"Welcome, from today onwards you two are my chevaliers, listen closely to what Zess says and you will do fine, and also… thank you for being there for me, Anthony, Kujaku." Maila whispered tears in her eyes; she kissed their cheeks and then stood up, Zess pulled out underwear from her dresser drawer and then picked out a light purple dress with darker purple ruffled around the neck, hip, ankles, and wrists.
She put on her underwear and slipped the dress on, Zess zipped it up, Maila let go of her hair and it fell down her back and down her front, by now it had grown a few inches past its original length. Zess smiled and Maila giggled, she walked into the living room swiftly, dancing around kicking her legs playfully, the 3 chevalier watched her smiling and they played music, after a while it was like a party, they danced and had lots of fun together. Maila slumped onto the couch laughing and out of breath from dancing so much, after a few minutes she went outside and got some fresh air, the city was so busy and all the humans were bustling about. She thought back to her days in the zoo, at how Joel would always be busy with Saya, and then he locked her away with Diva, Amshell took care of them and soon became Diva's chevalier. Maila didn't mind but she thought it was selfish of her to take him all for herself; Zess put his arms around her waist from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. She put her hands over his and looked down, sadness filling her eyes, she turned around in his arms and hugged him tightly, they went inside after a while and Maila rolled up her sleeve. Zess hooked up the I.V. and Maila sat there on the window ledge waiting for it to be over with, she didn't like getting transfusions every few days, if she missed a day then she would have to make up for it the next available day, if she went too long without getting blood then she would grow weak. If she needed to she would drink Zess' blood then he would hook the I.V. up to her for the rest, she hated it but she had grown used to it, it had been so long since she had seen the Red Shield members, Maila wondered how they were doing.
"Ne Zess, Anthony, Kujaku, I think it's about time we return to the Red Shield, I'm worried about Saya-nee, and Hagi… I wonder how he's doing; I haven't talked to him since Joel's birthday party over 100 years ago." Maila muttered and took out the I.V. once she heard the buzzer, Kujaku put away the stuff and Anthony prepared a hot bath for her, Anthony took off her dress and then went outside. "Ah~, this is nice." Maila sighed happily and looked at the ceiling, "Saya-nee, won't you forgive me?" Maila asked herself and got out, she whistled and Kujaku came and dried her off.
"Maila, Solomon is here again, he wishes to discuss the matter of having children again." Zess said bowing to her when he barged into the bathroom; she turned over her shoulder and then turned fully in her underwear.
"I thought we already settled this, that guy just doesn't learn how to leave someone alone." Maila grumbled and slipped on her dress, Zess zipped it up and led her out into the living room where Solomon was standing talking with Anthony. "Ah, Solomon welcome back! How've you been? I haven't seen you in a long time, so how are you taking care of Diva? Is Amshell still following her like a puppy? Ah~ that man is always so rude to me." Maila smiled and gave him a hug, she kissed his cheek and talked with him outside, "Yes but not right now, listen Solomon, I must continue to fight, I've honed my skills and now I can turn them back into humans, but it only works if I have a certain item liquid. And that liquid is… my blood, it is the only thing I need, I have to pierce their hearts then with my song I make my blood do as I want, and then while manipulating it, I can manipulate certain components in it, the hidden 5th base is what I control, and then I revert them back by pulling the 5th base inside of my own blood and destroying it. Hey Solomon, after this is all over, I'm thinking of having one of my chevaliers kill me. I don't want this to go on, only Saya-nee can kill me, since I've already foreseen Diva's future." Maila giggled and he looked at her shocked, he grabbed her shoulders and yelled at her to live, not to die when it's over.
"Maila you can't die!" Solomon yelled, Maila smiled sadly and turned to the windows, Zess, Anthony, and Kujaku were standing there worried.
"Diva's future… she is to get pregnant with Riku's children, her blood will lose its poison and she will be killed by Saya-nee, the children look exactly like Saya-nee and Diva." Maila said sadly smiling at him, Solomon's lower lip trembled and she touched his cheek, tears streaming down her face. "This world doesn't need me Solomon, so I will be leaving forever, I'm sorry about this. Live on and protect Saya-nee, I entrust her to you… Solomon." Maila said as she closed her eyes and then fell unconscious, blood coming from her mouth, Zess rushed over and caught her, sighing and picked her up gently.
"I'm sorry, it is about time for milady's sleep, and she will come back in a few years, if you'll excuse me." Zess bowed to Solomon, Anthony and Kujaku walking with Zess to her shrine in which she'd fall asleep inside her coffin, being sealed away until she awoke once again.
