Chapter 4 (in which an actual plot is established ^_^)

Three days later our group was leaving Xoana on their way to Atlas
City with two new companions.

`Damn them! Damn them! Damn them! Damn them!' Zerena thought `why'd
they have to use such dirty tactics!'

<*>*<*> Flashback Time<*>*<*>

Zerena Company were standing in the throne room with Martina, Zangulas
& Gerik.

Zerena was standing with her arms crossed, eyes closed and a look of
extreme annoyance on her face, which could be due to the fact that
Leila was trying to braid her hair. "No" Zerena stated simply, trying
to knock Leila away. "That stuck-up brat is not coming with us."

The stuck-up brat looked annoyed at the comment and looked to his
parents giving them the look that parents can't resist...the puppy dog
face.

Martina looked at Zerena "you do know that Lina Inverse destroyed my
kingdom and never paid for the damages, right?"

Zerena nodded.

"Well" Martina continued "If you let Gerik-Chan travel with you, you
won't have to pay for what Lina did."

Zerena growled and mulled it over. `Let the brat travel with us or
spend a fortune? Hmmm...Alright the brat can come with us but first
I'm not gonna let them win completely' She composed herself and
smiled. She levitated up and stood on the chandelier above the massive
throne room.

"In the name of justice, I, Zerena Greywords De Seyruun, say he can
travel with us and be a fellow champion of justice! It would be very
unjust to spend our traveling money when this could be solved in a
manner much more just and cheaper!"

She leapt from the chandelier and performed a spectacular twist and
several back flips in the air before landing in a handstand. She then
gracefully planted one foot then the other behind her so she was bent
in an arch for a moment then pushed herself to her feet with her
hands.

The others were staring at the acrobatic display and were momentarily
over their nausea from her Justice speech. Zerena smirked and combed
her hair out of her right eye with her fingers, where it promptly fell
right back. She mentally growled `Dad and his damned hair genes.'

<*>*<*> End Flashback <*>*<*>

Zerena was still going over her mental mantra of `Damn Them!'. Gourrin
was following happily. Leila was hovering behind Val trying to tie
little pink bows in his hair. Valterra was swearing at Leila in close
to thirty different languages, at least ten of which were dead
languages. Milissa was walking along and trying to apply makeup at the
same time. And Gerik trying to get the girl's attention and failing
miserably. None of them knew that they were being watched.

<----------------------------------------------------- -----*>*<*------
------------------------------------------------ ---->

The silver haired figure watched them pass then teleported back to her
master. The girl knelt and said "Lord Deep Sea Dolphin, the group
you've been watching has gained two new members. A Golden Ryuuzoku
girl and a mere human boy."

Deep Sea Dolphin jumped off of her throne and clapped and generally
looked completely nutty. She did that for several minutes then
composed herself. "Gin-Kami (*Silver-Hair. Well Deep Sea is insane so
you've got to expect weird names) my General, you've done good as a
reward I have this for you." Deep Sea Dolphin held out a dead fish.

Gin-Kami sweatdropped and accepted "erm...t-thank you Lord Deep Sea
Dolphin."

Deep Sea Dolphin grinned similar to Xelloss and then called out
"Kin-Kami! (*Gold-Hair) Come here!"

A gold haired figure appeared beside Gin-Kami and bowed to Deep Sea
Dolphin.

"Kin-Kami, my Priest, I want you to continue watching that group with
Gin-Kami."

Gin-Kami & Kin-Kami said their acknowledgments, bowed then left the
room. The pair walked out of the room and down a seemingly endless
hallway.

The two look exactly alike except for their color choices and the fact
that they were a male and female. Both had straight hair reaching to
the small of their backs in their respective colors. They both wore
harem style pants and martial arts shoes, also in their respective
colors. Gin-Kami wore a silver bikini top in addition to her silver
harem pants and shoes.

Kin-Kami brushed his gold hair behind his ears and looked at Gin-Kami
"Gin, what do you think Dolphin-Sama wants with these kids?"

Gin-Kami repeated the motion with her silver hair and answered "Dunno
bro, but I'm not gonna argue with her. She'll throw us in the box
again."

They both shivered at the thought. Finally they reached the end of the
hall and teleported to the town where Zerena Company were currently
occupying.

<------------------------------------- ---------------------*>*<*------
-------------------------------- -------------------->

Zerena sneezed. "'scuse me."

"So Miss Zerena, why are you going to Atlas City?" Milissa asked.

"I've heard they have some of the best magic shops around there, so I
want to see if there's anything I want there."

"Why wouldn't you just go to the shops in Seyruun?" Gerik supplied.

"Because Seyruun is the white magic capital. That means if I want to
look for stuff related to black magic or some of the darker shamanist
magics I have to leave town."

"Oh, alright" Gerik said then returned to trying to get Milissa &
Leila to go on a date.

Zerena sighed and resisted the urge to Flare Arrow him. `At least he
gave up on me after he ended up on the wrong end of a Vlave Howl' She
thought and mentally smirked.
