Summary: This fiction will be told in a series of short chapters, 100, 500 or 1000 words each. Eagle and Hikaru are trapped in an isolated part of Cephiro Castle after a strong aftershock as a result of the land falling away into the void. While awaiting rescue, will Eagle take this unexpected opportunity to show a certain Magic Knight the depth of his feelings for her? Eagle/Hikaru.

Magic Knight Rayearth

Trapped: Thoughts

~(:O:)~

Eagle lay quietly within the darkness, the radiance of the Cephiran moon the only source of light within the room. He still couldn't quite fathom how fortunate he had been. Least of all finding the one soul he loved above all others, enshrined within a fragile slip of a young woman. Yet one blessed with a will as formidable as his, brimming with compassion. He could not believe what had transpired to cause this. He sent a prayer to whatever great power that watched over him for the last instance of joy he felt before his life would expire. And for the person he shared such an experience with.

This whole revelation began when the particular section of Cephiro Castle he was incarcerated in teetered upon the edge of collapse. The trio of young Magic Knights had been sent to move him to a more stable part of the castle when disaster struck. Pulling the slender, yet lithe form of the slumbering Fire Knight against him, his thoughts centred upon how this had all started.
