With MOST of the captains of the famous guild in one place, things weren't exactly quiet. There were hundreds of fangirls (and fanboys for some reason) surrounding the poor captains.

"Sir Xeno! Would you marry me?!"

"Most definitely not." The white haired lord knight said curtly making the fangirl burst into tears and run away wailing. Oscar on the other hand was enjoying their attention while the others manage to slip away in different directions.

Meanwhile, Edward, Orpheus and Camus were now standing in front of an attraction called "WHACK THE HODE!". Edward and Orpheus watched in amazement and fear as Camus began pounding the poor hodes as if it was the end of the world.

"Uh…999 points…HIGHEST SCORE! YOU GET ANYTHING YOU WANT!" The attraction keeper shouted as he shuffled to the side leaving Camus wondering which prize he should get.

"Wow…Camus…how did you manage to get so…strong?" Edward asked cautiously. Camus, choosing a big teddy bear with a red bow, smiled.

"Well, my dad was a monk and he used to push me off cliffs and make me break rocks before breakfast. Once he even went far as dropping me off a waterfall."

"……………………"

Edward and Orpheus looked at each other dumbfounded. Camu's dad was either crazy or out of his mind.

"Didn't your mom say anything about it?" Orpheus asked astonished.

Camus shook his head. "No, my mom was a monk too. She actually supported what dad did. Actually, she's a lot stronger than dad. She's a champion now."

"Camus…" The hunter spoke slowly as he took a step back from Camus.

"What?"

"You have one messed up family there…"

"……………"

For the next several minute screams could be heard at the swordsman and hunter ran around the festival followed by an acolyte swinging the hammer from the attraction.

"…that was a nightmare…my honor as a knight is tainted…"

Julian mumbled to herself as she sat down on a bench near by. She managed to sneak away from the crowd but found herself completely lost. Her map and sword were all taken away from the bimbo shopkeepers and she has no idea where Griever would have put them. In short, she was screwed.

Plus she was still in the clothing they have forced her in, making it quite chilly in the costal winds at night.

Just when she thought things could not get any worse, a drunken knight appeared in front of her.

"Well I'll be damned. What do we have here?"

She could smell the rotten stench of alcohol from them even a mile away.

"You must be cold outside. Why don't you come with us? We know a great place…"

The retarded knight said his hand grabbed her arm only to be slapped away.

"Why don't you idiots go fuck yourself somewhere else?" Julian swore, she was not having a good day or in a good mood and this was not the time she wanted to deal with anything. Unfortunately, that struck a nerve in the knight.

"You bitch! You don't know who your messing with!" The knight raised his hand only to be stopped by another individual.

"It seems that you do not know who your messing with."

A cold voice came from behind the drunken knights as there was a loud crack to be heard followed by a painful yell. The knight fell backwards cursing as he held his bleeding hand and glared at the man standing in front of him. Galore, it was Xeonhart Shadin all dressed in his high wizard uniform.

"Who the hell are YOU!"

Xeonhart smirked. "That you do not need to know, however, I will tell you that the person who you just touched with your filthy hand in none other than Julian Douglas. Daughter of Logan Douglas."

The knight jaw dropped at he looked back at Julian and then at Xeonhart. After saying incoherent and weird words he let out a wail and disappeared into the crowd. Leaving a stunned Lord knight and a conceit high wizard.

"Fool, maybe I should massacre his guild later…" Xeonhart said coolly as a guild emblem from the drunken knight appeared in his hand. Without warning he crushed the emblem as the remains turned to dust and disappeared in the air.

"That will only leave a scar in the guild Xeonhart."

"Not that I care. But I will say this."

His icy blue eye clashed with pure blue eyes. Julian and Xeonhart sent a daggering glare at each other almost creating an intense atmosphere.

"You won't be able to go far with threats in that outfit." The high wizard continued making the blonde very flustered and annoyed.

"Shut up I know that. I didn't wear this because I wanted to you know!" Julian hollered and blushed in embarrassment.

Xeonhart simply sighed. "However, as much as I hate to do this. I cannot leave you unattended especially in that attire."

"What is that suppose to mea…n?!" Her voice faltered as she felt something wrap around her and at the same time swept off her feet. Turns out the "something" wrapped around her was Xeonhart's bat like cloak and the second event well…Xeonhart was carrying her. (did I mention bridal style? LOL)

"W-what?! Put me down!"

"Stop fidgeting. This is the most effective and simple method. I do not want to drag you around in the crowd and increase my chance of losing you."

"I can walk!"

"With those…sandals? I highly doubt that you will go anywhere without tripping." Xeonhart said in a matter a fact way that ended the discussion because most of it was true. She had at least tripped four times before Xeonhart came.

"Your pretty light…for a knight that is…"

"Hey!" Julian snapped taking that somewhat as an insult. "What's that suppose to mean?!"

"Nothing…"

What Xeonhart is thinking right now…

"I cannot believe I dragged myself into this. First my messenger I was suppose to send to pick up my package in Alberta all the suddenly had an emergency errand to run to. Then when I arrive here I find out that they have the wrong shipment…then I meet up with Julian…can this day get any worse?…her skin is soft and warm though…not to mention stunning in this outfit…how dare that dirty knight touch her…wait a minute…WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING?!"

"Xeonhart?"

The high wizard snapped out of his thoughts as the blonde knight called him. Remembering what he has thought to himself he blushed a bit in embarrassment. Him, the one known as the coldest, and emotionless high wizard is having disturbing thoughts of a simple guild member. He must be sick or something.

"Do you wish to stay or wish to go back to the guild castle?" He asked as Julian pondered a bit on her answer.

"Well…I came with Griever, Richard and Orpheus. It would be rude to leave them…"

"Very well." Xeonhart said setting her down. "I will take my leave here. You may return my cloak tomorrow. I will be in my study." He said curtly as he turned his back to her and started to head back only to be stopped by the same voice.

"Wait!"

The high wizard looked back in surprise to see Julian running up to him. He lightly sweat dropped when she tripped face first in front of him. So much for graceful…

"Julian…don't run when you know you cannot walk without tripping." He said as he knelt down to help the clumsy blonde back onto her feet. After straightening herself up she took out a flower that appeared to be a witherless rose.

"I won it at one of the attractions in the festival…it may not be much but please take it as a token of appreciation for helping me."

It was tradition for a knight to pay back the debt of another however, Julian never did realize that there was a deep meaning the in the witherless rose. Xeonhart, knowing the meaning of the rose, felt a tingle of red come up onto his face.

"Julian…do you know what that is?" The slightly red silver haired wizard asked cautiously only to have a clueless response.

"It's…a rose?"

"……nevermind…" He said and sighed with a hand on his forehead. Someday, someone needs to explain many things to her. "It would be rude to decline a offer especially from a lady. Very well your token of gratitude is accepted."

The silver haired wizard said in a stiff and formal way. Apparently he did not want to be seen as anything else than a proper and cold gentleman who has a great deal of pride in himself.

"Julian! I was looking all over for you!" A white haired individual shouted running up from behind. And if anyone remembers the only white haired person in this story is Haku/Richard.

"Please don't wander off like that. Sir Xeno will have my head if he heard that something happened to you." Richard managed to say as he breathed heavily. Apparently he's been running around Alberta just to find her.

"Sorry?"

" Just please don't wander off……why are you holding out your 'empty' hand like that?"

"Empty? Can't you see that I'm holding a-" She was cut off when indeed she saw nothing in her hand. "What the? I had a rose just a second ago…"

"The one you won at the "Knock the bottle." Game?"

"How did you know?"

"Well, it's not usual for a blonde female to come up to the booth and then break every bottle on the table with just one ball."
