The Dreams of Gaia

A/n: Hi guys! Sorry for the late update! It's not Griever's Ruler's fault though…it's mine. I had an important examination and well…it's over. Anyway…we present to you…the next chapter of The Dreams of Gaia.

By the way, the animals in this story ate only fruits. Regardless of prey or predators we all know. However, they will change their eating habits, of what we all know, much later in the chapters. The reasons…well…just read and we shall see!

Chapter 3: First Meeting


Griever strolled into the forest and when he finally saw his master, he quickly quickened his pace.

Where did you go? Squall demanded as he saw his creature coming towards him.

Outside Master… I heared something outside and decided to take a look.

How many times I need to tell you that outside might be dangerous... Don't you go there again! Squall warned.

Yes Master.

Griever wanted to tell Squall what he saw outside but as he had promised Angelo, he would not tell the exact details but he would, however, asked for his view.

Master?

Yes?

What if…there is somewhere out there…a creature like you?

Squall did not reply. Instead, this got him thinking…what if there was someone like him? Well…the truth was…he wasn't sure but one thing he knew for sure, that perhaps, he would not be lonely…

That…that will be nice. Squall replied

Griever nodded. Now, he shall wait for the next day, to see what Angelo's master would reply.


Angelo!

Angelo knew that she was in trouble with the looks of her master. Inwardly, she sighed with relief when she noticed that the worried face of her master had changed from a furious face to a worried and concern face.

Master.

Where did you go? Rinoa demanded.

Well…near the forest. Angelo replied.

Forest?

The forest? That is what you called that place full of tall green trees

Okay. But where did you get that term? Rinoa asked.

Well…I came up with myself. Angelo lied.

Okay, but next time…DON'T ever run away like that again! Rinoa warned.

Yes Master.

Angelo watched her Master sat down and enjoying the wind blowing her. After some time, Angelo decided to ask her, about other possible creature that was just like her.

Master?

Yes?

What do you think about someone who has the ability to create creatures like you?

Rinoa stayed silent for a minute. The truth was…she was more than happy to know that there would be someone who could create new lives with her and perhaps, talk to her.

That…that will be great. Rinoa replied.

Angelo nodded. The next day, she shall tell Griever about what her master thought of it. Now, she hoped that Griever's master was thinking the same way too.


The next day

Griever and Angelo met at the same spot they had met the previous day. Griever managed to slip past Squall, lying to him that he wanted to find some food, and so did Angelo.

"So, we meet again." Griever said.

"Yes, we do." Angelo replied.

"So, what's your master replied?" both creatures asked at the same time.

"You go first," Griever said. Angelo nodded.

"My master said that it will be great if there is someone like you, how about yours? I hope that she also feel the same."

"It's he. Not she." Griever corrected when he heard the wrong pronoun.

"He? Well, we always describe each other as 'she'. Didn't really noticed that. What's the difference?" Angelo said.

Griever shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe this is the term both our master have different opinions on. Anyway, like your master, my master said that it will be nice if there is someone like him."

Angelo nodded. She was glad that both of their master were willing to have creatures like themselves!

"So, when do you think we can arrange them to meet?" Griever asked.

"Well, I am not sure. Maybe, during when they find food? By the way, what do you eat?" Angelo asked, curious.

"Well, we eat fruits like banana, grapes and apples. The snake helped us to pluck the fruits off. He is the only one who can glide up and down the tree."

Angelo nodded.

"Well, the monkey helped us to pluck the coconuts off the trees. She is the only one who can climb up and down. But sometimes I wondered, where she got the yellow fruits. Must be from your forest. She is one sneaky one."

Griever nodded. "There will be what we called banana. So when are we…"

Griever was cut when he heard a noise near by. So did Angelo, and they quickly rushed to the site.

WHO ARE YOU!

WHO ARE YOU!

When Griever and Angelo rushed to the site, they were shocked that one of their friends, the snake and monkey, were staring at each other angrily.

What is it snake? Griever asked.

This furry creature took our bananas!

Your banana? I didn't see your name on it! Retorted the monkey.

Peace. Peace. We are friends. Angelo tried to reason.

Friends? We don't even know who they are and our master does not create them! The monkey said

Well our masters are about the same. So, quit it! Griever said.

What happened?

Griever and Angelo both gasped in shock. Their masters were here! They could hear their thoughts right now.

The monkey quickly rushed to her master side and the snake quickly gilded towards his master. The monkey rest herself upon Rinoa's shoulder while the snake coiled himself around Squall's neck region.

That ball tried to steal our fruits!

The slime string was trying to stop me from taking our supply of food!

Both answered at the same time.

Angelo and Griever looked from Rinoa and to Squall. And they found some differences in their physical appearances. However, they knew that both of them belonged to the same kind. Right now, they were worried about how their masters would feel about each of them.

As both Squall and Rinoa turned their attention to their creatures, they never paid attention what's in front of them. When their animals finished replying the answers to them.

They looked up and for the very first time, the two creators of lives' eyes met one another. Bright brown eyes finding themselves staring at an almost similar shape's eyes except for the colour. Blue-gray eyes. And for the very moment, time stood very still, and the place was very silence, for the moment.

How would they react to each other?


A/N: So well, how exactly will they react to each other? Will they scream with joy or something else? Stay tuned for the next chapter of Dreams of Gaia and you will not be disappointed! Please Read and Review! We will be very grateful if you do!
