Dragon Chyld – I have read your fanfic and it was so good. I am doing my best to have a fanfic just like yours! Oh yeah, I haven't thought about it much the other characters will be having appearances to. I forgot that they would be worried if they haven't returned yet.

To chibi usagi: Thanks for the review and tip. You're right they should take their time to develop their feelings. At first, I thought this fic would only take six chapters but I guess not. I'll take your advice! Thanks again!

Sophia was in a garden that is as lovely as heaven. There was a stream nearby and she was fascinated by it. She went close to the stream. Images from the past showed upon the spring. She knew it all, of course. There were certain images that made her heart beat fast especially when the image was about a certain man that recently saved him. The last image was quite different. She hasn't seen it in the past. It was about Albel that was leaving her.

Sophia woke up. Tears started falling from her eyes. She didn't like the last image at all. Not now. Not know that she has developed certain feelings for Albel. She was alone in this dark cave with a small light near her. She continued crying.

Albel was near the cave. He has various fruits and berries in hand. He heard her crying. Her crying made him sad somehow. He went into the cave to know what was wrong with her. Without hesitation she got near her.

"What's wrong?" Albel said.

"…sob….sob…" Sophia said.

Albel couldn't hear her so he went nearer her. He sat down beside her.

" I had a dream." Voiced out Sophia in a really low voice.

"Hmmm?" said a confused Albel.

"You..were…you..leaving…me…" Sophia said.

Then it happened. Albel just instantly hugged her close to him. He didn't know the reason why but he did. Sophia was surprised.

"It's okay its just a dream. See, I'm right here."

It was know dark and the two of them are alone under the moon's beautiful glow.
