First Meeting Ivan Dreyar

"Hibiki where are you taking me?" I asked as he pulled out and away from the guild.

No sound came from him.

We were far from the guild now.

"Hibiki will you now tell me why you dragged me all the way out here?" I asked him again.

He turned and smiled at me. I blushed and looked away from him. "Is my girl shy?"

I frowned. "What do you mean shy? Every time you smile at me I blush and have to look away. It's an immediate reaction whenever you smile," I told him.

"I brought you out here for a good reason. The fact is I wanted to go on a mission with you. It wasn't easy getting away from the others just to be with you," Hibiki finally answered.

I blushed even more. "Really? You mean it?" I put my hands to my cheeks.

Hibiki nodded. I jumped into his arms.

At least that's done, I thought to myself. I was a little out of breath from the fight I was in but I handled it pretty well for being up in the top number of strong mages of Blue Pegasus. Now what happened to Hibiki? How is it possible that we got separated so easily?

"You have your fathers' magic," a voice commented coming up behind me.

I turned to see someone who could be like a guild master, or a very high-ranking mage walking towards me. I stood there in silence.

"What's the matter my dear, sweet Kagami?" The man asked me.

"Who are you and what do you want with me?" I asked backing away slowly. "How do you know my name?"

He smiled at me. "You should be able to recognize your own father," he taunted.

I felt my knees start to buckle beneath me. "You can't be," I muttered. Why are you just entering my life now?"

"That foolish mother ran away from her own family. She ran away from me and her other child. She didn't care what happened to you later on in her precious daughter's life," he said mockingly.

"You're lying to me. I don't believe you," I said finding strength to speak out against him. "My mother told me she ran away from her abusive brother. She didn't want him anywhere near me. She ran to protect my life."

The man laughed maniacally.

That's the same laugh from my dream. I gulped.

"She told you that did she? She didn't say anything else about her family? Who her brother is that forced her to leave Raven Tail with her brothers' unborn child?"

I looked at him with wide, shocked eyes. 'He can't be my father can he? Why would he hurt her like that?' "What did you do to her? What did you to make her run away from her own family? Tell me you're lying about being her brother," I cried.

He came closer to me. "Believe what you want. I don't much care. I am your father and her brother."

I covered to my mouth in astonishment and fell to my knees and started to cry. "You can't be. You just can't be. You're not telling me the truth. Who are you? What do you want? Please tell me," I sobbed.

I felt his hand lift my head up. I gulped. He smiled at me. "You'll find out in due time my sweet, little girl," he whispered before he disappeared in front of my eyes.

I sat there in utter confusion and shock. I didn't know what to think. I couldn't go back to the guild in the state I was in thanks to whoever that was. I pulled my knees into my chest and cried my eyes out to my heart's content.

I heard footsteps coming towards me. I lifted my head a little. I couldn't let the only man I ever liked to see me crying my eyes out.

I felt strong, protective arms wrap themselves around me. I looked up into Hibiki's eyes and I smiled. "Hibiki," I whispered. I laid my head on his chest and wrapped my arms around his neck as he picked me up and carried me back to the guild in silence.
