Friendship epilogue (The missing Tiara)
Another day, another week, this was the time that had passed since Lina had rescued Naga from the treachery of her father's subjects. But the peacefulness was not meant to last.
'L I N A! Where are you! Come down here at once!' yelled Naga.
'What's the matter! Stop making such a racket, Naga!' yelled back Lina.
'You KNOW what's my problem! You know!' shouted Naga.
'What do you mean?' asked Lina.
Naga scowled,' Where is my tiara? Tell me!' yelled Naga.
'I can't believe that you're accusing me! Why would I take your dumb tiara!' exclaimed Lina.
'How would I know! You're the only other person in this room, in this inn, who knows I have a tiara!' cried Naga.
'But you wear it ON YOUR HEAD! You practically show it off to every person who sees you!' retorted Lina.
Naga made a frustrated sound,' Who else could have stolen it then!'
'You! You probably left it somewhere!' said Lina, exasperated.
'I DID NOT! I'm not stupid like you are, Lina Inverse!' cried Naga.
'I AM NOT STUPID! FIREBALL! ' shouted Lina.
Naga was hit right in the face, she retorted with a Freeze Arrow. Lina attacked Naga with more Fireballs, as did Naga with Freeze Arrow.
It had been about an hour when they stopped, too exhausted to go on any more with their quarrel.
'Now... let me have my... tiara back,' gasped Naga.
'Like I said...I...don't...have it,' replied Lina, she too was gasping for breath.
Naga fumbled away to sit down and have a cocktail drink, while Lina went to polish her sword, drinking a coke. (Just pretend they have cokes and other soft drinks)
Angry, Naga searched Lina's side of the room, even though it was highly unlikely that Lina had taken her tiara.
She searched in and out of the drawers, she finally decided to stop and follow Lina out to eat.
'So, did you find it?' asked Lina.
'Hmph,' replied Naga.
'Guess you haven't. Told you, I didn't steal it,' muttered Lina.
Naga ignored her, the tiara was the only thing that reminded her of her family, of which she did not see often, as they usually tried to dress her up in floppy and annoying clothes that got in the way. She needed to be out and about with Lina, free, but that didn't mean that she wanted to forget them. Naga sighed, ate her meal and got up.
'Hey! You alright? You usually eat more than that! You don't have to go again, do you?' inquired Lina, still feeling a little cheezed from last time.
'No, that tiara is the only thing of me that is my family,' said Naga.
Lina cringed,' Oh, sorry… Um, so like, do you want me to help look for ir?'
Naga shook her head,' Nah, it's ok, Lina. I'll find it.'
Lina shrugged, but kept an eye for the diamond encrusted, golden tiara, which had a ruby in the middle.
Naga had been sipping her cocktail of wines, highly unusual and still surprising to Lina, who pull at her shoulders and shook Naga.
'Hey! Snap out of it! Really! We'll find your tiara, don't you worry!' and with that, Lina ran off, searching for the tiara.
'Thank you, Lina,' whispered Naga, cracking a smile.
Lina ran around town, asking if anybody had seen or stolen the tiara. She received many shaken heads, and glares from the townspeople. Some even grumbled that she should take care of her own things, there were thieves in town.
'Oh, so that's probably what happened!' exclaimed Lina, remembering that a man had shoved past Naga, with his hands over his head, probably swiping Naga's tiara.
She ran back to Naga, who was sitting on the side of the fountain.
'Hey, Naga. Remember that guy who shoved you? Well, I heard that thieves are in town, so perhaps he is one of them! Let's get you tiara, and relieve our gold at the same time!' exclaimed Lina.
'AH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! Yes! Let's show them what happens when they mess with the Great Naga and her junior partner! AH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!' laughed Naga.
Lina gave out a groan of exasperation and followed Naga into the inn, where the thieves were supposed to be resting.
'AH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! I've come for my tiara! Give it back!' laughed Naga.
Lina grabbed a rough looking man, who was the leader and said,' Well? Give to her, she isn't gonna be nice if you don't,'
'Let me go! We didn't do nothing! We haven't even stolen anything since two days ago!' he exclaimed.
Lina snorted and punched him, she turned to the others,' Don't tell me that crap! All thieves steal to survive and if they can't they die! Now, tell me where it is! NOW!'
Naga watched and stared hard at the thieves, she thought that they were telling the truth, but so was Lina, thieves needed to steal to survived. That was why thieves are thieves, so she grunted in disgust and pulled Lina away.
'Lina, I think they are telling the truth, but they are pathetic,' said Naga.
'WHAT! Yes, there ARE pathetic!' exclaimed Lina, chucking the leader to the townspeople who were watching.
Naga sighed, it was boring it seemed that there was no point in trying to find the tiara. She figured that it was lost and never to be found again. Naga put her head into her hands. Lina stepped up and put an object in front of Naga's face.
'Hey Naga, guess what I got!' Lina said.
Naga looked up slowly, seeing the tiara, she grabbed Lina and hugged her, hard.
'N...a...g...a... Stop... choking... me...' Lina gasped.
Naga laughed then let go,' Thank you, Lina,'
'Eh? No problem,' replied Lina.
'Well then, let's go and eat. My treat,' said Naga.
Lina gaped at Naga, but followed, ready for good and hearty meal.
