Chapter 17: Darkness Falls
The Dragoon group has now made it to Fletz. Dart was having a hard time carrying Lavitz and Anya was sticking to the back and was quite for the whole time it took them to get there from Donau after explaining some things.
Naomi looked at her then at Shana and whispered. "What's the king gonna say...?" she said, worried about Lavitz.
Shana only frowned, knowing that she didn't know. The two girls moved back a little and walked beside Anya, trying to comfort her. Albert kept on walking, as well as Meru, Rose and Haschel.
: Fletz Castle:
"I'm not sure...even though he was still being controlled, I don't know if we can trust him yet. Albert, the best we can do right now is probably tying his arms while he rest's..." Zoir explained as Dart nodded and followed a guard to a room where they were sleeping and tied him down by the wrists to the bed.
Dart and co. made their way to the dressing rooms as Liberia told them of the party. Meru was excited as well as Haschel. Shana, Anya, Setria and Naomi got dressed into dresses.
: Night:
Shaking his head, he opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling above him. Pulling slightly, he winced as he looked at his wrists, which were tied. "What...where am i? Wasn't..." he muttered, and then he felt his wrists come off the bed toward his face holding it. He looked up and saw Naomi staring at him.
"Come on sleepy head, the King forgives you! Let's go, Anya's waiting!" she giggles pulling at his arms and dragging him to a room and making him get changed.
He came out dressed in a nice armor, a long bluish green cape flowing in the back, and with dark pants and a green shirt under the armor. He blushed. "Why...am I dressed up Naomi...?"
"Cuz! You wanna make Anya happy don't you! Teehee, come on Lavitz, we're going to PARTY!" She giggled out and pulled him half way to the ball/party.
: Ball/Party:
Dart looked over and saw Lavitz and smiled. "Hey, guess you're up now huh? How ya feeling?" he asked him placing a hand on Lavitz's shoulder.
"Fine...but...there's till some things, you'll have to clue me in on...Naomi partially made me black out from all her talking..." he sighed. "Where's Anya?" he finally asked.
Dart smiled. "She's out there...she was really worried about you...but also scared...go talk o her, Alright?" Lavitz nodded, and walked out to where Dart and Shana has just finished kissing under the moon. There...was Anya, dressed in a full gown.
Lavitz stared, struck by her beauty as she stared at the water; her face glowing by the moonlight. She wore a full dress, silver laced around the shoulders and the pale moonlight colour surrounded every inch of the dress. He stared, mouth ajar.
"A-Anya..." he stuttered, practically whispering to the girl. Her attention went behind her, as she stared at the arrival of Lavitz...her Knight and Shining Armor, dressed in a formal...yet handsome suit with a cape blowing in the wind. She smiled slightly as she looked at him.
Nodding, Anya watched as Lavitz came up beside her and looked at her with uneasiness. "Lavitz..." she started and looked at the ocean away from his face as he watched her.
"You really scared me back there...you know...I-I just wanted to say...well, I wanted to ask you...if you want to take this relationship any further...I understand..." she said as she placed a hand on the railing and stared out to the glimmering sea.
Lavitz was taken aback. Anya...the first girl he ever loved...now wanted to end the relationship? He looked at the ground in utter failure, as if he disgraced his own father...that he was no good for Anya...
She looked up waiting for an answer, and then she saw the defeat in his eyes. The sadness...he had his eyes lowered and she saw that. He didn't want to end the relationship...she sighed with happiness. He still had his face lowered at the ground.
Lavitz had a million thoughts running through his head...why did Anya want to end it, and why wasn't she talking at all! 'I wish...i hadn't been possessed by him...damn...' his mind yelled out and the frustration grew on his face and mind...
"Lavitz...if you don't want to end it...then...I'm really fine with that..." she whispered and placed a hand on his cheek, warmth coming to it and he looked at her with his olive green eyes...with sudden surprise.
She stared at him, eyes glowing from the moon, and smile brighting up the darkness around them. He stared at her mesmerized and gulped.
The last bits of the sun, edged away past the water as the moon fully came out of the shadow of the mountains. The shadows of Lavitz and Anya spread across the platform as the two became close and Anya had her arms around his neck. Lavitz had one hand rested on her waist and the other cupping her cheek and caressing it with soft fingers. The two gazed at each other and as the sun rose down...the two's lips met.
Behind the pillars four figures were staring at the two as they kissed under the moons and stars. Haschel, Meru, Naomi, and...Setria. They awed as the two hugged after parting and Lavitz rubbed one hand on her back comforting her and making sure that he was there to protect her always.
But...as soon as they embraced...the light went out. "HEY! What the *&% is going on?!?" Naomi yelled as she held onto one pillars and looked around. Setria did the same as with Meru, but Haschel ran off to find Dart.
Anya clutched to Lavitz as he looked around, but found nothing but the darkness. The only light was by the water, the moonlight and the stars stared down.
"L-Lavitz...what going on?" Anya whispered as she laid her head under his and trembled. He placed a hand on her back and did mumbled anything, just held her close as he could feel the power of something strong coming near.
From behind, Naomi ran up and grasped his arm and Anya's. "Come on...Anya...it's him! We have to get you hidden!" she hissed in an uneasy matter and the two followed her without question.
Just before the three got into the darkness of the castle, a lighting bolt struck down upon them and made them fall apart, flying into different parts of the balcony. Lavitz to the front end and almost falling off and unconscious. Anya was right beside him but conscious and crawling over to him and bringing him up more, Naomi was also unconscious but Albert found her and brung her to safety...the only ones who were still in danger were Anya and Lavitz.
Then an evil laughter appears above them. Anya stared up and her eyes widened as they fell upon the evil man. He lowered own in front of them, and the lights came on again, and everyone had left except for the dragoons, Anya and the others without dragoons but with Dart. Dart ran up and pulled out his sword.
"You're the one who attacked before!" he growled under his breath. Shana, who was somewhere on the side, made it over to Anya and Lavitz. "He's knocked unconscious...don't worry..." she whispered and placed her White- Silver dragoon spirit on his chest and it glowed as it healed the gash on his forehead. He woke up right after and got up in front of the two girls and taking out his spear readied for battle once again.
"Heh...foolish mortal...you have no way of knowing what kind of power my kind has! You're only in the way of her short life ending. Heh, now...MOVE!" he yelled taking a step toward Lavitz, Shana, and most like of them all Anya.
"I will not move...i will protect her with my life...got it!" he glared at the man and raised his spear protectively. The man kept walking forward and held out a hand. Seeing this, Dart sprang forward and slashed at the robed demon. The man hissed and with a mighty push, threw Dart back into a pillar knocking him unconscious. Shana and the others gasped, and also attacked.
They all soon got knocked out...all that were left were Naomi, Setria, Lavitz, Meru, Lavitz, and Anya. The man grinned and moved toward Anya as she backed up and clinged to Lavitz shirt. "D-Don't let him take me...Please..." she begged and whispered putting her wet face into his cape.
"Don't worry...I'll protect you no matter what..." with that he grabbed his spear and attacked, along with Meru Setria and Naomi. They all tried their best, but one by one the Ancient knocked them out...now Lavitz stood with Naomi alone.
Naomi was having a hard time as she limped walking up beside Anya andmoving in front like a protective sister. "We won't let you...you demon!" she cried holding back tears of pain.
He laughed the hateful laughter. "You really think you fools can beat me! HAHAHAHAHA! Alright then! Take this!" he ran forward and grabbed holds of Naomi making her hang from her head. She struggled and kicked and scratched at his hand as he held her roughly.
"NAOMI!!!" Anya and Lavitz yelled out at the same time. Lavitz ran forward and slashed at his robe, making him hiss as black blood poured onto the ground. He dropped the girl, but whirled around on Lavitz and held him from the neck, choking him.
Anya didn't know what to do...the new ones she loved were hurt and unconscious...and the one man she wanted to be with forever was dying before her very eyes by the man she most utterly hated.
"RAOUL! STOP IT!" she cried and ran forward putting a hand to unwrap the clutch on Lavitz's throat. "You can take me! Please...just...stop hurting them!" she cried. Lavitz's eyes snapped open and he stared at her with gaping features as he was thrown onto the ground with harsh roughness.
"An-Anya...what the heck are y-you doing..." Lavitz asked, as he stood up gasping slowly. Anya lowered her head as tear ran down her face as she stared at him and was slowly picked up by the man named Raoul. She whispered as she was carried upward.
"I-I'm sorry..."
Raoul grinned menacingly and stared down at Fletz, but then at Lavitz who was staring up with shock. He put his hand down and murmured some ancient words that Anya recognized as screamed out and a black energy erupted form his hand...aimed at the Knight below.
It covered him in the darkness and his yells could have been heard Anya tried best to cover her ears but...it didn't help at all...Raoul, had almost killed Lavitz...but kept him alive due to the fact he was a very honorable opponent.
Down on the ground, lay Lavitz's form, all bloody and bruised. Beside him, Naomi who was staring up with teary eyes and painful wounds on her body. The others mostly the same but not as badly as them. Anya cried as she and Raoul disappeared into the darkness, and the light from the moon was covered by black clouds...and it began to rain...like the whole entire world was mourning for the fall of the Angel.
Lavitz breath was harsh as he stared up at the sky, rain falling down on him and Naomi. The blood fell down into the stone and he whispered, "A- Anya...n-no..." just before he blacked out into unconsciousness.
SO? What did you eyes think of that little flick huh? Yah, all mushy until something bad happens! MWUHAHA! OKAY! Now...I'm gonna continue on with this, and if anyone...and I mean anyone who reads Desperate Magic and has some good ideas...please tell me...And again. I'd like to thank Angel of Fantasy for giving me these ideas...and then some later! THANK YA ALL! WHEE! Please review!
