" Ha.. ha... ha. hachu!!!" Sugi sneezed and quivered, he could feel someone was talking behind him again.
" Sugi.. are you cold? Sorry to let you walk in the cold wind with me -_-.." Ryu looked really worried.
" Oh nono I'm fine, don't worry!" Sugi beamed unpon Ryu. He felt really warm inside, as he couldn't recall anyone being so tender to him before. Not that no one likes him ( even just the thought of that would seriously hurt his ego), it's just that he is most of the time a loner and reveals little of what he's feeling inside to others, and thus people assume he's a tough guy
who doesn't need help. But he does feel weak and lonely from time to time, how he wishes there would be someone to treat him as someone special!
"Oh and Sugi.." Ryu blushed and said in a low voice," Thank you for what you did for me tonight.. I.. I'm so useless.. being protected by a lady like you.."
Sugi was dumfounded! Of course!! The reason Ryu's treating him so nice is because he believes that he's a fragile lady who needs male protection!!
Sugi felt a little disappointed but quickly comforted himself: Ryu just met me ma! So maybe the chemistry he felt between them was actually one-way but he could work on that.
"No problem! In fact, you don't have to worry anymore! I'll be your personal guard from now on!" Sugi obviously has forgotten what he was actually hired for ^^;;
" Wha.. wha.. what do you mean??" Ryu was shocked.
" I was hired by your boss to protect you.. um.. actually the whole pub.. from taihen customers like the ones I beat up tonight!"
"Bu.. but.."
" Hey don't worry!! I had received professional training to protect the quee.. myself!! You know.. um.. rich kids all have to know how to protect themselves cos they are always under the danger of being kidnapped.." Sugi was trying to justify the reason that he was such a Rambo.
"That's.. not what I'm really worrying about.." Ryu lowered his head.
"Then what is it??"
"I really don't think Extasy is a place for a lady.. and I .. I don't want you to see me work there.. the more you see there, the more you would know
how dirty that place is and the more you would look down on me for working
there.." Ryu's voice was barely audible.
Sugi felt his heart ached, but said brightly," What are you talking about?? Why should I look down on you?? Hey! I'm soon gonna be your coworker, are
you gonna look down on me??" Sugi winked and nudged at Ryu.
Ryu smiled.
It was nearly 5am. Sugi and Ryu finally got back from Extasy and Ryu was
now sound asleep. Sugi went to the corner of the room, took down his
necklace and started whispering to the little full moon shaped gadget
attached to it.
" Hello!Hello!This is Sugi, the first guard.."
"Oh FINALLY you've come in!!" Queen Shinya's squeaky voice came down right from the moon.
" Shhhh.." Sugi looked back to make sure Ryu wasn't awakened by Shinya's scream.
" What "shhhh"??" Queen Shinya complained," That was very rude of you first guard! What have you been doing?? I remember I've told you to contact me
right after you got to earth safely!!!"
"Shhh..." Sugi felt really tired, he should have waited until Ryu was not
around.
"Oh stop telling me to "shhhhh"!!! Where are you now??? In the cemetery??
Afraid to wake up the dead?? Tell me everything that happened so far!!!"
"Oh..I've met the target of this mission, he's a young, poor boy.I live in
his place now and I would be the guar.. guard of the..um..restaurant that
he works for from tomorrow night onwards"
" What???? You the first guard of Luna (hey I forgot what's the name of
their nation??) is going to be the guard of a restaurant on earth???" Queen
Shinya obviously could not believe his ears," Wait.. what kind of restaurant
would need a guard?"
"Um.. it's a earth thing!! Your Majesty have become a little.. outdated with
info about the earth.. they now have guards for most restaurants la!!" Sugi
lied to Queen Shinya for the first time.. well not really, he was forced by
Princess Ino to cover up things for him many times..
"Rea..lly? But why is this necessary?" Queen Shinya wasn't convinced.
"Oh come on!! Princess Ino must have done similar things before!! Do your
Majesty think that we can now just decend from the sky like an angel, tell
a human to believe that we are from the moon and we would grant them a
wish?? They would think we are psychos escaped from a mental hospital!! I
need to become friend to the person I wanna help first!!"
"Since when have you become such an expert?? And where have you picked up
this rude attitude from?? Ah.. wait a minute.. are you still unhappy that we
sent you to earth??!!"
"NO!! It's perfectly alright!! Really, I don't mind at all.." Sugi was afraid that they would cancel his mission then he would have to fareware Ryu.
"Really..?Fine, I believe you. Oh but Sugi, listen carefully!"
Queen Shinya
suddenly lowered his voice and sounded really sober," Our spies in "Dark
Side" have detected something really unusual.."
"And that is..?" The name "Dark Side" made Sugi instantaneously nervous.
"There has been no roars, no shouts from that devil prince Atushi from the
dance room in the Dark Palace for at least 3 days!!!"
"..... so what?" Sugi wasn't impressed.
" You DUMMY!! That means Atushi is not in the Dark Side now!!We're even
worried that he might be on earth!!"
"what??!!" Now Sugi was scared! The whole universe (well.. not really)
knows that Prince Atsushi has got the weirdest,evilest, scariest personality
and Sugi could swear it wasn't just him, many residents of Luna think this
weird prince has some unexplainable strong interest in him!!
As for the
nature of interest Sugi has no idea ( he guessed maybe he looked like some
sort of food in Dark Side), but he certainly knew it's not a good thing,
especially when Dark Side has always been an enemy to Luna!!
" Don't be too worried though.. to ensure your safety, we've already sent
you a helper.."
" Who?" Sugi asked eagerly.
" Ryuji"
"That RABBIT?????????!!!!" Sugi completely forgot to lower his voice.
