I Give Myself To You --- Chapter 3
~~~~~~~~~~~`
Rated r this time for a slight bit of lime and swearing

Notes: Dilandau has just come out of the house, swearing for revenge on Shesta, but he appears to be having new emotions for the the girl who seems to be Shesta's sister, Narye.
I seriously suggest you read the last 2 chapters before reading this one, it can get a bit confusing...

By the way, I used Rupees (from Zelda64) as the currency in Gaea. One's like a dollar here on the Mystic Moon
You should know by now : stuff in *stuff* are thoughts

PLEASE REVIEW!! i love getting reviews...please!!

*The fool...how dare he defy me!* He snarled in anger as he rushed through the crowded market street, pushing aside the the peasant women and children and into the mud. He quickly darted through the alley way and wondered in frustration just where the hell he was.
"Damn it!" He cursed silently.

Frowning and looking around, Dilandau walked back to the busy market street to find directions, and smirked as he noticed a nearby man proclaiming himself as the best warrior on Gaea and he was receiving challenges for 200 rupees. He read off the sign,

"Kami, the greatest warrior on Gaea!
Has never been beaten,
Not even by a Dragonslayer!
Challenge me for 200 rupees,
And if you win,
I'll give you 100,000 ruppes!!"

He looked besides the man and noticed the pile of bodies stewn about. *Probably losers...This little trip might turn out to be quite...fun* All thoughts of Shesta and Narye slipped Dilandau's mind as he reached into his pocket and dug deeply to find spare money.
After a pause of confusion, Dilandau cursed himself. "What the fuck am I thinking?! I'm the Dragonslayer general! I don't need a measely 200 to challenge this man!"

*I'll kill for it instead*

He laughed insanely for a moment but after noticing the strange glances coming his way, he frowned and stopped, stepping into a nearby shack.

"Oh baby!! HARDER, HARDER!!!"

"OH TASHIA, I'M COMING!!"

"BABY! OOOOOOHHH NO, MORE, MORE, VEFLE!!"

"SPANK ME...NO!!!"

Dilandau had a frozen look of surprise on his face as he came into the house and saw the two lovers on the floor. He gulped and a deep blush came onto his face, almost matching the tattered red armor he wore. He immediately clutched the doorway and took a long breath of disgust.

*Damn bastards...I can't stand....urg! Those things!!"

He cautiously stepped back in as a glint of diamonds caught his eye and he reached for the heavy bag on the cupboard, not even looking at the two naked people anymore. Just as his hands caught the stone prey, Dilandau felt two heavy hands on his shoulders.

"Just where the fuck you think you're goin' with ma money, pretty boy..."

Dilandau smiled dangerously as he turned his head around, still holding onto the diamonds in the bag. An ironic smile played on his lips as he put his gloved hands to the man's and brushed them off. "Yes...I AM quite beautiful, don't you think..." He reached for the silver dagger but just remembered that it was gone! He breathed in exasperation. *urgg...damn that girl!*

Turning his attention back onto the half-dressed giant, he smirked. "So, you must be Vefle," and he turned again and pointed to the girl, trying to cover herself with the blankets. "And that disgusting bitch you screwed must be Tashia..." he laughed insanely again and continued as the giant man drew a sword from his loose pants, tied together with a coarse rope, and charged at Dilandau.

Grinning happily, Dilandau side-stepped him easily and and kneed him in the stomach, grabbing his sword in his hands and walked towards the girl. he raised the long steel blade and was about to strike when a voice came behind him. "Oh no boy, you're not getting away that easily!"

Sighing in annoyance and exasperation, Dilandau put a hard glare on his face and turned around to face the oncoming man, smiling pleasantly when blood gushed onto his hands, and he felt the sword squirm in between the man's internal organs. The sound of ripping tissue and trickling blood on the carpet-covered floor was music to his ears as he pulled out the sword, now coverd 3 forths with warm sapping liquid.

He chuckled, walking towards the woman again.

"please!! Spare my life! I'll do anything you want!!"

Dilandau suddenly looked interested and he stopped. Raising his eyebrows, he questioned simply, "anything?"

Hope sparkled in her grey cat eyes and she nodded furiously. "Yes!! ANYTHING!!" SHe smiled inwardly, *this baka probabaly wants to have sex with --"

But her thoughts were cut off as a painful spasm shot through her neck...

"Then die."

He walked back out and threw the bag of diamonds in the air, catching it again. He laughed joyously and looked around, searching for the 'greatest warrior in all of Gaea'. After spotting the yellow sign again, he laughed, almost as if the past incident never happened. Wlaking proudly and slowly towards the man, Kami, he held out the sword that he had taken from the other man and swung it in the air. An evil glint appeared in his eyes and his hands shook with lust. *I can almost taste the blood...hahahaha*

Dilandau pushed his way through the crowding people and scowled as annoyed faces pushed him back and further from the center, his patience wore thin and he furiously slashed an innocent man standing beside him, drawing the crowds attention one by one.

"I AM LORD DILANDAU ALBATOU, GENERAL OF THE MOST ELITE SOLDIERS , THE DRAGONSLAYERS, IN ALL OF THE GODDAMN ZAIBACH EMPIRE...GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY WAY!!!"

To his surprise, people slapped their knees and and roared with laughter. A fat woman cried out from the crowd. "If you're that skinny mental case, then I'm the Queen of Asturia!" Dilandau gasped with anger and he glared at them all, surrounding him, and he slowly drew his sword. Bowing in fancy etiquette, he replied in a raspy voice, "Your majesty..."

He was about to strike the nearest people around him when a sharp and merry foreign voice called from under the sign. "Well then fight me, ya lone bastard!"

Dilandau smiled gently and looked up innocently, as his eyes turned a slight shade darker, a melancholy look growing in the deep set eyelashes. "Hmmp, here's your money..." He threw the bag of diamonds towards Kami and the crowd seperated in two, forming a path for him. He threw his head up and put an arrogant and smug look on his face and twirled the sword skillfully, the crowd's murmurs and gasps growing at his dangerous feat.

As the crowd parted to reveal the sun-tanned warrior, Dilandau scowled. *He doesn't even look a fighter!*

Kami picked up the leather bag and counted the money, his eyes growing wider and wider as he counted. Stuttering, he gasped, "There's...t-there's more than 1 million rupees in here!" He stared at the armor cloaked boy standing before him. *Oh geez...what if this really IS Dilandau...I've heard of him before, he was..." He gulped, fear stinging his eyes.

Laughing at his opponent, Dilandau threw his sword to his right hand and screamed as he struck down...

When all of a sudden, a familiar voice rang in his ears....

"Dilandau! Back up this instant!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Moments before...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Running back and forth doing errands, the blonde boy's face twitched as he remembered the past 5 weeks that his master, Lord Dilandau, had disappeared.

Chesta slapped himself mentally again and berated himself. *Damn it! Why the hell did I leave him that night!! Urg!! It's all my fault!*
He groaned and let out a sob as he thought of what pains Dilandau-sama might be going through right now, but picked himself up when footsteps neared around the corner.

"Chesta." A gentle voice appeared from the shadows, bringing light forth to his mind.
"Nani...?" Chesta gulped and worried over the outcome of his recent display of weakness. he looked up and saw Guimel put his hand on his shoulders.

"Hey don't worry!" Guimel smiled at his friend's worried face. "great news! Folken-sama found Dilandau!" *Wow, Chesta's never been this broke-down before...* He looked at the fragile shaking form. *I never realized he loved Dilandau'sama this much...*

Guimel picked Chesta up and brushed the dust from the stone floors off the blue armor. "Folken-sama wishes the discuss the matter with us." He sighed, wondering himself where his lord could have gone.

They walked wordlessly together into the huge room, light cascading through the dusty windows, no drapes to cover them as usual. Then, a blue-haired man stepped forth and a train of sorcerors followed him.

Chesta looked nervously around the room with his blue eyes and noticed that all the other Dragonslayers were there, kneeling. Each one looked up and smiled sympatheticaly at the small soldier. He followed and kneeled down to, looking at Folken all the time, waiting for the news.

Miguel was the first to speak and he stood up. "Folken-sama...."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Present
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Folken clutched Dilandau's shoulder with his real arm and gently said, "Dilandau, we found Escaflowne, we need you to destroy it." He chose his words carefully. *One wrong statement and he'll snap like a twig...at least he hasn't killed anyone yet, that's an improvement.* His eyes wondered over to the slain bodies. *Nevermind...*

"Come Dilandau, your guymelef and Dragonslayers are waiting..."

As is blinking out from a deep trance, Dilandau clutched his sword and shook his head, taking in the precious information. Meekly, like a little boy, he asked quietly, "Es-escaflwone...?" Memories rushed back into his mind as all of a sudden, he remembered exactly waht had happened those 5 weeks ago.

His face flushed with anger as he remember the Van, the pain in his leg, the murderous sorcerors, the soldiers, and most of all, the clearest thought in his mind, Narye....

And Chesta.

Not expecting the sudden reaction from Dilandau, Folken suddenly let go of the boy's black shirt and watched as Dilandau rushed to the blonde boy standing behind him.

With full force, Dilandau pushed him back into the mud and started punching him on his face. "Die you traitorous bastard!!!" He twisted Chesta's face into the dirt and growled uncrontrollably, wincing in pain as his leg spasmed again and his thoughts turned back to HER...

"ARG!!!! NO!!!!!!!!" Dilandau struggled as Chesta tried to get back up but he pushed him back down. "I'LL KILL YOU FOR BETRAYING ME!!!"

The rest of the Dragonslayers wondered what their master was talking about, What betrayal?

As the fight continued and unknown to the group around the fighting couple, Kami took the diamonds and snickered to himself as he ran away. He felt that the Gods had blessed him and gave him an escape from the psycho-pyromanic. He glanced bad and felt pity for the blonde boy under Dilandau but flicked off ths though, *better him than me...*

Dilandau continued with his bashing of Chesta and he slapped him one last time. He stood up, panting, and grabbed Chesta who was coughing violently and spitting out blood. Dilandau roughly grabbed his sword and shook it violently and slapped chesta's face with the dull side, leading a sharp cut on his cheek.

He just stood there angrily and silent pursued.

Choking from the death grip on his neck, Chesta gasped and bloody tears came from his sapphire eyes. "Be--Betray..-al...Dilandau-Di-what betrayal..."
Frowning dangerously, Dilandau lifted up Chesta by the throat and flung him aside, breaking 5 of Chesta's ribs in the process.

None of the other Dragonslayers could move. They were shocked at Dilandau's anger, and helping their friend how would be deadly....

Dilandau walked slowly over to the fallen Chesta, fuming that he would dare deny it.

"You bastard..." he coughed. "You defy me and you dare deny it!!??" he screamed.

"Dilandau-sama..."

"Asshole...I'll show you..."

Dilandau drew out his sword and frowned deeply, as if deciding at that exact moment, just what to do.

The other Dragonslayers gasped, *oh chesta....*

The sword shined in the sunlight and fragments of dried blood flew off, dancing in the wind. He sighed deeply for one moment and almost look angelic but anger filled his distorted face again.

"I'll show--show--you your betrayal..." he calmly picked up chesta by his arms and quickly unsheathed his sword, gently nuzzeling it against Chesta's neck. He walked ahead and slashed anyone who got into his way.

Curious crowds followed after Folken (who was still completely dazed from the incident) and the scared Dragonsalyers.

After what seemed like an eternity to Chesta, he got the strenght and glanced up from his weak eyes and remembered the route, where it led to...
*No...* he thought weakly. *How..could he have found out...?*

Dilandau dragged him forward, and finally getting to the right door, he grimaced and knocked quickkly....

From inside the house, everybody heard a cheery voice. "Coming!! Wait just a sec!!"
Dilandau was annoyed *Damn that girl, she's alerady recovered from my torture!*

He knocked again and waited impatiently.

Suddenly the door opened...and a grinning face looked out. "Ohh!! Chesta!!! Come on---"

Chesta groaned.

Narye's eyes widened and she stared at Chesta's bruised and cut face, a pale hand holding onto his shoulder. She gulped and gasped, making her eyes follow the hand up to a cold and glaring face.

Staring into his hard blood eyes, she held her breath

"Dilandau..."
