Author's note: Slayers-not mine. Profits-zilch! Anyways, we're back to real life again. Enjoy! And don't yell at me too bad. I feel like bending the rules a little. Things are gonna happen my way, and maybe not the true Slayers way...so plz forgive me. I think you'll enjoy it in the end tho!
"Lina, are you awake?" Gourry whispered. Lina promptly wished for something to throw at his head.
"Yes, now that you ask!" she hissed back.
"How are you feeling?" Gourry asked as he bent over her.
"I feel like I've died and am finally being punished for all my bad deeds." Gourry winced at her words. "Shit, Gourry, I'm sorry. I didn't remember..." Lina paused before asking, "Exactly how am I alive now?" She watched Gourry's face as he answered.
"Lina, you probably realize you have no heartbeat. Xellos turned you into a Mazoku..." Gourry was completely uncomfortable. "You don't remember yet, do you?"
Lina shook her head and began to contemplate. Her injuries were much improved from yesterday. She supposed being conscious had an effect on how fast Mazokus regenerated. "Wait a minute Gourry! You said that before I died I was found. So then-"
"Xellos decided to bring you back as a Mazoku becuase you said his name. I don't think he'd originally intended to bring you back. But I guess he thought it was revenge or something."
"Revenge," Lina thought. "I'm going to give him a taste of my revenge!"
"Well, shouldn't you get your rest now and regain your strength?" Gourry hesitantly asked as he walked to the door.
Lina chuckled because he looked scared that she would take out her anger on him. "And why shouldn't he be scared? He's right. I would take it out on him...if I could cast spells..." Lina's smile faded and she sighed. "I might as well...maybe I'll remember something else. I feel like there's something important that I have to remember." Gourry nodded and gave her a small smile before leaving the room.
"It's probably the first time he's left my room," thought Lina. "And he hasn't freaked out about me being a Mazoku...at least not yet. Now I understand why Zel is so fixed on getting back to normal." Lina tried to picture herself as Gourry must see her, with the obvious Mazoku eyes. "I'm going to get him back for this!" Lina was awake plotting for a long time before finally succumbing to sleep.
