DAY.05.02
Authoress' Note: Hello hello people!! Second bit of the two-bit tester-ficcie is out!! And lookie! I actually got reviews last time!! 6 reviews!! O_O;; Thanks to Ashuri Chan, Geniusgurl, MysticMoon, Ana, Magical Dream and Sojiro-chan for reviewing ^_^ You guys are tha best!! And to answer your question MysticMoon, yes, in their mind, Celena and Dilandau have separate bodies since they are virtually two different people. Okay, one more thing: By now, Celena has already assumed that Dilandau is attempting suicide(which he is) soo... that should explain anything confusing...I think.
On a random note: -screams out- bJANG SU WON IS HOOOOOOT!!!!!!/b -gets many odd sidelong glances- eh heh heh ^.^V
Disclaimer #I: ::booms into the megaphone:: I OWN DILANDAU AND CELENA!! THEY'RE MINE!!! ::whispering off the megaphone:: i don't own escaflowne or any of their chars... -sniff- (nor do I own Jang Su Won.... -sobs uncontrollably-)
Disclaimer #II: I also don't own "All You Wanted" by Michelle Branch
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- and - is Celena
= and = is Dilandau
:::: and :::: are either private thoughts, or thoughts.dialogue between two characters that one of the other chars can't hear.
Recap: Celena can't feel Dilandau in her mind anymore due to a huge blowup a while ago, so she ventures into the depths of the maze within their mind to look for Dilandau. Along the way, she realizes why she's so frantic in her search, which is because she actually doesn't hate him, in fact, she really loves him. Meanwhile, Dilandau's about to plunge his oh-so-reliable dagger into his chest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
iI wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got started today/i
~Celena's POV~
-...Dilandau... I love you...-
The girl blinked. -er... did I just say what I thought I said? Naw, I couldn't have. I don't l-love him do I? DO I?!?!-
A voice in her head answered back. "You do... Celena..."
-Ahh... who? I mean, who are you?-
"Celena... now that I know you've found yourself, I can finally rest...."
-uh....that doesn't exactly clear up much.-
"... now go to him... my little Celena..."
-...Mother?!-
________________________________________________
iI didn't know that
It was so cold and
You needed someone
to show you the way
So I took your hand and
We figured out that
When the time comes, I'll take you away/i
~Dilandau's POV~
-...Dilandau...I love you...-
=shut up you friggin whore, I'm trying to have a moment here= Dilandau mumbled to himself =I don't care whether you lo- uh.... love me?=
He gripped the dagger tighter, as though his life ...no, his death depended on it.
=Did I hear wrong? Celena loves me?=
.............
The dagger clattered onto the floor as Dilandau Albatou went into shock for the first time in his partial life as the albino counterpart of Celena.
_______________________________________________
~Celena's POV~
"Go... Celena, I cannot stay longer... go to your love, go now!"
-B-but-but...-
"NOW!!" Celena hastily sprinted off towards the bowels of the intricate maze Dilandau's negative thoughts and confusion had created, in order to find the one that she truly loved. -...but... how did she get here? and what did she mean by "I can finally rest"? and how--
bCLANG!/b
-YAH!- Celena jumped with a start. She had been so caught up with her thoughts that she hadn't realized just where she was going and what was happening around her. A glimmer of hope entered Celena's mind as the loud clattering of steel hitting the ice cold floor broke her thoughts and registered in her mind. A small smile threatened to crack on her face as she raced madly towards the source of the sound.
i
If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cared/i
-DILANDAU!! DILANDAU WHERE ARE YOU???!- she hollared with all the love she could muster through her voice as an unnoticed golden aura began to envelope her...
____________________________________________
iI'm sinking slowly
So hurry hold me
Your hand as my hand
to keep me hangin on/i
~Dilandau's POV~
The young albino came out of shock as Celena's voice shattered his shock. He rubbed his head and closed his eyes, trying to drink in all that had happened. =So.... she does care about me...=
"Or does she?" a nasty little voice nagged at him from the back of his mind.
=Wha- Who are you? And what do you mean or does she?=
"I, am the little voice in the back of your mind. Otherwise known as your inner demon's conscience, at your service. And I meant, how do you know that she meant what she said? Couldn't you feel that certain ring of falseness in her voice? The cruel sneer that reverberated from deep within her heart? Couldn't you?"
=No....= Dilandau looked thoughtful for a moment =No, I didn't. Actually, I heard the ring of truth in her voice, and-=
"HAH!" the voice interupted with a contemptuous snort. "What a sucker. You can't even hear the loathe oozing in her voice... the obvious hatred resounding from every corner of her breath... look into yourself... you'll see it. You'll see what she hates. She hates you. Your pyromaniacy, the evil within you, the tempermental psycho she has had to endure for so long... and the darkness engulfing your soul this very minute, deteriorating the whats left of the so-called goodness in your mind this very minute... look, and you shall see." The voice seemed to sneer at him as his expression turned from one of thoughtfulness to one of sheer self-loathing. The demon smiled.
=You're right.=
____________________________________________
iPlease can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone/i
~Celena's POV~
Something was terribly wrong. She could feel it. Dilandau was her counterpart, she could feel everything.
-No.... Dilandau... Dilandau....- she murmered
iIf you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here/i
-It can't end now. It can't. It just CAN'T!!!- she screamed out the last word as a seering pain ripped through her body. She finally noticed the golden glow which seemed to emit from her very own body and gaped, wide-eyed. -Wha?-
"Celena, Dilandau is in terrible danger right now. A horrendous evil is controlling his thoughts right now. Manipulating him to do what it wants. I, cannot stop him, for I am only a spirit who is at rest. The evil is a disembodied soul who seeks to control bodies controlled by unstable minds. Its intended victim was you, but the evil found out the hard way that you are far too strong-headed to be bent towards its will. Instead, it has found a much better mind, and that, is Dilandau's. His mind is weak now, from too much strain. It will try to corrupt Dilandau and will continue until his inevitable death. Unfortunately, due to its frustrating attempts with you, it has decided that Dilandau's life should not be continued any further. It ends unow/u. Unless, of course, someone destroys it. But only you and Dilandau's efforts combined can destroy it since you share the body. If you don't act now, you'll know what he'll do."
Celena nodded absently as she absorbed all the information. She would NOT let her counterpart die if she had anything to do with it.
iSo lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cared
All you wanted was somebody who cares
If you need me, you know I'll be there
If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away form here/i
-I call upon thee, power of thy mind, show me the way!! Show Dilandau the light!!- The golden aura began to eminate brightly, until it became almost impossibly blinding. Celena looked towards the path which the light was showing her, towards the deepest, blackest section of the maze.
iSo lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cared/i
-Dilandau.... I'm coming...- she whispered as she dashed towards her love, golden light pulsating madly.

~Dilandau's POV~
With the dagger in his vice-like grip again, Dilandau narrowed his eyes until they were slits. =I can do this. I'm not needed anymore, and Celena won't miss me. Not at all.=
"Just get on with it already" the voice hissed.
=Alright, here goes.=
____________________________________________
~Celena's POV~
iIf you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here/i
-DILANDAU!!- Celena screamed -DON'T DO IT!!!- She rushed up to the enclosure where Dilandau was about to make his fatal mistake. She could feel his presence slipping away, and another one emerging where he once was.
iSo lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cared/i
-no.... I won't let this happen.-
Fists clenched and canines bared, Celena glared towards the barrier between her love and herself, measuring the amount of energy she would have to use to break it.
iPlease can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone./i
Suddenly, a beam of the golden light shot out of her body and tore through the barrier, making it possible for Celena to see Dilandau.
And he was almost at the point of no return.
-Dilandau....- she tried to speak, to catch his attention, uanything/u to stop him from doing what he was about to do. uNothing/u would come out of her mouth. She tried to rush towards him, but nothing. Her feet were glued to the place.
:::What the f-::::
And that, was when the dagger plunged into the depths of Dilandau's heart and pierced Celena's soul.
-NOOOOOOOOOOOO000000000oooooooooo!!!!!!!!-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A/N: Okay, okay, so Celena's little chant was a little cheesey(audience: HaH! A ulittle/u cheesey? Understatement there! -_-;;), but hey, it was a spur of the moment thing! And if you're wondering what the golden light was for, its for effect. And it symbolizes the purity and goodness of Celena. Why's it gold and not silver? I dunno, Gold seems more gold-ly ^.^V lol, okay, so maybe this story isn't going to be two-bit. The next chapter will go through the epilogue-ish sort of thing, and will probably answer some questions since I know that the first chapter was a bit confusing since I had it all in my mind. But writing it out at 2AM does kind of screw the story over and not make it like sound like its supposed to be -.-;;; If you want any questions answered, just click, review and ask, and I'll try to incorporate it into the next chapter. Probably going to re-do the first chapter too ~.~
On another note: In case you're wondering, Jang Su Won is a korean(not to mention extremely hot and drool-worthy) guy from a korean band called the Sechskies. They broke up a while ago, but most of the members have either gone solo or duo ~_^ And you're probably asking why I put babble like this here, cuz it is totally irrelevant to the story. Lol. I have my non-existant reasons.
