Chapter 2 - Romeo and Juliet.........
"You know, i thought i had him all figured out.....Lyserg i mean" Yoh commented as he glanced at Gin, who seemed to be far too mopey for her own good. "Hmm?" she mumbled, adrift in her own daydream. It was such a pleasant day, far too nice to even be contemplating fighting, but, it had to be done. "Yeah, me too" she finally answered.
Ren glared, "The X-laws wanted to fight, well, now they're getting their fight". Gin looked up at him. "I ain't arguing Ren, i agree with you". She frowned. "They need to be put in their place".
As usual, Doby village was busy and bustling with people visiting overpriced stores all day, before their battles. "Especially if they think Yoh is evil......we're here now, so.....".
Ren interjected, "they must be eradicated". Gin nodded and stood up, "Yup".
"Well, i feel like taking a walk for a while guys......I'll see you later...". Ren watched her leave, golden eyes following her movement as she slunk off. Yoh started snickering and nudged him. "Will you get lost!" he snapped back at Yoh, blushing and refusing to look at her at all anymore.
As she walked she seemed to be illuminated in the sunlight, her hair was a very pale blonde and her eyes a pale, emerald green, a blue neckchief around her neck, and a black tanktop, lined with blue also, and it also had some kind of blue scripture across it, her trousers were a navy blue also, and her shoes were black.
None of the stalls caught her eye, though people eager to sell things desperately tried to get her attention as she walked. "Man, I'm bored, it's never exciting unless we're in a fight Nami....". Gin mumbled to a ghostly floating head, the miniature form that Amidamaru often took.
"I know......" agreed Nami, who hovered beside her.
"It's so hot too, and the food is way too expensive" Gin continued to complain.
Nami was actually a female assassin, a feudal times assassin, who had belonged to a clan named 'The Black Lotus' she was executed in an attempt to kill one of the emperors from the opposing kingdoms. Now she was 'reduced' to being the guardian of an 'obnoxious' teenage girl.
A beeping sound was heard, and Gin looked to her wrist to read the name of her next opponent. "Great......the X-laws....i have to face him Nami". "When?" asked Nami. "Two days....maybe i can convince him to quit before then".
Nami raised a questioning ghostly 'brow. "I thought you gave up on Lyserg?".
"Wrong" Gin countered.
Finally the sun had gone down, and she had perched herself by the lake that lead to the glowing fountain where the king of spirits dwelled. She smiled, it was so peaceful and tranquil she enjoyed it a lot.
"It's nice here". Nami responded by hovering around with a smile.
"I agree" another voice countered. As if knowing who it was already, Gin shrugged. "I'm not supposed to face you till tomorrow".
Lyserg shrugged. "I'm allowed to come here".
Gin shrugged, "true 'dat". She sighed and ran her fingers through the water.
"I wish you wouldn't resent me....". He mumbled. She frowned but didn't look at him, "don't bother Lyserg, you tried to hurt my friends.....and you hurt me too when you left". He sighed, "i didn't mean it Gin, you have to understand".
Gin shrugged, "i don't have to understand anything". He looked at the floor. "I know how it feels though, i lost my parents too....remember?" Gin added. He nodded and smiled, "i remember, i remember how you made me feel better too".
Giving in she sighed, "I remember how you made me feel better too". Nami rolled her eyes and floated off. Lyserg paused, "where are you staying?". Thinking a moment, Gin wrote something on his hand, see me?". He shrugged, "if you want, if you don't hate me anymore". She smiled, "i don't, come tonight ok?".
