I have had a certain someone on my mind for the last week! I just hope I
don't scare them off. ; )
Chapter 12
As Krystal climbed into Drag, she heard something from behind Drag's right foot.
"Samsin? Samsin!" Samsin ran out from behind and started for Krystal, but Krystal jumped down and gave him a big hug.
"Samsin, I thought you... that you....."
-I'm OK Krystal. I was OK, thanks to Arcane. He saved us.-
"Come on Samsin, let's go home!"
They got into the battered Dragon Scye and flew home, to the Dragon Base.
As Krystal approached the docking bay, tears threatened to pour out of her eyes as she remembered when her and Irvine were sitting in the little box over looking the landing bay. 'Don't cry Krystal, don't cry.'
A big banner was across the docking area that said 'Welcome Home Krystal!' Her team was waiting for her.
"Krystal! Are you all right? Were so proud of you! Cyrus ran up to Krystal and hugged her around the middle.
"OWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW! I'm all right, just let me go!"
"Sorry." Cyrus let go, as Alex walked up.
"You missed all of our schedueled matches, but we still won! We went from the bottom, almost to the top! Just a whole bunch more wins, and were in class S!"
Krystal smiled weakly, looking for Arcane. She found him off in a corner, standing alone.
"Arcane! Erm.... thanks again for saving my life. You were awesome! Um... I owe you one."
'Why was that so hard? I don't understand. Even talking to Irvine wasn't this hard! It's not like I'm in..... I can't be in...... look at what happened to Irvine for it!"
"It was.... um.... no problem." Arcane replied, his cheeks reddening.
Cyrus looked at Alex, Alex looked at Cyrus, then they both looked at Krystal and Arcane with raised eyebrows.
"Let's all go get coffee and discuss things...." Cyrus said, with a sly wink at Alex.
"Yes! That's a great idea. Let's go get coffee!" Alex repeated, catching on.
Arcane and Krystal nodded, looked at the ground, and marched off, very stiffly. Cyrus and Alex hung back. When they were out of earshot, they both burst out.
They were totally drooling over each other, I mean, did you see how red Arcane was going?"
"I know, and Krystal's ears were completely on fire! I think that's how she blushes. Krystal is kind of weird, but she has a good way of hiding her emotions, agree?"
"Totally!"
Then they both heard something that made them jump. From all the way on the elevator below them, they heard Krystal's voice call up to them.
"It's not very nice to talk about people behind their backs! And that last comment was a rather rude one Alex!"
Alex dropped his voice really low and said, "She is totally freaky!"
"I heard that!"
They spent the rest of the time in silence.
"Did you really hear those comments?" Arcane asked suspiciously, his timid self almost forgotten.
"You all seem to forget my training. I heard the first ones, and didn't need to hear the last ones. That was just lucky."
"Oh. Could you teach me that sometime?"
Krystal looked into those eyes, then shook her head and answered. "It's all going to be part of you training. I promise."
The elevator stopped, and the door opened to reveal the kitchen. "Joey?"
"Yes ma'am?"
"I'll be in the indoor café and I would like 4 cups of coffee delivered there please."
"Certainly."
"Thank you Joey."
Arcane followed Krystal into a greenhouse-like café with little roadside tables. "Wow, you have great service."
"I know, isn't he great?"
Alex and Cyrus entered right then. They all sat at a rather large round table. Joey came in and delivered their coffee, and they all began to enjoy their afternoon.
All right. What should they all talk about? Should certain people hook up? Or not? Sorry to all Irvine lovers, but I thought that the ending was pretty cool. What a way to go, as a hero. What else should happen? Sorry for the boring chapter, the next one will be much better, depending on the reviews. Later!
