Hitomi ran as fast as she could down the halls, and then, having gone to
wrong way, now climbed up a flight of spiralling stairs, not caring where
they lead, only wanting to get away form here, away form him, wanting to go
home, but not knowing how. Her pace never slowing down, not hearing Van as
he called out to her to stop, trying to explain, but it didn't matter
anymore.
Why did this have to happen? Just when she remembered! Why, he didn't love her he was just like...like...well, in a weird way like Allen, but more of a player, now at the tops of the stairs, realizing she was in a tower, glancing around seeing there where only two ways out...the staircase, and the window, but she didn't feel like taking another fall.
Now hearing Van come, backing away from the steps as she waited for him to appear, and after what seemed forever he did, turning her back to him as she watched the world below, the sun was starting to rise now, but ever so slightly, hardly able to be seen, the land seeming filled with dark shadows, things hidden, why couldn't this have been?!
"Hitomi...I.." His words caused her to wince, but still she didn't move, just staring out at the world below, her bottom lip trembling but she said and did nothing, hearing him sigh and his soft footsteps coming towards her slowly, his breaths where heavy and deep, not realizing hers was as well, her heartbeat heard drumming loudly in her ears but that did not stop her from hearing every other sound close to her, waiting in silence.
"I swear, I didn't want that! I mean, I didn't know that it was...I mean." He didn't know what he meant which only made his futile attempts cause her to get angry, narrowing her eyes but not glancing away from the horizon.
"Please you have to believe me. I-"But he was cut off as she whirled around.
Her gaze as cold as ice, watching him bitterly and with no pity or remorse. Thinking nothing good about him at the moment, not caring, but knowing deep down she would regret every single one, simply shrugging.
"Oh please save it for someone who cares! You said you loved me, and even when I forgot you I didn't betray that love! Now look at you.I trusted you.I.." she held back the sobs that fought there way towards her, he reached out his hands to comfort her, but she drew back into the wall and motioned him to leave her be.
"I swear I thought it was you.."
Her mouth gaped open slightly from shock of hearing that and let out a laugh" Oh.oh I see, you thought it was ME!? Ha that's funny!, and is that supposed to comfort me Van Fennel! The next girl that comes around might look like me to, although I see no resemblance between Celest and myself! But then again it doesn't matter, cause it's what YOU saw!" her eyes now small narrowed slits as they gazed at him coldly
He didn't know what to say.she had been angry at him before, remembering she had a good backhand and how it stung for a while, keeping a slight distance, ready for her to hit him anytime now, but nothing came and he sighed.
"I can't explain this, but I swear, I saw you not celest, believe me Hitomi, I never would have done anything to hurt you.."
"It's a little late for that now isn't it?... the damage is done...leave me alone" she whispered, inside screaming at herself, to go to him, to just let this all go, but her anger dominated for now turning back to look out the window she could see him, she couldn't cry in front of him drawing in a breath, now the sun was able to illuminate most of the grassland and forest treetops that surrounded this sanctuary called Fanelia.
There was a long silence as no one spoke or moved; there breaths even seemed to be stopped, then Van began to speak once more but Hitomi silence his words instantly even before he even made a single sound.
"Look I'm sorry-"again she silenced him raising her hand seeming to be watching something.
"Hitomi won't you..." But this time he shut himself up as she watched the horizon, the daylight was shining down now, but a dark shadow was now creeping over the planes and through the gaps seen in the forest.
Shining black armour that glittered faintly in the suns brightening rays, the faint sound of marching as the black dragon armies' soldiers grew nearer and nearer, like a wave, or the plague, sweeping through swiftly and without pause. You could faintly see there flags waver in the chilled breeze of the dawning, and above them, casting a large shadow as it swooped past was a dragon, large and elegant, striking fear into all those who laid there sight upon it, and the faint horns blasting the sound of war, the only warning.
Van and Hitomi watched in silenced awe not knowing what to do or say, her anger diverted from him and now towards celest, knowing that the black and fearsome dragon was her, but not knowing how this could possibly be only knowing what Gallic had managed to tell her before her he slipped from this world, turning around and headed for the stairs, going to warn the people saying nothing to Van as she watched in terror.
