Hopelessmine gave me an idea that I just HAD to use. Many hearts for mah adorable Wifey xD As usual, Hiroki belongs to Halcyon Clouds and Luzien is mine ;D


Partners for Life…No, Not like THAT!

"Luzien, Hiroki," the head priest said sternly. The two had been making the other priests work more since they thought it would be all right to skip out on their duties, but the others had had enough. Hiroki stood before the priest, dreading what punishment lay before him. It couldn't be that bad, could it? Perhaps extra tasks? He could deal with that.

"Yes?" the black haired priest replied.

"I have a task for you two since you seem to think you're allowed to be lazy. Do you even think about who has to take over your work when you run off somewhere?" He glared at the two, hoping for some expressions of guilt or remorse, but no, what he received was a blank stare from Hiroki and Luzien wasn't even looking at him! "Luzien!"

The taller priest snapped his lewd gaze away from a priestess across the room and at the obviously peeved priest in front of him. He preferred the priestess. "What, oh dictatorial one?" he said with a grin. He was immediately greeted with a whack to his head. "Ow! I thought you were supposed to be kind! Not violent!"

Hiroki snickered and waited for the priest to continue.

"There's a large number of monsters outside of the west gate and you two get to take care of the problem. Just kill some of them off so our less experienced brothers and sisters don't get hurt. If you run off and decide that you want to be slothful, which is one of the deadly sins," he added, "there will be severe consequences! Now go. May God be with you on this mission." There was a sarcastic and annoyed tone to his voice.

Luzien leaned over to Hiroki with a grin. "He's so uptight," he whispered. The shorter priest cracked a smile and pushed Luzien along toward the door. No need to make their punishment worse. They took their time and ambled through Prontera toward the west gate. As they drew near their destination, Luzien made his usual stop. "Hey Lauren!" he called to a very displeased kafra worker.

"You stay away!" she hissed and readied her clipboard to hit the high priest.

He nudged Hiro as they walked. "Look, she's got a nice rack." He said pointing to the girls chest. "What do you think of 'em?" Hiroki couldn't help but turn a lovely shade of red at the thought which made Luzien laugh.

"They're…erm…nice. Let's stay focused…on the mission," he added. Luzien shrugged and winked at the Kafra as they walked past her. She simply frowned and turned away.

Suddenly, something flew from the ground and latched itself onto Hiroki's midsection as they stepped onto the grassy field. "ARGH!" The high priest cried out. Luzien gasped and froze in his place. Where had these vicious monsters come from?

"Get it off me!" Hiro shouted, as another one of the creatures bit his leg. Luzien grabbed his mace from his belt and raised it to swing at the monster on his teammate. Hiro's eyes widened at what the other priest intended to do.

"LUZ! Are you crazy?! You'll hit me too! Think of something else before they kill me!" Luzien dropped the mace and looked around for something else but saw nothing. While he was looking, another monster attacked Hiro. Then, another and another. They just kept coming! After some time, Hiro realized that we was out of options. He fell to the ground, his wounds too great.

"Hiro! No! C'mon, you have to get up!" Luzien shouted as he tried desperately to heal his teammate. No matter what he did, Hiro would not get up. He tried but the monsters were just too much.

"I...can't. Go...go, without me." Hiro clutched his side, as he lay in a fetal position. One of them had to survive and he wasn't going anywhere.

"No! I can't!" Luz was getting frustrated. How could he leave his partner? These monsters would never take him away! A few girls walked past them, giggling and staring at the two priests being mobbed by little fabres.

It was really a humorous sight, but that wasn't what made them giggle. "Sooo cute!" One of them snickered as they stopped near the two high priests.

"And handsome too," her friend added, eyeing the two priests with interest, "Too bad they're gay."

Hiro forgot about his minor wound. Luz forgot about trying to rescue Hiro. Their dignity and their sexual preference was at stake. "WE DON'T SWING THAT WAY!!" they both roared, turning their attention to the three girls.

"Teehee. How cute They're still in the denial stage." The middle girl looped her arms around her friends. "Let's leave them alone, shall we, girls?" Giggling madly, the girls skipped off into the sunset, leaving two very angry and uncomfortable priests being mobbed by fabres alone once more.
