Law's mouth.

"Yes, after the two of us." Law answered, fleeing away from Kidd's lips without much success "They would go after you because you are a monster they believe they must kill to rid the world of its suffering. And for me because I have broke the code, allied with the enemy, and therefore I am no longer useful as an exorcist."

Then suddenly, Kidd stood over his body, looking at him, totally serious and determined. Law just stayed silent while watching the impressive man above him, the one that had helped him take away such a great weight greatly from his soul. Leave him after all they have being through, after all that they were still going through, now seemed as an impossible task.

"I'm not letting that happen." Kidd said. "None of us will ever die." the dragon announced deadly serious.

It was completely true, Kidd thought. Nobody was going to separate him from the dark haired boy now that they were finally together. The church should even be thankful for Kidd letting them live after what they had done to his partner. Kidd still felt the anger and the lust for revenge boiling in his veins after every word the other had said. After watching every look of pain the boy had tried to hide. But he needed to contain all that anger, Law needed him now, he needed his support and his company, he couldn't leave him alone to go for revenge.

But there would be time for that.

Law smiled again in that way that made his whole body melt, surely knowing what was going through Kidd's mind.

"I know." Law said raising his hands to sink them in his red hair again and to drag him down next to his mouth. "I'm only warning you so you be watchful." Their lips rubbed again causing both to sight of pure pleasure.

"I got it." Kidd murmured against the other's soft lips with a small smile. I was clear that Law trusted him now, the boy knew that Kidd would protect him from anything, in the same way that Law was telling him this now and protecting him. "Then should we prepare for war?" He asked ironically and clearly trying to lighten the mood a bit.

Law, however, really thought about the dragon's words while Kidd nibbled at his lower lip, as he taken a liking for doing for the last few days. Drawing chills from his body every time his lips came into contact with his.

With a dragon on his side Law doubted they would have any problem, but still ...

"I should get my sword back." he finally said to Kidd. Because deep down he would feel more secure with his old sword by his side, with the weapon he had always carried with him and the one that had accompanied him all these years.

With the only memory he had from his tutor.

Kidd, however, froze in place as Law had expected.

He had brought out a delicate topic and Law expected back the fight and screams between them soon, as what had happened the last time he had asked to go out of the cave. However this time he would stand his ground. He needed his sword and he was going to get it.

But, to his surprise, this time Kidd didn't panic or explode in a fit of anger, this time the dragon just stared at him as if he was really considering letting him go out. Law's eyes widened then in disbelief. Was Kidd really going to let him leave the cave? Was he really going to take him out?

"All right, I'll take you to the village and to the hut." Kidd announced, staring at him intently and bowing his head slightly, to finally catch Law's lips in a deep kiss.

Law again felt the heat in his chest rise at the show of trust that Kidd professed him. Knowing how hard it must have been for the dragon to grant his request and take him out of the cave, putting them in danger.

Smiling again, Law just hugged the redhead and simply rejoined their mouths, while the redhead's erection returned to rub against his hip in a perfect and insistent cadence.

.

.

.

The flight was as amazing as always, only that this time, unlike of the previous times, Law finally had a clear mind, and for the first time he enjoyed the feeling of freedom, that fly crossing the clouds at superhuman speed trigged. In the past, the dark haired man had envied the freedom that the dragon seemed to have as he flew, doing impossible loops in the air currents, but this time the feeling also invaded him and was his completely.

For the first time in his life, Law was truly free and he soon enjoyed filling his lungs with the cold morning air and drawing every feeling he could from their environment.

The sky was gray and dark as when he had first arrived at the valley, now, he didn't even know how the sun had been able to shine a few days ago in between those dense clouds that always covered the place. Thank goodness it wasn't raining that day today, nor was there any strong wind blowing around them. It was barely dawn, and still everything, from the dark mountains to the small village of smoking chimneys, seemed to be in complete calm.

The silence surrounded them as they flew weightless. The colors seemed more muted today, the bright green of the trees and the thick grass of the fields was overshadowed, the blue sky was hidden and even the bright red dragon's scales had a grayish hue. Everything was just too quiet and too disturbing. There were no birds in the air around them, they didn't see deers running through the tall pines of the mountains, not even a single farmer gardening around the village. Everything was empty. The world almost seemed to be waiting for something to happen, for the storm to unfold while all living creature took refuge in their homes, trying to hide from the huge catastrophe.

Law, astride the beast, grabbed tightly the sword that he had recovered from his cabin just moments ago, and shifted on Kidd's back while his huge wings flapped behind him at a quiet pace, getting closer and closer to the small town.

They were taking precautions to avoid any conflict, Kidd was flying high among the clouds hiding his huge body from the view of anyone who looked up, and Law had recited a camouflage spell around then. They had even planned to land away from the village so that nobody could see the dragon by any chance, and, when they reached the town, no one would recognize them thanks to heavy hooded cloaks Law had taken to hide their faces.

Everything was ready, nothing was going to happen.

However Law still felt uncomfortable. Something was wrong. His instincts screamed at him to return to the cave, that something bad was about to happen, it was a hunch he'd had since they had resumed their flight from their cottage. Law had instantly studied his surroundings, had planted spells and had been on alert since them, but nothing had caught his eye. His rational mind told him that there was nothing to worry about, that he was getting paranoid, but the feeling of discomfort still didn't fade and only it only kept increasing with each passing second they came closer to the village.

Until he couldn't help telling it to Kidd.

'Kidd,' he muttered in the dragon's mind 'let's go back to the cave.'

The dragon then, slowed down his advance, and turned his huge head to look at him. Huge golden eyes stared into his and a wave of warm air ruffled his hair as the dragon opened his mouth giving him a smile full of teeth the size of his leg.

'Why?' questioned the creature 'We're almost there, it would just be a moment. I also need to do some things there, don't worry.'

Kidd returned to beating his wings in the air, propelling them between the currents and starting to descend into a huge clearing in the dense forest to the north of the town. Law bit his lip, hesitating. Really his paranoia made no sense, they had already arrived at the village, and both of them had things to do. Law needed to talk to other people apart from the ancient dragon after months of captivity, it will make them both some good. And they were already there. It would be foolish to go back now. Furthermore, he still couldn't identify the problem, he didn't know if he was just paranoid. Was he going to make Kidd go back based on an assumption? Now that Kidd had finally agreed to take him to the village?

No, that was stupid.

Hiding his thoughts and concerns, Law shut up and just grabbed one of Kidd's heavy scales tightly as the dragon began to plummet to the ground.

It was one of the games that amused Kidd most. Law had never flown and, although he enjoyed the sense of freedom and the breathtaking views, there were things that he still hadn't gotten used too. Falling to the ground seeing the floor coming toward them in seconds, flying upside down feeling that he could fall at any time, or some of the twists and changes of direction Kidd used to do in the air, were a few of the things he hated the most. He liked to fly, but he definitely wasn't a suicidal person, and he didn't like to see how he could break his skull with one of the stupid dragon's tricks.

Kidd, of course, had realized instantly how the human heart accelerated to a furious pace, and how his body tensed, squeezing Kidd between his legs, almost strangling him when he did some tricks, and, like the good boyfriend he was, he hadn't hesitated to take advantage of it. Law swore he had never cursed anyone in his life as much as when the dragon just plummeted to the ground again and again until Law was hysterical.

This time wasn't any different , and when, at the last moment, Kidd opened his wings to stop their free fall they were doing, Law felt the air leave his lungs violently, leaving him dizzy, and the exorcist swore that when he stepped on firm ground, he was really going to choke the beast. When Kidd finally planted his feet on the ground, crushing the grass and the earth beneath his weight, Law jumped from his neck and almost considered kissing the ground.

One thing was flying in the air, quite another was to fly with a dragon whose only motivation in life was to kill him from a heart attack. Behind him, Kidd laughed as he transformed back into the enormous red-haired human.

Law just glared at him and threw the fur coat he had taken with him to hide Kidd's presence, in the dragon's face.

"Next time I'll put a saddle and a harness on you to control your suicidal impulses." he told him with his heartbeat going still a bit faster than usual thanks to the redhead's latest "joke".

Kidd just laughed, approaching him while he placed the cape over his shoulders and covered the bright red hair with the hood. His eyes were still glowing eerily in the shadows of his face, but the cape hid his powerful muscles and the strange clothes of dark silk and exquisite trim that someone like him shouldn't be wearing.

The dragon then approached him from behind and hugged his shoulders with one arm, while with the other one, he covered his head with the hood that has fallen because of the flight. Law only growled at the gesture, but did nothing to remove the dragon's body off his when the beast hugged him and rested his chin on his shoulder.

"There are other much more ... exciting and easy ways to control myself, Law." the dragon said hoarsely against the exorcist's ear as his lips slowly stroked his earlobe, drawing another shiver of pleasure from him.

Unfortunately Law still felt too much of the adrenaline from the fall and the anger for the joke in his veins to fall so easily into the cheap trick of the dragon. Maybe, sex had served the redhead to manipulate him at first, after all Law had been a blushing virgin and he hadn't have had enough experience in the matter to be able to resist, but Law learned quickly and he was starting to read the dragon too well.

"Are you talking about sex now Eustass?" he asked wryly with his eyes full of anger. "Do you want me to leave you without your beloved sex for trying to kill us?" He asked innocently.

The exorcist was delighted at how he felt the dragon instantly tense behind him, and he even caught a glimpse of his paling face as the redhead held his breath, realizing the mess he had gotten himself into.

Law wanted to laugh evilly in revenge.

"The truth is that I'm more in favor of positive-reinforcement." the millenary beast quickly explained. "What about a sex session against the kitchen table if I behave? Last time you seemed to like it." Kidd asked with an intelligent smirk on his face.

Law rolled his eyes, got rid of the redhead's grip, and began walking towards the town without waiting for the other in the least. That time in the dining room the situation had gotten out of hand and Law was still mentally punishing himself for some things he had done and that he had said to the dragon. The handcuffs hadn't been a good idea from the beginning, and it had only gotten worse with him sprawled on the damn table with the dragon completely free to do whatever he wanted. Law still felt his pulse quicken and his mouth go dry when he remembered that time. They would repeat it, of course they would, but next time he would be the one who will chain the arrogant dragon to the desk and would torture him for hours in the most degrading way until he allowed him to fucking reach his damn orgasm.

"I think not, right now the truth is that I would rather castrate you to show you what happens when you do stupid jokes." he answered, smartly ignoring what was on his mind.

Kidd growled softly and ran after him until he reached Law and took him by the hand. Sticking to his side like a stalker without being able to be more than two minutes without touching him, it seemed.

"Come on Law, don't get angry, it was only a joke." Kidd murmured, looking at him, really worried. Although Law didn't know if it was because he had just denied him sex, or because he truly regretted what he had done and was concerned about him getting angry.

When the dragon released his hand and moved it to fondle his butt gently -as if he was afraid to not be able to do it again- the exorcist realized that it clearly was the first option.

"Fuck you." Law whispered, completely mad, before grabbing the smart hand and squeezing it until he practically crushed the bones and Kidd cursed under his breath.

.

.

.

The two men sitting in the dark room raised their heads at once. The fire in the fireplace in front of them reflected in their eyes, and they shone bright with victory in them.

They had been waiting for hours -sitting in that little basement they had payed for a few days before- around the almost extinct fire and in total darkness. It had been a dungeon that had been converted into a small room of the city hall a few years ago, but that still retained the damp, moldy walls of stone, and the wooden cots with a few blankets on them.

It was what the mayor had offered them when they hadn't found any other place in town to stay. Surely the mayor had wanted to take revenge on them by offering the two exorcist some form of horrible place to stay. He had probably believed that they wouldn't endure living in those conditions of moisture and darkness.

Unfortunately it hadn't worked in the least, because both men had been in much worse situations and this place was more comfortable than sleeping in the wet floor. Furthermore, the room had served its purpose without any problem. It had allowed them to sleep with a ceiling over their heads, to dry their wet clothes on the fire, and to cast the countless search and protection spells, far away from the eyes of the townspeople.

And it had been two of those spells they had cast days ago, the ones that had made them raise their heads and making them alert now.

The first one was used to find people. It was a small pendulum that swung in the direction in which the person was. It was definitely something useful but that had limitations, because they needed something that had belonged to the person they wanted to find, and because it only acted on an area proportional to the power of the one who cast the spell. In this case they had used some bandages covered with Law's blood that they had found in the cabin and that had undoubtedly worked without any problem; unfortunately neither of them had too much magic power for the spell and the area on which the spell had worked had only covered the small town, without any results so far.

The second spell was different however, it was just a few whispered words in old Latin that didn't need more than the reciting to work. It was a simple alarm. If any creature they should kill crossed the invisible barrier that the spell created, the alarm would be activated in their minds, alerting them in seconds. It was a spell that every Exorcist used when they hunted a monster, because it always got rid of unnecessary surprises and it would also inform them of the power of the creature, because the stronger the alarm sounded, the more powerful the enemy would be.

Now, in that moment, both spells were strongly activated, the pendulum pointed to a direction from where it hung, almost trying to fly, and found Law, and the alarm sounded in his mind so hard it was almost breaking their skull with howling.

The two had been activated at the same time after hours of waiting. Just and exactly at the same time. It was too much of a coincidence.

Both men looked at each other, not quite sure of what to think of that. There could be many theories: that Law had allied with the enemy, that the enemy had make Law a prisoner, that the damn dragon had eaten him... unfortunately that wasn't the time to start making up absurd hypotheses.

It was time to hunt.

Rising at the same time without saying a word, the two men went to their light luggage bags and began to arm themselves. Poisoned daggers in their boots, knives and needles in the forearms, swords, arrows, all the weapons they had, were hidden and locked with practiced speed after years doing the same thing over and over again.

The exorcists could fail once, but they never did twice. So said the code, and so was their duty to carry it out. Law could have failed, but the two of them would not.

So, when they both finished arming themselves in mere minutes and in a way that would make them look like serial killers to ordinary people, they left the room with clear and determined minds. There was only one thing to do, the rest didn't matter, the orders had been clear and they shouldn't worry about anything else.

They would recover Law. Dead or alive.

Can u feel the tension? how everything is gonna go to hell so soon? Also, I don't know if you catch it, but Law's sword it's a present from Cora, I will talk more about him in the future, but for now let's go slow and easy~

And about the next update...*nervously starts to laugh watching the upcoming exams and practical classes*

See u pervers~
