Yousei's Story
Yousei's Story
Chapter 3
"So wait, that's how you two met?" Ana rubbed her temple, "But…if you walked off in different ways, how did you end up traveling together? It doesn't make sense…"
"That was just how we first met." Spoke Ryuu calmly, as he drank from his newly refilled mug. "If you didn't interrupt, Yousei would tell you what happened next. Her side of the story is a little more interesting then mine."
Ana glanced between the two, "Why? What did you do, Ryuu?" she passed her mug between her hands.
Ryuuzachi placed his mug down, his eyes narrowed, "Warlock stuff. That is all you need to know."
Ana smiled for a second, then looked to Yousei, "Anyway, tell me what happened next. Because at the moment, I still don't understand how…."
Yousei giggled, "Well, having no idea how I was going to get back to Darnassus, if I could get back at all, I made my way to Sentinel Hill. That's where I met a very interesting little Dwarf…."

…And sho, it wash about dat time when's I realized dat the pretty lady-type was'h really a guy wif long hair. Boy, was'h ma face'sh red." As were the drunked tales of a red breaded dwarf, who Yousei had the fortune to bump into on the way to the Inn. The two sat in front of a small stove in the corner of the Inn, a mug of ale in each their hands, Yousei's was still filled to the brim.
"Har! Why hashn't ya drank you ale? Itsh good stuff for a broken place like diss." The dwarf took a swig from his own mug, just to find it empty, "Gah! Emtay again!"
"You can have mine, if you wish." Yousei offered, holding her mug to the Dwarf.
"No!" The Dwarf yelled, "Dat is yoursh! And by the sounds of it,you've not tried it before. I not be lettin you leave till dat mug is emtay."
Yousei sighed, "Alright, alright, if you insist." She took the drink close to her nose and sniffed, recoiling in response. She looked up at the Dwarf who only smiled and encouraged her on. Yousei sighed again, plugged her nose and emptied the mug in one go.
The next thing she knew, she was laying in one of the Inn's beds and her head pounding. Yousei sat up with a groan and held the side of her head. "W-what happened?" she asked herself, her voice groggy and weak. Unexpectedly, her response was that of roaring laughter, which caused her flinch as the pain in her head spiked. "Ow…" she moaned and folded over into her lap, arms wrapped around her head.
Another laugh bellowed out, "Sorry about that, Lass. Keep forgetting that you're new at this."
Yousei peeked out from under her arm and saw the Dwarf sitting on the bed next to her. She grumbled and retreated back to the safety of her lap. "What happened?"
"Ha har! You took to the ale quiet well! Regular party animal, you are." The Dwarf jumped from his bed, and stood next to Yousei's.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, to make a long story short, you ended up atop the tower there and danced your heart out."
"What!?" Yousei shot straight to a sitting position, eyes wide, just to be over taken with pain and fell back to her lap.
"It was a great show! Who would have guessed a Priesty would be able to move like that!"
Yousei groaned, with pain and embarrassment. "Then what?"
"You passed out." The dwarf's laugh echoed through the Inn, "Then I brought you back here."
"Oh…thank you, Mr…uh..." Yousei stuttered.
"You can call me Kaotix, Lass. And what be your name?"
"I am Yousei, of the Sisterhood of Elune." She reached out a hand, her head still buried in her lap.
Kaotix took and shook it, "A pleasure, Lass, a pleasure. Now get some sleep, and get rid of that hangover. You're no use to anyone like this."
Yousei nodded, laid back in her bed, and pulled the covers over her head.

Ana chuckled, "You sure have come a long way in your drinking." Ryuu grunted, nodding in agreement, and flicked a copper coin at his Imp, which tried to eat it. From behind a pile of mugs, stacked into the shape of a pyramid, Yousei's laughed, "Yes, I guess I have. How does this look?"
"It looks very nice." Ana commented on the stack, "What happened next?"
"Hmm? Oh, Kaotix and I ended up going all around Westfall. We helped some of the locals with a few issues, we aided the Militia by thinning some of the Defias Gang, and even ventured into the heart of their lair, The Deadmines." Yousei reported, taking Ryuu's half finished mug, "We didn't have much luck getting their leader, but we got rewarded for our efforts."
Ana shook her head, "I still don't get it. If you were traveling with the Dwarf, how did you ended up with Ryuu?"
Yousei smiled, thought it could not been seen from behind the mugs, "Well, after all that and some drinking lessons, we went our different ways. He headed back to Ironforge, something about family honor or something, and I headed into Duskwood. I had heard that the Undead were rampaging about, and even a few rumors about the fabled lost staff of Elune, and so I naturally thought I could help and headed out for DarkShire."
