Remember.finish the song...remember.love. those words once meaningless to herself now started to cause pain in her mind and in her heart looking up at the castle as it came into sight, tears flowing down her cheeks at her friends death and his words not caring about who was bad and who was good, or the calling Celest had drawn to her, everything inside of her telling her not to go near Van to stay away, she glanced down towards the red light that now illuminated the way.

She narrowed her eyes angrily reaching her hand up and grasping it tightly in her hand wincing from the pain, not stopping her run towards where Van was, a muffled voice was singing in the back of her mind but she couldn't hear it, her hand feeling as if a flame was in it, burning away but no marks where made, Remember the rest of the song...

"I'm trying.." she cried out everything that happened starting to slip form her mind again, as it always did, now knowing it was because she was remembering to much. remembering.love, then she thought about remembering the words before, from the start and so, she listened to the soft voice singing, a voice she didn't recognize yet.

~Follow my love, follow me heart, together we shall be, only in dreams forgotten, With wings I'll carry you to my heart, back again, how could you forget?

Our love I thought was eternal, but now it's been imprisoned, come back to my love Into the darkness you run, deaths grip ever lingering. And all I hear is your voice, calling out to me, why can't I answer? Release me, set me free as you fall away from here~

"Release me, set me free as you fall away.away from here...now what? What's the last verse?!" She cried aloud as she entered the gates to the kingdom, the walls where tall and seeming foreboding to enter.

There where no guards...nothing to block the way of her to enter, looking up at the castle once more, to vans room...seeing the light suddenly turn on she blinked but didn't stop running.

**********************************************************************

Van sat up suddenly seeing a light form in his room blinking wondering how, he had turned out all the lights, and glanced around. It was eerie though, it wasn't a very bright light, compared to a torch, or a fireplace, it came from no source, illuminating the room in a light blue hue.

"Who's there?" he asked as the door seemed to close, no, it hadn't even opened had it? He didn't know confused slightly then blinked as he heard a small laugh beside his bed, and turning quickly towards it saw..

"Hitomi? what are you...I mean.not that I.Uhh...hi" he smiled sitting to face her, seeing her soft smile as she watched him. "I remember you now." she said in a soft hushed voice never getting louder then a whisper, mesmerized by her face, and her words he blinked then smiled softly.

"You do?.." He asked for a moment not able to believe that suddenly she would remember, but she nodded reassuringly, reaching out her hand and placing it onto his cheek.

Van winced slightly, her touch was cold like ice, but he didn't care, it was only an instant reaction, his smile coming back as he placed his hand over hers. But now as he stared into her eyes, he couldn't help but feel he wasn't in control of himself, or his thoughts, slowly leaning forwards and kissing her softly, so glad to have her back. He opened his eyes and didn't even notice, or his mind wouldn't allow him to see, her eyes where a shade of blue, no longer Hitomi's eye colour, but he saw her as Hitomi not complaining.

"I've missed you.." She whispered softly as she sat there and let out a small laugh as she brushed away a few strands of her hair from her face. She seemed so frail, and innocent, and he couldn't help but admire her beauty.

"I missed you too.." he spoke in a whisper to not knowing why, and then held her in a soft embrace, not noticing the door open.

************************************************************************

"because..our love will always stay.forever in our memory" Hitomi let out a small laugh as she ran into the castle, careful not to wake anyone as she ran forwards and towards the staircase.

This place no longer was as dark and barren, and unknown as it was before, a wave of remembrance flushing through her thoughts, looking down at the dragon pendent that now turned a solid black, and materialized away form sight with a faint cry, the song playing over and over in her mind, and now she recognized the voice, tears streaming down her cheeks as she realized, it was herself, she had forgotten herself, not only her love for van, something that could never be forgotten forever.

"I remember you, I remember myself, I remember Fanelia I remember Gaea and the mystic moon" she stopped as merle watched her, blocking her path Hitomi grasped her shoulders in excitement and pulled her close in a hug

"I remember you!" she cried out with joy as she let her go and ran towards Vans room, Merle didn't move blinking like mad as she watched Hitomi run off, then narrowed her eyes as a head poked out from the ground and she raised her clawed foot smashing it down onto mole-mans head

"You.! Stupid-idiot! You're going to ruin the staircase!!!!!" she screamed

"aiyeeeeee" he screamed as he fell back down the long tunnel.

"Van?" Hitomi called out as she reached his door and opened it without haste but gasped seeing Van alright but he was now kissing none other then...Celest..

"I.van? I don't understand." she shook her head stepping back through the door, no tears of joy came from her eyes but ones of pain

"Hitomi...but.." Van gasped as he pushed Celest away seeing her for who she really was but it was to late, seeing Hitomi run from the room, he snapped his gaze to celest, who was smirking at him and slowly standing.

"I told you I would have you Van, and now, she will never love you" she let out a soft laugh, her voice never raising above a whisper and stroked his cheek but he pulled away, and started after Hitomi Hoping to repair the damage he has done.
