[color=00746b][b]NOLAN[/b][/color] Hunger won over him and Nolan left the stands to go grab whatever grub he can get in the stadium. Even vengeance seeking, cold blooded God Slayers needed to eat after all. He went to the first stand he saw and grabbed a cheese burger with mayo added into it and a tall soda. The burger seemed to be quite depressing to look at; the beef paddy was limp and not all too thick and the rest of the burger drooped as if it lacked any joy. Then again that was fast food in general save for some of the actual good places that didn't sap the joy out of their own food. [color=662d91]"Psssss! Psssss over heres!"[/color] A voice whispered loudly from behind a column. Nolan stopped walking and arched his brow wondering just who could it been and what did this person want. If this was someone participating in the games that wanted to take Nolan out without anyone noticing then they had another thing coming. He laid his hand on Kaso's hilt and saw the figure's shadow move, ready to attack at any moment. Then he saw it was a [url=https://otakurepublic.com/media/binary/001/117/646/13707887.jpg]cat...[/url] A bipedal cat with a pompadour and sunglasses as well as a stereotypical high school thug outfit. [color=662d91]"Ya Nolan right? The God Slayer?"[/color] Nolan removed his hand from Kaso and laid it on his side. He has seen strange creatures such as the yokai and divine beings such as the god's messenger, but a talking delinquent cat was a first. [color=00746b]"You've got the right person. Just what do you want? Are you lost or something?"[/color] It seemed like this feline didn't have intention of giving him trouble though what did he want from him? A glimmer of light shined brightly from his sunglasses followed by a wide fanged grin. [color=662d91]"Well today is ya lucky day! From this day forth I'm gonna be ya partner! Dalton at ya service!"[/color] The feline gave Nolan a thumbs up with dazzling lights shining around him. The God Slayer stared at delinquent feline silently for approximately ten seconds or more.[color=00746b] "Not interested." [/color] Nolan walked past Dalton, who's jaw dropped and the dazzling lights fell to the ground. The feline sprouted wings and quickly flew in front of him stopping him dead in his tracks. [color=00746b]"I said no. Bugger off."[/color] If his words didn't spoke loud enough then his glare spoke louder. [color=662d91]"Wait wait wait! That's rather hasty don't ya think? Ya a slayer and all slayers usually have some Exceed partner! Ya can't be a real slayer without one!"[/color] Oh how he wished he could take that back. He was pushed away by Nolan's hand and he kept on walking only to have Dalton tackling Nolan's back and cling on to him. [color=662d91]"Please let me join ya!"[/color] [color=00746b]"Get the hell off me!"[/color] He tried shaking the Exceed off, but his hands were holding his food so he couldn't grab him unless he used his magic though he wished to keep it as a secret weapon. After trying to shake him off he didn't care about keeping his magic a secret. A hand made of souls grabbed the exceed and held the annoying feline in front of him giving him the dirtiest look he could give. [color=00746b]"I'm telling you only once more. Leave me alone."[/color] Dalton looked down at the floor quite dejected.[color=662d91] "I just wanted to be like those exceeds that partnered with the Dragon Slayers...I wanted to live up and surpass them. I mean, if someone can slay gods then it must mean they are real bad asses!"[/color] He stared at the exceed and sighed, dropping him on the ground. [color=00746b]"Follow me."[/color] Nolan began to walk back to the stands with the exceed sitting behind him with shiny sunglasses. [color=662d91]"You mean we're partners?!"[/color] The God Slayer didn't even look back. [color=00746b]"I never said that."[/color] The exceed didn't listen as he bounced around in joy all the way back to Phoenix Wing's stand.
