Sorry for the Cliffy, but I kinda had no choice. And now, the story
continues!
Chapter 15
"Scared you? I'm really sorry then. I didn't mean to, it's just the way I grew up." Krystal replied.
"Speaking of growing up. what about your childhood?" Arcane asked inquisitively.
Krystal took a deep sigh as the food arrived. "Eat while I tell the story. When I was only twelve years old, my parents were killed, brutally murdered after telling me that I had been adopted. I was angry and rode of in my new birthday present, an old, battered Lightning Saix. Upon my return I had found my parents dead. The culprits were still around and they chased me down, I had had no time to get to my Lightning Saix, so I ran. They caught me in a dark ally, and had pulled a gun on me. Just as they had fired, Samsin came in and rescued me, but it was too late, the bullet had come, missing my heart, but just barley. Samsin rushed me to a hospital, and I had defied all medical reason. For about a year after that I had wandered around, scrounging for food, working temp jobs here and there. Then I met this old man. He said I had what it took, that I was the one he had been looking for. He took me from the gas station to his house, and there I lived for seven years. He trained me, he taught me how to fight with my sword, my mind, and my body. After he had sharpened those wits, then he taught me how to use a Zoid. Lighter and me were finally ready. We had our first battle and lost. Lighter was totaled, and the old man was killed. Evil jerks, I swore revenge on them right then and there, and I still look for them down dark ally ways and corners. But hey, what about your childhood?"
"I'd prefer to keep that disclosed." Arcane replied, and his face reached up a gently touched the scar beneath his right eye.
Krystal had finished eating, and so had Arcane. He suddenly stood up, offered his arm to Krystal, and asked, "May I have this dance?"
Krystal reached up and took hold of his arm. "Yes, you may."
They strolled down the stairs, and met the dance floor. The orchestra started up in a very slow, romantic song, and couples were beginning to sprout all over the floor.
Taking her hand in his, and putting his other one on her waist, Arcane steered Krystal onto the dance floor. Krystal wrapped her other arm around his shoulders, and quickly messed his hair up a little bit.
"Thanks." Arcane whispered in Krystal's ear.
"Your welcome." She replied.
They spent the rest of the night dancing, talking of battles, Zoids, and other small talk. At eleven o'clock, Arcane took her outside to where the limo was waiting.
"Ladies first." Arcane stated, as he opened the door for Krystal.
"Thank you very much. I had a great time." Krystal said, smiling warmly when they were both in the limo and were heading home.
"Your welcome, I enjoyed it too. Erm. Krystal?"
"Yes, Arcane?"
"Could we, I mean, that's if you wanted to of course, but could we. could we do this again sometime?"
"Of course, Arcane. Maybe next time you won't be so apprehensive that I'm going to pull a gun out, hmm?"
"Thanks." Arcane replied.
When they had reached the base, Arcane walked Krystal to her floor. Outside of her door, Arcane took Krystal's hands in his and gripped them.
"Could I-"
"Just shut up and kiss me, Arcane."
They kissed, rather deeply, and embraced each other, letting each other's warmth comfort the other. They parted, both looking rather flushed.
"See you tomorrow, Arcane."
"You too, Krystal."
And with that, they departed, each to different floors of the Dragon Base.
