Chapter 9: Bye Bye Maranda!

Some time after Chazz and Jaden's fight with Aster they received a challenge from Jaden's old rival Maranda. Jaden wasn't at all please with her sudden reappearance, but hoped to settle the score once and for all. Along the way to the back of the school where they were supposed to meet her Jaden had something to say to Chazz.

"Chazz, can I tell you something?" asked Jaden as he and Chazz walked down the hall.

"Yes, you can tell me," replied Chazz turning to the familiar.

"You know the day I told you that you had gained a lot of my trust?" reminded Jaden his eyes not leaving the floor.

"Yeah, I remember," said Chazz. "But what does this have to do with Maranda?"

"Maranda was the one who caused my injuries that day," announced Jaden looking up. "He's gonna snap, I know it."

"What!? I'll kill her!" roared Chazz about to tear down the hall. "When I get my hands on her, I'm gonna.."

"Wait Chazz! I know that you want to fight her, but please, let me be by your side when that happens," begged Jaden grabbing Chazz's hand. "Hopefully he'll listen to me."

Chazz stared at Jaden for a moment, surprised by the brunette's words, but then he smiled. Then before Jaden could say anything Chazz pulled Jaden into a tight embrace. Jaden blushed and embraced Chazz back and buried his face into Chazz's shoulder.

"Jaden, you know that I'd say yes right?" asked Chazz nuzzling Jaden's neck.

"Eep, Chazz now's not the time," protested Jaden pushing him away. "Of all times he chooses now."

Chazz just smirked and took Jaden's hand before leading him down the hall. Once they reached the designated area Maranda flew down from a nearby tree and Jaden stepped forward. Chazz swore that he saw sparks fly when those two familiars' eyes locked onto each other.

"Well Jaden, are you going to be stronger than the last time we met or are you going lose again?" questioned Maranda crossing her arms.

"No, I'm stronger than I was before and your rampage ends here!" snapped Jaden clenching a fist. "This time, I'll be the one who comes out victorious!"

"Well so does your life!" laughed Maranda appearing in front of Jaden to strike.

"No! Not again!" thought Chazz jumping in between the two familiars.

"CHAZZ!!" screamed Jaden grabbing onto Chazz's arm.

A bright light then consumed the slayer and familiar, and Maranda was sent flying backwards. When the light dissipated only Chazz could be seen with gray colored wings on his back. He looked at his hands and then to his wings in confusion.

"What happened? Jaden? Where are you?" inquired Chazz looking around.

"I'm here, inside of you," replied Jaden from within Chazz's mind.

"Any idea what happened?" questioned Chazz.

"I think what happened was that we fused together," answered Jaden appearing next to Chazz in spirit form.

"Wow, neat trick."

"Yes it is, but now is not the time for complements."

"You're right, let's go!"

So Chazz sped forward and slashed at Maranda with his scythe. Both of them flew into the air and started shooting colored beams at each other. They would have damaged the school had it not been for the special barrier that Sheppard put up. Chazz and Jaden then chased Maranda past Sheppard's office window.

"What the hell!?" shouted Sheppard running to his huge window. "Crowler! Get the security! We've got problems!"

"Y-yes Sheppard!" replied Crowler grabbing a phone.

Back with Chazz and Jaden, their chase had lead them and Maranda to the school roof. Both Chazz and Maranda threw punches at each other only to have themselves knocked to the ground by their opponent's attack. The slayer and familiar struggled onto their feet and glared at each other for a long time while catching their breath. It was time for the final round.

"Maranda, it all ends here," stated Chazz and Jaden in union.

"Yes, I believe it does," smirked Maranda holding up her hand, which had a black flame on it. "My final move is Hell's Supernova!"

Our final move is Heaven's Supernova!" yelled Chazz and Jaden producing their own flame. "This is it!"

Their flames collided and the force threw them all backwards. Maranda dissipated in order to reinstated and would never be seen by Jaden and the others again (There! I killed her off!). Chazz on the other hand slowly lost consciousness.

"Heh, I guess it's over…bye everyone. I think I'll take a little nap," thought Chazz closing his eyes.

Everything was dark until Chazz heard something and felt someone holding his hand. B-bmp, B-bmp, B-bmp. It was his own heart that he was hearing, but who was holding his hand? Slowly Chazz opened his eyes to see Jaden who was as beautiful as ever. Jaden was holding onto Chazz's hand and clinging onto what was left of his red blazer to keep him warm since his shirt was gone.

His blue jeans were also in tatters and barely hanging on and his boxers were also showing. Chazz blushed when seeing Jaden like that and realized that he too was wearing tattered clothes.

"Chazz, you're all right," smiled Jaden. "Thank goodness you're alive!"

"Yeah, but where's Maranda?" questioned Chazz sitting up. "Dang, my body aches all over."

"She's gone, we won't be seeing her anymore," replied Jaden letting go of Chazz's hand. "I'm glad about it too."

"Thank goodness," sighed Chazz.

"Come on let's go," suggested Jaden sanding up and holding his hands out to Chazz causing his blazer to fall off. "Oops."

"Um…" sweatdropped Chazz standing up. "This is an awkward situation."

"Wh-what are you staring at?" blushed Jaden using his arms to cover himself up. "Geeze Chazz…"

"N-nothing," answered Chazz holding back a nosebleed and covering Jaden up with his black trench coat. "Nothing at all!"

"Thank you Chazz," thanked Jaden as Chazz pulled him into an embrace.

Days later Atticus threw a huge party celebrating Chazz and Jaden's victory. This meant drunk friends and a lot of alcohol. At one point they all played spin the bottle and since Chazz was drunk he ended up making out with Jaden.

"Come on everyone! Let's sing!" sang Atticus thrusting his beer can into the air.

"Barney killing song!" shouted Jim tossing his half empty can in back of him.

After 2 hours of Barney Killing songs…..

"This is going to be a long night," sweatdropped Jaden. "I've got a low tolerance for alcohol too!"

"I think you're right," agreed Alexis. "I can't stand people when they're drunk anyway! They just act so weird!"

"Hey! Sissy dance with me!" squealed a drunk Atticus appearing in front of Alexis. "We can tango all night!"

"Atticus I'm gonna-" warned Alexis holding back the urge to strangle her brother. "And this is exactly what I mean by acting weird!"

"No she's dancing with me!" snapped a drunk Zane appearing behind Atticus.

"GO TO SLEEP!!" commanded Alexis knocking them both out with a pair of beer bottles. "Jaden, why not you- OMFG!!"

Jaden had both Haou and Jesse sleeping in his lap, Jim was sleeping against one shoulder and Aster against the other, and finally Chazz was slumped over on Jaden from behind.

"Help," whimpered Jaden. "They're very heavy!"

"All right, I'll remove some of these guys for you and you put your brother and Chazz to bed," explained Alexis dragging Jim and Aster away.

"Okay," replied Jaden dragging the other three boys off. "It's good to know that some people don't drink alcohol."

Haou and Jesse went to bed easily enough with the exception of them running around like cats first. After that Jaden took Chazz back to the Obelisk dorm. Although along the way Chazz kept flirting with Jaden, which lead to many whacks to the head from Jaden. Once they reached Chazz's room the black haired teen collapsed on his bed.

"Geeze, you're gonna have a sore head in the morning," sighed Jaden turning to leave.

"Jaden…"

"Chazz?" asked Jaden turning back around.

Jadn turned to see what Chazz wanted but was quickly pulled onto the bed. Then Chazz captured the young familiar's lips in a sweet and loving kiss. Both broke away when they needed air. Jaden looked into Chazz's eyes and realized that he was sober the whole time.

"Chazz you trickster, you were sober this whole time," blushed Jaden wrapping his arms around Chazz's neck.

"No, I was sober since Jesse and Haou started acting like cats," smirked Chazz tracing circles on Jaden's chest.

"Sheesh you're so flirtatious."

"Thank you."

This was going to be one hell of a night with some after affects.
