Sweet Perfume
Disclaimer:
Escaflowne and its characters do not belong to me. This is just a fanfic made by a fan for fans.
However, I did create the plot, so that's mine.
Author's Note:
Sorry it took so long ^_^ I've been neglecting to write my stories for a long time. I will finish this story though, it might take a long time but it will be finished eventually.

As soon as the dragon slayers heard about Dilandau's new mission, they were all trailing behind him asking questions like, "Would you like us to accompany you Dilandau-sama?" and "Are you sure you won't need any of our help?"
"No, I'll do this on my own. It's just a weak little girl... I would have sent off one of you guys to finish this job if I didn't think I would have fun doing this." He was getting slightly annoyed by the amount of questions they were asking him.
"Yes sir, Dilandau-sama."
What a surprise it would be for Millerna, Dilandau thought to himself, to see her worst nightmare standing at the door when she expected her knight in shining armour to come for her instead.
He took his time getting to the Three Moons Inn, wondering how the princess ended up being at such a shabby, rundown inn.

When Allen finally fell into a deep sleep, Millerna left in the bedroom so that Allen could sleep in privacy. She sat patiently, eagerly hoping that Fassel would come soon. She could hear some commotion downstairs where the innkeeper was. She glued her ear to the door to better hear what was going on.
"Well, where is she?!"
There were some sounds of glass shattering and wooden pieces hitting the wall.
"Sir, please don't destroy our furniture..."
"Shut up! Are the sleeping rooms upstairs?"
"Yes..."
She heard the loud footsteps coming closer and closer to her room. She took a step back from the door. It certainly didn't sound like her gentle Fassel, yet she was sure that someone was coming towards her room. After locking the door, she looked for a place to hide, she spotted an empty spot under the table. Before she could crawl under it, the door broke open, taking the flimsy lock with it.
"There you are!" The leader of the dragon slayers grinned at her with a menacing expression on his face. His red eyes were practically the same color as his bright red armor. His presence gave her the chills. She wanted to ask what he was here to do, why he was here, who sent him and how he found out her location but she couldn't ask any of those questions. She just trembled and looked at him, pleading for her life with her frightened eyes.
Her fear seemed to put him into a better mood. He walked to the table, closer to where she sat crumpled. He picked up an apple from the dish from the tabletop and took a bite, surprising Millerna. "As you can see, I'm not in a big rush," he said, suddenly changing his tone of his voice, "but at the end, you're going to come with me."
He picked up her wrist with his other hand, Millerna screamed. He scowled at her, "You are not going to come peacefully?"
"Who's out there!?" Dilandau heard Allen's voice coming from the bedroom.
"Hmm... I see you have company."
Allen staggered out from the room, clutching onto the doorpost for support. "Dilandau!"
"As expected, it's the Allen the Playboy, coming out from the bedroom..." Dilandau stared at him showing his disgust, "Was it with Millerna this night? I see that you are still nothing but a perverted freak..."
"Shut up, you bastard!" The normally calm Allen couldn't control his anger this time. He unsheathed his sword and tried to attack him with his wobbly stance.
"Allen, you're so clumsy... I can't believe they let you become a heavenly knight." He said, dodging his sword swiftly, "Are you drunk? It takes out the fun of killing you. At least it's fun to watch you fall over your own feet."
Allen tried again, his sword didn't even come close to touching his target.
"How do you want your death? Quick and painful?" He teased, waving his sword dangerously close to his neck. "You know, I owe you one for what you did to one of my slayers..."
Allen continued to struggle with the weight of the sword, trying to maintain a proper grip.
Dilandau was thoroughly enjoying this game. "Die!" Dilandau shouted with slicing his sword through the air. Allen dodged but Dilandau managed to shear off half-a-meter of Allen's hair. Allen collapsed on the ground panting.
Millerna watched horrified, "Please! Stop! I'm begging you!" He stood in front of Allen in an effort to protect the wounded knight.
Dilandau chuckled, "You think you can save his life?"
"Please..." Millerna was in tears, whimpering and sobbing, "Someone, please..." Suddenly, the pendant around her neck started to glow bright red. After a blinding flash of light, the body behind Millerna disappeared.
"What the..." Dilandau looked around and behind, trying to search for Allen who miraculously disappeared into thin air, "What sort of spell did you pull, you little witch?"
Millerna clutched her pendant tightly, which was now burning hot enough to burn her light skin.
Dilandau narrowed his eyes at her, "You might not be aware of this yet, but he's the one who killed Fassel! He was begging for death!"
"No... You're lying... Fassel's not dead..." She slowly backed away from him, realizing the dangerous position she was in. Her bare feet felt the softness of Allen's strands of hair that fell on the ground during the fight.
"I don't care if you believe me or not!" Dilandau grabbed her by the wrist and dragged her out, "You're coming with me."
