CHAPTER SEVEN

Tsume and Toboe

"It's Cheza. I can hear Cheza's song." Toboe said pointing out the obvious.

"Her song?" The human who could not hear it asked.

"Why is she crying like that?"

"I don't know, it's so sad."

"Are you hearing Cheza's voice?" The human asked not aware that he wasn't gonna get an answer.

Tsume and Toboe reacted to the sad song in the only way they could…bear it until they could make Cheza feel better later.

Bang, Bang, Bang Lady Jagada

"Welcome to the great feast, tonight Jagada's paradise will be loosed upon the world." With that she began to twirl in the midst of all her followers.

Hige and Blue

"I'm sorry I made you run so much." Hige apologized to her.

"It's ok." She replied.

"I have to go."

"You're gonna save them aren't you?"

"Yea I have to at least try." He said smiling. "I guess I always thought it was luck that brought me to them, what a joke. I was nothing but trouble for those guys right from the beginning."

"That's not true."

"Yes it is, but I honestly didn't remember anything. I just thought we could all make it to paradise. The whole way here that's all that was going through my mind. And then we ended up in this place." He scratches his head and smiles at her. "That's why, I have to go."

"Then I'll go with you!"

"I knew you would say that, but I can't let you."

"Why not?"

"I need you to wait here."

"No Hige, don't leave me behind."

"I won't, please Blue if I know your waiting for me, I'll make it back no matter what. It's the only thing that can get me through this. If I know you're here I won't give up. I'll do whatever it takes to come back to you, I promise, I'll never leave you alone Blue." She nodded to him and watched as he jumped away to Jagada's keep.

Darcia

Darcia enters the room where Jagada is twirling. All of her followers drop dead.

Kiba

"Cheza."

Darcia

"Cheza" the human sees the flower maiden strung up in her water bubble.

"I've been waiting for you." Lady Jagada says to Darcia. Darcia removes his mask to reveal one wolf eye and one human eye. Jagada removes hers to reveal beautiful blond hair and violet eyes. Darcia isn't too bad looking himself.

"I never imagined I would look upon that face again in my lifetime." Darcia to Jagada.

"The countinents of your beloved maiden."

"She's your younger sister as I recall."

"You know it as well as I, that her soul was lost ever since that day. But you were the only one unwilling to face the truth, so I released you from that heavy burden. I did it all for you my beloved." She cooed to Darcia. "Yes, we were only alike in face and body. If Hamona was light than I was shadow. I was content with that. Then you appeared and thrust us into turmoil. The unrivaled instigator, Darcia the third. You brought it all upon yourself. Come let us dance." She finished by extending her hand.
