PurplePixie: ^_^ Heyo! Me back! And lookie what me got! *waves chapter 4
around* YAY!!
BlueJellyFish: *sweatdrop* Uh...what happened to you?
PurpleP: What ever are you talking about? AHAHA! There's nothing wrong with me! AHAHAHAHA!!! *laughs hysterically and starts dancing around*
BlueJ: *sweatdrop grows* Scary...*spots an empty bag of Halloween candy* O.O OoOoOh, so THAT'S why her brain is absolutely fried. -_- *sigh* Another case of sugar overload. O_O Hey! Wait a minute! That candy was supposed to be for the trick-or-treaters coming this Halloween!
PurpleP: LA-LA-LA!! *doesn't hear Rina*
BlueJ: -_-; I knew we shouldn't have bought Halloween candy a MONTH before Halloween...this always happens. *sigh* Welp, there's only ONE way to cure a serious case of sugar overload, and that is...*dun, dUn, DUN!* BOREDOM!! So, I'll just start this fanfic, 'cause Kyomi can't do it at the moment. Maybe this chapter is boring enough to kill her (Ky-chan: MY STORIES ARE NOT BORING!!). We'll see. Oh, and we don't own Slayers. Some rich, cool anime artistes did. Okay! The fanfic must go on!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Filia woke up to the sound of chirping birds and sunshine. She got out of bed, stretched, yawned, combed her hair, changed her clothes, and was about to go downstairs when something caught her eye. It was the letter on the nightstand. But instead of the yellow letter she had put there the previous night, there was a purple letter. Filia blinked a couple times before walking over.
"Xellos?" Filia picked up the letter and opened it. "How could he have gotten it when I haven't even sent it? Huh, oh well." Pulling out the letter, she began to read.
Dear Fi-chan,
Hi, FI-FI!! Heh, nice face you drew on your letter. It looks just like you ^_^! Are things really that perfect over there in your town? Wow. I can't wait to come back and destroy the peacefulness! Oh, and to answer the question of what my mission is...that's a secret! ^_^ And if I tell you, it wouldn't be a secret mission anymore, now would it? Aww, but you don't have to worry about me. I'll be just fine. How's the little easter egg? Did it hatch yet? I'm just curious. Whoops, gotta go! I'm not completely done with my mission yet, so I won't be back for a while. Sorry, if you'd miss me ^_~. Ja ne!
Xellos
P.s.
What's wrong with 'Fi-fi'? It's a cute name!
Finishing the letter, Filia grinned. It's nice to know that he's doing okay-WHAT AM I SAYING?! I WANT him dead! But not really-WAIT! Yes I do! No-YES! AAHH!! Being thoroughly confused, Filia once again took out a sheet of paper and a pen.
Xellos,
Fine, don't tell me what your mission is. I don't care anyway. AND I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU TO STOP CALLING ME FI-FI!! . NAMAGOMI! XP And what was that you said about ME missing YOU? HAH! As if I would. I'm doing perfectly fine WITHOUT you around. So take your time completing your mission. Relax. Take your time, so I could relax. Oh, and Val is NOT AN EASTER EGG!! No, he hasn't hatched yet. =_= And you better not try to convert him to your evil, horrible mazoku ways once he IS hatched. 'Cause if you do, then I'll give you another formal introduction to Mace-sama!! So, back off! Understand?
Filia
P.s.
'Fi-fi' sounds like a name you give to a dog! And I am NOT a dog. Now, 'namagomi' is a name that REALLY suits YOU...
Smiling, Filia sealed the letter in another yellow envelope and laid it onto her nightstand. She happily walked down the stairs, humming a small tune. He actually got her letter. Maybe he'll get her other letter, too. Her smile brightened as she thought of other things to write about. Maybe things won't be so lonely and boring around here after all...
~*~*~*~
Several more days had passed and Filia continued to receive and write letters from and to Xellos. The letters came so frequently that reading and writing letters became a part of her morning routine. She'd wake up every morning, rain or shine, stretch, comb her hair, change her clothes, and then sit down to read a letter (a new one came everyday).
Filia found that she wasn't at all bored anymore. In fact, she now had something to look forward to each day: the letters. She LIKED reading the letters. Some of them made her upset, angry, laugh, and sometimes even worried. What would happen if her pen-pal suddenly wasn't able to write to her? But then she'd remember that Xellos was a mazoku, and a very powerful one. Nothing could happen to him.
Sometimes, Filia would even find herself thinking about him even when she's not writing. Now, Filia would usually think about Xellos. Yeah. She'd think about how much she hated him, or how annoying he is, or how much she'd want to hit him with her mace. The scary thing was that now she was starting to think of Xellos as a FRIEND (BlueJ: AAAH!! The world is going to end!!). Now THAT is scary.
Anyways, Filia was just waking up to another beautiful day. She got up, stretched, combed her hair, changed her clothes, and sat down to read her letter. She excitedly opened the purple envelope and pulled out the letter.
Dear Fi-chan,
^_^ Hi, again Fi-chan! Hey, that wasn't a very nice thing you said about my Beast Master in your last letter =_=!! I should kill you for that. But I won't. Just 'cause I'm nice ^_^. You know what Fi? I was sitting in a tree yesterday, when I suddenly realized how LONG this mission is taking! Sorry for taking so long. Heh, heh, heh, I honestly didn't think it would take so long. Things are getting a bit complicating. But if you're wondering WHAT is, all I could say is...that's a secret! Anyways, the first thing I'll do once this mission is done is come visit you ^_^! Well, actually I have to go and report to Beast Master. THEN I'll visit you. It's a bit strange, though. I think I kind of miss you, Fi-fi. Heh, heh, heh, I guess that was a weird thing to say. Oh, well. I gotta go now. So, ja ne!
Xellos
P.s.
You never answered my first question, Fi. Tell me. Yes or no?
"First question?" a questioningly look crossed her face. " 'Yes or no?' What is he talking about??"
After a couple more minutes of pondering, Filia gave up trying to think of the 'first question' and wrote a letter asking him instead.
Xellos,
Do you really miss me? Are you serious? 'Cause if you are, that's kind of scary. But I'll live. I guess I kind of miss you too. Things have been pretty quiet around here when you're gone. And I have to admit, things haven't been THAT perfect around here. Yeah, I guess I do miss you, too. A little bit. A teeny bit. Yeah. Okay, that's all I have to say for now. Oh! Before I forget to ask, what do you mean by 'You didn't answer my first question'? Which question was that?
Filia
Finishing the letter, Filia slipped it into another yellow envelope. After sealing it once more, she laid it onto her nightstand.
"Well, I guess he'll get it sooner or later," Filia walked down the stairs. "I think I'll just go make myself some breakfast! -^_^-"
~*The next day*~
The sun shone brightly outside Filia's window as she slowly awakened from her sleep. Filia stretched and got up from her bed. She smiled as she turned to her nightstand. To her surprise, the yellow envelope was still there, right where she had put it the other day.
"That's strange," Filia blinked at the letter. "I thought he would have gotten my letter...oh, well," Filia shrugged. "Maybe he just forgot to write back. I'm sure he'll get it tomorrow."
With that conclusion, Filia continued her morning routine as usual.
~*A week later*~
Filia sat on her bed, staring depressingly at the yellow envelope that still sat on her nightstand. She sighed heavily and wondered why Xellos hadn't written for so long.
"What's happened to him?" Filia asked no one in particular. "Why hasn't he written? Has he forgotten to write for SEVEN WHOLE DAYS??" A sudden thought hit her. What if something happened to him? Something bad? Soon Filia found herself actually WORRYING about her namagomi. Yes, HER namagomi. "N-No, I shouldn't be worrying. He's a mazoku. A strong one. He could take care of himself. He just hasn't found the time to write to me yet. He's busy." She nodded in confirmation, but she still couldn't get that scary feeling that something happened to go away.
"It's just so early in the morning. I bet this feeling would go away after I eat breakfast. Then I'll be fully awake and I'll come to my senses." Filia climbed down the stairs to her kitchen. "I think I'll just have some eggs and toast."
As she took out some bread she realized that she had ran out of eggs.
"Well, this is a good time to go do some shopping," Filia put on a light coat and walked outside to the market. It was a bit crowded but she was able to make her way around the crowd and to the grocery store. As she approached the counter, the cashier smiled at her.
"Good morning, Miss Filia!" He greeted. "What could I help you with today? ^_^"
"^_^ Oh, I'd like a dozen of eggs, please."
"Sure thing, miss," And the cashier went to get her eggs. As Filia waited for her groceries, she noticed how many people were about this morning. Many of the people were out with their friends, talking happily, or doing chores. Yup, another ordinary morning in the market. Filia quietly listened to all the many sounds in the shop.
"Oh, look at that cute dress, Emily! Isn't it beautiful?"
"How much does this fish cost, sir?"
"Bobby! Don't touch that! You might break it!"
"Auntie, can I have this?"
"Beth, did you hear about that mazoku attack?"
Yup, it was an ordinary-WAIT A MINUTE! Mazoku attacks?? Filia listened closely to the conversation that she had just heard.
"Mazoku?" an old lady, Beth, asked her white haired friend. "Julie, what mazoku attack?"
"You know, the one that was near this very city!" Filia concentrated on listening as Julie began her tale. "Now, I've only heard rumors about it, but yes there was a terrible fight down near the northern side of the city."
"No!"
"Yes," Julie nodded. "Yes, it was just a while ago, too. It was terrible! Word around says that there were many of those horrid creatures all over the place! And they were all heading towards this city. Just think of all the trouble we would have had if they had succeeded!"
"Oh, they were stopped? How?" Beth asked questioningly.
"I don't really know," Julie stated. "But I heard that someone came and stopped them. ALL of them! But the strange thing is that they say our savor wasn't human. In fact, they say that a MAZOKU stopped them all. A mazoku! But I don't really believe that...what kind of person would attack their own race?"
Filia was so busy listening in to the conversation that she didn't even notice the cashier had come back with her groceries until he tapped her on the shoulder.
"Oh! Thank you, sir," Filia handed the man money for her groceries and turned around to look for the ladies, whom were headed towards the door. "Excuse me! Miss!"
The elderly friends stopped and turned to face Filia.
"Oh, hello dear," Julie greeted. "Is there something I can help you with?"
"Yes," Filia nodded and smiled. "I was just listening to your conversation-I'm SO sorry for eavesdropping-and I heard you talking about a mazoku that saved our city. Do you know what he looked like?"
"Oh, well, I heard he had dark colored hair-black or purple, I can't remember-and-and he carried around a long stick (BlueJ: *sweatdrop* A stick??) with some sort of jewel on top," Julie's face screwed up a bit as she tried to remember the description of said mazoku.
"Oh!" Filia's smile widened. "That's Xellos! I know it is! Miss, do you know where he is?"
"W-Where he is?" a sudden look of sorrow crossed the old woman's face. "Oh, I'm sorry, dear. Word around says that he died in battle."
The eggs splattered as they hit the ground.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
PurpleP: *more relaxed* Well? Are you feeling any emotions? Sadness for poor Fi? Anger towards whoever killed Xel? Happiness if you hate Xel? DAMN ANY OF YOU WHO DO!!! *waves fist at all Xel-haters*
BlueJ: -_-; *sigh* And I thought she was going to make it through her sugar high.
PurpleP: Anyways, pretty pleazie review! I want to know how you all think about my little ficcie! Thankies! Ja ne, for now! *waves*
