Amras eyes slid open as the sun rose through his open curtains and at the sound of his unconventional alarm clock that wouldn't shut up and he had no way of stopping it as he sat up he rubbed his head and blinked away sleep his eyes came into focus. The noise of the unconventional alarm clock was still resounding in his ears. Don't believe what people say by being awoken by the sound of birds chirping no matter what you are woken by you will still hate it. Amras gritted his teeth "CORVO SHUT UP!" He stood and turned violently to the offending creature perched on his headboard. Amras was in no way a morning person his eyes were black circles and he let out a massive yawn and arched his back, stretching his muscles and making a series of audible cracks as he stretched.
The door exploded and wave raced in its wake"Amras what's wr-" he was starring at him, then kourume and Seryu carrying Coro in her arms followed him in and froze upon the sight of him their eyes wide as saucers kourome's hand frozen sweet in hand about to pop it into her mouth. 'Its going to be one of those days' Amras thought lighting a cigarette he had grabbed from his bed side and began smoking.
"What are we all in here for?" Stylish asked deciding to see why there was a gathering in Amras' room took one look at him and his 'stylish' eyebrows hit the roof and behind him Bols stood like a statue his mask somehow blushing.
"What's going on in here?" Esdeath strode into the room closely tailed by run and looked around unaffected by Amras' current state. Amras knew they were starring at him but he didn't know why they were looking at him like he had grown a third leg. He looked up and down himself, a few battle scars but nothing unusual.
"Amras why are you naked?" Run asked
===== in the real world
Amras : wait you made me naked?
Waitwat98: I wanted to get some cheap laughs and i figured you wouldn't give a shit.
Amras : true I don't but you could have just used wave for this you know
Waitwat98 : I fancied throwing in an American pie type moment
Amras : why now?
Waitwat98 : get it out of my system and I was gonna do it later buuuut I didn't think you would appreciate It 'cause for..err... you know...
Amras : ...?, oh for THAT...
waitwat98 : yeah.
"What?" Amras asked the group who were still stood like statues except Esdeath who looked like she was holding in a laugh from the group's faces. 'Why is he so casual about this' wave thought.
Several minuets later The jagers were sat around the table with an almost awkward atmosphere but the only ones realy embarrassed by the situation were wave and Bols who poked their food as kourume stole large portions of it from their plates.
A/N: I am so sorry if you didn't like that I couldn't help myself any way this will continue from the opening of the tournament.
The tournament
Esdeath's face displayed the epitome of boredom these fights were slow, grown men playing gladiator this was comparable to watching paint dry for her. 'non of these men would be suitable for the imperial arms. She sighed maybe someone entertaining would come soon.
Amras paced the stands his eyes swivelling around in their sockets and every now and then a shadow would pass over him Letting him know corvo was above as the danger beast flew high in the sky like a sentinel. 'I hate crowds, they make it easy to hide and difficult to get a decent shot and if the crowd panics they become a deadly tidal wave of self preservation.' Then a mother though reared its head in his mind 'maybe she is here'. he could almost feel himself slapping himself, this was a big place and there is no guarantee that she would be here anyway I have to be realistic.
Hope for the best assume the worst.
That's my motto' he thought to himself as he began to walk to the front rows of the stands as a fight finished and wave announced the winner I don't really bother listening and starred ahead and light a smoke and turn towards the centre of the turned to his right and he felt like he got punched in the gut. Sitting two meters from him was Leone. She was definitely older, taller but was definitely her.
"Leone?" Amras asked
The blond turned to the source of the voice she clearly didn't recognise the voice and this one wasn't yelling about money. Before her was a man tall man with a cigarette in hand, and was carrying a bow and quiver along with a range of canisters and throwing knives on a leather strap as well as at least three concealed weapons she guessed but then it struck her who this person was.
"Amras!"
"It's been a while, 7 years right?" Leone jumped up and brought the archer into a bone crushing hug then releasing him. Then a green haired man spoke up "Leone who is this guy"
"Lubbock this is Amras an old friend"
"Look Tatsumi is about to fight" the green haired man said directing our attention to the centre of the arena where a young man starring down a man easily twice his three remained silent As the match began and Tatsumi already grabbed the upper hand in the fight
"He's quite impressive"Amras commented as Tatsumi landed a hard punch in the mans gut.
"He is but there is still room for improvement"Lubbock said. Tatsumi finished the fight the arena disappearing from view in a cloud of dust. When the dust cleared Tatsumi stood victorious and the crowd roared in appreciation
"sorry to cut this short but I'm working right now, so do you want to catch up over a drink at 7?" Amras asked leone
"Sure at the old place right?" They both went silent as they saw Esdeath descend down the steps to the arena floor. The crowd kept cheering.
"This could be bad" Amras commented, Corvo cawed "or really good that too" Amras said voicing the birds thoughts. Lubbock and Leone then asked quietly "who areal talking to." In unison not knowing that the bird was Amras'.
Esdeath and Tatsumi were speaking normally and they were too far away from the centre of the arena to even guess what was being said. Suddenly Esdeath started to drag the young man across the arena floor "what the?" Amras muttered as Esdeath continued to drag the man out. "Sorry leone I got to go, I swear Esdeath will be the death of me." Amras said before sprinting full tilt in the direction of Esdeath and the other jaegers. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON"Lubbock cried.
Several hours later Amras pulled on his hooded overcoat and left the jaeger headquarters and stuffed his hands in his pockets and held a smoke in his lips as he walked to the tavern. 'Today was weird, meeting leone Tatsumi being dragged like a sack of potatoes by an infatuated Esdeath, everyone starring at me this morning. Still a least me and leone could catch up.'
The tavern was well occupied but still had enough room to sit, it smelt of smoke and alcohol. A group of men played darts in the corner another was hitting on a girl at the bar, badly. "Amras, Amras... Amras!" Leone stood up at the bar waving her arms in the air a broad grin on her face. Amras raised his arm and walked towards her.
"Hey leone, I guess I'm paying or have you actually got a job?" Leone looked serious.
"how's Tatsumi?" She asked plain and simple in concern for her friend and comrade.
"relax he is fine, well as fine as you can be if your Esdeath's love interest."
Leone's hand went to her mouth to cover a laugh that sounded relived. "Really?"
"oh yeah, she's been trying to seduce him since he woke up from being knocked unconscious. And he is havering none of it,he's blushing like a schoolgirl whenever her boobs get too close and you should have seen when he met Bols" Amras said unable to finish his line of thought and almost falling off his stool as he laughed heartily.
Amras called the barman opened a tab and ordered two beers.
Leone spoke up the smile faded from her face as she wrapped the cold beverage in her hand. "so, what happened I thought you would be in prison or worse?"
"That's a long story"
"I have time"
Amras took a breath and began to recount the past seven years to leone leavening out that corvo was a danger beast.
"So your one of the jaegers?" She sounded like she had been stabbed in the gut.
"Yeah" Amras replied solemnly finishing his first glass leone was on her 5th and still sober. "They are ok once you get to know them." Leone then brightened
"So where is your bird anyway?" Amras grinned evilly.
"Oh stylish is watching him."
-meanwhile
"GET IT OFF ME, GET IT OFF ME!" Stylish yelled in a high pitched voice running like a bat out of hell as corvo attacked his hair relentlessly whilst the other jagers watched sitting around the table giggling like monkeys.
A few hours later leone was out of it, completely drunk, unable to move without aid.
"Well you certainly drank more than you used to" Amras joked wrapping leone's arm around his neck and half dragged her half carried her out the tavern. He was completely sober only having two glasses and water, he was surprised the drunk blond wasn't killed by alcohol poisoning. "AMRAAAAAS, take me home" she whined,"I don't know where you live" he responded.
"Take me home" Amras sighed, he would have to take her with him, he couldn't leave her in this state.
It was 1am by the time they got back to the jaegers barracks and Amras was carrying a barely conscious leone bridal style because she lacked the ability to walk. Amras pushed the door to his room with his back and stepped to the double bed and looked down at the woman who was cuddling up to the warmth of Amras' chest mumbling inaudibly and smiled. "At least I wasn't chased through the streets" he said to no one in particular. He peeled back the sheets and laid the woman down who fell asleep on contact with the mattress, removed her shoes and pulled the duvet back over her.
Amras went to the bathroom, peeled off his overcoat and jacket leaving only a short sleeve t shirt, turned on the tap and splashed water on his face. Leone had changed a lot in seven years, well he had but he knew she was keeping something from him and he wasn't going to pry she would tell him when she was ready. He herd some fluttering from the bedroom and he looked to the headboard where Corvo perched over leone and tilted his head. "Yeah Corvo she's the one I told you about" answering the imagined question from the bird. he rubbed his face dry and climbed into bed next to leone facing away from her and fell asleep.
