Chapter 5: A Calm after the Storm
Umi and Fuu stood in the crystal palace. Here no evil can get to or that's what
Clef said. They had to keep Hikaru and Eagle safe until the Magic Knight's and Lantis
were able to bring back Hikaru's life energy. All the people in Cephiro were here because
Clef didn't want them to become casualties in there war. It had been several hours and
Lantis had spend most of his time with Hikaru and Eagle. Umi and Fuu were checking on
the village people to see if anyway was injured. The also calmed them down so they
wouldn't start panicking.
Lantis placed his hand against Hikaru's cheek. She was barley warm meaning she
was slowly dying. Eagle was getting some of his life energy back by resting and soon
he'd awaken again. He stroked Hikaru's hair and a few tears began to slide down his
cheeks. "Do I love you.?" he said softly. What Zagato had said to him made him think.
Did he really love Hikaru or was he just faking it? Was he saying this to please her heart
so she wouldn't be heart broken. He looked away from Hikaru and then looked at Eagle.
Eagle loved Hikaru. He tried to protect her and even give his life up for her. She
loved him to. Was he getting in-between there love? Thoughts poured through Lantis's
head making him furious and wanting to run away from his problems. He buried his head
in his hands and cried. He didn't know what to do anymore all he wanted to do was be
alone and think his thoughts through. Maybe Zagato was playing around with him. Trying
to make him insecure.
In the courtyard the kids were huddling together in fear. The last time this had
happened was when Debonair had invaded Cephiro. Umi was trying to tell them
everything was okay but tears were in there eyes. Tears of fear. Fuu sit on the grass and
closed her eyes. Everyone watched her. "When I was sad my mother would sing to me."
said Fuu smiling. "Hey Fuu sing us a song." said Umi. The kids cheered. The loved it
when Fuu sang. She a had a beautiful voice. Fuu was a bit red and then nodded. She took
a deep breath and sang softly...
"I hold the light and the darkness of my heart Trembling while I embrace the
shadows Moving me apart I can't give up all the dreams that I have chased And my love
will be there And will come to me again with pride. When I look to the sunset All the
colors so beautiful That the tears fall right down Into the sea To the ocean of my heart.
Though the brightness of the sun Has drifted far away Tomorrow holds The sunlight of a
brand new day for me. I hold the light and the darkness of my heart Trembling while I
embrace the shadows Moving me apart And I can't give up all the dreams that I have
chased And love will be there And will come to me again With each rising sun I'll find
the future that is mine."
When she finished singing everyone clapped there hands. "See you with a song it
cheer everyone up." said Umi, "and why don't we play some games to pass the time." The
kids cheered and got up. The played tag and leap frog and a lot of other games Umi and
Fuu could think of when they played as kids. Soon the kids forgot of there worries and
had a good time.
"Well look at that." said Caldina. "What?" asked Ascot. "Those girls spread a lot
of happiness to others." she said watching them play. Ascot nodded and stared at Umi.
He liked it when she smiled. She looked so pretty. Caldina looked at Ascot she saw the
daze look in his eyes. She grinned and pushed him out into the field and he fell flat on his
face. "Ascot you okay?" asked Umi bending down and helping him up. "I'm... okay." he
gasped. Umi smiled and helped him up. Ascot was bright red but Umi laughed. Ascot
looked over to see Caldina but she was gone. "Hey Ascot want to play with us?" asked
Umi. She took his hand and before he answered the two ran down to the children and
played some more games.
Caldina was walking in the castle. She had a sly grin on her face as she walked
down the crystals floors. Then someone grabbed her hand. She jumped a bit but then saw
it was only Lafarga. He held her in his arms and so no one would see them he led her into
a empty room. He kissed her passionately and then hugged her closely. "Its been so long
since you held me in your arms." she whispered to him. "With all the battles it had been
hard to get a moment alone with you." he replied. "Lafarga..." she began but he stopped
her with a kiss.
Back in the Castle Cephiro Nova growled and smashed the place apart. She
couldn't believe she let them escape. Just then Zagato appeared with small black orb.
"What do you want!" growled Nova as she banged her fist against the wall making it fall
down. He floated toward her and said, "You have one hour to get them from the Crystal
Castle." said Zagato. "How do you know where they are." she snapped. "I know what
Lantis knows and all I have for you is one hour." he said softly. He handed Nova the
black orb and then disappeared.
Nova held the black orb in her hands and grinned. She had no time to waste when
she was there. She held the orb and then in a flash of light she disappeared. She
reappeared above the castle. She had no time to waste she had one hour to get Hikaru and
Eagle or she'd lose her chance.
Elsewhere in the throne room Clef stood holding his head in his hands. He felt the
dark presents again but it couldn't be. The Crystal Castle was a place where no evil could
be. Maybe he was tired or was he...
After spending time with the children Fuu decided to take a walk around the
palace. Thoughts fled through her mind and she didn't know what to think anymore.
Hikaru was dying and that was more then enough to think about. She didn't want one of
her best friends to die at all. What if she did and then the evil would rule Cephiro. Just
then Fuu bumped into someone. She looked up and saw Ferio. He looked down at her sad
eyes and before he new it Ferio had his arms around the now crying girl.
Umi and Ascot were walking down the hallway. They were going to visit Hikaru
and hope she was alright. Ascot shifted his eyes and looked at Umi's profile. She had
long beautiful hair and eyes that sparkled. She's an angel thought Ascot. Umi looked
over at Ascot and said, "Ascot... I'm worried about Hikaru... what if she dies..." she said
sadly. He took Umi's hand and said, "Everything will be okay just be strong." Umi then
ran into Ascot's arms and cried into his chest. Ascot held his arms around her and stroked
her hair.
Lantis looked over at Eagle he noticed his eyes were open. "Eagle." called Lantis.
Eagle shifted his eyes and then got up. "What happened?" he asked rubbing his head.
"You gave to much of your mental energy to Hikaru and you fell unconscious." he said.
Eagle got out of bed and looked at Hikaru. He stroked her hair and a few tears fell down
his cheek Lantis turned away and was heading for the door when it opened. Then there
standing in his way was Nova. "Hi... Good bye." said Nova with and evil grin.
