Slayers Dream : Chapter 4
Slayers Dream : Chapter 4
Purin-chan: x.x;;; Too tell you
the truth, I wrote that chapter and never got around to typing
and posting it before I finished watching the series. ;_; That
ending was really, really powerful. Oh and I decided who to
kill but it's gonna hurt me lots to do it. He
happens to be my favorite charrie on Slayers and is tied for my
favorite charrie ever. It just seems more logical to have him
dead though ;___;. I'll just have to make up for it with
more mushy scenes between him and Lina while he's still
aliveand write another fic just for the two of them ~.^

"What
makes you think I'm not a complete mazoku?" Xellos
asked, glaring at Zelgadis with both of his eyes open.
"Well
you can't be an ordinary one, if you were then you
couldn't love," Zelgadis answered, glaring back at
Xellos.
Xellos
scowled, then answered, "Juu-ou-sama just made me
differently than the other mazoku priests and generals,
that's all."
Zelgadis
smirked. "I was right. You do love
Lina," he said.
Xellos
sighed, then replied, "And what are you going to do about
it?"
Zelgadis
lifted up a finger and replied, "Sore wa himitsu desu."
(Author's note: I just had to
say this butI really think Xellos is capable of feeling
love. I mean, find a translation to his songs on the internet and
you'll see what I mean)
Lina
stared at Amelia. "She grew so much" she thought,
becoming slightly agitated. Everyone seemed to be growing up,
that is, everyone except her. Lina still had the same body, same
mind, same nickname. The only thing that had changed was her
clothing, which was exchanged for a dark violet, near black
outfit with no breastband. Her cape and shoulder guards remained
the same, however.
"Hello
Lina-san," Amelia said, smiling and curtsying in a VERY
royal and polite manner.
Lina
frowned. "What happened to the hyper, justice-loving Amelia
I used to know?" she thought to herself. Out loud she said,
"Hi Amelia. It's nice to see you again."
"Is
there something the matter Lina-san?" Amelia asked kindly.
Lina
winced. "Hell yeah, there was something
wronghow would Amelia take it?" Lina
wondered. Amelia was the one whoseemed to be in love with
Zelgadis "Amelia, I need to know if you still love
Zel," Lina asked.
Amelia
sighed. "Lina-san, it was not love that I felt for him. It
wasa childhood crushmerely infatuationnothing
more," she whispered, seeming to be hurt by the words.
"Besides, he felt nothing for meit was obvious he felt
nothing for me"
"Amelia"
Lina had that awful feeling again. The awful feeling in the pit
of her stomach that made her just want to sit down and cry until
she could cry no more, but she had to tell her. Amelia would find
out eventually
"Amelia" she
murmured, not wanting to know what Amelia's reaction would
be.
"I
know. I heard that you were traveling alone, which meant that he
was no longer with you" Amelia looked into Lina's
pained expression and continued, "I'm sorry"
She then walked over to Lina and put a hand on her shoulder.
"I think it's best if you rested up before continuing
your search," she said, casting a sleeping spell on Lina.
"Amelia"
Lina fell unconscious into Amelia's arms.
Xellos
waited patiently as Amelia walked through the door, laid
Lina's body down on the bed, and left. Then, he teleported
into her room. "Lina-chan," he whispered as he walked
over to her. "Lina-chan" He now was standing
right beside her. "Hmmit looks like Amelia-san cast a
pretty powerful sleeping spell on Lina-chan" he
thought. "Lina-chan" Xellos smiled and bent over,
placing a small kiss on her cheek causing her to stir in her
sleep. He teleported beside her on the bed and wrapped his arms
around her. "Wake up my dearest Lina-chan"
Lina
blinked one eye open, then the other. She felt an odd weight
across her stomach. "Xellos?" she whispered out
loud, placing her hand on top of his.
"Yes
it's me Lina-chan," he whispered back, pulling her
closer to him. "I want to know what you were dreaming about
Lina-chan, so go back to sleep," he instructed. Lina nodded
once before dozing off once again.
Lina
woke up to find the fire put out and Zelgadis nowhere in sight.
"Zel?" she asked, her voice echoing back into the cave.
"I thought I told him not to take the watch all night again.
He needs his sleep," she thought to herself, getting up and
walking to the mouth of the cave. "Zel! Where are
you?!"
Lina
became worried when she didn't receive an answer. Instead, a
certain purple haired mazoku appeared before her. "Xellos!
What are you doing here?!" Lina asked, forming a fireball
between her hands.
"Just
checking on your well-being Lina-san! You judge me too
lowly." And with that, Xellos walked over and tapped her on
the shoulder, causing her to fall unconscious into his arms. He
smiled at her. "Even in sleep she looks so beautiful,"
he thought, "Perhaps I may tell her that someday"
Lina
woke up to find Xellos staring at her with both of his eyes open.
She found herself wandering into the amethyst depths, losing
control of her body and allowing her heart to take control. At
last, both pairs of lips brushed against one another, kissing
gently, yet passionately.
She's
mine now
"Amelia-san?!
Is that you?" Sylphiel asked, walking towards the queen with
tears brimming in her eyes.
"Sylphiel-san!
It is a pleasure to see you again!" Amelia replied with a
royal tone to her voice. If one didn't know better, they
would have thought that the Amelia three years ago was an
altogether different person.
"It is
you!" Sylphiel said, curtsying before her. "My how
you've grown! Not only physically but mentally as
well!" she complimented.
"I see
you have as well. By the by, how is Gourry-san doing?"
Amelia asked.
"Gourry-sama?
Oh he's fine. He eats as much as he always did," she
said. "You should come visit us sometime! We are just a
while away from this kingdom," she offered.
"That
would be splendid," Amelia replied.
"Lina-chan,"
Xellos said when he released her from the kiss. His eyes had
returned to their normal closed state.
"Hai?"
Lina asked in reply, snuggling into his embrace.
"Nothing.
Go back to sleep. I'll be here with you," he said,
pulling her into a tighter embrace. Lina sighed once before
falling asleep in his arms. Xellos looked down at her in
confusion. "What could have caused the sudden change?"
he wondered.
Outside the
window, a shadowed figure in a cloak watched silently as the two
figures in the bed slowly fell asleep together. Xellos saw him
and smiled. "She's mine now. You had your chance."
He had mouthed the words so Lina wouldn't wake up. The
cloaked figure nodded slightly and disappeared from sight. Xellos
smiled again and gently kissed the top of Lina's head.
"Sleep well my dearest Lina-chan"
