Anime Godess6: Thanks, I wondered where you went. Finding a lost love.

Fuu struggled to get free of the bony hand that held her. A pair of eerie eyes glowed in the depths of this swirling water. She couldn't even see her hand clearly, her vision grew foggier by the second and so did those eyes grew nearer. Her boot slipped off. The hand was still clutched firmly to her foot, pulling her down to the pitch blackness of this murky pond. Her hands flailed wildly, in a last attempt to catch hold of anything. She felt something warm and soothing. A gust of wind engulfed her. It glowed a bright green and white colour. As the two lights intertwined, the figure in the darkness grew clearer.

She had beautiful white hair that floated around her which was longer and straighter than Emereaude which had curls in the end. Her gray eyes held wisdom and knowledge even beyond her years. On her forehead draped a necklace in a symbol of the winds. Her face however was youthful and didn't look a day over 20. Her slim and petite body showed clearly through her outfit. A sliver sleeveless gown which hung over her every curve, accenting her body. Her shawl which seemed to be moonlight converted into water floated around her body. Her hands were shriveled and bony, it seemed to spoil her perfect image.

The circle of light glowed brighter than ever, than broke into tiny orbs of dazzling light. They floated over Fuu lighting up the water. She opened her eyes. She stood entranced by the sight in front of her. A beautiful melodious voice rang out.

"Fuu..." The blond hair maiden turned around.

"Galelyn. I am a siren. The siren of Winds in fact. Sorry if I scared you. Windam is my father. I am here to teach you, Magic Knight. Cephiro is going to be in war and turmoil again because of the people' lost of faith. He was so worried about you that he sent me to find you. I didn't expect to find you in this Dark Ocean, a place for lost souls. What happened to you?" she spoke her voice tinkling like bells.

"I...I......", Fuu couldn't bring herself to continue. She just stood there motionless. A tear glistened at the corners of her eyes. She couldn't say it. A familiar face with bright amber eyes looked back at her. She squeezed her eyes shut. I can't think about you. I can't, it hurts too much. You meant so much to me and yet you... I need you Ferio. I love you, why do you have to go away? My world is so dark without you. You are my light.

Galelyn looked at her. Then she started to sing as it was what she did best.

"I can see the first leaf fallin'

Its all yellow and dazzling

It's so.. very cold outside

like the way I am feeling inside.

I'll miss you much, miss you much.

Outside, its now raining

and tears are falling from my eyes.

why did it have happen?

I would not have so much pain then.

I'll miss you much, miss you much.

I felt your arms, warm like fire.

When I open my eyes you are gone.

Missing you hurts so much."

Fuu's tears flowed freely down her cheeks.. She let loose of all the emotion she felt. Galelyn removed her gloves. They floated down to the endless debris. She had flippers which was also beautiful a pearly white colour. She placed an comforting arm over Fuu. They both smiled.
Galelyn then started, " I'm going to teach you Shadow Gale, an attack which enables you to be immune from all other attacks and reflects the attack back at your attacker. First focus your thoughts on your heart then concentrate on how you want it to work. Then-"

Soon Fuu learnt Shadow Gale, Tornado of Light, Green Storm and Healer's Swirl. Galelyn was impressed at her speed of learning. She pondered for a moment then glanced at Fuu.

"You might not want to learn this. It is so powerful that only a few actually attain this. Out of that few even less masters it. This is known as the Phoenix's Flight." she began uncertainly.

"I am willing to try.", answered Fuu. She didn't have anything to lose.

"Some die trying! Are you sure?" probed Galelyn anxiously.

" Did you think that when I was asked to save Unmei I actually spent time thinking about my decision? Yes, and don't ask me again."

Ferio stared at the sleeping girl in shock. He had felt something wet on his arm. Fuu! She was crying. Still motionless, yet crying. He tried to dry her tears. His shirt was pretty wet when he was done. Umi and Hikaru burst in.

"Hi Ferio! How's she?" asked both of them together.

"Okay. Hikaru, Umi do you know how she got this scar?" asked an exhausted Ferio. His bright eyes lost some of its sparkle. His face seemed to have aged a year in a couple of days.

Umi looked plain confused while Hikaru looked guilty.

The red hair knight confessed, "One day thieves stole her bag. There wasn't any money in there yet she went to chase them and one of them took a knife and ...and."

"WHAT!" exclaimed Umi and Ferio.

"She was sent to a hospital still clutching her bag and was discharged that day. Even her parents didn't know this. I think it hurts for her to move too much. She didn't tell me but I could see."

"Why didn't you tell me?" complained Umi.

"What..what was in the bag ?" stuttered Ferio, thunderstruck.

"The earrings you gave her Ferio. What else do you think it was? Umi she was going to tell you on the last visit to the Tokyo Tower." Hikaru spoke softly and clearly.

Then she walked over and held Fuu's hand. "She didn't want anyone to be worried. She wouldn't have told me if I didn't see her in the hospital. A friend of mine found her and brought her there."

"Her heart broke when she saw Patricia, Ferio. Do you know that? She even threw away the earrings she risked her life for." Her ruby eyes looking through him.

Umi hugged Fuu. You silly girl. Why are you always like that? Fight for what you want!

They left and Ferio stood there like a statue, rooted to the spot. Unable to believe what he just heard.
