Prologue: Auntie Sofa
Rating: T
Disclaimer: I don't own SO3 or any of its characters, and I don't make money from this story.
Pairings: AlbelxFayt and CliffxFayt (love triangle..? lol)
Genre: Romance, Humor (sort of, on both accounts)
Warnings: OOC, character bashing (probably… not sure), shounen-ai.
A/N: I doubt this first chapter is very funny, and I'm not even sure if the next few chapters will be any better; I guess this won't be an extremely funny story, but it's a good category for it. This story isn't going to have anything to do with the movie, 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' (don't own), however, I did get the idea while I was humming a song from the movie. That's all.

Fayt and the Chocolate Factory
Prologue: Auntie Sofa

"Mom! Mom!" stubby little fingers tugged persistently at Maria's skirt followed immediately by her chanted title. Slowly she looked down at the child with a crop of blue hair framing a face with bright green eyes and pouting lips.

"What is it, Fayt?" She asked in her ever patient voice; one would think it was acquired after years of mothering, though it was in Maria's nature to be calm and composed.

"Mom, how is chocolate made?" None would see it, but Maria faltered as she looked at her child; that was something she didn't know, but if she said so Fayt would pester her until she did find out.

"Mommy's busy right now; but, I bet if you ask nicely, your Aunt Sophia will take you to a chocolate factory to find out."

The young child's eyes lit up excitedly and he turned to sprint to the other end of the house, "Auntie Sofa! Auntie Sofa!"

Maria chuckled and turned back to her work, no sooner had she picked up her pen and arranged her papers did she hear furious stomping down the hall toward her.

"Maria, why do you always have to pawn your kid off on me?" Maria smirked in response; Sophia's lack of a little human attachment proved that she had already sent Fayt to change clothes for the trip.

She shrugged and looked back at her work, "Well, Auntie Sofa never seems busy; I thought you liked spending time with Fayt?"

Sophia huffed and glared at her sister, "You know I hate that name!" The brunette let out a calming breath and continued, "Of course I love Fayt; I just think you should take your own kid out once in a while."

"I do; but the thing is, Sophia, I'm the one with the job, you're the one with the time; someone has to care for little Fayt while someone else has to work. When you get a job like mine we can switch, but until then--"

"Auntie Sofa, I'm ready!" a childish voice sang from down the hall, and moments later Fayt bounced happily into the room.

Sophia turned and smiled at her nephew, "Okay, Fayt, to the car." Fayt nodded happily, sprinted to his mom for a quick hug, and raced to the front door to put his shoes on.

"No running in the house!" Maria called after him.

Sophia turned slightly to head after Fayt, but seemed to think better of it. She cast her gaze upon her sister and frowned at her, "Next time you want to send Fayt off somewhere find someone else to do it." Sophia spun on her heel and followed Fayt to the door.

"Chocolate! Hurry Auntie Sofa, the chocolate!" Fayt bounced happily in the parking lot on his way to the tall building that said, if Fayt could read, 'Lasbard Chocolate Factory'. The letters were just the right shade of brown that Fayt stopped in the middle of the road to call back once more to his aunt.

"Auntie Sofa, can you buy me a giant chocolate letter? I wanna eat it!"

Sophia blushed and didn't answer; maybe, this way, no one would know that she was the one affectionately named after furniture. However her silence only prompted an increase in volume, "Auntie Sofa, I want a chocolate letter!"

"Fayt, will you--" Sophia screeched in shock when, right before her eyes, little Fayt vanished and was replaced by a large vehicle that squealed to a stop right where the little boy once stood.

"Oh my God!" Sophia cried out and rushed forward she dropped to her knees to look frantically for the little boy she had failed to protect.

"Fayt? Fayt! Oh God, Fayt!" Sophia repeated as she searched wildly for the child.

"You do realize that you're under a vehicle that could move at any second, don't you?" Sophia ignored the calm voice and continued look for her nephew.

"Auntie Sofa, you got yourself all dirty!" Sophia paused at the childish giggle and shot up instantly.

"Fay--!" Sophia bit back a curse and covered her injured head; she should really watch what she was doing. Carefully, this time, she crawled out from under the van and looked up to where the giggling originated.

Her young nephew sat safely in the arms of a red-headed woman; while Fayt seemed oblivious to the danger he had been in, the other adult was livid. "You might want to actually watch your child, hmm? I won't be there next time to save him." Fayt was set on his feet and two sets of green eyes were focused on the brunette.

"Auntie Sofa, where's my chocolate?" Fayt whined and stomped his little foot. Sophia grabbed his hand quickly before he could run off.

"Uhm, thank you for--"

"Just don't let it happen again, that's thanks enough."

"Right..." Sophia would have said more, but she was distracted by both the tugging of her hand and the worried driver who had nearly killed little Fayt.

"Don't worry about it." She told him, "It was my fault too; let's both be more careful in the future." With that behind her, Sophia let Fayt drag her to the Chocolate Factory.

A/N: Eh, this first chapter wasn't very funny… and certainly not shounen-ai… I am shamed. It's also very short, but I think all chapters will be short. I'm sure the next chapter is better; I think, after more fun with Sophia, Fayt will get to meet Cliff. Wow! My story actually has a plan!

I'll tell you a little about what I've done to these poor characters… if you want to know.

Fayt: He's a cute little six-year old (I think, I keep changing it…); right now, in this chapter, Fayt's a little brat… but he's stuck with adults… XP

Maria: She gets to be a wealthy business woman, lucky her; but she got screwed over when she found out Fayt's father was only in it for the money. XD She dumped his ass.

Sophia: She lives with her older sister, Maria, because she got fired from (or quit) her last job; so she gets to spend everyday looking after cute little Fayt. Unfortunately for her, when she was trying to get Fayt to say her name right (when he was really little, of course), he started calling her 'Auntie Sofa'; it drives her nuts.

Nel: There's not much to say, I don't know if I'll have her in any future chapters, right now it's not looking good; but I like Nel so not even I know.

Also, the only children are Fayt, Cliff, and Albel… so far; we'll see what else happens…
