♕ first;

[You find yourself in a castle: a large, impressive one, with a moat made out of lava. The inside is just as impressive, if not for the occasional penguin-like creature running through the place.

And one of them is being kicked straight out of one room in particular.]

And don't come back until you get me that pudding from Etna, got it?!

[The penguin replies with a stammered-out "Y-Yes, sir, dood!" and runs off. If you choose to enter the room, you'll find a young boy with two hair antenna sticking up lounging around, watching something while eating popcorn. Whatever it is isn't important, though.

It's the boy, who'll only register your presence after a minute or so. And, even then, it seems as if he's mistaken you for the penguin. And who wouldn't, when their attention is focused on the TV?]

Didn't I tell you not to come back until you got me that pudding?!

[Indeed. Popcorn?

He manages to duck in time, then charges towards where he saw it, fist covered in flames again while he swings his sword.]

[Don't mind if I do!]

[Of course, Ami isn't there anymore by then. She's not as good at this as Zoisite, who can move fast as the wind, or even Kunzite who-

Of course.

Ami's vanished, and this time she doesn't reappear. No further attack comes. Just silence.]

Great. [He lowers his sword, looking around.] Now where the hell is Etna? This place isn't going to fix itself.

[Then Ami winks back into the room. She whips up a water vortex and flings it at Laharl from behind.]

[He turns around, shock on his face, then brings up his sword, managing to withstand the force of the vortex, though he is pushed back a little.]

[Well, that wasn't as good as hoped; but it was something. This time, when she vanishes, it truly is for good as she wakes up.

She shakes her head once she's awake. How did she ever dream up something like that, even in the dream world nexus? She almost, almost smiles; it was a good fight.]

[tiniestoverlord.livejournal.com]

[And Laharl wakes up as well, realizing that no, his castle has not been destroyed, thankfully.]

What the hell was that?

[He doesn't expect any response, but he does smirk. That was a good fight, better than he had expected out of a human.

Maybe they'll fight again someday.]
