Chapter 5
It was an hour before dawn when the group awoke to begin their journey. Once again, Destiny climbed up onto Heero's horse, and awaited the ride. "You all know that as soon as we step past those trees, we're no longer protected by magic," Wufei started. "It's important that we all understand this." The small groups nodded as the Ranger looked at each one in turn. "Alright then, let's move."
Hilde sighed in relief as she exited the forest to see the Sank Kingdom. She had been traveling for quite a few days, and its wear was showing. Stumbling, she made her way to the palace gates. "Halt, state your name and business." A voice called. Hilde turned to see a young guard step in front of her. "Hilde Shbiker, I've come to speak with The King and Priestess about Duo Maxwell." The guard narrowed his eyes. "The Maxwell boy left days ago with small group going to Iven Grove." "Iven Grove? Isn't that home of Forest Elves?" Hilde wondered, confused as to why Duo would be going there. The guard sighed, and motioned her to follow him. "It's obvious the King and Queen of the Shadow Elves have sent you to discover where there son is, and since you obviously won't believe me, I'll take you to the King and Priestess." Hilde followed silently behind the guard as he led her past the gates, motioning to the guard on the other side to keep watch. The two walked in silence until they reached the side door to the palace. The guard knocked three times, and a young woman opened the door. She was dresses in servant clothing, with green eyes and flaming red hair. "This is Ray, she will escort you the rest of the way. She going to meet with the King and Priestess, tell them she comes to learn the whereabouts of the Maxwell boy." The guard grunted as he turned and walked back to his post. Ray smiled as she turned to Hilde. "Come this way," she motioned. "I'm sure the King and Priestess will meet with you." Hilde nodded, but said nothing as she followed the servant girl down the hall. It was unobvious why Duo enjoyed coming here, he had always hated being in his own palace at Stepenward. "Here we are." Ray smiled as they stood out side a large door. "If you'll wait one moment, I'll tell them you're here." The girl finished as she disappeared through the large door. Hilde looked around while she waited. She was surprised when she noticed a large painting of the Peacecraft family with an unknown group of elves. It was obvious they were Forest Elves, but exactly who were they? "The Yuy family." A female voice spoke. Hilde turned sharply to see a woman with purple hair that hung down over one eye. She was dressed as a high official in the Sank Kingdom's army. "What did you say?" "The Yuy family. The Peacecrafts have known them since the birth of Tri. My name is Lucrecia Noin, but I prefer Noin." The woman, now known as Noin remarked as she to, looked up at the painting. Suddenly the door opened, and Ray wandered out. "They will see you now. Oh, Mrs. Noin, did you have some business?" "Yes, I'll just go in now and wait, I'm sure our business is connected in one form or another." Noin said as she looked from Ray to Hilde. Ray nodded, and stepped aside for the two to enter. As soon as they were inside, the young servant closed the doors behind them.
The mist swirled around the picture of Heero and Destiny as they rode along. Laughter echoed in the small room, accompanied by various hisses from the shadows. A figure cloaked in a dark rode watched the scene intently. "Yes, come as fast as you can, for you two will shape the future of the lands. No longer will the Sank Kingdom rule, but my kingdom will soon rise, and the Northland shall rule." It laughed. Small creatures scurried out the shadows and larger creatures hissed their delights. It wouldn't be long before they would begin their hunt for the two elves, and then begin their journey into the remaining lands. Blood would be spilt in vast quantities before the end, and it suited their tastes just fine. For these were creatures of the night, creatures who lived for the chance to kill, and they had finally found the master who would give them that chance.
Destiny paused in her humming. Something was wrong, and she could feel it. A feeling burned inside her, and it was frightening. Heero stopped his horse. He to felt a strange force. "What's wrong Heero?" Brisk asked as she pulled on the reigns to her horse. Heero held up his hand as he dismounted his horse, helping Destiny down after him. The two stood away from the group, letting the wind wash over them. "What is it?" Destiny asked, her tone frightened. "I don't know, it feels like." "A calling." Destiny finished.
"What's going on?" Duo asked, his first words in hours. Brisk breathed deeply. "They're being called." "Called?" "Duo, do you remember when I told you I thought Destiny was being watched? Well, it has begun. The Northland calls them to it, it seeks their power." Everyone turned just in time to see the two elves collapse to the ground. "Heero! Destiny!" They cried as they rushed over to the fallen Forest Elves. "What's happened to them?" Duo asked as Quatre placed his hand on the two's foreheads. "They've been put to sleep. It seems the evil of the North only wants its call heard." Quatre frowned. Brisk's forehead wrinkled as she looked at the two sleeping figures. "Quatre, are they at a great risk?" "What do you mean, your Highness?" "I'm going to see their visions," she paused. "I have to know what's going on." "You can't do that." Brisk looked up at the reply. Trowa looked at her with an impassive expression on his face. She narrowed her eyes at him, untrusting of his words. "And why not? What keeps me from doing so?" "If you were to interfere with them, the same spell would fall upon you. It's not worth it Princess. This is a test for Heero and Destiny. It is here that they must decide their path. Either they will succumb, or they will rise above it."
"Will they fail sister?" "It is unsure. They are strong in their paths of good though." A female paused. A small beam of light cut through the trees and landed upon a pale face. A woman, young in the face, looked at her sisters. Her silvery hair hung down about her, and her gray eyes were unfocused. Out of her back were large, clear wings with a silvery glint as they caught traces of the sunlight. All around her, similar winged women crowded toward the water she stood in. Her name was Musume Seimeino.(1) As her charge in life, Musume was born into the world to keep charge over the two most powerful children of the earth, Heero Yuy, and Destiny Antaxs. With her powerful visions of the future, she was to keep the two children out of danger, however, not even she can see everything. "Seimei?"(2) Another farie called. She was slightly older, her light purple hair was shoulder length, and her eyes we matched perfectly. She stared at the smaller fairy as she started to shake. "Some.things.happening.."
Chisa:Done!!! Jair:Whose the faries? Chisa:My secret. Par: How are they your secret? Chisa:They'll play a big role as the story continues! (Hint, Hint)
