OK peoples, this chapter is done in Elli's P.O.V so here's number 15

Chapter 15: Elli's gone

Elli got up to find Dante gone; as she had expected. She got up and made breakfast for this 'Dan' guy that had come to their house, and for Cliff who was working the farm today for Dante while he was gone. Cliff came in as she began to put on her apron.

"Hey Elli, glad to see your happy and energetic today" Said Cliff beaming with energy himself, the boy was only maybe a year older than herself and tended to play the part of her older brother when Dante was not around, he felt that he had to protect her for Dante; he was after all Dante's best friend.

"Thank you Cliff, I am having a good day, but I miss him already, and he's only been gone two hours.." Said Elli sadly. Cliff came over and hugged her for comfort.

"He'll be back at the end of the day, he couldn't live without you Elli. He and I are like best buddies, which iswhy I'm doing this for him. But the day he was with you in the hospital I came and talked to him for a little while, he really couldn't take it being without you. If he ever did decide to leave you i'd kill him myself, you are like the younger sister i never had!" Said Cliff convincingly. He let go of Elli and departed to the farm to start work.

Dante had taken Fable so that she would have some kind of warning if he got injured while out; butElli was lonely without anyone here. She thought about getting a pet cat to keep her company while Dante had Fable. She would go and get one after she asked if he minded.

Soon another person swept into the door looking very cheerful.

"Hello my dear, how's breakfast coming, do you need a hand, I still have one operational one" Said Dan from the doorway.

"No, I'm fine, please keep your flattery tone for town floozy's, I'm in the middle of cooking breakfast and I don't want to barf into the porridge" Said Elli irritably; she did not like guys trying to move in on her when her finance was away.

"You cut me deep Miss Elli, you cut me real deep" Said Dan shrugging his shoulders and taking a seat at the table.

Elli gave him his porridge and set about her chores cleaning the house and dusting. Dan sat at the table and ate silently, not a word from him, just the way she wanted it. When Dan left, Elli exhaled, she hadn't realised she had been holding her breath waiting for him to leave. She continued to work for a while and finished the day's chores sooner than usual. The only thing left to do was to sit and knit. She had already knitted many mats and blankets for the houseand clothes for her future child. She wasn't pregnant yet, but as soon as they had had the wedding and Dante was ready, she would have her own child to raise.

Elli put the knitting needles down after two rows, she couldn't concentrate properly. When Dante was there she spent most of her time staring out the window at him, or playing with Fable or Night, all of her companions were out. Soon Dan came back through the door. A good-looking man, dark hair and dark eyes, he almost looked like an older and more built version of Dante. But what Dante lacked in muscle on this man, he would surely out match Dan in a race or fight with his swiftness. Elli looked up at Dan, into his dark eyes; they were a more sorrowful version of Dante's, though slightly different somehow. Dan stared back at Elli with an evil look on his face. She dragged her eyes away from them and waited for him to exit.

Dan exited shortly after Elli refused to look at him. Elli's nerves were getting to her, she decided to find some cloth out of her box of materials and decorate one of the cabinet tops with it. She picked out a blue one; her favourite colour, and put it over the top of the cabinet. The blue looked a little plain, and Elli had nothing to do, so she took it off again and decided to decorate it with white flowers that she had learned to sow. She began to embroider white flowers onto the aqua coloured material.

Elli heard the noise of a pitter-patter of feet, like a mouse; a very delicate mouse.She got up and searched around her chair, shemoved the chair forward to find a small person behind the chair. Elli pinched her cheek to see if she was dreaming; little people, seriously! But Elli did not wake up, and the little person remained where they had been. It began to speak to her.

"I'm Aqua, I'm a Harvest Sprite. Don't hurt me" Said the Sprite timidly.

"I won't hurt you, what are you doing here" Said Elli in a soft voice, she was curious about Harvest Sprites. She had heard about them, read about them, but she had never seen them. Well in actual fact they were more stories or people in fairy tales that helped good farmers, Elli would not have believed the person really there if it had never of spoke.

"I saw that pretty embroidering that you were doing and I wanted to get a closer look" Said the Sprite with a little squeak of a voice.

Elli sat back down in the armchair and put the little Sprite on the arm so that he could watch her sow the flowers onto the material. The Sprite soon picked up the pattern and embroidered the other cloth that Elli had hanging around. While the little Sprite was off in the kitchen decorating doilies and curtains, Elli picked out some Aqua material and started to embroider some wisps of wind and other elemental signs onto the edges. When she had gone around all the edges she cut and stitched the material into the shape of Aqua and began to sow more elemental signs on the hems and sleeves of the coat.

"I am done in the kitchen Mistress Elli, please come and see my work" Said the Sprite eagerly.

Elli walked into the kitchen to find every cloth embroidered with rainbows, birds, fish, flowers, animals, other nature elements and other colourful material. The kitchen looked beautiful; colourful and beautiful. It was Elli's dream to have a kitchen so beautiful and colourful. Elli just looked at the Sprite with a beaming smile. The Sprite looked happy to please. Elli could not hold in the happiness to have a companion and such a beautiful kitchen, she picked up the Sprite and hugged him. The sprite hugged back as hard as he could; with tiny arms and all he could barely hug her wrist but the feeling was there.

Elli set the Sprite down and began dusting and cleaning again, everything seemed in place, but she had nothing else to do other than clean. Soonshe came to behind the television and other cabinets, she began to try to move them to get behind them; but without Dante, she could not move them an inch. The sprite took up a duster, from nowhere it seemed, it was so small, and began dusting behind the cabinets and in nooks and crannies that Elli could not reach on her own.She went off and dusted elsewhere and soon, together, Elli and Aqua had finished the housework. Dante would be pleased when he got home.

Soon Elli's perfect day was ruined, Cliff walked in and said his goodbyes, and shortly after, Dan walked in for a chat, she supposed anyway.

"Elli my dear, how has your day been?" Said Dan coming close to her and trapping her in a hug so that she had to look up into his eyes; such penetrating eyes.

"What have I told you about that language?" Said Elli in a fury.

"I know you didn't mean it" Said Dan slipping a hand to her buttocks. Elli tried to move his hand, but as she tried to move it, he squeezed her buttocks.

"Let go of me, I belong to Dante" Said Elli trying to stop him from clenching her bottom and kiss her.

"Well whether you want me or not, you are going to be my little wife, you are going to bear my children and you are going to be mine whenever I ask, you are going to be mine to hurt Dante forever!" Said Dan with an evil smile playing on his lips.

Dan picked Elli up and easily chucked her over his shoulder. Elli tried to scream as she worked out that his other arm was working fine when he gagged her with it. She was taken out of the house, tied to a horse and blindfolded. Elli had no idea what was happening, other than the horse was moving at a canter away from the farm.

Two hours later: Dante'sP.O.V

Dante, Night and Fable packed all the lumber into the lumber shed and went inside. Dante had found a rare flower to give to Elli.He went inside and swept into the room where Elli would have been waiting for his return. Dante was surprised to find that she wasn't there; she was always in bed at 8pm. Dante went through the house and barns and began to worry. Dante searched the entire farm and took Night around the whole town. He got back to the farm and checked again, tears streaming his face.

She was gone, she was gone again..no one knew where she was, he had no idea how to find her, he had nothing. There were no clues as to where to look. He sat and mourned her. Fable came and sat by him and Night came and breathed over his head. Dante patted them both and could tell that they felt his sorrow. He vowed then and there.

"Together, Fable, Night, we will find her, I don't know where to look, I don't know how to start, all I know is I will chase her until I die" Said Dante with dignity and pride. Fable howled in agreement and Night whinnied in agreement. Tonight Dante would leave, soon he would find Elli.

Again i got a few complaints about this one, some of the story has been fixed and a few minor details added, though anything that is relevant that i add will be added into other chapters so that everyone is sure to get them. Thanks again, please R&R.
