Aya layed comfertble on her blue bed. The lighting was so dim everything seemed to have a blueish tint. Sighing she turned over on her side. Sleep refused to come at all. Her new friends from of the Zeibock had given her a few outher dresses...along with outher things.
They were buatiful, yes, but untill she had to she was going to stay in her reguler clotheing which had been dubed by a few outhers 'The Mystic Moon Clotheing'.It had a certine sentimentle value, even if bad memmories were tyied to it. She fell asleep atlast, momments
before dawn. She awoke from her light, yet sound sleep at the sound of her door openeing. Sitting up strait she saw the same blound boy she'd met the day before.

"Chesta"she smiled slightly,"'morning."

He returned the smile, those same childish dimpls appearing on his face as he did so,"Good morning, Aya, todays the day to try out, here's a sword you can use."

He layed a sword in a sheath with a belt an all on her messy bed the sword looked simmler to the one he wore as well,"Thankyou, Chesta."

He nodded,"Its nothing really......"

He opened his mouth to say more but was cut off as the fortrass gave a violent lurch sending Aya to the ground. Chesta, being a little lucky, just fell forward face first onto her bed. Grunting he gave Aya a last glance then fled the room his hand on his sword. Wasteing no
time Aya grabed the sword he'd left behind and attached it onto her waist. Her eyes wide with confusion she two exsited her room. She leaned all her agenst her doorway as the fortrass jerked hard once more. Her eyes flashing determenation, she walked down one of the
two corridors. Her hand instinctivly resting on her sword. Licking her lips nervously she pressed agenst the wall as severel Dragon Slayers ran passed. Giveing her only a passing glance. She assumed that Dilandau had already informed them she was here and soon to be,
if she passed the tests, one of their comrades. Suddenly she turned a corner and saw a blound haired man with strikeing blue eyes, but a rather cruel experssion, holding his sword agenst Chesta's neck.

"CHESTA!"she shouted, unsheathing her sword as she did so. Chesta was the first friend she'd had in so long. Now here was this blound haired guy holding a sword to his neck! She sneered as she reconized this sort of treatment bestowed upon her, not so long ago.
"RELASE HIM NOW, YOU BLOUND JERK!"

The man raised an eyebrow to her holding the sword a little tighter,"Maiden, I suggest you go hide in room around her somewhere."

Angrly Aya raised her sword higher and took stance,"I said release him, now! You bully, let him go!"

The blound haired man merely snorted slightly. His phliosphy being that even if she knew how to use that sword, noone could be the Heavenly Knight of Calei Allen Shizare. In a fluide movement that suprised even her she attacked. Allen suprised droped Chesta on the
hard ground; Chesta, unexpecting this accdently, hit his head hard on the wall; knocking himself out cold. Aya's movements where a blur even to herself. She'd never even used a sword, nor any weapone in her entire life. Yet her she was. Attacking a knight who she knew
only for a few secouds. Yet, that was enough to let her know he was the same as most she'd met most of her life. She fought like one who had fought for years and been through countless battles. Allen found himself haveing a diffcult time holding onto his sword. This
girl, many years younger then himself, was the first real challange he'd had in so long. Suddenly Aya thought she herd a pain stricken yell from farther down the corrider. Distracted she turned slightly and didn't see the hilt of Allen's sword come down on the base of her skull.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Aya awoke groggly on a hard wood floor. Walls seeming to spin around her as she stood up. Closeing her eyes she shook her head gently. Upon reopening them she could see better, but the pain in the back of her head wouldn't go away.

"Wahh?"She murmmered as she suddenly got a good look at her surroudings.

She wasn't on the fortrass. That much she relized instently. Suddenly she rembered fighting with that guy with blound hair, also the resone why. Then their was that scream and an explosion on the back of her head. Her eyes fell on her swords sheath and was only mildly
suprised at the fact the sword was gone. She brushed her hand up agenst the cool metel bars. Her cell reminded her of a square box just with bars as the sides. Licking her lips nervously she waited for her captor to come. She already had a pretty close idea who her captor
was. As expected he walked in. A man with blue hair behind him. She toke refuge behind her barrier of emotions. Something she'd done so many times that it practiclly happened automaticly. No fear showned. No anger. No real emotion played on Aya's face at all.

He brushed a stray hand of blound hair from his eyes as he spoke,"To start things of, as you probbly already know, I am Allen Shizare, knight of Astoria."He paused searching her face for a reaction of any kind. Most women would melt into a puddle at his name. Seeing no
sighn of this he countinued,"I would like to know what you where doing on a Zeibock Floating Fortrass, along with how you learned to fight as well as you did. Most of the Dragon Slayers could barely hold their own agenst me."

Aya's eye twitched. She glared and crossed her arms,"I've no resone to tell you anything, you pumpus jerk!The Dragon Slayers are an elite group. They are all great fighters. So keep your own comments to your self!"Her every word was laced with more venem then most
would have been able to put into one word.

Allen gazed cooly into her blueish-green eyes that flashed pure hatered," I get the feeling your not going to coperate."

Aya raised her eye brows,"Ah, did ya figure that out yourself, bloundie?"

Allen narrowed his eyes. He was growing impatient with this girls attiude."I suggest you choose your words carefully, girl."

Aya fliped back her head slightly,"And I suggest you not telling me what to do."She narrowed her eyes,"I would like you to return me to the floating fortrass, now."She really didn't expect it to be that simple, but it was worth asking..or demanding.


Allen crossed his arms,"That will not be happening. We need you to tell us all you know about Zeibock. Their weapons. Their attack plans everything."

Aya gave him a look,"As if. Not gonna happen." true she didn't know anything really. But what where the chances of them beliveing that? None.

Allen steped closer to the bars,"You will be regeting that deccision soon."

Allen jerked his head to the right and the blue haired man,she thought she herd was called Gaddes, opened her cell door. Aya glanced at Gaddes then the doorway, measureing her chances of an escape. She sighed inwardly as she relized escape would have to wait.
At least untill they got careless. Aya let them take her to a closed off room. Once she was inside, Allen gestered for Gaddes to leave. Aya looked at Allen. Her eyes narrowed. Suddenly he tossed a sword at her. Effertlessly she caught it. Raiseing an eyebrow she
gave him a questioning look.

"Since you know how to fight so well, this shall be your interagation."he explained calmly,"Lets see how long you last, girl."

With that he raised his sword and smirked slightly, so sure that no matter how good she was; he would win. Aya moistened her lips and toke stance, equel determenation dwelling in the firey depths of her eyes.
