A.N. I HAD MOST OF THIS CHAPTER DONE AND MY SISTER LOST MY DISK!! *sob* its terrible *sniffle* Now I got to rewrite it. Oh well… Thanks to the Winged Dancer for writing so much of her story, Roses. She's inspired me to write! Now I feel like writing! Teehee. I was reading over my last chapter and noticed I had a few mistakes in it, such as this sentence.
Filia will take care of that!" Lina replied. Sure enough, Filia was standing beside Xellos her hand out stretched as if building a strong shield.
I didn't mean beside Xellos… I don't know why I inserted that in there. One of these I'll get myself a god proofreader. But for now I'll have to stick with myself being the proofreader. Oh well. On with the story!
Filia ran aimlessly through the damp forest, knowing she had to go find Xellos but not knowing why she had to. Saichuro knew about the bond didn't he? Why'd he hide it for so long? She wondered how many other people knew about it. Probably the whole bunch of mazoku.
'I wonder if Xellos knew about it…" She mumbled to herself. She felt a tear slide down her face. She stopped running to place a hand up to her face.
"Huh? Why am I crying?" her eyebrows furrowed as her lips twitched into a frown. More tears started running down her cheeks and slowly she began to sob. She sat down at tree stump, leaning against it and placed her head to her knees and let herself cry.
A few hours later Lina and Company found her at the same tree, still crying. Zelgadis, Gourry and Valgarv backed away at Lina's request while the other two girls's comforted the blonde.
"I'm sorry Karyou-sama,. Forgive me… for I have sinned." Filia murmured before relaxing into Amelia's hug.
"If you weren't my favorite and only servant I would have you dead by now." Zelas growled, baring her fangs.
Xellos has his head down in obvious remorse. His hands were chained in silver handcuffs, an Electra Parrot's feathers skinned on both the outside and inside of this cuffs. The both of them were in a silver concealment room, meaning none could come in and none could go out. Expect for Zelas of course, the room's creator.
"Why didn't you go on and kill that dragon… Before this happened. I'm sure you could have sensed something. WHY DIDN'T YOU KILL HER?!" Zelas's eyes lit up to bright red, obviously in anger.
Who wouldn't be angry if their one beloved servant protected a lowly dragon over her attack. Her eyes narrowed, thinking hard to find out how the seal broke. She used one of the most powerful memory sealing spells in the book!
Xellos meanwhile still had his head down, his bangs covering his eyes. His head was pounding as if he had a headache. This bond with Filia… was he really in love with Filia? Did he really love her so much he would protect her from Zelas's wrath? Did he really love her some much he would sleep with her rather than kill her? But the seal wasn't broken till that morning. Did that mean he developed feelings for her on his own… without breaking the seal?
At this though Zelas's eyes glared at Xellos, who raised his head. Her reddish gold ones bore into his purple ones. "Is that it Xellos? You fell for that dragon bitch on your own…." She growled.
She glanced over at the staff that he always carried. The one that carried his feelings. His love… for that girl. Her obvious jealousy was already killing Filia in her mind. That bitch was going down.
"Zelas-sama… I'm sorry. Please forgive me for I've sinned against you." Xellos was on his knee, bowing before the Beast Master. To another Dark Lord, a servant like Xellos would probably be dead already. They were not attached to their servants.
Zelas instead walked slowly over to Xellos, her eyes glazed with tears though showing no emotion. She knelt beside Xellos, sitting down beside his side and snapping off the handcuffs. She pulled him in to and embrace, burying her face in his hair. Xellos's eyes were wide open as he listened to her sobs. His own eyes started water as he listened to this.
What was this feeling? Was Zelas actually crying? "Mother…" He murmured. He awkwardly put his hands over his, allowing her to hug him longed.
"Mission canceled, Xellos. But you are never ever to be near that girl ever again. Neither the Inverse girl and her companions." Zelas's whisper could be heard, slightly muffled by Xellos's hair.
"As you wish, Zelas-sama." Xellos replied without hesitation.
A few thousand years later…
"Are you sure this will work?" Filia Ul Copt, High Priestess for the Fire Dragon King, looked a bit worried as the new group of The Fire Dragon King's servants stood in a wide circle holding hands.
"Himitsu desu!" The dragon in charge winked with a grin before turning completely serious.
"Himitsu…" Filia's eyebrows furrowed as unwanted memories started to unfold. She took control of herself and shook her head, not wanting to remember. She raised her eyebrows, feeling the repaired dragon band jewel back on her forehead. The same one Xellos gave her as a present.
She sighed and wished her memories could have been erased when it was place back. IT seemed the jewel was only used as a cover up for the mark. She took a look around her, noticing each one of the Golden Dragons present. It was such a shame that the Golden Dragons were the only high servants of each God.
Looking over at the Water Dragon King's servant's, then over to the Sky Dragon King's, to the Earth Dragon King… then finally back at her group. Each of them had their Master in the middle of their circle.
'It took a while… but finally we will eliminate the darkness…it'll be gone…' Filia thought, watching the Fire Dragon King raise his hands towards the sky, the other Dragon Kings doing the same.
"We've gathered together in one accord to bring forth the new revelation! Arise, O Mighty God and show the world the your great power!" As all the Dragon Kings chanted this, every dragon in there closed their eyes, shifting to their dragon form.
"Revive! O Might Ceipheed!" Everyone said in perfect unison. The wind around everyone started to blow harder as a gate appeared before his or her eyes, a roar heard in the distance.
"She's arriving…" Came some murmurs. Filia looked up at the gate, slightly worried and frighten yet slightly excited.
A few hours later Ceipheed had been received through the gate, taking quite a bit of room. Each Dragon bowed on it's knee, heads bowed also. Before being able to murmur Ceipheed's praise, a loud destructive sound could be heard a few ways from them.
"This evil I sense…." Ceipheed's eyes flared in hatred, sensing her one and only enemy. "Shabrignigdo!" She exclaimed, taking off in the direction.
Filia rushed to her Lord's side before taking off with him and his Priest. The whole group reached the place in 10 seconds flat. Ceipheed and Shabrignigdo both let out a roar of war before everyone immediately went into battle. Filia was pretty much ready for this and quickly fought off the mazoku who approached her. Though so many mazoku surrounded her, even the Mazoku Lord of all, she still felt no fear. This wasn't the obvious time for that.
Ceipheed and Shabrignigdo were in a battle of their own, now one daring to interrupt less be destroyed. Filia took a deep breath as she fought off the last batch of Mazoku who dared to step to her. She was slightly irritated that bunches of weak mazoku were her opinion. That was until a familiar stepped to her. A motion of emotions rushed through Filia as she stared at the mazoku.
All she could do was stare. A group of mazoku rushed at Filia's side, Xellos's staff reacting to this and destroyed them. None of the dragons dared to step to Xellos.
"Filia…" Was all Xellos said. He stepped to her and placed an arm around her, pulling her to him. He leaned forward, closing his eyes and kissing her with all that he had. He didn't care anymore. This was war… he'd die anyway. Filia closed her eyes and kissed him back, wrapping her arms around him.
The war halted for a whole minute, watching the scene unfold between them. After the minute, Shabrignigdo scoffed.
"Such weaklings!" He roared, raising his hand and shoot a ball of mass destruction at the couple. Both Filia and Xellos looked his way, not letting go of the either. Xellos's staff lit up, likewise did Filia's jewel. It provided as a shield against his attack, not protecting the millions of Dragons and Mazoku lost in the attack.
Xellos's purple slits narrowed as a flame of purple and yellow fire begin to circle around both him and Filia.
"Is this the end, Xellos?" Filia asked softly.
"Yes… This is the end." Xellos replied.
A.N. Tada! The end! See! Xellos and Filia even got to tell you it was the end! Actually they were referring to their lives… I think. Or maybe the end to their responsibilities. Anyway! Neither Ceipheed nor Shabrignigdo won the war. L.O.N decided to start over and allowed Shabrignigdo to destroy the whole world before she destroyed the both of them.
I wasn't going to allow Filia and Xellos to get together at the end. But them I decide to let them and allowed the little war part. Other wise it would have ended once Zelas's request for Xellos to stay away from Filia forever. Oh well. Please review!!! I love reviews! *marches off to go finish her Untitled fic* ^_^
