Part 3:
Part 3: Dilandau's Recession
Author's notes: Hey everybody,
thanks for your reviews and support so far! Gomen that this took
so long to get up; I was kinda stumped on how to get this chapter
going. But to a little help from my friend Jeanette(hey Netty!),
I got an idea. (And no, Jeanette, it has nothing to do with the
fact that cartoons don't age.) Celena's eyes are blue, aren't
they? I hope so.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Celena slumped against the tree
trunk. Her headache was getting worse. 'Oh fantastic,' she
thought, 'just what I need. A migraine.' Rubbing her temples, she
closed her eyes, hoping that it would help the pain subside a
little. It did nothing; her headache only got worse. It burned
through her body; making every bit of her sore, especially when
she touched anything. She wished she had wings like a Draconian
so she could fly up high and not feel so sore. To fly away from
the pain, it was almost too much to ask.
It was too much to ask. The
burning sensation grew to an extreme.
"Do you feel it,
Celena?" She opened her eyes. That voice again. "Do you
feel the fire?" it asked. The burning within her grew
stronger and more and more painful. She was losing control; it
was a struggle to keep breathing. She couldn't take the pain
anymore; her eyes rolled back into her head and........

Allen sat in his study, talking
with his most trusted crewman, Gadeth. "I'm worried about
her, Gadeth. What if Dilandau resurfaces? She could be executed
as a war criminal. I might lose her...again."
"I don't think yoiu need
to worry about execution right now, boss."
"What do you mean?"
Gadeth pointed out the window. Allen walked over and looked out.
It was just Celena, sitting under a tree, and......"Oh
God." Allen dashed out of the room with Gadeth following
close behind him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By the time they reached the
tree, Celena had stopped convulsing, and was now laying flat, if
not haphazardly, on the ground. She stirred slowly, and Allen
cradled her in his arms. Her eyes slowly opened, and one of them
was garnet, the other blue. Allen breathed a sigh of relief, his
sister was regaining control. Slowly, but she was undoubtedly
becoming dominant again.
"Allen....?"
"Sssshhhh, Celena.
Everything's going to be fine." 'Finally,' he added
silently, to himself.
