Meant for Each Other
Hihi…tries to give a nice smile and fails…again with the sugar and the hyperness…all day long…everyone runs away…well…since today I have a little more time I am not using those normal modern abbreviations (if you've noticed) that teenagers tend to use…even though I am a YOUNG teenager…grimaces…still, it is a VERY honourable thing to be said by one of my readers and reviewers hint hint wink wink that I write perfectly fine for a young fanfiction writer…I just want to thank you for all the reviews…I appreciate you taking the time to write them out…but I currently have one question:
Since Homestead is starting to 'suggest' users to use the one where you need to pay on the personal homepages…and since I can't possibly pay for it…I was wondering if there is a better homepage providers than Homestead, made especially for people who have no knowledge of HTML or stuff about computers (describing yours truly) and also have an easy-to-use wizard sitebuilder…I am not really good with computer stuff if you've noticed…if you know one, please review me or just email me…I would appreciate it…thank you!!
Disclaimer: Thank you ladies and gentlemen spotlight comes on…I would like to announce that the Vision of Escaflowne does NOT, I repeat, DOES NOT belong to the author, although she would very much like to own it and receive big bucks, as the modern people say…screen shows author crying…ocean of tears starting to form…only the plot and the made-up characters are hers to torture…she does not own the characters but the plot is hers…sees a smiling author carried away by the waves of tears…
Anywise, let's not waste anymore time even though over the summer break the author has nothing to do…it is getting late and the YOUNG author has a bedtime schedule…just kidding…anywise…enjoy!!

Chapter 3
The Meeting of the Lovers
"And what might be your name, laddie?" the soldier at the gate asked.
"Ummm…it's um…" Hitomi struggled for a boyish name. One that would seem manly enough to hide her womanly habits. After all, when I'm discovered, I will surely be sent back to my homeland, my past, my current unhappiness, she thought. Think, Hitomi, think, she thought with her brows tightened, aha! I know, Adrian!
"My name is Adrian," she replied quickly, trying to avoid trouble.
"What of your last name?" The soldier with the broad shoulders questioned.
Oh great! A last name…hmmm…how about Kansaki…she pondered.
"Ummm…sir…it's Kansaki, Adrian Kansaki." She twitched a bit under the frightening soldier's glare, seeming to penetrate through her disguise.
"Well, Kansaki…what is your business of wasting my time?"
"Sire…I…"
"A man never stutters…now speak like a true man!"
"SIR YES SIR! I want to join the organization of Fanelia to produce top soldiers, also known as 'boot camp'!"
"And what will you do once you overcome this course? Go challenge every man and beast on the face of Gaea and have either you or your opponent gain unnecessary blood shed? Me, release a bunch of crazy bloodthirsty monsters? What do you take me for? A man with utterly no responsibilities? Well, no siree, I've got my duties and my family at stake, so hand over the dough."
"What 'dough'?"
"Egad, what a stupid boy! You know, everyone who enrolls here must have a recommendation or anything worth of proof to be able to join. Why, you don't have it?" the soldier sneered sarcastically.
Just then a hand rested upon Hitomi's shoulder.
"Hey, don't be so harsh on the newcomer. He's with me," a guy with raven black hair said, whose hand still held Hitomi's shoulder.
"And who are you?" the soldier retorted.
"Just call me Van…I'm from Fanelia," the handsome man with a dark tan answered.
"And where's you 'dough'?" the soldier asked, oblivious to the obvious truth said by this guy, so called Van. After all, this guy is called Van and is from Fanelia when the king of Fanelia is also named Van.
"Right here," 'Van' said. And with that, he unrolled a scroll with some scribbly writing indicating that the king of Fanelia gave permission for 'Van' to join in the organization.
"Omigod! It's our lord's personal writing! Mind if I keep this? Ermmm…you may go in," the soldier squealed like any average schoolgirl.
"Sure…I'm, as you might say, a close friend of his royal majesty," Van answered with a smirk.
So they left the gate, Hitomi following Van, leaving a pig-headed Fanelian soldier who was unable to put pieces together.
"Attention!"
"As your sergeant, I will only be called by 'sir'. When you little weaklings say something, say it loud and clear. I will train you slugs into something worthwhile, even if it kills." At this point several men gulped. "Anyways, now no rules until I say them, clear? I will now pair you up into pairs to share one room. No sissies allowed for this, understand?'
Hitomi tensed up with worry as she crossed her fingers.
"And Kansaki…let me see…since you came with Van of Fanelia, you'll be his roommate," the sergeant boomed.
"At least luck's been good to me," Hitomi muttered under her breath sarcastically.
However, Van heard this.
"Hey…don't call it luck, call it destiny; and now that you are my lifetime roommate in this place, I won't have my so-called 'advisors' bugging me to marry. I will be bugging you," Van joked.
"Are you impersonating the king of Fanelia?"
"Maybe…" Van said in a sly voice.
