the plot!!! Mwahahahahhahaaaaaaa! *
Chapter 31
Korona
Blade had searched through out the city with no avail. Dava had simply vanished. He searched until he reached the city gate guards.
"Excuse me? Have you seen a woman with black red hair walk this way?" Blade asked.
"Yes, there was this one young woman…she seemed to be angry after killing a nearby bug with out a second glance." The guard answered.
"Thank you gentlemen." Blade said and left the city, passing the rotting corpse of the monster. Where have you gone Dava?
He traveled the plains and then he went straight to the Galbadian coast. There he saw a car…as he walked nearer a rancid smell reached his nose. He walked around the car only to find to his horror of what was left of the soldier patrol unit. He winced when he looked at a headless carcass and walked on surveying the scene, hoping to find Dava. He walked upon the cool sand looked around yet Dava was nowhere to be found. A glinting object caught his eye and as he walked closer he saw Silverraine's hilt sticking from the sand. What the hell? Why aren't you with Dava? He pulled the blade out of the sand and noticed that it was fractured. The jagged edges shimmered and died finally as did the sunset. Blade franticly looked around, his silver blonde hair flying wildly into his aqua eyes, hoping to find any other inkling. He saw another part of the blade submerged in the sand next to some feathers. He picked up the rest of Silverraine and gathered the feathers. They smelled wild…wherever Dava was she was in trouble. He clenched the feathers with vigor and vowed: I'll find you Dava…I promise.

Korona was sipping some red wine when she felt a presence of a beast- flying overhead. Several minutes later the beast flew in from the grand balcony and skidded across the marble floors, it's talons scratching the smooth surface. He ruffled his fur and from his back fell the young woman he had promised to save, the young sorceress.
"What have you brought me Jakan? Food for my minions?" Korona asked crisply. She watched her daughter's foster brother preen his neck feathers.
"I have brought a woman in need of help." Jakan began and fluffed his beak through another feather, "I promised her that I would help her and I do not know the ways of a sorceress. So I brought her to you." He explained and went back to cleaning his bloodied coat.
"What do you mean my kind of ways? Is this woman a sorceress?" she asked skeptically. Her ebony black hair, which was unbound to her waist, crackled with impatient power.
"What? You can't feel her power? What kind of sorceress are you? If that creature was conscious she would be able to point her finger and fry your pretty little face." Jakan answered. Korona was a bit surprised and shocked by his rude remark, but instead of killing him, she and her third eye to see if what he spoke was true. Everything around her was colored in gray black tones, but before her was a sphere of wild power the color of white fire. So bright and fierce that it made her wince and veil her eye with magic. Then she wondered, Ultimecia had such great power… Korona began to probe closer expecting the orb of fire and as she floated closer, the air around her eye was heavy and pressuring.
Korona shook her head and sat down, it seemed as if that girl had a thousand shells on her. I can't believe it…this woman is more powerful then me? I who had been trained by great Ultimecia herself? She looked at the breathing maiden and wished that she were back into the future where she was born. But no! The only way to get home was to trap this realm into time compression, travel home, and lock into the ultimate power orb. Once she had this she would be able to avenge her mistress's death…
"Guards! Take this woman to the guest chamber and feed her when she wakes." Korona commanded. The shadows that seemed to be part of the walls shivered and several basilisks bowed to their empress and grabbed the unconscious woman, carrying her away from Korona's sight.
"You may leave Jakan." Korona said with disgust. Jakan grudgingly bowed forcefully and flew off muttering curses in his own tongue.
Korona heavily flopped down upon her chair and held her head thinking…what will I do with that wench? Jakan said she was young in her arts. Maybe I can use her to my own advantage? Possess her now when she is weak! Yes, that I shall do: besides these walls are beginning to bore me.

Eve ran into her shadowed mind and cringed away from the physical pain she felt before. Eve cursed by allowing herself get into that situation. Why didn't I use my powers?!
:Because you were distracted and if you focused you could have killed them off…probably with the city nearby: her conscious spoke up finally.
:Where have you been?! Where were you when I needed you?: Eve yelled.
:Home sweet home…: her conscience voice whispering.
: What? Where is my real body?:
: We are fine, we are home…: the voice whispered.
Eve felt herself get dragged back to the painful world. She opened her azure eyes to find herself in a canopy-topped bed. There was but one window stained in black, scarlet and gray glass, a table nearby and two doors opposite of each other.
Eve swung her legs over the edge of the divan and looked around. As she stood up she grasped the wooden banister as her head whirled from nausea. She inhaled the crisp cool air and exhaled hoping it would help her pass over the pain that ebbed at her brain. She was correct and after some quiet immovable minutes she felt better. From the corner of her eye she glimpsed a moving shadow, yet when she swerved her head toward the source all she found was a silver tray with food upon it. Grapes and a variety of fruits were placed in one crimson bowl, some slices of bread and a silver lined bowl with some steaming contents full of a delicious meat and veggies. The delicious aroma tempted her stomach as her mouth began to drool at the sight. Once she was done eating the last grape on the green-stemmed vine she heard the door open. Eve quickly stood up and stared at the shadowy form of a tall woman.
"My, my, my…I'm glad that you are awake. You've been asleep for quite some time." The woman began.
"Where am I? How long have I been knocked out?" Eve inquired. Eve hoped with all her soul that she hadn't been asleep for years like she once was when at the age of eight.
"You are in my humble abode, and you have been asleep for two days, my dear." The woman answered. Eve looked over the woman who had now entered the moonlights cast. Her hair was black as night itself with two silver strands that crackled silently with energy. Her eyes had a deep, but vibrant shade of violet. Her host was about a head taller then her and black shadows clung to her back, partially covered by her silky hair. Though somehow, for some odd reason Eve felt like she had once known her.
"Who are you?" asked Eve.
"I am Sorceress Korona, Korona Nemesis if you prefer to know my last name as well. Now the question is, who are you?" asked Korona.
"I am Dava Icehart." Eve answered. No body, not even this woman needed to know her true identity.
"Well, Dava, I have felt this great mass of magic surrounding you…ready to use, yet wilder then I have ever seen, except once." Korona walked toward the window, tracing her thin pale fingers across the glass surface, "My question exactly is, where did you obtain such power?"
"I was born like this." Eve replied.
"That's impossible!" the sorceress burst out, "the only sorceresses alive are my daughter, and I and the occasional bitch thief, Sorceress Rinoa."
Eve clenched her teeth at the remark about her own mother, but she swallowed her anger and kept listening.
"If you were born with these powers then you must have received them from the one and only person…" Korona didn't finish that sentence but glared at her guest soon to be prisoner, "Your mother is Rinoa Leonhart? Is she not? And your father, that wretched killer." Eve was getting quite uneasy.
"You are mistaken, I have no parents." She lied.
"Liar! I see your resemblance in her and I see your fathers spirit in you!" Korona countered. There was no way that this creature would ever live to see another day. Wait, maybe there is a way that I can kill her slowly, then get myself messy now. Yes, the void, where time does not exist.
Eve didn't like the deathly air around her as the sorceress closed her eyes and concentrated. She backed away looking at the door but snake-like creatures stood there guarding the exit. Then suddenly, a flash of darkness overwhelmed her. She tried to open her eyes, but she could only see pitch empty darkness. The girl screamed before falling into the deep void of nothing.
* Yes, I know! You guys are wondering where the hell I ran off to…..well even though I promised earlier to update every Mon. I guess I'm not good at keeping promises. *shrugs innocently* also, the story will go on and be written only by me!!! So, there's your answer Hell Stalker ^^*
