"But...what about you..?"
"It must be done...completely.."
"It..must be done..." Filia mumbled in her sleep. She buried her head in pillow, trying hard not to let the sunlight streeming from her window take away her last moments of sleep.
"It...must be-huh?"
She abrubtly sat up in her bed and rubbed her groggy eyes.
"What must be done?" she asked the emptiness of her room "Did I just have a-no! It was just a dream...not a prophocy or anything..."
The beautiful dragon looked around her room once more before stepping out of her bed and heading for her vainity.
"It wasn't exactly like a prophocy.." she said to herself as she sat down and began to brush her hair absentmindedly. "But...it wasn't just a dream..."
"Morning Fi-chan!"
"AHH! Namagomi!" she screamed in suprise, practicely falling out of her seat!
"Ah..." Xelloss sighed as he continued to float above her "I still seem to have a way of sweeping you off your feet ne?"
"Listen you piece of garbage! You have 5-count em-5 second to get your sorry excuse for an ass out of my room or you will find your self missing a very important piece of you anatamy! Got it!"
She shook an angery fist at him as she tried to find her robe. She was having a bit of difficultly since she was trying to cover up her not-so-modest nightware.
"I mean it!"
"Ok ok!" the mazoku giggled as he transported out of the room to the kitchen.
"Good Lord of Nightmares..." she grumbled finally finding her stubbernly lost robe " So much for a peaceful sunday"
"Xelloss!" Filia called as she walked down the stairs "I hope your not trying to make coffee again! Remember the last time-"
She stopped abrubtly at the suprisingly empty kitchen.
"Xelloss?"
She turned and checked the livingroom and found nothing. Then she when to the front and checked the shop. Still there was no one insight.
"Where could he be?" the dragon sighed annoyed. Suddenly a tapping at the window stole her attention. The earily winter sunlight was blocking her vision of the person at the shop window.
"I'm sorry" she said coming closer " but the pottery shop is closed. It's sunday"
"I know miss.." said the raspy voice behind the glass "But I have something that might be of interest to you.."
"I'm sorry but I doubt that you have anything that might interest-"
"A golden dragon?"
Filia gasped and took a step back.
"Actually I think that this would very much interest a dragon like yourself ,Miss"
"Who ARE you!" Filia cried as she flug open the shop door "How do you know-"
But as she looked outside...no one was there...only the chinkling of the shop door bell ringing by her head..
"Xelloss..." she growled "He's probly just playing a morning joke or-"
Suddenly something on the ground caught her eye..
"Huh? A map?" she mummbled at the the rolled up paper she retrieve from the ground.
The seal on it was ancient, she could tell. It looked like a horse of some kind..no not a horse. She began to look closer and as she did she began to get the most weirdest sensation. The horse on the seal...had a horn...
"Hey what's that?"
"Oh! Xelloss you scared me!" she gasped in suprise
She turned around and saw him standing there with a strange look on his face...well stranger than usual that is..
"What's your problem?" the dragon asked when she saw his expression
"uh..Nothing.." he scratched his head a bit in confusion "I just thought that I sence a high consentration of magicial energy around here. But when I checked there was nothing around here"
"So that's were you went"
"That and then some" he smiled "Everywhere else is...a secret"
"Baka.." she scoffed walking passed him
"Well anyway..what's the map?"
"Hmm I don't know..some one left it by the door. I don't know who though"
"May I see?"
"Hmph! Just because I have allow you to be in my presence these last few monthes doesn't mean I'm going to start confiding in you mazoku!"
"Fine...so I guess you don't want to know what that seal means..."
"What, and you know?"
"As a matter of fact..."
She waiting expectingly for his responce
"That's a secret"
"Ohh! You stupid monster!" she growled in anger. She tried to hit him with the map for good measure but just ended up giving him an easy way to snatch it from her hands!
"Give that back!"
"In good time" he smiled once more as he wagged his finger at her "After all this might be of use to-"
Suddenly he's seemingly closed eyes snapped open in shock and suprise as he stared at the seal on the map.
"Where...did you get this Filia?" he demanded, his purple eyes not leaving the seal in his hands "Who did you get this from?"
"Huh? I told you, I don't know. I didn't see the person who left it. Why? What's wrong?"
"I don't believe it..."
"Xelloss! What the heck does that seal mean?"
"It's the sign...of the Unicorn..."
"WHAT"
