VanDread: Forgotten Memories
Hello Guys! I thought I'd give it a try to write a VanDread fic, which has been lurking around my mind for quite some time now.
The story takes place after the men and Dita return from Taraak.
Some characters may turn out OOC, but I hope I'll get the hang of that.
Please, Read and Review!
Prologue: Dreams
"You are, what you are... but you are not, what you think you are... you are incomplete. You do not know, what you are, but you need to remember. Remember the past you have forgotten, the people you've lost, the battles you have fought... Seek them! Seek the Crystals of Emeran, which carry the mark of your existence, to remember what you have forgotten. Seek the Obsidian Crystal of Mn'tha, to regain your strength... Hurry, earthborn! Or the future will fall into darkness."
Hibiki awoke with a start, his heart beating fast and loud, his breath going ragged, his whole body shaking, sweat running from every pore of his body. Slowly, he looked around the room he was in, trying to calm himself down. His gaze was blurry, so he could not make out many things in the pitch-black room he was lying in.
It took him nearly two minutes, to calm down and his gaze to turn normal. He reached up to hold his head with one of his hands, as if he expected it to turn too heavy within a few seconds. Looking around in his room again, he finally managed to make out the more than spartan interior of the room, a wave of relief washing over his body, that he no longer was in that horrible place, where he had been in his dream.
The boy, pushing the blanket of himself, swung his legs to the side and sat up at the edge of his bed, his head again resting on his hands, as he tried to figure what exactly had just happened to him. But, no matter how hard he tried, he did not reach a conclusion. Finally deciding that neither thinking, nor going back to sleep would help him now, Hibiki Tokai stood up and got dressed.
With his destination in mind, he approached the door, which opened swiftly, then turned towards the left and headed for the elevator. Once he reached the elevator, it didn't take him long to reach the hangar, and walk up towards his "partner", the Paksis manipulated Vanguard he piloted, and easily the most powerful Close-Combat-Craft they had aboard the Nirvana, that is, if you ignored VanDread Dita's weaponry, and VanDread Meia's high-velocity ram.
However, before he could reach his Vanguard, the hangar doors opened again, and a new voice spoke up.
"Couldn't sleep as well?" the blue haired Dread Team Leader known as Meia Gisborn asked the boy, as she entered the hangar.
"No... well.. at least not until.." Hibiki started, but was interrupted by Meia within the second.
"A strange dream?" she asked, observing the boy as he stiffened, then sighed "It's similar to last time, isn't it? When we all had that same dream?"
He blinked a few times, then nodded, slowly "Yeah... but that voice... that wasn't the Paksis... What was that all about anyway?"
The dread leader crossed her arms, thinking for a moment "I'm not too sure, I remember a blur of images, and I think the voice said something about lost memories... One thing is clear, however."
"Huh?" was Hibiki's intelligent reply, as he waited for Meia to continue.
"That voice... was talking about you."
Okay, so much for the little Prologue.
What is that meaning of the words Hibiki and Meia heard?
Why is it only Meia, who joins Hibiki at the Hangar?
R&R please!
Until next time!
