Next chpt. here, ready to be read. ^_^
"Queen Xellas." Filia stated not totally believing a phantom image of Xellas was right there. Xellos blinked and regained some of his composure.
"Mother, what are you doing here?" he asked. The phantom image of Xellas scratched her head.
"Are you guys, eloping or something?" she questioned. They both blushed and Filia wildly shook her head.
"No, no, no. But why are you here, Xellas?" Filia asked. She cleared her throat.
"Yes, I want you two to journey towards Saillune and get in contact with Amelia's father." She stated. Filia and Xellos both looked at each other questionally.
"Why should we go to Saillune?" he asked. Xellas narrowed her gaze and jerked her head to the dead mazoku.
"That reason over there. The mazoku society, are completely aware of a presence of a dragon. Not only that but humans, beast men and even rumours of shinzoku the Gods from the otherworlds have heard of this." She exclaimed. Xellos took a quick glance at Filia and turned to his mother.
"So, they found out already. But why Saillune? Why can't we come back to the palace?" he asked. Xellas sighed.
"It's the only safe place now. The other kingdoms have mazoku rulers and I'm not sure who is on our side and who isn't. And our kingdom Xellos is becoming quite dangerous and a few lets say delinquents are running amuck." She said in a calm voice. Xellos placed a chin in thought wondering about Filia's predicament. He looked over to the dragon only to see she wasn't there.
"Fi-chan!' he yelled looking for the missing dragon. "Over here, Nama-chan." She yelled Filia was inspecting the mazoku. Xellas looked curiously at the girl.
"Filia, what in the world are you doing?" she asked as the blonde continued to poke and move the corpse. Filia grabbed the mazoku and stood him up. She grimaced at the strong scent.
"There's a crest on his armour. Maybe they could tell us who it belongs to." She said as she pointed to the crest. Xellos came over and took a closer look. It was a multi-headed red dragon, wrapped around a sword.
"This is the crest of Garv." He stated turning to his mother. Xellas nodded her head and looked sharply at the two.
"That settles it. Get a move on you two. Garv's troops always come after their prey repetitively. When you get to Saillune give me a call. I hope you meet up with Lina Inverse there." She added. Xellos and Filia nodded their heads and prepared to take off in the air until Xellas stopped them. "Wait. No flying, no teleporting, no transforming into a dragon and no magic unless it's an emergency." She said. "Oh yes, you'll be needing these." She replied as two small flashes of light floated toward the prince and the dragon.
"My staff and the dragon's blood sword." He said as he caught the two items that dropped in his hands. He looked over to Filia.
"A sword and book." Filia said eyeing it carefully she read the title and sweatdropped. "Holy Magic for Dummies. How quaint." She said. Xellas nodded her head.
"Yup. You haven't finished your training and Luna's really busy. So just read the book." She said as Filia and Xellos started to walk off. "Good luck and stay safe." She said. Xellos nodded his head when his mother mentally added, "Keep her safe" in his mind. Xellos smiled and grabbed the dragon's hand dragging her off into the distance.

It was getting dark and Filia saw a small Inn up ahead. "Can we stay in an Inn tonight." She asked. Xellos looked at her pleading face and nodded in agreement failing to check his very light wallet. They walked into the cozy Inn and sat down at table waiting for the waitress to come. Filia's eyes shone as the waitress came over.
"How may, I help you two?" She asked. Xellos looked at the waitress.
"We'd like to have some food first and stay the night, as well." He said. The waitress smiled.
"Yes, we have only one room left if that's alright and the hot spring s at the back are open to the guests." She said. "Now what will you have for dinner?' she asked. Filia tapped her chin and her face brightened.
"I'll have the jalapeno hot pocket." Filia chirped. The waitress raised an eyebrow.
"Are you sure Miss? It's very spicy." She said. Filia nodded her head and the waitress shrugged and turned to Xellos. "What will you have sir?' she asked. Xellos thought for a second and light bulb lit up.
"I'll have the shrimp and chicken spaghetti." He said. The waitress nodded and went to tell the chef. Xellos looked at Filia.
"Can you handle, jalapenos? Fi-chan." He asked innocently. Filia growled.
"I like spicy food." She piped. He shrugged and waited for his order, lightly chatting to the dragon. The waitress returned with their orders and Filia and Xellos dug. Filia offered Xellos a jalapeno and he gingerly accepted but he soon drank 10 glasses of water after. Once they were both full. Filia and Xellos decided to go to the hot springs. Xellos tapped Filia just as he was about to change on the female's side.
"Keep your tail in check, for once." He whispered. Filia cringed and kicked him lightly in the leg.
"I've got it all under control, namagomi." She hissed and went over to her side. Xellos smiled slightly and went to his side.

Filia tightened her hold on her towel that was wrapped around her. She swam past a few other girls and saw a real nice spot where the hot water was pouring out of the stone Lion's mouth. Filia relaxed and ignored the stares she was getting. "I love a hot bath." She piped and sunk her head half way into the boiling water.
~***~
Xellos smiled and stretched his arms. He relaxed his head into the water liking the simple tranquility, yet his mind hoped something interesting would happen. Xellos' wish soon came true as he and some other men heard a scream come form the women's' side. Soon the fence that separated the two sides shattered and Xellos saw why the woman were screaming and running for their lives. There seemed to be a small old human man in there. (A/N that's not the reason though. This person reminds me of Happosai, though). The man was obviously a user of magic and was wielding a water made serpent at his hands. Xellos rushed over as he saw Filia getting ready to attack the man.
"My turn." He said as he picked up Filia and chucked her over to the guy's side. "Start saying your prayer's old man because I'm sending you to your maker." Xellos stated. The old man chuckled and jumped on top of the head of his serpent.
"I don't think so, young man. My serpent is too much for you to handle. But I won't mind facing that cute dragon over there." He giggled. Xellos growled and black spheres of energy formed at his hands.
*************************************************************
Run for your lives. The old man pissed off Xellos. Which is worse pissed off Filia or pissed of Xellos? Bye-Bye.
