My Fight and Mine Alone
Disclaimer: The characters are not mine, they belong to Clamp, but the plot, and story is mine.
Thank you for all those reviews! Special thanks to Hyper-Hyper-Critic for reviewing since chapter one, and Angel W1ng for telling me about those faults, so I edited the chapters a little! (Sorry again for the grammar! Please tell me that I'm improving!) Oh, and I'm really, really sorry for saying that I'll update weekly and not. It's school! Too much work! Sorry!
Chapter 4: Respect
When they reached the night bar, it was already eight, and the three started working immediately. Although the three were of royalty and nobility, they worked as if they did this everyday, and did so with not so much as a complaint, maybe one or two from Umi, but otherwise no.
It has been a week since the three started working for Yuekito, and they have managed to rent themselves a house with one large room, which they shared, a medium bathroom, a regular kitchen, and a normal living room. Since the castle is still not hiring, Umi had been venting her impatience off on the customers when they tease them, and Hikaru with her innocence. On the other hand, Hikaru started to getting into playing rock- paper-scissors with the customers so they can buy drinks, and Fuu learned more and more about life without regulations and training. She learned that here, respect is everything. With respect, one can walk through here and take something without being questioned, the only thing is, is earning that respect.
By now, all the regular customers of the bar know the three waitresses, and would trust them, although they have questionable pasts. For instance, Umi is the short-tempered one, but would defend the other two anytime, Hikaru is the innocent one, but would fight and help anyone in need, and Fuu is the one who would always be found observing, and deciphering everything, and everybody, but they all know that she is the most reasonable and kind out of the three. Although the customers always tease the three, and Umi tease back, they are more than willing to help the three with their lives.
"Man! We haven't been out here for weeks!" Ferio exclaimed. Ferio, Clef, and Lantis have been staying in the castle training new guards to defend and secure the castle, and they haven't been able to have time to themselves for weeks.
"Come on," Clef said, "we can go to Eagle's Night and catch up on Yuekito." Yuekito are the three's most trusted friend, and although to him, the three are only guards at the castle, he would tip them on who and what's going on.
"Yeah," Lantis added. "he might know something about those deaths."
"Well, what are we waiting for?" Ferio yelled. "Let's go!"
It was just another normal day of work for the girls until suddenly, "Hey!!" Sakura yelled. "Let go!!" A noble grabbed her hand as she tried to pull away. The noble had red eyes, and amber hair, he was rather handsome as well, too bad for his sinister smile, and his eyes glowed with greed.
"You heard her!" Umi abruptly screamed, apparently enraged. "Back off!" When Yuekito tried to move over to help, Fuu pulled him back.
"Umi has a whole lot of energy lately, and trying to stop her is as foolish as trying to stop rain," Fuu answered truthfully.
"Make me!" the noble hissed. "She lost rock-paper-scissors with me, so now she has to come with me tonight, but you're more than welcome to join her."
"Hikaru?"
"I thought that it is only for a drink like usual."
"You tricked her you bastard!" others around them yelled, but one glance from Yuekito and Umi, they quited.
"How about this," Umi started, "if I beat you at drinking, you let Hikaru go, but if I lose, you get me instead." Everyone was as quiet as the night while the noble considered the idea. He looked Hikaru over, then Umi, but his eyes flickered over to Fuu, and grinned.
"No, I out drink you, and all three of you will be coming with me."
"Wha-"Umi started.
"Fine," Fuu said in a firm voice, "but we win, we get to do what we wish with you."
"You're on!" the noble said, thinking that there's no way in hell are some girls are out-drinking him!
And the bet was on. Unknown to the noble, Fuu and Umi drank wine and beer to help rise troops morale at times, and especially since beer makes defenses go down, they sort-of trained in drinking.
After about twenty bottles, the noble was red and was snoring loudly in front of everyone, obviously drunk. Everyone cheered, and started laughing at the noble.
"Now what should we do with this pervert?" Umi thought out loud, sneering.
"Beat him up!"
"Break his arms!" From all over the bar, you can hear ideas being yelled out.
"No," Fuu said. "I have a better idea."
"What was that?" Clef yelled over the loud voices in coming from the bar.
"Come on!" Ferio yelled. As they opened the door, the screams sounded like cheers, and the three moved over to the big circle formed in the middle of the room. There, a red-eyed noble was, shirtless, with an apple in his mouth, on a huge plate with lettuce and tomatoes on it, tied up like a pig. (I know it does kind of suck, but I couldn't think of anything, so my friend suggested it. If you have a better idea, tell me in your review please. Really appreciated!) After the three finished laughing, they made their way over to Yuekito.
"Hey! Yuekito!" Ferio yelled. "What's going on here? You havin' a party without us?"
"Let's just say that the guy asked for more than he can handle tonight, and is now paying the consequences of messin' with my waitressws," Yuekito said, laughing. "Hey! Mind getting' that pig outta here!" he yelled to his customers. "Man, do those three know how to party and kill!"
"Who?" Lantis asked, for once intrigued.
"My waitresses!" Yuekito yelled. "That's who!"
"Hold on, back up!" Clef said, putting a hand up. "You mean three girls did this to that noble?!"
"Unbelievable, huh?"
"Who are they?" Lantis asked.
"Where are they?" Ferio questioned, looking around.
"They have their own home ya know," Yuekito replied, grinning. "Oh, and as for who, they're names are Fuu, Umi, and Hikaru. The noble jumped on Hikaru, Umi out-drank him, and Fuu thought up of this total humiliation."
"Wow!" Clef exclaimed. "Not many girls would do that these days, but really, who are they?"
"I don't know myself, all I know is that they're nice girls, and are from the Houji Kingdom." Yuekito answered.
"Interesting. . ." Lantis said, thoughtfully.
After that talk with Yuekito, all the three could think of were the three girls. From what they've heard from the men, Fuu had blonde hair, emerald eyes, and was the quiet one of the three; Umi was short-tempered, and had blue hair and blue eyes; Hikaru had red hair, and red eyes, and is innocent and naïve. By the end of the night, they all agreed to come here again tomorrow to meet these girls, and know more about their backgrounds. 'Can those three girls know or have anything to do with this new threat?' the three thought.
