Ch. 13 ~ Intimate
The rain outside poured down mercilessly and pounded lightly against the rooftop. The fenviroment otuside was indulged in a wave of meloncholy. Each drop of bitter sorrow had meaning.
Ira's long fingers traced the new foreign object, which had been clasped into the empty silver lining of her necklace. Though vivid visions and dreams had clarified a few things, the true situation and mission was still somewhat unknown. Even her own identity was not entirely clear to her.
"Lady Ira", Seizm mumbled in her ear. "Each and every vision has a pivotal meaning. Be sure to consult me every time you encounter a new scene…"
She sighed in response and leaned her head against his chest. "Forgive me", she replied softly. "I am so….confused. These visions…these dreams are eluding me." As she said this, she felt him stir, and his heart beat a little bit faster.
"Yes, I am aware. But…understand that this is my duty. It is my mission. It is your mission. I must make it certain that you can delay the collision between Orpheus and Earth. And for that to happen, you must understand yourself."
Ira looked up into his eyes and tilted her head a bit with uncertainty. "And in order to make sure that I understand myself, you stalk me…" There was a hint of light amusement in her voice, and for the frist time, the dark and mysterious Seizm let out a soft chuckle.
"Protecting you before you are able to do so yourself is a piece of my duty as well.", he muttered simply, and shook his beautiful hair away from his eyes. "That's all"
A weary smile crept onto the girl's face as she heard his laughter. "As I thought you were never able to even smile…" She reach up and touched his hair. It was soft and favorable to her touch.
Seizm shuddered slightly. It had been so long since he had last been so close to another being. The feeling of her delicate skin against his, sent rushes of warmth through him. He had never felt such sentiments, but then there were a lot of things he had not experienced. He had experienced passioon, yes, but passionate what? Passionate anger and rage. This was all he received from Ahraune.
"Seizm…?", Ira called in a wispery level.
"Hm", he jerked away from the dark thoughts he had been clinging onto, and focused his attention to the lady lying next to him. "What is it"
"Lady of the Omega. Omega of what?"
He pulled her closer to him. "The moon"
Frowning deeply, Ira turned her head to look at him. Her blue eyes were filled with sudden confusion. "The moon…? What has that got to do with…Orpheus?"
"Oh…Ira. Orpheus has much to do with the moon. As a matter of a fact…Orpheus IS the moon", Seizm paused and coughed, allowing the information sink into the girl's mind. Then he continued. "In the past, Orpheus and the Earth collided. However, this was after Experiment O was created. Experiment O was created to stop the collision between Orpheus and the Earth. The result of the collision was the moon. What was left of the planet Orpheus became the now present day moon. You were created to go stop the collision, however the time was miscalculated. And so now you have been born into a time much later…" He stopped and looked down at her.
"And now…you want me to go back to the past…and stop the collision?", her voice shattered here and there as she spoke. "I don't know….how"
"That is where your visions will play a part", he replied simply and leaned in close to her until he was face to face. "Never fear fate"
