Chapter 14:Triple Trouble
A/N: Thanks to all who reviewed! You guys are the greatest! T_T Gomen ne for the
very very late chapter. By the way, the Grau and Grou twins' concept is borrowed
from Sherra-sama, and she gave me permission too, so don't sue me.
Disclaimer: Slayers does not belong to me *sobs*
By the way, my Mint-chan taught me how to save my stuff in webpage so that all the formats remain. Wohooo, I love Mint-chan!! Arigato!!
Ara-chan: Arigato for your long and very detailed review!! Hai. I know Lina and co are kind of OOC, I'll try to make their personalities better. But the problem is, they're not supposed to use magic in public, so I guess you'll just have to deal with Lina beating the crap out of everyone. Gomem ne, but I like Dynast A LOT, so there'll be a lot of Dynast scenes. And since Sherra follows Dynast everywhere…there'll be lots of Dynast X Sherra. About dolph, sorry, but I prefer her to be less insane. I don't like her when she's nuts. And about the Zelas Dolphin rivalry, it's just an internet rumour, and I don't intent to make them fight in this fic because they're supposed to fight Shabby, not each other.
Appollyon: Ohh, it's hilarious? I was hoping that I could add more humour ^^
Sherra-sama: Heh…sorry if I mix up the states and stuff. I don't live in the States and I had to reply on a rather pathetic map. *Sigh*
Monicuz: Oh don't worry, Dolphin and Lanngourt will end up together, so will Dynast and Sherra and everyone else.

:: Blah blah blah :: = Norst's thoughts.
~*~
"Gimme back my bacon you ****ing animal!!" Lina Inverse, ex-dra mata hollered as she chased after a white fox, while brandishing her butter knife. The Lina-gumi are currently in a café, eating breakfast. Of course, a typical breakfast with Lina and company is never complete without food fights and lots of chaos.
"Somebody…Help me!" Luna moaned.
"Lina-san! It's unjust to bully a helpless starving animal!!" Amelia, the justice freak shrieked at the top of her voice, waving her fork around. Gourry, delighted that there's no one to fight for food with him because Lina was currently chasing a fox around, stuffed bacons and pancakes into his mouth so that he could eat his fill before the red head came back.
Zelgadis sighed and took a sip of coffee to calm his nerves. He needed coffee, lots of coffee when he's with Lina and company, not to mention two mazoku lords who were currently enjoying the 'show' and a knight of Ceipheed.
"Go! Norst! Go!" the Zelas and Phibrizo cheered.
Suddenly a streak of white dashed under the table, with a rampaging ex sorceress hot on its heels. However, Lina forgot that the table wasn't very high and…well…the outcome is very predictable.
Eggs, bacon, milk, pancakes, basically anything you find on a breakfast table flew at all directions, splattering on the walls and people.
"Gotcha! Return me my bacon!!" Lina crowed, gripping the struggling Norst tightly around his neck, oblivious to the destruction she had caused. But she looked up when a shadow fell on her.
"LINA INVERSE!" Luna shrieked, eggs dripping down her face. Her sister giggled nervously.
"Lina-san! This is soo unjust! How can you blah blah blah blah justice shall not allow this blah blah blah blah how could you!!!" Amelia climbed on top of a table and delivered her justice speech, before crashing down when the table buckled under her weight.
"****" Zelagdis grumbled while fishing a piece of bacon from his coffee, while Gourry continued eating.
"Whahhaha! Food fight!!" Phibby shouted in glee and threw a pancake at the angry manager.
***
"Blah blah blah do you know how much trouble you could have caused!??" Luna rage on, screaming at Lina who was cowering in her seat while the others watched the great and might ex-sorceress getting reprimanded by her even more terrifying sister.
"I agree!!" Amelia nodded her head and started her lecture on justice and how bad it was of Lina to disrupt their breakfast. They were now parked outside a forest after being chased for miles by traffic policemen and the café's manager when they dashed out of the café and sped as fast as they could away from the town.
:: Heh heh, serve the girl right for strangling me. But she's rather interesting…:: Norst giggled inwardly, while massaging his neck. :: Hmm, I wonder how Dynast-sama is now. :: The fox froze when he saw something flash by at the corner of his eye. :: Nani? :: His fur stood on end when he felt a strong sense of danger.
"Blah blah blah blah if you ever do that again I'll ARGH!" Luna yelped when Norst jumped onto her and started tugging at her pants. "Get off!!"
:: Listen to me!!! :: Norst then ran to the window and pointed his paw towards the direction of the forest, jumping out and down franctically.
"What the hell is that crazy animal doing??" Phibrizo frowned.
""I think it's trying to tell us something." Gourry said brightly. The rest of the gumi stared at him, as if unable to accept that he thought of an explanation before them.
:: Wooho yogurt brains! Well done!! :: Norst cheered. Lina rolled her eyes. "Yeah, as if you know what."
"I do." Gourry smiled. :: Way to go!!! I luv ya, jellyfish!! :: Norst pranced around the van happily.
"He wants to pee!!" The ex swordsman said confidently. Norst facefaulted. :: I should have known…::
"Well then, don't come back until you've finished." Zelas said and threw the fox outside.
***
Norst sat in the snow, feeling very hepless. :: If only I could talk. Damn reincarnation. Of all things I have to reincarnate into an animal. :: Deciding that it was no use sitting around doing nothing, the fox decided to venture into the forest. :: It's about time I prove my worth…::
Suddenly, someone grabbed him by his tail and dumped the poor fox into a sack.
:: Oh no! I'm sooo dead!! :: Norst grippbed the sack with his teeth and proceeded to tear the cloth behind, only succeeding in straining his jaws. :: Itai! Damn, I'm not Dynast-sama's priest for nothing! :: He growled and tried to teleport out. But to his shock, electricity cursed through his veins when he tried to phase out. After a few more tries, a smoking Norst collapsed in the sack, his eyes swirling.
:: This is bad, Very bad. My captor is someone with powerful magic capabilities…Is it Ruby-eye? If it is, I'm dead. Don't worry Norst…I bet Lina and the rest will notice my disappearance very soon and look for me…I hope…::
***
"Don't ever do that again or I'll kill you!" Luna finished her lecture and stomped to the front seat. "Greywords, drive!" The knight ordered. And they drove off…Without realising that Norst was missing. (A/N:Mwahahhahahahaha)
~*~
"Sherra-chaaaaaan!!!"
Sherra jumped when two small bodies jumped onto her, squeezing the life out of her." Grau! Grou!" a startled Sherra gasped before crashing to the floor from their weight.
"Ne, we missed you so much!!" Grau yelled, his big green eyes sparkling with tears.
"Did Dynast-sama bully you!"?" Grou asked in concern, still grabbing on to Sherra's shirt.
"…" (This is Dynast)
Sherra sweatdropped while trying to pull the hyper twins off her. "Ne, you guys are twins again?"
"Hai, I'm older!" Grau said proudly.
"Nani!? I'm older!" Grau retorted.
"I am!"
"Am not!"
"I am!"
"Am not!" And the quarrel continued.
"Do ahou" Dynast muttered.
"Have anyone seen Raltaark or Ralshak?" Garv asked suddenly. "It's not fair!! How come Dynast gets all his servants back I don't? Well, Val is an exception."
The aqua haired boy nodded. "Yeah, I'm not your servant anyway. Just your fan. But that's in the past."
"Hey!"
"Do ahou." Dynast muttered again. Garv whacked him. "Did you watch too much Slam Dunk or something?" he yelled.
"How old are the both of you now?" Sherra asked, after breaking the twins apart. They were both identical, mirror images, they're even dressed exactly the same. Blue shirt, white shorts, black jacket, plus a cute grey cap on their heads. And they're still as childish and immature as ever, but the serious streak that would appear at times is gone, since they're true blue innocent kids now.
"Nine." Grau told her while glaring at his twin.
No! We're ten!" Grou corrected fiercely.
"Nine!!"
"Ten!"
"I'm telling you we're nine!!"
"We were nine last month!!"
"Our birthday is next month!!" Grau argued.
"Kami-sama…They don't even know how old they are and when their birthday is." Vrabazard muttered.
"Such a unique choice for servants…" Lanngourt said in amusement. Dynast glared at him, but Sherra nodded tiredly. Dolphin just laughed in her usual easy-going way.
***
"Ahh…I'm tired." Grau whined as he dragged his feet along the snowy pavement.
"Evil Dynast-sama, fancy making us search for Raltaark and Rashark!!" Grou moaned.
"Yeah, we're just kids." Grau agreed.
"Ahh…Let's rest a while." The other twin sighed and leant against the glass of a restaurant. Grau nodded and sat down on the icy pavement.
"Man, this is child abuse! How dare he bully a nine-year old kid." He whined.
"Ten." His twin corrected.
"Nine!" Grau protested.
"Ten!" Grou argued and turned in another direction.
"Nine!" Behind him, Grau snapped. Grou was about to yell back when something caught his eye. He grabbed his brother's hand and ran towards the direction.
"C'mon!"
"Nani!?"
"I think I saw Raltaark!" Grou explained. "Great! He's going into a café! Let's follow him!" he cried, stopping in front of a building.
"Erm, bro, are you sure that's a café!?" Grau asked, pointing at a sign.
"What is it then?" Grou frowned, looking up at the sign that Grau was pointing. "It's a…" he squinted, trying to read the words. "Pub. No one seventeen and below is allowed. Identity Card would be asked for. "
"…"
"…"

"Namagomiiiii!!!" Filia screeched at the top of her voice while trying to hit Xellos.
"Nyah nyah, can't catch me!!" the purple haired fruitcake teased, which did not improve Filia's wrath at all.
"That guy is courting death." Rugradia sighed. Beside him, Sylfiell smiled weakly. Being with the two is really energy draining. There wasn't even a moment of peace, not even at night. Those two fight in their sleep too.
Bang Crash Kabooom *Sound of glass breaking**And sound a lot of people screaming*
"What the…" Rugradia sweatdropped when he saw a large hole in the window of a departmental store. Filia stood there, her mace in her hands, staring at the broken glass in horror. Xellos burst out laughing. Beside him, Sylfiell gave a small shriek.
"Ru…Rugradia-san!!! Police!!"
The water dragon king's eyes widened when he saw a couple of security guards running towards them, batons in their hands. They turned around and saw even more guards coming their way. There was no chance of escaping.
"Oh nooooooo"
1 hour later…
"I can't believe our luck!!" Rugradia moaned. Sylfiell burst into a fresh bout of tears.
"It's all that namagomi's fault!" Filia grumbled." Speaking of that garbage, HOW DARE HE RUN AWAY AND LEAVE US IN THE LURCH!!" the furious dragon wailed, punching the walls.
"Enough!" Rugradia snapped. "The main problem is, how are we going to get out of this mess!? And if we get out of here, I'm going to kick Xelloss's ass to the stars above."
After they had broken the window, guards surrounded them and dragged all of them to the police station, insisting that they were robbers. Xelloss, knowing what is happening phased away in the nick of time. Now the three of them are stuck in a tiny prison cell with only a small slot for sunlight to enter, until someone comes to bail them out.
"Should we teleport out?" Filia asked in despair as she sat on the hard bunk bed at the corner of the cell.
"Yeah, then we'd be criminals on the run." Rugradia muttered.
"Well, it wouldn't do us any good if we end up in jail." Sylfiell sniffed. "I wish Gourry-san was here."
Suddenly, the cell's door burst open and a policeman appeared.
"Nani!? Are we free to go?" Filia asked hopefully. The policeman ignored her and pushed in someone else.
"New occupant. All of you shall stay here until the time for your trail arrives." With that, he slammed the heavy metal door and walked away.
"Is it the namagomi!?" Filia muttered and look up. Then she froze.
"Kami-sama. What are you doing here!?" Rugradia asked the new arrival in shock.
Sylfiell merely stared. "Isn't that…?"
~*~
A/N: Mwahahahhaha, who is the new arrival?? Is it Vaalwin? Or Rashaark? Or Lei?? What is gong to happen to poor Norst? When will the Lina-gumi realise that he's missing? Will they find him? What will happen to Grau and Grou? How can they enter the pub? What happened to Xelloss? Where did her go? Will he come back? Will Filia and the others ever get out of jail? Ahh, so many questions, so little answers. Don't worry, all the answers would be found in the next chapter ^^Stay tuned! And please review!!
