A Mid-Autumn Night's Dream

Lina and Luna were on their way to Lina's house for the weekend. Luna often visited her sister and her husband, Gourry, on the weekends. It was a dark and stormy night. Thunder clouds formed on the horizon. But as they walked past a fast food place, Lina spotted Gourry through the window. He was sitting at a table by himself. The rest of the place was filled with cheery teenagers and families. But Gourry was alone. He picked at his pizza, not eating. Lina blinked, not beliving her eyes. Surprisingly, Gourry's head lifted. Lina could've swore she saw tears in his eyes. He quickly looked away. Lina frowned.

"He looks so sad! I have to go talk to him!"

But Luna protested. "C'mon, let's just go. ~~;"

"But look how depressed he is! I have to see if he's ok!" Lina cried desparetly.

Luna sighed. "Alright... Let's hurry up."

But given the chance, Lina became worried. "Wait! What if he's mad at me??"

"Why would he be mad at you?!" Luna asked, annoyed. Lina whined in reply. "C'mon!" Luna grabbed Lina's arm and pulled her into the building. Lina's face flushed as she stumbled into the restaurant. It was warm inside, or atleast it was to Lina. The two scanned to room for Gourry.

"Huh?!" Lina's eye fell upon where Gourry was last seen sitting. "He's gone!"

Lina spun around quickly and fled for the door. But she only got there in time to see Gourry running off into the rainy night. His footsteps echoed in the street and his sword clacked against the insides of its sheath. And Lina's tears began to fall with the rain.

Note: This inspiration was a dream I had about me as Lina and my best friend as Luna. It was so sad! ;_; I felt so bad for Gourry! But, it was only a dream. And I did alter some of it to fit the Slayers' world rather than our own concrete/Mickey D's/truck driving world. ^_^
