Ahh, Xel in a waitress outfit could it get any better. ^.^
Filia and Xellos walked through the crowded market. Filia's stomach growled wildly and she tapped Xellos on the shoulder. "I'm hungry could we find something to eat?" She asked. Xellos opened an eye to glare at her.
"Your hungry again." He said reaching for his wallet. Filia stuck her tongue at him.
"Hey I don't feed on people's negative emotions and I've been putting a lot of energy into reading this." Filia exclaimed taking out the Holy Magic For Dummies book. He shrugged and showed her his half empty wallet.
"Well I'm almost out of cash unless you have a secret stash." He said and started to poke her in the ribs. Filia took out a small pouch and shook. It made a few jingly noises. They both sighed and decided to sit down at a café. "Saillune is still quite a few days a way. We need to make some quick cash." Xellos sighed. Filia placed her hand on her chin in thought.
"Maybe another waitress job, we got good tips last time." She chirped. Xellos shook his head.
"That'll take too long for the cash supply we need." He replied. Filia placed her chin on the table and closed her.
Hey, Nama-chan. Maybe you should go back to the cabin." She whispered. Xellos looked at her both eyes opened in shock. "Not that I don't want your company. But I shouldn't be dragging this all down with you. I mean you're a prince and you......" Filia stopped as she felt a hand on her hand. She opened her eyes and saw that Xellos was patting her head. She smiled at him and he gave her the usual genki grin.
"Don't worry Fi-chan, were in this together." He chirped. "All we need is some quick money." Both of them reeled their heads to the market streets, hearing lots of noise. There was a small circus troupe marching through the streets.
"Come one! Come All! The Circus Is In Town!" a red clown yelled as he through flyers in every direction. "Take your friends and family to enjoy a great time at the CIRCUS!" Xellos caught one of the pieces of papers the clown threw into the streets. Xellos angled it so he and Filia could read it.
"The Cirque Debormarche is playing tonight. Main attraction the canon girl." Xellos read along with Filia. He looked at her. "You're getting better at reading." Filia smiled and pointed to the bottom.
"Hey, look right there. Extra help needed. Will be paid a great amount." Filia clapped. Xellos raised an eyebrow.
"I dunno, know. Us working as clowns." He sighed. Filia got up and rolled up the piece of paper and bopped him playfully on the head.
"You got a better idea?" she questioned. Xellos shrugged and got up, and nodded his head in agreement.
~***~
Filia and Xellos walked through the big top tent their costumes already placed upon them by the anxious ringleader. Xellos was dressed as a purple and black clown with big floppy feet. Filia was a blue and white clown with bell shoes and an elf hat. They both sweatdropped. "Filia, I can think of something better. Anything as long as I don't wear this outfit." He grumbled. Filia scratched her head and glared at him.
"A little late now don't you....ahhhhh Martina!" Filia yelled pointing at the green haired girl dressed in a light green clown suit. Martina turned her head as she heard someone call her name. She gasped at the sight of the mazoku and dragon.
"Filia! Xellos! What are you doing here? Hey Zangalus come here quick!" she yelled. Zangalus who was dressed in an orange clown suit quickly placed a ramp down and turned.
"Oi, what are you two doing here?" he questioned. Xellos scratched his head.
"We could ask you the same thing." Xellos said as they walked up to them. Martina crossed her arms a large vein very apparent in her forehead.
"I'll tell you why were here. Lina Inverse. When we all left, Lina ran out of cash and she blasted us with a FIREBALL and ran off with Gourry and the others. So to make money we decided to work here!" she yelled. Both Filia and Xellos erupted into laughter. Zangalus cleared his throat.
"And why are you two here together. Alone." He said with a sly grin. Filia blushed and Xellos growled. They were about to explain when the ringleader approached them.
"Thank you, I want to thank you and your elf girlfriend for helping us out. And thank you Zangalus and Martina for travelling with us for so many weeks." He chirped. The four of them sweatdropped.
"Elf? Girlfriend?" Filia said touching her pointy ears and glancing at Xellos. The man smiled and got down on his hands and knees.
"Yes, but I have just a small favour." He cried. "Are star Maria the canon girl is sick and she's are star attraction. So could you four be my new star attractions. He begged. Xellos and Zangalus collapsed while Filia and Martina placed their hands together.
"Yes, we accept." The two girls gushed stars in their eyes. "Us the star attractions." Xellos and Zangalus quickly got up.
"Wait a minute. We never accepted to this!" Xellos yelled. Filia eyed him dangerously and he took a step back in fear.
"We agree." Zangalus sighed avoiding Martina's angry gaze. The ringleader quickly got up and shook all their hands, tears streaming down his face.
"Oh thank you. Thank you, the circus is saved. Thanks to you 4 humble people." He exclaimed.
~***~
It was finally time for the circus to start and Xellos, Martina, Filia and Zangalus were waiting for their cue in the prop area. "So, what the hell do we do out there?" Zangalus asked. Xellos did an irritated shrug and turned to the two girls.
"Well the spirit of stardom will come into our heart and we'll find what to do." Martina replied.
"Ssshhh. I think were up." Filia whispered. The ringleader went into the centre of the big tent and took a deep breath.
"And now our star performers The Zolmagustar Knights!" he yelled giving them a hand.
"The Zolmagustar Knights?" Xellos, Filia and Zangalus questioned to Martina but she already ran out.
"Thank you. Thanks for coming. Martina gushed as she bowed and the three scuttled out. They flushed at the excitement of the crowd. "Now to start off our show. Me and my sidekick Filia will perform our deadly daggers act on those two over there." Martina yelled pointing to the scared Zangalus and Xellos. Filia picked up a couple of daggers on a table.
"Sidekick?" She mumbled getting her aiming. Xellos and Zangalus were strapped into three round tables. Zangalus sweatdropped as Martina accidentally dropped one of her daggers.
"Are those real." He yelled. "Hey Xellos you don't look that worried, why?" he questioned in a squeaky voice. Xellos smiled.
"Well my dragon knows how to throw daggers. And me being a mazoku won't do much damage." Xellos chirped as the table started to spin. Both Martina and Filia took a deep breath and threw. Filia accidentally sneezed through one throw and hit near Xellos' head. The crowd roared with laughter and clapping. Xellos smiled to Zangalus. "See no worries." He replied. Zangalus eyes bugged out.
"Xellos, there's blood." He said. Xellos froze and noticed there was blood. He froze in astonishment. Martina smiled.
"Now second round!" she yelled picking up some more daggers. Xellos growled and yanked the table out of the ground and started to hop away.
"No way. Fi-chan you fool. You hit me I'm not letting a klutz like you hit me with daggers!" he yelled. Filia picked up some more daggers and started to throw them at him, aiming for his head this time. In that much anger Filia didn't realize her tail pop out. The crowd laughed and soon gasped to notice the elf had a tail. "See you can't even hit me now. What bad.......ahhhh Fi-chan don't transform!" he yelled but it was too late Filia grew so angry she reverted to her natural form getting the attention of a couple of Beast men.
"Hey there's the dragon, he was talking about. Let's capture it." They yelled as the dragon flew around shooting lasers at Xellos occasionally. Filia glared down at them and opened her mouth wide a big golden beam forming until he blasted at them, sending them crashing out. Filia calmed down and changed back to her human form.
"Sorry." She whispered to the angry Xellos. The crowd stayed silent until someone got up and started to clap.
"Wow what a great illusions trick. Encore. That elf just made a spell of a fake golden dragon!" the man yelled along with everyone else applauding and clapping. The ringleader rushed back in them smiling at the 4 with gratitude.
The Zolmagustar Knights, everybody!" he yelled as they quickly ran out the tent.
~***~
"Here you go 10 000 each." The ringleader said. "Too bad you can't stay. Must you got Saillune so soon?" he asked. The 4 nodded.
"Bye!" they yelled in unison walking on the way to Saillune. Xellos looked at Martina and Zangalus.
"So you two are travelling with us now?" he asked. They nodded. Xellos looked sharply at Filia. "No more transforming in the open like that." He commanded. Filia nodded her head with a growl and took out her mace and bashed it on Xellos' head sending him flying.
"Fine no transforming!" she yelled as he went up to the stars.
