Episode 5
The trip back home was a sort
of quiet one. Martina, Lina and Filia weregoing over the things they did
at the resort excitedly with Amelia smilingfeebly trying to get into the
spirit of things. Gourry, Zangulus and Xelloswere boasting about how they
could beat each other in tennis with Zelgadisholding back a little. Zelgadis
looked over at Amelia. Amelia looked overat Zelgadis. They both turned
their heads away from each other, scared tospeak to the other.
"Amelia! what did you like
best about the Resort? The hotsprings? the beach?" Lina asked
"Er uh um I liked uh well
I liked everything." Amelia said blushing a little.
"The dance was real fun...
I was surprised at how well Xellos knew how to dance." Filia exclaimed.
Xellos over heard and looked over in his usual teasing face.
"There is alot you don't know
about me, dragon girl." he teased her. She ran after him with with
her mace and he quickly shut up and started running. Filia almost gained
on Xellos when she was thrown back by a powerful force.
"Uh oh...." Xellos slowed
down. "Xellos!" A deep voice said from behind them. The group turned around
to see a shawdow of a woman standing there. Xellos bowed.
"Hello Mistress." He said
addressing the woman.
"Why do ya stay here
with these humans?" Her deep voice made Lina and the rest of the gang stand
still.
"You are a monster Xellos!
You like chaos! Not hanging out at resorts!" She said angrily.
"I want to see some evil done!
And as for the rest of you. I'll be coming back for you... Lina Inverse!"
Her evil laughter echoed as her shadow left.
"Mistress?! Xellos that's
Zelas Metallium??!" Lina asked picking Xellos up by his shirt.
"Ah'haha I can explain." Xellos
said getting a sweat drop. "Later." He disappeard from Lina's hands. Lina
had steam coming from her ears
"One day I'm going to kill
you Xellos." She yelled.
"Fireball!!!" She threw a
fireball to the nearest tree followed with a freezze arrow.
"Ah I feel a little better"
She sighed patting her stomach
"Oh? I'm starving lets go
eat!" Lina said running off with Gourry on herheels and Filia, Martina
and Zangulus right behind them. Amelia and Zelgadisdragged behind.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"I'll have everything on
the left side and the back." Gourry told the waiter.
"Everything?!" The waiter
exclaimed.
"And I'll have everything
to the right side and on the front." Lina toldthe waiter.
"Everything?!" the waiter
looked like he was about to faint.
"I'll just have some tea."
Filia told the waiter politely.
"Ah so much to choose!" Martina
so looking over the menu.
"We could just get everything
on the right side...... each." Zangulus told the waiter.
"Everything?" The waiter asked.
"I'm not hungry." Amelia and
Zelgadis told the waiter at the same time. Zelgadis and Amelia looked at
each other and blushed.
"Stupid Lina... why did she
sit me next to Zelgadis." Amelia asked herself.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Flashback*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"I'll hey Zangulus come sit
next to Gourry and Martina you can sit next to me and Filia you too. Um
Zelgadis uh you and Amelia can sit in those twochairs left." Lina directed.
Zelgadis tried not to look over at Amelia butdid and blushed deep red.
He looked down so no one will see his red face.
"Well you can sit down!"
Lina said. Amelia knew that Lina thought she and Zelgadis should get together...but
she didn't have to make it so obvious. Amelia thought.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Flashforward*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Amelia blushed thinking about
it that she almost missed Xellos walking up.
"Ah tea please." He told the
waiter pulling up a chair.
"Oh I remeber you and the
lady from last time. I knew I saw you before."He said addressing him and
Filia. The waiter walked off with the orders.
"Er ah um Xellos what are
you doing here?" Filia asked nervously changing the subject. Martina and
Lina's eyes turned to Xellos and Filia.
"Hmmmm?" They asked evily
"Oh I remeber you and the
lady from lastime." Martina said quoting the waiter.
"I knew I saw you before."
Lina said.
"Er uh... I saw her here in
this town and She was here and I sat down with her for some tea." Xellos
stuttered. They let it drop at that but Lina kept a wary eye on the both
of them. Sweatdrops appeared behind Filia and Xellos's head.
"By the way Xellos.... Why
are you here?" Zangulus asked piping up.
"Ah well I decided to stop
for some tea, and saw you all here." Xellos answered.
"You need to work on your
lying, Xellos." Martina said.
"Ah the food is here!. EAT
EAT EAT!!" The waiter placed down the food and immediatly Lina and Gourry
tore in to it with Martina and Zangulus semi-politely tearing into theirs.
"No Gourry! That's yours!
This is mine!" Lina snatched a piece of sausage from Gourry's mouth and
gulped it down. Filia sipped on her tea. Xellos sat there with his teasing
grin and eyes closed drinking his tea, watching Lina and Gourry argue over
food. Amelia and Zelgadis sat there sipping on thewater the waiter brought.
Xellos looked over at Filia, thinking of a wayto tease her.
"Oh Filis there's a bug in
your tea." He said calmly.
"Don't think about it Xellos..."
Filia warned with her eyes closed crossing her legs sipping her tea.
'Ok something scarier.' Xellos
thought. "Filia... your tail is sticking out." Xellos said teasingly.
"Oh Xellos did you see my
new trick?" Filia asked picking up her mace, twirling it like a baton and
'accidently' dropped it on Xellos head.
"Oops!" Filia said.
"Ah I'm full!" Lina exclaimed.
"Xellos go pay ok?" Lina directed him. Heleft to go pay for the bill.
"Ah everyone ready? He asked
when he got back.
"Sure letsgo everyone!"
Lina said excitedly. Everyone got ready but kinda stared at Xellos. Once
they were a little ways from town Xellos asked:
"Why is everyone staring at
me??!" He asked.
"Well you let Lina trick you
into paying for the bill." Amelia spoke up.
"Lina.... trick...paying...
bill?" He finally got it as Lina ran off.
"Come on guys.... you guys
are too slow!" She called.
