Shicmuon laid in bed when the intruders walked into to his room. He kept his eyes shut as he listened to them, annoyed by his nap being interrupted.

"Where is it?" A feminine voice said annoyed to their partner-in-crime who gave an annoyed sigh and spoke in a raspy voice.

"The energy reader says that it is here so it must be they have to be here."

"And if you're wrong?"

"Shut up or the human will wake. Their Royal Highness should be here." Those were the last words that the raspy man spoke as Shicmuon sprung out of bed, pushing himself up with his arms, his foot slamming into the man's face effectively knocking him out. The woman took a jump back, her body tensed.

They watched each other carefully, Shicmuon, now standing shifted barely towards her and she dashed towards him with a knife. He lep to the side grabbing her arm and flipped her over his shoulder, slamming her into the ground. She attempted to push him away by kicking him in the stomach with both feet. He grabbed her feet, picked her up, and swung her into a wall. The wall cracked under the harsh force and the intruder's body crumpled to the ground weakly.

Shicmuon shook his head and grabbed his phone before dialing a number.

"Hey old man, I got some strange visitors looking for a royal highness."

Rood sat down in front of his brother and raised an eyebrow at him.

"I wanted to see how school has been going so far! You've already brought a friend home too! I'm just so happy!" Kielnode clapped his hands together happily while his younger brother rolled his eyes.

"School has been fine. I know pretty much everything they're teaching me. I guess it wasn't that hard making friends."

"No one has bullied you right?! No issues?" Kiel watched his brother worriedly, and the younger boy only rolled his eyes.

"No. Don't be stupid, as if." Rood's mind thought back to his roommate and he shook his head.

"Are you sure?"

"Are you calling me weak." Rood's face was blank and his older brother sighed and shook his head.

"Of course not," He smiled gently at him and pulled his sandwich plate closer to him. "I'm glad everything is alright."

Rood stood up and gave a little nod before turning around and leaving. He walked to his room in which he found Dio, staring at the sandwich.

"Just eat the sandwich for the love of god." Rood put a hand on his hip and Dio snapped his head upward.

"No! It's yours!" Dio crossed his arms and looked away determinedly.

"It's fine. Just eat it, I'm not hungry anyway." Dio uncrossed his arms and looked at the sandwich hesitantly.

"You sure?"

"Yes."

The moment he was given the affirmation, he chowed down on the sandwich. Rood shook his head and sat on the end of his queen sized bed, watching his friend gobble it up as if he hadn't eaten in days.

"You're such a pig."

"Wh- hey! Rood why are you so meaaaaan!" Dio cried, food speckled around his mouth. Rood grabbed the napkin from under the plate and held it out to him.

"Well, it's true. You have food all over your face. Wipe it off." Dio blushed and took the napkin, wiping the access food off. He gave a glance at the closet before looking back at the smaller boy.

"Um, so I might've gave a look around the room and-"

"You know curiosity killed the cat."

"And satisfaction brought it back! Why do you have a dress in your closet?" The moment he mentioned it the room became heavy, Rood pursed his lips. Dio, however, was quite oblivious and looked at his friend curiously.

"...It was given to me as a joke so I threw it in the closet."

"Oh. Okay!" Dio smiled at him cheerfully before looking out the window, excited for the festival the next day.

Ibriel stood in front of the mini-market as her brother stood in line, waiting to pay for their drinks when she noticed a stunning white-haired girl walking on the sidewalk. The girl's lightly done make up only enhanced her beauty, enrapturing most people that looked at her. Ibriel's head turned as the mysterious girl passed her.

Iel, the white-haired beauty, was walking past Ibriel when a man turned from an alley and the two collided.

"Ah, shit." Iel took a couple steps back to keep herself from falling and bumping into Ibriel who grabbed her shoulders to keep her steady. The man apologized and looked down at Ibriel before holding out his hand.

"You know, pretty ladies like you shouldn't swear." The man gave what was supposed to be charming while Iel just rolled her eyes and was about to tell him what she thought about that when the golden-haired girl interrupted.

"Oh get fucked." Iel gave a loud laugh as the man's eyes widen and took back his hand. He squared his shoulders and gave a scowl when Chevel finally walked out of the mini-mart.

"Is there a problem here?" The older brother looked down at the man who quickly shook his head and turned around. He watched the man flee before he turned to his sister with a raised eyebrow. His little sister gave a grin while Iel looked between the two. She turned to Ibriel and gave smile as she flicked her hair over a shoulder.

"Thank you for your help," She turned to Chevel, "And yours too." Her face was blank when she had looked up at the boy, unlike her gentle smile at the girl her age. She calmly walked away as Ibriel had a light blush flitted across her cheeks.

"Aw look at you, blushing because a cute girl smiled at you." Chevel snickered as his little sister punched his arm.

"Shut your face."

"Remember that time when a girl said your outfit was cute an-"

"Shut your face! Jesus, you're like a plunger. Always bring up old shit." Ibriel glared at her older brother who cackled.

Rood sat on the edge of the fountain, his hair being blown softly by the late summer wind. Dio ran around the town square, playing with the children. Children would jump on the blue-haired boy's back, playing a make pretend of conquering the beast.

As much as Rood was mean to the playful boy, he really did care about him and couldn't help to feel warm inside as he watched the boy play. And the warmth certainly wasn't the heat.

It was mid noon when Rood and Dio got to the meeting place that the group had planned when a certain gray-haired boy was spotted walking towards them. With him, however, was Dirod. Rood waved to catch the quiet boy's attention and smiled when Lidusis saw and gave him a gentle smile.

Once Lidusis got to him he gave a quick look to his brother as he held onto his opposite sleeve. Dirod smiled charmingly at Rood, a smile that only made his younger brother's stomach twist.

"I won't be staying with your group but do be careful with yourself. Lidusis is the bringer of bad luck after all." Once his older brother spoke he turned around and started to walk away, the shy boy looked down at the ground. Rood scowled at the boys back before noticing Dio stick out his leg in front of Dirod, promptly tripping him. Rood burst out laughing when the mischievous blue-haired boy crossed his arms and looked down at the older boy on the ground.

"I may not be a cactus expert but I know a prick when I see one!" Dio huffed and ran towards Lidusis who giggled softly at his mean older brother as he picked himself up with a huff and stalked off. The childish boy gave the taller boy a large hug before looking up at him.

"Dio's right. And besides, the only bad luck is that asshat." Rood stood up and gave Lidusis a smile.

"Who's an asshat?" Chevel walked up to the group with Ibriel who was searching through the bag for her drink.

"Lidusis's brother." Rood looked at Lidusis carefully. The boy glanced at the direction that his brother went from before looking back at his friend and gave a slight wave towards the golden siblings, Ibriel waved back her face glowing.

"At any point let's get going. And we can meet here if we end up being split from the group." Rood glanced at Rood who had wandered off, distracted by a butterfly.

The group started walking through the large crowds, stopping every so often to look at a stall that had been placed up. The stalls contained a large variety of items from food to jewelry to toys, a souvenir was to be found. The group stopped at the view of a large crowd. In the front was a stage of belly dancers, their movements were entrancing and even Rood stopped to watch as their body twisted to the rhythm. It wasn't until the end did he notice a familiar face in the front of the crowd taking pictures of the dancers. Without thinking he pushed through the crowd before grabbing the arm of the photographer.

Shicmuon looked away from his camera to see who was bothering him.

"...What are you doing?" Rood looked at the camera curiously then back up at the older boy.

"Taking pictures."

"Why."

"Cause I can?" The two stared at each other. Shicmuon gave a huff before looking back at the camera.

"Why do you care anyway?" He looked at the younger boy who blinked and merely shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't know. If you're not doing anything important then do you want to wander the festival with me and my friends they should be at the back of the crowd- Huh? Where did they go?" Rood looked back to where his friends had originally been and they were now missing.

"...Let's go find them. I'm not busy." Shic looked where Rood was looking for his friend. The younger boy in mention looked up at Shic with a small smile before grabbing his wrist.

"We said if we got split we had decided to go back to the central area." Rood tugged him through the crowd, the older boy followed, surprisingly, obediently.

As they were walking towards the central area a woman's lovely voice called out to them.

"Lovely gentleman, may I do your fortunes?"
