Dimensions Apart: Chapter 12

Feelings Showing

Sadako awakened to the chirping of birds. Once again, it was another beautiful day in Le-Koro. She stretched herself, revealing her large bat-like wings, and letting out a yawn, which sounded more like the roar of a beast. She then caped her wings over her shoulders. When she stepped outside she saw groups of Le-Matoran, some working, most playing around.

"Good morning Sadako!" came Lewa's cheerful voice.

"Morning!" Sadako greeted in return.

With a wide grin on his face, Lewa asked, "Do you want to go sun-soaring with me?"

"Of course!" she replied. She would never turn down an invitation to go flying, or in her case gliding, with Lewa.

Lewa smiled as he turned his katanas into glider wings, and flew into the air. Sadako uncapped her wings and began digging her talons into a tree as she climbed to the top. Once at the top she spread her wings, and leapt into the wind. She looked up, and saw Lewa flying directly above her. She had developed feelings for the Toa of Air, but for some reason, she couldn't tell him.

Could this be love? She wondered. If so, how can I tell him?

"Sadako?" Lewa called, snapping the gargoyle from her thought. "I have something I want to show-see you. Come on!"

"Ok, but where is it?"

"You'll see!" he said with a wink. "It's this way-direction!"

Sadako nodded, gliding after the green Toa. They flew over a particular part of the jungle where she'd never been before. They landed in a tree just below. Sadako took a look around, but they were so high up in the tree, all she could see were leaves. She felt a hand grab her wrist, and pull her forward. Balancing carefully on the tree, Sadako let the hand lead her out of the treetop. Finally she found herself on a branch, Lewa holding her wrist, a smile on his mask. He pointed into the clearing below them. Sadako gasped. Below them was a clearing, which full of beautiful flowers.

"Lewa… it's beautiful…" she said, not knowing what else to say.

"Glad you like-enjoy it." Lewa said, smiling at Sadako's expression. "Because I've been…waiting-looking for someone special, to share-show it with."

"Really?" Sadako asked, astonished that he felt the same way she did.

Lewa nodded, looking a bit embarrassed. Unable to contain herself any longer, the gargoyle launched herself at the Toa and hugged him. She realized what she was doing, and quickly let go.

"Sorry-oops…" she said, than realized she had just said something in tree-speak again.

Gah, I gotta stop doing that! She thought.

For the rest of the time they were in the clearing, neither said anything else, for nothing needed to be said. They merely held hands, and watched the sun set…
