A Wish For
You
by Shizukasama
Don't read Michael the Red Priest's "The Resurrection of MtRP" until you've read this story.
![]()
Narrator: The small island in the middle of the ocean was once a nice and peaceful place. Until a group of misfits got stranded on the island. Ever since then battles and chaos overtook the island, and it's now called Lodoss, the accursed Island...
Queen of Swords: WRONG SERIES! You pathetic excuse for a narrator!
Narrator: ...Oh! Sorry,
anyway the island is now called Gourrigan's Island, home of very powerful sorcerer,
magician, aliens, swordsman, dragonmaidens, monsters, and generally more misfits. The
normal day was fun and parties and people sleeping in. However, this morning, the peaceful
atmosphere was shattered by a certain female's shriek...
Lina: GOD DAMMIT, I'm sick of this, so SO sick of this!!! I want to get
off this Island NOW!
Gourrigan, Xelloss, and the rest of our male cast were peeking from a relatively safe distance, behind a BIG rock.
Rezo: So...It's THAT TIME
OF THE MONTH AGAIN...
Zelgadis: That's obvious. Since when does LINA INVERSE, the notorious
bandit killer, dragon spooker ever get that mad.
Xelloss: Well, I can think of a few...
Lina: I HEARD THAT...GUYS.
The male cast look up slowly, and blinked twice.
Xelloss: <Thinking to himself> How..How can she move that Fast!?
Lina smirked, and flexed her hand.
Lina: Soooo...what do you
have to say to explain yourself?.
Rezo: We have nothing to say about you petty underdeveloped
body...<Oh! I didn't said that out loud did I? > I mean...you are a wonderful person
that just happened to be the lowest scum that I have ever met before <DAMN!>
Lina's expression turned into a menacing glare.
Lina: WRONG ANSWER.
Gourrigan, after working with Lina for so long, immediately ran for cover, while the rest of the innocent souls was frozen in shock...However, they were defrost momentarily.
Lina: FIREBALL!!!
Five minutes later.
Gourrigan looked up from the bush, and saw the coast is clear, he inched back to the large pile of charred mass.
Gourrigan: Hey Guys are
you Ok?
Zelgadis: kuff! Kuff! Damn that girl, she use to be weak in THAT TIME OF
THE MONTH, now she is insanely strong.
Xelloss: I have to agree.
Rezo: Insanely powerful and insane is not a good mix.
Gourrigan: Hey Guys?
Rezo: What?
Xelloss: What?
Zelgadis: What?
Gourrigan: What is THAT TIME OF THE MONTH?
Rezo fainted, Xelloss sighed, and Zelgadis crushed a few rock by banging his head on the closest solid object.
Rezo, Xellos, Zel: YOU
DON'T KNOW?
Gourrigan: Nope!
The trio repeated the above actions again.
The grumpy young Lina Inverse, wondered into the hut.
Lina: Dathon, hey Dathon!
Dathon: Yes, Lina Inverse, do you mind NOT breaking the Pylons, psi is
very impor...
Lina: FORGET THOSE!!! Do you have anything, ANYTHING that can get us in
contact with the outside world?
Dathon: Nope!
Lina: Arrgh! You sure, no radio?
Dathon: Nope!
Lina: E-mail?
Dathon: Nope!
Lina: Telephone?
Dathon: Nope!
Lina: Teleporter?
Dathon: Nope! Had one, but Michael blew it up while testing the portable
photon cannon.
Lina: Arrgh!, you will all perish!!!
Dathon: I do have a cellphone!
Lina: Really?
Dathon: But its out of batteries.
Lina: Arrgh!!! Oh! Just give it to me!
Dathon: It will cost you.
Lina: What!
Dathon: Yep, one homemade Fruitcake.
Lina blinked twice
Lina: Okkkkkkkkk.
Dathon waited patiently while Lina ran outside, screams and explosions plus some sizzling of electric jolts can be heard. Lina emerged from the cloud of dust a few moments later. Dragging a twitching Xelloss behind her. She shove a tied up Xelloss into Dathon's hand, and grabbed the phone.
Lina: Here's your
fruitcake, all homemade and well done, Bye!
Dathon: But...but, Oh nevermind.
With a press of a button, he disappeared again. Leaving a tied up Xelloss lying there on the floor.
Gourrigan, Zel, Rezo were gathering around in a circle. Recalling what happened a few moment ago.
Flashback.
Gourrigan: Get ready guys,
she is coming out of the tent. Yep she is coming fast.
Rezo: Let us all assume the all time defensive formation.
Xelloss: Ha..ha what's that?
Zelgadis: Get ready. RUNNNNNNNN!
Xelloss: Wha. What!
As Xelloss tried to catch up with his "friends?" He accidentally trip over a body.
Xelloss: Waah!
And fell straight onto Filia.
Filia: YOU LITTLE, How dare you attack a innocent defenseless maiden, when she is trying to get a tan.
Filia reached for her mace, <somewhere in the swimsuit> and smiled
Xellos: Innocent?? Defenseless?? <Gulp> Guys HELP ME!!!
Filia's mace connected and send Xellos straight into some unfortunate tree. The tree held for a moment, then collapsed. Filia smiled again and walked away toward the hot spring.
Xellos is lying in a bush. Attempting to drive away the head ache.
Xellos: This is really not my day...
His surrounding sudden turn dark and cold, as a shadow loomed over him. Xellos turned, and screamed.
Lina: How Convenient.
End Flashback.
Gourrigan: I can still remember his valiant word as he was dragged away. "Fellow comrade do not weep, my sacrifice is nothing if it will spare you from the demonic Lina Inverse's Wraith. "
Rezo: Actually, as I
recalled he was screaming "Help guys get this crazy B***h off meeee, Ahh!, for the
love of all mazoku lord, Zel! Rezo! HELP ME!!!"
Gourrigan: Really? Too bad he didn't ask me.
Zel, Rezo: and you will come between him and Lina?
Gourrigan: Nope, I'll run even faster.
The three guys sat around a tree, and started talking about something else.
Lina Inverse was Mad, very VERY MAD. She had just trashed Xellos to get the cellphone and it won't work... but the process of beating up Xellos seems to be very stress relieving.
Lina: Oh! Forget this lousy piece of trash.
She threw the phone off a cliff.
Lina: Mono Volt!
Then she walked away.
The mono volt, hit the cell phone head on, creating a small electric spark. <Dial tone> as it fell to the bottom of the cliff, it's redial button was hit on impact.
Shizuka: Thank you for calling the Relief Deity Office, a representative will be with you shortly...
High in the heaven, Yggdrasil, the super-computer that crashes a lot that also have control over all human fate, footstep can be heard from the interior.
Shizuka: Why do I, Secretary to Kami-sama, have to go down to surface world for wish granting? Oh well, at least I get to get out of this place. Where is that place anyway? Not in map section B or Section C, how about map "in the middle of nowhere" ? Ha! I found it, island renamed Gourrigan's island. Looks like a nice place for a vacation. Maybe I should call Haki.
He picked up a phone, and dialed the number.
Voice: Welcome to the
Demon world. This is a recording for Demoness Category II class II Haki, please leave a
brief message.
Shizuka: Hey! Haki, this is Shizuka, come to Gourrigan's island when you
get the message, looking forward to see you again.
Shizuka: Now do this "Gourrigan's island" have a door around?
Yes they do!
Shizuka walked toward the nearest closed door, the door glowed as he walk through, teleporting him to Gourrigan's Island.
Filia had just came back from the nice, warm hot spring and was extremely relaxed.
Filia: Ahh! That was wonderful. Maybe I should get changed, the bathing suit starting to feel chilly.
Filia took off her bathing suit and was in the process of putting on her dress when the door behind her started to grow. A moment later, a young man stepped through the door.
Shizuka: Good afternoon. Ack!!!
They looked at each other, both seem to be frozen in time. After a few second, time resumed again.
Filia: Eeek!!! HENTAI!!!
Filia pull out her hyper-dimensional mace and smashed Shizuka with all her might. Shizuka was catapulted through the door in sonic speed.
Michael the red priest was having a nice stroll on the island. When a high pitch shriek of his beloved Filia grabbed his attention. He turned just in time to see a flaming thing fly toward him in unbelievable speed. Michael bearly have time to confirm the incoming spell.
Michael: Oh! My God, It's a fireball. VALIS WALL!!!
A field of light, forming a wall around the priest. Shizuka's body slammed into the magic barrier, and sagged.
Michael: Shizuka???
Shizuka: Mommy is that you?
Michael: No I am not your mom. Hey Shizuka! Wake up!
Shizuka: Hey Mike, what are you doing here? Hey, help me up will you?
Michael: Sure, I'm just wondering around. So do you enjoy flying around?
Shizuka: Not quite. I...I accidentally walked in on a girl.
Michael: Ohhh! Is that so... <Wait a minute>
Michael: Hey! Shizuka, What does she look like?
Shizuka: Long flowing hair, really nice figure, hit like a man, and have
a dragon tail...
Michael's eyes suddenly narrowed as the two pieces of the puzzle just clicked together.
Shizuka: ...She is cute and all, but looks pretty violent at times. Heh... Are you ok Mike?
Michael's grip on his staff tighten.
Shizuka: Anyway, if she is
married, I feel sorry for the idiot who married her. Hey! Mike? Stop glowing please!?
Michael: Mega Brand!!!.
Shizuka: Wahhhh!!!
When Shizuka come to, he is lying on the ground. Rezo, Gourrigan, Lina, Amelia, Michael, Filia <still holding the mace>, Queen of Swords, and Zelgadis. Surrounded him.
Shizuka: Ohh! I felt like I've been hit by a train.
Lina walked right up to him, grabbed him by the collar, and start shaking him while sending jolt of electricity through him.
Lina: How <Zap> long <Zap> are <Zap> you <Zap> going to lay there. <Zap><Zap><Zap>
Shizuka's God marking on his forehead glowed, and his tone send a chill through Lina.
Shizuka: Take your hand off me.
Michael's eye went wide as he recognized the tone. He stood there dumbfounded, not wanting to believe what's happening.
Michael: Berserker...
Lina was uncomfortable. The man in her hand is glowing a faint blue hue. She decided to drop him, and gave him a little surprise.
Lina: Daag Volt!
Michael: That's a BAD idea, Lina.
The very second Shizuka hits the ground he realized that the lighting bolt is moving toward him in high speed.
He smirked.
Lina was in shock, her Daag Volt, went straight into Shizuka's body.
Lina: Did I hit him?
Gourrigan: Yep!
Zelgadis: Yep!
Filia: The pervert is fried!
Rezo: But it went through him?
Martina: Hey! What just happened?
Zangulus: Another innocent soul is harmed by Lina Inverse.
Amelia: Are you sure you hit him, Miss. Lina?
Michael: That was too close of a range...
Lina: Of course I hit him!
Shizuka: NOT!
The gang looked up slowly. Shizuka stood 20 feet away, a deck of card in his hand.
Shizuka: You must be
mistaken, are you seeing things? I didn't move THAT fast.
Lina: Why you... How dare you mock me! FIREBALL!
Michael: The girl never learn...
The Fireball flew toward Shizuka, then suddenly went through him.
Shizuka: I don't planned
to get creamed three times today.
Zelgadis: High speed movement, even Xelloss is not that fast.
Rezo: But what ever goes around, comes around.
The fireball made a loop and came back to Shizuka, it impacted and the flame engulfed him.
Lina: Victory.
The gang watched in horror, as Lina stood there and laughed.
Rezo: She is a devil.
Michael: Oh! Well, tough luck old friend. Good bye.
A voice came out of the flaming ball of fire.
Voice: Where is my manners, we haven't been properly introduced...
Suddenly the flame burst outward and was extinguished. Shizuka is standing there, small field of light surrounds him. He looked up, Diety marking glows brighter and brighter. He chuckled.
Shizuka: The name is
Shizuka, Diety, category I, class I. Secretary and personnel guard of Kami-sama.
Amelia: Tha..That's impossible...
Shizuka: As a secretary to the Lord, I was bless with speed, knowledge,
and LOTS OF POWER.
He threw all 52 card into midair, and all of them start hovering. Shizuka smirked again...
Shizuka: You will all DIE. Well...maybe all except for the Queen.
Queen of Swords: Wait!
The Slayers cast looked up with a look of hope in their eyes.
Queen of Swords: Can you spare Xellos too? Also, I don't care what you're going to do with them <Pointing at Lina and group> Just don't harm the island.
All: <Facevault>
Shizuka: I..Guess.
Michael: How can you do this to us.
Queen of Swords: Hey! I still didn't get you back for hitting me with
that cannon, and marrying Filia without my consent.
Zelgadis: Get ready guys. We need major defensive spell.
Shizuka was chanting. Six cards suddenly flow up, forming a star.
Shizuka: Pure light that protects, protect once more, destroy those who stand before me. DIVINE RETRIBUTION!!!
He hold his hand out, a bright light started to form, and grow bigger and bigger.
Rezo: Holy Shit, and with the magic field to amplify the power...
Suddenly Lina's Shadow started to glow, a green hair girl with school cloths emerged out of the shadow with grace, and looked at Shizuka.
Girl: I found you, Shizuka-san.
Shizuka blinked twice at the familiar tone.
Shizuka: Haki?...What are you? with them? Oh! NO.
Lina look in shock as Shizuka desperately throw his hand into the sky, A huge beam of light came out of his hand, penetrated the clouds, and illuminated the sky. Shizuka stood there, panting, and could bearly stand up. Haki ran toward him.
Haki: Shizuka-san!
Shizuka: Thank god, I manage to change the course.
Shizuka's form collapsed onto the ground.
Filia: That was close. Who is that girl?
Michael: I..don't know, it's been a while since I last saw him.
Lina walked to Shizuka, and looked at Haki,
who is holding him in her lap.
Haki: Don't worry about him, He'll be fine in a few minutes.
Lina: I'm... glad, by the way, Who are you?
The group walk over and looked at her, eagerly waiting for her reply.
Haki: I am Haki. Demoness
Category II class II unlimited, Succubus.
Girls: WHAT!!!
Guy: ...no comment.
Lina: So what's Shizuka to you?
All the guys, especially Rezo, stared.
Haki: My beloved.
Rezo: Damn!, Taken already.
Gourrigan and Zelgadis is staring at him suspiciously.
Rezo: Ha! Haa! Heh! Just
kidding.
Amelia: You are a Demoness.
Haki: Yes.
Filia: and you like a God.
Haki: Yes.
Lina: How does THAT work?
Haki: Humm... We like each other?
Lina made quite a dent on the ground.
Lina: NO! Isn't there some
kind of restrictions?
Haki: Maybe.
Rezo: So you are a Succubus.
Haki: Yes.
Rezo: So is it true that you visit, males in there sleep and...and
...seduce them?
Haki: Theoretically, YES, but I'm way too shy for that.
All: NO WAY!
Michael: What a waste, you are cuter than Fili..Ouch!
Michael didn't have a chance to finish his sentence as Filia smashed him in the head. Then pull him face to face with her.
Filia: We are going to
have a little TALK, husband...
Michael: I'm sorry?
Filia continued to drag Michael into a nearby bush, and started their little talk.
Filia: You stupid, ungrateful, two-timing. Pervert!!!
The talk was rather one sided.
Michael: Ahh! Sorry! <Wham> Ouch! Arrgh! Somebody save me!!!"
Finally it ended.
Michael walked out of bush, his cape is torn in several place, and he looks like he is in pain. Then a triumphant Filia walked out. Her mace smashed in half.
Michael: Are you mad woman?
Shizuka woke up slowly, and happens to caught the rest of Michael's phase.
Michael: Just for calling
a Succubus cute doesn't mean I want to sleep with her.
Shizuka: You want to WHAT?
Michael blink twice. <Gulp>`
Shizuka: HOLY!!!
Michael: WAAAAAAAAA!
The ground beneath Michael shattered and burst of light break loose. Sending Michael hurling through the air. All the inhabitant of the Island clapped and cheered.
Gourrigan: What form, what
skill, what a beautiful sight.
Lina: I agree.
Michael: Damn you! Just wait till I come back downnnnn! <WHAM> or
maybe later..
Queen of Swords: So Shizuka, why are you here?
Shizuka: I had a wish to grant on this island, I think is for Lin.. I
mean Gourrigan.
Lina was been restrained by Dathon's zealot.
Lina: Why you little, That's MY wish. Gourrigan, you better wish for something important! Or I'll SKIN YOU AND THROW YOU INTO A SALT PIT!!!
Zelgadis: Ignore her
Gourrigan. Make your wish.
Gourrigan: Well... I wish that Lina won't get mad again...
All: How sweet...
Shizuka: Ok! Initializing the process.
Shizuka closed his eyes and looked up into heaven. His Diety marking glowed and send a beam of light into the sky. Few moment later, IT CAME CRASHING DOWN.
Shizuka: This..<zap.> is <zap.> not <zap.> RIGHT!!!<zap.> <zap.> <zap.>.
A big explosion followed, after the smoke cleared, a charred and dizzy Shizuka is lying on the ground.
Queen of Swords: WHAT
HAPPENED?
Haki: Yggdrasil feedback?
Michael was trying to climb out of the pit he made.
Michael: Almost there, two more step! Ha! I made it, I AM INVINCIBLE.
That's when the sky turned into a pinkish hue. A beam of red light came down, and just happens to land on him, striking him back down.
Michael: I hate my life.
Shizuka: It's a message from Kami-sama.
"To My FORMER Secretary Shizuka: Due to your misjudgment, you have submitted a wish that even the Gods cannot grant, The Yggdrasil system had crashed and you will be staying on Gourrigan's island until the system come back online. Don't worry, Urd is on the job. So I speak.
Shizuka: Urd is on the
job, URD is on the job. Argh! I'll never get out of this island again...
Haki: Take it easy, Shizuka-san, I'll stay with you.
Rezo: Hey! Zelgadis.
Zelgadis: What?
Rezo: Does that mean Lina's wraith even overcome the power of God???
Zelgadis: Unfortunately...YES.
Rezo: I think I feel scared.
Under Lina's feet, we see two extremely fried zealots.
Lina: That's for trying to
restrain a defenseless, young maiden. Now Gourrigan WHAT KIND OF WISH.. Oh! Forget it.
Dathon: You zealot-killer, you fried my royal guards!!! How could you!
With Lina and Dathon arguing, Shizuka in shock and Haki trying to comfort him, and Michael the red priest still trying to get out of the pit. The might Queen of Sword brought up a interesting question.
Queen of Swords: Hey! Where is Xelloss?
Inside Dathon's garage. We see a bounded shadow, cowered in a corner. He seems to be...Singing.
Xelloss: NOOoobody knows the trouble I've seen, nobody knows my sorrow.
With the new addition to Gourrigan's island, the God and the Demoness will final restore the peace to the island.
Michael: Arrg!
I...LIVE...AGAIN!!! I'M COMING TO GET YOU, SHIZUKA!!!
Shizuka: I'll out run you any day you good for nothing bag of RED RAG!!!
REZO Wannabe!!!
Michael: Why you... Come back here.
Haki: Shizuka-san be careful.
Then again... maybe not.
The End
