Untamed Angel 3



Hitomi walked through the hall towards her room, ignoring the Dragon Slayers that were watching her. Miguel, one of the Dragon Slayers, paused in front of her.
"Who won? If you don't mind me asking." She seemed surprised at first, then smirked.
"No, I don't mind." She pushed past, then turned around and walked backwards while watching him. "I won." Miguel was shocked, then laughed.
She smiled and closed the door behind her. She sat at her desk, leaned back
on the hind legs of her chair, then put her feet up on her desk, and closed her eyes. After a while, she set her chair backto it's original position and opened a drawer. "There has to be something to do around here besides battle."There
was a thick pad of paper in this drawer. She pulled it out and opened it. All
the pages were blank. She checked the drawer for anything else and saw a
thin, book-like pad. She opened it and realized it was a journal. "But who's is it?" she wondered out loud.Hitomi layed back on her bed and started to read:




Red, 26th moon

I've now joined Zaibach, dispite the numerous rumours said about Lord Folken. He hasn't done anything to prove any of them are true. Biore insists that I don't judge him on my first impression. All the Dragon Slayers are punished severly, but they still respect Lord Folken and would give up their own life if it would preserve his.
Raksha seems to be the one who suffers Lord Folken's wrath the most. He'll punish
her for things that, with the others, he would usually ignore. I have become friends with Raksha, Deje, and Biore. They seem to understand what I went through to get here. They probably went through the same thing. We're going to war in 4 days. I'm nervous,
yet excited. I love going into battle, feeling the adrenaline rushing through my body, taking the place of my blood inside my veins.

"This person sounds alot like Lord Dilandau" Hitomi muttered to herself.

Red, 31st moon
Several of our men are severly injured. Biore has a broken leg, Raksha has 5 broken ribs, Deje's chest is wrapped from a bad sword injury, and I had my back cut open, and my hand is wrapped from the middle of the lower arm to my wrist, which makes writing in here alot harder. But I'll grow used to it. My wrist may be permanatly injured. I'm hoping it won't, or I'll have some trouble handling a sword.

"I wonder if this person is still alive"

Green, 18th moon.

I've been to busy to further my journal, but things have calmed down. This will be a short entry, becuase my hand still hurts and we're heading down to the market in Asturia today. Lord Folken actually has become slightly kinder then before. I think he was nervous about our battle and took it out on us, but Deje says he's being nicer to me because he has a soft spot for attractive women. He knows how to make me blush!

"Well, now I know this isn't Lord Dilandau."


Blue, 23rd moon
This will be my last entry. There have been some strange men in dark cloaks wandering around, like their looking for someone, and it turns out to be me. I've heard of these men. They're sorcerers and some people even say they perform experiments on people. I'm not sure if that's true, but if it is, I'm the next victim. They don't seem to like Lord Folken very much, I'm not sure why. They're coming for me in a few hours and I fear I won't be coming back.

Celena ^o~

"Celena?! Who's that?" She closed the book and stood up, then walked over
to the desk and put the journal back where she had found it. She should ask someone about it, but she'd wait until she knew the people here better.
Dilandau was having trouble sleeping, so he left his room and started to wander around the Vione. He passed Hitomi's room and saw the door was
open. He looked in only to find the room empty. Then he noticed a folded
piece of paper on her desk. Dilandau unfolded it.

Lord Dilandau,
I couldn't sleep so you can probably find me
somewhere around the Vione.

Hitomi

Dilandau smirked.
"Does she honestly think she can wander around the Vione in the middle of
the night, and then correct it by simply leaving me a note?" He tossed it back onto the desk and left her room. "Now where could she have gone?"
*45 minutes later*
Dilandau entered the hanger of the Vione to find Hitomi sitting on his guymelef's arm and staring outside to the field they were currantly below. He leaned back against the wall, watching her with a smirk on his face. She stood
up on the arm of the guymelef after a while and jumped down, landing
smoothly on her feet. Hitomi walked over to the edge of the hanger and looked down. Dilandau unfolded his arms and straightened up. *What in the name
of Gaea is she planning to do?!* He watched as she closed her eyes and
seemed to be concentrating on something. Dilandau then noticed that she had
an open-back shirt on. *Why did she change into that? That can't be the outfit she wears to bed since she still has her leather pants on.* Dilandau heard the sound of flesh splitting and he watched in absolute shock as two platinum
wings burst out of Hitomi's back. Dilandau closed his eyes, shook his head and looked up at the hanger edge, but Hitomi wasn't in sight. He looked around, searching for her but he couldn't spot her. Then someone behind him cleared their throat loudly. He swallowed hard and turned slowly. Hitomi was
standing behind him, arms crossed, eyes flaring with inner anger, feathers fluttering around both of them. The look in her eyes almost melted his spine
with a knife-edge feeling of fear. He swallowed again and looked at her wings which at the moment were folded back. She fanned them out and he found
himself drawn to study them. After a moment, she said in such a hushed
whisper that he could barely decipher it.
"I guess you have discovered my true form, Lord Dilandau." she refolded her wings and smirked at the slight shiver he felt as a strong wind whipped back
her hair and stirred the feathers on the ground, as well as pull out others from her wings. For the longest moment, they just stood there, not moving except for the wind stirring at their feet. Finally he remembered to breathe and looked down at the floor. She refolded her wings and cleared her throat again with enough force that Dilandau took the hint and looked up at her. He saw the
anger in her eyes had softened and this surprised him. His eyes showed he was confused so she explained. "You're not the first one who has discovered who I really am. Many people have found out my secret. But I don't have to worry about them talking." She started towards the door. "After all, dead men don't talk." The tone in her voice let Dilandau know that if he let it out, he'd be
joining them. When she had entered the Vione and was out of sight, Dilandau
sighed.
"I can tell she is going to be a handfull. This will be interesting."
*The next morning*
Dilandau entered the training room and looked around. All of his Dragon Slayers were working out, except Hitomi. She was leaning against the wall the same way she had been when she'd battled him. Dilandau sighed and ran a
hand through his hair, then watched as she walked over to Miguel, who had
just finished and was sitting on the bench. She started to talk to him and he looked up at her, leaning back against the wall. She pointed to Shesta and
Viole, who were sparring, as if she were asking why. Miguel answered and
what she said next seemed to be a challange. He looked up at her as if she was suggesting they take on Asturia by themselves. He must have rejected since he was too tired, because she hit him on the back of the head and walked away. Miguel rubbed the back of his head and watched her as she walked around
the room, talking to the Dragon Slayers as they continued to train. Dilandau came over then. "If you're not going to train, you can at least make yourself
useful. Put the weights that Folken was using to train his men away." Several
of the Dragon Slayers gasped. Viole slowly approached Dilandau.
"Lord Dilandau, it takes 2 Dragon Slayers to lift those weights. Are you sure
she should-" Dilandau shot him a look that quickly shut him up.
"Fine, I don't care." She answered. All the Dragon Slayers stared at her
and Dilandau instantly became cautious. He was just saying that so she would want to train instead. She knew how heavy they were, why was she so calm?
They all watched in shock as she walked over to the weights and easily lifted
one then carried it into the store room. She came back out and grabbed
another one as if it were only 30 pounds, instead of 200. Soon she was
putting the last one in the store room. The Dragon Slayers all looked at each other in shock and Dilandau stalked into the store room. When he looked around, he was surprised to see all 8 of the weights stacked perfectly even. He
then saw Hitomi sitting nearby. "Now what, SIR?" She teased. Dilandau
couldn't find the words to express his shock.
"How-how did you...." She smirked.
"I started training when I was 4, also, since I'm Draconian, my strength
has been inhanced." They both jumped as someone cleared their throat. Dilandau turned to see Folken standing behind them. He motioned for Dilandau to come closer so Hitomi walked over to Guimel, who was lifting some weights. She stood behind him and as he lifted the weight, she got a cruel idea and started to tickle his sides. Guimel held his breath, then quickly lowered the weights and twisted out of her grip, laughing. She smirked, then looked over at Dilandau and Folken.
"When do you plan on training her?!?!" Folken demanded.
"When I have the time!!! You gave me so many orders that I'll be lucky if I can train her before she's 20!!!"
"Well, you obviously can't cope as a head Dragon Slayer if you can't handle the orders your given." Dilandau growled under his breath and stormed over to Hitomi.
He grabbed her arm.
"Come on."
"Where are we going?!!" She demanded.
"We're going to satisfy the SLAVE DRIVER, *glares at Folken* and start training."
