Disclaimer: I don't own Baten Kaitos or the characters :( Just some drabble I thought up, right after Kalas' betrayal. Please R&R.
Hollow
All of Xelha's features glowed, and a smile graced her face as she murmured,
"It feels like there's a warmth inside of me. Its a wonderful feeling." Elanor couldn't have felt more different. It felt like there was a hollow space all around her, like she was missing something so important that she just couldn't go on without it, and yet...she had to. She had to trudge on for the sake of others, for the sake of innocents not yet corrupted by greed. She wanted to feel bitter and angry, and though she did, she felt more...empty. She felt like her soul had been ripped from her. Kalas had betrayed her; betrayed her in such an unfathomable way that she just wanted to give up. She didn't want to be a guardian spirit on a planet of selfish creatures. Whenever her thoughts turned that way, her vision began to blur and sometimes everything went completely black, until Xelha called her back. But Xelha couldn't understand; she didn't know what it was like to spend your whole life with someone and then in a second...that's it, they're gone.
"Its a wonderful feeling." Apparently Kalas hadn't thought so. He had cast her aside in a second, after all their time together...He claimed she had forgotten, but some things you can't forget...She may have lost the memories, but the feelings still remained. That was the only reason she continued; to find her Kalas, and set the record straight.
Phoenixfire1389- thx 4 reveiwing :D glad you liked it, i totally agree that they didn't go into the betrayal enough! There was plenty of room for some interesting stuff but they just kinda brushed by it :( this was initially a one-shot, but i guess i could write another, maybe.
Ephraim-kun- Thx for the lovely review:)
