Zack nods his head quickly and floats around staying quiet, "Hmm... Tell me a looooove story...!!!" Zack spins around while in mid-air, trying to contain his excitement. "I always enjoy a good romance tale!"

*Red suddenly looks a little worried.* Oh, a romance one? Hmm... (This means I'll have to try and think of a romance I helped with...) *He smacks a fist into his open palm.* Ah, I think I've got one...
*He clears his throat quietly, and starts the tale.* One day, when I was staying in a city out in the country, I ran across a young man crying on the side of the road. He was obviously distraught, but still everyone was simply walking past him. I couldn't simply sit back and watch, so I approached him and asked him what had upset him so.
*Red pauses for a moment to sip his tea.* Well, it turned out that he was in love, but the object of his affection was already engaged. It had been arranged by her parents, despite the fact the woman returned the feelings of my sorrowful acquaintance. Such is the workings of high society... But naturally, I vowed then and there to unite the lovers!

Zack gasps, "Oh my... I do hate match making... How did you do it!?" Zack feels a bit of jealousy rising as well as excitement, (He can't be a Cupid's helper like I am! I hope I don't have competition...")

*Red leans back in his chair.* Well, I figured that since the lady's parents had arranged the wedding, they wouldn't be swayed easily. Therefore, I felt we should look into the arranged husband's take on things... Unfortunately, that didn't go as well as I could have hoped. He was after the woman's inheritance, and he wasn't about to let us interfere...
*He leans forward for effect.* He summoned the guards of the household, and managed to lock up my acquaintance in the cellar. I had to escape for the time being, since I hadn't been properly prepared... *Red sighs.* I was distraught that I had managed to get a man detained against his will... And as bad luck would have it, the wedding was pushed forward to that evening at the arranged husband's request! If I was going to save the lover's relationship, I was going to have to work fast!

"That greedy man... How dare he attempt such an act in the name of love!!" Zack stands up and strikes a strong-willed pose and begins to cry a bit, "Ohh... What happened next...!?"

An explosion is heard far away as a tremendous amount of water trickles near the group as a waterlogged young girl steps out from behind the trees
"Aww shucks, I didn't go in the right direction."

*Red glances in the direction of the boom.* Zack, did you just hear something? *He shrugs and turns back to his audience.* Well, doesn't matter as long as we're in here.
*Red takes a moment to collect his thoughts.* Now where was I up to? Oh yes, the man had been captured. Well, I ran to the nearest potion shop and demanded use of their facilities. I whipped up a few ethers, as well as a few surprises for any guards. Then it was time for a daring rescue!
The arranged husband had left his guards to guard the imprisoned man, so I rather recklessly jumped down the chimney to get in. I'm lucky the fire hadn't been lit at the time... From there, I carefully worked my way downstairs, knocking out some guards with the noxious-smelling potions I had made. Once the man was free, we had to burst out the front door, freezing guards in order to escape.
Naturally, the first place we went was the church where the wedding was to take place. In the middle of the ceremony, we burst through the grand doorway and objected to the unison! I had to hold the arranged husband off while the couple fleed out the church entrance! It all ended in the couple having to live the city to get away from the interfering parties.
Needless to say, the pair had a tough time ahead of them, but they knew that love would guide them through it. *Red sighs.* And they simply walked off, by the light of the moon...

"Hey! Where'd y'all come from?"

Zack wipes his tears again and holds back his emotions, "Ohhhh, what a wonderful ending!! Do you always have the best stories to tell, Red? Beautiful! You should write novels of your adventures and your life!"
"What could that be...?" Zack teleports outside and sees a girl in the woods, "What could a child be doing out here..." He walks over to where the girl is.

Zack waves back just as cheerfully and moves one of his hands behind his back and adjusts his tiny glasses as he crouches down to inspect the girl, "My, my... What might a young lady such as yourself be wondering around in these woods? What might your name be?"

*Red waits patiently in the cabin, watching over Snow while Zack is outside.* (Novels, huh?) *He considers the idea of writing memoirs in later life.*

"That explosion was very shocking..."

Snow yawns a bit and opens her eyes slowly, she awakes to see Red still holding her the same way while she was asleep. She grins a little at him as she rubs her eyes, "...How long was I asleep for...?"
