Summary: Teito is all wind up on how to hook his best friend Mikage to swing in the same lane as he is and be his lover, but how can he do that? "Oh c'mon, all he needs is an advice from a pro!"

Note: I don't own 07 Ghost, only Akira (mixture of Naruto and Sasuke appearance; hair color and face of Sasuke and eyes, droop haircut, lithe body and whisker marks of Naruto) and Azrael (much like Michael, cloaked with white long hair and a pair of black feather wings).

Chapter 3: Old Adage

***

The Basburg church was known as homage for those who have committed sins and seek refugee in their process of atonement. Due to the prevalent misconducts, a lot have become sinners. As a result, many of these sinners seek forgiveness and set a pilgrimage to the holy sanctuary of the said church.

That's why there's a lot of mouth to feed…

And among the offices of the Basburg church, the kitchen is the busiest. How can't they be if there are thousands of mouths to feed thrice a day? And in the same instance, the master and apprentice are once again on there little adventure in self–building activities.

"So what am I going to do now?"

Akira turned around, clad in a pink apron and was holding a spatula. They were assigned as the cook for today's dinner and the two planned to prepare a feast that would make everyone's mouth to water. So, in the name of the great Archangels of God, Akira donned a pink apron with a matching spatula and dragged his apprentice Teito out of his room and into the church massive kitchen to cook.

"Ain't it obvious my cute apprentice? We are going to cook!" the Azrael vessel said, twirling a little in emphasis. "WE are going to cook!"

"Okay, so why my adorable master?" the jade bishop asked sarcastically, turning around to see a variety of ingredient sprawled in the vast kitchen table, and... what were those one-eyed violet animals struggling in the cage? Then there was an aquarium full of, aren't those JELLYFISHES?

"You see Teito-chan, there's an old saying that a way to a man's heart is through his stomach! If you want a man to fall for you, you must learn the ways of the kitchen and master the art of cooking surpassing that of a women's." Akira jumped into a near table and in all glory waved a poetic hand while holding a spatula.

"A-ah Akira…" Teito sweat-dropped at the, well peculiar and rather excited behavior of his friend cum master.

"You must learn how to ease a man's hunger." Akira pointed by his spatula, stopping Teito in mid-sentence. "Think about it! You're husband will come home tired and hungry from his daily work." He suddenly hugged his self and squirmed excitedly with matching hearts and flowers flying around him. "Basically, hugs and kisses aren't enough to ease his burden, but a table full of cuisines and a mug of an aromatic coffee will surely suffice!" he finished.

Sure learning how to cook is a good idea, but the thought of Mikage as his husband seems a little…

Overrated… Teito thought.

"And Teito-chan, think about it. What if Mikage was indeed your husband? Of course you will have to serve him. Isn't better to serve him mouth-watering foods that burnt ones?" he said before slinging an arm at Teito's neck. "And then, when he says your cooking is the best, he will try to shower your face with kisses. Then your neck, stripping your clothes bit by bit, licking and nipping your shoulders down until your navel then into your gro-"

"AKIRA STOP IT!" was the instant interruption of a blushing Teito. He prepared a zaiphon ball and tried to shove it in Akira when it was dispelled by the other.

"Nah-ah! We wouldn't want the kitchen to explode now do we?" he whispered, removing his hand from Teito and walking closer towards the cauldron. "C'mon now, we have our hands full today." he said before tossing a bag of vegetables at Teito.

"But Akira, I'm not good at cooking!"

"Oh hush! Cut the vegetables over there and help me wiith these!"

***

Bishop Frau was known to be a cold and anti-social bishop. He does give attention to others but in very minimal scale. He doesn't want to be involved in other people's business, maybe it is because of the darkness surrounding him that's preventing him from being intimate with other people. So, instead of moping around and doing nothing to kill time, Bishop Frau would sneak into the back portion of the library to read his series of "Bibles".

"Now, where are my babies? It's been a long time since I reread those babies of mine since I returned from our journey." he said while trudging towards his destination. He was about to jump in delight as he turned into a corner to take one book.

Too bad Castor's already there burning the book he was about to read. Beside him was a scared Hakuren tied in a zaiphon string.

"Hakuren! F-four-eyes!"

….

You know, calling Castor four eyes is another translation of 'I want to get spanked!' And so, a sound of a book being slapped in the face, followed by an 'Owww!' echoed through out the library.

"Good to see you Frau. My goodness, you haven't yet given up these kinds of hobbies." he said, taking another book from the shelf only to find out it was porn. "And you made another copy of yourself…" he added before casting a glare at the tied up Hakuren who flinched instantly.

"You annoying brat!" Frau grizzled, giving Hakuren one of his death glares.

"Bishop Frau! I'm sorry but he threatened that my training will be jeopardized if I will not forsake these Holy Scriptures!" the blond boy freaked out, terrified at the glares he is receiving from both bishop.

"You know Frau, being a bishop you should always behave like one. And by meaning of it, you should dispose these reading materials of yours." he said before concentrating zaiphon at the innocent book.

"C-Castor enough! Don't-"

And the book sizzles and then flamed…

"-burn it…" he finished before dropping his head in defeat.

"Didn't you guys hear that Teito's going to cook today's dinner?" Castor said out of nowhere after dumping the burnt book. At this, Frau and Hakuren seem to be taken aback.

"Come again?" said by the two in unison.

"Apparently, Teito and Akira volunteered to cook today's dinner. They said something like cooking a feast for everyone."

Frau only gulped. He knew from experience that Teito is the worst cook. He couldn't forget the time that he almost died of food poisoning because of the poisonous mushroom Teito included in the ingredients.

Flashback

They were in a mission to deliver an important document from the seventh district to the sixth district. Apparently, thanks to a certain raven vessel of the Eye of Azrael, they've lost their bishop pass and that made their journey a lot more difficult. So, instead of enjoying their time in a cozy hotel or an inn, here they are, in the middle of the forest hunting for food and all.

Frau peered through the brunette's head to have a look at whatever Teito is cooking. Mikage and Akira were frying some fishes they caught and Teito was assigned to cook for some soup.

Seriously, it resembles a potion concoction more than a soup. The blond bishop though while taking note of the purple color of Teito's cooking.

When everything's all prepared, they gathered in a circle and after praying they started to eat.

"Neh, Teito-kun?" Mikage asked suddenly, stopping before taking in a spoonful of soup. "What did you put in this?" he continued before averting his eyes at the suspicious purple color of the soup in front of him.

Teito tilted his head in an innocent way while Frau eats his soup. His face went blue at the awful taste of the soup but he was hungry. So, after gathering all his courage, Frau continued to eat his dinner, all the while his face change into a darker shade of blue.

"Um… I can't remember but I'm sure it's a mushroom." he said while thinking of the appearance of the mushroom. "It has a club shaped head, it's all white and it has purple dots in the head's underside."

All of them dropped there spoons and a gust of cold air blew. Teito frowned at the awkwardness he's feeling then all of a sudden, Frau collapsed with bubbles coming out from his mouth.

End of Flashback

"Teito's going to cook? I'd rather starve to death than eat something made by that brat."

"I have to agree." Hakuren supplemented, remembering the cake that Teito decided to bake. It was a disaster and he nearly suffered from sticky hair.

Castor sent a curious look at the blondes, wondering what made them say such thing.

"You sure you don't want eat dinner? It's Teito we're talking about."

"Nah I'll pass. I don't want to die yet." they said. Frau was walking away, completely uninterested.

Little did they know that their beliefs will be soon rectified in due time.

"What was that smell?" Castor said while sniffing at the prevailing scent.

The blondes started to sniff too, looking quite interested at the sudden aromatic scent filling his nostrils.

"I don't know, but whatever it is, it smells good." Hakuren said.

Now, everyone inside the library is sniffing at the said scent. The scent then wafted throughout the fountain, the garden, the dorms, the halls and even in the infirmary. All of them made the same comment…

"What the!? That smells delicious!"

And for Mikage? Oh, he's already dashing down the halls following the scent for he recognizes the floating celestial scent that's taking the church into captivity. He ran; pass the fountain, the halls, the stairs and finally barging through the double doors of the grand dining room.

"What in the name of God…" was all that he managed to say, upon laying his eyes unto the… well banquet would be an understatement…

For inside the dining room was a grandiose feast filled with sizzling cuisines, mouth watering foods and heavenly treats. Akira was preparing the utensils in the last table while Teito's bringing the last treat out of the kitchen which caught Mikage's attention.

"Teito!" Mikage called. Teito, who was now clad in a blue apron, turn around to see his best friend while setting the food into the table. Mikage rushed through the room towards his best friend, curious at the covered food.

"Oh hello Mikage, we're almost done here. All we need to do is to set all the utensils." Teito said while looking at the floor, a light blush forming at his cheeks. All of a sudden he was tackled by Akira who was still clad in his pink apron, the scent of freshly baked cookies eminent at the blue-eyed Azrael vessel.

"No worries Teito-chan I'm already done with the utensils!" he said. "Hm… Let me have that one and I'll set it aside." he added before taking the food from Teito. The action shoved Teito into Mikage's arm in which they were connected into a feverish hug.

"A-ah M-Mikage…" the jade bishop said, blushing as he accidentally landed a kiss on Mikage's exposed chest. On Mikage's part, he taken by the sudden assault of that scent he was following and Teito was emitting the same scent that makes his head a little dizzy and his stomach grumpy.

"Teito, your scent is like yakisoba…" he said, unconsciously tightening his hold unto his best friend. Teito blush even a deeper shade of red.

"Yakisoba?" Akira wondered. "Ah! You mean this?" he opened the tray and low and behold; a complete dish of yakisoba from noodles, ramen, buns to rice. Mikage immediately releases Teito and then walked closer towards the said foods.

"Wow! Teito you made all of these?" he said while drooling at the sight of those goodies. Once again, Teito was blushing a little as he nodded.

"W-well I did b-but-"

"Well you known Mikage-niichan I did remember Teito said something like I'll make something for my special person, a special complete dish of his favorite." the raven said as he sniffed at the lulling smell of the dishes. "It didn't come to me that you're that special person Teito's referring to, and the special complete dish was yakisoba."

"Teito… you-" Mikage said as he launched his self at his best friend, hugging his friend and lifting him up in the air before swinging him around. He was laughing and smiling all of the time while Teito blushes. Because of is small frame, lifting him up in the air is not difficult for Mikage. During this lovely scene, Akira smiled before taking a sip from his mug of coffee.

Well…isn't it lovey-dovey? The raven cheered, satisfied at the reaction of his friends.

"S-stop it Mikage! Put me down!" Teito whined while Mikage swing him around. "I'm getting dizzy…"

Mikage stopped swinging him around but didn't let go of him. He then hugged his friend close to him and whispered into his ears.

"Thank you" he said happily, surprising the little bishop in his arms. Teito smiled and relinquished the fluffy feeling he felt towards the older boy. He looked at his master and saw the gleeful look at the other occupant of the room. Akira then gave him a thumbs up, which he returned later on.

"Well, why don't we ring the bells so that everybody can take their dinner?"

Akira let his zaiphon to fly towards the bells above and when it hit its target, the bell rang and rang as it signals dinner is ready. Soon enough people flooded the dining room, awed at the marvelous feast presented in front of them. Later on, the bishops (Lance, Castor, Labrador and Frau) together with their apprentice (Hakuren, Quida, Liam, and Kyle) entered the room. Razette was carried by Castor, humming in delight to see his two friends at the back. They waved back and Razette asked to be put down. She ran towards her two friends before hugging Akira, then Teito.

"Good to see you Razette! Just so you know Teito made all of them!" Akira exclaimed.

Razette smiled, giving Teito an admiring look. Teito blushed in embarrassment but soon enough, he was shaken off from his blushing tirade when Mikage took his hand and settled in front of the yakisoba treat.

"Teito, can I have a bite now?" Mikage asked, still holding Teito's hands.

"S-sure Mikage. After all, I made it all just for you." Teito replied, uncertain on how to behave under the gaze of his friend.

Obliviously, from afar the bishops were looking at their direction as the four exchanged pleasantries. Their eyebrows rise when Mikage took Teito's hand, especially Frau who was fuming discretely. Castor noticed this and, being the sarcastic bastard he was, taunted Frau more.

"Well, what was that you were saying Frau?" Castor dared the blond bishop who sat beside a large bowl complete with vegetables. He sat down beside him while Labrador with Quida sat in front of them. Lance and his apprentice Kyle took the seats besides Frau. His apprentice Hakuren sat beside him as well.

"Heh! I bet this taste awful." he said while waiting for someone to initiate the first bite.

Meanwhile, Mikage was ogling at the treat in front of him, fork and spoon in hand all ready to dig in.

"Thank you for the food!" he said before taking a huge amount of noodles of the yakisoba ramen.

Teito and Akira, who are now left alone when Razette returned to Castor, were eying the blond all this time. Teito swallowed a huge lumped in his throat while Akira was gleaming, already predicting how Mikage will react which is either…

Approve or disapproved…

After swallowing the contents in his mouth, Mikage became teary…

"Teito!" he said before hugging his friend once again. "This is SO good!" he squealed in delight.

Everybody in the dining room started to eat and they too were taken aback when they confirmed Mikage's claim.

"It is good!"

"My, this is delicious."

"What the!?" was all that Frau manage to say after eating a piece of mushroom.

"You said that Teito couldn't cook?" Castor said while casting Frau a daring look. In front of him, Quida and Labrador munch at their cake and pudding, mumbling something like 'Oh this is delicious!' The redhead was holding a green tea courtesy of Teito that seems to be at par compared to Labrador's tea. Hakuren couldn't believe it but the pasta he was now eating wasn't like the last dreaded pasta he ate courtesy of Teito Klein.

"Y-yeah I did, but how come this tastes so good?" Frau replied while taking another piece of meat.

"There's something amiss! Teito couldn't cook something so delicious like this!" Hakuren said, slapping his self in confirmation that he is not dreaming or hallucinating. He felt pain, of his awake alright.

"Maybe you guys just misjudged the little one." he said before feeding a piece of flower to Razette. Frau and Hakuren frowned, unable to accept the fact that Teito was the one who prepared this delicious banquet. After debating whether Teito cooked it or not, they took a rather bigger portion of their dishes and forgot the topic at hand and continued to eat.

Every people in the dining hall enjoyed the food that Teito and Akira have prepared and everybody said that the dinner tastes good. Akira accepted the praises so expertly while Teito blushes every now and then when praises or comments flew at their direction. Everyone had a good time.

Akira plopped another muffin in his mouth as the other continued to eat. Others already left for the night while other's continued to chatter as they finish their meals. Mikage was already finished with his yakisoba and was talking happily with Teito. They were both laughing, especially Mikage.

Then, the devil in the persona of Frau and Hakuren decided to ruin it all.

"Hey damn brat, I didn't know that you can cook." the blond bishop said.

"Damnit you big pervert I'm not a damn brat!" he countered while taking a fork and sent it flying towards Frau. The bishop duck, evading the fork but his cap was hit, pinning it into the nearest wooden pillar.

Akira scowled at the intrusion of the said arrogant bishop, thinking of ways to castrate the said bastard for meddling with his plans.

"Whoa! What's with the bad temper?" Frau said while eying the annoyed brunette. Beside Teito was Mikage, smiling apologetically at the blond bishop. This was the time when Hakuren decided to put his two cents.

"Yeah, well you could say that we are a bit surprised at the sudden discovery Teito-chan." Hakuren commented, tucking his long braid at the back of his shoulder. "Seriously, you shouldn't be mad at Frau-san all the time."

"But he kept on calling me damn brat while I'm not a damn brat!"

"But you kept on calling me a big pervert while I'm not." Frau fired back, eying Teito with his evil eyes. Somewhere behind the scene, a certain raven fumed in irritation as black cloud starts to gather around him.

You're destroying my plan! He mumbled before stepping into the scene.

"Oh save it you big closet pervert." was the sudden intrusion of Akira who was currently holding a bread loaf. "You're really a big pain in the ass, you know?"

"W-what did you said you stupid brat?" Frau was about to retort another counter-insult when Akira suddenly activated his Eye of Azrael and sent Frau away by using a teleportation spell.

Serves you right you freak! Akira cheered, glad that he has a powerful eye at his disposal. Oh Frau could be a little unnerving! He could always feel a pedo vibe from the blond freak and he didn't like it one bit! And that black aura he's emitting could one day corrupt Teito's pure white aura that seems to glow brighter when Teito's with Mikage. As for Mikage, his pink aura sure is peculiar for someone like him.

Well come to think of it, when I was dressing Teito in my room, he managed to break through Azrael's barrier. Not even Verloren could break it, not if he isn't using his full power, but Mikage broke it with a simple zaiphon…

Akira glanced at Mikage's way, beside him was Teito trying to calm down a bit from the recent teasing of Frau. Heh, there's more than meets the eye huh?

Seeing that he might be teleported in another place, Hakuren bid his farewell to them after thanking Teito for the delicious dinner. He smiled at his look-a-like Mikage and nodded to Akira before taking his leave, perhaps sleeping the night away.

"Ne, Teito…"

"What is it Mikage?"

"Umm, I'm very thankful for the yakisoba. It's really delicious! I really like it." the blond enthusiastically said before flashing Teito his trademark grin. The recipient of the grin blushed, and cursed that blushing more often would make his face permanently pink, or worse, red.

"It's nothing r-really, I-I mean I really made just for you…" he stuttered, unable to stop the growing blush creeping from his neck to his face spreading to his ears. Teito prayed at God that his blushing would stop because he's starting to feel uncomfortable.

Too bad that didn't end it for Mikage suddenly took Teito's hand and held it between their chests. He stared at those beautiful emerald eyes and uttered the last-thing-that-Mikage-can-say-to-Teito-while-staring-straight-right-into-his-eyes.

"Thank you Teito. You know, if God would allow me, I would have you as my wife! You're good at everything! Combat, bascules, cooking and you're beautiful in yesterday's outfit!"

.

.

.

.

.

Oh dear, what a lovely scene they're making! Akira, who was looking at the couple, cried in delight when Mikage took Teito's hand and said those sweet words to him. 'I'm so glad that my plan is working in its course!' he added, congratulating his self.

Upon realizing what was happening, the two suddenly retrieved their hands and both blushed hard, facing the opposite direction not daring to look at each other's blushing red face.

"Well, that is if God would allow me…" Mikage whispered while scratching his cheeks in embarrassment.

Feeling a scandalized, Teito abruptly stand up and gave the blond a smack on the head. "B-baka no Mikage! I appreciate it that you liked my cooking b-but don't toy with me will ya?" Teito suddenly gushed out, unable to retain his nervousness. After that, he sat down still blushing at the sudden statement of Mikage. "And what was that I'm beautiful in yesterday's outfit?" he continued while sending death glares towards Mikage.

"G-gomen Teito… Hehehe I'm sorry don't be mad at me okay?" the blond hastily replied not wanting the shorter boy to be mad at him.

"I-it's okay." the jade bishop said once he's sure that he is not blushing anymore.

"Say, Teito where were you last nigh?"

This caught the little one off guard. He nervously looked over his friend, past the other occupants and directly at his so-called master. Sending a frown at the direction of a certain raven, he wished that there's someone who could help him in this situation.

And as always, here comes the savior of the troubled damsel.

"Hey Mikage-niichan are you bullying Teito-kun again?" Akira said while hooking an arm over Mikage's neck.

"Aki-kun! Well no, I'm not bullying Teito." he answered, gently unhooking Akira's arm in his neck. "I'm just wondering why Teito's not in our room last night."

"Oh? And why'd you asked?" he replied innocently.

I see, playing idiot with another idiot. Teito thought after getting a hold of Akira's ploy.

"W-well, I was about to ask him if he could accompany me last night for some fresh air but I he's not in his bed when I woke up." Mikage answered while nervously scratching his scarred cheek. "And I was about to ask him again this night."

Oooh, I smell a date! / It can't be! Is he trying to ask me a date? Were the thoughts running in the minds and of Akira / Teito.

"Anou… Mikage s-su-"

"Sorry Mikage but Teito's coming with me tonight." Akira suddenly interrupted. There's no way that you will ruin our practice."Sure's the night's cold Mikage-niichan, so why hanging outside? You might catch a nasty cold or something." he remarked all the while waving his fingers in front of Mikage's face for emphasis.

"Ummm… hehe, that's not the case. I wanted to see that person."

.

.

.

"What?" said by the vessels in unison.

"Yeah, that person. I think you don't have any idea of what I'm talking about no?"

"But of course! We are indeed clueless niichan." Akira supplemented before casting Teito a knowing glance. Teito frowned in misunderstanding, clearly clueless of whatever the two are pointing. "So who's this person you're talking about?" Akira said, turning his attention back at Mikage.

"Well Akira, when I'm out last night, I heard a melody, or moreover a requiem, echoing throughout the church. I followed it, though when I reached the church's main hall, it disappeared." he blurted out while praying that he's not blushing.

"Okay, so why are you blushing so suddenly?" was the unexpected reply from Akira.

Looks like God's not in favor for Mikage.

"What? I'm not blushing?!"

"Oh yes you are."

Sighing in defeat, Mikage pulled through and breathed heavily. He didn't know how to voice this and maybe no one would believe him.

Well… whatever.

"I think I've fallen for that person. I really love her voice." he said, eyes gleamed in a soft glow and cheeks tinted in a light shade of pink. "I know that I may sound a little carried away by novels and romantic stories, but really…"

.

.

.

Teito couldn't believe it, but Akira's methodology sure is paying off. Although at first he is very reluctant to go with his friend's seemingly peculiar way of making a man fall in love with you, but now, he couldn't believe it but it's really effective. Mikage really fell for it and he must say that…

This is too good to be true…

"I think I've fallen in love." Mikage finished with his voice dreamy and eyes concentrated to the candle in front of him.

And as if on cue, Teito dashed away. Dragging Akira (who was screaming bloody murderer) by the arm, he made a mad run towards the gate outside the dining hall, leaving a confused Mikage behind.

"Teito!" he shouted, trying to follow his friend before deciding to let him go for now.

Teito, what now? What's wrong with you all of a sudden? he asked not to anyone in particular.

As for Teito, he continued to dash towards an unknown place while dragging a screeching Akira like a rag doll.

"Teito wait! Please calm down!" Akira yelled, all the while flying like a kite as Teito dragged him while running away. All of a sudden, the jade bishop pulled into a stop before letting go of a certain raven, sending Akira flying towards the wall. Teito panted for air, his face flushed from the sudden run combined with all the emotions he's feeling. Akira got up slowly, rubbing his head that throbbed like hell.

How could he not after he was thrown into the wall?

"What's the big idea?" the raven yelled, irritated by the beating he's getting today. He was about to complain and rant about ungrateful brunettes when he heard a series of sobs.

Teito was crying…

"Teito?" the raven whispered as his concern for his apprentice arises and his motherly instinct clicking in. Teito suddenly kneeled, body trembling while crying. Akira moved closer and hugged the crying brunette. "Teito, why are you crying so suddenly? What's wrong?"

"Mikage. Mikage said that he's in love." he managed to stutter. He sobbed a series of cries before continuing. "I know that the person he's talking to was me. I felt happy when he said that my cooking is good, that I looked beautiful and all. I even felt happier when he said that he had fallen in love in my singing…"

And he cried louder, well, bawled like a child.

"You said you're happy, okay that I understand but the thing I do not is that why are you bawling like a child?"

"I thought you're smart? Couldn't you understand my situation? Where are your brain cells?"

Where are my brain cells? Akira thought while checking his temper if it is in minimum level.

"Akira, from now on, Mikage will be looking for us during our night practices. What if finds out, that the owner of the voice he's so in love with was me? Teito Klein, his best friend and a guy?" suddenly, Teito gripped at Akira's shoulders and forced him to looked into his puffy eyes. "Do you have any idea how he will react?"

"Well, yeah I think but isn't it the reason why we're doing this entire charade? To make him aware of your feelings?" Akira replied, frowning because he couldn't grasp whatever Teito was trying to convey.

C'mon where are my brain cells? Aren't they functioning? Are they in a vacation? Akira said to his self.

"I know that but now, I'm I don't know anymore. I might be trying to make Mikage to be my lover but what if he refuses? Not only my chance of having a romantic relationship with him will be unrealized but as well as our friendship will be in trouble! He might be disgusted at me afterwards and avoid me…"

After that outburst, Teito resumed on crying, dread eating his young heart while anxiety leaking out from his body and finding refugee in Akira's emphatic senses. Having an apprentice who is a clueless, anxious boy, and to top it all, a crybaby, Akira felt his brain cells start popping one-by-one.

Oh c'mon you good-for-nothing chief of Heavens do something! It's your daughter who's crying here!!! Akira screeched mentally before continuing. "Hush young one, crying wouldn't solve anything."

"But Akira…"

"Don't worry, everything is under my control. If things were about to get messy during our practice, I'll teleport us away."

"But what about me staying in our room? He would get suspicious of me missing every night!" Teito blurted out, his crying subsided but still sobbing a little.

An eerie breeze flown their way and chilly wind spread across the corridor. Akira collected his self and stand up, all becoming silent beckoning Teito to become anxious at the sudden change of mood.

"Akira?" Teito pried, searching for Akira's eyes which are hidden under his drooped raven hair.

"I have the right person in mind; he can help us in that matter." was the confident reply of his master. Turning for another destination, Akira walked away in a series of long strides, leaving Teito dumbfounded but not long after that, he came to think of a certain bishop. He couldn't believe it and so he seeks confirmation from Akira.

"Akira, don't tell me you're planning-"

"Indeed Teito, I'm planning to talk to Bishop Castor."

Haha! That was long…

Poor Frau, teleported into nowhere, well don't get me wrong but though I like Frau's character, I really think that Mikage's better to be Teito's companion than him.

Well, that's the wrap! See you in the next chapter!
