Chapter 9: The Dream
Gigi dragged on as the dawn's light shown over the horizon. The creature kept hiding and dropping the flute then grabbing it back from Gigi. Her eyes were heavy and blood shot. Her feet dirty and scraped from walking with no shoes. Her body ached from no sleep and no food.
The servant was still flying high in the sky. It dropped the flute again, but this time into a street flooded with cars. Gigi fell down on her behind, crying tears she had been holding in since the gang attack. "I can't take it anymore!" cries Gigi as her tears soak her PJ's.
Gigi opened her eyes to suddenly find the flow of cars had stopped. To her luck a red light had stopped them. She quickly ran across the road and grabbed up the flute. Gigi collapses onto the side walk on the other side of the road. The light changes to green as the cars stream back over the road. Her breathing is paced. Her face is covered with dirt smudges.
Gigi grasps the flute hard in her fist. "I am coming back Peter..." says Gigi as she pulls herself up. She took some deep breaths and put the flute to her lips. Before she could play a note, the servant swooped down and grabbed the flute from Gigi yet again. Gigi stared up in shock at the creature.
"Why do you torment me!?" screams Gigi at the creature in the sky as she tries to run after it. People stare at her as she runs on, paying them no attention. Gigi collapses again near a park. She cries again as she paws at the dirt. Her tears bring her into sleep that she has not had at all that day. Her pained body relaxed.
Gigi awoke to find herself in Peter's palace. She blinked in confusion. She then heard the sound of bombs falling. Gigi got up quickly and ducked for cover. The bomb hit and blew up part of the palace. "Peter!!!" calls Gigi after the bomb has hit. She hears another bomb approaching the palace. It hits and sends her flying. She lands hard in the rumble of the first bomb. Gigi manages to stand.
She sees Peter walking around a distance from her. "Peter!!" cries Gigi as she tries to run to him. He doesn't seem to hear her calling. He is faced from her. His attention on something else. "You will never see your Gigi or the light of another day again, sureibu!!" laughs a darkening voice.
"Yes I will!! She would never leave me!" yells Peter. "Oh really? Then how come she has not returned from her trip to earth?" questions the figure with a evil smile. Peter looked down without an answer. "Just as I thought!!" booms the figure with a cackle. "Peter! I am here! Can't you see me!?" cries Gigi over the distance. She runs more towards them.
"Now, sureibu.. You die!!" yells the figure at it raises it's hand. "Go and kill me.. I have nothing left to live for now," says Peter still facing the ground. "As you wish!!" says the figure as it brings a down pour of flaming bombs. "AHHHHH!!!" screams Peter in pain as his body is burned by the blazing fragments. His flesh tearing from his bone. The fire burned his bones as Peter's skeleton fell to the ground.
Gigi's eyes widened in horror. "NOOO!!! PETER!!" cries Gigi as she runs right into the reddening scene. Gigi looked up in fear as a fiery bomb was heading right towards her. "AHHHHH!!" screams Gigi.
She sits up in her bed, cold sweat on her brow. She looked around to find her parents above her. "Gigi! Are you alright?" asks mama with worry. "I was just... having a night mare that's all," says Gigi. "A police officer found you on the ground near the park!" says papa. "I think I was sleep walking," says Gigi as a cover up.
Mama sits on the bed next to her and puts her hand to Gigi's forehead. "You're not hot at all, your freezing!" says mama. "Get back under the covers Gigi," says papa. "But I have to catch my bus for the foreign exchange student program!" protests Gigi. "You can skip it, Gigi, your in bad health right now dear," says mama.
"But mama!" says Gigi frantically. "No buts, you may go on that later, we will find a way to get you there," says mama as she stands up. "Just rest now Gigi," says papa. Gigi lays back down, tired from the whole experience of catching the flute. Papa pats her on the head. "By the way, the officer found you clutching this flute," says papa as he lays the flute by Gigi's night stand. Gigi smiles happily at the return of the flute.
"Thank you, papa," says Gigi as she closes her eyes. Her parents leave the room. Gigi looks at the door. "Was it really a dream? Oh Peter I hope you're alright," says Gigi as she looks up at the ceiling. She picks up the flute. "You have caused me a lota trouble you little flute," scolds Gigi as she laughs afterwards. "Humm how am I going to get out of here? If I say too much longer..." thought Gigi to herself with a shiver.
She sat up and started packing a suitcase as a though came into her head. She suddenly looked up at her clock to realize it was the evening. Her eyes widened. "Oh no.." thought Gigi to herself. She finished with her suit case and pulled on some cloths. She pulled the suit case out the door and down the stairs, flute in hand.
"Gigi! Where are you going!?" demands mama as she sees Gigi heading for the door. "I got a call from the head of the foreign exchange student committee, they need me to come and they have a bus waiting for me!" says Gigi. "But you're not ready to go out right now!" says mama. "I feel fine mama! I will be back to visit soon!" says Gigi as she kisses mama on the cheek.
"Alright alright, be sure to send a postcard!" says mama as she waves out the door. Gigi walked out to the side walk. She pushed her legs to move her a few blocks away from her house. The night air was crisp and fresh. Gigi took a deep breath of the air. She sent her suitcase down and put the flute to her lips. She blew on it, playing a few notes.
She closed her eyes as the slow notes filled the silence of the night. She opened her eyes to not find the beautiful palace around her but tons of rumble and the remains of the building. Gigi's heart sunk in fear as she put the flute in her pocket. "Peter!!" yelled Gigi. No answer. She looked up to see if a bomb would fall. Nothing happened.
Gigi walks over the rumble. She looks around at the surroundings. Everything was destroyed. Gigi looked over to see a Naoru on the ground, the body was intact, but she looked dead for her face was white. Gigi bit her lip in worry. She walked on. She saw many a dark green cape that the guards used to wear. They were here and there on the tattered remains.
Gigi then noticed a dim blue light glowing from under some rock. She knelt to her knees and dug at the rocks. She found the dagger deep in the rumble. She looked at the blade to see it was crusted in dried blood. Gigi stood up. She walked on. The dashed out light she remembered was gone. There was no sky, only that of dust in the atmosphere.
"Oh Peter, where are you?" thought Gigi to herself as more worry over took her. Gigi took a few more steps when she noticed a gloved hand sticking out from some rumble. She ran over to it. She fell to her knees, knowing the hand is Peter's. She starts digging in the rumble.
When all the rumble is removed she finds Peter on the ground, covered in dirt, blood, and wounds. She shakes him with her hand. "Peter!! Peter are you alive?!" says Gigi in his ear. He didn't move, his eyes closed. His face was pale and his cloths were ragged. Gigi kept shaking him.
"Peter please answer me!!" screams Gigi as tears started running down her cheeks. Peter still didn't stir. Gigi's tears flooded over. Her cloths soaked once more. Her cheeks stained wet. Her eyes reddened with sadness. She let her head fall. Gigi's head landed on Peter's chest as she wept. Her sobbing was the only sound. Gigi abruptly felt a hand on her back. She turned her head to see Peter looking at her.
"Gigi... you.. Came back," said Peter with weary eyes. "Of corse Peter," says Gigi in a soft voice. More tears came to her eyes. Peter managed to move his hand up to Gigi's cheek. "I missed you so.. Gigi,"says Peter softly. "I missed you also, Peter," says Gigi as she ran a few fingers over a cut on Peter's forehead. The fresh blood got on her fingers. Gigi looked at him with sadness in her eyes.
"Who did this?" asks Gigi. "I finished... the yashajuuiki, and Kouchou came to get them. But he found they were fake.. And made them all self destruct in the palace.." says Peter slowly as he tried to move. Gigi tried to help him sit up. "What can I do to make you get better!?" asks Gigi. Peter shook his head slowly.
"I am going, there's nothing that can stop me," says Peter. Gigi's eyes widened. "No! You can't! Don't leave me again, Peter!" says Gigi. Peter's breathing slowed. "There's nothing I can do to stop it, Gigi," says Peter as he caressed his hand softly over her cheek. More tears came.
"Please Peter! We can get help some how!" says Gigi. "Just give it up, Gigi. But at lest I could see you one last time.." says Peter as his arm grew limp. Gigi' eyes spewed more tears. Peter's whole body fell limp in her arms. His eyes shut slowly as his face drained of blood. "No... no...NOOOOO!!!" cries Gigi. The darkening clouds of dust loomed over the sad scene.
Gigi dragged on as the dawn's light shown over the horizon. The creature kept hiding and dropping the flute then grabbing it back from Gigi. Her eyes were heavy and blood shot. Her feet dirty and scraped from walking with no shoes. Her body ached from no sleep and no food.
