IMPORTANT! I changed "Merlith" to Gussom or Gossum or whatever because I got the wrong person. Merlith's gonna come in later, don't worry.
"Nice, Gukko, but you put it on backwards, try again," Sir Fey said.
Gukko blushed as he looked down and saw the back of the Solider uniform. It had taken him three hours and help from Sir Fey, Douglas, and embarrasingly Rochelle and Penelope to get on half of the uniform. Now it was backwards! He blushed deeper and went back to change.
"Hmm... Yes, the shirt's right. But you put on a Templar's pants," Sir Fey explained. "That's Douglas's."
Gukko blushed even redder.
"Yes, you have the basic idea, Gukko, but there's a problem- you aren't wearing the headpiece."
"Well... It's a long sstory." All eyes went to Douglas, who reluctantly held up four scorched pieces of the same Soldier headpiece. "I'll just say it involved several Fire Swords and a Last Beserk or two."
"Wow, a Soldier Headpiece put our Gladiator on Critical mode. Let's look for a new one," Rochellecommented.
"Gladiator or headpiece?"
"Nevermind that one, Gukko, borrow my old one. Just try not to touch the Wyrm blood on it. Burns like hell," Sir Fey explained.
"Ahh!" Sir Fey looked up from where he was rewrapping the bandages around Larry's back. Gukko was screaming, and there were a few heavy thuds and a loud crash. "The uniform's possessed!" Gukko yelled from inside the room. The boy tumbled out, the pants over his head and shirt hopelessly tangled around him.
"Finally!" Rochelle nodded her approval. Haylie nodded too.
It had been years that Gukko wanted to wear the costume of a Soldier. Now that it was on, he was unsure about only one sole thing.
How the hell did Soldiers keep from scratching themselves to death?
"Erm, Gukko, I thinkthat Iyou've forgotten the inside, kupo," Larry said from under what seemed to be a huge pile of bandages.
Again, all eyes went to the tall Gladiator. Douglas scowled and dropped down eight pieces of the under part of the same Soldier uniform.
"Again, I'm a Master Soldier, so no need for me to be using my costume," Sir Fey said.
"Finally! We're off!" Douglas exclaimed as Gukko appeared from the room, wearing a lopsided, washed-one-too-many times headpiece.
"Finally," everyone agreed.
