Sorry this chapter took so long... My Grandpa has been in hospital for the past few weeks... and it hasn't been a good time...
Jhoeydagger(did I spell that right?): Au-... I mean... Kurosawa-sama
(spelling? Is that what you're ok with me calling you? *memory has flown out the window...*)
has been very helpful, she's not really... flaming in a sense.... it's more... constructive criticism...
Black Pearl: ...read Kurosawa's review for my Cardcaptors story...
and take some flaming tips from that... your review is as cuddly as a kitten compared to that.
Wow... people like how I've done Dilandau... I don't... he's a LOT better than that...
and I'm not a real hyper fan girl... one of my friends is...
upon hearing the name 'Van' she starts quite literally bouncing off the walls...
when I hear 'Dilandau'... I merely get pushed out of reality for a while...
pretty much the same thing that happens when I listen to my Linkin Park CD (me no own)
Any ways... to the story... and this time... I remember the disclaimer...
DISCLAIMER: marinaaurora owns nothing but Marina and Saph (yes! Saph is IN this CHAPTER!!!)
Chapter 16
Doppelganger Revealed
"Run by me, how we got here again…" I said,
"Folken has my sword, which has the symbol of Fanelia on it, which means no matter how many times I say 'I'm Von Fanel,'
they won't believe me, because there is no proof." I groaned,
"Just our luck right?" Van kicked the bars, gritted his teeth in pain, and nodded. "Well, do you think they'll find us?" I asked,
"Who?" Van asked as he flopped to the floor,
"Allen, Merle and Millerna" I felt tired, but after that fertility potion joke, there was no WAY I was going to sleep any where NEAR him!!
"I don't know…I don't think Freud will be the first place they'll think of…" he answered,
"Then where will they look?" I leant back against the wall,
"I don't know…probably look for Escaflowne…" Van sighed,
"You mean…you took Escaflowne with you…" he nodded, "You idiot! So that means…"
"Escaflowne is now property of Zaibach…" I heard a familiar voice,
"Allen!" I said, I ran up to the bars, I know... I don't like him that much... but after being stuck in a cell with Van...
anyone would be considered good company...
"Don't worry, you'll be free soon…" Millerna smiled,
"How did you find us?" I blinked,
"Merle oddly knew you were here…so here we are!" Allen smiled,
"Where's Merle?" Van asked, coming up to the bars,
"She's asleep, she wouldn't let herself rest until now because she was sure you were safe," Millerna smiled, Van gave a sigh of relief
"When do you think we'll be out of here?" I asked,
"They are preparing a shaman, who will cast a spell on you to make you tell the utmost truth, he'll be here tomorrow.
So, get some sleep, you'll need it." Allen and Millerna vanished the way they came.
"Well…that was strange..." I said, blinked,
"You're telling me…" Van said. He lay down, and fell into slumber, when I was sure he was deeply asleep,
I let myself drown in my dreams...
"Marina?" a light voice asked, I opened an eye,
"Yes?" I said, yawning, and rubbing the sleep from my eyes...
"Is…is it true? You are from the Mystic Moon?" a woman, probably as old as Allen, came up to the bars of the cell, I nodded, groggily my vision blurred...
After a few seconds... I was starting to see her form, she wore long robes that drapped over the floor like a carpet... they didn't look too comfortable......
They were green and silver... with the symbol of Freid emblazoned upon the front ... which I thought was a horrible combination...
her hair was light brown... and her eyes were a deep vermillion...
"Well…I just wanted to check…" her eyes had fallen on Van, and she smiled slightly...
probably getting ideas I wouldn't want to know about.... I bristled, I didn't like her,
"Who are you?" I asked,
"Me? Oh…Just Saph…one of the most trusted councillors of the Duchy of Freud…" she smiled, I nodded,
"Fine…." I yawned, I saw her bristle, I closed my eyes and went back to sleep,
'I really do think I am going to hate this woman…'
It was so sudden, I was in the room, across the table from him.
The shaman was in an orange robe, he had a shaved head, just a little sort of, little braid left going down the back of his head,
I had be put under his spell... I would let his spell come over me....
I felt it....come around me like a blanket of the deepest night.
"Where am I?" I asked the darkness, the monk appeared,
"Give me it!" he growled,
"Give you what?" I felt something pull me towards him, I fought it, trying to move away,
"Give me the pendant!" he growled,
"NO! You will never have my pendant!" Than the water came around me, clearing away the monk image, I saw his true for...
"Doppelganger…" I whispered, suddenly the pressure closed in on me, I screamed, there was darkness, than nothing…nothing at all...
. I don't like this chapter too much... it's not as good....as the others
What do you think? Please review! And don't use short type like 'c u l8tr' and such... it gets a bit annoying... and I'm not trying to be rude, it's just I would like to be able to read my reviews easily...
