Oh Together Again (3)
*~A White Rose Petal~*
A/N: the third chapter, longer than the others! I forgot who it was who reviewed saying that the chapters needed to be longer, but whoever it is you gave me inspiration to write an even longer chapter! Be very proud of yourself!
~*~
Summary:
Will we find out who the boy is? Where we figure out where Hitomi and Van are planning about going? Is Destin going to stay home and mope about not going anywhere? Probably!
~*~
"Who, Who are you?" Hope stuttered. Her captor took off her gag.
"Hope, we met before. Don't you know who I am?" Hope looked over at the boy that was a little older than her. His eyes were closed and he seemed to be holding his breath. 'Why would he need to do that?' She wondered.
"I don't-don't know what you're talking-ing about…" Hope stuttered. He grinned.
"Are you sure about that Hope?" And he laughed. It was a cold laugh, making Hope cringe. 'Who is he?' She thought. He looked familiar, but acted so different. Her eyes snapped open.
"It can't be…" She gasped. The boy opened up his eyes and looked at her. Golden like colored eyes meeting her brown and green ones.
"Do you finally know who I am Hope?" He asked her. Hope shook her head.
"It can't be you!" She said. "It can't be!" She gasped. He just laughed again.

Van and Hitomi were running to the stables. Hitomi put on some clothes that she still had from the mystic blue moon. She couldn't walk around in the court's dresses very easily, running and riding horses much less! Hitomi shook her head remembering what Destin was like just a few minutes before.
~*~ Flashback ~*~
Destin was running trying to find his parents who were running all around the house along with the advisors, the advisors wanted to stop them and let the servants and army take care of it. Destin thought that they should know better. 'My mom and dad would never wait for an answer about something like this! They'd go and find out for themselves!' He thought. He knew very well that what he thought he said was very true. 'What parents can teach you!' He thought sarcastically. He rounded a corner to his parent's room. He heard a small sound of crying from inside. 'Mom?' He thought he opened it and looked inside. He saw his mother looking through a shelf. She was wearing clothes that he never saw before. 'Must be from where she comes from.' He thought. Hitomi though, heard the door creak open and immediately turned around to see who it was. Destin saw a look of relief go over her face when she saw that it was only him. 'She must be really worked up…' He thought. 'I wonder if there's anything that I can do to make her feel better. Might as well ask…' He thought.
"Destin! What are you doing here?" Hitomi asked. Her son didn't look to good. His face was pale and his eyes were a little blood shot. 'I bet I look worse.' Hitomi thought.
"Mom? I was wondering…Is there anything that I can do to help?" He asked. He saw his mother's face get worried all over again. She took a deep breath in to calm herself down a little bit, it didn't work to much, before answering him.
"The best way you can help me Destin is letting me know that you are safe, I couldn't bear the thought of having both of my children in danger! I can barely bear this one!" She said. 'It's no fair!' Destin thought. 'Hope gets to do everything! All I get to do is mope around the castle with nothing to do!' He thought. He didn't say it out loud, he didn't want to make Hitomi feel any worse than what she already did.
"Alright mom." He said. Scowling a little, but Hitomi didn't notice.
"Thank you Dest, and listen to me now, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT MAKE PROBLEMS HERE! Understand?" Hitomi asked him. He nodded his head.
"Yeah, I suppose."
"Good." Hitomi got off the bed and kneeled down and hugged him.
"I love you." She whispered carefully, making sure her voice didn't break.
"I love you to mom." He said while patting her back a little bit.
"Now git to yur room!" Hitomi said standing up, trying to make a joke to lighten up the atmosphere. Destin smiled but it didn't reach eyes.
"Alright, bye mom."
"Bye Destin."
~*~ End Flashback ~*~
Hitomi cringed at how it sounded. 'It sounded like we were saying bye to each other…' She thought. 'for…forever…'
"Come on Hitomi, we need to get going fast." Van said. Hitomi nodded.
"Alright." She whispered weakly. "Let's get this over with. Van nodded his head in agreement. Soon they were both deep in the forest than what each of them really wished to go.

"It can't be you!" Hope gasped.
"How come Hope?"
"B-Because…"
"Yes?"
"Why did you kidnap me?" The boy sighed and looked at his hand. He seemed like the awful mask he was wearing the whole time worn off with that question.
"Hope, you have to trust me! I REALLY didn't want to kidnap you!" The boy said. He put his head into his hands and rubbed his face.
"I believe you." Hope said evenly. The boy looked at her over his fingers.
"How come?"
"We're friends aren't we Glowe?"
