The 5 Leaders of Darkness of Ruby Eye were gathered together in the living room of Dynast’s Castle at North Foothold…
“Look at the time…I think we’d better be heading back to our
places.” Xelas told the others.
“Heck, it’s only 8:30 in the evening! Let’s all have fun!”
Dolphin told them. “What else do you have in this place, Graushaila?” Fibrizo
asked.
“Something that we all enjoy…” Grauashaila replied with a
smile on his face, going to the bar and getting a bottle of red wine and 5 big
goblets.
The sight of it made Fibrizo’s eyes wide. “Hey! I’m not
allowed to drink!” Fibrizo told them.
“Then good! You can watch us get drunk!” Garv told him as he
got a goblet for himself.
“No way…I wouldn’t wanna see any of you getting wild.”
Fibrizo muttered.
“Fine, you may leave and butt-kiss our dear mother again
like you always do, saying, ‘oh, mom, my other siblings are drinking again!!!’”
Garv mimicked.
“I don’t get drunk coz I’m used to it…especially red wine!”
Xelas told them.
“Hey, let’s have a contest! The first one who gets drunk
gets to…um…uh…” Dolphin began to think.
“I know, the first one who gets drunk will be treated out by
the losers to a very posh restaurant in the human world!” Garv told them. “I
never knew you liked human food…” Graushaila said as he began to remove the
cork with his bare hands.
“Well, it’s just a matter of appreciation…” Garv said with
an annoyed look.
“Appreciation my ass! You never seemed to like any one of us
here!” Xelas told him with a mocking smile.
Fibrizo was looking at Graushaila, still trying to open the
bottle of red wine. “Do you need help there?” he asked with a weird smile.
“NO! I should be much too smart for this!” Graushaila
snapped as he tried to pull off the cork.
“Oh, for LON’s sake, use the corkscrew!!!” Xelas said,
standing up and going to the bar, getting the corkscrew and throwing it to
Graushaila. He caught it but he just
stared at it.
“What, don’t tell me you don’t know how to use it?” Xelas
asked with a mocking smile.
“I know how to use it but I never used corkscrews before
whenever I open my wine!” Graushaila snapped with an annoyed expression on his
face.
“Okay then, let me do the honors… and watch me do it if you
really don’t know how to use it.” Xelas told him as she grabbed the bottle and
the corkscrew. “I told you, I know how to use the corkscrew!” Graushaila told
her, standing up in protest.
“You’re over-reacting again, oneesan. It’s gonna prove that
you really don’t know how to use the corkscrew.” Dolphin pointed out with a
silly grin.
Graushaila flashed Dolphin a warning look. Dolphin chuckled.
They watched as Xelas began to remove the cork with the
corkscrew…but still, it wouldn’t come off!!!
Xelas was already exerting too much force in pulling the
corkscrew and was already losing her poise. “GODDAMMIT! IT WON’T EVEN BUDGE!”
she yelled angrily.
“That’s not a woman’s job! Lemme try that damned bottle! I’m
already craving for the taste of that red wine.” Garv said, grabbing the bottle
from Xelas and began to do the same.
“Haha! And you still can’t open it?” Xelas asked with a
mocking smile.
“Gimme that!” Dolphin grabbed the bottle from Garv and
removed the corkscrew.
“What are you gonna do?” Xelas asked with a look of wonder.
Dolphin stood up and threw the bottle to the floor. The 4
were shocked. “DOLPHIN, YOU INSANE FOOL! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!” Graushaila,
Xelas & Garv yelled in unison with panicky expressions.
Then, they were surprised at the bottle… it didn’t even
break.
Dolphin frowned. “Man! What kinda bottle is this?!” she said
with a surprised expression.
Xelas, Graushaila and Garv fell to the floor with horrid
looks on their faces.
Fibrizo scratched his head. “Hey, can drinking wine cause
too much worry like those 3?” he asked Dolphin. “Only when you’re weak.”
Dolphin told him, picking up the bottle from the floor and handing it to
Fibrizo. “You try it.” He told him. Fibrizo frowned and got a marble.
Xelas stood up. “Whatcha gonna do with the marble?” she
asked.
“I believe that everything has a spirit! Therefore, this
cork may have one, so I’ll just have to represent it in this marble and it will
die when I break it!” Fibrizo replied.
Graushaila & Garv sat up on the floor, hoping that
Fibrizo can finally open it.
Fibrizo broke the marble and THE CORK STILL WON’T POP OUT OF
THE BOTTLE!
“Damned bottle!” Garv cursed.
“I don’t like this situation that we’re in right now… what
kind of bottle is this?” Xelas asked, snatching the bottle from Fibrizo and she
began to read the label aloud: “Shinzoku Wine…”
All of them felt angered all of a sudden. “SHINZOKU?!” they
yelled in unison.
Graushaila snatched the wine from Xelas’ grasp. “Damn! How
did this get in here?!” he asked.
“I don’t know…where do you buy your wine anyway?” Garv
asked.
“Oh, shut up!” Graushaila snapped.
Xelas began to wipe her hands on Dolphin’s cape. “Ick… God
Wine…” she muttered. Dolphin pulled away from her. “Hey!” Dolphin snapped.
“Now what are we gonna do?” Garv asked.
“We can’t drink that! It might poison us!” Xelas said. “Thank
the cork. It didn’t pop out. You think it saved your lives?” Fibrizo asked with
a silly smile.
“Oh, pish posh, Fibby! That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever
heard!” Xelas snapped.
“Hey, come to think of it! The cork saved our lives!”
Dolphin said with a cheery expression.
“That’s ridiculous? What do you want us to do, hail the
cork?” Graushaila asked.
“Yeah!” Fibrizo and Dolphin said in unison with silly
smiles.
Xelas shook her head. “I’m outta here…” she told them before
teleporting.
“Me too…” Garv said, following after her.
“I’ll see you in the morning. Don’t forget to turn out the
lights in this living room…” Graushaila told Dolphin and Fibrizo before going
out the door.
Dolphin smiled and got the bottle again. “Oh well, so much
for this.”
Fibrizo giggled. “At least you guys won’t be drinking
anymore…well, for the moment anyway…” he said…
