Disclaimer: I don't own Legend of Legaia or it's characters, duh duh duh...
Author's Note: YAY, one of the first Legend of Legaia slash ficcies! *^^* With a rather odd pairing, even. o_O But hey, anything for some good LoL slash. Focuses mainly on VahnxGi, and there'll probably be some more slash pairings later. : Let me know if this is good, please! I'm continuing this fic for myself even if it doesn't garner good reviews...
I finally got to see the Ra-Seru heroes who defeated Zeto -- and they turned out to be you and your friends. And from that minute that I laid eyes on you, I realized that Zora's little joke was finally true.
But maybe I was trying to find something in you that isn't there.
For the longest time, I had spent all of my nights since then thinking of you and wishing that you would get here already. The only reason you would come here to the Floating Castle is for the empty Mist Generator. Yeah, empty ... there isn't any Ra-Seru Egg for you to shatter, and if you destroy the generator the whole castle will fall with it. I bet you didn't know that, huh?
Do you really want to kill me, Vahn? Let me tell you now, I'd spare you on the first opportunity I got. And if I let these raging emotions get the best of me, I'd unleash my -other- plan on you. But then of course, you'd hack my head off with your Ra-Seru blade, and most likely wouldn't care if my corpse was crushed into nothing more than a crumpled sack of organs.
But you don't understand, seriously ... I came to see that you were a force to be reckoned with, and all of a sudden felt that the Mist-filled chamber I dwell in feels so empty. And that little joke -- Zora once said that I needed someone to share my pathetic life with ( she didn't call it pathetic, but I do ): a woman, possessed by a Seru to accept the Mist. A woman. Hah. Some joke it was, and I took it too seriously and to the next level by remembering I could never hurt you.
The shallow challenges I yelled at you, my phrase of saying I can deliver fatal blows to an opponent's body ... you're not my opponent, and sure as all Hell I won't even try and touch you. Of course, unless it's a -different- sort of touch.
This disturbing sort of thought is exactly what I must get off my mind somehow and somewhere. And if I told you of the feelings bottled up inside, I know you'd stay as silent as you always are.
So I won't let it go -- I'll wait until we meet again, Vahn.
* * * *
The Floating Castle remained undestroyed for quite some time, spreading the Mist throughout Karisto Kingdom. While the Mist brought chaos under Zora's firm command and the help of the Delilas family, there was a surprising calm and air of meager compassion within the castle itself. Tangled within a web of his own thoughts that would suffocate him at one point, Gi Delilas was found alone in the dark, misty chamber where he rested. Laying in an odd cocoon in the shadows, perhaps his solid ruby eyes were the only things penetrating the darkness, sheathed now with suspicious moisture. He had wasted an entire evening of further corruption just to sit here in solitude with his mind focusing on ... him.
Vahn, the Ra-Seru bearing one who had started the rebellion against the Mist.
Vahn, with his glimmering Ra-Seru that had the gift of reviving Genesis Trees and pushing away the Mist -- he had cleared Drake Kingdom and the Sebecus Islands of it already, and he and his little friends were already working on Karisto. Somewhere, somehow ... Vahn was looking at the same beautiful night sky.
Vahn, with his enchanting eyes of deepest chocolate, set into a stern bisque facade that was almost never penetrated by a smile. And much like Gi, he had the unruly tufts of blue hair strewn about ( though Gi's was a charming olive-green ), not to mention a solid figure wrapped in whatever clothing and armor he happened to be wearing at the time.
*We could easily change all of that...*
And ever since he started looking at Vahn as more than the Ra-Seru wearer who was going to put an end to the kingdom of the Mist before it even began, there had been this taunting little voice inside of his mind that called out insane and perverse things and never stopped.
Suddenly a dim light spread onto his face, a curvaceous shadow taking its place within. It was his sister Lu, who looked deeply concerned. "Gi, what are you doing in here?" she asked. "You've been in here ever since we got back."
The cocoon unfurled to let him move, and he glanced at his sister with abnormally lonely eyes. "And is that interfering with your life?" he countered. She sighed at this and balled her gloved hands on her hips. She turned on a heel to face the broad hallway outside. "No, it's not ... but Zora wants to speak to you when you're done brooding." Before he could mock her more, she was gone and the darkness had been sealed in once more.
Figuring Zora's wrath was not a pretty sight if he kept her waiting, he slid to his feet and dragged himself to the door. Placing a gloved hand upon it made it swing out of his way, and he jammed it right back into the pocket of his pants. He made his way to her throne room, where she was waiting patiently. "You wanted to see me, Lady Zora?" he called from the shadows, emerging from them unexpectedly.
She nodded, a slender arm draping itself over an armrest as he approached her and kneeled. She could sense the brew of emotions in his voice, tangled with the agony that was always coupled with the task of keeping them inside. "Yes. It's come to my attention that you have been spending most of your spare time alone, and in an inexcusable stupor when doing work. Is there something wrong, Gi?" She leaned forward and he caught her curious gaze.
There was nothing wrong, but there wasn't anything right either. She was Lady Zora, the master of his life and fate and confidant. She had nobody to relay his secrets to nor the hidden desire to. When he found the words and his voice, he told her in a very quiet voice. "Lady Zora, it's that blasted Vahn ... not his friends, but just him. I certainly know that not accepting a challenge nor providing one to a threat such as him is a dishonor, but ... it's just that I..." He trailed off there, and she stayed silent and still, waiting to see if he could continue. He honestly couldn't -- and thankfully wouldn't have to.
The doors to the throne room flew open, and one of her Sim-Seru servants ran in. "Your Highness, Your Highness!" he yelped, nearly crashing upon the floor next to Gi in a lopsided kneel. "T-The Ra-Seru wearers ... they've just revived the Genesis Tree of Sol. What should we do, Your Highness?" He panted, out of breath, not realizing that Zora's eyes had narrowed upon interruption of her conversation.
A dirty smirk suddenly spread across her face, and she waved her hand. "Send the Juggernaut to destroy Uru Mais, and Songi to follow them," she ordered. The Sim-Seru warrior rose to his feet with a terrible tremble. "Yes ma'am," he said, and flew just as quick as he came out of the throne room.
Gi was still kneeling there as if nothing ever happened, but now he had a plan in mind. Their pet Seru, Koru, was slumbering in Nivora Ravine and just waiting to set off his own thermal energy to destroy all of Karisto Kingdom. Surely Vahn and his friends would come there at one point to try and stop it. "So sorry about that, Gi," she said with an air of annoyance. "What were you going to say?"
He finally lifted his head up, every muscle in his body relaxing but not falling from its faithful kneeling position. "I know that not to fight Vahn immediately would be a dishonor, but allow me and my siblings to go to Nivora Ravine and give them a run for their money there," he explained. From the way her expression changed to a plotting smile, he knew he had struck a place of interest. "So let it be done," she said rather formally, dismissing him. He rose and turned to hibernate back into the shadows before her voice rang out again and stopped him. "Oh, and Gi?" she called, almost immediately drawing him back to his place, but standing.
She paused for a minute, a hand slicking back her crown of violet hair. She looked as if she was containing laughter. "To keep you out of this harmful solitude, why don't you consider searching for someone to share your life with? It's not as if you aren't a human. Remember the Seru brides in Ratayu -- they're Seru and they were engaged. Just a thought." And for the first time in too long, she laughed. He laughed along with her, but it was a mirthless laugh.
Perhaps Gi had taken her joke a bit too seriously, as he had picked himself up and out of his depression and began the hunt.
I know it sounds like I'm repeating things in here ... but there's a point to all of that. Read and review ple~ase! :D
