"Hitomi what your mother is trying to say is. . . we. . . got a divorce."
"What?" her heart lurched at those words. Was it her fault , was it because she was gone for so long
oh why did she have to be gone so long.
"But I'm back now , I won't leave I'm here to stay!"
"Honey it's not because of you. We discovered that we didn't agree on a few things , actually a lot of
things,and we dicovered it would be better if we didn't live together and then well, things were said
and a few of them were ment.So we have learned that we really live better together if wer'e not around
each other so we got a divorce." her mother leaned forward. She felt horrible telling her daughter this
especially since she just got home. As much as it hurt her to say it , even now , it hurt Hitomi ten times
more.
"Sweety-" she was interrupted by Hitomi running upstairs , crying that was all she wanted to do and
all she did for the rest of the day. So let's see the meeting was at 4:00 pm. She fell asleep about 9:00
se cried herself to sleep for five hours. But she wasn't just crying for the divorce. She was crying for
that , but also for Van and her friends how she would never see them again and how they were true
friends. How she would never see Merle , Prince Chide , Allan the others. How Van's brother hadn't in
fact died but vanished. So there was no way of Zaibach truly ending and she cried just to cry.She had
so much saddness inside her , she had seen so much pain , but also a lot more happiness. And in a
way she had some tears of happiness. Her emotions were so cofused that all she could do about that
is cry.
It was morning when she woke up. There was a plate with a bisciut , two sausage pieces and eggs on
her stand by the bed. They weren't very cold actually had she woken up later they would be cold. She
tried to wipe the dry tears away but as ususal they wouldn't. She got up and went to her dresser. She
felt it right away when she touched the handle. Something was wrong. She turned around , at the foot
of the bed was a black tank top with straps the width of a dime. It was on top of a pair of black jeans.
*Black?* that was wierd. She put them on but couldn't help think that there was something very very
wrong. This feeling was familiar , but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. When she picked up her
bag it hit her. The feeling , why it was familiar. *ZAIBACH!* The feeling CHESTA! she thought. The only
one of Zaibach who had some psychic power. But hers rivaled his , and would be powerful enough to
defeat him , with training and practice. She opened her bag and pulled out a dagger. Gaddiss had put
it in her bag at Allan's request , he thought she might need it. Boy , she would have to remember to tell
him thanks, if she ever saw him again. She walked out side holding the dagger. She carefully checked
each room , upatairs making sure Chesta was not inside. Thankfully he wasn't. She went inside her
bathroom and washed her face in ice cold water. Mabey she was just imagining things. She got that
feeling again. But it wasn't up here , it was downstairs , but then it was in her room then her mother's ,
then her brother's. She was about to research each room and explode in the process of doing such
when she remembered what she had taught Van. With the Guymelefs she just pictured what she
wanted to find , and there it came. She went to the edge of the hallway.She stood there and focused in
on one thought , Chesta. The way he looked with his blonde hair , in his blue armour. Hitomi pictured
everything she could remember about him in her mind. The pendant swung and it was in front of her
downstairs. *Well that was easier than I thought.**Mabey if I had done that in the first place I wouldn't
have been running all over here like some kind of maniac.* Then it occured to her , she wasn't really
sure she wanted to find Chesta. But she had to. She went downstairs and into the kitchen there she
did it again she used her pendant. This time when she focused it didn't take as long for the results. As
a matter of fact it took even shorter than it did with spotting the invisible guymelefs. The pendant was
pointing right in front of her. *The living room* She opened her eyes as quickly as she closed them.
"CHESTA!" she yelled in surprse , she was positive he wasn't there before.
"Well , I'm glad you decided to come find me. When you actually started looking you made record time
nobody's found me that fast."
"Well considering you weren't even hiding it wouldn't really be considered a challenge now would it
Chesta?" she said coldly. She didn't like Chesta , not like you can blame her. He does work for a guy
who has nearly killed Van and her several times. Plus Zaibach wasn't currently on her high list at the
moment.
"Ah,but I was hiding didn't you sense all those auras of me after you woke up with the ice cold water."
"You were watching me?" she asked in horror.
"I could see you , I do have psychic powers too you know." "That's why you sensed me , that's how I
found you here. I could sense your power from 20 miles away." "You have developed it very well my
dear." "Even I must admit I did not expect such results."
"What do you mean results?"
"Hitomi , your power has grown to unbelievable bounds. You need very little training in your normal
uses of your power."
"What do you mean normal?"
"How you find me , your visions that's normal. Now when Plaktu tried to take your pendant , that was
your capable power which the pendant prevents you from using till you have developed the ability to
handle and control it. And in certain situations you won't be able to control it anyway , because you
and your power disagree with what must be done to protect you."
"What do you mean protect?"
"Well sit down and I'll explain it." he waved at the kitchen table. She and Chesta sat and he explained.
"You see when Plaktu-"
"Sengie." Hitomi interrupted.
"Sengie?" Chesta asked.
"Vulcan used a Dopple Ganger known as Sengie , to steal the esscence of Plaktu so he could attempt
to try and get his hands on Van."
"How did you know what he was?"
"When he tried to grab my pendant we went to a world of darkness and there I learned what he was ,
who he was , and why he was there."
"Your power is stronger than a Dopple Ganger?"
"It tried to kill Sengie but he tried and nearly succeded in killing me."
"Of course , why didn't I think of that before?'' "Your pendant is a regulator."
"What?"
"When Plaktu tried to take your pendant , you would have been in great danger you and Van if he had
brought that pendant to Lord Vulcan , and Delandel." "Plus the fact that the pendant was being taken
off not willngly but was forced your power saw fit to unleash itself." But the power was too strong for
you to hold as long as you did that's why Sengie wasn't killed.''
"Your power is very strong , Hitomi. But you have not yet grown in skill enough to use it to it's full and
complete potential. That's why I'm here. I'm here to help you master your gifts use your power."
"Use it for Zaibach you mean."
"Hitomi , if there was another way. Vulcan and Delandel desire that as well as Emperor Donkirk." " I
can't disobey an order just because I don't like it."
"Do you?"
"Do I what?"
"Do you not like it?"
"Well to be honest I'm not sure , I mean let's face it I do enjoy seeing another world , but this deception
seems a little ridiculous and not needed. We should be able to just bring you back and train you but it
isn't my place to argue."
"Why are you with Zaibach?"
"Huh?"
"The way you act , you seem more gentle than Delandel , or anyone else that is how is it that you can
be so gentle and be with people who love nothing more than to destroy?"
"You get used to it. I too destroy , but that doesn't necessarily mean I enjoy it. At least not all the time."
"What?" her heart lurched at those words. Was it her fault , was it because she was gone for so long
oh why did she have to be gone so long.
"But I'm back now , I won't leave I'm here to stay!"
"Honey it's not because of you. We discovered that we didn't agree on a few things , actually a lot of
