"Speaking" 'Thoughts' Flashback (POV switch)

Chapter 6

(Luc's POV)

"Huh?!" Luc spun around in suprise. "Who's there?" He got in a battle stance, his right hand glowing. "Show yourself this instant!"
"It's just me, brother!" Bishop Sasarai waved his hands, afraid of being hit by a spell.
"Shame. If you hadn't shown yourself, I could have attacked you with a spell and said it was an accident. Well, there goes that plan." Luc's hand slowly lost it's glow. "What are you doing here? Have you been following me?!" Luc walked towards the bishop, his eyes full of anger and hatred. "Because if you were..."
"No! I was looking for Nash. I can't seem to find him. Have you seen him? I'm a bit worried...Juan says that his wife got him. Why would his wife be a bad thing?"
"I don't know. And I haven't seen him. If I do, I'll tell him that you're looking for him." Luc began to walk away. Pretty soon he was by the lake. He nearly walked into a woman. "Oh, excuse me...Sierra?!"
"Huh? Oh, no problem Luc. Have you seen a man named Nash?" Sierra asked.
"No...Sierra, why on Earth are you looking for him?"
"Because I think he's been off flirting again. Stupid womanizing husband of mine! As soon as I find him, I'm going to cause him such pain and misery, that he'll be begging to be sent to the inner circles of hell!!!"
"You're his wife?"
"Yes, didn't he tell you about me?"
"He tells alot of people about you, but he's never mentioned your name...well, you could always look for Borus. I'm sure he'd be more then happy to help you look for Nash if it meant causing him extreme pain and agony."
"I'll do that. Thank you." Sierra walked off.
'She is kinda scary when she's mad...I guess she hasn't changed a bit.' Luc shook his head. 'It's getting late...I better head back to the castle.' Luc began to walk back slowly.

(Jacques POV)

"...Captain...? May I take some time off?" Jacques asked in his quiet voice.
"Of course." Geddoe replied simply.
"Thank you." Jacques walked off to the boat. He loved the lake's beauty. He was soon on the deck of the boat. He leaned on the railing as he looked out at the water. 'I never grow tired of the view here...'
"Jacques? Why are you always staring at the lake???" Aila questioned, walking up to him.
"...I love the view...it's so beautiful." Jacques responed.
"Oh....I see. Hey, Jacques?"
"Yes?"
"Why are you always so quiet?"
"That's the way I am." Jacques and Aila continued to talk for the next few hours. Jacques was having fun, which is odd because he usually had more fun just by keeping quiet. It wasn't until late that night that they both realized that they had been talking for hours nonstop.
"It's really late. Maybe we should head back in."
"Yeah..." Jacques walked over to Aila. He gave her a kiss and walked off back towards the castle.

(Caesar's POV)

"Oh no...I slept way too long!" Caesar jumped up and began sprinting towards the castle. 'Albert's going to kill me! No, strike that, Albert's going to get Yuber to kill me!' He had forgotten all about Albert saying that he wanted to talk to him about something...and he wouldn't be too happy about him being late. He run through the door to Albert's room.
"Caesar?! Knock on the door next time! Don't actually try to knock the door down!" Albert yelled.
"Sorry I'm late, but I can explain." Caeasr had already thought of a bunch of excuses, and was having trouble picking one that Albert would actually fall for.
"You're not late," Albert said dully.
"You see...wait, I'm not late?" Albert shook his head. "Oh...I could have sworn I was late."
"Yeah...I kind of figured that."
"Hehe...sorry. Anyways, what did you want?"
"I have a favor I need."
"Okay, go on."
"Sarah's worried about Luc, and he's been acting weird. I'd like you to help us try to figure out what's wrong with him. Even if you have to hire that detective, what's-his-name."
"Kidd."
"Yeah, him."
"Sooooo, what do you mean by 'acting weird'? You have to be more specific then that."
"I was gettting to that." Albert explained the situation to Caesar. ((A/N: I'm not going to type what happened every time it's mentioned.))
"Whoa, wouldn't have expected that."
"That's the point."
"I know! I'll see what I can do, but no promises, okay?"
"I was hoping you'd say that." Caesar started to leave, but stopped and turned around.
"Hey, where's your little demon boyfriend?"
"Right here." Yuber stated behind Caesar, who jumped.
"Don't do that!"
"What did you want?"
"I just want to make sure that you understand that if you ever do anything to hurt my brother, I'll find a way to make your life, and death, a living hell."
"You don't need to worry."
"I'd better not." Caesar then left the room, heading off to have a talk with Kidd.
"There's just gotta be a case...I'm so bored!" Kidd was pacing the dungeon.
"Hey, Kidd! I got a job for you." Caesar called out.
"Really?! What is it?"
"I need you to spy on someone for me...they've been acting weird, and I'm trying to find out what's causing it."
"GREAT!!! So, who is it? How have they been acting?"
"Whoa, calm down there. Alright, it's Luc and he pretty much had an emotional breakdown. Remember...you can't tell ANYBODY. You got that?"
"Never would've expected that...and I won't tell anyone, you can trust me to keep a secret."

I guess the shape would be a square...Alright, I got some Jacques/Aila in there. Too bad it was so short. Sorry, I'll try to make it longer next time...suggest couples, R&R!
