"Here Snorkel! Catch boy!" An threw a blue ball down the hall way. Why was she playing catch in the hall way? Because she didn't have anywhere else to go. The Dining Room was reserved for a 'special meeting', whatever that meant.

The past two days had consisted of just her and her pet dragon, playing Catch or Hide-the-royal-pain-in-the-ass's-slipper game.

"Snorkel? What the hell kind of name is that?"

An turned around to see a boy, barely older than she was, leaning against the wall next to her.

She frowned, "Umm…you are…?"

He stared at her, "Your future husbands successor." He said slowly, "Ryoma Echizen, Lucifer no.1000." He walked past her to bend down in front of the baby dragon. He reached out to gently rub its head.

An smiled and laughed, deciding to ignore the future husband part, "Hey! He likes you."

Ryoma looked up at her, "Why? Doesn't he act friendly usually?"

"Nope," An sighed, "yesterday, he almost bit off Sengoku's hand clean off."

Ryoma smirked, "Oh?"

An tapped her chin lightly, "Hmm…you know what? I don't actually remember being able to talk with you yet. You don't really seem like the talkative type, so I'm kind of surprised you wanted to have a normal conversation."

Ryoma sighed, 'The things I get myself into…' he frowns as he reflects on what had happened earlier that day.


"You want me to what?" Ryoma stared at Kirihara, well the back of his chair.

"You heard me! Just go and talk with her, find out some…stuff."

Ryoma raised an eyebrow, "And that would be what exactly?"

"I don't know! Ask anything! Her favorite food or her favorite pair of socks anything! Just try to dig something interesting up!" Kirihara snapped angrily at the younger boy.

"Wait…you want me to find blackmail material? Is that what you're trying to say?"

"Oh good, you're getting it."

"You're sinking that low huh? Are you that interested in her or…?"He frowned slightly at the words that left his lips next, "Are you thinking of he-"

"Shut up! Don't talk about it! Besides, this wasn't my idea! It was Mizuki, he told me if I can't deal with her anymore, I should just get my hands dirty." Kirihara huffed angrily.

"You mean my hands dirty." Ryoma mumbled, brushing a piece of lint of his jacket.

Kirihara gave him a hard glare, Ryoma shrugged and headed out the door, he wasn't going to win this one.


"Hey." Ryoma started slowly as he continued to pet Snorkel.

An turned towards the younger boy, "Yeah?"

"What's your favorite color?"

An raised an eyebrow, "And you need to know why?"

"Kirihara wants to know what color underwear to buy for you." He said in a serious tone.

Oh, that guy was going to get it now.


"I'm willing to bet 50.000 gold pieces that she'll find out the truth and dump him!" Atobe smiled coyly as he rubbed the ring on his finger.

Tezuka sighed, "Then I'll bet that she won't find out, but she'll leave him anyways."

"I'm willing to bet that she won't leave him, but she won't marry him." Sanada said slowly. The three then turned to the red head, arms splayed on the table with a frown on his face.

"Come on 102, we don't have a century to waist on you!"

"Aww…come on Atobe! Give me some more time!"

"Marui, just make your bet." Sanada said flatly as he turned towards the red head.

"Yes, it wouldn't matter anyways; I'll surely win this one." Atobe smirked, "It's obvious isn't it?"

"No, it's not." Marui muttered under his breath, "If it was so obvious, how come I don't know what to bet on?"

"Haha, now, now, Marui, it's just a bet. Here, I'll give you a hand." Sengoku smiled as he plopped down beside Marui and leaned in to whisper in his ear.

Marui's eyes grew wide as saucers, and soon a grin spread across his face, "Yeah!"

Tezuka looked at Marui, "And your decision?"

"I bet…I bet…she'll find out and…and…they'll live happily ever after!" he smiled triumphantly.

Atobe scoffed, "This isn't a stupid mortal fairy tail 102, as far as we can tell, 999 is no Prince charming and his woman is definitely not a goody-goody pansy."

"Say that when I earn 150,000 gold pieces." Marui smiled.


A/N: Sorry for the lack of any updates, just too darn lazy. Not to mention lack of interest for this series. I only continued because I myself hate it when people leave stories unfinished, it drives me crazy. Will there be any future updates? Possibly, in a few weeks or so.
