Chapter 10
"Miaka, you don't have to be worried about Lana. She's a seishi now, remember? She can take care of herself." Taka told his pacing wife. "You're right. At least she won't have to fight Marisa like I had to fight Yui." Miaka said, sighing in relief. Taka chuckled, then went back to reading the book.
"Al-Allelu! I can't MARRY him! I just met him YESTERDAY!!!" Lana cried, blushing furiously. "But then you'd be my real sister!" Allelu said, pouting and then turned to her brother, eyes big and tearful. "Aww, sh*t. Here it comes." Kami thought, and cringed. "Oniisan, Lan-chan would make a wonderful wife! She's pretty, nice, brave, and cares about all of us a whole bunch! If you two got married, she wouldn't have to leave to find her family because WE'D be her family.... and that means she'd be able to be here and keep me from being lonely if you ever decide to leave again." Kami inwardly groaned, and tried to ignore his little sister's big eyes that were now filled with tears. "Allelu-chan, I'm completely SURE she doesn't want to marry me, and you wouldn't want to make her unhappy, would you?" Kami asked Allelu, desperately trying to get her to change her mind. Allelu immediately rounded on Lana, eyes getting an almost angelic look, and said, "Lan-chan? You DO want to marry Kami-chan, don't you?" Lana gave a yelp, and said, "Allelu! I JUST MET HIM! How the HECK am I supposed to KNOW if I want to or not?!" "Please Lan-chan, please, promise me you'll think about it?" Allelu pleaded, starting to cry. "I- I don't want to be lonely again." Lana looked helpless, giving the crying girl a hug, saying, "Please don't cry, Allelu- chan. You know I don't like to see you cry." "But after you go get Daddy, you won't have a reason to be here anymore, and you'll leave! Please Lan- chan, please, promise me you'll think about it!" Allelu sobbed, clinging to her shirt with tiny fists. Lana looked at the young girl for a second, before sighing, and leaning her forehead on the top of Allelu's little head, whispering, "Alright, alright, Allelu-chan. Stop crying. I promise you." Allelu looked up at Lana, wiping away the tear tracks on her cheeks, and smiled, jumping up and exclaiming, "Thank you Lan-chan! Come on Okaasan! Help me pick some flowers!" Then grabbing her mother's hand and dragging her outdoors. Lana stared after her for a second before jumping a mile high and screaming, "DID SHE JUST GET ME TO-?!" "Promise you'd consider marrying Kami? Yep." Joses said, sweatdropping. "That child is manipulative." Lana groaned, and sat down again, burying her face in her hands. "Oh man, what am I going to do? Knowing Allelu, if I tried to tell her I couldn't get married, she'd get me to promise I WOULD marry you." "Aww, now don't forget, you promised you'd consider it, Lan-chan." Kami told her teasingly. "DON'T call me that." Lana growled, then stood up with a sigh, running a hand through her hair, and said, "I'm going for a walk, see you guys later." Lana then walked out the door into the woods.
Kami chuckled after Lana left, and turned to Joses, who was looking at him murderously. "Hey," Kami smirked, "Can I help it that I have such a wonderful little sister?" "Lana'll never go through with it." Joses snorted. Kami grinned, and said, "Guess I'll just have to change her mind, huh? Nobody can resist a bandit." "I don't know, there were a lot of things I thought no one could do, but that girl's proved me wrong." Joses said, looking doubtful. "Besides, you forget." he added with a smirk. "We're BOTH bandits. What if she ends up choosing me or someone else? Golly, you'd have to break a perfect record." Kami scowled at his friend, who just laughed.
Marisa was having a wonderful time at the palace, and was walking through the gardens, watching the sunset with a few handmaidens when she saw the man, Schola, sitting next to a pond looking troubled. "Hey Schola! What cha doing?" Marisa asked cheerfully, dismissing the girls, and sitting next to the green-haired monk. Schola looked at Marisa with a start, and said with WAY to much cheerfulness, "Oh! Nothing Marisa-san! Just thinking, no da!" "'Bout what?" Marisa pressed. Schola sighed, knowing Sodom would be displeased if he reminded Marisa that she had come here for a differant purpose than being Suzaku no Miko, but he still wanted to ask her something. "Marisa-san, what's your friend like, no da?" Marisa looked confused for a second, before she gasped, and a hand flew to her mouth, and she exclaimed, "Oh SUZAKU! I COMPLETLY forgot about Lana!" "Lana, so that's her name." Schola thought, a smile pulling on the corners of his mouth. "Stop it, no da!" he ordered himself. "You have a job to do, focus on that!" "Don't worry about your friend, I found her earlier by searching for her chi, and she's safe." Schola told Marisa, trying to keep his mind on important matters. "I need to find her and get back to our world! I promised Miaka-san that I would!" Marisa cried, wringing her hands. Schola got a stern look, and told her, "You have a duty to help as Suzaku no Miko, no da. We need to find the seven celistial warriors, then I'm sure Sodom-sama would help you to get your friend and get back home." Marisa only looked more nervous, and Schola sighed, saying, "If I show her to you, will you calm down?" Marisa nodded fereverently, and said, "Hai hai!" Schola nodded, and concentrated on finding Lana's chi again.
