Chapter 9: Doubts
Unmei no Hana
Last time:
"You…came back. You…came back. How dare you come back after you did such a thing to me!"
There standing in the door, hair and clothes disheveled, was a very mad, very dangerous looking Luna….
Slowly, meticulously, she walked over to Sol and Jenna. Her dark blue eyes flared dangerously as her honey brown swept behind her like the mane of a horse. She stopped halfway to the bed and looked hard at the scene before her. Slowly detangling himself from Jenna, Sol stood up and went to Luna. Coldly he looked her over inch by inch. After a long time, he spoke,
"You seem…well."
Luna snorted at his comment. "Ch, you seem well too. Then again, you always wanted to prove you could take care of yourself. So you have, you ran away to prove that you could protect yourself without the help of anyone else. And guess what, it caused mother to die! You're disgusting."
A bright red aura surrounded Sol as he fumed angrily. Harshly, he retaliated, "You say that I caused her to die? Well, who was the one who left after me? It was you. You!" Before he could say anything more, Luna slapped him sharply. A glowing purple aura surrounded Luna as both of them glared at each other with pure hate.
From her bed, Jenna watched Luna and Sol fight. She began to shake and soon tears began to flow freely down her face. She couldn't bare it anymore.
"STOP!" An ear-splitting scream pierced the air. The two fighters looked over their shoulders to see a very angry, very sad Jenna. "Both of you…both of you caused that person to die. You're equally as bad. You're both disgusting. You're so wrapped up about yourselves, that you can't see the pain you're causing to the people around you!" She then ran out of the room.
Jenna's words hit them like a hard slap. A hard slap to the face. It took awhile for the words to slowly sink in, but once they did, the two fighters felt a wave of guilt wash over them. But, their prides took over and they glared at each other one last time before walked the opposite ways outside the room.
Sobbing, Jenna ran from the house leaving a trail of stunned maids behind her. She didn't even bother putting her shoes on. She just ran. Stumbling through trees, tripping over rocks and roots, tearing branches out her way, Jenna ran. She had no idea where she was going, but that didn't matter to her. All she could think of was to get away. Get away from Sol and Luna.
The sun was just starting to rise when Jenna finally stop. She was on a warm sandy beach. She smelled the salty air and heard the sea gulls shouting over head. Tiredly, she walked to the edge of the beach were a small grove of trees were. Choosing a very shady tree, she sank down. Grateful for the warm sand that acted as her bed, she gently slipped off into a peaceful slumber...
"M-Mia? What are you doing awake at this time of night?"
Ignoring the question, Mia walked slowly towards the stunned Garet and sat next to him on his bed. She fumbled with her hands some before she mustered the courage to speak.
"I-I-I was wondering…before Luna came, did you ever think of me more than a friend? I mean, did you ever want to be more than just good friends?" Garet didn't know what to say. He tried to look for the right words, but nothing would come out of his mouth. Sighing gently, Mia slowly stood up. "I take it that your silence means 'no'. But…but though you may have never known, before Luna came, I loved you. I was always so happy around you. But then she came and ruined my life. So, just remember that…I always did love you." Just as she was about to walk out of the door, Garet finally came to his senses. He burst from his seat and grabbed Mia's hand, spinning her around to face him. Trapping her between him and a wall, he tucked a strand of silky blue hair behind her ear. She looked at him bewilderly as he savored the moment with her in his arms. He buried his face in to her hair and smelled the vanilla scent.
"G-Garet...what are you doing?" She was utterly confused. Garet took awhile longer before he spoke.
"Mia…my Mia. Of course I loved you. I always have. Always…" With that, he slowly leaned in. Tears, coming to her eyes in happiness, Mia leaned up to join him. Her one true wish had been fulfilled. Just as their lips were about to touch…
"Awwww, how sweet!" The next thing they heard was a soft slap and some whinings. A thud was heard and some rustlings were heard afterwards. Giggling gently, Mia slowly opened the door. Light spread through the dark halls and revealed the culprits. There, tangled in each other's limbs, blushed madly were a bashful Ivan and Sheba. They looked somewhat disheveled and their faces were awfully close. Mia smiled gently at the two young lovers and felt pity for Felix knowing that Sheba had most likely made her mind up. Cackling evilly, and rubbing his hands together, Garet had no thought for pity.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here?" Garet said, his eyes twinkling mischievously. A loud bang interrupted them before Ivan could reply. Looking out the window, the quartet saw that they had arrived on a shore. Lying right in plain view was a sleeping Jenna.
Unmei: I know it's been soooo long, but I was really busy. I had finals, thanksgiving, regions, archery tournament, etc. I know that my story is like getting progressively worse, but I'm trying to make it better. Hope you enjoyed this chapter some. Please review!
