Author's Corner!!

Shi-chan: Here's the first poem I've ever released to fanfiction.net, much less about Slayers. ^.^ Please don't flame me too, too bad, okies?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I'm filled with regret and sorrow

Emotions a mazoku should not know

Why did it happen this way?

All of eternity, memories stay

I saw her cry, heard her scream

But loyalty and selfishness forbade me

Wrapped up in mine and Zelas' ambitions

Never looked to see the conditions

I've only the rest of forever to go

I can't live that long with what I know

Zelas told me to make her one

Resistance would cause her to be gone

Tears gently sting my eyes

For the first time, I, a mazoku, dare cry

For darling Lina-chan faded with time

[For those who don't get the plot of the poem, Zelas instructed Xelloss to help her kill Lina, and he feels regret about having done so, but he doesn't know why since mazoku are not supposed to feel such emotions.]

Author's Corner!!

Shi-chan: Kinda short, kinda to the point, but sweet, ne?

Xelloss: What twisted you to write such a thing?!

Shi-chan: When we had to do benchmark testing in homeroom Friday. I got bored!

Xelloss: Even a history test couldn't twist someone to write something like that!

Shi-chan: But. . . it *was* a history test! But ever since I discovered you and named you my favorite character, I keep writing angsty stuff like this! YOUR FAULT FER BEING SO DARNED KAWAII, XELLOSS-SAMA!

Xelloss: You're the fruitcake. . .

Lina: . . .That's my line. . .
