Disclaimer Notice- I do not now nor have I ever owned Escaflowne. I do however own this plot , and I
own the teachers that Hitomi is taught by. Not the aspect but the teachers themselves. I also own the
characters Laurel and Radeela. Oh any characters youv'e never heard of I probably own those too.
I do not own Chesta or Jijuka or any of the other Escaflowne charaters form the movie or the telivision
show. So now I'll quit droning on and on and get to the story. "-" =speech *-*=thought
Hitomi stood out on the lawn. She hugged her coat tight around her. She was wearing a dark green
shirt with lace on the sleeves and a lace v-neck. She had a pair of blue jeans on and she had a fleece
jacket on. Chesta had told her mother that he and Hitomi would be gone on a bonding trip , so for the
occasion Ling bought Hitomi a red fleece jacket. It was fall. The leaves were all dark in color as it was
not yet sunrise. The grass was covered in morning dew. She waited for Chesta. *Where is he? I'm not
going to wait forever out here.* * Where are you , Van? I really need to talk to you. I miss you so much and I think
somehting horrible is going to happen to you.*
"Oh Van , please be careful." the door opened , Chesta walked out in a pair of blue men's jeans a blue shirt with
thin white stripes. His black fleesce jacket was zipped up all the way like her's.
"There you are. Where have you been? I was going to leave without you , you know."
"Sorry. I had to find the right look. I thought my armour might be a little conspicuous so would the business suit for
work. I couldn't really find anything casual."
"It's ok , I'm sorry for some reason I'm aggitated this morning. Mabey it's hormones or something."
Chesta laughed. "No I don't think it's hormones. You aren't exactly extatic about helping people who at one time
nearly got you killed a couple of times and a person you care about very much."
"I guess. But that's not it. It's something else. . . "
"Else? What is it? You can trust me you know , I won't tell Jijuka. Nobody knows this but I'm actually getting fond
of you." he smiled at her.
"You are? Like in a weapon sort of way?" she asked suspicously. Chesta laughed.
"No in that good friend that I never had way." Hitomi laughed , as did Chesa.
"I feel like something's going to happen. Something important. But I don't know what."
"Like the calm before the storm."
"Like the smell of the air before the battle. You feel it , thick with tension , danger , death." "It's so thick you can
barely breathe." "Your mind whirls as you search for some sign , any sign that the opponent is near. You search
because you feel him watching you , you know he's there you just don't know where. Till it's too late." Hitomi was
thinking of all the battles she had been involved with. All the time watching and waiting. She could always feel the
strength of the battle going on. She hated it. Those battles were one thing she could live without. She did not get
into the battle with her sword but with her mind. The wars destroyed the country , the land , and she felt it's pain for
some reason,but also it's happiness when Van was a step closer to winning. Even the land knew that Van would
finally end this war and peace would rein in Gaiea for a long time after that. How she missed Gaiea. When she
came back she realized , that nothing felt like home , here. But she felt like she had left home , and it felt like her
heart had done this before, but she could think of when such a thing had been done. She shook her head. It was
useless to think of such a thing. Chesta looked at her with saddness. He knew how she felt. He too wanted to go
home. But even though he knew she was homesick he was confused. The Mystic Moon was her home, wasn't it?
As he looked at her aura he realized that mabey the Mystic Moon was not her home. Perhaps it never was her
true home. He had heard of people being spirited away , mabey she was spirited away form Gaiea. Her aura
carried a lot of Gaiea origin. Then he saw a flash , a teenage boy holding a two year old child , she was laughing
as he swung her about in a playful manner. He must have been the big brother. He held her and he was saying
somehting to her. Chesta couldn't hear it , then as if someone heard his silent pleas, he heard what was said
"Can you say Allan? Al - lan."
"Awan." he laughed so did a women who was in the other room.
"Mommy!" she giggled.
"I think that's close enough Allan , come on time for dinner then off to bed for good little children." they all laughed
, then as quick as it came it went away. *Allan , Allan. . .* Chesta was thinking of who the boy might be. He had a
strong face , long blonde hair , and a good natured personality. Realization struck him like a ton of bricks. *Allan ,
Allan Shazzaar!?*
"Chesta? Chesta? CHESTA!"
"Huh? What? Who Where Huh?"
"What is wrong with you?" "You had that wierd vision then realization look but your not trembling from the vision
so what's wrong?"
"Nothing , nothing at all."
"So shall we go after Jijuka?" Chesta asked calmly.
