What if things have already ended before it’s even started? What if things have never turned out the way we expect it? What if all of a sudden, there was a twist of fate right in between the circumstances? What if the Witch Doctor already showed up before the maidens could even summon the gods?

Chapter 1

Everyone surrenders himself to the beauty of slumber late that night. All was out cold but him. He is ever so persistent to consummate his plot. After a lot of analyses, research, formulations, and not to mention, a lot of blow- ups in the face (literally speaking) during testing the formula, he has finally completed the ultimate result.

"Hahaha! At last, the Body Exchanging Potion has finally completed! After 4 years of making this, I shall make sure that no one, not even Suzaku and Seiryuu themselves, will ever stand in my way in fulfilling my plans. HAAAA-HAHAHAHA!!!", the lunatic Witch Doctor laughed a diabolical laugh that woke half of the entire capital of Kutou.

"Hey shut up there a**hole! People are tryin’ to get some sleep here!", one of the griping neighbors yelled at him.

Meanwhile in the distant castle of the emperor, Nakago's senses were aroused at such evil yet silly laugh that echoed from far away to the very depths of his ears. "Did you hear that, Lady Yui?", he asked the young girl who sat right beside him.

"Hear what?", Yui inquired obliviously.

"Never mind. Must be my imagination," Nakago just replied. "By the way, shouldn't you be going to sleep right now? We'll be having a big day ahead of us. We shouldn't be left behind by the Suzaku warriors."

"You should get some rest yourself, Nakago. I’ve seen you train this morning. I’m sure you’re pretty exhausted by now," Yui said. The two have just exchanged good nights to one another before they went to bed. Nakago laid his back flat on bed when a curvaceous figure crept over his ceramic body. He lifted his head only to find that it was...

"Soi," he whispered.

"Yui was right. You are exhausted, Nakago-sama. You should need it this night before you retire yourself to sleep," Soi whispered back with her lips slightly touching his ear in a teasing way.

"That’s quite stimulating, but not now," Nakago said.

"But why not?" Soi asked.

"Somebody’s watching."

"Who’s watching?"

"Wholesome image, Soi. We’ll do this when the reader is not around. Who knows how young the reader might be. We wouldn’t want to set a bad example for them, would you?"

"(With blazing eyes set on you) O, I get it. Nosy little kids!" Soi murmured irritably. "Guess we should do this some other time. Just call me when they’re gone, Nakago-sama."

Meanwhile on the other side of the castle, the twin brothers were still awake. Amiboshi removed his headband while Suboshi was changing his pajamas. Suboshi couldn’t help but stare at his brother curiously.

"What is it, bro?" Amiboshi asked.

"You know, it’s kind a funny we both look strikingly a lot like the Maiden of Seiryuu if we remove our headbands. Don’t you think so, Amiboshi?" Suboshi said.

"What’s more funny is that it’s pretty obvious that you actually have a crush on our Maiden, don’t you Suboshi?" Amiboshi replied teasingly.

Suboshi blushed at the thought that his brother has seen right through him. Damn! He has read my thoughts again. We really are twin brothers after all and there’s no doubt about that! Suboshi tried to dress the naked truth with his defensive denial, "What are you talking about? I only serve our Maiden because it’s my duty as a Seiryuu shichiseishi to protect her, nothing more!"

"Dear brother, no matter how hard you try to deny it, I can still see right... through, hi- hi, you, hi-hi-hi," Amiboshi chuckled as he bent low and looked right through the big hole of his pajamas. "Hey bro, how come there’s a hole in your butt, uh- I mean rear?" Suboshi’s whole face was redder with embarrassment as he turned his head to see his rear. Amiboshi’s right, there is a hole in his pajamas.

"Suboshi, you don’t have to be ashamed of anything with me. I’m your brother," Amiboshi patted Suboshi on the shoulder. He continued, "... and you don’t have to be ashamed of sharing your secrets with me either. What are brothers for anyway? C’ mon, I can keep a secret."

Suboshi sighed and said, "Alright, alright, you win. I confess: I kind a like have a crush on Lady Yui. I think she’s so smart and pretty. But I don’t think she ever will get to like a guy like me. And besides, Yui and Nakago are getting along quite well and, and..."

"What are you talkin’ about? You’re being so pessimistic, bro. Just relax. Nakago- sama said that he will introduce you to the Maiden while I’ll be on a mission to Konan." Suboshi yanked out, "Really?"

"Absolutely!" Amiboshi answered.

"Wow, I can finally get to talk with her personally. (Blush) I’ll volunteer to be her personal bodyguard. I’ll show that blonde (Nakago) a piece of me! And as I serve and protect her for a long time, (blushblushblushblush) who knows when romance shall make a difference. Mr. Cupid, you’ve just hit me bull’s eye baby! I’M INLOVE!!!"

"Will you shut up, Romeo? Can’t you see a kid’s trying to get some sleep here! A kid your age should be asleep by now! IT’S ALREADY PASS BEDTIME!" Miboshi complained furiously from the next room.

"A kid my age, eh? Look who’s talking," Suboshi muttered.

"Ooops, looks like you got a little carried away there, bro," Amiboshi teased Suboshi.

Suddenly, Suboshi grabbed Amiboshi by one arm, swerved him in his upper limbs and supported Amiboshi’s back with Suboshi’s right arm, as if they’re about to dance Tango. Amiboshi quickly got the picture and acted as Yui (after all, he does look a great deal like her without the headband). Suboshi bent his head lower to bring his face closer to his twin’s. Suboshi pretended that the one in his arms is Yui and said, "Lady Yui, I shall serve and protect you, even if it will cost my life, because I love you."

Amiboshi giggled and replied, "Really? O Nakago, be gentle."

To his surprise, Suboshi dropped him on the floor and exclaimed, "Nakago?"

Amiboshi gave out a crackling chuckle as if his butt didn’t actually hurt after that fall. "Fooled you, didn’t I? Hahaha."

I know that ridiculous laugh. When Suboshi finally recognized his trademark chuckle, he grasped to his breath only to find that the imposter disguised as Amiboshi was actually none other than...

"Tomo!"

To be continued in Chapter 2...
