Chapter 6

"Dilandau what are you doing?" Hitomi asked, she hadn't really moved since
they came to Gaea, she was still up against the tree. All she could really
think about was that she was back.

"What does it look like Hitomi? I'm collecting sticks to start a fire, duh!
God sometimes your so dense," He murmured the last part to himself. If looks
could kill, he'd be dead.

"Gaea," Hitomi smiled to herself, she couldn't believe she was back. She had
to find Van, but how, Dilandau co- she stopped, Dilandau. "Oh my God,"
Dilandau stopped and looked up at her oddly. It was only then that it hit
her, she was to be wed to Dilandau, but she was here on Gaea, that's where
Van was, Gaea. And even besides all that it was Dilandau! Last time he was
here he tired to kill everyone! Would he try it again?

"Well....?" Hitomi came out of her trance and looked at the impatient
Dilandau who had frozen in place watching her.

"What?"

"Well??? what was that all about?" He asked her standing up.

"Oh um.. Nothing, nothing," She asked turning slightly red.

"Yeah sure........well anyway help out! It's dark here already and we need a
fire!" Hitomi nodded and helped him pick up sticks.

********************
*Earlier on*

Van, Allen and Paro, sat at a table with a candle lit to keep the light.
With Celena and Merle at their sides. Paro had told them about himself,
apparently he was the son of a man who spent his life studding the odd, or
unnatural. He had studied along side him and knew quite a lot, including
information on the prophecy. Paro clammed that he never ever really lived in
one spot, but he said they could say he was from Fried. Paro also told them
that he had studied the art of magic. But nothing more really. And no one
asked.

"So, what do you no one the prophecy?" Van asked leaning forward.

"First I have to tell you that this may take while, second I have no place
to stay-" Van cut in.

"You may stay here, we have plenty of room, just carry on. Please." Paro
nodded. He was about to start when this feeling came over him, a familiar
feeling. He shut his eyes and concentrated to try to figure out what it was,
but he couldn't figure it out. e had felt it before, he knew it, but where?

"Paro?" It was Allen who first notice that they're visitor wasn't fully
'with them'.

"Sh!" Paro shushed them. He needed to concentrate. Finally it hit him, hard
too, the feeling just got really strong all of a sudden when he realized
what it was. He had felt it at the air port back on earth. "Her," Van got
curious now.

"What? What do you mean 'her', who?" Everyone was wondering what was going
on. Paro all of a sudden jumped up from his chair. How could he have been so
stupid! It was her! She was the one! And he knew it all along! "Paro!! What
in Gaea is going on!?" Van yelled. He had to know, then he felt it.

"Van?" Allen noticed that he was smiling, and he had frozen.

"Hitomi! Allen she's here!" Van jumped he started to run out the door, but
he stopped when Paro grabbed he's sleeve. "What do you think your doing!?"
Van yelled at him, he had to find Hitomi.

"Think, Hitomi," That name, he would never forget, those eyes, "She is the
one, you know that right?" Van looked confused first then remember the part
in the prophecy, he nodded.

"Yes, me and Allen thought so," Paro nodded to him.

"Well then, think, Hitomi is back, she is the powerful one, so she is also
not alone, isn't that correct?" He asked him, Van's eyes saddened for a
moment but he listened. "Well who knows who she could be with," Paro wasn't
sure who was with her, but he had an idea, she had told him there was
somebody else. Maybe it was him. "Anyway's we have to think this threw, but
we do have to find her,"

"How is it?" Paro looked confused at Van statement. "How is it? you act as
if you know her," Paro froze, he hadn't thought about this, at all! She would
know him! Then they would know he- never mind, he would let them know. If
they found out then they found out. But for some reason he just wanted to
find her, see her again.

"You'll see, anyway's lets go, we need to find her." With that Van ran out
with Paro behind him, Merle chasing after them and Celena running behind all
of them laughing her head off. If they hadn't been in such a deep
conversation they would of heard her cheers for joy, and would have felt the
floor shaking under their feet from her jumping. She was so happy Hitomi was
here. But Allen stayed behind, something wasn't right about this Paro, and
besides that Hitomi was back. Would she be the same? Would he still- he's
mind went blank, would he still love her? Allen shook his head a ran out
after everyone, he would just have to wait.

But none of them were expecting the surprise of who would be with her.

********************

Hitomi and Dilandau sat in front of the fire, it had gotten darker then
before and the only light was the on from the fire and the moons.

"Ah, Dilandau?" Dilandau put his attention towards her. "What are we going
to do?" She asked him, he sighed.

"Well, I know a few things, but that's all going to change with you," He
said poking the fire.

"What? What do you mean?"

"Well, do you think we should go back to earth? I know that I am, I think at
lest. But what about you? Are you going back?" Hitomi hadn't expected this
question, no, that was a lie and she knew it. She had asked her self the same
question a thousand times before, even on earth. If she ever did get the
chance to go back, would she stay? Or leave again. She had always said she'd
stay, but, now that she was in the position, she wasn't sure. And this
question was even harder with Dilandau here.

"I...I don't know." She said, her voice had almost not worked for her.

"Well, unless I can't find anything here good, I'm going back. Anyway's I
have a 'family' so called there now," He finally laid the stick down. But he
froze.

"Something is coming," She whispered. He nodded, he went to reach for his
sword, but found nothing.

"Shit, left it back on earth, stay quite." With that he picked up a branch.

"You guys! Over here! There's a fire!" A voice called out. 'Wait a minute,
that voice sounds familiar!' She thought harder, then it came to her, 'Van!'
but not fast enough did she get it out of her mouth.

"Dilandau st-!" But she didn't say it fast enough, Dilandau had whammed Van
over the head with the branch, not very hard though because of Hitomi
distracting him. Thank goodness.

"Van!!" Merle cried as she jumped over to the limp body on the ground. The
others also came running over. Including Hitomi. Dilandau just stood there,
grinning like a little boy. He figured it was Van, but like he was going to
tell Hitomi that. He always did get entertainment out of hurting Van.

"Van you ok?" Allen asked, no reply. Then he realized it. There was a 5th
person with them, Merle, Celena, Paro, Himself, and who was that? And behind
them was the person who had hit Van. instinctively he grabbed his sword and
the extra person by them, and pushed them up against a tree with the sword
at their neck. "Who are you?" He said in a low voice. It was dark out and he
could see them.

"Allen?" The person asked, female be the voice he could tell. But how did
they know his-

"Hitomi?!" Allen exclaimed, the body nodded it's head. "Oh my God, Hitomi
please forgive me! I didn't know it was you!"

"That's fine, no harm done, to me at lest. Allen it's so wonderful to see
you again, but we'll do the introducing later, we have to help Van." He
nodded and they ran over to help Van. He was Ok, a bump on he's head but Ok.
They loaded up onto the horses, they had asked who Dilandau was, but he said
they would see in the light later. Hitomi had noticed an extra person, but
couldn't see who it was so decided to wait tell later.

Celena and Merle got on a horse together, and Paro got on he's with Vans
body. Dilandau had a horse to himself, and Hitomi got on with Allen. They
all rode back to the castle. When they got there the decided that the would
introduce everyone the next day, with that Hitomi, Dilandau, and Paro were
given rooms, and everyone went to bed.

********************

I got to think. That's what I'm doing, no, really think. Am I going to stay
here, no I belong on earth, belong.......

Where do I belong? not here, earth maybe? Maybe.

Yes I think it's earth, earth is where my family and home-

home.

*Flashback*

Dilandau was at the table, he was the younger Dilandau probably 17. He's so
called 'new parents' were blabbing on and on. So he recalled. Then his mother
said something he would never forget.

"Dilandau you keep saying that this isn't your home, well maybe it isn't.
When I was a little girl my mother used to always tell me 'Home is where the
heart'. So I guess, that means this will not be your home until you love us,
do you get it? You will never be able to accept the fact that this is your
home until you want it to be because you love us."

*End of Flashback*

"So, earth is home....." Dilandau sighed, but what would happen here? What
about Hitomi?

Hitomi, they were to be wed and- a grin came across Dilandau's face.

"Wait until Van finds out that he's love is to be wed to he's worst enemy,
ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!" Dilandau laughed his head off as the picture of Van's
face floated threw his head.

********************

Hitomi smiled and turned onto her side, the heavy quilt once again taking on
her new shape. She sighed with a smile then turned to her other side. She
just could seem to sleep, the idea of Van and her being on the same planet,
of being in the same country, of being in the same town, they were even in
the same castle!!

"Van," She sighed, maybe she should go check on him, just a peek. With that
he slowly got out of bed, her long silk night gown flowing along side her.
Hitomi walked down the hallway, she took a turn, they another and another.
When she looked around she realized she was lost.

"Great," She sighed, just what she need. "Why do I have this feeling I'm
gonna end up sleeping in the hallway?" She laughed. She walked farther down
the hallway, took another turn. 'Shouldn't the kings door stand out?' She
thought, she didn't even no what she was looking for goodness sakes! How
was she suppose to know where to go! All of a sudden her pendent came into
view, "what the-?" It started to swing to the right. Then it was gone. 'Is
that where Van is?' She asked herself, 'No, I think, I think some ones there,'
Hitomi froze, she didn't know if this person was friend or foe.

"Hello?" A male voice called out. Hitomi had been right, there was some one.

"Yes?" Hitomi answered. The figure took a step closer. It was too dark to
see anything though, so she took a step back. But he's voice did sound
familiar.

"Hitomi?" The voice asked.

"Yes?" She did no that voice, who was it? 'Think, think Hitomi!'

"Do you remember me?" He took a step forward, still not enough light though.

"I know your voice but, but I can't put a face to it," The figure smiled,
she saw that much. She tried to see him but it wasn't working, there were no
lights in the castle, only a torch here and there.

"Strange you don't remember me, well not really I guess," With that he
stepped into the only bit of light. Hitomi's eyes widen as the face before
her came into play, how could she forget that face. That face in which she
once tried to hide from at times, that face in which she felt sorry for later
. No, she would never forget it, not after what happened.

"What?" She shook her head, "Are you ok?" She didn't expect to ask that, or
even say that first but she just had to know I guess. He hadn't expected that
question either, at all actually. He had expected a very surprised Hitomi,
but he smiled, that was Hitomi after all.
