Sorry, I think that either most or all of the remaining chapters will be short...

But please, enjoy the ending bits!


Hitomi watched as Folken and Van took wing to go after Kuro. She smiled as he seemed to be light on the wind and was soon out of sight. Allen took the girls and headed towards Fanelia, the blonde man glaring towards the horizon. "I'll hunt him to the ends of Gaea if I have to. He will be brought back to be executed, even if I have to injure him permanently to do so."

"Allen, he just wants to escape from all this, it isn't his fault, he was hired because he looked like Van, that's all," Hitomi reasoned, knowing she was right because of the conversation she'd had with the Japanese/Gaean boy.

"He has no remorse for what he did and I don't care what it takes, Hitomi. He deserves death because of his crimes," Allen insisted. "I won't let him get away."

Merle looked at how desperate Hitomi seemed, as if she knew something that the rest of them didn't. Did she have a vision about this? Was Van or Folken going to get hurt in a fight with the imposter? Only time would tell, since Hitomi didn't seem to be sharing.


Okay, what did you think?
