Chapter 4: Time to come home
A loud bang was herd inside the sombre house of Hitomi Kanzaki as she closed the door behind her. Her very slow walking pace indicated that she was quite tired while she walked into the living room. The lights were not turned on, nor were the window's open as they usually were at this hour of the morning.
Hitomi walked miserably into the living room while trying to forget the missing person in this dark house of her's. Everywhere she turned memories played on in her mind and tortured her already wounded soul. She collapsed on her couch and started to cry, like she never cried before. Her small body trembled as horrible cry's escaped her lip's. ' Why am I so very alone now? Why does fate have to be so cruel all the time? My life has no use now.' The thought's raced through her mind as she cried harder and harder as reality set in.
"Why did this have to happen?" She asked the dark room. "Why did they have to die? Why couldn't god take me instead?"
Her voice wavered before she continued "Why did my father have to die, why did mom have to die, why di...did...Tyler have t...t...t....to die? Wasn't my brother enough?"
"Hitomi......" It was a mere whisper but she heard it and turned her head sharply. "Who's there?" She ordered before standing up. "Hitomi, is this what you really wanted?" The voice calmly asked. " What do you mean?"
"Hitomi, was this life the choice that you really wanted to make? I thought that you would stay with him. Why did you throw your true feelings away so easily? Did you choose this Tyler as your fiancé or was it the choice of your parents? Why are you letting yourself forget him? You know what you want and you know what to do. You have the choice and no one else, only the truth counts, Hitomi." And from that last statement the voice was not heard anymore.
Hitomi started trembling. Not in fear but in understanding. She finally got it. Tyler wasn't the one she missed it was Van. Her angel. How could she be so blind, she always knew the truth but she never seemed to understand it. What was she supposed to do now? Van has probably forgotten about me already' She concluded. But there, in Gaea, she would have a life and her friends. She might even have Van...... 'There I go again. It's not like he loves me or anything.' She scolded herself for being so selfish. Here on earth what did she have? Amano and Yukari were some where in England and she never saw them. Her mother and father were gone. Her fiancé was also dead and her dear brother has also died. The very thought of how much Hitomi had lost made her cry again.
Her decision was made, she was going back to her real home...........Gaea.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~In Fanelia
Pablo rushed inside the council room for a emergency meeting he had planed and as always he was late.
"Well well Sir Pablo has finally arrived for his very late meeting." Mocked an advisor.
"Be quiet you." Pablo said in a hurry while he collapsed in his chair, and breathing heavily.
"What is it Pablo?"
"I just found out that King Van will be proposing to Princess Melody." He said while trying to catch his breath.
"Good Lord!"
"What has possessed him?"
"Is that the very same King Van who said, ' I shall not get married to a snobby princess who has no taste in life.'?"
"Is he insane?"
"No Sir Lavion he said that he will marry her." Pablo said in a hurry.
"He is truly being possessed!" Stated another advisor.
"Oh shut up King Van is going to marry princess Melody. So get that through your thick skull, Vladmir." Replied Lavion in a quiet voice.
"Then let's start the wedding plans!" Pablo stated.
But none of them new the real truth...............
To Be Continued........
A/N: I'm sorry if this is too short but I have a very twisted plot for this story so there will be a lot of short chapters. So did you like it? What do you think is Van really proposing to Princess Melody? And what about Hitomi, is she really coming back? Your questions, or rather my questions, will be answered in chapter 5! Cya then?!
