Doesn't everybody love the circus?
Filia yawned as they walked through another small town. "Are we close to Saillune or what?" she asked. Xellos nodded his head.
"Not, too long now. Just a day or two." He stated. Martina looked at the buildings were some of them had been blown up. She growled.
"The mark of Lina Inverse. When I get my hands on her........"Martina growled. While Zangalus patted her head.
"Calm down. Calm down." He sighed. Xellos and Filia both looked at each other. Both of them had considered the thought of following Lina's example and blowing Martina and Zangalus up, steal their money and run like hell. But Zangalus begged them not to. Martina frowned.
"Still Lina will pay." She hissed. Filia took out her book and started to read how to steal someone's voice and thought about testing it on Martina. Xellos glanced over to her and knew what she would do.
"No, magic. Only for emergencies." He said as a few people in swimsuits quickly ran passed them. "Hey, what are they in the hurry about?' he questioned. Filia shrugged as she watched about 10 more people in swimsuits pass them. Zangalus placed a hand on his chin and thought. His face brightened.
"Oh, yeah. This is the town were the hold the big annual surf contest. Maybe we should join." He exclaimed. Xellos snorted.
"We don't have time for a measly surf contest." He said. Zangalus shrugged.
"Well first prize is a million gold." He said as he and Xellos continued to walk down the street. Martina and Filia stopped in their tracks.
"A million GOLD!!" they yelled in unison grabbing Zangalus by the cuffs of his shirt. He nodded his head slowly while Xellos only sighed.
"If we win that money. We don't have to but only food and supplies. We can buy dresses and souvenirs from all the towns we got to now." Martina chirped. Filia smiled and took out her mace.
"Well my mace is getting a little dull and it's not as shiny as it used to be." She exclaimed. Xellos sweatdropped and rubbed his jaw. "That does it, where going to that surf contest and were going to win that prize money!" Filia yelled grabbing Xellos and dragging him to the beach. Martina and Zangalus followed after them.
~***~
Filia and Martina went up to the judge. He was a tanned blonde man with big muscles. "So are we and those two over there aloud to enter the surf contest?" Martina asked pointing to the sulking Xellos and Zangalus.
"Why does this always happen to us?" Zangalus questioned while Xellos only shrugged. The man cleared his throat and took Filia's and Martina's hands. Making Xellos and Zangalus narrow their eyes.
"Well you two can definitely enter. But no men allowed. This is strictly a female contest." He stated grinning at them. Filia nodded her head.
"O.k., we'll enter and my two other girlfriends Xellia and Zanya." Filia smiled as she wrote their names down. Zangalus and Xellos looked at each other and started to tip toe away until Martina caught them.
"You two aren't going anywhere." She hissed. The man pointed to the changing booths that were located to the right of them.
"The changing booths are over there and if you don't have a swimsuit or surf board we'll be happy enough to give you one." He smiled still holding Filia's hand. Xellos walked over to him and bashed his staff on his head, making the guy fall to ground unconscious with a huge lump on his head.
"Thanks." Xelloss aid giving the guy a cheshire grin and grabbed Filia's arm. "Shall we go?" he asked.
~***~
Filia smiled as she looked at her two-piece orange swimsuit. It portrayed her quite nicely and she chose a surfboard with a sea serpent designed all over it. Martina came over to her.
"How do you like my outfit, Filia?' she asked turning around. Martina was in a red bikini holding a red surfboard with her Zolmagustar relics all over it.
"Very nice. Interesting surfboard." She added. Filia looked around for Xellos and Zangalus. She frowned. "Hey, Xellia. Zanya, come out why don't ya!" the dragon yelled. Martina heard a lot of grumbling before the two emerged. Filia broke out in laughter. While Martina turned around not looking upon the two. "You look nice." Filia said.
"Of course. I'm pretteier than a big mouth like you, Fi-chan." Xellos said while Filia growled. He was dressed in a purple two-piece swimsuit. Don't ask how he made himself look so feminine with no trace of male attributes. Zangalus on the other hand was dressed in a black one-piece swimsuit and instead of his hat was a large bow.
"Can we just get this over with?" He grumbled as they started to walk to the contestants waiting area.
~***~
The announcer took a deep breath as the crowd cheered. "Now, for the event we've been waiting for. The annual surf contest. We have been blessed with a beautiful group of young ladies, some we've seen from last year and some new comers. Give them a hand ladies and gentlemen." He yelled. "Now for the rules, if you fall off your surfboard you're disqualified and whoever reaches back here first wins the contest. Magic is prohibited but no killing." He yelled. "Let the contest begin!" he yelled.
"Magic?" Martina asked as she raced to the water with the other participants. There was a cute shorthaired girl quickly swimming to the front.
"Prepare to loose. I'm the former champion and no way any of you are gonna win!" she yelled almost making Filia and Xellos capsize. Filia frowned as she paddled on her board.
"What a rude girl, I really hope we beat her." Filia hissed, Xellos nodding his head with her. "There's the wave." Filia said as she and the others started to stand up wobbly on their boards.
"It's huge." Zangalus said. The announcer cheered as they saw the entire group of woman safely get on top of the wave.
"It looks like all the woman have managed to gain access on the wave but for how long!" he yelled. The shorthaired girl raised her hands.
"Lightning!" she shouted as she blasted a huge lightning bolt on a couple of people. Filia quickly adjusted her angle.
"I can't believe that girl." Filia shouted trying to be heard of the screams of the girls who fell. Filia wanted to shoot back but a stern look from Xellos told her not too. The girl kept that up until only her Filia, Xellos, Martina and Zangalus were left. The audience applauded.
"It looks like a reigning champ and 4 newcomers are the only one's left who will....Hey what's that. A giant squid!" The announcer yelled as a giant squid rose from the waters and made a giant wave of its own knocking the contestants off their boards. Filia caught Zangalus and Xellos caught Martina and they floated up in the air.
"What is that?" Martina shouted as the squid's tentacles reached for her and Xellos.
"Looks like a giant squid ...Fi-chan watch it!" he shouted as the squid squirted out ink. Filia dodged it and its attack went straight to the people on the sandy beach, who quickly ran away screaming. Filia narrowed her eyes.
"I've had enough of this." Filia shouted approaching the squid, still clutching Zangalus.
"What are you doing?" Zangalus asked as the squid's tentacles reached towards him. Filia looked down at him.
"Sorry." She whispered as she threw him at the squid. Filia raised her hands electricity forming around her.
"Lightning Strike!" she yelled her attack going straight down to the squid and Zangalus shocking them both onto they sank into the sea. Filia smiled in triumph. "Yosha!" she yelled.
~***~
Filia scratched her head as she looked out to the sea. "I guess we don't win that million, do we?" she asked. Martina shook her head as she dabbed a wet towel against Zangalus' forehead. Filia stepped on the head of the still unconscious shorthaired girl and went over to Xellos who was looking out at the sea.
"That sea squid. A little odd it appeared so suddenly so close to the shore." Xellos muttered his amethyst eyes glaring at the sea. Filia shrugged and took out her mace and lightly bashed him on the head. "What was that for?!" he yelled. She smiled.
"Nothing, really. I just thought you needed to relax." She smiled. He raised an eyebrow and continued to look out at the sea.
"Dolphin, knows." He muttered to himself.
