Zelgadiss, Filia, and Zelas are sitting in beanbag chairs in a light blue room that was filled with various plushies. The trio was all watching T.V., which was currently one of those info-mercial channels.

Zelas: Wow, who knew you could do so much with a vaccum.

Zelgadiss: Wait a minute, what IS a vaccum??

Filia: Hey, it's been awfully quiet.where is that namagomi??

A loud *BOOM* is heard behind a door, which had a sign that read 'Kitchen' on it, near the back of the room. The door bursts open and black smoke pours out from the room.

PurplePixie: *stumbles out of room coughing* Urgh.too much vinegar.

Xelloss: *teleports into room* No, I think it was the fact that you put the temperature up so high that blew up the cake.

Filia: What were you two doing?! He wasn't trying to corrupt your innocent mind or blow up your kitchen, was he? *glares at Xel*

Xelloss: No I didn't corrupt her mind. I didn't even blow up the kitchen this time! ^_^ Guess what. Ky-chan's even worst at cooking than I am!!

PurpleP: T-T Gee.thanks for the compliment, Xelloss.

Zelgadiss: Having worst cooking skills than the fruitcake? Wow, is that possible?

Xelloss: ^_^ Now it is! PurpleP: =.= You people are so cruel.I'm starting to feel glad that I don't own you crazy bunch.

Xelloss: Awww.don't you love us anymore? *gets teary eyed*

Filia: *smashes Xel on the head with Mace-sama* Don't do that. It only makes you look freakier.

PurpleP: Hey, Zelgadiss. *pokes Zel* Remember our deal? Hmm?

Zelgadiss: Urgh.but I don't want too! *glowers* I swore I'd NEVER where that thing ever again!!

PurpleP: Oh come on! I'll leave you alone and then you could have all the coffee that you want! PLEEEEEEEASE? *does puppy-dog eyed thing*

Zelgadiss: *sigh* Fine.*suddenly appears in a dramatic pose in his bunny suit* To the fanfic, and beyond!!! There, I said it. Happy?

PurpleP: Yeah! Okay, you can go get your coffee in the kitchen now! ^_^

Zelgadiss: *races off to kitchen*

PurpleP: Anyways, on with the fic!

Zelgadiss: NOOOO! THE COFFEE POT BLEW UP!!!

Zelas's Christmas Present ^_^

Chapter 5

I don't get it, Xelloss thought as he hung upside-down, tied up to his shoulders in seaweed. He stared at the dancing and screeching tribe people in the cave, then at the 4 sharks down below him. He sweatdropped. Is this mission supposed to be a challenge? He sighed. This is stupid. What did Beast Master want me to do again?

~* Begin Flashback*~

"Xelloss, I have a mission for you," Zelas said as she straightened up.

YES! A mission! "Oooh, a mission!! ^_^ Is it an important mission? Huh? Is it??" Xelloss jumped around with glee. Zelas just sweatdropped.

"Uh.yeah. It's very important. I need you to go to the Bohithian Tribe and retrieve my-my-my PURSE!" Zelas thought quickly. Xelloss facefaulted.

"Y-your purse?!" Xelloss said as he picked himself up off the ground.

"Yes!" Zelas threw an arm over her head dramatically. "Those evil fiends stole my purse when I was innocently talking a stroll one day. I need it back! And I trust that you can go get it for me, Xelloss."

"Uh." My first mission is.to get her PURSE back?! Xelloss sweatdropped.

"Oh, but it'll be dangerous!! You'll have to go through many obstacles to get my purse! I'm starting to have doubts about whether you would be able to do this or not." Zelas said quickly when she saw the exasperated look on Xelloss's face.

"Dangerous?" Xelloss brightened up a bit and struck a dramatic pose that would have made Amelia proud (if she was in existence at the moment). "Don't worry, Zelas-sama! I'll get your purse back no matter what!"

Then Xelloss teleported out.

"*sigh* I can't believe that HE believed that story." Zelas sighed. Suddenly, Xelloss teleported back into her room.

"Hi, Zelas-sama!"

"What?! You finished your mission alreadly??!" Zelas was stunned.

"No, I just came back to ask you where the Bohithian Tribe is."

~*End Flashback*~

Oh, yeah.the purse. Xelloss sighed. Well, if getting it back is as important as it sounds, I guess I should hurry up. The Beast Priest cleared his throat.

"Ahem, uh.I have to go look for my mistress's purse, right now. So, uh.if you don't mind, could any one of you come and untie me?" Xelloss asked politely. ^_^

The tribe people started grunting angrily and pointing at the upside- down priest/general. Then one of the tribe members came towards Xelloss with a torch, and lit the rope that was holding Xelloss in the air.

"My, my, what rude people!" Xelloss tsked. "Feeding a person to sharks isn't very nice. Neither is stealing someone's purse. Shame on you!"

The sharks, seeing that their meal was soon to be served, started gathering around Xelloss. Their jaws snapped as the tribe people did more of their dancing and hooting.

"*sigh* Well, I guess I'll get out of this little problem myself. I can't just hang around here all day, after all!" With that said, Xelloss teleported out of the tight bonds right before a giant shark leapt into the air to bite his head off.

All the members of the tribe had confused expressions on their faces until Xelloss teleported right in front of them. Then their expressions turned into extreme anger. They all charged at the 'defenseless' priest.

"Oh! Are we playing tag now?" Xelloss gave the crowd a slightly mischievous grin before leap-froging over the first attacker and pushing him into the pool of hungry sharks. "Then, TAG! You're it!"

After about 10 more minutes of bashing and chucking people into the shark pit, all of the tribe members were all either knocked out, or fish food. The only one left standing is *drum-roll* Xelloss!

"Well, it was fun while it lasted," Xelloss then walked out of the cave and into the village of small huts. "Now to look for that purse."

~*Meanwhile, on WPI*~

Zelas stretched and yawned, after awakening from a nice, long nap.
"Ahhh, that nap really hit the spot. I haven't taken a nap for years! I almost forgot how nice it could feel," she sat up and then realized that there was a letter on her nightstand. "Huh, who knew that mailmen are brave enough to come back to my island, even after I ate the last one."

The Dark Lord opened the letter and read it:

Dear Zelas,
Greetings, my dear sister. I'm writing this letter to thank you for your help in finding me a place for my new palace. The North Pole is actually a very nice place. It's not hot, like Phibrizo's place. In fact, it's nice and cold (Zelas: Just like you, dear brother.). Imagine all the snow cones I can make here. Anyways, thanks for your recommendation. But even if you did help me find this place, that doesn't mean that you'll be welcomed here. In other words, DON'T COME NEAR MY NEW PALACE!!!
Sincerely,
Dynast

P.S. - Word around says that you've got yourself a general and priest. Is it true?

"Yes, unfortunately I do," Zelas replied to no one in particular. "But I won't for long.MUAHAHAHAHAH!!!" The blonde Dark Lord cackled at the thought of her priest/general. "Hehe, the Bohithian Tribe is known for their violent ways of torturing trespassers in their land. They probably tore that idiot into pieces! Ahahahaha!!"

"Hi, Beast Master! Whatcha laughing about? Did you hear a funny joke?" Xelloss suddenly popped into Zelas's room with a little brown baggie.

"AHHHH! DON'T DO THAT!!" Zelas quickly recovered from her fright when she realized something. "O.O Wait a second.WHY ARE YOU BACK?!!" H-how did he get back!? HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD!!!

"Well, you told me to get your purse back. So I did ^_^!" Xelloss happily handed the little baggie to the stunned Beast Master. Zelas suddenly got out of her shocked stated.

"HAH! You lie! That bag can't be mine, because I didn't LOSE it in the first place!"

"Nope, I didn't lie, Zelas-sama. This is most certainly YOUR purse," Xelloss then pulled out a small wolf plushie. "See, even Mr. Fluffy-Wuffy- Kins is in here."

"GIVE ME THAT!!" Zelas yanked the purse (and Mr. Fluffy-Wuffy-Kins) from Xelloss, and started inspecting it.

"My cigarettes.my money.my special lighter.even Mr. Fluffy-Wuffy- Kins. Wow, this really IS my purse," Zelas then glared back at Xelloss, whom was standing near her bed with his usual genki face. Damn it.I guess I'll have to think of another way to get rid of him. "Well, good job Xelloss. You could leave now. I'll call you back later to give you another mission."

"^_^ Yes sir! Er-ma'am!" With that said, Xel teleported out.

After Xelloss left, Beast Master promptly shoved her face into her pillow and screamed. I don't get it! I thought he was weak enough for those silly humans to take care of! Well, I guess he's not as weak as I thought. After all, he did blow up most of my mansion.grrr. Fine, I'll just have to think of something harder for him to do.And so Zelas started plotting evil ways to rid herself of the pestering priest/general.

PurpleP: Another chapter down, a couple more to go!

Zelas: Good, the faster we go, the better. BTW, I'm not that vengeful towards Xelloss!!

PurpleP: I know, I know. But in this fic, you are! MUAHAHAHA!! I have the power to make characters OOC!! And there's nothing you could do about it!! MUAHAHA--*gets hit in the head with a melted coffee pot* *gets knocked out*

Xelloss: Good shot.

Zelgadiss: Yes, it was, wasn't it? I think I'll call it my this-is-revenge- for-blowing-up-the-coffee-pot-after-making-me-wear-that-bunny-suit-in-front- of-everyone-so-I-hate-you throw.
