Hitomi, Girl Dragonslayer: Hitomi Will Soon See The Unseen
Not everything appears to be what it seems...sometimes there's a hidden truth, so deep, so covered up...it wants out...
just like a trapped creature...especially when the creatures wants out, and it sees a small opening...It will try to get out...at any price necessary...
Lights go out and
I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Brought
me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead
Dilandau broke off the kiss. He turned his head away as the voice came back again. He tried to shake it off, but it kept showing him flashbacks. Pushing away from Hitomi, he sat on his knees, burying his face in his hands trying to make it all go away.
Hitomi had began to tell start to tell Dilandau off, when she notice his strange action. She quickly got off the bed and knelt beside Dilandau. She tried to touch him but he slapped her hand away. A mumbled "leave me alone." was all that was uttered. Hitomi had started to get some help. But was quickly pulled back by Dilandau's hand. She turned quizzically at him, but he made motioned of what he wanted. Against her better judgment she sat back down beside him and just waited.
Singin', come
out if things aren't said Singing, yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh Confusion never
stops Hitomi had never
been afraid, but now she was. There was something wrong with
Dilandau, he began to slightly shake. Hitomi was now becoming very
worried. She didn't know what to do, or who to go to. As she
blinked her eyes, she felt herself being jerked into a vision, which
soon landed her in front of the sorcerer Soren. "Soren what's
going on, I don't get it?" "It is beginning." "What is!"
Hitomi bit out frustrated, none of this was making sense. "Soren
Please Help me...Help him." Soren sighed. His
work here is done. He had visited everyone he needed to. "You will
soon understand, Hitomi." with that he was gone. Hitomi was quickly
sent back, only to notice Dilandau was not beside her. "Dilandau?" she
called worriedly. "You have some
explaining to do, Tara...or should I say Hitomi?" "But you-- "I am fine, a
slight sickness spell," Dilandau lied. He felt like crap, that
other voice kept pestering him, but he was able to block it...he had
bigger things to be concerned about then about a nuisance presence. Singin', come
out upon my seas Singin',
yoooooooooooo ohhhhhh Hitomi sighed, and
leaned back until her head was resting on the bed. She looked at
Dilandau who was now perched on a chair. What would she say...what
could she say... She than remembered her grandmother telling her that
all good stories have a beginning..."I was out running" Hitomi
began. Dilandau listened
intently as Hitomi spun her tale of how she ended up under his
command. He was surprised of how much she was able to stand, but not
let her spirit die or even be conformed to that of a different
person, by being taken away from a totally different world. He looked at Hitomi
closely...This girl got under his skin...she somehow had come to mean
so much more during these past few months than he felt for anyone
ever in his life... An awkward silence
passes as Hitomi finished her story. Dilandau opened his mouth to say
something but was interrupted by the sound of the ship's bells
signaling the battle cry. Dilandau stood up
and headed to the bathroom to get dressed. Hitomi started after him
but was cut off. "Your staying here." Dilandau shut the door.
Hitomi stared at the door in front of her in surprise. 'Stay here?
Why?' 'I have a right to go, too.' Yooooooooooooo
ohhhhhh Oh nothing else compares Dilandau hurriedly
got dressed and half ran out the bathroom. He was not shocked to see
Hitomi sitting there waiting, equipped with her battle uniform on.
She followed him out of the door as he went to the Vione to meet with
his other Dragonslayer, Jajuka. 30 min later Oh nothing else
compares Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh
Hitomi was steaming
mad. How dare Dilandau leave her like that! He had no right! Hitomi
replayed back the scene, still feeling the weakness of her knees. -Flashback- Hitomi was
stepping up to board a guymelef, when strong arms yanked her down.
She looked to stare up at two furious crimson eyes. "I thought I
told you, you are not going" Dilandau stated. "I am going,
whether you like it or not!" Yelled Hitomi, placing both hands on
the sides of her hips. "Don't try to stop me, either." Dilandau crushed
his lips to hers, leaving her with no comprehensible thought. After a
few seconds she was like butter in his arms, totally pliable to his
every whim. The next thing Hitomi remembered was her waking up in the
sick bay, the nurse telling her she had a fainting black out spell.
The stupid jerk, had simply made her black out. Hitomi sighed
standing up. She made her way to the balcony of the control room. She
might be able to see the battle from there. -Dilandau's
Alseides- Dilandau
sighed ticked, that he was coming on with a headache. He kept getting
these flashbacks, and his eyes would water ever so often. He kept
hearing a voice crying, asking for one of the most hated names in
Gaia Allen Shezar. He wished this
voice would shut up. Dilandau also wished
his other slayers were here. He glanced over at an opening in his
Alseides unit, and was relived that Jajuka was following him, he
hated being alone. -30 min later- Dilandau landed at
the port of Asturia. He could not wait until he battle started. All
that blood and fire, a maniac sneer marred his handsome features. He
loved fire and the sound of human flesh suffering, pain was his
forte, and he would deliver it mostly to his one sworn enemy. 'Today
Van, you will pay for what you did to my face' Dilandau vowed. Dilandau marched in
the line with the other units of Zaibach. He looked out at the other
lines, and smirked. 'Let the Battle Begin!' -Other side of the
battle field- Van glanced out at
all the Zaibach units. Today was the day he'd take revenge on
Dilandau for stealing the one he had sworn to protect, Hitomi. 'I'll
get you back Hitomi' Van promised. He loaded into his guymelf,
ignoring Millernia's well wishes, and Merle's tearful good-byes.
He softly smiled a lethal smile. Today was a day of reckoning, and
new beginnings...today was a day of death. Home, home, where
I wanted to go Hitomi could see
from her viewpoint that the battle had started. She gently closed her
eyes, and wished that both Dilandau and Van would be safe. Dilandau was having
fun, he loved war. He loved it for the fighting, for the killing, for
the pure skill of defeating a lesser mortal. He laughed as he
bulldozed a couple of Asturia's soldiers, He made his way deep into
Asturia's flanks looking for the one person that he was thirsty to
shed their blood.. Van fought
valiantly, taking pride in his skillful tactics of sword fighting. He
loved besting his enemies and he one to best one most of all. They both turned at
the same time. One Dragon of silver, and the other a Warrior of Red.
The caught sight of each other and both men smirked. It was time,
time to engage in the greatest battle of all. As they approached each
other, they skillfully cleared other soldiers out of the way. It was
as if time had stood still as they finally squared off against each
other. This is what they had both been waiting for. The time was now. Van charged first,
moving his guymelef at top speed, Dilandau not to be one that would
hesitate changed his Crima Claw into a sword. That is when they began
their dance. They blocked, parried, sparred and the same again. Over
and over, minutes flew by but neither notice. Both sides were making
leeway but neither noticed as they were wrapped up in their own
battle. Dilandau was tiring
quickly. Something was going on, that presence was getting stronger
and stronger...As Van made a thrust, Dilandau hesitated a second, and
in an instant knew he had made a mistake. As he watched Van's sword
come near him, he knew he had no chance. He closed his eyes... The thrust never
came. Dilandau cracked his eyes open to see, his dragonslayer Jajuka
standing in front of him, having saved him. "JAJUKA!!!" he
yelled. "STAY OUTTA MY
WAY!!!" he added. Jajuka turned to
him, his eyes frightfully scary...they seemed familiar somehow. He
led Van from him, and as they fought, Dilandau knew Jajuka was not
going to last. He screamed his name one last time, but it was too
late. Van was able to thrust his sword into him, to obliterate him.
Before Jajuka departed his uttered one last thing to Dilandau, which
set something inside him free. "CELENA TURN BACK
TO THE GIRL I ONCE KNEW CELEEEEEENAAAAA!!!!!" Dilandau inside him
raging. He thought of Hitomi, but something was pulling him down,
pulling him into a deep abyss. Van turned back to
Dilandau. He would know finish what he started. He raised his sword
to deliver a blow to Dilandau... Home, home, where
I wanted to go Van felt something
blocking him. He looked and saw Allen in front of him. "ALLEN" he
yelled, "What are you doing?!" "Step back, Van..." "NO, ALLEN!!" "Move Allen" Van watched Allen
look over his shoulder. "Celena!" "CELENA!!" Allen yelled. As Dilandau once
was...there now stood a different person. A person who was liberated
from the darkness. Celena opened her
eyes. "Brother! Oh Brother! Oh Allen, is that you?" "OH Celena!"
Allen cried. Celena looked down
at where she was. She didn't know what to do. Seeing a button she
pushed it. It opened up this strange machine she was in. She stepped
out. Van looked at where
Allen was watching. The Alseides opened and out stepped, a woman. Van
looked at Allen in surprise. "But-- "Celena" Allen
whispered again. Allen moved from Van and over to where his sister
stood. He got out of his guymelef and embraced his sister. He had a
dream, and a man told him he would find his sister today...and he
did. Brother and sister
tearfully were reunited. "I'm home Celena" whispered. Hitomi could see
from where she was standing that the battle was clearing up. It
seemed as if neither sides had really made any head way. She walked
back to the Vione waiting for Dilandau to arrive anytime soon. Allen gathered his
sister and his crew and they headed toward his ship. Van trailed
behind, still confused. 'Cerena was Allen's lost little
sister...how can Celena be Dilandau. More importantly, where is
Dilandau'? He would ask Allen tonight is this all about. Celena felt better
as she sat beside Allen. She couldn't remember what happened but
she was back and as Allen said, that was all that matter. I want my body
back Celena eyes widen.
It was that voice...she knew that voice. She closed her eyes,
trying to block it out, but it kept pestering her. What have you
done to me! Dilandau did not
know where he was but he wanted out. This darkness, this complete
obscurity was frightening, and most of all he was alone, he hated
being alone. Hitomi, was all he remembered, home...Hitomi was
home...and he wanted back there... Home, home, where
I wanted to go
Shoot an apple off my head
And a,
trouble that can't be named
Tigers waitin' to be tamed
Yoooooooooooo ohhhhhh
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Gonna, come back and
take you home
I could not stop that you now know
Curse missed opportunities
Am I, a part of
the cure
Or am I part of the disease
Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh
Yooooooooooooo
ohhhhhh
Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh
Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh
And nothing else compares
Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh
Home, home, where I wanted to go
Home, home, where I wanted to go
Home, home, where I wanted to go
