After the Pillar is Gone

Chapter 10

Last time:

Hikaru sighed and turned around almost like she was going to leave. "she is my daughter."

Now:

            Shock was a prevalent emotion on the people in the room as Hikaru walked quietly out. She walked to her old room and flounced onto the bed and started to cry. Why? Why must I worry about being excepted by Lantis when I know that my daughter is in trouble and might even be on the wrong side of every thing?

            She got off the bed as she held back the rest of her tears. She walked to the window seat and sat staring out at the landscape remembering how Ciphiro was when she had first seen it. Then the second time she had come with all the grass and living things gone except in the castle. She heaved a heavy sigh and started to walk to the door when a sparkle on the bed side table attracted her attention. When she reached the table and looked down she saw the necklace that Lantis had given her all that time ago. Keep it, someday it might protect you from harm.

            Hikaru picked up the necklace and debated whether to put it on or not. But suddenly her door opened to reveal Lantis himself standing there. Nether said anything and the silence was stretched out. Both just staring at the other not knowing what to say. Well I don't know at least, Hikaru thought.

            "how long has it been on earth since you left?" Lantis broke the silence.

            She shrugged and just then she noticed that she didn't have to look up as much to look Lantis in the eye. She started to giggle. Lantis only raised one eyebrow. "gomen, but I hadn't noticed how tall I had gotten until I had to look up at you."

            "you have grown. But that doesn't answer my question."

            "to tell the truth I don't know. I stopped counting awhile back. To guess, I'd say about 30 years at least." Hikaru sighed and unnoticed by Hikaru, Lantis' eyes widened a bit. "I guess you want to hear the story. About Kumohi and Sayorie." Hikaru looked up at Lantis and he slowly nodded. And so she did. (An: im not typing out the whole thing. Sorry just read ch.1)

Throne Room:

            Hikaru had left and so had Lantis. Eagle had left a couple minutes after Hikaru and Lantis.

Damn, this is all I could write. See ya akoya
