Lina rang her
dad's apartment doorbell and waited for Zelgadiss to open the door. While
waiting she thought back to the conversation she overheard just earlier today.
She nervously clasped her hands and looked up when she heard the familiar
'click' of the door opening. When she saw Zel, she flung her arms around him.
"Whoah. That was
a nice greeting." Zel gently hugged her back and smiled to himself. God I
missed her…I wished she would just come back and live with us again, just like
the old times.
"Zel…" Lina
hugged him tighter, as Zel walked out of the doorway. The door slammed shut behind
him and they stayed like that, in the small hallway, for quite a while.
"Zel…I'm worried."
He let go of her
and looked at her. She does look nervous today. I hope nothing bad happened…
"What's wrong?"
She let out a
huge sigh. "I was in the kitchen earlier today, getting me some food."
"…What? Did the
boogeyman of the food department came and stole all your food or something?"
Zel made this comment, hoping to get her a bit relaxed
It worked, since
she playfully slapped him on the shoulder. "Oh whatever! There are not such
things as bogeymen! But you can say some of them came today."
Zel rolled his
eyes, "Let me guess, 'Bogey Gaav' and 'Bogey Phibrizo'."
Lina shoved away from him and started to convulse in laughter. "Zel!!! That was
just so…so…"
"Wonderful?" Zel
filled in.
Lina continue to laugh harder. "Heck no!! That was just utterly corny!!"
"Oh?" Zel raised an eyebrow. "Like as if you can make better jokes."
"…" Lina glared at him. She stalked up to closer with an evil look in her eyes.
Zel smirked more. He reached behind him and opened the door. Nimbly, he stepped
inside and Lina continued to follow him. Pretty soon they were in his room. He
bumped into the foot of bed and was trapped. Lina took this opportunity to
pounce onto him. Zel let out a shout of surprise and both of them crashed onto
his bed.
Lina made a "V" sign with her fingers and smiled. "Never insult a woman!!"
"You should have
been more accurate you know…"
She raised an eyebrow, "Oh? What have I forgotten?"
Zel grinned
playfully and gently stroked her cheeks with the back of his thumb. "You forgot
to say 'Never insult a woman that belongs to Zelgadiss'!"
Lina giggled and
hugged him. "You are so silly."
"Must be you."
Zel smiled. "Now what's up with the bogeymen?"
She sighed. "I…I
overheard talking about something…"
"Something? Is it bad?"
"Zel…" Lina exasperatedly let out, "You know by now that anything that deals
with them is bad."
"Oh yeah…considering that this isn't 'Nightmare Before Christmas'."
"…" Lina got up and walked around his room. "I'm serious. This sounds bad."
He turned on his side and leaned on his elbow. "Okay…what's up?"
"I don't know what their plan is really, but…it has to do with Xelloss. They
are going to manipulate him or something."
"Don't worry. No
one can manipulate him." Zel brushed it off easily.
"…From what I've seen so far…I think he's already manipulated."
"Lina…what did
they say?"
"Well for one thing they are going to make him get Lano out of business.
They'll going to use Xelloss as bait to get Lano and his company go out of
business."
"I don't think
Xelloss is gonna fall for that. He got more common sense than to do something
crazy like that."
"…" Lina didn't say anything. She sighed and hugged herself as she walked back
to his bed. "You haven't heard have you…?"
Zel frowned and
sat up. "Heard what?"
"Yesterday…Xillia
got in an accident while she was shopping with Zelas…"
"…How badly did they get hurt?"
"Zelas just got cuts here and there. Xillia…is paraplegic…"
Zel groaned. "Oh
damn…lemme guess. Xelloss is furious."
"Make it beyond furious," she said, while nodding.
"Great…" Zel sighed.
"Yeah. They are gonna somehow use that reason to manipulate him…"
"This is not good…"
"He might listen to you though…"
Zel sighed
again. "I'll try…I'll try…"
AN: Do NOT ASK about the 'boogeyman' part!!!! ^^;;
