It's time to do a Slayer Fic! I absolutely adore Lina Inverse and her ragtag group of misfits. Slayers is one of my favorite animes of all time because of it's humor, violence and strange relationships. This will be a two part poemfic about Lina's feelings for Zel and vice versa. That means that this is a Zel/Lina coupling so be warned. I may end up adding a third part as a sort of epilogue if I get the inspiration. But until then enjoy this.

Ja ne,

Samanda

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters from Slayers. I'm merely borrowing them for a time.

Fireball!

No changes are needed

I think you are perfect

Just the way you are.

When you first joined

Our little group

They treated you differently

But I couldn't see

Why they would.

You are still a person

Though you hide

Your personality well

Under a thick layer

Of quiet tenacity.

My fingers itch

to stroke your hair

Flying in the breeze.

I am dying once again

To gaze into mysterious eyes

Richer than sapphires

To drown in them.

I want to make you laugh

Always,

To keep you laughing.

I want to stay

By your side forever

Wandering the world.

In short I love you.

Of course

I have an image to maintain

So I cannot tell you

First.

Once you say it

I will confess to you.

Who am I kidding?

You will never love me

You have someone

Who is a lady

Waiting for you already.

Dammit now I'm pissed!

"Fireball!"

"What was that for?"

Burnt rock is in the air.

The group is now glaring at me.

"Oops. Hehe."
