Cross Alliance—Introduction

"Our Amu has found her Precious Person," Dia whispered to the silver haired chara who had accompanied her for an eternity. The silver haired chara nodded, her silver, emotionless eyes for once portraying a passionate gentleness.

"I suppose she has," the chara said quietly, with a hint of sadness. Dia looked up to the sky, her eyes studying the forever twinkling stars.

"Does this mean…" the chara's voice trailed off. Dia nodded. "The stars have predicted it; our time here is almost up." The silver haired chara's eyes were downcast. "I never even got to meet her," she whispered.

Dia gave her a sympathetic look. "Neither did I…much." There was a brief pause before Dia asked her companion, "Where shall we go after this?" The chara shook her head, at a loss for words. "I don't know."

Dia sighed. "I was afraid you would say that." Both of them went silent, preoccupied by the shifting movement of the stars that only they could see. "Will we always hide in the shadows?" the silver chara asked, breaking the silence.

"No," Dia said confidently and knowingly. "I don't know how, but I know we will come out of the shadows one day." The silver chara let a small, rare smile slip onto her face. When dawn approached, Dia stretched her arms out tiredly.

"Let's go, Kousa," she whispered. Kousa nodded, and they both slipped into their diamond and cross eggs for the last time.

A/N: So, as with most of my fanfictions, you readers probably have no idea what the plot for this story is going to be ( I dunno why, but I'm really good at making other feel like they don't get things that I do). But, I intentionally made it like this this time. To be honest, I don't know where this story is going from here. But, that's what I like about my writing style. If you guys don't like it, well...sorry. Anyways, I also wanted to address something that some readers might ask about. Who is Kousa? Well, she is the RUMORED cross chara (Actually, no one knows what her name is. Hell, no one knows if she's real or not, besides Peach Pit). If you want to know if I think she's real or not, I'm not going to answer, because I don't have an answer. I simply don't wish to associate myself with rumors...I added Kousa because I thought she and Dia would be good together, even if their opposites. Not because I do or do not believe in her. Okay, enough of my rambling, I hope you guys enjoyed this very short introduction!
