Author's Note :
Glad to see you here !
I'm so happy to see the reviews. They motivate me to continue writing.(´ヮ`)
Aww...please enjoy ! /
Disclaimer : I do not own Magi but Teanoka is mine. :3
Teanoka peeped at Sparto who was completely drunk."It's late. I should leave. "
"Naw... "Pisti let out a moan."We haven't had enough yet."
"You can continue without me. I still need to find somewhere to stay tonight..."
Pisti giggled, "Mahrajan today ... Tourists overflow~"
Sharrkan turned to her, chain around his neck let out soft clank when he did it, "You won't find any place now, it's too late to go and find ~ It's too late ~"
Seriously ...that isn't something to be happy about.
Sharrkan placed his arm around Teanoka to stable himself. "It's no fun. You drank so little! "He complained and sneaked his hand toward her face.
Teanoka noticed and elbow-attacked his stomach mercilessly.
"Ouch! Why didn't you attack Pisti when she did that!? "He backed and rubbed his stomach.
"Sorry. Spontaneous reaction. "She didn't sound sorry at all. They performed countless futile attempt to snatch her veil but still never going to give up. Teanoka let out a sigh, she was starting to feel tipsy. But seeing Sharrkan laughing like an idiot with Pisti joining him and Sparto just looked completely death as he laid on the table ... Teanoka laughed a little at their condition. At least her mind can still function.
She saw a sight of red. A man walked towards them.
"Heeey, baka Masrur! Wanna join us?" Sharrkan happily poked his face and Pisti passed a glass of wine to him, "Come, come! Driiink! "They don't look like they want to go home yet.
"Sorry to interrupt,but senpai ... it's late already. Ja'far.-san said we should better head back."
"Eh?"Pisti pouted and pointed, "Isn't that drunk Sin who is surrounded by many ladies? He can stay, we can stay too! "
"Yeah! Pisti is right."Sharrkan narrowed his eyes at that direction and muttered, "Hmm...? That lady who's dragging Sinbad looks familiar though..."
Marsus deadpanned, "That's Ja'far-san. "
Teanoka facepalmed. Sharrkan, go home. You're drunk.
"Hey! I will join you! "Yamuraiha appeared from nowhere with a furious and devastated look on her face.
"Hah! Let me guess."Unsure it's under the influence of alcohol or what, Sharrkan lets out an idiot laugh ."He ditched you? "
Smack! Her staff hit right on the Jack pot.
"That jerk! Doesn't appreciate magic at all! "She huffed.
Pisti throw herself at Yamuraiha, "Yamu ~ You ditched him?"Apparently, she's more cleaver than Sharrkan.
Yamuraiha poured a glass-full of wine and gulped it up in one shoot."That right!"
Since their attention was at Yamuraiha, Teanoka decided to leave. She drank quite a lot already, she is the type that will feel drowsy when drunk.
"Do you need me to escort you?"Masrur noticed and offered.
Teanoka jumped slightly when she realised that he was talking to her. She felt nervous talking to Masrur. He looks so tough."No, thanks."She said quickly and left.
"Sorry miss, but it's full."
Teanoka thanked and walked out from the last cheap motel in Sindria. Roadside isn't an ideal place to stay. So, maybe she should find a tree and sleep. Like a koala.
It's not the first time she had to sleep outside but she still couldn't help but curse her owner. Meh , I hope someday your expensive wall decorations fall on you while you're sleeping in your cozy bed. Sweet dream.
She chose a normal looking tress-She saw trees with zigzag trunk just now.- and tightly grabbed her cloak to block the night breeze. Here is away from the town, and it's quite. The sounds of nature are never a bother and she enjoyed them. This is actually a nice place to chill if the temperature wasn't that low.
I want fire. Her mind was befuddled by alcohol, and it's getting cloudy. She lets out a silent laugh. Fire is red, warm and it's very bright. Yea. It looks like that one under the tree.
...
Wait, what? She opened her eyes wide, all the sleepiness was gone as shock fall on her like a pile of cold water.
Something was standing below the tree she was resting but it's too dark for her to make out what it is except that it's red.
Then, it moved.
Crimson red eyes staring at her.
...
Teanoka was frightened, she slipped. The always-so-responsible gravity pull wasn't something pleasant."Whatever is on the ground! MOVEEE! "
It didn't.
Maybe the whatever under me doesn't speak human language. She notes to herself as she experienced free fall, she closed her eyes and comforted herself. People don't die falling from this height. I guess...
Oddly, she landed on something soft — it caught her from falling.
Under such close distance, she realized it is a human, the papagoras's boss.-Sorry. She can't get that title out of her mind.-
She stared at Masrur, dumbfounded in his arm. Masrur was kind enough to wait for her to respond. After a few minutes, she uttered, "T-thank you."
"Sorry for scaring you."He placed Teanoka down ."They are tying to find you so I told them you left."
Okay ... It's rube to leave without telling them. She touched her nose as she felt embarrassed. "Sorry. "
He slightly raised his eyebrows ,not sure why she's apologizing. "...They asked me to make sure you're safe. "And went back to sleep. Masrur silently added.
"Oh ... I decided to sleep on this tree."She pointed upward."So it's okay. You don't have to worry."
"..."But senpai wants me to make sure she's safe ... Masrur thought for a while and finally decided, "I like to sleep in the forest too, maybe I can accompany you. It's more comfortable here. "It's true.
"Thank you."She felt a warm flow in her heart.
"Don't mention it."He replied.
Teanoka was grateful anyway."Masrur san, how do you find me? "
"I followed your scent."He answered like it's nothing special."It's hard to find you out here but I noticed the smell of alcohol."He said with his flat voice.
Awkward ... Teanoka didn't pick up any scents but that doesn't mean others don't. She frowned slightly at this thought.
Masrur noticed her behavior and placated,"I have rather acute sense of smell."
"Oh ... okay."She blushed as she knew that he saw her childish behavior. She was surprised that Masrur isn't a harsh person as she thought he is, and the fact that he's so strong but caring makes her felt well disposed towards him.
After a few minutes of silent.
"...Masrur san you asleep yet? "Teanoka asked softly on the tree."I want to ask you something... "
"? "His voice came from the bottom.
"The king. How he is like?"I just wanted to confirm...
"He's ... something，" His answered honestly and added, "But he did everything to keep this kingdom in peace."
Teanoka let out a weary laugh and covered her eyes with her arm."... Nice king."
She was in dilemma. There is a balance in her mind. Her responsibility for her siblings, and the conscience at the other end. Both of them is so heavy that she wished she can just throw them away.
This is it! Chapter 4! I hope you like it.◉w◉
