Sushie landed and Saria swung down from his back, her gown somehow never seeming to
move at all.She patted his head and was about to say goodbye when she heard a voice
behind her.
"Hello, Your Divinity." Treize smiled at her, his white teeth glinting. "The battle has
begun. We have just locked forces with the remainder of Milliardos forces. I assure you we
will prevail, and good shall triumph!!"
Saria shook her head. "Treize, a balance needs to be achieved. You cannot hope to stamp
out all evil."
"Youre wrong, Your Divinity." Treize smiled. "I do wish we coud chat longer, but I ave a
few people to talk to."He walked off, and Saria scowled. Such a goody two shoes. He made
her sick.Shefelt a pain in her head. It was starting. Immediatly she closed her eys and
pulled everyones spiritshadowsto the place where they would meet. This way no physical
harm could come to them and they could still watch, even if a few were unable to talk to
her.
She decided the best thing to do was to justb run. Saria shifted in a blur of black and white
and ran off to the center of the battle. She could feel the other presences and decided to go
peacefully as possible.
"Sir, I advise you to stop this attack." She stood in fron of Treizes main general. He
laughed.
"Move, woman, I have better things to do than comfort women." With a sinking heart
Saria knew he was right. She couldnt exactly do much here without her power being
sensed. So she tried the other general.
He slapped her across the face, causeing her eyes to shift scarlet and back to ice blue in an
instant. She grabbed him by the collar.
"You ever touch me again, myself help me, I wil rip your throat out," she hissed.Milliardos
general looked a bit araid, then angry, calling the whole army u[pon Saria.
"MOBILIZE!" ATTACK HE!"
"But sir! Shes just a woman! What about Treizes troops?!" a private screeched.
"JUST DO IT!!" Saria looked about, practically helpless. She couldnt even take use of the
elements without notyice. She didnt want to provoke anything, and besides she wasntr sure
what she would do anyways.
They rushed in at all side. She held her ground, waiting for the right moment.....
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She sat on a rock, staring hard into the water. SOmthing was happening over in that battle
and Treize coudn't concentrate on her suspended animation. She was snapped from it and
now staring into the water.
"What's wrong with me...I am slower than usual...This isn't well..."
Herro frowned. "Whats wrong?"
"Just trying to concentrate on things. Somthing is a miss..."
She watched her reflection trickle across the river. She shut her eyes. "I now have a
relflection...I ...oh no I see my reflection and i don't recognize the face that is here...It's
someone completely different."
"You can see your reflection?!" Heero had always thought vampires couldnt see thier
reflections...
"Thats because somthing is happening to me...i don't know...I.." She held her head. "I'm so
confused..."
She stood up, walking around in a small slow circle.
"It's like...somthing dying inside of me...maybe I'm losing it, maybe i am not seeing my
reflection...I don.t know.."
"Maybe its a reversing process?," Heero suggested tentatively.
"Goingn backwards means if i was to wait 24 hours, you'd be inlove with a baby in
oversized diapers!"
Heero couldnt help it. He laughed. He then heard something., like a faint humming. "Do
you hear something?" No sooner he said it, he saw the cause. There was a fly buzzing
round his head. With one smooth motion he squashed it.
"I only took your humani-nevermind..." She sat heself back down. "Maybe thats it...i took
away your humanity and it's in me...."
He chewed his lip, then found it was a bit awkward with fangs and gave up. He gazed into
the water thoughtfully.a bit of his hair fell into his face, and he realized tio was black
streaked with silver. He must be getting more and more liek avampire.
"I think youre right...." He stared at the silver-ebony lock in front of his eye.
Shutting her eyes and reopening to find half of a reflectino staring back, she put her finger
in there, the reflection disappearing.
"I...knew i felt guilty..oh Heero what have i done!?"
He wrapped his arms around her to reassure her. "Hush. I wouldnt have it any other way."
he kissed her forehead. Her eyes shut. "I question myself sometimes over my own turning
into a vampire...if i wasn't, i would of been a very sad woman."
"Hush. It all worked out for the best, so theres no need for you to beat yourself over the
head with it." He pulled her tighter and kissed the top of her head again. "Just hush."
She closed her mouth a bit and wrapped arms around him. "You're so warm..."
"For a vamp you mean," he said teasingly.
"For an incredibly handsome vamp...best kind there is." She said in her normal low coo.
He dropped his voice down to that low purr. "I can say the same thing for you, my Queen
of Darkness."
She grinned, liking the name Darkness. "At the rate I'm going, when I'm thirty, ill be in a
nursing asylum. You'd have to look at me through a cell."
He smiled. "As long as I got to see you..."
"Reaching small little kisses through the bars until-" A huge crash was heard, and a roar
was heard. A large recognizable heap of scales fell through thre trees a few yards
away."Sushie? Oh my GOD!"
Heeros head snapped up. "Huh?!"
They separated and ran towards Sushie. The Dragon laid there.
"Sushie! SUSHIE!" She ran to him, wrapping her arms around its scaley neck.
"Sia...I had to...come and see you if i could."
"Hush. Just rest now..."
Sushie chuckled. "I never thought i would get serious...but what a better...time
than...death."
Sia's eyes filled and flowed with tears. "Sushie."
"I...Have to go now....I just wanted to make sure i came to...you once more."
"No please...Sushie, don't leave."
"Heero, you have to take care of her..."
"I promise Sushie. May I burn up in the worst region of Hell and worse if I break this vow."
He looked Sushie in they eye and smiled faintly. "Good enough for a vow?"
"The very best once it concerns her...I just never got to tell you...I really wished for you...to
become the ruler of the world...when we had that preminition, thought i didnt act it. Now
you just must live...just live like you did before...Jus-" His eyes shut and his head sunk. Sia
rested her head on his cheekbone as the ebony lost its colour. "Sushie..." She cried to
herself. "I should have told you i was sorry...I was so sorry..."
Heero draped his arm around her, knowing nothing he could say could possibly comfort
mher right now.He just held her till her storm of weeping would pass........
She thought of how he said he would be there forever for her, dragon and master. But he is
gone...her skin became vampiric pale and her hair gained the streaks it had before, lips
turning black, eyes hardening. "This war killed him...this war..."
"And it will be over soon....This war will not be in vain, love. Im sure weve done our part.
Now we just have to wait for the others to do thiers........." he clasped her about the
shoulders and rocked her back and forth gently as one might rock a small child.
Sia nestled in, still harvesting some tears, she held them back but they still came. stronger
than ever...the skies darkened and lightning sparked. She wanted to yell. In her mind, she
screamed, lightning and thunder collabarating into an aroura of anger, then it let up as her
tears dried.
"Dead, gone, forever."
move at all.She patted his head and was about to say goodbye when she heard a voice
