Too busy with school and other junk that is invading my life.

On the Crusade they were repairing from the attack of the Zaibach soldiers. Hitomi wanted to help them find Von, but Allen didn't believe her. So Hitomi was doing a tarot card reading of his past for him to prove that she could help. Merle was lying lazily on a bench to the right of Hitomi. Gaddes was sitting on a backwards chair, watching silently. The mole man was sitting in a corner in a drunken state barely paying attention to the reading. Allen was just watching the cards intently. Teo, Kio and some of the other men was standing outside the door waiting and watching.
'Hitomi, you okay?' Allen asked Hitomi, she hadn't done anything for a little while.
She looked at him, surprised at his sudden question. 'Umm, yes.' Hitomi replied to Allen, she looked down again and closed her eyes in concentration.
I'm just going to spit it out! Justice! Card of judgment Hitomi thought confidently to herself.
'You will.' Hitomi stopped; her mouth wide open. 'Well, in the near future you and your father may be reunited. But, you will dwell on the past and hate him for it. And.' Hitomi looked up at Allen, sweat trickling down her face; she was concerned with the look on Allen's face. 'And. This card. Here.' Hitomi tried to continue, shaking; she couldn't keep her hand from trembling. Allen reached out his hand to hers and stopped it by holding it lightly with his. Allen had his eyes closed. Gaddes was standing behind them, a slight frown on his face.
'Thank you Hitomi, that's enough.' Allen said to Hitomi, he motioned to his men.
'But.but I.' Hitomi started, looking at Allen pleadingly.
Allen put a map down in front of Hitomi, he leaned on the table. 'You pass.' Allen said to Hitomi. 'Now tell us Hitomi, where is Von Fanel?' Allen asked her, smiling at her, Hitomi was staring at him astonished.
She smiled happily. 'Okay!' Hitomi replied happily shaking her head in agreement.

An oil candle was burning, making the only light in the room. Folken was whistling a sad Fanelian song. Von opened his eyes groggily at the sound of the whistling. He suddenly sat straight up, remembering what had happened to him.
'Who's there?' He asked. The man turned around and walked towards him. 'How do you know that Fanelian song?' Von asked angrily. The man's face was shrouded with darkness. Von then saw his sword on the table behind him. Von pushed the man aside and dashed for his sword.
Von grabbed the sword and pulled it out of its sheath, ready to fight. 'Okay, now how about leading me to my Guymelef? Now!'
The man turned around with a little laugh. 'Do you think that the Zaibach soldiers will give in to such threats? You cannot escape from this floating fortress my brother.' The man said calmly.
'If the only way to live is as one of your pawns then.' Von said, he held his swords' blade to his neck, threatening to kill himself. The man quickly pulled out his sword and in a flash of sparks knocked Von's sword away from his neck.
'Never throw your life away for no reason.' The man said austerely to Von, putting his sword away. He dropped his cloak and slid off his shirt in front of Von. He unveiled beautiful white wings.
'B- Brother.' Von chocked out quietly at the site of the wings.
Mystic stopped outside Folken's door. She was reaching her hand to open his door, but pulled it back in hesitation. She knew the boy, Von Fanel was in there with him, maybe they were talking, it was possible he was already awake.
'It's been a long time Von. Ten years isn't it?' Folken asked Von, retying his cloak back over him.
'I'd always believed you had.' Von started, he turned around looking at the ground in shame. 'You hadn't run away from the rite of succession. That you died fighting the dragon. That you didn't turn your back on it. And had fought it to the very end. But I was wrong!' Von yelled angrily turning around to Folken. 'Why are you with Zaibach!? Why did you burn Fanelia to the ground?! Answer me Brother!' Von yelled at Folken from behind him. Folken cracked a smile and laughed.
'Why are you laughing?' Von asked him angrily, his fists were shaking in anger. Von grabbed Folken's shoulder and turned him around to face him. 'Don't laugh!!' Von yelled.
Mystic opened the door and slowly walked in. Both of them stopped that instance and stared at her.
'So you need a soldier to come in here and take care of me Brother?!' Von said. Mystic just looked at him.
'Mystic. What are you doing here?' Folken asked her. She looked at him.
'This. is him?' Mystic asked, looking at Von.
'A. female soldier.?' Von said, studying Mystic's body and blushing deeply.
Folken grabbed Von's shoulder with his mechanical arm. Folken leaned over so he could talk into Von's ear. 'Von, my brother, come with me and serve Dornkirk. The emperor of all Zaibach. There we will set the future back on course.' Folken said into Von's ear. Von gasped as a little pain shot through his body, starting in his neck.
Folken had stabbed him with a needle type object. Von fell to the floor unconscious, Folken stepped out of the way. Mystic walked over to Folken and Von. She could tell Folken was hurt and felt sad that Von was there.
