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"
