AN:Thanx for the reviews ^__^. Enjoy!! ^_____^

where we left off:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hitomi was getting that bad feeling again. It might have been because Yukari, Lyra and Amano were there but she couldn't be sure. "Hitomi, maybe we should be getting to the castle. It IS getting dark you know." Merle pointed out. Hitomi nodded and pulled Van's arm. He and Amano were STILL staring at each other. "Uh what? Hitomi what is it?" Van asked. He looked worried. "Van why don't we all go to the castle now? I'm really getting that bad feeling out here in the dark......" Van nodded. "Amano, Yukari and Lyra we're gonna go to the castle now ok?" Hitomi asked the group. "Ok." The three said together. They set off for the castle, Lyra and Yukari still staring open-mouthed at Merle. Oh Brother Hitomi thought. It was getting cold. She shivered and felt Van's arm around her. She curled up against him as they walked.

Kali sniffed the air. She was close. She ran to the bushes and stopped. She stared at Van and Hitomi and the rest. Hmmm. They're almost to the castle. We will get them as they sleep. She heard a rustling behind her. "Who's there?" She asked whispering. A figure stepped out of the brush. Kali gasped."Y-You! Why did you abandon me at the most important time??!!?!?" She whispered. The figure stepped into view. It was a cat-boy around Merle's age. "Moros, why did you desert me? It was our chance!!" She whispered loudly. "Shush or they will hear you. I had to. If your sister had seen me I would have been killed by HIM. The girl, Hitomi, saw us in a vision, but she could not tell exactly how we looked." Kali was surprised by this. The girl was pyschic? Unbelivable. "Moros we have to move quickly!!" She muttered. Kali was getting angry. Moros saw this. "Kali. Calm down. We will get them when they are asleep." Kali nodded and turned around and watched the retreating figures disappear in the darkness.

Hitomi was about to fall asleep. The castle finally came into view. "Oh Van. I'm so tired." Hitomi muttered. Van smiled and picked her up in his arms. "I'll carry you to your room Hitomi, all right?" He asked. Hitomi nodded and nestled her head against Van's chest. Amano watched all this and his hopes fell. Hitomi does love him. I should have known. I wonder if Yukari would like to go out with me...... Amano thought. They neared the castle and with each step each grew more tired. Lyra was the only one who was truly awake. She was taking in the scenery. To Van it seemed like she knew the place. It was creepy. He shook his head. They walked into the castle. "Van-Sama? I'm going to my room, ok? Lyra you can sleep in my room ok?" Merle said. Lyra nodded and went over to Merle. "Merle why don't you show Amano and Yukari to the empty room besides yours? They can sleep there." Amano looked over at Yukari and both shrugged. They really didn't much care. Merle led the 3 to the other end of the castle. Van walked towards his room. Hitomi was curled up in his arms fast asleep. "Hitomi you can sleep in my room." He whispered to her. He opened the door and gently placed her on the bed. He kissed her forehead and then lay next to her. He kissed her on the cheek and pulled the covers over her. He turned onto his back and stared at the ceiling. He turned back to Hitomi and hugged her one more time. Then he fell asleep like that, holding Hitomi in an intimate embrace.

********Hitomi's Dream*********
Hitomi stood on a desolute cliff. Where am I? "Van? Merle? Is anyone there?" She yelled. She was getting scared. "Hello?" She said in a meak voice. She was getting very cold. A noise! Right behind her. She turned around but there was no one there. "Beware the 2 who seek the Light Stone......." A voice filled the eerie silence. Hitomi whisked around but no one was there. "What? Who's there? Please answer me!" She said in a terrified voice.
"The dragonslayers will be back to side with the real Satan to find the Light Stone....."
"Light Stone? What's a Light Stone?"
Silence. "Hello? Is anyone there?"
Pure silence.
****************************
Hitomi awoke in a cold sweat. Van's arms were around her. She sighed and fell back into an uneasy sleep.
