Opening: Slayers- 4 the future
Chapter 2
A six year old Zelanna was at the palace gardens of Saillune. She held her golden sword with a red jewel on the guard and continued to hit the dummy with all her might. She wore a white short sleeved shirt and a white skirt that went up to her knees. She wore white traveling boots and a white cape adorned with a red jewel holding it in place. She wore a white belt adorned with a red jewel holding it to her waist. Her black hair was up to her waist and she had peach skin.
"I'm going to be the strongest swordswoman and sorceress in the world! That means I have to be strong! I want to be strong! Strong! Strong! STRONG!" shouted Zelanna, slashing and stabbing the dummy with all her might. She breathed heavily when she couldn't do much to it. She fell to the grassy ground and took deep breaths. That's when she heard dreaded bells of a staff.
"You wish to be strong?" asked the voice from behind her. She looked behind her to see a sorcerer. The sorcerer wore a deep blue robe and a green cape with a blue jewel holding in place. He wore green boots and held a silver staff with bells on it. He had pale skin and green hair that was curved up at the sides. His eyes were closed so Zelanna knew he was blind.
"Who are you?" asked Zelanna, scared.
"My name is Logardo. I am here to grant your wish" replied the sorcerer. Zelanna stiffened as she realized who he was.
"You're the one we're in war with. Don't come anywhere near me!" shouted Zelanna, cowering.
"Allow me to grant your wish" grinned Logardo. White wrappings appeared and wrapped around Zelanna's arms, legs, and stomach. She screamed in panic as Logardo began casting a spell. Logardo lifted up his staff and slammed it to the ground with the bells ringing. Zelanna began to scream in pain as the spell began to take effect. Her skin turned to light blue stone skin with grey stones on her body. Zelanna dropped to the ground and was unconscious. Logardo picked her up and made it seem like he killed her by pouring blood on the ground.
Zelanna sat up quickly as she woke up. She looked at her hands and they formed into fists.
"Damn you Logardo" growled Zelanna. After a few minutes, she calmed down and got out of bed. She placed her cloak, gloves, and boots back on. She lifted her hood and placed on her mask from her cloak so that her face was hidden. She went out of her room and was confronted by the man when she reached the living room.
"Please take this money with you. This might help you on your journey" exclaimed the man. Zelanna took it and thanked him. She went out of the house with the little boy cheering for her.
"Thank you so much! I won't forget this!" cheered the boy.
Fillos prepared for his journey out of Saillune. He packed some money, food, water, and some extra clothes. He picked up his bag and confronted the king and queen at the entrance of the palace.
"Good luck Prince Fillos" smiled Amelia. Zelgadis nodded at him and Fillos gave them a thumb up. He went out of the gates of the palace and went out of Saillune.
Zelanna had been walking through the forest for a couple hours and she ran into one of Logardo's minions.
"Alright you traitor, prepare to die!" shouted the wolf/human. He wore a black shirt and green pants. He also wore black traveling boots and black gloves. He had a black leather strap around his waist and a sword with a black leather strap around his waist and a sword with a black handle. The scabbard that held the sword was green. His fur color fur color was black and eye color was green.
"You really think you could kill me Delar? I'd like to see you try" smirked Zelanna.
"I will kill you for Lord Logardo. I can't believe you betrayed us like that Zel! I thought we were friends!" shouted Delar.
"I did in order to stop his plans. Even if he is trying to cure his blindness, I can't let that happen because the consequences might be fatal to the world" explained Zelanna. They both unsheathed their swords and Delar began to lunge for Zelanna.
"You'll pay for betraying us Zel!" shouted Delar as he tried to hit Zelanna. She dodged every slash and she tried to slash Delar. Their swords connected and disconnected for a while. Zelanna finally slashed Delar's arm and he screamed in pain. He stepped back and breathed heavily from the pain.
"You're not holding back. Even with your old friend" exclaimed Delar.
"You're in my way. I must eliminate you to move on Delar" exclaimed Zelanna, getting ready to attack again. Zelanna lunged for Delar, but he moved out of the way. Delar lunged for Zelanna and their swords parried.
"You've gotten better Zel. However, your skills won't save you this time" exclaimed Delar, stepping back from Zelanna. They lunged for each other and once again parried with their swords.
Fillos walked through the forest when he heard swords clash with each other. He started to run to the source as the clashing got louder.
'There must be a fight going on' Fillos thought. He started hearing voices as well.
"You've gotten better Zel. However, your skills won't save you this time" exclaimed a voice. He made it to the fight and saw a wolf/human fighting a cloaked girl. Their swords parried as they tried to hit each other. When the wolf/human got a chance to hit the girl, Fillos went in front of her and parried with his sword.
"Don't worry miss. I'll help you fight this guy" exclaimed Fillos, stepping back.
"Who are you?" asked the girl.
"My name is Fillos. What's your name miss?" replied Fillos.
"My name is-" exclaimed the girl before she cut herself off.
"What's wrong?" asked Fillos.
"I'm fine. Just call me Zel" replied the girl.
"Are you two going to talk all day, or are we going to finish this battle?" growled the wolf/human. He lunged for Zel and she blocked it with her sword. Fillos slashed his chest and the wolf/human screamed in pain.
"I'll come back Zel! I will come and kill you and your new friend!" shouted the wolf/human, retreating from the forest. Fillos and Zel sheathed their swords and Fillos looked at Zel.
"Are you alright?" asked Fillos.
"I'm fine" replied Zel, looking at Fillos.
"What are you doing out here?" asked Fillos.
"I'm trying to end this war with Logardo. What about you?" replied Zel.
"I was assigned to try to end the war with Logardo. You see, I'm prince of another kingdom and I also want revenge for what he has done to the princess of Saillune" explained Fillos. Zel gasped at this and looked at him, shocked.
"You're Prince Fillos from New Sairaag!" shouted Zel, shocked.
"Yes. Why do you seem so shocked?" asked Fillos.
"I-It's nothing. I just never thought that I would get to meet you" replied Zel.
"Oh alright" smiled Fillos. He started to walk with Zel following him. "Since we have the same goal, I say that we work together" suggested Fillos.
"Alright Fillos. This should make this much easier" agreed Zel. They both walked through the forest.
Zelanna couldn't believe it. She ran into Prince Fillos, her close friend from the palace.
'Should I tell him that I'm alive? What if he freaks out because of my body?' Zelanna thought. Fillos saw that she was deep in thought and looked at her.
"Are you okay Zel?" asked Fillos, concerned. Zelanna snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Fillos.
"I'm fine Fillos. I just have a lot on my mind" replied Zelanna.
"Alright" smiled Fillos.
'This is going to be a long journey' Zelanna thought as they continued to walk through the forest.
