My Little Brother

Chapter 3

Forgot to mention this in the other chapters, but Dungeons do not exist in this world. Sinbad just happens to have some powers of lighting because (a little spoiler for this story but who cares) he was struck by lighting during the storm. Jafar doesn't have powers, but still have his assassin abilities because I think if he lost them then he just isn't Jafar, right?

"Good morning!" Sinbad called to the men standing near a big cart. They all turned to his direction, smiling and waving at him. Sinbad looked down at Jafar, who was clinging to his hand, and gave a reassuring smile to him. "Told ya, they're nice." Jafar pouted, moving behind Sinbad's legs, but never letting go of his hand, instead, his grip tightening.

"Good morning, Umm... Sinbad?" One of the men asked as they got closer to the cart. Sinbad nodded.

"That's me!" The man let out a breath of relief.

"Oh thank Solomon! Yamuraiha kept on thinking we were going in the wrong direction!" Sinbad tilted his head a little to the side.

"Yam-urai-ha?" There didn't seem to be any woman around, just males. The guy grinned, chuckling.

"Yeah, the old witch. She's a real troublemaker in our group, so we left her on the side of the road to walk here. We'll meet up with her when we head back." Suddenly the cart started to move, someone popping their head out.

"You're spreading false rumors about me again, Sharrkan!" Yamuraiha yelled. She hit Sharrkan over the head with a wand. (The reason why I'm not putting their appearances is because you all know what they look like) After the two were done arguing, Yamuraiha turned her head towards Sinbad, smiling a nice, genuine, smile. "Don't mind Sharrkan over here, he's the true troublemaker over here, along with Pisti." As if hearing her name being called, another person jumped out of the cart. She looked like a child.

"Hey! That's not cool at all Yam!" Pisti cried. Sinbad heard a slight chuckle behind him, making him look back at Jafar, who was hiding his snickering.

"Quite the small one you got there." Yamuraiha commented, looking at Jafar, who hid further behind Sinbad's legs. "He yours?" She asked. Sinbad, immediately realizing what she meant, shook his head frantically.

"Nonononononono! He's not my kid, he's my little brother!" He explained. Yamuraiha, noticing her mistake, shook her head.

"Oh my! I'm so sorry!" Sinbad chuckled, trying to get her to look at him.

"Theres no offense taken! There's no need to apologize!" Once Yamuraiha was calmed down, Sinbad looked at Jafar, moving so that he had to show himself. Jafar tried to get behind Sinbad again, trying to hide. Sinbad just grabbed his hand and made him stand in front of him. "Introduce yourself." Sinbad instructed.

"H-hi... I'm Jafar..." (just so you know, even though Sinbad and Jafar are younger, I didn't change anyone else's ages from the sequel (Magi: The Labyrinth Of Magic)) Pisti suddenly appeared in front of him, giving her hand out towards him.

"Hi Jafar, I'm Pisti! Do you like animals!?" Jafar immediately backed up at little, hiding his face in Sinbad's leg. Pisti understood, backing off. Sinbad pat Jafar's head, chuckling at his behavior.

"Sorry about him. He's been through a lot these past few years and those events have made him pretty shy." Yamuraiha nodded, taking a completely different approach to Jafar. She knelt down to his level, slowly reaching her hand out gently to him.

"Hello Jafar. I'm Yamuraiha, but you can call me Yam. Your brother needs to do some stuff with Spartos, Masur and Hinahoho, do you mind coming with me?" Every word was slow but quick and calm. Yamuraiha brought gentleness in her voice, leading to Jafar giving Sinbad a glance and Sinbad gave a nod of approval to him, letting him take Yamuraiha's hand. The pair then walked off to where Pisti and Sharrkan were.
