The wind swept over the top of the school, and a young girl lay there, listening to the wind, lost in deep thought.
"Van..."
Hitomi couldn't stop thinking of him; couldn't stop seeing his face and hearing his voice. Ever since that fateful day that the Mystic Moon reappeared, and she had flown away from him, he was all that she could think of. The strangest thing was that she saw him at the most innopportune times. For instance, the other day while trying out for the track team that she had quit before meeting him, She heard his voice, almost as if he were running alongside her. This had startled her so much that she tripped over her own feet, making a fool of herself, and damaging her chances at making the team again.
She had given up on the senseless suicide and death letters, and decided that maybe, life needed to be lived for a change. She needed to go on, like Van did. She needed to be more like Van...
She needed to be with Van.
How could she hide it anymore? She needed him desperately. He was her every thought and dream, her every breath of life that she took. He was her obsession, and her downfall in life in this world. She didn't belong here... She belonged in Gaea, with him, with her soul and her destiny.... She was the Wing Goddess...
She stood up, and went to the edge of the building, and climbed up on the side. She wasn't scared of heights. Even looking at the long drop down below no longer scared her. What would, when she had seen such wonders?
The breeze strengthened, and Hitomi thought she heard his voice again, calling her to follow it....
She knew what she had to do.
Hitomi focused every thought on the essence of Gaea, and closed her eyes.
She began to sing...
"Win dain a lotica...En vai tu ri, Si lo ta..."
She was going home.
