《Shining Duos》Family
Advertisement
Walking into their mansion, it was extravagant and luxurious with all kinds of high-class furniture and paintings all around the place. There was a seemingly endless staircase too that one can get lost in also.
"Hmm, seems like everyone else is busy today it's empty in here," Kazami remarked while taking a look around.
They were currently on the base floor of the mansion, and this floor held several different rooms, all looking special and unique in their way.
Deciding on a direction, they walked across in the middle room where it was a large living room filled with many exotic items and ancient scrolls and even a flat-screen T.V.
"For sure, it's empty, that annoying little brat would've been lazing around watching that weird machine again, or auntie Lia would be in those scrolls now." Sighing, Kuzumi went and sat down on a black beautiful large couch that was enough to fit ten people.
Taking a seat right next to Kuzumi, Kazami and Lun Yuo sat side by side. Feeling something under his but Kazami slightly sat up and pulled out a remote.
"Might as well watch some of this Earth machine; I think they called it a T.V., right? At least that what your parents told us." Getting comfortable, Lun Yuo started to lean on Kazami's shoulder.
The second he wanted to turn on the T.V though, they felt a sudden cold touch on their backs. This touch sent a feeling of dread in all three of them, and cold sweat started to form on all of them and then right in their ears they heard it;
"BOO!"
"AHHHHH!"
'Thud!'
Frighten by the sudden and piercing loud noise, all three of them fell flat on their faces.
"H.A.! Well, well, well! What do we have here three frighten little lambs." The one who pranks the trio was an alluring beauty. Standing at an average height of 5'5, she had bewitching bright pink hair going down towards her elbows, an angelic face with a small Divine Marking etched on in the middle of her forehead similar to the twins.

She had a skinny and lean gracious body wearing a stunning salmon color bridesmaid dress. A pure beauty that lightens up anyone's heart was currently gloating to the trio who had just gotten back up and was mildly annoyed.
"Always with the prank auntie Lu, don't you have anything else better to do?" Kazami groaned, already annoyed with having to deal with her practical jokes.
"And it's always lame ones that just involve scaring the daylight out of us!" Kuzumi similarly complained while dusting herself off.
Leaning over the couch, she got in three faces;
"Now now, don't be like that, and how could I miss my most dazzling children good news! Wouldn't you agree, Catty and Audy?!"
"I couldn't agree more, Lucy. Oh, and nice joke Lu those three should've seen it come coming."
"Yes, one must always be prepared for anything even if it's a joke."
"Father?!"
"Mother?!"
"Mr. and Ms. Star?!
The trio shouted and turned around to a marvelous duo that was walking with a smile on their faces.
The first one that talked was a dashingly handsome man bearing a resemblance to Kazami. Platinum silver hair flowed neatly down to his neck, attracting everyone who would ever gaze upon it. He also had a lovely silver eye color to match his hair and a tall height standing at 6'3.
He had an athletic, lean, muscular body that can intimidate anyone who opposes him. Wearing a black blazer, plain white shirt, black slacks, and dress shoes, he is one would describe the ideal man look.
Next to him was a ravishing woman that can steal the soul of any person. Standing at 5'7, she dawned beautiful fetching dark black hair that flowed beautifully downed to her waist. Her body was enticing to all who would look at it with wide curvy hips and a large bust to boot.

She wears a cute white sleeve belted blouse and everyday blue jeans that served to enhance her beauty in every way further.
Lucy got up from behind the couch and went over to the man she called "Catty" wrapped her arms around him and gave him a kiss filled with love.
"I've been bored the entire day, Catty dear! Next time you must finish up those boring Elders meeting faster, they're all just old relics."
The man lifted her playfully and joked around with her saying;"Trust me if I could, I would, but didn't I tell you shouldn't be lazing around everywhere like a sloth."
Feeling like she was about to get reprimanded, Lucy sneakily got out of the man gripped and latched on the woman standing next to them wearing a slight grin.
"Shouldn't you be more lenient with your cute wives, huh! I don't even laze around that much anyways like a six hours rest isn't that bad right Audy!"
Shaking her head the woman spoke;
"Eh, Cathal has a point Lucy though I would also prefer to laze around then hear old people babble on about nothing."
Sighing a bit, Cathal looked over to the young trio who was now back on the couch observing him and his wives as if they were a show.
"We'll discuss that later, but for now seems like you three got some good results about that Youth Mind Games, I presume?"
The three adults strolled over to the couch and sat on the right of them.
"Ah, yes! I won the whole competition, and not only that, all three of us awaken our divine abilities!" Kazami told them with pride.
"REALLY?!" Now, what Kazami told caught the three adults off guard.

Lone: The Wanderer [Rewrite]
Nine-to-five. The daily grind. Life. Painful years of school. Working as a slave for some undeserving corporate big-wig. The monotonous life of unemployment. We all experience this in one way or another, and we can all conclude one thing: it's dull. Such a fact rings true even for the fabled Lone Immortus, a powerful nine-tailed Golden Foxkin. However, what would you do if your monotony was suddenly ground to a halt and you were thrown out of your comfort zone along with a young girl forgotten by time? Perhaps you might have done things differently, been more organised, immediately died, gained control of the world in a matter of days, but this is Lone's tale, not yours. Watching two insecure people struggle to survive and find their place in an unfamiliar land just might be enjoyable to witness. Who knows? One thing's for certain: it won't be an easy path for them to tread, and what could possibly be more entertaining than watching people endure hardships and grow? I know of at least eight gods that would answer with, 'Absolutely nothing.' I wonder, after seeing this journey from start to finish, how would you answer?
