^-^ Here it is part two!! Yay!! Oh I'm so glad people Like Mairon.. I just had to
make a fic about Gourry's brother! now let me cut this out and get to the good stuff!!
*************************************************************************

Lina sighed as she slowly walked along with her companions, she looked at Gourry who seemed
to have done what she had hours ago... stopped listening to the little chatterbox that
circled around Gourry.

They had forgotten what silence sounded like, it seemed as though the constant babble would
never cease, it might have not been so bad if she could tell what Mairon was saying

All she got out of it was words like Monsters, fighting, killing, glory, Gourry and bad guys
... and he never slowed down one bit, all you could really make out was the blur of green
and red.

Anyone who came across the small group would avoid them at all costs, not known what it was
that surrounded the blonde warrior.

Lina stopped and glared at the blur "STOP IT!!!!!! DO YOU KNOW HOW IRRITATING THAT IS!?!?!"

Lina's words never hit Mairon for he was ignoring her, Gourry thought about what had
happened last time she seemed that mad, it was a very painful experience for everyone.

"Mairon hold still and be quiet for a little bit" Gourry said rubbing his poor aching head,
it was worse then trying to figure out Lina.

Mairon stopped right in front of Gourry, across his face was a smile of the utmost evil,
"Gourry.." Lina started as she grabbed him by the shirt "...Get him to go AWAY!!"

"But Lina... I don't kno-" "Get him to go away he'll listen to you!!" Gourry thought about
this for a bit, Lina let go of Gourry to let him think.

Mairon turned his evil little smile towards Lina then jumped up and down laughing and
pointing at her "ahHA!! I know why you want me to go away!!... afraid I'll replace you huh
huh HUH???!!?!?"

Lina silently started her incantation for a really huge fireball, Gourry smacked his fist
into his other hand "I have it!" he announced proudly then turned towards Mairon

"Mairon.. aren't you supposed to be in Kimlan training?" Lina stopped her spell and stood
watching the pair.

Mairon smiled "Nope!" Gourry scratched his head "But I thought you were supposed to train
there for another couple years..."

Mairon laughed "I thought so to!!" Lina and Gourry looked at him puzzled, Gourry finally
asked the question they both wanted to know "Why aren't you there then?"

Mairon shrugged "Dunno... I think they wanted me to go out and really train and fight
monsters..." Mairon speech started speeding up, Lina and Gourry both knew where it was
heading.

"Come on Mairon.. your supposed to be training there so your going to.." Lina said sternly,
mentally happy that they might be able to get rid of the little pest.

Mairon of course was still ignoring her, Gourry finally nodded "Lina's right you have to go
back and finish your training... come on" he said grabbing Mairon's hand "..We'll take you"

Mairon happily went along with them again he started in with his talking, Lina was ready to
kill him but he would soon be gone... or at least that's what she kept telling herself.

It was late when the group reached Mahrea a town only two days away from their destination,
they had found an inn and had gotten three rooms.

They all then went to go and get something to eat, Lina hoped the boy would eat instead of
talk maybe then he'd be quiet.

Lina's jaw would have been stuck to the ground from shock but there was food on the table
so she was eating instead.

What shocked her was Mairon's eating skills, although when it came to eating everyone was
slow compared to Lina but he could talk and eat at the same time without loosing anything
in his mouth.

And of course she learned this first hand because Mairon was again talking in that tone she
couldn't translate very well.

Gourry practically had one huge sweetdrop stuck to his head through out the meal, it was
hard for him to keep Mairon safe from Lina.

While at the same time staying in good with Lina, but he'd get some sleep tonight, that way
he could face the job he had ahead.

After the meal Lina decided she wanted to take a nice hot bath to help her relax, "Just two
more days 'till we get to Kimlan, then it'll be just Gourry and me..." she said to herself.

No matter how much she tried to tell herself otherwise, she had feelings for the brave
warrior, she just couldn't seem to tell him though

"Maybe someday.." she let herself relax in the hot water, and reflected on her long journey
with Gourry, remembering the good days and the bad.

After her bath she returned to her room and slipped into her little nightgown, the one with
little hearts, last time she had it on.. well it didn't turn out like she had planned, but
this time was different.

She stayed in her room trying to get to sleep but like usual she couldn't, Gourry was always
so nice about it when she'd come to him when she couldn't sleep... of course she couldn't
sleep alone very well.

She picked up her blanket and pillow and moved silently down the hall to Gourry's room, she
gulped and knocked on the door "Gourry?.." she whispered.

The door opened with a slightly sleepy looking Gourry, obviously he had gone straight to
bed after dinner, she blushed a little and smiled "I..i couldn't sleep alone.."

He smiled and let her in, then proceeded to his bed where he took his blankets and set them
on the floor, Lina thought about how sweet it was of him to always do that for her.

Of course he offered her the bed but she wouldn't take his bed while he slept on the floor,
they both set up their blankets and sat down

Gourry smiled "Well I'll see you in the morning then.." "Gourry?.." she said in a low voice
"Hmm?" he looked at her ready to hear what she had to say

Her eyes looked down "..Would you rather hang around with Mairon then me?" Gourry scooted
closer to her and gently lifted her chin up "Of course not"

She looked into his eyes, "Mairon may be my brother but.. he's quiet a.. well more then a
handful anyway.. besides I said I'd protect you and I keep my word"

Lina was overcome by that feeling, it only happened once in a while when she and Gourry
were close like this, it hardly ever happened, the air felt as though it was full of magic.

Gourry felt the same, Lina made him feel so alive, they leaned closer, their lips were
centimeters apart "Watcha doing!?!?!?" echoed through the room as Mairon bounced in

Immediately Lina and Gourry snapped back to their original spots on their blankets, Mairon
sat next to Gourry and looked at Lina for a second before turning back to Gourry "I can't
sleep... I'm too excited!!"

Gourry looked at the blankets in Mairon's arms "You want to stay in here don't you?" Mairon
nodded his head, Gourry sighed and nodded.

Lina was secretly planing the death of Mairon... something slow and painful, soon the small
group was all ready for sleep.

Gourry immediately went out when he laid down, Lina was up thinking about Mairon's soon
departure and Mairon was again talking.

"Two more days just two more days... if he'll live that long" thought Lina as she drifted
off to sleep with the babbling of Mairon in her head.
