Untamed Angel 6
Dilandau sat in his room thinking. *Miguel now knows about
Hitomi's wings; how will this effect everything, if anyone else finds out
that my newest Dragon Slayer's a demon?* Suddenly a distressed
looking Dalet came into his room.
"Lord Dilandau, Asturia's attacking the Vione!!" Dilandau stood up quickly.
"Tell all the Dragon Slayers to prepare their guymelefs for battle."
*30~minutes~later*
Hitomi looked around the field from inside her guymelef.
"So this is how it feels to battle as Zaibach." She muttered to herself.
She herself had destroyed several enemies, and Dilandau found himself stunned. *Who
could have guessed that inside that inoccent looking woman, there'd be a demon?*
Dilandau looked around for any other enemies. The Dragon Slayers were scattered around,
looking over the battle remains and occasionally destroying an enemy guymelef. Hitomi was the
closest one to him. Dilandau failed to notice the movement behind him, but Hitomi did. Just
as a large spear came driving towards Dilandau's back, Hitomi drove one of her cremeclaws
into the chest of the guymelef.
Dilandau was frozen stiff with shock. Suddenly, he could hear Hitomi's voice over the intercom. "What in the name of Gaea do you think you're doing?! You could have been killed!! I
thought that you of all people would know enough to watch your back!!!!" He smirked.
"Oh, calm down."
"Calm down?! You almost got yourself killed, and you want me to calm down?!"
"Why do you care? You're acting as if you were actually scared for a moment."
"Of COUSE I was scared!! Good God, you can be so confusing!!!!"
He watched her walk out of view, then a few minutes later, he heard her cry out, and the
crash of swords. Running over, he saw she was in battle, and he instantly recognized the
guymelef she was battling.
"It had to be Allen, didn't it." He muttered. He watched as she battled him. Suddenly,
Allen's guymelef swung it's arm back, and the sword sunk into the waist of Hitomi's. He
heard her cry out in pain, then fall to her knees. Allen froze. *It's a woman?!* He instantly
backed off and left.
Dilandau ran over to Hitomi.
"Are you alright, Hitomi?"
"I'm.........fine." was her reply. But she sounded like she was
struggling to stay concious. Dilandau quickly got out of his guymelef and opened hers;
Hitomi fell to the ground, too weak to stand. Jumping
down and landing beside her, Dilandau sat her up and shook her.
"Hitomi! Are you alright? Don't you DARE go to sleep!!" But she
paid no heed to him and slipped into unconciousness. Dilandau layed
her down and looked at her stomach. She had a severe injury on the side of her waist. He
looked up at the Dragon Slayers. "She's losing a lot of blood. We have got to get her back
to the Vione. NOW!!!"
*4~hours~later*
Hitomi slowly woke up. She looked around and realized that she was back at the Vione.
She tried to sit up, then realized that her entire chest and waist were wrapped.
"What.......what happened?" She asked Miguel, who was in the room with her.
"I'll explain later. Right now I have to go tell Lord Dilandau you're awake." Before he
could leave, she grabbed his hand.
"Miguel, thanks for staying with me. I wouldn't have liked to have waken up alone."
"No problem." He then left. She layed back and studied her stomach. The bandages were reddening where she guessed was where her wound was. The door opened and she saw
Dilandau leaning on the doorframe. She sighed.
"I'm guessing that you're going to give me a lecture about battling properly, then when I'm
able to stand angain, you'll give me the physical end of the repremanding." Dilandau sighed.
"You are amazing." He muttered, walking into the room. "You recieve an almost
life-threatening injury from Allen Shezar, Knight of Asturia, and act as if it was a small paper
cut, then when you regain conciousness, the moment you see me, you act like I'm going to
finish what Allen started." He shook his head and sat down. "I'll never figure you out."
"Same to you." He ran a hand through her hair, expecting her to jerk away. But
surprisingly, she didn't move, she just lowered her eyes and sighed.
"What's wrong?" She looked up, then smirked weakly.
"Nothing really. I just haven't had an injury this severe in 4 years. I feel like I'm losing my
touch." He laughed. She looked up at him, shocked. "What? What's so funny?"
"I can't believe you actually think that because you got injured by Allen Shezar, you're
losing your touch." He looked down at her stomach. "Does it still hurt?"
"No, not really." She said quietly. She looked up at his chest. "Did you carry me in here?"
"Yeah, how'd you know?" She smiled ever so slightly.
"Because your jacket and shirt are both stained with blood." He looked down and
laughed.
"I see." He stood up and walked over to a dresser. She then looked around and realized
where she was.
"I-I'm in your room?" He looked up at her.
"Yeah, why?" She noticed that he chest was bare at the moment and blushed deeply. He
noticed her blushing. "What is it?"
"N-nothing." She said, looking away. He pulled a black shirt on and walked back over,
then leaned over her, turned her face to him and kissed her. Her breath caught in her throat in
shock. she didn't move for a while, then after a moment, he felt her relax slightly, and he
deepened the kiss when he felt her wrap her arms around his neck, pull him closer and kiss
him back. They ere both too caught up in the kiss to notice the door open and they both
missed Folken as he walked in, watching them closely.
