I am alone. All alone. My best friend, no! Friend is too small a word for him! My love of all time... He's gone. Nothing can change that, but oh how I wish my pen could eternize his name! I barely whisper of the past now. For it brings back the memories of him.
I am saddened yet my burden is the same as before. No lighter. I must carry it or my people, my country, my friends, will be in danger. If a queen refuses to govern her land, the land will turn to utter chaos... As that one time...
My eyes! They are filled with tears! Must you torment me like this my love? Coming to me like an angel, then vanishing like a summer breeze or a bird\rquote s beautiful song? Yes... It must be fate, for nothing has changed. I cannot chance to hope you are alive. I would become dependent. I must not lean on you. No more.
It is another memory of the past... The performers... They are back with the very play. The play for which I met you. On that fateful night you came. You sought to kidnap me, but you only saved me.
I began to trust you.. I trusted my life to you. Then I made the fateful mistake... Trusting to you my heart. No one has ever earned such a trust from me, and no one has ever destroyed me so completely. Now.. Now there is nothing to trust.
I am just empty. There is nothing here. When the thought of being whole again comes to my mind, it leaves as a sudden whim. I am just a shell. Only the cocoon of the person. Princess Garnet Til Alexandros the 17th ... Dagger...
The play has climaxed! They have stolen away Marcus' love! Just as you have been stolen from me so suddenly... Now he looks to the moons... As do I. I cannot ask the sun to bring you. I can only hope you have been spared the nothingness I have won...What is this?
"Grant me my one last wish! Bring my love Dagger back to me!"
It is you! Zidane! I must run! But... Steiner how could you? Beatrix as well... But they are telling me somehow that I must be a princess. No... I will be Dagger for Zidane!
I race with my thoughts. You are home! Where have you been? Why didn\rquote t you come back? Why did you wait so long to keep your promise... To return? But I must ask only one question. I must choose carefully.
After reaching your arms I must decide? Do I love you? Do I hate you? ... I can only show you the happiness and joys by my tears and poundings... But your chest is so warm, and your face so inviting, that I am quickly lost in your arms and gaze. All I must know for now... Is that I love you...
"How did you survive?"
"I had to. Just because I had to return... To you..."
I am yours and you are mine... Never again will I part from thee... I will always be Dagger for you Zidane and no one else...
