"Isn't this wonderful? So warm and wonderful?" said Saej in a sarcastic tone. He was not only complaining about the feelings, but also literally the warmness of the room.

"Can't you just shut up for one second?" asked Gaaz, irritatedly, sipping his hot chocolate. "I'm only out like this once in a while!"
"I'll say whatever I want!" screamed Saej back.
"Or maybe..." said Verath, rising up from behind them, his eye twitching. "YOU COULD BOTH SHUT UP!"
He slammed their heads together as he said this. There was a resounding bang, hot chocolate spilled and mixed with ice water, and Saej and Gaaz shut up. Saej stuck his tongue, and a finger, out at Verath. Xelfan12 and Xelkitti were laughing.
"geez. For three beings who have to share one body, you guys seem like you hate each other." Said Xelfan12. "Well, when we split apart," started Verath.
"We each take some traits from Verath the Collective," continued Saej.
"And sometimes those traits dissagree with each other." finished Gaaz.
"Oh,so is that why Verath contradicts himself so often?" asked Xelkitti, taking a large swig of hot chocolate, as Xelfan12 put his hand over his mouth, laughing.
"If we were Verath the collective," started Verath.
"We would definitely," continued Saej.
"Have kicked your ass for that comment." finished Gaaz. Xelfan12 burst out laughing.
"I don't see what's so funny." Xelkitti said to him. "I think that the way-"
She was cut off by Xelfan12, who finished. "they talk is very creepy." He burst out laughing again, but Xelkitti just sweatdropped, and inched away from him. What was in his hot chocolate?
"Oh yeah!" she said, talking to Verath. "I have something to ask you. I wanted to know how you-"
Verath cut her off, and finished. "How I managed to be Ryuzaku, mozaku, and human?" Xelkitti gave a disturbed nod. It was bad enough that the three of them finished each others sentences, but this was freaking her out.
"Uhhhh, do you mind letting people finish their own sentences? This goes for all of you." she looked at Saej and Gaaz, who gave her the thumbs up, although she severely doubted that they would follow that rule.
"Very," started Verath.
"Well," continued Saej.
"Then," finished Gaaz. Xelkitti just looked at them. They all smiled in unison, a big, goofy, 'am I annoying, or what?' smile. The smile quickly turned into bleeding holes after Xelkitti punched all three.
"Damn! If you keep doing that, I'm gonna have to eat through a tube!" said Verath, counting his teeth, and stroking his jaw, checking for damage.
"Whoops. Sorry.' said Xelkitti, in a not-sincere-at-all voice.
"Well, as I nearly just bit off my tongue, I'd better start before it falls off." said Verath, to Xelkitti's alarm. "Just kidding!" he said, as he caught another one of Xelkitti's punch. Apparently, this one was the most like Verath in terms of annoying. "Now, seriously. I'm starting. And this concerns all of you, so listen. Wait, not you Saej and Gaaz. Go do something else. you know this already." Saej and gaaz walked over to the giant jelly bean dispenser, and immediately began trying to forcefeed each other black liquorice jellies, the closest thing to death you will ever taste.
"Well, what I'm going to tell you is from Verath the Collective's subconcious." Verath said, to an increasingly interested Xelfan12 and Xelkitti. "When we are all fused, that is where we lie, so we have access to this knowledge when we are seperate." Xelkitti and Xelfan12 looked at each other for a second, worked it out silently, and nodded happily. "As you already know, I, the human part, was created out of the sheer will to live in one whole piece. However, the Ryuzaku and Mozaku parts were not just created for any purpose. They were created specifically for this experiment, in which it would be determined whether or not a ryuzaku and mozaku could live conjoined. It was to be a test experiment. A prototype of sorts."
"You're a prototype? That sucks!" said Xelfan12, in an out of character out burst. Xelkitti slapped her hand against her face, then slapped the back of Xelfan12's head. "Geez. But seriously. Aren't prototypes the ones with all the bugs that they work out in later models?"
"Yes, well, it usually does suck being a prototype," Verath continued. "But sometimes you get some special features the mass produced models can't have. unfortunately, we, meaning Verath the collective, were dropped as soon as it was seen that we could not hold together very well. Fortunately for us, that wonderful Mozaku, Xellos put us to use."
"I agree!" said Xelfan12, hardily. "Xellos is awesome!"
"Yeah, he gave us jobs, too." said Xelkitti. just then, several black jelly beans hit her head. She turned around slowly, and saw Saej and Gaaz, frozen in a fighting position, but wide-eyed in fear of what they'd just done. "You guys just don't get it! Do you like being punched or something?" Xelkitti asked, as she turned their faces into bleeding masks of their former selves. She sat down again, and motioned for Verath to continue.
"Yes, well," he said. "I also serve as a peacekeeper for these two. They're fine and upstanding Mozaku and Ryuzaku on their own, but together-" Saej and Gaaz flew by, Saej attempting to give Gaaz a wedgie, and Gaaz attempting to give Saej a wet willy. "well, you see what I mean. Anyway, that's about it. unless, of course, you want to hear the important stuff." Xelfan12 sat up attentively, as he nodded his head, in unison with Xelkitti's.
"Well, ok..." said Verath. "but some of this may disturb you. Well, first of all, I'm guessing you want to know who it was that performed this experiment?" asked Verath. Xelkitti and Xelfan12 nodded eagerly, for about the 100th time in half an hour. "Well, it was actually two people. One of them, you should know very well. The other, you should have at least heard of."

Xelkitti and Xelfan12 got closer to Verath. "They go by the names of Luna Inverse and Beastmaster Zelas." Xelkitti and Xelfan12 moved backwards in shock.
"No way, we would've known!" said Xelkitti. "Xellos would have-"
"Uhhh, think about it, Xelkitti." said Xelfan12. "Remember Lord Xellos's trademark line?"
"Oh yeah," she said.
"Now, to the part about you two." said Verath, much to Xelkitti's and Xelfan12's surprise.
"Huh? I thought this was about you!" said Xelfan12.
"Well, it branches off. And you two probably don't know this, so you might as well listen. As you know, Xellos is a general and a priest. Well, Mozaku don't just get a title. They're designed for it. Apparently, the experiment Zelas performed lead to more questions, such as what would happen if two mozaku were fused? Simple. In a word, Xellos."
"Really? you mean she used her first try at it as her general priest?" asked Xelfan12.
"Isn't that kind of reckless?" asked Xelkitti.
"No, because she didn't. You see, she did have a first try, and it was not Xellos. However, the Mozaku didn't stay together as long as she wanted them to, so she dumped them. However, they retained their powers."
"And this has to do with... Whoa. Shit. You're lying." said Xelkitti, catching on.
"No, I'm not. You two were the prototype for a general priest. You are practically the brother and sister of Xellos, and on top of all that, you each have the power of a general and a priest lying dormant inside you."
Xelkitti and Xelfan12 looked shocked. Was all this true? Or was this Verath really just some crackpot human they'd picked off the streets for a host? He sounded truthful.
"Well," continued Verath, as if nothing earth-shattering had been discussed. "We should really continue planning, guys. Guys?" Xelfan12 and Xelkitti were too busy staring at a blank wall, trying to work out what had just been discussed to hear anything Verath said.
"Oh well. I warned them..." he muttered to himself, as he motioned for Gaaz and Saej to sit down.
