*This is part 7 I hope you like it!*
*Chambers*
Hitomi and the princess seemed to have talked forever.
"And so my father king of Atlan Layer decided to wed me to this horrible man. He was a pig. I swear. He would shove food so fast up his mouth that you sometimes would wonder where did that 9 pound pig go?"
Hitomi laughed. "You have had the life."
"Yeah right," laughed Alian.
"So you're the princess of Atlan Layer?" asked Hitomi.
"No, I'm one of the princesses. There are 7 of us. Too many if you ask me. I'd always get treated like I was boring or uninteresting to my father. All he ever wanted from me was a grandchild. I doubt it." Snorted Alian.
"Well I've been there," said Hitomi.
"Really? You're a Dracolian?"
"ER I'm not sure. I only have had the wings for a week or so but they don't seem to work at all. They've only worked twice and it was when I was really emotional about someone." Hitomi blushed at the thought of Van.
"What do you mean for a week that doesn't make sense."
"I know. You see Van teared out his own blood to save my life when I was almost dying. He saved me. But I still don't understand why." Hitomi sighed softly.
"Like that Dracolian story! There once was a boy and girl. The girl was in love with him as he was her. The problem was that the boy was rich and she wasn't. His father didn't allow the boy to see the girl. So one day as the girl was sneaking in to meet the boy in the night his father shot the girl. They say she fell down and died. The young boy couldn't believe it. His only secret was that he was a dracolian. He sliced his hand when he was in the garden, by a rose bush. He ran towards her and picked her up. His blood seeped into her wound and it healed her."
Hitomi breathed. "That was a beautiful romance for two people to fall in love."
"Do you promise to keep a secret?" asked Alian.
"Sure of course," answered Hitomi
"Well I thought that Folken was kinda cute in that mysterious way of his."
"I think Dilandau is rather bold. I just love his silver bladed hair. Alian made a ugly face and fell over the bed. "Dilandau is mean! Have you ever seen the way he beats his warriors?"
Hitomi shook her head. She knew that Dilandau was bad, but it was never like Van had shown any affection, Van had his boring way of playing stupid games. And Hitomi was tired of watching… what was his name again?
Hitomi shook her head. She was getting a headache from thinking so much. "I have to go. Sorry Princess but I'm getting tired and I think I need to relax."
Alian nodded. "That's fine with me." Hitomi turned around to leave. She reached the door. Before she could exit Alian called out.
"Come back please." Hitomi turned around and smiled weakly. Of course Princess."
"And don't call me Princess called me Alian," Alian whispered.
"Sure, I will Prin- I mean Alian."
Hitomi walked out and into the hall. It was so quite and everything seemed to have passed so slowly. It was hard to believe that she had only been here 2 days.
* Van and the dragonslayers *
"Let me go!" Van kicked, screamed, yelled and punched, but still they would not let him go.
Migel whipped out his hand and slapped. "Control yourself king!"
Van snarled at him. "Get away from me you fool!" Migel shook his head. "It seems as if you are the fool. Who was the one that was caught? You or me?" Migel laughed and so did the other dragonslayers.
Gatti yanked up Allen while Migel carried Van. They headed back to base.
Allen glared at Van. "You had no right." Van stared back at Allen. "What are you talking about Allen?"
"A knight of honor and decent will not bawl against the enemy. You will not speak unless spoken to and you will show no fear in your eyes."
Van laughed. "And I have to suspect you do that?" Allen raised his head high. "As one of the heavenly knights of Gaea I make it my business to do so. Maybe you someday will become a heavenly knight like me. If you can keep up with all the work that is put up against you Van."
Van gritted his teeth. Allen always had a way of making fun of him.
"Well lets just see who lost Hitomi," Van piped in
"I didn't lose her, you did. She wouldn't have gone after you if you didn't leave. And she only did that because - oh how do you say this? She had feelings for you."
Van's mouth dropped to an O and he stared at Allen. "Really," was all he could croak out.
"Yeah of course!"
