is back up! Here is the long awaited chapter 6! Just kidding. Kidding. I got
this up as soon as I could think of a good plot for it. I hope nothing has
confused you so far. Please r/r.
Going
Back chapter 6
With
Allen…
"I will
make it, I will make it," Allen chanted to himself.
Then
his legs collapsed from under him. He had been walking all night and half the
day; lets put it this way, he was dead tired. He couldn't take going the last
48 hours without resting or sleeping (remember the battle also). So there he
laid waiting for someone, anyone, to help him back to Fanelia after giving up
long ago looking for Escaflowne and Van.
Over
to Merle and Jake…
After
going through the dark and dusty tunnels, through the overgrown forest, and
across the silent fields, Merle and Jake finally made it to the remains of the
bloody battlefield.
"What
happened here," Merle asked as she stared at the remains in horror.
"I
don't know," said Jake in reply.
The
battlefield looked like a bloody massacre for the enemies and Hitomi, Van, and
Allen nowhere to be seen. The field looked like civil war struck the heart of
the enemies. Basically chaos in disguise of a battlefield. Suddenly everything
went black as they were knocked out by the unseen enemy hiding in the midst of
the battlefield.
The
enemies…
A
few soldiers dragged the unconscious Merle and Jake to a cold damp cell. Then
the unconscious pair were chained to musky walls with no key to get them out.
After making sure the job was done the soldiers left the dungeon only to enter
their own quarters.
Main
chamber in enemy castle…
"Good job Falon. We need those two in the dungeon, but we don't need the king and the girl," General Mellex yelled sarcastically.
"Th..e
k..in..g is de..ad s.ir," Falon stuttered.(the king is dead sir)
"Somehow
I don't think so," hissed the general.
Falon
cowered in fear under the general's sharp gaze.
"Fail
me again Falon and I will personally make sure that you are executed," said the
general sharply.
"Yes
sir," said Falon stumbling as he was getting out of the room in quite a hurry.
"A
new age will dawn and the black nemesis shall rise again," the general said
laughing insanely.
Merle and Jake were looking for something. They were in a holding cell chained to a wall. They were calling out for help and in agony. Now she saw it. They were looking for a way out of that horrible place. Rats scattered across the floor. The ceiling was dripping with freezing cold water and the dirt floor looked like someone was buried there. A couple of guards brought and laid it just out of their reach, laughing as they left.
The
vision changed…
Now
she saw a young man. By his clothes he was a high ranked officer. He was
planning an attack on someone. She looked closer to the papers spread across
the table. She gasped. They were sketches of her and Van. She looked at the map
with a look that said she had just seen a ghost. It was a map of the battle and
where the river was that she had saved Van.
The
vision changed again…
The
general was who she saw this time. He was in the main chamber again with an
insane look on his face. He had dark skin and jet- black hair. He had on an all
black outfit with the symbol of darkness on his shirt. A black phoenix.
"A
new age will dawn and the black nemesis shall rise again. Darkness shall fall
upon Gaea and destruction will surely follow. A black phoenix will soar through
the clouds signaling the end of peace and the beginning of death, destruction,
and darkness. We shall rule the dying land until everything is dead. Nobody
will stop me, not even the two who are saved Gaea before," said the general
towards the wind outside.
Changing
again…
This
time it was Allen she saw. His shirt was in shreds. Not only that there were
deep cuts on his back. Scars from the battle none the less. His long blond hair
was dirty and matted. He looked like he had been traveling for a long time. The
calm river and peaceful air around him described the peaceful look on his face.
He looked dead besides his breath, which was short and ragged. He looked like
he had given up on all hope and was waiting for death to claim him.
Once
more…
Finally
it was Van she saw. He was flying towards the beautiful sunset before his left
wing was shot and he was falling, falling in an endless sea of darkness; crimson
staining his glorious white wings.
Hitomi
woke up with a new determination on her face. She wasn't going to let any of
that happen. She finally realized what the price was. The price was her having
to save Gaea once again or watch it die before her very eyes.
