A Couple of Shy mutes, A Gwain Saga fanfiction (Geo x Ami,)

part 7 Revelation

Geo looked at Lanney as she stared straight down the road, expressionless, lost in thought. Putting his hand on her shoulder, he smiled at her. Lanney, not saying a word, looked over to Geo, tears running down her face. "I'm Ok, Geo" She reassures her friend, her empty words accompanied by an even faker smile

In the back of his mind. Geo thanked fate for giving him something to cover his eyes with. As much as he trusted Lanney with his emotions, he felt like the only way to keep the team somewhat functional was for someone to keep their cool, no matter how truly fake their confidence was.

Down the way they were going, Deva stood with her hands in a shouting position on her face. "HEY! YOU GUYS FIND ANYTHING?" she shouts from down the path.

"Y-YEAH!" Lanney responds, cupping her hands over her mouth like Deva. "MASTER GEO AND I FOUND WHAT WE THINK IS A SPEAKER!" she continued.

"GOOD! WE FOUND ONE OF THE- Y'KNOW WHAT? IT'S BETTER IF YOU SEE IT!" Deva then gave a "come here" motion with her arms.

A FEW MINUTES LATER...

Franz's head felt like it was splitting in two. Opening his eyes, a blinding light intruded on his ability to see.

When his eyes finally adjusted to the overload of light into his purple retinas, the only thing he could do was say one thing, and one thing only...

"....fuck"

The friends of Gwain's daughter stand in front of him, with various degrees of anger, sadness, and, for one of them... what seemed to be fear.

He moved his arms from side to side, attempting to judge if he had any chance of escaping. No such luck, it seems the blue-haired one had frozen his entire body from the neck down in a big ice cube.

"You know what we want..." the purple-hatted one spoke, his voice sharp with controlled anger, his hat covering his eyes.

"What? Another diaper for the living muffin over there?" Franz quipped.

"I-ITS A LEOTARD!" the brown-haired one corrected, her words dripping with frustration.

Franz chuckled at her expense, his grin reaching both sides of his face, but disappearing when the ice began to crush his body. "If we wanted your dumbass humor, we would've asked for it." the short, cyan one mentioned.

"Heh, I'm sure you're a joy in the sheets. Isn't she?" Franz jabbed again, looking over to Savien, who was only to be stopped by Lanney putting a hand on the rifle.

"ALRIGHT FUCKO-" Deva formed her hands into ice gauntlets and reared back to sock the shit out of him. But was interrupted by Marlow.

"Calm down, he's trying to get us distracted from the reason we have him here," Marlow commented to her enraged companion.

"So.." Taking a small deep breath to regain his signature cool personality

"What did you do with Ami?"

"Who?" The interrogated Magic-user asked, a shit-eating grin plastered across his face.

"Oh y'know... A girl about.." Savien used his hands to portray Ami's height.

"Yea high, pink-haired, the literal heir to the throne?"

"Nope, no idea." the interrogated answered calmly, his eyes unfazed from the questioning. "Ok... " Marlow sighed, setting down a cup of coffee she was holding. "If you tell us where Ami is, I can guarantee your safety. And we can pretend this never happened, but you're going to have to cooperate." her voice calmly informed the interrogee.
