Ok now my usual psychotic thank-you's :

Darkgoddess - I love your fic so much. I often read it over and over again. (What sad is I sometimes start yelling at my computer when Dilandau and Ray act stupid, my mom still thinks I'm psychotic, well duh mom how long did it take you to figure that out *grin*.) Lets see pulls out bag and jumps in looking for the perfect gift to give. AHA! Jumps out with five foot chocolate (or vanilla with any filling) Unicorn. Here you go... And a large bag of hands clapping. enjoy

Thundersenshi17- glad you like it um.... I figure you'll be busy a while *coughs with Miguel* So I give you a hologram to take your place and a nurse's uniform, and sorry about the mallet I didn't expect for it to fall from the ceiling (mental note kill courier)..... Enjoy.

Love Witch- My lips are sealed. And thanks, have some fuzzy hand cuffs just so I can laugh. *Gives cuffs and Van then starts giggling through rest of reviews until getting to Sakura*

Kitkat- for clawing me feet when I tried to fall asleep. Thank you el cato

Mona- Thaz from dragon knights I'll let you elaborate

Tika- strawberry jell-o

Mei-ling- Trowa any location for however long you want enjoy

And to Sakura- Wufei....... And........ A pink fuzzy bra that fits you *Jumps and runs to her bathroom locking the door trying to save her life taking the computer with her repeating the phrase (I love you, don't kill me)* and just to get on your good side. I'm now giving Mona 500 fuzzy thongs (Maybe you can ask to borrow one to match just kidding)

Mona: *death glare* WHAT DID YOU SAY!

Ru: (Checks bathroom door to make sure it's locked) um.... I love you.....

Mona: No you don't *Trying to break the door down*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh yes I will give the privilege of almost killing Alan (someone gets to impale him with a spoon, or rusty syringe... Your choice.) to whoever can answer this question for me. Did and when did Dilandau see Van was Draconian? (Don't worry thunder, you'll still get to hurt him with your sword)

Oh yeah to clear up the age issues: Folken is 23, Van is 17, Hitomi 16, Draka 16, Dilandau 17. When Van was two his father died and Folken failed to slay the dragon, Varia, his mother tried to find him while she was pregnant with Draka. But you'll find that out in the next few chapters.

I dedicate this chapter in memory of Bob the tree *starts crying* he died at as such a young sapling. We love you Bob.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Morning~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The morning was a fresh, new day. One that cloaked yesterday's mishaps in Draka's opinion. She started the day in her usual routine, in different settings. She washed up, got dressed and wrote in her diary:

7/17

I feel like dying today. My life is so complicated, everything seems to bring nothing but awkward experiences. I want to go home, Folken still has yet to tell me why I'm here. *knock on door* I must go now Chesta says it's time for breakfast. That coward won't even face what he's used, I hate him so much.

Today's thought for the day: Upon the wing's of precious doves. I struggle to learn if my love loves.


She left her room and followed her friend Chesta to the dinning room. There she found Sakura and Folken waiting. She sat down and watched her plate. It had two pieces of toast and some fruit. She mindlessly began eating when Dilandau walked in.

"Sorry I'm late I had a long night"- Dilandau hushed. He looked at Draka, noting that her hair was up in a bun again, with two chopsticks, and as usual she was in pants. He sat down across from her groaning inwardly at his luck. There was an unusual eerie silence at the table, just the sounds of food being chewed. Dilandau got up and looked at Folken. Who only nodded as he left, taking Chesta with him.
"Brother why am I here I want to go back."-Draka. He looked at her and sighed, while Sakura got up and excused herself.
"To be forward with why your here, I'm going to put you under Dilandau's command. You are growing and I need to be sure your safe."- Folken -(plus it will surly cause you two to fall in love with one another, not just the infatuation you feel now.) He looked at his sister she was ridged but still kept her composure, reminding him of his mother and father. She lost it-
"I will not, and my decision is final, if you want to protect me just lock me away again as you've been doing. I refuse to live my life answering to that pompous Asshole!"-Draka storming out of the room.
"That did not go as I planned."- Folken, wondering what made his sister so upset. While Draka stomped to the guest room Sakura was staying in.
"Bad news?"- Sakura. Concerned why her friend was so angry.
"Oh nothing It's just, FOLKEN PUTTING ME UNDER THAT ASSHOLE'S COMMAND!"-dra. (She has such a potty mouth when she's angry it's great.)
"Man your really pissed about this aren't you?"- Sa.
"Well something happened last night after we fought in front of you.... He followed me to my room and we fought there."-Dra.
"Big surprise when you left he started yelling about you were such a hard ass, and claiming your not so tough, the sad part was he wasn't even speaking to Chesta and I, he was talking to himself."-Sa nodding
"I don't know I just have to get out of here what should I do?"-Dra
"*Starts thinking* aha I've got it you know how we're stopped at the fort of the knight from Austria?".-Sa
"Yeah, so?"-dra
"Run away and seek refuge with him, you'll get away from your brother and that bastard Dilandau."-Sa
"I wouldn't call him that I mean after the fight we did *Starts mumbling*"- dra.
"What was that? Shit, how far did you get?"-Sa
"Relax, I mean it was just a kiss and he ran off afterwards, it's just....... he used me."- Dra
"I'm going to kill him *calmly*, no one uses my friends!"-Sa
"Shut up, it's okay I'm just going to take your advice and run away so do me a favor, tell my brother I'm sorry, and as for you don't pick fights with him please....."- Dra pleading. Sakura looked at her for a second and nodded than contently change the subject.
"We picked a date. The wedding is in a year, think you'll be able to make it right?"-Sa
"Of coarse but I have to go now, I looked on the schedule sheet, and they are leaving in twenty minutes will you be ok, while I'm gone."-Dra
"Yeah, I mean who wouldn't with Chesta as their husband-to-be"-Sa.
" Hey No nookie for you" -Draka who was walking out the door, leaving the other girl shocked and blushing. She grabbed a bag from her room then ran to the docking bay. She watched as one of the ships descended and another started to follow. She crept up behind it and climbed in hiding in the back of the storage bay. She waited until it stopped the climbed back out amazed at her new surroundings. their was a beautiful fort in front of her with lush green trees all around. She quickly sneaked inside before anyone noticed her. As she was looking for a place to hide she ran into a man with long blond hair.
"Oh gods I am so sorry, I'm such a klutz"- Dra
"Not at all I should have been paying attention, you know, not walking into beautiful women like that. I'm Alan Schezar, knight of Asturia, who might you be" placing a gentle kiss on her hand.
"Oh I'm Draka, Draka Fanel "-dra blushing slightly -(he's cute in a way but I prefer platinum to blond, wait am I..... no I'm not, I can't, can I? No, I won't I refuse to fall for Dilandau, he's a jerk.)- now fuming at herself.
"Are you here with Zaibach?"- Alan. She shifted under his gaze. Then answered as truthfully as she could.
"In a way my brother is part of it and I was visiting, but now I just want to go back home (where ever that is she thought inwardly) so I came to ask the head knight of this castle if I can stay for a day or two until I can find a horse to take me home, I mean I have money to pay for it all I just need to ask their permission."-Dra.
"That's fine with me, I just need to warn you about some of our other guests they can be a little chauvinistic. " - watching the young female before him. She thanked him as he called down one of his men to escort her to her room. When she finally came down to the main hall she was surprised at the voice she heard.
"The king of Fanelia is a coward he ran away from his country like a weak petty child."- Dilandau.

Van was about to react even with Hitomi holding on to him until he noticed a girl walk down the steps of a nearby staircase looking unusually agitated she walked up behind the albino tapped him on the shoulder and punched him as soon as he turned around. He got up from the floor and the two began arguing he listened to the conversation before being dragged off by Merle. He was quiet surprised at what he did hear it was along the lines of: "If you say something about my brother being weak again I'll kill you..- girl" "You've been saying that a lot Sylvia I wonder if you'll ever follow through." What he failed to see was the result of this girl pulling a knife up to the mans throat and making a small cut, then pushing him to the ground. He was sure he heard right, but him having a sister. He figured he'd talk to the girl later, she and that other arrogant man obviously had something going and he didn't want to be brought into it. He took Hitomi and began to depart in Escaflowne when Alan stepped in front of the opening in Scharized (sp?) he challenged him and the two began fighting.


(Oy I'm sick right now and typing is taking a lot out of me but still I must go on...... Oh yeah before we go on I have to continue the friendly battle that happened when Sakura and Mona read this).

I'm locked in my bathroom both of the doors are being pounded on and both are treating to kill me. The lights go out and a door opens revealing two females engulfed in flames. They step forward, I step back still typing on my computer..... I'm so scared just as they go for the kill I tell them if I don't finish my fic people will be angry with them. They start laughing methodically as I think to myself "oh shit!"
"Oh we aren't going to kill you"- Mona.
"No we are just going to make you do something that your actually crazy enough to do on your own." sakura still crackling. Both girl's start whispering in her ear. Her eyes widen and her face is beet red.
"And you have to do it in this chapter."-Sakura
Ruby- *on hands and knees pleading* "No please anything but that."
"Do it"- Mona.
"Fine *looks at screen and starts typing specifically to magicman repeating to herself you had to show them cosmo knowing they'd use it against you.*, I'm so sorry magic please forgive me..... Hi I'm from cosmo and I'm conducting a sex survey I was wondering if I can take some measurements *Blush*"- Ruby runs and hides in bathroom again while Sakura and Mona plead for her to come out,

~~~~~~~~~~(damn them) oh crap I'm writing ......Where D/D are at.~~~~~~~
Dilandau laid on his bed in his room thinking. He knocked out Draka as soon as she began cutting. He just didn't realizes how angry she was at him especially after last night. He brought her unconscious body back onto the vione and talked to Folken. That was when his day got bad or good from a different point of view. Folken told him that to keep her from running away again she would have to stay in his room. And there he was now looking up at his ceiling as she twisted and turned next to him. To make sure she wouldn't get away she even had to sleep in the same bed with him. He started to stiffen when she rolled closer draping herself on his torso and placing her head on his shoulder. Little did he know she was awake and testing him. She was awake when her brother gave him the order to keep her in his chambers, and was more than willing to get into the position to kill him. But as she laid there, waiting for him to sleep, it occurred to her, he wasn't trying anything. Thus she tried a different approach to see if given the perfect opportunity would he go for it. He got nervous there she was the most perfect girl he had ever meet and she hated him, not to mention she was lying on him in a very suggestive position. He slowly pulled her off and laid her beside him.
"I know it may be hard for you to believe this but I'd never take advantage of a woman, and even though I can't tell you this when your awake I want you to know.....I care about you deeply and ....we just can't be together...... Everything I have I destroy slowly but surly, and I can't let that happen to you, I...... Love you."-Dilandau more shocked with himself than anything else, what surprised him more was when Draka's eyes opened and she crawled on top of him again. (Kinky Kinky!) He looked in her deep blue eyes and saw love, pure and simple.
"Take me, *Noticing his shocked state she went on to explain*I want to show you I'm not porcelain and I won't brake"-Dra.
He was about to protest until she silenced him with a kiss. They started making out until their was a knock on the door. She looked at him sighing, and gave him a final kiss before moving away and assumed the position of a sleeping wild child. He got up and opened the door to see Chesta in a excited state, knowing he was also interrupted with a session with female.
"Lord Dilandau we've seen the dragon. We are moving to intercept, and we need you to lead us into battle."-Chesta.
"Fine I'll be there in five minutes"- Dil. Looking back at Draka. He closed the door and placed on his armor. Noting the fact that she had yet to move. "I'll make it up to you I promise."- Dil. Quietly walking out the door.


And I'm spent bet you all thought there was going to be a lemon in this chapter. Well I'm sorry to disappoint you but I promise I'll make a alternate chapter nothing but lemons. Sadly thought that won't be until 11 or 12. In the next chapter we are going to have Van get captured and If I feel up to it Draka's going to show her wings. And to magic I'm so sorry. This is my first fic. And they were going to kill me if I didn't do it, I'm actually being truthful, they were going to kill me. To make it up to you I give you Hitomi for a week enjoy. Now I hafta go I'm running a fever and I really need rest badly. Luv ya.
