It can't rearrange Itself

"Alright that's the last one," Yami said taking the last report from Finral.

"Finally," Finral sighed. "Can I go into the Royal Capital and..."

"No. I told you you're showing Gordon around the hideout."

"Right..." he said, standing up and turning to Gordon. "Well, let's get this over with."

"And don't..."

"Use my magic, yeah yeah. This is going to take forever."

I don't see what the big deal is... I always use magic to get around the hideout..., he thought as he walked out of the living room.

Probably the fact that he'll need to know how to get around on his own...

I know that... but he can figure it out, I mean a building can't just rearrange itself.

Well, no... that is a good point... What is he muttering anyway? It's kind of creepy.

"Okay... So, I guess I show you the dining room first..."

"The dining room is a great place to strengthen our new found bond of friendship!" Gordon muttered.

"Uhhhh..." Y-you said... k-kind of creepy...?

No... it's definitely creepy.

"Okay... So to the second floor then... I believe the staircase is this way..." he said going down the right hall off the living room entrance. "It should be... right about... here! ...No... okay... maybe it was the other way..."

Yami looked up to see the two passing the entrance again.

"As I thought. The kid has no idea," he chuckled before going back to what he was doing.

"L-like I thought... It was here," Finral chuckled nervously.

You absolutely had no idea. How? You had to walk around the hideout at least once or you wouldn't be able to use magic to get around it.

I did... I must have remembered wrong...

Obviously. Like you said 'the hideout can't rearrange itself', Fatry said as they walked up the stairs.

They walked down a hall and Finral stopped and opened a door to the left.

"This is the di... bath! What the heck! I swear the dinning room was right here! I know for a fact it was because the kitchen was on the third floor when it should have been right next to the dinning room!" He said as he began to pace back and forth.

"The bath is a perfect place to strengthen our friendship while washing each others backs!"

Finral stopped pacing and looked at Gordon, "What? ...Never mind I probably won't be able to hear you anyway. Let's just go to the kitchen on the third floor."

You sure that's where it's at? Fatry teased, having hard a hint of uncertainty in his voice.

Yes I'm sure!

They walked around until the found the stairs to the third floor.

"And hear is the Kitch... er... h-hello captain Yami..."

"You're dead, Kid."

Finral let out a yelp before closing the door.

That was definitely not the kitchen!

I know! Finral replied dragging Gordon down the hall and away from the restroom as fast as he could. He quickly slowed to a halt when he was out of breath and leaned over placed his hands on his knees, painting. "What the heck is up with this places! I know I only walked around the hideout once but I have a decent memory! I know where everything was at! Okay... Third times the charm! Let's go to the basement! I have to feed the Magic Beasts anyway."

"Hay Henry. How's Finral doing with the new guy's tour?" Yami asked with a laugh while opening the door to Henry's room but not going in.

"Noooooot Vaaaaaarrrrrryyyy weeeeeeellllll."

"I knew he was using his magic to get around. Hasn't even realized you moved everything around sense he first joined." Yami laughed.

"Thhhhaaaaaaaaat iiiiiis meeeeeeaaaaaan, Caaaaaaaptaaaaiiiinnnn," Henry said.

"Mean? It's fun, not mean."

"Fuuuunnn fooooor yooooouuuu buuuuuut nooooooot foooooor pooooooor Fiiiiinnnnnnraaaal."

"Ah, he'll get over it. You want to meet them? I can go get them."

"Nooooo, noooooot nooooooow. Maaaaayyyybeeee soooooommmeeee oooothhhherrrr tiiiiimmmeeee."

"Alright. Let me know if you change your mind."

"Iiiiiii wiiiiiiillllllll."

And Yami left to head back to the living room.

Finral began to fumble over his words in frustration before grabbing to fistfuls of hair and letting out an aggravated yell.

Finral, are we lost?

"NO! WE ARE NOT LOST!" Finral replied allowed. Once he realized what he did, he prayed that whatever Gordon was mumbling was him questioning if they were lost, too. "Okay... Finral, just take a breath and calm down. Let's go back to the living room and start over. After all you've done this before. It isn't like the hideout can rearrange itself. That's physically impossible." He looked around the hall. "But which way is the living room? Yami told me I can't use my magic... And if he's out of the restroom now and back in the living room, then he'll catch me using it... And then he'll kill me... aaaaaaggghhh! Screw it! Spacial Magic: Fallen Angel's Gate!"

"I thought I told you not to use your magic," Yami said leaning back in his chair when Gordon and Finral stepped out of the portal.

"I-I... I tried not to! I did!" Finral replied. "B-but... I couldn't! This place is so big... I thought I knew where everything was... How can I possibly not now how to get around without using my magic! It's not like the rooms move around on their own! See! It's true! I am a failure! I can't attack. I can't defend. I can't even show one person around a Magic Knight's base that I lived at for how long now! I am pathetic!"

"Whoa now, slow down. Nobody said anything about you being pathetic or a failure," He said as Finral continued to ramble and degrade himself while pacing. "Hay, would you listen to me. Finral. Hay... THE HIDEOUT REARRANGES ITSELF, DAMN IT!"

"Or and let's not forget... Wait... the hideout what?" Finral said as he halted his pacing.

"The layout of this place is constantly changing."

"SERIOUSLY!" Finral said at the same time Fatry thought it.

"Yup. That's why I made sure you new where the bathroom and my bed room was the first day you were here. I knew you've been using your magic to get from room to room so you wouldn't have realized unless I told you or you where forced to use the halls. So I decided to mess with you instead of tell you."

"The hideout... It actually... THAT'S MEAN!"

"Really? I thought it was pretty damn funny!" Yami laughed. "Go show Gordon around. And don't get lost this time."

"Does that mean I can use my magic now?"

"If it keeps you from getting lost and do it quick. I might need your magic to get to the bathroom, it's on the third floor today and I don't feel like walking that far again."

"I'M NOT A SHORTCUT!"
