THE EAGLE & THE DRAGON

This is an original story from Tomoyo Higurashi, and here are her words…

Hello! For a long time I had in my mind this couple, but recently I decide to write a fic about them, they maybe are no together in the anime or manga, but this two I love and I want to see the results making them together. The only one fic that I had found until now about Umi and Eagle has a couple is Ice and Snow by Viscountesskiera, and has we need more I wrote this.

Now for those how had seen the anime, in the manga Eagle doesn't die, but remains in coma, only able to communicate through his thought (it is Cephiro…do not forget) The other one is that Hikaru and Co. can come and go to Cephiro from Earth whenever they want. (at least that's how I understood) My Idea on this story is to make a unification of my two endings, but you would see that through the story.

So I leave you with the story. Leave reviews please.

I'm only the translator, I'm doing this because I have a friend in Philippines, and I know that she would like this story has much as I do, she can't read Spanish that's why. Plus I think the story it's great and all the readers of fanfiction would like this too.

I'm making this translation with the full authorization from the original author. And as you most know all the characters don't belong to us.

In off from me…I hope you enjoy the story… mistakes of orthography? …ignore it.

The Bride of Fire

The night was simply perfect. There was a soft breeze that move the top of the trees trough the branch. In the sky, the stars where more brilliant than ever, like if they know about the celebration below them and want to be part of them.

At the Castle, the music and the cheerful conversation of the people can be ear in the corridors. In truth the air was nice and full of happiness. After all how often does a Magic Knight get marry? All the people of Cephiro share they happiness. Doesn't always had worry about them? Doesn't helped them with the negotiations between the neighbor planets and helped in the reconstruction of they own world? And the most important of over all, wasn't her who guarantee the freedom and salvation of Cephiro? And even if all of this wasn't truth, they still had the happiness of the groom, they had always admired and respected him, but at the same time feel sadness for his loneliness, now he wasn't alone anymore and he'll start a family with the woman that he loves.

The ceremony had finished a time ago and now all the people where in the surrounding area of the castle or in the main hall enjoy the ball. The now married couple where in the last one dancing in the middle with other couples.

The young woman has changed a lot in the past four years, for start, she was more tall and although she will never be has tall as the Magic Knight of Water, she a long time ago stop been the little girl who more than one mistake her for a child. Her figure has changed to, it was impossible to hide that she was a woman now and a beautiful one. Her face was the same, but with a maturity in her expressions and her feature weren't of a child any more. What still remains is that spark in her eyes, sweet, tender and compassionate, but with an internal flame that reveals great force and wild will at the time of fight for those who she loves. Just like her element: fire.

Hikaru was dancing agile and gracefully in the arms of her husband. Physically he's the same, attractive as the first day that she met him, still more if that's possible, his character remains the same, serious and quiet, his soul was no longer on the shadows, something that Hikaru take care personally. He wasn't serious all the time anymore, his feature was soft and the smile maybe was not always on his face but became incredibly natural and sincere. Yes Lantis was definitely happy and he'll give his last breath of life to make sure that the woman in his arms was to. There was no single person who doesn't admire how good they look together.

Hikaru's dress was simple, made with the best fine material of white shades the style was greek and so light that she can move easily, the only thing that wasn't white, was a thin transparent bow in different shades of red and pink onto her waist. In her neck rest a golden necklace with three red precious stones, plus Lantis medallion rest on her chest. For her hair, since a long time ago she stop using her braid, and for this occasion she use a hairstyle that holds her hair on the base of her nape, and from that place fall lose on her back, all decorated with small white flower. For last, she ware on her wrist golden bracelet that made more delicate her arms. Lantis was dressed in Cephiro style like always, but instead of his habitual black, he was dressed in white, and the ornaments in him were of shining silver.

The song stop, but they remain together. Hikaru close her eyes, and Lantis bow his head for rest a tender kiss on her forehead, then her eyelid, her cheeks and finally her lips. It was a soft tender and long kiss, breaking the kiss both look into each other eyes and smile.

--Does he get mad because he wasn't able to arrive on time for the ceremony or for been unable to see someone? – the groom said wickedly.

Hikaru smiled – I'm glad, Tatra seem very lonely when the dance begun –

--How much time do you think that they formalized – Lantis ask Eagle – for all of us it's obvious what they feel for each other –

He know that his friend had a difficult time in order to maintain resolute before her.
