Legend of the Chosens~ Chapter 3
Damien studied the picture of his past Hermoine, gazing at the light pools of purple. He grinned at the memory of her faint smile. "My dearest Hermoine.. I almost wish I didn't kill you, but why you did marry that trash? What did he have that I didn't?"
"He had heart, Damien. He was kind and compassionate to all, unlike you.."
Damien spun around, his eyes falling upon Hermoine's sister. Her flaming red hair fell freely from her shoulders, her golden red eyes shining brightly around the dark atmosphere. Her maroon dress swept across the floor.
"Neveya, how nice to see you again. Still in love with that Charles I see. Anyway, I still applaud you for betraying your sister. Giving away the royal family's weakness, VERY impressive!"
Neveya sneered. "Shut up. I just wanted to kill her, not Charles!! Charles was perfect…. His eyes.. his body.-
"Oh do be quiet! I don't care what he looks like, just as long as he's dead…" Damien snapped, walking out of the room.
Neveya sighed, watching him leave the room. She grabbed the photo of Hermoine, and blew it to pieces. "How dare you sister.. I adored you.. but you married HIM!!! You knew I loved him.. why??"
Flashback:
16 year old Neveya brushed her hair back into a low ponytail, hoping that the boy Charles would for once notice her. "It's gotta be perfect. I know he'll notice me this time!"
"Hello Nevy! How are you?" Hermoine asked. Neveya grinned. "I'm great!!!"
Hermoine flashed her famous smile, and pushed her long, light orange hair over her shoulder. Neveya wished she were her sister. She prayed for her sister's body, her brains, her hair, her eyes, her everything!
"Nev? What's wrong?" Her sister asked. Neveya blinked. "Excuse me? Oh! I'm sorry! Just been thinking!" Her sister nodded. "Okay, well, I'm going to go to my next class okay? Bye!"
Neveya waved her goodbye, but saw her stop at the end of the hall. A strapping, young man grabbed her around the waist, kissing her gently. Hermoine giggled as she was set down, and hugged the man. He nuzzled her gently, whispering sweet nothings in her ear. Neveya saw Hermoine blush a crimson red, planting a kiss on his cheek. He stroked her cheek with his thumb gently. She saw the words, I love you, escape from his sweet lips. Neveya strained to see whom the boy was. The couple parted, as the boy walked towards Neveya.
She gasped, and looked inside her locker, hoping he would pass. She felt a tap on her shoulder. "Excuse me miss? Why are you hiding?"
She turned to face him, hoping he wouldn't notice the bright red that overcame her cheeks. He laughed to himself and winked to her. "Say, aren't you Hermoine's sister? Boy, must be a beautiful family or something. Hi there, princess. I'm Charles. Nice to meet you."
"Oh! Uhm, hi.. yah.. I'm.. uh.. I'm Neveya!!! Great to meet you too!" She stuttered. Charles smiled, his light brown eyes warming her body over. "Well, I've got to go, I'll see you later then. Tell you sis I said hi!"
She watched him disappear down the hall, both angry and mad at the same time. It's the first time he's ever talked to you, and he's in love with your sister!! She screamed to herself. She looked at the inside of her locker, the photos of Charles spanning the entire area. She then saw the happy pictures of her and her sister. She tore them out, an unknown fire blazing in her untamed eyes.
~*~*~*~
Still Flashback:
The newlyweds disappeared into the distance, leaving 19 year old Neveya furious. "She married him… I can't believe it.." Her fists were balled in knots, her tear stricken face red from crying. She turned to run, but knocked into a man.
She was about to fall, but was caught safely in the arms of the man. "Thank you sir. I'm sorry, I'm just not thinking straight.."
He remained silent, still staring at the path the couple had taken. A confused look crossed Neveya's face. "What's wrong?"
"He's wrong. That Charles guy… I can't believe he married my Hermie.. She was MINE!!! She was supposed to be my bride.." He stated. A chill raced through Neveya's body, as the same anger flowed through her own.
"I know.. she knew I loved Charles.. but she married him anyway… He was supposed to be mine… She will so pay.."
The man looked to Neveya. "As will Charles. Say, aren't you the princess?? Princess Neveya? You look just like Hermoine.."
The tears began to slip down Neveya's cheek. "Don't SAY THAT!!! I'm tired of it!!!! I'm Hermoine's lil sister, or, that girl.. no one likes me.. everyone likes Hermoine.. I'll be a princess forever.. Little Nevy.. I swear.. I'll make Hermoine pay.." She griped her fists even tighter.
"My name's Damien.. Damien Suiyatsu. Nice to meet you." He held out his hand, as Neveya roughly shook it. "You seem to already know my name. Neveya Almakashi."
"Seems if we each have the same goals here.. I'll keep in touch with you. And here's my number. Expect a call from me later on, okay? Bye."
She looked at the number closely before shoving it in her purse. "Don't worry.. I'll be waiting…"
~*~*~*~
End of Flashback:
Neveya crept through the halls of the base, looking for Damien. "Damien? Are you here? We need to talk- huh? What's this?"
She picked up the small box from a nearby table and looked through it's contents. Littered at the bottom, lay pictures of the new chosens. She stopped on the pictures of Garyn and Mimi.
"What's this? Hermoine?? Charles? Who are these people?" She pondered.
"There the children of the royal family you twit." Damien answered. Neveya jumped, startled by his presence. "I wish you wouldn't call me that.. I never knew Hermoine and Charles had kids!? What are there names?"
Damien walked up behind her, first pointing to the small boy. "That, is Garyn. The younger son. Looks remarkably like Charles doesn't he?"
"And that… is Mimi.. the heir to the royal throne. God, she is gorgeous.. I think I may be attracted to her more than Hermoine! Well… maybe not.. but look at that body-
"That's enough Damien! You're going to make me sick by talking about my niece like that!" Neveya spat. She threw the picture back in the box, and pulled out a photo of Matt.
The breath jumped from her lungs, her heart frozen in time. Those eyes, that smile…
Damien waved his hand in front of her face. "Seems as if the incredulous princess has fallen for the rebel." He jested. She blushed, and placed the picture in her pocket.
"So, what are your plans for getting Mimi? You know how us royals are so well protected, especially since she has that owl." She stated, getting off the subject.
Damien snapped his fingers. "Right.. that's the problem.. every time I try to get her she's either protected by her powers or that boy Friendship… Of course, I sense that she has the Silence Glaive now.."
Neveya choked. "EXCUSE ME?! She has the Glaive?! Well.. we're over with… there is no way we can beat them now! Whenever the future ruler has possession of the Glaive, they're invincible! Unless.. we find her weakness… or, better yet… the future king.."
"The future king? How would that help?!" Damien scoffed. "We can kindly ask him to steal the Glaive for us, then we'll ask him over FOR DINNER!!! You know we can't do that!… Unless…"
"Unless we find him, and hold him captive after he and the princess have fallen in love… that way, she'll have to give in to our demands!" Neveya gasped. Damien grinned sickly. "Exactly…"
"But Damien? Who is the king??" Neveya asked. Damien ran a hand through his sleek, dark, hair. "I don't know yet! But we'll just let mother nature do it for us…"
~*~*~*~
With the Chosens:
The group set up camp in the middle of a forest, surrounded by beautiful trees and a flowing waterfall. Jim and Izzy were going over technical matters of finding Damien. Tai and Kari were practicing different attacks, while Joe and Sora had fallen asleep. Tk sat by the water examining his katana, the faint yellow glow bouncing off his light blue eyes.
Mimi smiled as she stroked Garyn's soft hair, lulling him to a sound sleep. His body rised in a rhythm to his breathing, as Mimi leaned against a tree to rest.
The animals were soundly sleeping, except Aeyia, who was keeping watch. But the only one that was missing was… Matt.
He sat against an aging oak, the sweet tunes of his harmonica reaching out to the heavens. He closed his eyes to each new note, picturing all the happy moments in his life. His spiky hair fell over his face. After he played his song, he heard applause.
"Wow mister! That was really good!! Will you play it again??"
Matt jumped as a small girl jumped in front of him, her dark blue eyes staring him down. He frantically looked around, and was trying to see if the child's mother was around.
"Uh, excuse me kid. Where's your mommy??" He asked, kneeling down. The girl smiled. "She's at home with my daddy. I'm here to help you guys!"
Matt gasped. 'What's she talking about? How does her family know us?' "What's your name?" He asked.
The small girl held out her tiny hand and said, "I'm Saria! Who are you?" Matt smiled, and shook her hand. "I'm Matt. Nice to meet you."
"Great to meet you too!" She grinned. Matt couldn't help but look at her pink hair and… those eyes?? Hadn't he seen them somewhere before?
~*~*~*~
"Mimi? We've got a little problem here."
Mimi jumped at Matt's voice, almost knocking him over. "Oh! Matt! I'm sorry! Guess I was startled! So, what's wrong?"
Matt stepped back to reveal a small girl, who was an exact mirror image of Mimi. Mimi turned 5 shades whiter, as her breath froze in time.
"Hi mommy!! How are you? Well, I guess you're not my mommy now, but you will be in the future! I was sent me here to help you guys!" She chirped. The others blinked. "Mommy??"
Mimi got up off the ground, and looked the child eye to eye. "Looks a little like me.. but there is no way I'm your mom! Is there?"
Tai grinned. "Why, she's a raving beauty just like her mother." Saria blushed. "Aww… thanks Tai!" Tai blinked. "How does she know my name?"
"Easy stupid, she knows you in the future!" Matt said. Tai growled, his eyes flaring up. "Don't call me stupid… stupid!!"
"How do you know this, Matt?" Asked Izzy. Matt shrugged. "I dunno, just seems like it would happen." Izzy nodded in agreement.
"So, little girl. How did you get here?" Asked Sora, kneeling next to her. She didn't answer, but looked into Sora's eyes.
"Sora? I didn't know you were a Chosen! Mommy talks about you all the time! Well, I got here with a little key!" Saria suddenly yawned, tears escaping from her eyes. Matt saw this, and picked lil Saria up, placing her on a little bundle of leaves.
"Seems like your tired.. We'll talk to you in the morning okay? Goodnight." He whispered. She nodded, and drifted off to sleep.
The group stood spellbound. "Wow, man.. How did you-
"How did I see that she was tired? I've had practice." Matt said, starting off in the forest. "I'm going to sit for a while alone. Seeya."
"Whatever man. He confuses me." Muttered Tai, settling down. Mimi sat on the ground blankly. "She's MY kid? My own little brat to annoy me?? She seems to be nice enough.. but why is she here? Oh well… I'm gonna talk with Matt for a while."
~*~*~*~
Off in the woods:
Mimi wandered through the trees, searching for the blonde headed boy. "MATT!!! Where are you??" She called. "I'm here! Just keep it down a little bit, some people are thinking!"
Mimi drew back her head. "Well.. that was a little rude.." She mumbled. She found Matt sitting near a small lake, skipping stones off the shimmering water. She sat down next to him.
"Hey Matt… what's up?"
"Hey… nothing.." Mumbled Matt, not even bothering to look at her. "Matt?! You're being awful rude!! Would you look at me?!"
Matt sighed, and stared into Mimi's eyes. "There, are you happy now, princess? Just leave me alone!" He shoved. Mimi sneered, and sat firmly on the ground.
"Matt, I'm not going till you tell me what's bothering you.." She stated. Matt rolled his eyes. "Geeze, ever heard of privacy? Just go away!!!"
Mimi frowned. "Matt, you're being harsh.."
"DO I CARE?! Just… Go!!!" He whispered harshly, ushering her away. A tear rolled down Mimi's cheek, whimpering. Matt saw this, and stood up. "Ohhh… no. Not the crying. I HATE the crying… Please Mimi.. stop.. I mean… I hate it when you cry…..FINE!! I'll tell you.."
Mimi stopped her sniffles, and stood up with Matt. He ran a hand through his spiky hair. "Well, first of all.. it's just this whole royalty thing.. I mean.. you? Queen of the earth?? And that little girl is your daughter? I find that disturbing and silly! And I still can't believe Gennai is dead, and we're expected to save the earth!"
Mimi placed her hands on her hips. "And WHY is that so unbelievable?! Well… the daughter thing is a little hard to believe, I mean, that kid… is mine.." Matt laughed. "Ya! You? A mom? That's hard to believe!"
Mimi smirked, and hit him in his shoulder. "Stop it."
"Yeah, I know… but, back to the point… You! A queen! I've never known royalty before, and most of the time… I've never taken kindly to the government. But I'm a rebel.. and.. and you're a princess… I dunno… sounds silly.."
Mimi shook her head, and placed a hand on his shoulder. He looked at her with confusion. "Mimi?" She placed a finger on his lips. "I understand… It's a little weird for both of us.. But, we'll all make it together.. Somehow.."
Matt laughed, almost choking. "Uh.. yah…" Mimi smiled. "Well, I'm going to bed, the others may worry. But I'll see you in the morning.. night.."
Matt smiled as she walked away. "Night.." He watched her closely as she walked away, the way her hips swayed to her walking, the way her silhouette dancing in the moonlight.
"Man, what is wrong with me?? I'm acting like I love her or something.." Matt pondered, going back to the lake..
~*~*~*~
Tai opened one eye as Mimi came back to camp. 'Where has she been?! And what happened with her and Matt?!?!' Tai felt the jealousy reach to dangerous levels within him, driving him mad with anger. He smiled though as she drifted to sleep. "Why can't I be with you Mimi?? Why??"
~*~*~
Matt came to bed later that night, and set his bed up right beside Tk. He felt his gaze constantly shift to Mimi's sleeping form. He sighed, a sweet, loving smile on his face. He turned around to go to sleep, but found a foot.
"Get up." Ordered Tai, his body glowing a faint orange. Matt squinted up at Tai. "Tai? What's wrong with you? Leave me alone and go to bed.."
Tai growled, and grabbed Matt around the collar. Matt gasped, and glared at Tai. Tai's eyes of fire, met with Matt's eyes of solid ice.
"So, what did you and Mimi do? Don't lie to me man.." He snarled, getting in Matt's face. Matt's eyes began to glow. "Don't push me.. or can you understand what I'm saying through that forest of hair?"
Tai flared up, throwing Matt against a tree. He expected to hear a loud crash, but heard the sound of ice cracking. He gasped as he saw Matt shielding himself from the blow with a shield of ice.
"Cute… very cute… now, what did Mimi say?" Tai snarled. Matt laughed, his body becoming a light blue. "Why? Are you jealous? Or afraid she may not have the hots for you?"
"That's it. Your dead frosty." Growled Tai, lunging at Matt. To Tai's surprise, Matt disappeared from sight. He jumped in circles. "Where are you?!"
A Matt completely made of cold air lunged at Tai, some of him going into his mouth. Tai gasped, unable to breath due to the cold chill. Tai's head began to spin, but contained enough power to flare his body up. Matt slipped out of Tai, covered in sweat. He quickly returned to his normal form, and shot an ice beam to Tai. Tai held up a hand, melting the ice. Tai screamed as the ice melted into water, dissolving him.
"Oh.. oh, your gonna pay.." He gasped. He lunged at Matt, when a white beam nipped at his ankle, causing him to trip.
"Huh?! Who did that?!" He demanded. He turned to see small Saria shaking, tears falling from her eyes. Tai growled. "Well, if it isn't mini Mimi.. What did you do that for?!" He yelled.
Saria burst into tears, her wails waking the rest of the group. Tai gasped and tried to calm the child. "Whoa! Hey… I'm sorry.. I didn't mean to.."
"You… you.. MEANIE!!" She sobbed. Tai tried to wrap his arms around her, but screamed when she shocked him. Matt stood speechless. 'Had she heard their conversation?'
"What's going on here?" Asked Garyn. He saw the argument-taking place and cringed. "Nevermind.."
"What's the problem?"
The group turned to see Mimi, with a look of concern on her face. Saria stopped sobbing immediately, and clutched onto her leg.
"THEY WERE FIGHTING.. AND- AND YELLING, AND I… WAHHH!!!"
Mimi bent down and picked her up. She felt extremely odd holding her own future daughter. "Slow down Saria… or better yet.. what happened Tai??"
Tai sweatdropped. "Uhm.. just fighting.. a little.." Mimi cocked an eyebrow. "Why? Give me one good reason.."
"Because I love you?" Said Tai. The Chosens gasped, while Mimi stood starstruck. "Uh.. gosh.. I- well.. not the answer I was looking for.."
"Mimi… I need to talk with you.." Tai whispered, taking her hands. "Come with me for a minute.."
Tai lead Mimi off into the forest, leaving the others silent. Matt stood with his mouth open. 'What?! Oh geeze.. this is bad..'
~*~*~*~
Tai stopped at the entrance to a small cave. He ignited his body, making a light. "Ready? Come on.."
Mimi nodded as she followed him into the small cave.
~*~*~*~
Keiyanna awoke, wondering what the problem was. 'Courage? Where are you?' Keiyanna stepped back as Aeyia came flying over in a panic. 'Look what your stupid human is doing!'
She blinked. 'What? Hey, where is Sincerity?' Aeyia ruffled her feathers, and grunted in disgust. 'With Courage… alone..'
Keiyanna fell off her perch. 'WHAT?! I told him to stay away!!!' Aeyia cooed softly. 'You can't stop love.. he'll just have to learn the hard way.. Besides, Friendship is following…'
~*~*~*~
"I found this last night.. isn't it gorgeous?" Muttered Tai, pointing to the small waterfall. She nodded. She ran a hand through the sparkling mist. At the touch of her hand, the water began to flow a bright green, causing plants to root up from the rocky terrain.
"Wow, that was cool." Spoke Tai. He couldn't help but feel his gaze wander to her sweet form. His cheeks flushed madly in the darkness of the night. He blocked out the words from Keiyanna. "Mimi? Let me ask you something.. what does that bird of yours think of me?"
She smiled, and petted the small ferns forming under her touch. "She doesn't like you, and thinks you need a haircut.." She laughed. Tai frowned childishly, and stepped up in front of Mimi. "What do YOU think of me?"
"Well.. I don't really know.. we don't talk very much.." She whispered. She took in the grooves of his face, and his dark brown hair. She felt a warmth spread like a disease throughout her entire body. She stepped away from him, and looked towards the opening in the cave. "Well then, let's talk a bit.. here, let's start from the beginning. Hi, my name's Tai… Tai Kamiya.."
Mimi giggled, and held out her hand. "I'm Mimi… Mimi Tachikawa.." Tai smiled, his warm brown eyes setting off a fire in Mimi.
Off behind a large boulder, stood Matt. His breath began to pacen, while his body began to shake. 'What's wrong with me? I don't love her.. do I? I wish Tai would just go away!!' He thought.
Tai and Mimi both sat down by the water, as Tai snuggled up against Mimi. He nuzzled her with his nose, causing a laughter between the two. He playfully kissed her cheek. "I love you more than life itself Mimi.." He sighed. His body flared up on the inside, his heart raring to leap from its place in his muscular chest.
Mimi squirmed uncomfortably. Her gut kicked itself roughly. For some reason.. this didn't feel right to her… Her head screamed to answer him with a yes, his handsome features breathtaking for any woman, but her heart held back, unwilling to love Tai. Earlier she hadn't felt like this for him, but something set her off. "Tai… well.. I.." She stopped to look into his begging pools of brown. His eyes had taken on a look of pure love and lust, as if he had been dreaming of this moment for all eternity. 'Aeyia will be mad.. but.. I don't know what to say!' She screamed to herself. Before she had a chance to answer, Tai had leaned forward and connected his lips with Mimi's, setting off a pure, utter bliss between them. Tai craved for the sweetness of her cherry lips, as he wrapped her arms around her. Mimi was muffled by Tai, unable to give him an answer. His body heat spanned over Mimi. Her breath was caught midair in her mouth, the passionate kisses blocking away her heart. She laid a hand on Tai's soft cheek, as she leaned in as well.
Matt's heart shattered against the cold ground into a thousand fragile pieces. The tears welled up in his eyes, as his body went numb. His breath sped faster and faster, the remains of his heart begging to die aswell. He blindly ran out of the cave, letting the tears fall freely, as he stumbled around in the darkness. He collapsed at the base of a tree, his tears freezing before they shattered to the ground.
Mimi suddenly jumped, breaking the kiss between the two. She felt incredibly sick to her stomach, as if she had become contaminated with a deadly virus.
No Mimi.. stay away from him… he is not the one…
Tai jumped to her side, but she pushed him away roughly. "I'm sorry, Tai.. I- don't love you. I mean… I kinda do.. but.. this doesn't feel right…I'm sorry…"
Tai stopped, the warmness escaping from his eyes. "Fine. Be that way. I was sure for a second that you… felt the same way.. I've got to go.. see ya around…" Tai choked. He stared back into Mimi's lovely eyes, and grabbed her chin, stealing a passionate kiss before he ran out the entrance. She watched him run off, the tears trickling down her face.
"That's right… Tai hates me now… I'm supposed to be a queen… I'm so confused….. I have a daughter.. my life is over.." Mimi sobbed, collapsing to the ground. Her tears poured down from her eyes, while her breath became unstable. "What now?? I can't go back… I won't be able to face him.. what do I do??"
~~~
Outside, Tai ran through the trees, setting them on fire as he went. He cursed himself numbly, his eyes a blaze. 'I thought she liked that… I thought I had her… but why?!?!?!'
~*~
Mimi dragged her feet to the cold outside, her hair wet from the tears. She noticed a body curled up beneath a tree, it's body shaking. She felt the ground freeze as she crept nearer. "Matt? What's wrong?"
He gasped, jumping to his feet. He tried to cover up his reddened face. "Mimi! Uh.. I was uh… uhm.."
"Crying? What for?" Asked Mimi. She dried his tears with her thumb, making him give a little smile. He laughed. "Nothing! And don't do that! You'll make me feel weak! Girls aren't supposed to do that! Guys are…" He smiled, as he trailed his thumb along her face.
Matt felt an unknown warmth spread over his body. He sighed deeply as he became lost in the woman's eyes. "Oh Mimi… anyone ever tell you what pretty eyes you have?"
Mimi felt her face go scarlet. "Why yes.. but not from you.." They both stood in silence for several seconds. "Mimi? What happened with you and Tai?"
She sniffled. "It didn't feel right… I.. just don't love him.." Mimi began to cry loudly, clutching onto Matt's chest. He froze, not knowing what to do. He silently gulped and wrapped his arms around Mimi, letting his head rest on her soft locks.
"Well… I don't know what to say.." Matt whispered, trying to block the sweet scents of her hair from his nose. The smells crept up his nostrils as he completely inhaled her scent. She sighed at him, nuzzling her face into his chest. Once again, she felt a rush come over her.. not a painful one.. but a sweet, secure feeling, as if nothing would ever harm her again. She felt for once in her life… whole..
"Matt? How do you feel right now? As in, on the inside?" Mimi pondered. Matt closed his eyes and answered with a whisper, "Wonderful…how about you?" Mimi nodded in agreement. "Me too…" Matt spun Mimi around so she was staring straight into his eyes. They had become soft and loving, much like Tai's.. but this time.. it was different.. "Mimi.. you're very special to me..and I think…. I love you.."
Mimi froze once again, afraid that she would hurt another close friend. But, her heart leapt into his words. "Really??" She asked.
Matt nodded, trailing his nose down her cheek in show of affection. "More than all the stars in the sky…" Matt whispered into her ear. He cautiously licked his lips trying to hold back his bottled up emotions for her. He gently leaned into her brushing her lips, sending chills up his spine. Mimi smiled sweetly as she gave him a slight peck on the lips. He took a hold on her sleek chin as he leaned in more to the kiss. Mimi awaited the sick feeling that she had felt with Tai, but it never came. Her body rushed with emotions and heat as her heart beat penetrated through her chest.
"I love you Matt…" She whispered sweetly. Matt looked at her suprisingly. "Really??" She nodded, and went back into the kiss, as she wrapped her arms around the man's neck. "really.." She said as they both closed their eyes, giving each other passionate kisses.
~*~
Tai stood from behind the thick oak as his veins boiled to the touch. "I thought… she… was… mine.." He snarled. The tears evaporated from his flaming body. "I was sure she loved me… I… I.. thought she cared.."
"You thought she cared? Then what is she doing with that boy.. when she could have a man like you.. you seem like a kind of guy that can make her happy. He looks like a loser to me.." A voice whispered. Tai spun around to reveal a man staring him down. His ice blue eyes sent chills up and down his spine.
"Who are you? And what do you want?" Demanded Tai. The man chuckled eerily as he strode up to Tai as he pointed to the couple who was holding each other in their arms. "Hmm.. looks like you've lost. I think Mimi deserves better, don't you? Being a future queen and all-
"Hey! How do you know her name? And how do you know she's a future queen?" Tai interrupted. The stranger smiled once more and whispered an incantation as his body was wrapped with light blue and black streaks. His dark cloak was replaced with a black, light blue, and gray body armor. "I'm one of you… in a sort..call me Darien.." He grinned.
Tai cocked an eyebrow. "Okay… you were never mentioned as a chosen before.."
"That's because I wasn't with you all at the crash. I was in a different colony." Damien lied but Tai believed it.
"Really?! Well, hi there! I'm Tai. Pleasure to make your acquaintance." He muttered, going back to the couple. Damien heard the inconessent cursing from Tai, due to the couple by the lake. He tapped him on the shoulder.
"You're jealous… aren't you? Lemme guess.. she turned you down, huh? Tough cookies.." Damien laughed. Tai's eyes flared up. "NO… Matt just stole her from me!! Just… LOOK!!" He pouted.
"I see.. So, she really belongs to you.. To tell you the truth, I don't think they'll last long.." Damien looks towards Matt trying to contain his own anger. He and Tai both scowled as Matt kissed her again, his shocking blue eyes ravishing against the dark atmosphere. Damien took a second look at the eyes. Where had he once seen them before? Those pools of water just seemed shockingly familiar. They way the moonlight bounced off of them, the way they seemed so… innocent..
Tai looked to Mimi over and over again. She seemed so happy with Matt, but not with him. He noticed the way she melted in his arms like she was…. In love.. He quickly glanced at the stranger. "Hey.. what are you staring at?"
Tai traced Damien's finger, which was pointed to Matt's eyes. "Huh? What's so interesting about his eyes?" It suddenly hit Damien light a lightning bolt. "Look.. where have you seen those eyes before? Think very VERY hard…"
Tai's mind struggled through the different members of the group. Let's see… the only people who have blue eyes are Tk, Matt, and…
Tai's blood froze over. Rage and fright raced through his body as his breath stopped dead in his lungs. He tried to mouth out the name but found his voice completely gone. Damien nodded solemnly as he patted Tai on the back.
"That's right… Saria is Matt's daughter.."
Tai's hatred for Matt double ten times over, gazing at the lovers. "Mimi's future husband…"
