Chapter 4: Just like the old days
" Xelloss!!!!!!!Namagomi!!Come back here!!!!" A loud voice pierced through the quiet night...well, not very quiet night. Lina, Filia, Amelia, Xellos, Gourry and Sylphiell were at a night fair. " Nyah nyah, you cannot catch me!" Xellos sang as he wove through the crowd with Filia hot on his heels waving a plastic hammer.
" Brr...It's cold..." Amelia shivered.
" Gourry-san...I'm cold." Slyfiell whined as she moved nearer to Gourry, and he, being the gallant jellyfish swordsman he once was who went around saving damsels in distress placed his arm around Sylfiell.
Sylfiell blushed. " Arigato, Gourry-kun."
Lina glared furiously at the couple from behind. Why that bitch....She thought angrily. She didn't hate Sylfiell, in fact they were good friends, but jealousy can make a girl do things she never thought she would do.
" Why don't you tell Gourry that you like him?" Amelia asked.
" Nani?? Never!" Lina shouted. " Wait a minute...What makes you think that i like that jellyfish?" She blushed madly.
Amelia giggled. " It's very obvious. Only Gourry is such a jellyfish that he doesn't realise it."
Lina grumbled under her breath. " Food...I need food. Oi! Gourry, let's go get us osme food!" She yelled as she dashed forward suddenly, grabbing Gourry's arm and pulling him along.
" Ah? Sylfiell-san, what would you like?" He asked as Lina dragged him forward.
Sylfiell sweatdropped. " Why is Lina acting so weirdly?"
Amelia smiled. " She's in love!"
" With who?" A voice asked from behind.
" Eyyaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!" Amelia and Sylfiell screamed. Amelia spun around and swung her fist at the culprit.
" In the name of justice I shall not allow you to scare helpless girls like that!" she screamed.
" Ouch...You call this helpless?" the person grumbled.
" Garv? Phibrizo??" Amelia asked.
" Hai." Garv muttered. His cousin snickered as he helped hm up.
"Quit laughing! You wouldn't be laughing if you had been socked in the nose!" He snapped.
" Say...Who's Lina in love with?" Phibrizo asked.
" Go...Mrummph!" Amelia was about to say when someone shoved a bun into her mouth.
" None of your buisness!" Lina shrieked. " Ah...Garv? Phirbrizo?"
Lina frowned. She didn't know that they would come. Well, they didn't seem like the type who went to night fairs. They had changed much, since their past life. Phibrizo had grown up. He wasn't a nine- year old kid, but a sixteen-year-old teenage boy with shoulder length black hair and bright green eyes. Lina had been quite amused when she first saw Phibrizo, it was quite exciting seeing the grown-up form of him. Garv, now the vice- captain of the kendo team sported short spiky red hair held up by a bandanna. Garv was seventeen, but he stayed back a year due to lousy results, which wasn't surprising, considering the time he spent hanging out in bars and pubs. Lina's thoughts were disrupted when Garv stuck his head in front of her.
"Yo. Whatcha thinking bout?" He asked.
" Aarrhhh!" Lina shrieked.
Garv sweatdropped. " Sheesh, calm down."
Phibrizo laughed. " So Lina-chan, are you coming to our Halloween party tomorrow?"
" I..."
" Yare yare, isn't it Garv and Phibby?"
" Eh? Oh it's the fruitcake from yesterday." Garv said, cocking his head to one side.
" Who are you calling Phibby?" Phibrizo snapped.
" Do you remember me, Mei-ou-sama?" Xellos asked cheekily.
" Mei-ou..." Phibzo muttered, his eyes suddenly distant.
" Xellos!" Lina yelled.
Xellos opened his eyes and smiled evilly. " What's wrong, Lina- chan, are you scared?"
Lina shivered. " Quit it!"
" Hrumph...I would certainly remember a fruitcake like you if I saw you before." Phibrizo retorted.
Xellos closed his eyes again. " Are you sure? Do you remember..." His words were cut off when someone slammed a hammer on his head.
" Die! NAMAGOMI!" Filia roared as she whacked him repeatedly on his head.
" Itai...Filia-chan. You're so violent." Xellos winced.
" Die! Have a taste of the power of Mace-sama!" Filia screamed.
Lina sweatdropped. She half expected to see a tail stick out of Filia's skirt.
Sudden;y, Filia screamed. " Hentai! Eechi! Pervert! AHHHHHH"
Lina facefaulted when she saw Gourry lift up Filia's skirt and peer upwards.
" EH??" He yelped. " I...I didn't do it on purpose!" He shouted, backing away.
" Gourry-san! I...I...How could you do this to me???" Sylfiell wailed as she ran away, sobbing madly.
" Gourry-san! How dare you! In the name of justice I shall not allow you violate innocent girls! And to think I always thought that you were a good and pure man!" Amelia yelled accusingly, and started preaching Gourry on the injustice of hentainess while Filia started to whack Gourry.
Lina couldn't help it. The sight of Gourry being whacked by Filia's plastic hammer was too much for her to take. She collapsed onto the floor, laughing her guts out. Xellos was laughing too, while Garv and Phibrizo merely stared.
" Just like the old times..." Lina sighed after she finally stopped laughing. " Ne, Gourry, why did you peek under Filia's skirt?"
" Gourry moaned from the floor. " I don't know...I...I thought that she would have a tail"
" A tail!?" Filia shrieked. " What do you think I am? An animal?"
" No...A dragon." Xellos smirked.
" Dra...Dragon?" Filia gasped, her expression turned from anger to confusion. "I..I...There are no such things as dragon, Namagomi!"
" Oh? What about Gold Dragon?" Xellos taunted.
" Karyuu-ou..." Filia muttered. Then her eyes widened with shock. " I...I don't now where that came from! I'm leaving, goodbye."
" Oi! Filia, come to my party tomorrow!" Garv yelled at her retreating figure.
" What do you think you're doing?!" Lina yelled as she punched Xellos.
" Itai...Just trying to help her remember." Xellos protested.
" She doesn't seem to be taking it very well..." Lina frowned, then her attention was brought to Garv who had bent down towards Gourry who was still on the floor.
"Oi...Gourry, what did you see just now?" Garv whispered.
" Hentai!" Amelia and Lina yelled.
Garv grinned. " You guys are cute, come to my part tomorrow! Remember! Bye!" He yelled a he and Phibrizo walked away.
Lina smiled faintly. " Wouldn't it be great if it could all remain like this?" Suddenly red and golden lights flickered in her mind. Her eyes widened. "That dream..." She whispered
" What dream?" Xelos asked. His tone surprisingly solemn.
" Nothing. Just a bad dream. I only remember red and golden lights and evil laughter."
" what are you guys talking about?" Amelia asked curiously.
" Ah...Amelia, have you had any dreams this few days?" Lina asked
Amelia blushed. " Can I not say?"
" About that dream, I had a similar one too." Xellos muttered.
" Nani? Does it mean something?" Lina asked worriedly.
Xellos shrugged. " I have to go. See you tomorrow at Garv's party. Ja!"
Lina frowned as he walked off. " Amelia, have you dream of red and golden lights and evil laughter before?"
" No. Lina-san, I have to get back home before nine. See you tomorrow at Garv's party. Bye!" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------ " I'm back!" Lina shouted as she walked into her house. Her sister was spread out on the sofa, with a box of chocolates beside her.
" Hey that's mine!" Lina yelled.
Luna shrugged. " Too bad, first come first serve."
" Give me that!" Lina shouted as she pounced on Luna.
Luna grinned and jumped off the couch nimbly. " Your principal came today."
"Oof..." Lina winced as she hit the sofa. " L-sama? What for?"
Luna tossed a chocolate into her mouth. " Say Lina. What happened to all your gold and treasures you took from bandits in your past life?"
" Spent it all!" Lina yelled as she tried to snatch the box of chocolates from her sister. Suddenly, she sat down abruptly as she realized what Luna had said. " What...what did you say?
Luna smiled. "What happened to all your gold and treasures you took from bandits in your past life?"
Lina's mouth dropped open. " You...You...You remember?"
" I told you, L-sama came today. Do you think she'll leave without accomplishing anything?"
Lina stared at her. " Well...So you remember everything?"
" Enough to know that I was the Knight of Cepheed" Luna drawled as she sprawled on the couch. " It all makes sense, as what L-sama told me was about the same as what my dreams tell me."
" You've had dreams of the past?"
" Duh."
" You didn't tell me!" Lina protested.
" Why should I?" Luna smirked. " And to think you made big bucks put there in the past and didn't send any money back to mum, dad and me?"
Lina laughed nervously. " I thought that you would be rich, considering the fact that you were the Knight of Cepheed..."
" If I had money why would I still go and work as a waitress!!??" She yelled as she stood up, smiling dangerously.
" Now let me show you a taste of the powers of the Knight of Cepheed."
Lina sweatdropped. " Matte! Onee-sama!!!! Mercy!!"
Luna grinned evilly as a ball of energy appeared in her hands.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
The two girls stared at it.
" You're lucky today." Luna smirked as the ball of energy disappeared. She bent forward and picked up the phone.
" Moshi moshi. Inverse residence. Looking for? Oh. Wait a minute." Luna said. " Yours." She handed the phone to Lina who was still on the ground.
Lina took the phone gratefully. " Hello? Amelia?? Matte..." She looked at Luna who shrugged and went upstairs, ringing the box of chocolates with her.
" Ne?? That's mine!" Lina whined, but shut up after Luna gave her an evil look.
" Hello? Amelia? What's wrong?" Lina asked curiously.
" Ne...Lina-san, I've been thinking about the dream."
Lina's eyes widened. " Eh? So you've dreamt of red and golden lights with evil laughter before?"
" No...In my dreams, there was a palace, and I was wearing princess clothes." Amelia said, uncertain of whether she would continue.
" Go on." Lina said excitedly. " Have you dreamt of a rocky guy with spiky violet hair?" " Nani??? How did you know?" Amelia asked in shock.
" Is his name Zelgadis?"
" How did you know?"
" Does the name Seyluune ring a bell?"
" Seyluune...The white magic capital...AHH?" Amelia seemed to be rather freaked out.
" Amelia, do you believe in reincarnation?" Lina asked, deciding take a step further.
" I..."
" Amelia, would you believe me if I told you that we were friends in our past life?"
" I've dreamt of you before, Gourry-san and Filia-san too. I dreamt that Filia-san was a dragon...These dreams seem to get more and more vivi these days."
"Ohh..Amelia!" Lina wailed.
"Lina-san. Are you alright?'
" Hai, I'm just too delighted. Amelia, do you remember anything?"
" Lina-san, was...was I a princess in my past life?"
" Hai! Hai! You lived in..."
" Seyluune!" Amelia screamed. " Lina-san, It's all coming back! The battles, the journeys, Zelgadis-san, Sylfiell-san, Martina-san, Hellmaster..." Her voice trailed off when she got to the mazokus. " Oh my god, Phibrizo-san, Garv-san, Xellos-san and Sherra-san!"
" Yeah, they're all here, even the fire dragon king and the water dragon king!" Lina said happily.
" Raksha and Lagul!" Amelia shouted into the phone.
" Amelia you're back!" Lina screamed
" Hai! Lina-chan, Amelia Will Tesla Seluune, keeper of justice and peace is BACK! With the Hammer of Justice, I will rid the world of evil and greed!" Amelia shouted on the other end of the phone. Lina laughed, She could already picture Amelia standing on her bed, striking a post.
Suddenly, she heard a loud crash and a groan.
" Amelia? Are you alright??"
" Itai...Hai, I just fell of the cupboard."
Lina sighed. " Just like the old days..."
A/N: Ah...I finally finished chapter 4. Thnx to all whom reviewed, you guys were a great encouragement. Thanx to MorotheWolfGod who helped me with Zel. Lol. Anyway, Zel will appear in the next chapter. Luckily the story seem to be getting somewhere.
