The One Within
Last Chapter:
Hitomi froze. "Van that's the girl from my vision. Those eyes are unmistakable." She gasped. Silver smiled in an evil'ish way.
"So I am so important to make your visions as well. Maybe I will just be used as a tool for power." Silver said.
Van looked at the girl with announce. Who was this girl to show so little respect?

Silver studied the couple in front of her. Hitomi looks extremely concerned for me. What did she see? She saw something, is she porting me as an evil person, or dose she see something more. There's so much I pray she did not see; no one knows anything about that side of me, if she saw that…. Calm down, she probably just saw your death or something Silver. Silver was thinking, while starring blankly at the two in front of her. Finally she put a smirk on her face and turned from the two to look at some dark violet roses to her right.
"You know I did not even want to come here, but Rumm said it was for my own good. I know all about you two to the point where you Hitomi left Gaea to come home, how or why you came back I don't know, I assume it was for the love you shared. But now I've been brought into your story for whatever reason I don't know, and don't care. If I die, I die. If I never go home, I don't really mind, nothing holds me there like nothing holds me here. In the past few days in this twisted dimension, all I've gotten is a bush of questions. And as for answers, well they all come out in riddles, but I guess I should ask for no less. Now Zaibach hunts we down for the power I hold, and its forced me to kill, but it don't matter to me, I'm numb from it all. So I ask Hitomi, because Rumm said that seeing you was the best for me," Silver turned to Hitomi, "What did you see about me, I supposes it's another riddle for me to work out but I need to know."
The three that stood around Silver each had a different look on them when Silver was down with her request. Allen looked at her with admiration and sorrow for what she is being put through, but the fighting side of her made him respect her. Van was puzzled by the girl, how she did not care for her life and did not care to go back to her own world like Hitomi so longed for the first time she came to Gaea. At the same time he could understand her ruddiness now and the her audited, she's been through a small version of hell since being here and it was far from being over. Hitomi looked at her with concern and pity, she could fell the pain the girl has gone through with her past and pitted her for the look she now seamed to have on life, not caring if death takes her or the outcome of where her life may leave.
"I will tell you." Hitomi bowed her head and closed her eyes, "It was cold, a strange girl my age, dressed in close deferent from here stood in the darkness, with a strange bracelet on her arm with a blood red gem. The bracelet changed to a weapon of some sort that had a long crimson blade. I could not see the girl to well, but her eyes stood out like two bright stars. They were bold liquid silver, with a red ring encircling them; they were eye's I could never forget, your eye's, Silver. Then a knight clad in silver armor stood behind you, you turned to him, then a red and silver dragon appeared beneath him and flew the knight away, you tried to follow but could not for a red solider garbed your arm, you turned to see Dilandau. A smile went across your face, then it showed Dilandau stabbing you in the heart, I don't know how but it happened, you fell back seaming dead. The same red and silver dragon came back, entwining itself into everything. The vision ended with the dragon's eyes facing directly at me."
Silver looked at Hitomi as she finished, she raised her head again and opened her eye's, she took a step back, Van came to her side, and Hitomi regained her composure. Allen was concerned for the Queen also and moved toward her. Silver looked back at the violet roses. "Thank you Hitomi, I'll be going now." Silver said and started to walk off.
"Wait! Were will you go?" Hitomi asked
"I don't know, were ever the sprites lead me. But for now I am going to try to find my way home." Silver said while continuing to walk off.
"You are welcomed to spend the night here, surly there is no reason to leave so quickly." Vans voice said.
"Thank you but no thank you. You have a lovely and peaceful kingdom; witch is not a place for me, my heart dose not desire to be here. I must go also for your own safety, Zaibach is looking for me after all." Silver turned to say to him.
"We can protect you here though." Allen said, Van nodded in agreement.
Silver rolled her eyes and continued to walk away. "I don't need protection I can take care of myself, I have escaped them once and if I get captured again I'll escape again. I am a very capable person."
"Well at least let me give you a horse and some pervasions before you leave." Van said.
"I except, it will make my life some what easier."

Dilandau watched Fanelia from the trees of the forest, it was dark now and the moons where just raising above the cliffs behind the city. Dame Lord Tokra not letting me destroy any part of this city. But maybe I'll still have some fun with Van. It's been a long time hasn't it Van, a very long time, wont you be suppressed to see me. Dilandau thought to himself. He watched as the gates to Fanelia opened and one person on horseback road away from Fanelia. Dilandau eyed the figure. It's her! Dame-it taking me away from Fanelia. Ready or not here I come girl, and I shale get you. Dilandau jumped down from the tree and started to follow the girl.

"Tokra I'm worried about the girl. The longer she's out there the more she is bound to know. If she finds the truth about who she is from anyone but us, she might turn completely against us." Lord Lyon told Tokra while sitting in Tokra's study.
"I would not worry to mush about that, but the power that girl holds, if she can become as powerful as the ledges tell, then we have something more to worry about, considering Dilandau is the one looking for her. If she dose turn on us then we will be the one's who will need to worry." Lord Tokra replied
"But you forget she was never with us. She doesn't trust us, wisely. We have to find a way for her to trust us and I believe Dilandau going after her is the best way to do this." Lord Lyon said with a smile.
"How could you say that, Dilandau is going to beat the living crap out of her by the time she gets here."
"Exactly." Lord Lyon said with a slight laugh. "And I'll be there to pick up the peace's for her." Then he left the room.
Lord Tokra, watched him leave and then shock his head. "The girl is smarter then you think, I dought she will fall for your plans. Her past…" he trailed off and looked down. One tear fell from the man and hit the ground noiselessly.

Silver pushed the horse forward she had been ridding for about two hours now, pushing the horse as much as possible. She knew if she slowed down, the faster they would catch up with her. Van all so told her that this horse was special, he was a horse from Rowen, a land renowned for there remarkable animals, this one, Blaze, was given to Fanelia as a gift. So far the horse has been at a full run the inter time, and have shown no sing on growing tired. Van had also provided a map and told her that a city called Passage was attacked and destroyed by Zaibach within the past few days. This better be the right city! It has to be, if it's not I will find it. Silver thought to her self.
The road she was following was going straight through the forest, she had already left the country of Fanelia. Silver slowed the horse to a walk as she could smell ash and smoke and she could hear the scream of people. She came up over a small hill. A small town was up in fire, and she could see a group of men dressed in black with red capes. Silver kept ridding straight into the town. They better not give me any shit. This is the fastest way to where I want to get. Well they are raiding the town, they probably will stop me, darn-it I have to get through though.
Silver was all most in the town and she could see people running out of there homes as they where light on fire. The men ran out to protect their town only to be killed by the attackers. Then on top of one of the homes on fire stood the Silver Knight that she Silver has seen twice before. The knight rose his fist to her showing her the red gem on his wrist. Then the fire licked up on his form and the Knight vanished.
Him again, why do I keep seeing him? Silver thought. Not realizing it but she had already entered the small village and it front of her stood five of the attackers. She looked up and grind at the five. All five had a rough dangerous manner about them, but still they did not look like dirty old criminals either. The one in the middle, with dark black hair with a red headband on addressed Silver. "Now what do we have here, a women bold enough to make an appearance in front of us. So what kind of little whore are you? You certainly don't look to be from here by your unusual close." Silver scowled at him.
One of the others with sandy blond hair and a scar across his forehead spoke next. "You don't have a weapon either, like if that would matter. What kind of fool are you to ride into this place without an sort of a weapon, even though you would not stand a chance with us with or without one."
Silver let out a canister laugh, which startled the men. "Fool, now I'm I. Who are you to call a fool, when you yourself may be one, since neither you or I know nothing about the other to call one a fool?" Silver replied.
The black haired one answered Silver's question, he looked only a bit older the Silver and was actually hansom. He also looked to be the leader of the group. "We are the Rigi, a group of bandits and we are just here to collect a fee from these villagers that they failed to pay. I assure you we are no fools, but you Milady may be for entering here without some protection. And I am afraid we may not allow you to leave. But I do like your spirit so we may not kill you, I may just clam you as my own." He said.
This is not happening. Clam me! I think not. Why did I do this again? They're right, I don't have a weapon, or do I? The Drag-Blade, but I don't know if I can control it. I have to. Something inside of her told her it was possible, and that she could. She dismounted from her horse, and took a step towards them. Her silver, red eyes got an eerie glow to them, as Silver found a new confidence, the same air about her as when she had been able to summon the Drag-Blade before. The red gem on the Drag-blade began to glow. It felt as a new being in her was being awakened. The insult of her 'foolishness' had her want to prove him wrong. It bagged her to let it take control and show them who she was, since they seamed to be so clueless. When she spoke next she voice seamed almost evil but also held the sound of justice to it. "I am Silver Blade the protester of Gaea, and I am no fool, nor I'm a unarmed." She brought her fist up to her chest and the bracelet morphed into the Drag-Blade. This time it appeared a bit different, the crimson blade was still the same but the armor did not just end on her forearm like before but extend to almost her shoulder. The men's eyes widen in fear as they saw this happening. Silver lightning fast brought the blade up and slashed it at the man who wanted to clam her.

About one hour latter Dilandau came upon the smoking town. Men and women were running about putting out fires and cleaning up the aftermath of a battle. Dilandau frowned at the sight. Now who would cause such destruction and not finish the work. Amateurs. Dilandau rode his horse through the town. He stopped when he spotted five dead men. They were not villagers, but perhaps the attackers, either way who ever killed them did a good job at it. It looked as if maybe a monster may have attacked them, however killed them did have there fun with them. He stopped one of the men waling by. "Who did this?"
"A women sir, it wired cloths, she held the Drag-blade. She saved us all and left without a single reword." The man said proudly but also fearfully because the sight did make his flesh crawl.
Dilandau scowled. Silver, you never cease to amaze me. I will find you and bring you back. You will be main. You will.
