A/N: Sorry for the lack of updates! I've been drawing lately, and doing homework! ;;
Loki: Which she never does…
Mel: Oh shut up, not my fault school sucks.
Lilly: It's your opinion. It's your fault you think it sucks!
Mel: …I hate logic.
Ryoko: But you love log-
Mel: Don't even bother finishing that.

"LOKI!" I was getting really tired of people saying my name…
"Hi Mikoto!" I waved cheerily, walking down the gangplank that led to Alexandria's dock.
"Don't even start with me! Where's Lilly and Vivi, I know they're with you!" She stood at the opposite end, hands on her hips, tail lashing violently behind her.
"Okay, one, his name is Vee now. Second, they chose to come with me, I just convinced them to come! Or did they convince me to take them…I don't r'member…"
"Loki…"
"Yes?"
"YOU'RE AN IDIOT!"
"…Glad you noticed!"
MIKOTO!" Lilly appeared from thin air, bounding down the plank towards her sister. She tackled the genome, wrapping her arms around her neck.
"Hello Lilly!" Mikoto returned the embrace, and released the hyperactive girl.
"Can we say 'mood swings'?" I asked sarcastically.
"…Come down here and say that, you bipolar little freak!" Mikoto hissed, glaring up at me. I shrugged, and continued down the walkway.
"Can-we-say 'mood-swings'?" I asked slow and clear, leaning in towards Mikoto's face.
"Zidane, kill her!" The blonde ordered, starring at me emotionlessly.
Zidane stepped out from behind an archway, unsheathing the dagger at his hip. "As you say, Mikoto!" He replied with a grim smile.
"Holy shi-"
"NOOO! Don't hurt my Loki!" The next thing I knew, I was face down, enjoying the taste of the marble floor. Yuck.
"RYOKO, GET OFF OF ME!" her knees were digging painfully into the small of my back. Damn, she weighs a lot more than she looks!
"Sorry, Lo!" The weight moved, and I no longer had to suffer the floor. I stood up, and glared at the brown haired girl.
"Can we say 'just desserts'?" Mikoto mocked, Lilly and Zidane snickered quietly.
"Well, let's see, shall we? Des-zet, dez-mert, er…a…dumb-ass!" Ryoko burst out laughing behind me, caused by both my comment, and the look of shock on Mikoto's face. I smirked, etching the look into my mind.
"Why you insufferable fool!"
"Keeheehee!"
"In all my time on this planet, I have never had to deal with such an infuriating, annoying, immature, antisocial, insensitive, cold hearted BRAT!"
"No, stop! I can't understand you! Use smaller wooords!" Ryoko begged, shrinking down onto the ground, covering her ears with her hands. "Noooo!"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"Freak!" Eiko stepped off the gangplank, and stood next to Ryoko, glaring at the pathetic knight, who was twitching on the ground like a dead bug.
"…Kehee…"
"Shut up, Loki!"
"Why don't you?"
"I'm not being annoying!"
"Yes you are, hypocrite!"
"Wha?"
"Would you two stop fighting, it's getting annoying!" Zidane stepped in between me and Mikoto, a vein pulsing irritably on his forehead.
"Oh…sorry Zidane,"
"Yeah, okay."
"Where's Vee?" Lilly asked, looking about uneasily.
"He's still on the ship. He got sick on the way here!" Eiko answered dismissively.
"Why are you hear anyway?" I turned my attention to Zidane, and stood there for a second, trying to remember what we were doing in the first place.
"…Oh yeah! Zidane, you have an hour to tell Garnet goodbye, pack your stuff, and come with us to the Iifa tree!"

A/N: Dun dun dun! How will Zidane take this news? Will he follow them blindly, or will he throw a fit about it? Find out, in the next, angst filled chapter!
Loki: What the hell are you doing? Angst? Didn't we have enough of that in Promise Me Forever?
Mel: OF COURSE NOT! You can never have too much good ol' fashioned teenage angst!
Lilly: But wouldn't it be 'good new fashion'?
Mel: … Wha?
Lilly: Because teenager's aren't old…
Ryoko: …Lilly, now would be a good time to run.
