Deceitful irony
A/N: sorry it took so long I was too busy.
Disclaimer: I don't own Escaflowne
Bitter Mildew. That was the first thing his senses picked up. Then the constant drips of water on a hard surface could be heard. He saw a blurry bright room increasing his severe headache. The walls were gray and cold. Chills shook his tired body and that's when he noticed his arms where pinned up to cold stone wall.
"Unh I feel like I died." He said feeling his muscles and bones ache.
"You did. And I brought you back." Said an unfamiliar voice, a woman's voice.
"Who are you?" the man demanded.
She stepped into the light. "Evilian and you're welcome." She said with a sneer.
He didn't thank her; instead he only tried to figure her out. Why she preserved him and kept him here. Is she the one who's behind all of this?
She looked disgruntled "Humph Fine maybe I should have left you out there to die Van!" (C'mon guys you really believe I would kill off my favorite character. What the heck?! J/k) She turned on her heal to leave but he called her back.
"Wait! What's wrong with me? Why can't I see?" he asked trying to bring her into focus.
"Silly" she giggled in an almost innocent voice. "Wait for them to adjust. Remember you DID die."
"You mean I really did die" She nodded. Her long platinum gold hair spilled down her blood red epaulet. The contrasting colors were clear to Van but was still unable to focus on any features. Trying to remember his own death he stared at the slate wall.
'Blood. So much blood. My blood. But no pain anymore. Fear. Fearing the thought of loosing everything. Love. Fighting for love of everything. Hate. Hating the enemy who shot me and eventually killed me!'
"Where's that Guymelef?! Where's Escaflowne?!" "Calm down. It's alright I have a team of Espano creators. It's fixed that's why you live."
"What about that Guymelef that killed me?!"
"Don't worry. The beam never killed you. I ordered one of my men to grab you before it hit. Heh you're acting like you're still dead." She said like it was the most common thing in the world. Like an oblivious little girl. She certainly sounded young enough.
"You? You were the one in that Guymelef?! But why?! Why did you do that?"
"Because!" She said in a jealous and irritated voice. "I hate your little Utopia of Fanelia! Your perfect little country! I hate it!"
"Well I created the Utopia why didn't you just leave me dead?" He glowered under his thick tousle.
Her cheeks went to a deep hue but didn't answer. She just turned to leave.
"Wait."
"Now what?"
"What is of Fanelia?"
"Heh. I sent my men to destroy it yesterday."
"What?"
"Yep It's all gone" she said cheerily.
'Oh my gosh. I've lost.. Everything.. I failed..'
"Hitomi." His eyes watered
"Hitomi. is that her name? I've sent my best man to personally kill her."
"..No-o-o-o..." He sobbed with his head lowered. His body wracked and she left him alone. And alone he was. Absolutely no one for him. It seemed living was in vain.
"I should have died." He spoke aloud as tears plummeted to the cold stone under his feet.
This was the second day that they have been traveling. They were deep into the forest. Thankfully they haven't encountered any dragons which are abundant to this forest. Besides there was no means of protection anyway all was there was a merchant, a cat girl, a princess and a pregnant foreigner. What a band of misfits.
"You went crazy!"
"What?!" Hitomi said looking up from her dazed look.
"When you cut your hair! That's why you can't remember! You snapped! I knew you were always crazy." She joked.
"Yeah thanks Merle but I really don't need that now."
"Dryden where are we going?" Milerna questioned him, who was leading.
"Austoria. We'll seek refuge with your sister."
"How long will that take?"
"We're almost there about another day or so."
"Awww. then we're not almost there. Let's go faster!" Merle insisted.
"That's not wise with Hitomi being in her condition."
"Yeah speaking of condition I don't feel good. Can we rest?"
"It would take longer but I don't want to stress you or the baby." He said concerned.
The dismounted and tied their horses to a tree as Dryden started creating a makeshift shelter, while Merle and Milerna gathered wood. Hitomi felt useless just standing there, knowing that she would be yelled at if she lifted a finger so she sat down hopping that her stomach would settle. They spent the night there to rest for tomorrow's traitorous journey.
There I finally got it in.::sigh:: It was so funny how many threats I got for "killing off" Van. Well what I want to do is a Zelda story where Link is a pimp!!! (Isn't he already?) Only one chapter though. Then I'll get back to this. Summer IS coming though so I will finish this story. Oh I can't wait. Cuz my friend and me are also planning a x-men story (action, Romance) with two new characters! I know X-Men isn't really romantic, oh but I'll make it. Anyway yeah I'll get this done soon. I also have some Gundam Wing ideas. So many stories so little time.
