Episode 8
"Guys I need to tell you something.... but
I want to speak to Gourry first." Lina said a few days later at breakfast.
Lina nodded to Gourry who stood up and followed her outside.
"Oh poor Lina-san. She's been quiet for the
last few days." Amelia commented. Zelgadis grunted, while Zangulus and
Martina dug into their food. Filia tried to pay attention to Amelia but
was distracted by a teasing Xellos. They were sitting next to each other
and he placed his hand on her leg secretly, not seen by the others. Filia
tried not to blush and sipped her tea to hide her face.
"I wonder whats wrong." Amelia murmured, caring
for her friend. Again Zelgadis grunted.
"Maybe she is dying." Martina remarked. Zelgadis
and Filia spit out there tea and Zangulus choked on his food.
"What??! Martina! How can you say something
like that about Lina-san?!" Amelia exclaimed. Amelia pointed at Martina
and said:
"In the name of justice, You must not talk
about Lina-san like that!" She cried to Martina. Martina looked scared.
"Ok ok! I was just saying the first thing
that came to my head." She said crossing her fingers warding Amelia of
like a demon. Xellos satback smiling and sipped on his tea. They all sat
up straight politly whenLina and Gourry came back in. Lina and Gourry
took their place's backat the table and silence filled the table. Lina
had a flashback
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Flashback*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Papa's a mazoku!" Lina gasped in a voice
not like her own.
"Yes... He is. His was banned from the mazoku
long ago. He has thepowers of a mazoku but he's mortal like a human." LON
told Lina. Linawas having a hard time digesting this.
"So that means..." The Lord of Nightmares
nodded. "Your half mazoku/human." She said bluntly. Lina swallowed.
"Your mother was a traveling sorceress like
yourself. She met yourfather traveling. When she found out he was a mazoku
she was devasted, becuaseshe fell into love with him. In the end he turned
against the mazoku forher, and was banned and they took away his immortal
self and he became mortal. You easily learn spells and easily pull of spells
and they are so powerful becuase of that. They aren't as powerful as a
mazoku but close." L-sama told her.
"How could they keep this from me..." Lina
whispered.
"Why don't you ask them that." The Lord of
Nightmares started to fade and Lina woke up.

Flashback~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"My dad is a mazoku." Lina told the others
bluntly, making them stop what they were doing and stare at Lina. Lina
explained the whole story.
"Ah that means your one of us." Xellos was
the first to comment. Lina glared at him.
"Wow I'm thrilled." She said with false happiness.
"Your half evil?" Amelia asked her justice
side kicking in.
"Amelia... please." Zelgadis said poking Amelia's
side.
"That means... your.... your... your evil
like HIM?!" Filia asked pointing to the mazoku sitting next to her. He
sweatdropped.
"You don't want me to talk, dragon girl."
Filia pulled out her mace. A sweatdrop appeared behind Lina.
"NANI NANI NANI?! Here I am talking about
a crisis and you all arearguing?" She slammed her fist on the table.
"I want some sympathy or a dragon slave is
coming up for all of you." She growled... becoming her regular self. Every
sat in attention like she was a general.
"Aw poor Lina-san. No wonder she's steals
from bandits." Amelia said with a sympathy like voice.
"You know I always wondered that." Zelgadis
commented. Lina sweatdropped.
"That's why you blew up my castle? Becuase
you felt like it? Just like a mazoku." Martina said.
"That deciving side came from the mazoku huh?"
Zangulus asked. Lina seethed.
"That means she half like that, that, that
nagagomi?!" Filiaexclaimed.
"Hmmm Lina that's cool." Xellos said sipping
his tea. Gourrysnuck outside.
"FIREBAAAAAAALL!!! Six toasted 'friends' coming
right up!" Lina said. She grabbed the food of the table and walked outside
to Gourry.
"You'll still be the same to me." Gourry said
with real sympathy. Lina smiled and actually offered him some of the food.
The burnt 'friends' walked out lazily with the owner yelling after them.
"You still didn't pay!" He yelled.
"Well Gourry. Time to go, ne?" Lina asked.
"Oi, Lina right as always!" Gourry answered
her.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hello Greater Beast." Xellos addressed his
mistress.
"Yeah yeah, whatta ya want?" She asked.
"Well first I got some more cigarettes for
you." He handed them to her.
"Oooooh Look at the pretty box ooooh cigarettes!"
She rubbedthem on her face in great delight. Xellos sweatdropped.
"Well that isn't what I exactly what I came
here for." he said scratching the back of his head.
"Well what is it?" She asked, opening her
cigarettes and lighting one.
"Well it seems that our dear Lina Inverse
is a mazoku." He stated. Zelas choked on her cigarette.
"Hold on..... Didja just say that Lina Inverse
is a Mazoku?"She yelled.
"Yes ma'am I did." He answered. "Well she
is only halfmazoku. Her dad is a mazoku and her mom was a traveling sorceress."He
said with his eyes closed.
"Well.... more of a reason for her to join
us. Maybe ya can get her to sign a contract." She suggested.
"Maybe! Will try my hardest, Mother er uh
Mistress Zelas." Xellos said stuttered. Zelas smiled and nodded, and he
left.
"One day I'll have to do something good for
that boy." She commented.
