I do not own Magi

Last time on Magi: Inurned City of Magic

"Let's go!" Alibaba says as they begin to disappear.

Qishan, three weeks later

Morgiana and Erol are walking through the streets, on their way to see the new master of the town.

"So how does it feel to be free Morgi?" The green-haired boy asks.

"It actually feels kinda nice" The red-head smiles.

"That's definitely good to hear pulchram cerasus" Erol grins.

"What does that mean?" Morgiana asks curiously.

"Oh, you'll need to ask Alibaba or someone, or I can tell you...when the time is right" The green-haired boy smirks cheekily "Speaking of Alibaba, why are we going to see him? Not that I'm complaining"

"I'm going to thank him for freeing the slaves" The red-head says plainly.

"That seems like a good enough reason" Erol says as the two enter the manor where Alibaba now resides.

"Master Alibaba will be with you in a moment, please be patient" A woman smiles.

After a few minutes of waiting, a very jovial looking Alibaba descends the stairs, his face lowering when he sees it's Morgiana and Erol, not Aladdin.

"Why are you two here?" The blonde asks, with a pinch of curiosity and slight hostility in his voice.

"Morgi wanted to talk to you" Erol explains.

"Okay, what about?" Alibaba queries.

"I...want to thank you for freeing the slaves...me included.." Morgiana says gratefully.

"It's no problem...but I am very busy so I must go" The blonde says "Goodbye friends" He calls back as he retreats upstairs.

"Let's go Morgi" The green-haired boy smiles.

"Okay" The red-head nods.

The next day

Morgiana and Erol are wandering the streets after hearing from one of Alibaba's servants that he's gone to Balbadd.

"How are we going to get to Balbadd?" The red head asks.

"Let's ask a caravan if they're heading that way then work for them until we reach our destination" The green-haired boy suggests "Look. There's one over there" He points to a caravan loading up things, the most prominent members to the two teens are the blonde girl and the darker-skinned raven-haired girl packing up boxes.

"You talk first" Morgiana says whilst 'lightly' nudging Erol, when she actually just rammed him in the side.

"Ow my side!" The green-haired boy yelps "Why me? Why not you?"

"Because you're male and they're both female, I've picked up on the way girls look at you" The red-head retorts.

"Okay" Erol smiles as he strides over "Hello?"

"Why hello handsome~ Here to buy something?" The blonde asks.

"No. I came to ask a question; is this caravan heading to Balbadd?" The green-haired boy queries.

"It sure is, you needing to head there?" The blonde queries.

"Yeah. Me and my friend over there" Erol says whilst gesturing to Morgiana.

"Of course you'd be working for us until we got there...what's your name?" The blonde questions him.

"I'm Erol and my friend's name is Morgiana we need to get to Balbadd to find a dear friend" The green-haired teen explains.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Leila and the girl over there is my friend Sahsa" She explains.

"You'll have to speak to my father about joining" Sahsa smiles.

"Sahsa? Who are these two?" The raven-haired girl's father asks.

"We'd like to join your caravan sir, we need to get to Balbadd" Erol bows "We're visiting an old friend, who is the new lord of Qishan"

"What is the lord of Qishan doing in Balbadd?" The caravan leader asks.

"A servant told us he had 'business to attend to there'." The green-haired boy explains.

"Okay, you two can join us. But you have to work" Sahsa's father says.

"That's fine, isn't it pulchram cerasus?" Erol says, causing Sahsa and her father to smile at the name the green-haired boy gave Morgiana.

"Yes" The red-head nods.

"Alright! Welcome to the caravan!" Leila smiles "We're just about to have dinner once we're done packing, so how about you two join us?"

"That'd be very much appreciated Leila" Erol smiles.

Later that night

Sahsa and her blonde friend watch with bemused expressions as a drowsy Morgiana shuffles across the floor from her sleeping bag, crawling in with the sleeping green-haired boy and wrapping her arms around him.

"Should we tell them this happened?" The raven-haired girl asks.

"No, let's keep this as our little secret" Leila chuckles quietly as she and Sahsa watch the red-head snuggle into Erol.

"Aren't they just so cute together?" Sahsa smiles.
