Chapter 13: NumbFerio sighed, looking up at the dark sky, Fuu heavily on his mind. She was still resting, even after 3 days. He rather be with Fuu at the moment, but Clef forced him out, telling him to go get some sleep of his own.
"Like that is possible…"
Flashback
Lantis sighed, "At least ten thousand people injured, and fifty dead."
"There was so much damage done. It will take enormous will power to repair everything, and I not sure there is enough will power to do so." Presea added sorrowfully.
"Just what caused this earthquake?" Ascot asked.
Clef ran his hand through his lavender hair; his face frowned in distress. "Someone, or a group of people… caused this earthquake with their will." Clef finally replied.
"We just might need a pillar again.." Ferio said, his hands balled into fists.
"THIS ISN'T FUCKING FAIR!"Ferio exploded, punching the wall, leaving a hole, blood raining from his hand.
"That isn't going to help anything." Clef scolded.
Ferio closed his eyes, taking a deep breath, trying to calm his anger, but when he re-opened his eyes, he still looked like a vicious tiger, ready to pounce at the slightest movement.
"Hikaru and the others better not find out about what caused this earthquake." Lantis calmly stated, but his meaning holding much more warmth.
"It would tear them apart… even more than they already are." Presea sadly added.
"They aren't stupid." Ascot rebuked, annoyed that they thought so lowly of the three girls.
"You're right.. but they just might think that natural disaster occurred like before." Lantis defended.
"Nothing is getting better.. only worse and worse." Ferio clenched his teeth, trying to control the anger that was once again building up.
End of Flashback
Ferio fiddled with the ring that meant so much to him. "Emeraude… will you be able to smile again?"
-------------------------------------------
"Lafarga's still resting?" Hikaru asked.
"Yes. Clef said that he won't wake up for quite a while, though he doesn't know how long that is." Umi replied. "Same goes for Fuu." Umi answering Hikaru's question before she got a chance to ask, recognizing the question in Hikaru's eyes.
"The earthquake was probably caused by someone's will." Hikaru randomly stated, sadness overtaking her.
"Not probably, for sure." Umi sighed.
"WE DIDN'T DO A DAMN THING TO HELP! WHY IS EVERYTHING BAD HAPPENING? WHY? WHY!" Hikaru screamed, tears streaming down her face. All Hikaru wanted was to scream all her problems away, for everything to be all right. She couldn't take this anymore. She didn't want to, and she knew she wouldn't be able to soon. All Umi could do was hug the smaller girl.
"Everything is going to be okay. We have to stay strong, we have to hold on our hope. It's the least we can do…" Umi comforted.
Hikaru's screams died down, and the only sound was the crying of two girls.
"No one I love will get hurt again. I have to take this into my own hands." Hikaru promised herself.
----------------------------------------------
"Hmm.. such fond memories this earthquake brought back." Primera smiled, her hair flowing with the breeze, an eerie peaceful expression settled on her face, yet inside her mind was boiling with raw anger. "My Lantis… my precious Lantis, saving me from the last earthquake. My beautiful knight in shining armor, but that wench… only one more plan to finish before Lantis is mine. He is still under that bitch's spell. How dare she try and steal him from me!" Primera growled, but soon a snicker escaped her lips. "O, how much pleasure I shall have completing my final plan." Primera smirked as she wandered into the castle, looking for a certain redhead.
-------------------------------------
Hikaru closed her eyes, silently crying on the inside. She decided she needed some alone time, and told Umi so.
"Lantis…" Hikaru smiled, but a smile too bitter for a girl of only sixteen years. Hikaru heard footsteps getting louder and louder and turned, but quickly turned back around.
It hurt too much.
"Hello, little Hikaru." Primera sweetly said, too sweet for Hikaru's liking.
Hikaru slowly forced herself to turn towards Lantis's 'lover', telling herself she could do this, that everything in the end is going to be okay.
"Hello." Hikaru replied, bowing.
Primera felt disgusted just looking at Hikaru. She couldn't take it anymore. Screw being calm and collected.
"How DARE you even TRY and steal my Lantis?" Primera demanded.
"E-Excuse me?" Hikaru asked confused.
"You heard me BITCH!" Primera spat, suddenly jumping Hikaru, using Hikaru's confusion to her advantage.
"BITCH!" Primera, on top of Hikaru, kept slapping, clawing, and punching Hikaru with both her words and hands. "WENCH!" She wanted to rip her face off, cut her perfect pale skin, claw her ruby-red eyes out, break that petite nose in half, cut her neck, stab her to death, to see her blood spill.
"SLUT! WHORE!" She hated Hikaru, for that Lantis picked her over herself. "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? HE IS MINE! MY LANTIS!" Primera's anger building with every word, every hit; going bloodthirsty for the suffering of Hikaru, for the death of Hikaru. Eyes crazed, her face distorted into a madman's, she was addicted for blood- Hikaru's blood
Hikaru, could do nothing. She was helpless as Primera keep on abusing her, both mentally and physically.
Teeth clenched, tears of blood falling.
Blood.
Everywhere.
Hikaru was too full of depression to care. She felt nothing, her heart numb from the pain.
"Will I ever be saved?"
Just then, she felt the weight of Primera lifted off, and Hikaru slowly opened her eyes as best as she could, but she couldn't see anything, only the blood covering her eyes.
"What the hellis your problem Primera?" was the last thing she heard before everything faded into the comforting darkness.
-----------------------------------------------
Hikaru felt warm, strong arms possessively holding her. She slowly opened her eyes, to face ice blue eyes, expect that they were filled with such love and worry that Hikaru was left breathless.
"Lantis…" Hikaru happily sighed, until everything finally registered in her head. Her eyes widen with shock, tears filled her eyes, and she tried to launch up but only to fall back into Lantis comforting arms because of the sparks of intense pain that flew throughout her body whenever she moved.
"Shh, Hikaru don't push yourself. Fuu is still recovering herself as well and can't heal your wounds just yet. For now, just sleep." Lantis gently but firmly commanded. And sleepiness overwhelmed her desire to get away from Lantis, as she drifted off once again into the peaceful darkness.
--------------------------------------------------
'I WILL KILL THAT DAMN PIXIE! I WILL KILL THAT BITCH! HOW DARE SHE HURT HIKARU. DAMMIT! LET ME GO! I WILL BEAT THAT DAMN THING TO A BLOODY PULP!" A familiar feminine voice screamed with such fierce passion that Hikaru couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in her soul.
Hikaru slowly opened her sore eyes to see Fuu resting beside her, as well as a raging Umi being held back by both Lantis and Eagle, while Clef, Gardina, and Presea tried to calm Umi down.
Hikaru giggled.
Everyone froze, and averted their attention to Hikaru.
Everyone's eyes lit up, and Umi ran over and gently hugged Hikaru. "How are you feeling?"
"I feel like shit." Hikaru honestly replied (for once), "but I feel better by that rage episode you were having over there."
Umi blushed, but smiled.
"Is Fuu doing better?" Hikaru asked.
"Yes, she is doing much better, just needs more rest. But right now, we need to worry about you. Lantis told us about what happened, and Primera is locked in right now." Clef replied.
Hikaru tilted her head, totally confused. "Primera?"
Lantis and Umi looked at each other, until suddenly Lantis eyes widen in shock, realizing what Primera did.
He growled, "I believe that Primera needs to be punished."
Review time yo!
A/n: Sighs.. yes.. I know.. short. Sorry, but at least I updated right right? Haha, hating Primera real bad? And now I am first going to write chapters out on a notebook, then type it up, then proof read it ( but if I don't catch everything I am truly sorry)! Sighs, so much work, so little time, but I had some reviewers say they didn't understand what was going on in the chapters so I guess it is worth it! Anything for my beloved reviewers! And it is kinda of cliffhanger (sorry). Man, I am so tired. Well, now to personal reviews (is it really true? That we can't reply to reviews on the story?):
Selene: Lookie! A new reviewer (unless I have really bad memory.. which infact I do.. .)! Happy me! Lol. We all just want that pixie to suffer a painful death eh?
Alexsis: Lol. Well, I am hoping that you keep your promixe.
Yachtzee (Rayearth-luvr): No worries. I like it! It has a ring to it! Where did you the name from? Well, I hope that this chapter was better. If not, I am terribly sorry. Really? Hm.. well there is a point to the earthquake but I can't really reveal that yet. I think my grammer is dying and etc. because with school here I want to get the update out but being so busy I can't and therefore I rush. Sorry about that! I will try and work on that! But I am glad that you gave your totally honest opinion! I like people who can do that! I want to hear your opinion! Hehe, and now I just realized that you put two reviews for this chapter. Lol. I feel so loved! . I hope this chapter can make you proud! Lol. (sighs.. I use lol too much.. oh well. Lol! See what I mean!)
Sai Hikaru: AH! ME SO HAPPIES!
ShinuTenshi: Lol. Lantis was out of the castle seeing the damage of Cephiro (ya know.. seeing the damage of the towns, etc.) Well.. I didn't see the anime, I only have read the manga. I have seen like number 2 of the anime and that is it. Sorry I can't help you out with that! Hey now! If you review than that definaly is no way a lame review! Makes me happy! Shish! Hehehe.
Firalyn Tiatra: Lol. It is kk. A hard core Lantis and Hikaru fan eh? Well, I hope this chapter made ya happy! Expect.. it really didn't turn out the way I wanted and I am very unsatisfied with that. Sighs.. oh well.
Roseycheeks77: Well well, lookie at who is too effing LAZY TO LOG IN! lol. Kk, sorry about making Fuu the heroine, but I kinda can't really resist to do so. SORRY! But with how they focus only/mainly on Umi and Hikaru in both manga AND anime, I can't help but focus mostly on Fuu. That is the main reason why I started this fanfic, to make a fanfic with the focus on Fuu. To change what I was unhappy in the manga but CLAMP shall and still is always awesome!
Merissala: O.. harsh! Lol. Well, what didn't make sense to you? And did his chapter make sense to you? Because I really hoped it did!
Silvermoon8573: well, I hope this is more Lantis and Hikaru? Well if it isn't, then don't worry, because the next chapter is defintaly more with Lantis and Hikaru.
Svakee2000: LOL. This year I am actually updating! Last year I didn't update because no one reviewed so I gave up on it until one of my really good friends (also the sn user roseycheeks77) told me it was really good and well here I am now! Sighs.. laziness.. needs to work on that.. some other day. Hehehe.
Silvercats: Suxs doesn't it? I so was looking forward to fencing, but no! and that means you read the a/n! lol. Yes there shall be more Lantis and Hikaru fluff but lets be patient! I promise!
Blvd: lol. Ty ty! Lol. Don't worry I shall stay in school.. my parents would KILL me if did otherwise. Lmao!
Thanks to everyone else to reviewed (including hoppy-bunny/meangirl101 and Kuro1107). I hope ya enjoyed reading my fanfic! Please leave me a review! Until next time!
