Chapter 6: Surprise

Two hours before the storm. Downtown Unisberg, Northfront.

"Yet another glorious day to bask in the sun, Umu Umu!"

"Haha, you are mistaken Roman, the warmth you feel is all my radiance."

"Hmph, brilliance this, radiant that, it's all you know because my brightness has blinded you! It's just the natural laws of the universe Umu!"

"Foolish, the only natural law, is that I the Pharaoh and King of Kings stand above all, if by blinded you must mean I've looked past your pitiful state."

Ozymandias and Nero walk ahead of the group.

"Heracles, can I walk now?" Shou asks.

"Gruhn," Heracles cradles Shou in his arms further.

"Awwh, he just wants to make sure you're safe, if I were him I'd charge service fees," Caster of Midrash keeps up a steady pace alongside Heracles and Shou.

"I don't know what would make him feel this way, no one in their right mind would attack me when everyone is here," Shou says as he is just a shade away from bewilderment.

"Humor him just a bit longer, and I'll buy you something you'd like." Caster smiles.

"I don't need you to buy me anything, sigh we're almost there anyways."

Behind Caster, Heracles and Shou was Meltrylis and behind her Shi Haung Di. Melt minded their own business, taking in the sights of the city happenings and wondering what pleasurable misfortunes may befall those in passing. Shi Haung Di lagged behind considerably due to being engrossed in a book on prison regulations.

"This way everyone!" Nero picks up her pace, as she cuts into a parking lot. The others follow her lead, funneling through a gap in the shrubbery while Heracles steps over everything.

"Shou, do you think if only for a moment, Zebras feel ecstasy when being consumed by lions?"

Shou looks down to Melt unamused, "No, and we won't find out here either."

"Aw, snappy. Are you still mad about that picture?"

"I'd like it if you deleted it."

"If it brings you this much dissatisfaction, I think I won't for another week."

Caster peeks around Heracles, " Are you talking about the one of Heracles trying to feed Shou or the one when he passed out from Nero's thighs?"

"Noooooooooo, quit playing guys... hold on, you took pictures of me passing out?!"

"Look how emotive you've gotten, you're lucky that I'm spoiling you with so much attention. The Berserker may get jealous." Melt makes a sly face.

"Groooooar!"

Melt and Caster take two steps away from Heracles, Ozymandias looks behind him as does Nero. Shi Haung Di looks up from his book.

"Look now you've made Heracles feel some type of way... actually, Heracles can you put me down, I have to talk to get our tickets."

Heracles puts Shou down in the middle of the parking lot. Today was a special day for Master Shou and his servants. By Nero's request, everyone was going to the zoo! With the tickets bought, Shou and his servants entered the zoo full of zeal. It only took ten minutes after everyone ate lunch by the gift shop to split off into their own ways.

"Hahaha, this Orangutan was it? It has a resemblance to that of Gilgamesh!" Ozymandias studies the primate with much awe.

Melt has gone her own way to watch the penguins go about their business. One of the penguins named Blueberry caught her interest as it hopped around in place while the others were busy standing elsewhere and flapping their flippers to the passing observers.
