I had this story out a long time ago, but now I've decided to put it back up.
WARNING: Amelia is paired off with Xellos in this story and a few other people, but that's beside the point.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Slayers. If I did, Naga would have shown up when Lina travels with her new group.
Amelia didn't know why this happened and really wished it happened later on in her life. However it was happening now. Truth be told, she loved the small thing in her stomach that would in a few months time become her child. However letting Lina know about it…well that was a different story. Lina was going to kill her when she found out about her being the mother of Xellos's child. She wouldn't be mad at Amelia having a baby. She was going to be mad that Xellos had lain with her multiple times and the result was a baby that the sorceress was going to call a monster. The thought brought tears of fear and sadness to her eyes. She loved him and he loved her back. Would Lina come between love between two people? Knowing her, she would.
Gourry would be confused and maybe be a little happy about it, so she had no worries about him. He would probably be the only one to understand and try to encourage Lina to understand as well as Zelgadis and Filia. They too would probably get mad too. However Amelia didn't care about what they thought. She only cared about her lover knowing.
As she got back to the hotel, Xellos greeted her. "Amelia! There you are. You went to the doctor didn't you?"
"Yes. Oh Xellos-sama!" she hugged him. "I-I'm going to have a baby."
"Why that's…" he suddenly stopped short in the middle of his happy speech. "…bad…"
"B-bad?" Amelia stepped back. "Why is it bad?"
"You can't tell Lina and the others." said Xellos frowning.
"I know. Lina would probably kill you." said Amelia, dropping the honorific off Lina's name. She often did this when speaking with Xellos.
"But not before Filia. She'd think I'd done something to you just to make Lina mad." he sighed. "Overall, I'm happy about the news…but we should think about moving on."
"You mean…" Amelia didn't know what to say. He wanted her to leave her friends behind? She had grown to love her friends like family. However with the baby on the way, there was no way she'd be able to stay anyway. Lina would consider her a burden now that she was eating for two. She could just imagine Lina yelling about how much money it was going to cost buying things for the infant when it came.
"Amelia, I know you love your friends…if you call them that…but you must think of our child. It'll grow fast and be out sooner than a normal human pregnancy. I think would be best if we both left."
"I-I guess. I'll get my things." Amelia sighed and went inside the hotel.
"Hurry. They're still eating and please don't let them see you. If they do, make sure you come up with a good lie."
"Lie?" Amelia frowned. She couldn't lie and especially not to Lina Inverse. What if she saw through it? However she knew she had to and went inside of the hotel.
Lina was eating dinner with the rest of the group. Martina, Zelgadis, and Filia looked on with disgust as Lina and Gourry were fighting over a large turkey leg while the waitress and Sylphiel looked as if Lina was going to turn into a dragon or something if Gourry wouldn't let go of the leg. She thought about going over and tearfully telling each and every one of them that she would dearly miss them.
She wanted to tell Lina she was like a sister to her and Gourry was like a brother. She wanted to tell Zelgadis that she cared for him as a really good friend and that he should never give up hope on finding a cure for his condition. She wanted to tell Martina good luck with her future and to Filia that she hoped her species would make a comeback some day. She wanted to tell Sylphiel never to give up on winning Gourry's heart. However as she thought those things, she couldn't bring herself to do so. What would she say if she did speak to them? If she said her father was sick, how long would it before Lina or one of the others visited Seyruun and found out that she lied. Out of all of them, Amelia would be the last person they would think would lie to them.
'I can't leave them without a single good-bye!' she frowned. 'But I must go! I don't want to put Xellos through what the others would have in store for him if they ever found out…I know! I'll send a letter to them when we're really far off! That way Xellos-sama and possibly me won't get hurt! I'll miss them, but it'll be better for the group if Xellos-sama and I left for good.'
After packing her things, Amelia met back up with her lover and told him she was ready to leave. "Well where too, Amelia?"
"What? You mean you don't even…" she sighed. "Well…maybe we can stay with Nee-chan!"
"You have a sister?" Xellos looked surprised at this.
"Oh I've never told you? Well Gracia-chan is really sweet, but I haven't seen her in a while though. However we have written each other now and then. I could write her on our way to the next town over and see if she can be with us."
"Well why not. The more the merrier."
While traveling, Amelia found traveling much more relaxing than when she traveled with Lina and the others. They were always getting into some sort of conflict of some sort (both with each other and people outside the group), but now it was relaxing and she had so much more time to be with Xellos romantically. "I hate to say it, but I don't really miss traveling with Lina."
"Yes, she was quite violent, loud, and miserly. It's nice to get away from that…"
Suddenly they heard a loud laugh coming from not too far away. Xellos thought it was some kind of dying animal, but Amelia knew that laugher from a mile away. "Nee-chan!"
"Amelia!" suddenly a woman with a huge chest and what seemed like she was only wearing a bra and panties (which she kind of was) and a long flowing cape. The woman hugged Amelia and she hugged her back. The next he knew was that he was laying on his butt. "HOW DARE YOU IMPREGNANTE MY IMOUTO, BAKA!?"
"Nee-san, please calm down!"
"Calm down?! CALM DOWN?!" Naga looked ticked off. "I'll calm down after I kill him!"
Amelia jumped in front of him. "Nee-chan, please! He's really nice and I love him! You wouldn't come between our love would you?"
"Fine!" Naga glared at the mazoku. "But I still don't let it!"
"Nice to meet you too." he said brushing himself off after Amelia helped him up.
"Um Gracia said we could travel with her until the baby I was born." Amelia said trying to break the ice.
"Amelia, are you sure you just don't want to teleport to Seyruun instead?" Xellos said avoiding any eye contact with the woman. He could kill her if he wanted to, but he didn't do it because of Amelia. Plus that angry look on her face surprisingly scared him.
"Amelia's staying with me, so I can keep a close eye on her." She said crossing her arms and said this in a 'that's final' voice.
"Come on, Xellos-sama!" His lover looked at him with big blue eyes. "Please?"
"Fine, but only if she stays away from me."
"Not gonna happen." Naga then cheerfully turned to Amelia. "Amelia-chan, we've got so much to talk about. I've gotta show you this sweets shop. The pastries are amazing! You've gotta try them!"
"Oooh! I can't wait!" the two sisters then ran off together, seeming to completely forget about Xellos. Meanwhile the makuzo wished he knew what he was getting into before he agreed on staying with Amelia's sister. Deep in his gut, he couldn't help but to think that not only was this probably going to get worse, he was also not getting laid anytime soon with Gracia around.
For those of you who didn't know, Naga is Gracia. I don't know why she goes by Naga, but yeah her real name is Gracia and she's Amelia's older sister who used to travel with Lina a long time ago. Please review if you liked it. There will be a sex scene in the next chapter.
