Hm...I just remembered something. When Nadil was revived with his head, Alfeegi was dead. Oh well, this chapter might explain....a little, very little. Maybe...

as for the disclaimer...1st chapter says....

Chapter 2

"Sometimes, I think I still hear his voice," Lykouleon told Raselene.

"It shows, most of the time, you act like Alfeegi is still here," Raselene said, "still ordering everyone around the Dragon Castle."

"And now Rune's gone...with the white dragon ball."

"Don't you think that maybe Nohiro should go with him? Yesterday, Ruwalk walked past me mumbling something about Nohiro. I can't remember much of it though."

"We'll see, if Rune really needs him."

"Tetheus, what are you doing here?" Rune asked.

Rune was in the darna shed when Tetheus came. Tetheus' dark eyes, and aura even sent Alfeegi calm. ((Has Alfeegi ever gotten mad at him?))

"The Lord sent me here along with you, I need to do some observations on Fiori Forrest." Tetheus directly stated.

So, they got the darnas out of the shed, and flew to Fiori Forrest ((a fast transition)).

Rune got off his darna, and took a look around. Everything looked normal, the trees have re-grown from the time when Silk was controlled by Nadil. Rune looked over at Tetheus, who was busy scribbling notes. So Rune decided to just leave.

Rune walked through the forest as he did once before, with Nohiro. Walk. Walk. Walk. There's not much to do in the forest except this anyways.

"Wait..." Rune paused in front of the entrance to the Water Realm.

"Of course!" Rune thought, "The only way to get into the heart of the Realm, I need Nohiro! Stupid authoress! She forgot to type Nohiro in to come with me!"

Rune sat down under a tree, and waited in the shade. Waiting for the authoress to have Nohiro come in. Rune brushed his hand along the grass, blades soft like the sea. Like water.

For this once, feeling lonely since Rath and Thatz weren't around, Rune summoned his dragon out.

"Water...." He whispered.

The water dragon rose out of the sword, in it's lizard form.

--Morning, Master--

"Yes, good morning." Rune hazily said, "do you recognize this place?"

The water dragon nodded it's head, and took a stroll around the tree trunk. Rune leaned all his weight against the tree, still waiting.

"Water, what do you think you're doing?"

Water was munching on something black. Rune's pants were black.

"Are you hungry enough to eat my pants like a goat?!?" Rune nearly shouted.

--moo--

Rune checked his pants, and noticed that there wasn't a hole in his pants.

"Wait, what? You're eating...a flower?"

Rune noticed that Water was sitting next to a small community of flowers. The flowers traveled from the tree trunk, to under the bushes. Rune shifted the bush aside, seeing more flowers under the bush. They were hiding as if they were hiding from the sunlight, or they just don't need it.

"Could it be...a dark flower?" Rune plucked off a flower. It was black instead of white. Where the purple center just was, now is red like blood.

"Water, spit that out." Rune commanded.

Water spat out the infected pieces of the flower all over Rune.

"Oh, please. Now I really need a bath in the Realm." Rune wiped the petals off of himself.

"Who wants to take a bath?" a voice called from above.

Rune looked up, it was Nohiro.

"Hurry up and play your flute." Rune said nervously. Nohiro smiled sweetly for him.

The sound of his flute is like the sound of a phoenix. Many lost souls in the wind, flow with the melody.

The door slowly opened.
