1.1 Part Two: A bright light
Yukari saw Hitomie slowly walk to her next class. Hitomie was so sad lately, at first Yukari thought it had to do with Chris leaving soon, but that can't be it. She barely even talked to him, Yukari wondered at first if he tried something after the party but when she asked Hitomie just looked at her with her blank eyes and said no. "That's it." Yukari muttered to herself, "That girl is going to talk!" She ran up to Hitomie and slung an arm around her shoulder. "Hey! How 'bout we ditch math and go out for ice-cream?"
Hitomie just shrugged and followed her out of the school. Yukari chatted the entire way, talking about Amano and how upset they were going to be when Chris went back home to Canada
Hitomie listened with half an ear, she didn't care if Chris went back to Canada, if it wasn't for him, she would still have Van.
When they got to the ice cream place, Yukari looked at Hitomie and frowned. "That's it, you are going to tell me what is going on before I beat it out of you!"
She dragged Hitomie to a table in the corner and sat down. "Okay, spill."
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Is it about a guy?"
Hitomie lowered her eyes.
"It is! Okay now who would it be?" Yukari sat there, think aloud. "It's not Chris, because you don't even talk to him anymore, you haven't dated anyone else…" Yukari's eyes grew wide. "Is, is it Amano? If it is, I am so sorry, I would never have dated him if I thought that you still liked him, I swear, I thought you were over him!" Yukari's eyes filled with tears.
Hitomie reached out and clasped her best friend's hand. "It's not Amano. It's a boy I met, a long time ago. We, we have lost contact with each other."
Yukari sighed, "Is that all? Why don't you just call him?"
"I can't, it's long distance."
"How long?"
"About two worlds." Hitomie laughed at Yukari's startled face, "I'll explain, remember when Amano decided to leave for England? And I wanted him to watch me run? Remember that beam of light? Well, that's where it begins……"
Hitomie then told Yukari everything, about Gaea, about the war, even about Van. When she was done, Yukari sniffed and wiped her eyes.
"That's so romantic, and you have had a connection ever since?"
"Yes, that is, until the night of the party. Chris and I kissed and, it was gone. I couldn't feel him anymore."
"Oh, that's so sad, I'm sorry for pressuring you Hitomie."
"That's okay, I needed to get it out, we better get back to school, or Miss. Henderson is going to flip!"
It was in the middle of her English class, when Hitomie felt the pain; it started in the middle of her chest and traveled throughout her body. Chris saw her keel forward and called out to the teacher.
Hitomie lay there, barely breathing. Miss. Henderson sent a student out to call an ambulance. Yukari and Chris sat beside her, Yukari was crying while Chris tried to feel for a pulse. All of a sudden, Hitomie's body began to glow as she sat up. Her hair became pale as snow and whirled around her as if there was a wind in the musty classroom, she looked around and the students could see her eyes.
"They're black." Whispered Chris, and it was true. Hitomie's eyes were as black as coal, and she began to mutter in a strange language. Her body bowed back and Chris could here the words she said.
"A maiden between worlds, will vanquish the dark.
And bring light to a bleak King's heart.
But beware, for not all things are true.
A thief, and a girl you once knew.
A hero will rise, then fall at the end.
And a queen will cry, alongside her Kings bed.
A boy who is where he should not be.
And a girl, who sees things that she should not see.
A young one, still in love, but hides it in fear.
And a knight, who does too much for those he holds dear.
These are the players, in this game of fate.
Don't forget what you've learned, before it's too late."
The entire room gasped as a bright blue light, so familiar to Hitomie, shot down and claimed her. Yukari smiled as she thought (she will be back with her love.) But Chris was not so docile, he jumped into the light, just as it was leaving and he too was sucked into Gaea.
Author's note: Ooooh, what's going to happen now? Why is Chris in Gaea too? And what's up with that poem? All will be revealed in good time my friends. Ha ha!
