AN: Alright, so the last few chapters (other than the Halloween special) have been kind of heavy. So we're gonna change it up a bit and bring you Truth or Dare, Divinus Magia and Protectors style!

Both Divinus Magia and the Protectors were gathered in the guest hall to play truth or dare. Why? Well, Lo Pho had thought it would be a good bonding activity for the two guilds and while Ritchie and Brandon had refused to participate themselves, they were more than willing to see their guild members play *cough* suffer *cough*. 

"Truth or dare... Kay!" Mario said with a smirk on his face. He had a good one for this. 

"Dare!" The brunette declared with a smirk. 

"Ok, I dare you to shift into a cat and-" He whispered the last part in her ear. "Go up to Kit and say 'Nyeh?'"

"Oooooh okay!" Kay said before shifting into a cat. She then walked over to her girlfriend, put her paws the other girl's knee and said really cutely. "Nyeh?"

Kit nearly squealed as she picked up her girlfriend and cuddled her close. Kay let her for a moment before saying, while still in cat form. "Truth or dare Inmo!"

"Dare! I ain't no chicken!" Inmo declared, even as a small explosion went off nearby. 

Kay looked at her girlfriend, who just nodded with an evil smirk, before saying. "Ok, I dare you to kiss your crush if you have one."

Inmo went bright red. He looked at her with wide eyes, silently pleading with her to change the dare. She didn't say a word, she just looked at him expectedly. 

"Please? I can't- I don't want to!" Inmo finally asked. 

"Aww come on, Inmo, it can't be that bad." David said clapping the explosion mage on the shoulder. 

"Yeah, Inmo, your crush might even like you back~" Kit giggled at him. 

Inmo looked between the three of them with a red face before he covered his face and said. "I can't do it!"

Before they could even say a word to that, Inmo got up and ran out of the building like the hounds of hell were chasing him. Most of the newer members stared after him in shock even as Brandon stood up and chastised them. "You shouldn't have tried to do that. When a person isn't ready to reveal their crush, pressurizing them just makes them lose self-confidence. Maybe prod for them to reveal their crush gently but telling him to kiss his crush was a little bit too far."

Brandon then sighed. "I'll go make sure he's alright."

The guild leader left to go check on him, leaving the rest of them in silence. "Should we continue or?"

"If somebody wants to take Inmo's turn, then I don't see why not." Ritchie said after a moment. 

"I'll do it." Bryan volunteered and after a moment, he asked. "Zaro, truth or dare?"

"I believe that I will switch it up and do a 'Truth' as you call it." Zaro said as he took another gulp of beer. 

"Hmmmmm oh I know! If you were locked in a room with someone, who would it be?" Bryan asked after a moment. 

"I wouldn't be locked in a room in the first place." Zaro said setting the cup down so that its contents sloshed a little bit before settling. 

"Let's just say hypothetically you were, who would you want to be in the room with you?" Bryan asked once more.

Zaro thought for a moment before he asked. "Are there any opening in the room, not big enough to get out of easily, but just openings in general?"

Bryan thought about it himself before nodding. Zaro nodded back at him and said. "Then I would want Ritchie to be in the room with me as he can lightning travel and would be able to see us out of there."

Everyone nodded thoughtfully, seeing the logic behind Zaro's words. Though Kay and Kit did manage to notice something. When Zaro had said that, Ritchie had gotten the barest hints of a blush on his face. While it hadn't really been noticeable to anyone else, they were shippers so they instantly noticed and smirked.

"Truth or dare... Lo Pho." Zaro decided on after a moment. 

"I will also go with the truth." Lo Pho declared. 

Zaro looked a little lost on what to ask before David got a devilish smirk on his face and leaned over to whisper something to the strengthening mage. Zaro nodded after hearing it before asking. "David has suggested that I ask you who the most well-trained member of your new recruits?"

Bryan, Kay, and Jakey all turned to the second expectedly, making Lo Pho sweat a little. "I mean they're all doing excellent..."

"But whose the best?" Kit asked with a giggle. 

"Ah but you said the most well-trained, not the best, and I would have to say Relena, as she has had former experience and therefore she is probably the most well trained of them." The three guild members looked at each other before Kay admitted. "That's fair."

And so the game continued, though Brandon and Inmo never returned to the game itself, the rest of them had a good time playing.
