Lina opened her eyes to see sunlight pouring down on her. She closed the tightly.
It's another dream. I'll be on Earth when I wake up.
Lina opend her eyes once more and sat up. She was in a forest. Lina instantly looked up in the sky. Earth hung down next to the moon. Lina heard voices and saw a young man with brown hair talking to Dilandau.
"The Mystic Moon?" the boy exclaimed to Dilandau.
Dilandau nodded and muttered something. The boy bowed and left. Dilandau turned and looked at her. "You're awake." He stated.
Lina nodded and brushed back a lock of her blond hair. Her green eyes met Dilandau's red ones and he looked away. "This is Gaea." He whispered.
Dilandau.he wants me to.save him.
"I'm dreaming, " Lina said, suddenly overcome with panic and worry, she lost control of herself, "I'm dreaming. I'm not on Gaea, I can't be here. Why didn't I think before I came here.what-"
Dilandau slapped her. Her head spun around and she looked at the ground. "Snap out of it." He said, a lot colder.
Lina touched her cheek and turned to face Dilandau. He stared at her.
"You're not home anymore, girl. You're here. You are on Gaea." He whispered.
Lina looked down at the ground, feeling tired once again. "The Vione will pick us up." Dilandau stated.
"The what?"
He looked at and rolled his eyes. "Baka." He muttered.
Lina leapt up, "Well excuse me! It's not everyday I get warped to a new planet!" she cried.
"I know, but to not know what the Vione is." he trailed off.
"Ahh.!" she yelped, feeling anger.
"I have half a mind to leave you here." He said.
"Well! I've never!"
Dilandau mimicked her, "Weird way you talk."
"You.bitch!"
"Stupid."
"You silver fish!"
"Freak."
"Red eyed freak!"
"Go away."
Lina was overcome by anger so she leaned over and slapped Dilandau. He glared at her.
"You.You slapped me!" he exclaimed.
Lina looked at her hand and back down at the ground, "Well, you shouldn't have hit me. I'm a women, after all." She countered exclaimed.
"So what?" he said, shrugging.
Lina looked up. Either you could hit women on Gaea or Dilandau didn't care. "Aren't you not suppose to hit women?" Lina cried.
Dilandau shifted in his feet, "You.I.hit you for a reason. You were rambling, " he looked at her, "I don't usually hit women."
Lina relaxed. A man came up to Dilandau.
"Lord Dilandau."
"Yes Miguel?"
"You wished to check the ruins of Fanelia?"
"Yes. Where else would Van hide besides the ruins of his old home?"
Dilandau picked up Lina and dragged her through the woods, finally breaking into a clearing. It was the ruins of a city. The ashs were circled at dead bodies and the buildings rotting and melted. Lina felt herself grow dizzy and all of a sudden she was looking at the city it use to be like. People were milling around, children were playing and happy lovers strolling around. Lina looked at Dilandau and saw the look in his eyes. Happiness. He was happy Fanelia was gone. Lina was sure of it.
"You're.happy?"
Dilandau looked at her, "Of course. I've destoryed a country of cowards and now will destroy their coward king." He turned back to the wreckage.
Lina slid her hand into his and starred straight ahead. She felt Dilandau move his hand around and she glanced at him. A look of doubt had washed over him.
He's worried about holding my hand.
Lina held it tighter and he looked at her. She smiled and he looked away. Lina wondered if he was blushing at all.
"ATTACK! ATTACK OF DRAGONS!" a voice screamed.
"It was a trap." Dilandau muttered.
He drew his sword and they ran down to the wreckage. A dead solider slumped against Lina and she grabbed his sword. At once, a dragon burst through a wall. Lina screamed and Dilandau pulled on her. They ran through the streets. They stopped at a pathway.
"I'll take the dragon on the right!" he cried and ran forward.
The dragon ran toward Lina. Lina screamed and jumped. She flew up in the air and brought her sword down into the dragon, who's blood fell all over her. Dilandau grabbed her arm again and they ran quicker.
"Hurry!" he screamed.
Into the forest they ran, farther away from Fanelia. The dragon's roar faded away until it couldn't be heard. Lina fell to the forest ground and Dilandau slumped against the tree.
"Damn you, Van. DAMN YOU!" he shrieked.
Lina looked at herself, covered in dragon blood. "Huh?" he muttered to Lina.
Dilandau leaned next to her and lifted her chin. "You slayed a dragon. Even I can't do that." He whispered.
Lina breathed harder, partly from shock, partly from being scared. "How did you do that?" Dilandau whispered.
At once, Lina found herself crying. The tears mixed with the dragon's blood and she was sobbing.
"I never should of came here! I was too caught up in stupid fantasy of another world! I never thought it would be this bad. I'm so STUPID!" she screamed.
A rage to herself over took her. "I'm so STUPID!" she shrieked and all of a sudden, the dragon's blood ran off her body and grew bright red.
The redness turned into fire and shot out at a nearby tree which burned down. Dilandau looked at the tree and then back at her.
"Lina.!"
Lina sobbed even louder, "What it wrong with me!? Why did I want to come here? All there is is hate! Why?!"
A fireball shot out her eyes and another tree burned down. "She's pryo." Dilandau said.
"I don't want to BE ANYTHING!" Lina said and started sobbing.
Any emotion she had ever held in came tumbling out. She sobbed and sobbed. "Lina.don't cry." he whispered.
Lina cried harder when she felt his arms go around her, "Don't Lina." He whispered.
Lina's childhood swept back. Always alone.always different. Like this destiny had been waiting to ruin her life even more.
For once, Lina didn't hold back. "Lina." he whispered, as though he wanted to say something.
"I've.I'm always alone!"
"I've been too." He whispered to her.
Lina clutched onto Dilandau, holding him tightly. She sobbed into his neck, crying and shrieking.
"Send me back.please." she whispered to him.
Dilandau raised her chin to his face, "I can't.When you came here, it was like the gods were mending the gap for you to come here."
"Well.MAKE THEM MEND IT AGAIN!" Lina shrieked.
Dilandau's pale skin brought out his red eyes, "I.I can't!"
"You can't.or you won't?" Lina muttered.
Dilandau looked at the sky, "I."
He whispered the response. Then he looked down at her.
"What?" she whispered.
He pulled away from her, "Sleep. We have a busy day tomorrow."
There were two shadows. One was Dilandau who was sitting at a table. Another one was Folken. He turned to her and shook his head. "Will I be meeting you tomorrow?" "She wants to go back to Gaea." "Oh does she? Too bad. I heard the moles wish to eat her." Dilandau shook his head, "Keep you and the moles after her. I don't mind her." Folken chuckled, "Don't mind her? I thought you l-"
Lina woke up with a start. She gasped for breath and some strange boy was shaking her.
"Miss?" he said.
Lina remebered him as the boy from the other day, Miguel. "I'm awake." She said, tired.
Miguel laughed, "I can tell miss."
"Just..just call me Lina."
Miguel nodded, "Ok..Lina. I'm Miguel."
She nodded, "Nice to meet you."
"Lord Dilandau is waiting for you by his guymelif."
Lina just nodded.
Lina walked up to Dilandau who was talking to Miguel and a few other boys. She felt unsure of herself knowing she would have to get to know other people on this planet, Gaea. Miguel made a coughing noise and Dilandau turned around.
"Lina, you're awake."
Lina nodded. "We will be heading into the Vione. I suppose you don't know how to pilot a guymelif?"
Lina nodded no. "Miguel will be taking you in a small ship. The others will be in our guymelifs."
Dilandau turned back to the group.
Miguel tugged on her arm and she gave one last look at Dilandau.
He seems so annyoed with me.
Her dream came flooding back.
"I don't mind her."
A dream was just a dream after all. The End Look for #4!
