The Return of the Silver Knight

Ch.4 Feelings/Intertwine

Hana was sitting on the porch with Lord Lykouleona and Lady Raseleane. Hana was still dozed off from the kiss that Ruwalk gave her late last night. "Is something wrong?" Raseleane asked. Hana blushed lightly. "N-No. I'm fine." Hana said. "Hana...you can tell us. We won't tell anyone." Lykouleon said with a gentle smile. Hana sighed. "Late last night, Ruwalk-" "Your Highness!" A voice said. It was Alfeegi, all out a breath. "What is it, Alfeegi?" Lykouleon said with a concern look. "Excuse me, your majesty. It's about Rath's sword, it seems that Rath is..." Alfeegi started. "Gone?" Lykouleon asked. "I only took my eye off him for a second!" Alfeegi said.

Hana and Raseleane stared at each other. "Did you tell him about the sword?" Lykouleon asked. "No. I was nearly avoiding him..." Alfeegi said. "Maybe he's off playing with Crewger." Lykouleon said while sighing. "My lord. If I may?" Raseleane asked. "What is it, Raseleane?" Lykouleon asked while looking at her. "About Rath. It seems that Thatz took him to the fighter's guild." Raseleane said. "The Fighter's house! But that means..." "What does it mean?" Hana and Lykouleon asked. Hana saw Alfeegi going towards the fighter's house. "I wonder what's that all about?" Hana asked. "I just hope he doesn't cause a scene..." Lykouleon thought. "Now, you were saying Hana?" Raseleane asked. Hana sighed once more. "Well...Ruwalk was trying to make me feel better since the talk you and me had yesterday, Lord Lykouleon. I kinda fell asleep...and...something happened." Hana said. "What is it?" Lykouleon asked. Hana blushed a slightly bright red and gulped. Raseleane giggled while Lykouleon chuckled. "I think we know what happened, Hana. There's nothing to be ashamed of. I think it's great that someone is there that likes you." Raseleane said. Hana stares at them a little suprised. "R-Really?" Hana asked. Lykouleon smiles and nods. "It's okay, Hana. Ruwalk is a great friend and I assure you that he will do anything to make you happy." Lykouleon said. Hana then smiled from what Lykouleon said. Hana was then thinking about talking to Ruwalk.

Later that evening, Hana was walking down the hallways. When she turned a corner, she bumped into someone. It turned out to be Ruwalk, the same person that she was looking for. Luckily, she didn't fall to the ground because she was held close to Ruwalk. Hana blushed slightly. "You okay, Hana?" Ruwalk asked. Hana nodded. "Yeah..I'm fine..." Hana said. There was an akward silence between them. "R-Ruwalk?" Hana started. Ruwalk stares at her in concern. "Yes, Hana?" Ruwalk asked. It was very difficult for Hana to speak to Ruwalk. "Th-that kiss last night...d-did you...really mean it? I-Is that...how you feel...about me?" Hana asked. Ruwalk was suprised from her question, then smiled gently and sighed. She suddenly felt a gentle embrace from Ruwalk. "...I don't lie about my feelings, Hana." Ruwalk said in a gentle voice. Hana was suprised and then returns the hug. Ruwalk stroked her long, silky, black hair gently. Hana felt his hand on her cheek, making her look at him. "...I really do love you Hana...and I mean it." Ruwalk said. He then closed the distance between them with a gentle kiss. Hana closed her eyes and slid her arms around his shoulders, returning the kiss. They soon pulled away from each other. Ruwalk then rest his forehead against hers. "...thank you, Ruwalk." Hana whispered. Ruwalk smiled. Ruwalk then pulled away and stared at Hana. Hana then heard someone coming. It was Tetheus. "Did...something happen?" Tetheus asked. Ruwalk was zoned out, not knowing what to say. He can't fool Tetheus and he knows it. "We were just talking." Hana said. Tetheus sighed. "Ruwalk. I need you for a second." Tetheus said. "Uhhh...sure." Ruwalk said. Tetheus stopped by Hana then scruffed the top of her head. He smirked and walked down the hallway with Ruwalk.

Hana smiled to herself as she walked into her room. Shizuka was there along with Silver. "Did something happen, sis?" Shizuka asked. Hana smiled gently. "You could say that." Hana said. She yawned. "Well, I'm beat. Do you want to head in, Shizuka?" Hana asked. Shizuka yawned lightly and nodded. Hana turned off the lights and pulled the covers up to herself and Shizuka. Shizuka was already fast asleep. Hana, on the other hand, couldn't forget what happened today. Soon, she then fell asleep. In the middle of the night, she heard someone come in her room. She pretend she was asleep. She felt the person sitting on the edge of the bed, right next to her. She then felt the person's hand stroking her hair so slightly. She knew who the person was. She then felt the person kissing her forehead. "I'll see you tomorrow." The voice said. She heard the person walking out of the room, closing the door so slightly. Hana then fell asleep, dreaming a happy memory once more.

Hana was training, under Tetheus' guidance. She was learning the "Black Dragon Blade", a very special skill that has the power of the Black Dragon Officer himself. She learned the other officer's and knight's spell, it was that the Black Dragon Officer's magic was very difficult to control. It kept consuming most of her energy, no matter how hard she tried to focus. When she hit a target with the special move, she dropped to her knees, exhausted from the energy she gave. Tetheus kneeled infront of her, rubbing her back gently. "Let's take a break for now." Tetheus said. Tetheus stood up, then offer his hand to Hana. She took the hand and lets him help her up. They sat near a lilac tree. Hana leaned her head against the bark of the tree, closing her eyes. She then heard someone coming. It turned out to be Alfeegi. "You okay? You don't look good." Alfeegi asked. Hana nodded. "I'm fine, just exhausted from training is all." Hana said. She then suddenly heard a light thundering sound. Rain was coming towards the castle. They soon headed inside. "I'll tell his majesty about your progress. We'll continue the training another day." Tetheus said. Hana nodded.

Hana's face turned a bright red when she sat on the couch. She then remember what her brother said to her. "You have a fever again? Don't push yourself so hard. You don't have to waste all of your energy to prove that you're the best for everyone. Take a step at a time, and take a break if you need to. It's okay." Jason's voice said. Hana then felt her head resting on something soft, feeling someone stroking her hair. She opened her eyes and saw her head resting on Ruwalk's lap, stroking her hair so slightly. She stares at him. He smiled gently. She tried to sit up, but laid her head back down. "Easy...don't move much." Ruwalk said. Hana wondered how long she was sleeping, and Ruwalk knew what she was thinking. "It was only for a couple hours." Ruwalk said. Hana sighed.

Hana then felt herself being carried. Hana saw Ruwalk carrying her. She rest her head against his shoulder. Ruwalk smiled. "...thank you" Hana whispered. Ruwalk gave her a soft kiss. Hana smiled and rest her forehead against his. They suddenly heard someone clearing their throat. It was Alfeegi. Hana and Ruwalk gulped slightly. "...hi." Ruwalk said. "What are you two doing?" Alfeegi asked. "I-It's not what it looks like! I-I-I can explain!" Ruwalk said. Alfeegi stares at Hana. She looks away slightly. He noticed that her face was still red. "Do you have a fever, Hana?" Alfeegi. Hana sighed. "...I keep pushing myself to hard." Hana said. He sighed. "Don't let me catch you two in the hallways like this again." Alfeegi said. "Yes, sir." Ruwalk and Hana said. Alfeegi walked pass them to somewhere they don't know. "...that was scary." Hana said. "You have no idea." Ruwalk said. Ruwalk then carried Hana to her room. He sat her down on her bed. He then kissed her on her lips. Hana returned the kiss. They soon pulled away and stared at each other. "Stay here and get some rest. You deserve it." Ruwalk said. Hana smiled and closed her eyes. Ruwalk smiled and left Hana alone in peace. A couple of days later, she felt a disturbance. She looked outside and was shocked. It was demons, attacking the castle. She grasps her sword and headed out to the castle grounds, to help out the castle defend from demons.
