Lypix

I breathed in happily, the depressing question of weither he loved me or not pushed to the back of my mind, so who cared if he did or not? I had him now, and that was all that mattered.

A shadow fell across us and I opened my eyes as someone grabbed hold of my dress and yanked me up. They held me up like a prize as I slowly registered who it was. Of course I thought bitterly, he would have to ruin this day.

"Hello beautiful. It's time to go."

I growled and attempted to kick him, but he'd been expecting it, easily dodging to the side.

Aerrow opened his eyes, instantly realising what was going on he called out and jumped up, scrambling for his blades which weren't there. The Dark Ace laughed and several Talons circled Aerrow, holding weapons to his gorgeous chest.

"Let her go!" He demanded, I tried to kick the Dark Ace again, but completly failed.

He laughed, this time it was more sobering. "I don't think so Aerrow, Cyclonis said she'd come this time." He looked at me, "Or else."

My emotion organs yelled out angrily, right this second I couldn't give a fuck about the Dark Ace, I loved Aerrow, and he loved me!

Coldly and without a heart I looked at the Dark Ace, "Tell her I don't care, I've got all I need."

He grinned, unaware that I'd condemned him, "She also said you hadn't really got a choice."

As he walked towards his skimmer I started to struggle and scream, he couldn't take me, I WOULD NOT LET HIM!

"Lypix!" Aerrow shouted after me, completly helpless.

"AERROW!" I screamed, finally managing to kick the Dark Ace where it hurt, and leaping away from him I started to run. A small pressure point to the back of my neck and suddenly I felt tired, I protested as I fell unconcious.

Cyclonis

I gave Crispin a weary smile and looked outside. I wished he'd go away, I didn't want him to see this weaker side of me.

The Dark Ace's partnership was essential now, especially since the news the doctor had given us. I had been declared barren, not that I needed children right this minute, but they would be needed eventually, I had many enemies. I sighed again, Crispin said he'd look after me, but I didn't want to be so dependant on anyone else.

"Cyclonis" A young girl whisphered in my ear, she had a good head of blonde hair.

"Yes?" I replied in a bored tone.

"You requested to know when the Dark Ace's fiancee was brought in."

I smiled, it was time for a bit of fun, "Of course. Take me to her."

The Dark Ace was out, I'd arranged a busy schedule for him on purpose, I wanted to talk to Lypix alone.

The room was a pale grey, an unusual blue sky waited outside, but the sun was nowhere to be seen. A Talon opened the door and closed it as soon as I was through. She sat in her newly fitted wedding dress, staring out. Her hair was a grey that matched the room, a shade that presented how she felt.

"What do you want." She asked with an air of bordom, all fight had left her body, it was something I did not understand.

"I wished to talk." I settled on a seat further away, the picture of her alone in the centre of the room was not one that needed to be altered.

"People always want to talk."

"I've been told you resisted. Is our deal off?"

"I don't care." Her voice cracked slightly.

I frowned, suddenly the threat of the Dark Ace's death did not bother her. I would have had him killed too, but I needed any child that they had to be taken as my own.

"Cyclonis. Answer me something."

"What?" I asked.

"You said I was an imposter, and no descendant of Crispin's. What does that mean?"

I smiled a little, at least she was taking an intrest in something. "We searched Suba. There is a document about you. It explains that you are not a proper Crystal Angel."

She turned around to face me, she'd been crying I could tell, but she wanted information now.

"What did it say?"

I patted my pocket, "I can show you." I took out the torn page and handed it to her.

Experiment No. 14

November 23rd

I'd heard that Cyclonia had obliterated Terra Ombre,it was a cold one so I knew I had to act quickly or survivours would be killed off by the temperate.

I clambered for hours over wreckage, seeing possibly thousands of lonely dead before I found her. She seemed in pain but unable to voice it, most of her body was crushed underneath rubble, suprisingly she was still concious. The most haunting thing was what she said, "Don't leave me alone." And then the blood loss must have been too much.

I brought her back and operated straight away, it was lucky I did because her crushed heart would have failed her otherwise. For some reason she adapted much better than the others, her wings grafted on much faster, and she seems to have gained the ability to change her hair colour. This is a good development, and I believe she may be a stronger candidate for what I have in mind.

December 12th

Cyclonis is requesting that I give the use of my creations to her, but I refuse to let them take control. Krysita seems an obvious choice to hide them as the Krysitians are so similar. I have spoken with the Queen and she says she will help integrate them into the community; she hasn't spoken on how much they will be told about their existences. But they will know how different they are eventually. It is inevitable that they will discover their differences. The shards of the Lobe crystal I've inserted alongside their hearts should remain undetected, and will hopefully keep their memories hidden until they can be told the truth. Maybe they will join the fight against Cyclonis then.

January 2nd

I've successfully avoided the Talons that came for me, but I have a nasty feeling that Cyclonis knows exactly where to look, the Dark Ace was close to the Queen, and the scandalous betrayl means that he will know where to go. I pray my creations know what to do, and I pray the strongest one, the one I named Lypix, can keep them safe.

Lypix looked up at me.

"I'm human."

"No. You were human."

She looked down at the paper, "Terra Ombre. That's my real home."

I stood up to leave, "No. Your home is here now."

Lypix didn't look up, and I walked out. I wasn't really sure what I had just done.
