Cookies for Gourry

by AeroGirl7986

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Hey all! This is my second fanficcie, & it's a long one! It's, of course, a G/L fic, & greatly involves Zephilia & the Inverses (including Spot!). There may be out-of-characterness & lovey-doveyness ahead; recommended for girls only (but, hey! If you're a dude & into that, I ain't gunna judge!), so BEWARE! (roar!) With that out of the way, please ENJOY:D

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Slayers or any of its characters. Slayers is owned by Hajime Kanzaka, Rui Araizumi and some other people. I think that should go without saying, but hey, don't feel like getting sued today!

CHAPTER ONE

Lina Inverse and Gourry Gabriev were on the road, again. But, this time, they were headed to a place a little different, and somewhere that could scare the daylights out of Lina. The destination was Zephilia; or maybe to be more exact, Zephilia City, the place where Lina's family reside. Of course, Lina was pretty nervous about going back home, not to mention, she'd have to see her very-scary elder sister Luna ...

Gourry, who noticed Lina slowing down, turned around and asked, "Oi Lina, why are you slowing down? Hurry up or you'll get lost!" Lina perked up, trying to strut ahead of him. "How could I get lost when we're travelling into MY home country; and I am NOT slowing down! I just got lost in thought, that's all!" she roared. "Oh. What were you thinking about?" he asked non-chantaly. "Since when did you ever cared about what I think?" she snapped back, blushing a bit. "I dunno. I guess since I'm your protector! I should care about what you think. So ... what were you thinking about?" he asked again. "I was thinking about how about I Dragon Slave you, right here, right now!" she replied, with a playful grin on her face. Even though he saw that she must have been joking, he didn't want to take a risk. "OK, OK. If you really don't want to talk about it, we won't." he said, waving his hands out in front of him. She stared up at him, then gave him a smug smile.

L: You know, for my protector, you give up kinda easily.

G: I just don't feel like being Dragon Slaved today, that's all.

L: Aw, you're really worried about that? Hehe! It was only a joke, Gourry! You should know that. Well, I guess if you really wanna know what I was thinking about, I was wondering how my family will react, me coming back home and all. Especially getting reunited with Luna ...

A chill ran up her whole body; Luna had that kind of effect on Lina. Gourry looked at her, and smiled. "Don't worry, Lina. I won't let anything happen to you!" he said, putting his arm around her. Lina blushed, "Gourry, ... thanks!" she smiled. With that, Gourry and Lina looked at what lied ahead. Low and behold, they stopped at a cliff that overlooked a large city, with sunlight hitting down on them and the wind picking up Lina's mantle.

"Well, we made it, Gourry. This is Zephilia City."

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Hi! Yeah, I know that the first chapter is super short, but don't worry! There's definitely more to come, and they won't be this short, either! I just wanted to start it off as their way to Zephilia, and start to second chapter at Zephilia, that's all. Oh, and about the out-the-characterness of this fic, there might be A LOT of that in here; what can I say? Trying to get in their heads can be challenging, but I will try my best to keep them in character. This is actually my second fanfic I've written, but I'm sure that shouldn't be an excuse. But, I know, once I get the hang of it, I could easily portray Lina & Gourry from their point-of-views in no time. But, hey, next to come, we get to catch a glimpse of Lina's hometown (or at least from the little bit of info I found on the Web & a lot from my imagination), & Gourry will be reunited with a someone that he met in the past. Thank you for your support by reading my story; I worked really hard on it, so it does mean a lot to me that you are reading it. Don't forget to review, also! THANK YOU:)
