A/N: I just want to say thank you to everyone who said they liked the chapter! You know who you are! Thank you so much!
I've decided to write 2 Truth-or-Dare questions for each chapter now, because, well... otherwise, each chapter would be too short to be written for that long. Yeah.
This chapter uses agarfinkel 's truth for Alzack. And yes. If you review, or already reviewed, with a Truth/Dare question, your turn will come! I promise.
Chapter 3: Alzack is Way Too Overprotective
Alzack blinked, surprised. "Me?"
Bisca grinned, nudging her husband teasingly. "C'mon, Al! Just do it!"
"How come you didn't choose Gajeel?" Sting asked, poking his partner's arm irritatingly, causing Rogue to brush him off and push him away, slightly miffed. "Aren't you like, in love with him or something?"
Gajeel spat out the mouthful of iron he had previously been casually chowing away on, and wiped his mouth, growling, "What the hell, Saber?"
Rogue frowned, and punched him on the arm. "I am not in love with anybody," he declared solemnly, glaring at his annoying best friend. "And, unlike you, I'm straight."
"What?!" The guild burst into a cacophony of laughter.
"Seriously?"
"Buuuuurn!"
"Haha, that was total payback!"
Lucy laughed, prodding Sting with her foot teasingly, "Aw, Sting-kun, you... Haha! How come you didn't tell your onee-chan? Hahaha! So, who's the unlucky man?"
She cast an invisible glance at Yukino, whose head was lowered slightly, her eyes a little downcast.
Sting glared at her tiredly. "Lucy... Please. You know that I, the mighty Sting Eucliffe, am completely straight, and am completely unafraid to admit it."
Lector crossed his arms airily. "Yeah, Sting-kun's whatever he says he is! He's awesome!"
Lucy only looked away, snickering, as the White Dragon Slayer's previously bruised- although it was still abnormally large- ego suddenly blew up a whole notch once more, like the way a nuclear bomb exploded upon contact with whatever. "Egotistical," she muttered, although his sharp ears caught it.
"What? How am I egotistical? Lucy-chan, I'm just stating the facts," he remarked, grinning. At least Lector always had his back.
"Right," Lucy simpered sarcastically, before turning away, "Alzack, isn't it your turn?"
"Oh, um... Truth then, I guess." The ebony-locked man decided awkwardly, before turning to explain his choice at the many gaping faces. "I don't want to face a horrible death like Natsu and Gray."
Macao clapped him on the back, saying, "Aw, be a man!"
Wakaba only snorted.
"If your wife and daughter were both held captive by a dark guild," Rogue started calmly, ignoring the others' mini conversations, "and threatened to kill them if you didn't follow their demands, what would you do?"
"What?!"
"What kind of question is that?" Sting sweat-dropped, grinning awkwardly.
Rogue glanced at him sideways, not even bothering to turn his head. "I might need an idea for future reference. What would I do if you fell into a trap? I'd have to be there to save your inconsiderate little butt. Be more thoughtful, Sting."
The offended White Dragon Slayer held up his hands, "Okay, okay, jeez..."
Alzack rubbed his neck in thought, a worrisome look plastered on his face. "Uh..."
Asuka smiled cutely and patted her father's knee, "It's okay, Daddy, Mommy and I are fine!"
Bisca chuckled and patted the little girl's head. "Yeah, Al, don't sweat it. The look on your face is kinda jeopardizing."
Everybody turned back to Alzack, who was sweating furiously, a tight, narrow-eyed frown on his face, as if he was debating over whether to kill someone or not.
"Eh..."
"Hey, Alzack, buddy, you doing okay there?"
"Don't be mad, Alzack, dude. They're not gonna be kidnapped!"
"Yeah! If that ever happened, we'd definitely get revenge for you, Fairy Tail style!"
"Yeah!"
"Definitely!"
Lucy smiled, before turning to Rogue. "Hey, Rogue..."
"Hn?" He looked at her.
"Do you really think that was a good question?"
"Didn't you just hear what I told Sting?" Rogue raised an eyebrow at her, causing her to nod.
"Yeah, I know, but just look at Alzack now..."
They turned back to a flaming Alzack, who looked like he was ready to explode at any second. What an overprotective dad.
Mira giggled a little, seeing the scene that was unfolding right before her very eyes. Shy little Alzack getting all worked up about something that didn't even happen.
How cute.
"So? Alzack," she asked, a slight teasing edge in her voice, "what's your answer?"
The poor guy growled, looking at a gun that had magically requipped into his hands and gripping it tightly.
"I'll kill them before they get any chance to do anything!"
"Al, please calm down," Bisca pleaded to her still fuming husband, laying her cool hand over his in hopes to calm him down. He had gotten completely worked up just by thinking of the possibility of harm coming to his beloved, and had been fuming and grouching silently over it ever since. Rogue, on the other hand, had already politely apologized.
He finally breathed out a long, deep sigh, and muttered, "Sorry, Bis."
The green-haired beauty smiled charmingly, blushing a little. "It's fine, Al. You got me worried there."
"I did?"
"Yeah..."
"... Sorry. I was worried-" He colored, a little, "- about you and Asuka."
"Al," Bisca started quietly, seemingly unaware that the whole guild was staring at them with fascination, and placed her other hand over his, "just know that Asuka and I'll be fine, so you don't need to worry."
"What if it does happen though?" Alzack asked, frowning.
"Don't worry, we're a part of Fairy Tail. We'll make it out," the cowgirl declared solemnly, "and we'll be fine, because that's what you want."
Alzack looked downwards, suddenly interested in the oaken floorboards of the guild hall, before silently turning and pulling Bisca in for a fierce, loving kiss, oblivious of an indifferent, attention-wandering Asuka. The green-haired lady seemed stunned for a second, before she also responded, melting into the embrace. Mira squeaked, although it went unnoticed, and a bunch of girls cooed, commenting lightly on how sweet the two were.
As the two pulled apart, the ebony-locked man then wrapped his arms tightly around his love. "Please don't let that happen though. I couldn't stand it if we were separated."
Bisca blinked, before blushing, and returning the loving embrace. "I know, Al. I know."
As soon as they separated once more, Mira squealed loudly, the couple-y side of her going haywire inside, snapping the two out of their private little moment, "Aw! Oh my goodness! Sorry to interrupt you guys, by the way, but that was too cute!"
The Fairy Tail girls all chorused in united agreement, while a bunch of the guys nodded.
"Oh my gosh!"
"I never knew Alzack was so cutely overprotective!"
"You guys are such a cute couple!"
"Way to go, Alzack, my man!"
"Yeah, dude, that was just... wow!"
"Yup!"
"Aye sir!"
"I have to admit, Alzack, that was a new side of you."
"Who knew you were that overprotective?"
"That's hot!"
"Totally!"
"Did we ruin your private moment?"
"That was definitely awesome!"
"Guys..." Bisca muttered lowly, flushing as red as a tomato, while Alzack had turned a color that could put Erza's hair to shame.
"You guys are all so lovey-dovey, it makes me sick," Gajeel grouched from his table, jutting his jaw out. Lucy smirked.
"Don't tell me you're jealous of them, Gajeel."
"Psh, no way, Bunny Girl," the Iron Dragon Slayer snorted, sticking his nose up in the air. "I don't need to be molested and smooched to nothingness in public."
Both Bisca and Alzack turned redder at his statement, and turned away from each other. Levy also blushed slightly, and dejectedly looked away, although Lucy caught onto the gesture.
"You guys are so sweet!" Mira cooed, smiling. "Anyway, Alzack, why don't you go choose someone?"
"Uh, okay," the black-haired man shrugged, still slightly flushed from what had just happened. "Since Rogue didn't choose Gajeel, I'll just go with him instead."
The said person looked up with a raised eyebrow. "What?"
"Gajeel, truth or dare?"
Oh. My. Goodness. This chapter sucked! Alzack was way too OOC! I'm so sorry! D:
Even though it's kinda cute when he's overprotective, like when Bisca got turned to stone in the Fantasia arc.
Well, once I'm done with a bunch of other chapters, I'll redo some previous ones, including this one.
I'll update sooner than usual to make up for the lame-ness of this one!
R & R please, I need your suggestions, truths, and dares! Thanks so much!
