It is secondly dedicated to all the new characters in the chap and to Mouser … who has left us because her parents are making her move … *Sniff* … I don't think she ever did like me much … and she NEVER ONCE read anything of mine … but anyway~ That's right!!!

Well, this is the first new chapter in a long time so I better quit blabbing … ^_^ … yah… n-e-w~ like … none of you have read it before!!! And you probably wanna see if you're a character … *Beams brightly* Lol~ ok, here it is:
Disclaimer: CrimsonFire runs around the Vione frantically searching for the deed to Escaflowne … she decides making all of those authors characters was a bad idea because while she was drooling over Dallet some one stole it …
Chapter 23: A New Army Arises
Victoria stood on the Melef Hanger with Kiran, Ry, Emperor Pablo, Madina, Miguel, Dallet, Guimel, Gatti, Viole, Chesta, and Folken ... Justin and Kale guarded the door. Dilandau was just getting the 2 new troops he had gathered the night before.
Folken watched Victoria intently … he had never seen the pendant used before so closely and in detail.
Victoria stood perfectly still with her eyes closed, holding the pendant out in front of her.
The 5 generals had agreed that since the Dragon Slayers consisted of mainly 6 (7 with Victoria) soldiers and 1 captain that the second army should be about 5-7 … no more.
The pendant seemed to have a mind of its' own and Victoria tried to concentrate on finding 2 specific people she had in mind (since Dilandau had 2 and Kiran and Ry were already there) and in an instant flash of light 1 girl landed on the floor while the other pillar of light left a figure in a dark corner.
Folken signaled to Ry and Victoria. "Go check out who or what's in that corner … Kiran and I will see to this girl …"
Ry and Victoria drew their swords and cautiously walked over to the dark corner where they could see the outline of some figure.
They heard nibbling and slight growling noises.
"Careful," warned Victoria "it sounds like some sort of wild animal …"
As they came closer they could see it was actually human … it was un-aware of their presence and continued with what ever it was doing.
It was hunched over and in its hands it clutched what appeared to be the most important thing in the world to it.
"It's Female" verified Ry.
"I'll go in and you cover me." answered Victoria.
She rushed in and screamed. Out ran a girl with a half eaten wedge of moldy cheese in her hands. She ran over to the other girl and started poking her with a random stick.
"Waiky, waiky!!! HEHEHEHEHEHE …" the weird … thing? Screeched.
"CHEZZY!!!!" the other one popped up instantly and started cackling.
The 2 new comers looked at the assembled group in the corner with their eyes bugged out.
The first one (the one in the corner nibbling moldy cheese) had well- toned skin and was about 5'6 … with mysterious hazel colored eyes and short black hair.
The second one looked similar but had silver colored eyes and was a little bit taller with long hair … (5'7)! You could see that they were related.
They both cackled and hopped around saying weird phrases once and a while … all of them were too freaked out except Victoria to move. She took her first cautious step and asked …
"Chezzy? Chichirui?"
They stopped and the 1st stepped up, put on the most serious face ever, and simply said "poop".
Victoria smiled and loosened up, even though that was a very weird thing to say. "It is you Chez!!!" She ran up and ruffled the younger girl's hair.
She smiled broadly at the other girl too. "Chiru?"
"Squeegeez … who're you? … boing …"
Victoria glowed … "CrimsonFire!"
They both gasped and started laughing insanely.
"HEHEHEHEHEHEHE~ HAR, HAR, HAR!!! Squirrels and flying potatoes!!!" (wonder who that is? … lol)
Madina snorted during laughter, which caused everyone else to laugh.
Victoria calmed them down enough to explain everything and point at the people standing in a corner.
"These are my friends! And if you come with me they want you to be part of that army I told you about …"
"Wwwwwweeeeeee!!!" cried Chez.
Chez and Chiru stopped mid-step and asked if they could have a different names other then Chezzy and Chichirui. Victoria rolled her eyes and agreed.
Victoria stopped in-front of them all and pointed to every individual. She said all of them from Kiran, the DS, to Folken and Emperor Pablo. Chez smiled broadly at Viole who couldn't seem to contain his laughter or staring at her.
"Wazza so funny?" Chez asked with huge, innocent eyes.
Viole turned bright red and smiled charmingly down at her. "I've never met any one like you before … er … what's you're name???"
She smiled and addressed them all "You can call me Shay!!!"
Chichirui budded in "And me, Ciari!!!!"
After every one was introduced they decided to trust Victoria's judgment ~ however weird it may be …
That's when Dilandau came in with 3 girls behind him.
One was 14 with greenish brown eyes, reddish brown hair, 5`9, slim and tanned. Her name was Kenju … and soon to be found out as an impulsive, crazy, pyromaniac who's good with knives.
The second was 18. She had hazel eyes as well and dark brown hair with golden highlights in them. It went past her shoulders but was pulled up into a tight pony-tail that suited her very well. Her name was Kit Suzukki …
The last one was older then the other two. She was in her mid-20's … she has long, blonde hair and crystal blue eyes. She was very pretty … but she kept herself modest looking. She was about 5`8 …
Dilandau rolled his eyes and pushed the last one in-front of Folken.
"I found her when I found Kenju ~ she insisted on coming to see you … she says she has an urgent message for you but she refuses to say anything else … she is not to be part of the new army and is your responsibility, Folken." he said gruffly.
Folken nodded as approval to the 2 other girls and, after taking a look back at Victoria, offered his arm to the girl, showing her to his library.
The girl told Folken her name was Willow … she was traveling to Fanelia when the attack came. Her father was killed but she survived and had something very important to tell him …
He closed his eyes at the memory of his home and family. Salty tears threatened to spill down his cheeks.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Victoria turned Ry's palm up and placed the pendant in it.
"You can go get your things now … remember what I told you … don't be caught, ok?"
Ry smiled "Don't worry …" and he faded into the same mystical pillar of light.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Emperor Pablo!" Victoria called, running up to him.
"Yes?"
"Heh … what do you think of the new recruits??? And I had an idea I wanted to share with you …"
Pablo's face went like this: ( oO;;;;;;;;;; ) … at the thought of the 2 girls Victoria chosen. He coughed and announced he approved of Kenju and Kit.
Victoria sweat dropped and caught the clue~ Ciari and Shay would prove themselves though …
"Heh … I was also thinking … what happens to the prisoners of Zaibach, Lord?"
"They rot in the dungeon." Pablo answered simply.
"Well, I was thinking Zaibach could use a torturer … and executioner if you will …"
Pablo's eyebrow rose at the idea and he grinned. "That's a great idea! Bring him hear at once …"
Heh … he'll be here tomorrow, Sire … right now the pendant is being used else where …"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Willow and Folken sat down in his library. Folken took his usual armchair and Willow took a seat on the couch across from him.
"It's so cozy, and homely …" sighed Willow, looking around the spacious, dimly lit room.
Folken blushed lightly. He didn't have much company on the Vione, save the occasional visit from Victoria and meetings with warlords …
He tilted his head up and met her clear, cerulean eyes. A weary smile tugged at the corner of her lips.
He got up and loomed over her.
"It's been a long journey for you," he said courteously "you should rest before you tell me about this message."
She stood up and looked at her feet. She came up to about Folken's shoulder.
Folken motioned to Kale, the most trusted guard next to Justin.
"Please escort Willow to one of the new rooms that has been installed and is ready."
"Of course." he bowed.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
On Earth, with Ry … :
Ry looked around the corner post next to his house. Their were 2 big trucks outside. He saw a girl his age by the fence dabbing her face with a hanker-chief. Ry sneaked around her and ran up the stairs to his room because, since his parents car wasn't their, no one would be home.
He grabbed all sorts of clothes and his guitar, taking his Oakley's off his bedside table and putting them on to cover his eyes. He went into his dad's bathroom and (A/N: Hehehehehe) picked up some razors and shaving cream … LOL!!! He put all of it in his bag and ran outside ~ he quietly walked up to the girl who was still there … crying silently.
"Ry!" she cried and ran to hug him, but he drew back.
"I came to say good bye." he said solemnly.
The girl looked down.
"I love you … I'll never forget you …"
"I won't forget you either." said Ry turning, even though he knew he didn't mean it.
The girl watched until her parents called her. She climbed into the truck and put her face to the window as she was taken to her new home.
Ry smiled. He was going where he belonged … Zaibach~
He closed his eyes and let the blue light engulf him.
On the Vione he landed neatly on his feet. He walked to Victoria's room to give her the pendant. The new rooms were installed and he would no longer share the room with Victoria and Kiran. Ry had his own large room now~ identical to Victoria's, save it was a man's room and on the floor above hers.
A/N: FFFWWWEEEEEHHHH~ That was long … but, I had a lot to write so … heh~ the name of the army will be the "Destiny Army" as you'll see in the next chap and I would have written more but this is already like 6 pages … uhm~ next chap their will be another character … the torturer/executioner … and this chap was NEW!!! I hope you liked it … under this I'll put a key of new characters and old ones and what rooms they have~ and for the ones named after authors I'll say which author it is, k?
These three share a room:
Shay- (Mrchezzysnickers)
Ciari- (Chichirui)
Kiran- (ElvenChild)
These three share a room:
Kit Suzukki- ShadowKat
Willow- (Kay Noel)
Kenju- (Kenju-Shin)
Victoria- (CrimsonFire)~ her own room~ in Slayers' Hall …
Emperor Pablo- (Pablo/Cecil)~ very fancy room of his own …
Captain Ry- (Navi) … has his own room~ floor about Victoria's …
Madina (Thundersenshi17) - own special room in the back of the Melef Hanger.
These three share a room:
Guimel
Viole
Gatti
These three share a room:
Miguel
Chesta
Dallet
OK!!! Until next chapter!!! ~CrimsonFire
