A/N: Let me just say that even though I'm not getting alot of reviews I'm still going to put up this story because a freind of mine asked me to. This is for you 'Bri.

Chapter 6

Fanalia

On the walk back to Fanalia Van, Merle and Hitomi chatted.

"Everyone is going to be so happy to see you Hitomi!" Merle squeaked.

"Why?" Hitomi asked giving her a weird look.

"Please, you saved Gaea! You're known as the great seeress who saved us all!"

"It's true Hitomi, you're a legend here." Van explained.

"Wow.. I never thought that I would be apart of history."

A few minutes later Van said, "Here we are...Fanalia!" In front of them were two large doors.

A guard looked down from a tower and yelled, "Your Majesty! Are you alright?"

"Yes, I'm fine Que! I've also brought back an old friend of Fanalia's!" Van exclaimed.

The gates opened and the royal guards greeted him, Merlr and Hitomi.

"Who might this old friend be Your Majesty?" Que asked.

Van urged Hitomi forward and said, " May I present Hitomi Kanzaki, the great seeress from the Mystic Moon.

"She is quite the beauty, my Lord." Que said taking her hand and kissing it lightly. This caused Hitomi to bllush, Merle to suppress a giggle and Van to stiffen.

"Of course she is. Did you expect any less?" Van said taking Hitomi's hand from Que's. She looked at him a little flustered. He just smiled and led her through the city towards the castle.

As Merle walked up to Que he said, "The king likes this girl?" Merle only nodded. "It's about time." was all Que said as he watched the young couple walk away into the distance.

Chapter 7

Astoria

Celena had been incredibly bored. Her brother, Allen had been running around all day. He had decided to take a sudden trip to Fanalia to visit the king there. Celena had been surprised by Allen's abruptness. He wouldn't even send a message ahead of them to inform the country of their coming, which Celena thought to be quite rude. She was also very excited though to meet the young king. She had herad of Van de Vanel and his adventures with her brother and a mysterious young woman from the Myastic Moon.

"Come on Allen, tell me why you've been so flustered." Celena prodded.

"I wish to question the king about something, that's all." Allen replied calmly.

"Really?! Wow! I always thought that you and King Van weren't on very good terms."

Allen looked at his sister with disbelieve, but he couldn't deny it. Van and himself never really were as good a friends as people thought. And it all had to do with her...Hitomi...the girl from the Mystic Moon. She had won the hearts of both men. Although Allen denied it, he really did feel for her. But she got over him and turned to Van, who actually truly loved her. Problem was, he was having trouble saying so. Since he wouldn't, she left.

*But did she come back?* Allen had been outside his and Celena's house when he saw the column of light.

"Come on Celena, we're leaving." Allen called from teh carriage.

"Why can't we ride horses?" Celena mummbled.

"Look if I have to ride in this stuffy thing, then so do you."

Celena grummbled something about wishing that she were a guy, then she wouldn't have to worry about being "lady-like". It scared Allen a little to hear his sister say this considering that she once was a boy, Dilandou.

"Come on, hurry up." Allen said brushing off her comment.

"Fine..." was all she said.
