Chapter 4
"Selena! Where're the camping supplies?!" Marisa yelled, running into her house, calling to her older sister, and dragging a large backpack out of her closet. "Why?" her sister asked boredly from her room, watching TV. "Lana and I are going camping!" Marisa yelled the first thing that came to her mind. THIS got a reaction. "In the middle of the week?! Do Mom and Dad know?!" Selena replied, twisting around and looking at her sister oddly. "Just tell me, okay?!" Marisa yelled back at her, paniced, knowing time was faster in the world Lana was in now, and every minute counted. Selena looked at her suspiciously, and asked, "You're not planning on running away, are you? Was it because you got sent to the principal's office again?" This distracted Marisa for a second. "How'd you KNOW about that?!" she cried, taken off guard. Selena smirked, and said, "One of my friend's saw you and Lana going in. Both of you planning to avoid punishment the old fashioned way? Can't say I blame ya, if Mom finds out, she'll hit the roof." Marisa blushed heavilly, and went chibi yelling, "You CANNOT tell her! I just got OFF being grounded from going outside the house!" Selena smirked, and replied that she needed to say 'pretty please', and they continued to fight.
"Here are Kami-chan's travel clothes, they should fit you." Serena said, handing Lana an armload of clothing. Lana grinned at her, and went in her room to quickly change. It had been two months since Lana had made her promise. She had insisted on helping them store food and cut fire wood for the winter before she left, and also making several small repairs on the house. She was quite used to wearing Kami's clothes by now, seeing as how she wouldn't be able to climb on the roof to fix leaks in a dress. She was dressed in black, drawstring pants, a tan tunic with a black over shirt, boots, a tan cloak and had her hair pulled back by a black bandana. When she came out, Allelu had woken up, and didn't recognize her. "Okaasan? Who's this? Are you Lan-chan's husband?" she asked, confused. Lana laughed, and told Allelu that she was going somewhere, and needed to look like a man to be safe. Over the last two weeks, the three girls in the house had become very close. It had broken Lana's heart to see how lonely Allelu was, and how relieved Serena was to have help around the house, with repairs and such. She was determined to bring this son of Serena's back. Allelu, Serena and Lana had almost become a family, and Lana wanted them to be happy. "No! Don't go!" Allelu cried, hugging her leg tightly and crying when Lana said she was leaving. "Oneesan and Oniisan BOTH left me! Please don't go! I promise I'll be good!" Allelu sobbed, and refused to let Lana go. "Allelu-chan, I'm just going on a short trip. I'll be back!" Lana told her, kneeling down on one knee, and cupping her chin in her hands. Allelu looked up, and sniffed, asking, "Why? Where are you going?" Lana smiled at her, and said, "I'm going to go see your brother and BRING HIM BACK." Allelu's face lit up, and she said excitedly, "Really!? Can you see if you can get Daddy to come back too?" she asked, eyes pleading. Lana looked up at Serena, thinking, and then looked back at the girl, and said, "Yes. Can you get me a map to show me how to get to the capitol and Mt. Leikkaka?" "Hai!" Allelu said excitedly, and ran off. Lana looked at Serena, and grinned. "Think you can keep her occupied until I get back?"
Serena nodded with tears in her eyes again, and suddenly said, "Wait a second please, I'll be right back." Lana looked confused, and Serena came back with a long, thin bundle. She handed it to Lana, and said, "Take it with you in case you run into trouble. It was my father's." Lana unwrapped it, and saw a finely crafted sword and dagger. "Arigato Serena-chan. This will be very helpful." Lana looked up at her with a smile, and gave her a hug before sliding the dagger into her boot, and the sword in a holder on her back under her cloak. "Also, take this." Serena said with some hesitation, bringing out a cloth wrapped bundle, no bigger than a child's fist. "What's this?" Lana asked, and gasped when she unwraped it and saw a beautiful amulet on a chain, with what looked like a phoniex on it. "This was my mother's. It will bring you good luck and protect you." Serena said, smiling, and giving Lana a hug. "Arigato." Lana whispered, and put it on, sliding it under her shirt. "I got the map, Lan-chan!" Allelu cried, running in the room and waving around a piece of parchament. "Good girl! Now which roads are the ones I want to travel?" Lana asked, spreading the map out on a stool. "Well, this road leads to the mountain, and this one leads to the capitol. The mountain is closer, so you'll want to take this route." Allelu said, marking her path with a piece of charcoal from the fire. "Thanks Allelu-chan, Serena-chan. I'd better get going." Lana said after Serena and her had packed a pack with things she'd need, and had given her a spare horse they had. "Come back to us safely, Lana." Serena said, looking at her as a mother would a daughter. "Come back soon, Lan- chan!" Allelu yelled, waving both her arms as Lana rode off down the road, waving back as she began her journey.
"Why would Lana get taken into the book? I thought all the wars had ended!" Miaka-san sighed, rubbing her temples, getting impatiant for Marisa to return, even though she had just left. "There's always the possibility that someone is trying to resummon Seryuii, or attack Konan." Taka-san sighed, looking worried. Miaka-san put her face in her hands, and whimpered, "I don't want Lana and her friends to get caught up in all of this! She's only fourteen, and Marisa's YOUNGER!" Taka-san put a hand on her shoulder, and said, "Lana and Marisa are both strong, they'll make it. If Marisa'd only get back! We're wasting precious time. Lana just left to go to Mt. Leikaka, who knows what's going to happen?"
Marisa had finally given up on her sister, and started going through the house top to bottom, grabbing various things and throwing them into her backpack, looking around frantically for the tents and sleeping bags. She was just about to walk out the door and say, 'The heck with the tent', when Selena said causually, "If you want them THAT bad, I'll tell you were they are." "WHERE ARE THEY!?" Marisa practically screamed, looking around frantically. Selena just pointed to the closet behind Marisa in the hallway, who's door was open, revealing several half-hazardly stacked sleeping bags and tents. Marisa face-faulted and fell over anime style.
Here's a little dictionary for ya, and I'll be checking to see if the other chapts are correct. Read and Review! Ja ne!
