Chapter 11: Unexpected Visitors
Rei was working in her flower gardens to pass time. She was down on her hands and knees planting new flowers and pulling up weeds when a large shadow loomed over her. She sat up and turned her body slightly to see who it was. In front of her stood a tall man wear a long black cloak. He had turquoise spiky hair and the same eyes as Van. Next to him stood a young girl about the same age as her daughter. She had shoulder length silver-blond, wavy hair.
"Can I help you?" she asked as she stood up to come face to face with them, although, she was shorter than the man and taller than the girl.
"We're looking for a few men by the names of Van Fanel and Allen Schazar." his voice was soft and gentle.
"And who might you be?" she asked suspicious of them because of their appearance. They didn't look normal and she thought that they could be their enemy.
"My name is Folken Lacour de Fanel, I am Van's brother. And this is Celena Schazar, Allen's sister." she still felt unsure of them but she led him to Van first any ways.
"Van," she called up to him. "There are a few people her to see you." both Van and Miaka turned and looked towards the door. Van looked as if he had seen a ghost. Miaka looked at Van who was stunned.
"Van, what's wrong?" she asked him in a whisper.
"That's-that's my, my brother . . ." he managed to say. Rei felt that they would need to left alone so she went outside.
"You're brother?" Miaka said shocked. Van jumped down from the Escaflowne and Miaka followed.
"How?" was the first thing he said to his brother.
"When Dilandau brought Ziabach back to life, I too was reborn." there was an awkward silence in the air.
"What are you doing here then?" Van asked still stunned.
"We're here to help you stop Dilandau before things get really out of hand." Celena said as she stepped forward from behind Folken. "But first we must get my brother, then we'll tell you our plan." with that said, Miaka ran off to get Allen. Once they were all together, they went inside the house and sat down in the dinning room. Celena and Folken then told them what they could do.
"Are you sure about this Celena?" Miaka asked concerned. Celena smiled and nodded.
"You do know that once this is done, it's done. There's no turning back." Allen said and she still smiled.
"Brother, this is to only way we can make sure he's gone." Celena said in a reassuring tone. Allen didn't like the plan but it was better than nothing.
"How do we know you won't turn on us?" Van asked in a cold way.
"Van, we really don't have much choice." Miaka said as she faced him.
A/N: Yes I know this chapter is short and sucks but I'm having probably the biggest writer's block in history! I know what I want to happen but I don't know how the fuck to put it in my story! Hopefully my block will go away soon so I can write more chapters. All flames can be e-mailed to me at sailor_cosmos71@hotmail.com . Thanks for your reviews Christal aka Yummy, Ami and Tika. It really meant a lot to me.
