Our brave adventures continue to the Kingdom of Healing Waters, where water can cure. They arrived there at about night time and ate a very, very full dinner and just fell asleep on their beds...
The next morning ..
"Yawn! That was a good nights sleep! Wonder what's for breakfast." Lina jumps out of her bed and goes to the toilet to brush her teeth. Lina walks sleepily to the toilet and sees Amelia, Zel, Firia, Xel and Shimergirl brushing their teeth.
"What took you so long Lina-chan?" said Xel with a toothy grin.
"Don't Lina-chan me! I am too tired to kill you. Where's Gourry?"
"What else would he be doing? Sleeping his head off like a pig!! I guess Xel just placed a spell on him to keep him asleep while he tries to win Lina's heart, that smelly raw rubbish!"
Lina just turn to her and say: "Just shut up."
"Don't say that Lina, it is true anyways.. except for the part about putting a spell on Gourry, now why didn't I think of that? I could even put it on Zel too." said Xel.
"Don't even thing of it dumbo priest, I won't let you." Zel mumbled under his voice.
"YES! That is right! In the law of justice, I command you, Xelloss, to stop being evil! For justice does not allow all of this evil nonsense! If you don't listen to me, I will your weakness to attack you!!"
"Err.. you mean.. telling me how lovely life is? Oh my, I just hate that, well, I got to go, bye!!" and in a purple plus dark puff of smoke, Xel disappeared.
"Are you all always like that? What wrong with being a mazuko? I am one third mazuko." Said Shimergirl who was sweatdroping while watching the gang arguing with each other.
"No, they are always like that, nothing is really wrong about being mazoku, I am a little bit myself anyways. It is just that Xel is just a very smelly and tricky mazuko priest., and he happens to be my worst enemy right next to Rezo." Zel said, smirking at the name of Rezo.
"Oh. Thanx."
And after everyone ate a full breakfast, they all(except for Xel )went off to the well, where the holy water was stored. They asked the people around them directions to the well and at last, they found. The well was heavily guarded by soldiers holding swords and wearing heavy looking armor. The well itself was made of white and black marble. Sliver looking water poured out of a hole like a waterfall. "Wow... look at that, it is much better then the holy water in our kingdom." Amelia said, staring at the well in amazment.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" suddenly, a guard walked over to the group and asked.
"Oh not much actually." said Gourry "We just want to take the water crystal from the well."
"GOURRY!!!" Everyone shouted. Five more guards surrounded them and took them to jail.
BANG
"Great, because of Gourry's smart talk we get stuck here. All chances of getting the crystal is gone.. and I was hopping it could be a cure.." said Zel grumbling in his cell.
"Lets just break out, I will dragon slave this place, then, Shimergirl will.."
"NOO!!!! You can't !! It is against the law of justice!!! You have to have a lawful judgement before breaking out!!" said Amelia( jumping up and down and banging her head on the ceiling...ouch!!) everyone sweatdrops
Zel just stands up and says: "I don't care. We HAVE to get out of here. DILL BRANDO!!!!!!" And as you readers know.. boom bang, ouch, hey!!..bing..boooommmmm..
Zel: "There! Lets go."
Everyone stares in amazement and says: "Wow.." and they follow good old Zel of out the jail.
They fly silently through the air and after a few minutes, they arrive at the fountain. Only a few guards were guarding the holy water. Firia gives them a look and says: "I will just cast a sleeping spell on them." And after chanting a string of magical words, one by one, the guards fall to the ground and sleep soundly. The group creep closer to the fountain and admire it.
Suddenly, Xelloss appears out of nowhere(^-^**) and looks around: "I see that all of you have escaped(dud). Nice fountain. How are you going to obtain the water crystal?"
Lina scratches her head and says: "Yeah, that is what I wanted to ask..how?"
"I don't think you will like the answer..." says Shimergirl. Shimergirl steps forward to the holy fountain, kneels down and prays. Her body suddenly glows with gold light, too bright for eyes. When the glow goes down, she stands up and says: "Here he comes."
"What comes?" asked Gourry, who as usual doesn't really understand what is going on. A sudden growl is heard, and a blue, large..etc beast rises from the fountain.
"HA!! This is my prey! FIREBALL!!" A gleaming fireball shoots towards the beast, but somehow, an invisible shield blocks the fireball. Dill Brando!!! But that only scratches the beast. The beast roars and walks one step, attempting to throw a tree nearby to the group, but Amelia shoots a freeze arrow at the beast knowing it won't work but giving it a try, but surpassingly, it freezes the beast.
"What? It actually works? Light come forth" Gourry jumps into the air and slices the beast into halves like a cake.
"You guys didn't give me a chance to say anything, everything works against its element."
"Oh.." Shimergirl walks forward and places her hands into the holy water. A dim but beautiful blow comes from the water and out comes a blue crystal, shimmering with power, and the crystal disappears into her own one.
"Now I can use the holy water to cure me." Said Zel happily, but when he gets to the fountain, the holy water becomes no more than swamp. "It is the power of the crystal which kept is holy. Now, with out he crystal, I am afraid it is no use."
"Oh no.."
"Wow.. didn't know the treasures of the Shimer People could be so powerful. Mind lending it to me??" says Xelloss in wonder.
"NO YOU DON"T!!!!! YOU RAW GUARBAGE!! YOU THINK THAT YOUR SWEET TALK CAN GET SHIMERGIRL TO GIVE THE CRYSTAL TO YOU? FAT CHANCE!!!"(everyone can expect who that comment came from.)
"Only raw garbage call other raw garbage."
"WHAT???YOU.....YOU RAW GRABAGE!!HOW.................." You know the rest.
