Chapter 9: Lies Became True
(It's now 3 years later, Eva is 19.)
Eva laughed. "STAY AWAY FROM ME!" she yelled happily as Vince came after her with the water. She was just working in the hangar from her father, but even when she was the Pilot there, she still worked as mechanic to. She and the other mechanics were good friends, and they often had allot of fun. Against Don's will, of course.
Eva widened her eyes as she was cold now. Vince managed to grab her and also to let the water all over her. She sighed. "You cant stay off of me, can you?" she said playfully.
Vince grinned. "Nope." Eva went to get a towel. She heard the boys scream again, but then immediately turned quiet. No doubt to that, Don Wei was in the room. Grinning she came out while she was drying her hair.
Don Wei was yelling to them that they were unreasonable, childish and allot of other things. "Chill dad, it was just some fun!" she said still grinning. Don Wei turned to her. "Didn't you was young once?" she added to it. Don Wei clearly didn't knew what to say to this, growled, and got back in his office.
Rick laughed. "You still know how to get the old man silent, little mouse!"
Eva smiled at him, and returned to her job.
"But I want to know! Come on.." Lara wanted to hear about Eva's love life again.
"I said no!" Eva replied laughing as she pushed the shop-cart further again. She grabbed some vegetable.
"At least about your love on Oban then!"
At this Eva widened her eyes. She completely forgot that Lara knew that to. She didn't responded.
"Respond please!" Lara said grinning.
"I said no, and I'm not going to say it again!" Eva replied back smiling.
"Whatever.."
They continued walking.
"So, can you do something next Tuesday?"
"No, I think I got a race."
"Ya think?" Lara replied.
"I don't know. Maybe." Lara nodded on that. She understood.
In the 2 years Lara and Eva knew each other, they were practically sisters. Lara was the big sis. Eva could tell everything to her, and they did allot together. If one of them had a problem, they even could call in the middle of the night. Lara was the sister Eva never had.
(2days later)"Ok, I'm here. Whatsup dad?" Eva said while she threw her house-keys on the table, and putted her jacket of.
"We have to go, so keep it on." He said while not looking at her, but at his papers.
"Huh?" Eva replied confused. "Where to?"
Don Wei didn't responded, but walked to his car, with Eva following him.
As Eva sat down next to him, she turned her face to him.
"Where are we going?"
"To the president." He replied simply.
"What? Why?"
"You'll hear later." After that sentence Don Wei remained quiet.
Someone, probably a guard, tried to help Eva out of the car, but she refused it. She didn't need any help. Don Wei got out of it to. He smiled quickly to Eva. Eva only watched at the place with open eyes. She didn't liked where this was going.
The president looked up as the 2 came in. "Ah! Mr. and Miss Wei! How nice to see you here!" he looked at Eva.
Eva smiled back, but she wanted to know why she was here!
"You probably want to know why you are here, Miss Wei?" Eva nodded. The President sent the guards away again, and sat down, with a wave for the father and daughter to sit to. "I already told Don Wei about this, and now I want you to agree to." he said while looking at Eva. Eva raised her eyebrows. "What is it then?"
"A.. A new race is planned. And we agreed to join the race."
Eva widened her eyes. "And what do I have to do with it?"
"Well, we want you to race for Earth."
Eva was delighted by that answer. She would love to!
"On which planet is it?"
"I believe it was called.. Gazalië?"
Eva stopped breathing. She tried to forget about that planet, cause she would never get it back anyway.
"Uhm.. who.. who planned it?"
"The king there, Joseph, with his brother Uhl."
Uhl. That filthy traitor. Eva already knew why he was gone for such a long time. He had joined the Mimieren in his own will.
"Fine." She suddenly said. Don looked at her surprised. That was the last answer he expected. "Who can I bring with me?"
"4 persons." He replied.
"Okay, so that would be.. Koji, Stan, dad, and.." Eva stood quiet.
"I would prefer if you take a gunner with you." The President quickly said. "Do you have one?"
"Yup!" she said. Lara was the perfect gunner-girl. One of the best she had saw.
"Okay, that is settled then. We are leaving in 3 days."
Then Eva remembered something. "Sir?" she asked softly. The President looked up. "hm?" Eva continued doubtful. ".. Who are racing to? From which planet, I mean?"
The President thought. "I donno. Much I think. Byrus, Fihl, Crogg Imperium, Nourasia." The last one made Eva shiver. Don Wei looked at her, and she continued asking quickly. "And what is there to win?" Eva asked curious.
"3 things where we can choose of. I don't really know what, but you get their support anyway if you win."
Eva sighed. What was so important of support. Especially support of a planet who wants to kill her. It was like the President could read her thoughts. "Support is very important. The Croggs haven't give up."
Eva nodded. She understood.
Don Wei sighed. "Are you sure you want to go and race there?" He looked at her. "I mean, they all want to kill you there."
"That's why I put another name with me." Eva replied simply.
"Which then?" Don Wei asked her doubtful.
"Well, what do you think of Molly?" she said grinning. Don smiled to at the name she had used back on Alwas and Oban. They were with the hangar again. Eva got her keys. "You say it to Koji and Stan?" Don nodded. "Okay, I go tell to Lara." With that words Eva left. Don Wei grabbed the papers and started to fill it in. Names, jobs, etc.
Name Pilot: Molly, 19 years
Name/Names Mechanic: Koji and Stan, 27 and 29 years
Name manager: Don Wei, 48 years.
Name gunner: Lara, 21 years.
Don Wei sighed. He was already 48 years, and his grey hairs came out very clearly.
"Lara!" Eva yelled to Lara, she obviously didn't heard her. "LARAAA!!!!" She yelled even louder. Lara looked up of her papers. "Hmm?" she said dreamy.
Eva grinned. If Lara was on her work, she could forget the world that is surrounding her completely.
"Hey, busy with work? It's Saturday!"
"So? You work in weekends to."
Ai, there she got Eva. Eva sighed. "I wanted to ask something. You love to be a gunner, don't ya?"
Lara nodded.
"Okay, now, we got a race soon-.." before she could make her sentence done, Lara smiled big.
"YES! OF COURSE!" she yelled happily as she jumped up.
Eva fell of her chair by the sudden reaction, and Lara helped her to her feet again.
Lara walked with Eva in the living room. She was still talking about the race. It made Eva nervous, but she knew Lara was very enthusiastically sometimes, so she only smiled or nodded.
They sat down on the couch. Lara needed to check her mail, so she disappeared behind Eva's laptop.
Meanwhile, Eva putted the radio on. Happily she sang with the music. Lara looked at her.
"A shame that you don't do anything with your voice." She said softly.
Eva heard, however she knew that that wasn't Lara's meaning. Lara looked up again. "What song is this again?" Eva doubted. "Uhm.. Barlow Girl – Average Girl I think.." (I use that cause the song is totally awesome!!) Lara nodded.
Eva disappeared for a while, and came back after a few minutes. "Hey, you stay for diner?"
Lara stood quiet for a while. "Uhm.. Depends what ya are eating.."
"We'll grab a restaurant!"
"Sure!"
(3days later)
Molly (I'm using that name now, savvy?) gasped when she saw the planet. It didn't changed allot. But she did saw that the Mimieren were in charge here. Sadly she saw the guards walking throw the area. Once she was a princess here. But she better can not say anything. She knew that they are still looking at her, they all know she is not dead.
She didn't felt comfortable here. She sighed. Lara stood next to her. "Eva, what are ya looking at?" Molly shivered. "Here, I'm Molly. Never call me Eva."
Lara raised her eyebrows. "Ok, but why?"
"I'll explain later."
Lara nodded. If Eva had a secret she would tell sooner or later. She just didn't had to push for it.
"Well, and now?" Lara said playfully.
Molly sighed, as she dropped herself on her bed. Unbelievable she was on Gazalië. Her planet. She didn't felt anything for unpacking her bags.
Outside, it was getting dark. Molly stood up, and walked out of her room.
Koji and Stan were checking the Starlight before getting to bed. "Hey guys!" Stan and Koji didn't looked up, but both made a sound that probably meant; hi.
"Is dad already a sleep?" she asked.
Koji worked further, Stan looked at her. "No, he's to a conversation with the other racers and the Mimieren."
Molly got worried. She didn't liked the fact that her father was gone alone to the Mimieren. "And Lara?"
"She is probably discovering the area."
"Ok." Molly simply said as she jumped of the stairs and ran towards the castle, where her father was.
She knocked on the door. The shutter opened, and it revealed 2 eyes. "Who's it?"
"Molly, pilot for Earth." Molly said doubtful.
The shutter closed, and the door opened. "Come in." he said. Molly passed the guard quick. She didn't liked this place.. not anymore. Once this was her home. Here she ran through the halls happily.
"You need guidance to the gathering?"
Molly nodded slowly. A few painful flashes of this place came in her head. She couldn't be here. Not for long. Getting her dad, and go away.
After a few halls they reached a door. The guard knocked on it.
"Who's it?" Molly heard a loud voice saying.
"Molly, reporting for Earth." The guard responded.
"Come in."
Molly entered slowly and careful, and saw full of disgust that Uhl and Joseph were now staring at her.
In a second full of fear Molly thought they would recognize her. But they didn't. "Welcome Molly. Please sit down to."
However Uhl watched at Molly for a few seconds longer, he didn't seemed to know her. Molly then knew how much she had changed. However she still had the famous star and stripe, she really changed allot. She only didn't knew why Uhl didn't recognized her. He saw her with her star and stripes 2 years ago. And she had the same fake name. He should be the one who recognize her. Maybe he did..
But Molly didn't thought of that, she was far to relieved that they didn't knew her.
She sat down next to her dad. He smiled to her. Like he was saying that nothing happened.
Don Wei watched at how Molly was jumping around. He smiled. His adult daughter, but she still acted like a child.
"They didn't even knew me! I was sooo scared!" Molly said happily. "But to see the palace again.. it was just horrible.." she continued more sad. Don putted a hand on her shoulder. Molly smiled again. "But you can be sure they wont survive long! I mean, that Uhl is a traitor, and Joseph to! And I hate traitors!" she said on a playfully way. Don Wei grinned. "Not when I am around, please."
"Okay, I'll just bring Lara with me!"
"I hear my name?" Lara suddenly said. They already were by their pit, and Lara appeared from out of the Starlight's gunner-corner.
"Yes, that's correct!" Don said to her. "Well, I'm leaving you 2 alone for my bed. You both go sleep soon to. Sweet dreams."
"Nighty night." Molly said on her most childish way to make Don grin.
Lara smiled. "You 2 really have a great bond. I hardly can believe what happened."
"Cause what happened made us so to each other. Else we would be just a arguing teenager and father." Molly replied smiling.
"Well, I'm also going to bed." Lara said after a few minutes. "Good night!" and she disappeared in her room.
Molly didn't felt anything for sleeping. The night was still young! They didn't had a race tomorrow, she heard on the gathering.
Unfortunately she didn't had the courage to ask which planets were racing to, and she felt sorry for that. A few steps away from the pit, there stood a few single trees. Molly sat down against one. She breathed deeply. She was back again. God, she wanted to stay here. She wanted that Senay was back. That she was 6 again..
No, I will not cry! Molly said to herself as she felt her tears coming up again. She sighed deeply. I wonder if Prince Aikka is here to.. she felt her heart burning, she still loved him. But after 1 year of contacting she never heard anything from him, and she thought that he had given up on her. Whatever, his choice. But she did wanted to see him. If he didn't loved her anymore, she had to hear it from him, straight in her face.
But, he also could have been very busy. Or worse, dead. No, she cant think of that! How did that thought even got in her mind?! P-lease.
Molly stood up when she felt sleepy. Tomorrow she will look around in the city. But now, she will sleep.
"MORNING SUNSHINE!"
Molly woke up growling. With sleepy, angry eyes she watched at Lara who was grinning.
"Since when are you a morning-person?!" Molly roared softly to her.
"Since I am on a planet I do not know! We're going to the city!" She pulled her out of her bed and threw her some clothes. "I'll expect you downstairs in 10 minutes, or I'll come and drag you out!"
With that Molly saw the single flashback of how Rick dragged her out of her room back on Alwas for training. She smiled.
Quickly she got dressed and walked downstairs.
"Do you always have to bring those? I'm sure people get scared of it!" Lara said while she pointed on Molly's swords. They were destroyed with Canaletto, but Molly knew that Jordan made them again. He knew that she was very attached to it.
"Yes, you never know which kinda creep jumps on ya." Molly said on a spooky tone.
"I'm getting a wrong mental picture now." Lara said rolling her eyes. Molly nodded smiling. "Of course."
"COME!" she grabbed Molly's hand and dragged her outside. Molly really had to hold herself from bursting out in laugher.
Lara had gave up in the city, as she returned to the pit. The city used to be allot of fun, but Molly knew that the Mimieren bored everything. She continued walking. Maybe there was someone she knew! She thought deeply, graving in every memory. Without knowing she walked into a weapon-store. She knew she loved to come here, cause of the nice swords. All weapons here were most expensive, most people couldn't come here, but back then she was the Princess, and she could get the things for free if she wanted. She watched at a few swords. It had incredible marks on it. Her eyes turned to the wall above the show window. With sad eyes she looked at it. Everyone who had bought a weapon here, and died or disappeared without it, was written here. And their swords beneath it.
Senay, king of Gazalië
A beautiful golden sword was under it. Molly felt some eyes on her.
"Excuse me.. but may I see your swords?" an old man of the store asked. Molly turned to the old man with raised eyebrows. "Hmm? Of course.." she said carefully, as she walked to him, and lied one of her swords down on the counter. The man seemed to find it quit interesting, as he took a good look. "The shining twins.." he whispered soft enough for Molly not to hear. He knew those swords.
"Ahum, miss?" Molly looked up. "yes?"
"Would you like to come with me for a sec? Alone?" he asked her gently.
Molly nodded, she knew this man. He was old and weak, nothing to fear for.
She grabbed her sword again and walked with him. Orus closed the door. Silence.
"I can believe it's you, Princess."
Molly smiled at hearing that sentence. "How'd ya know?" she asked.
"I have made the Shining Twins for the Princess who loved stars. And I recognized your style of standing." He said grinning.
Molly replaced herself. She always stood on a way of; Whatsup?
"I'm glad that you recognized me. You.. you're not going to tell.. right?" she asked him hopefully.
"Of course not, your highness. I already was hoping that you would return soon! Are you making any plans?" he asked her softly.
Molly shook her head. "I'm only here for the race. I do not stand any chance. I'm sorry Orus.."
He looked at his feet. It already was to good to be true. "It's all right. Well, do I have to do something at your swords? Make them sharper? And do you have arrows?" He would do anything to help the Princess.
Molly laughed. "I am indeed out of arrows, and my swords are getting blunt. Only if you want."
"Of course!"
Molly returned back to her pit with the newest gadget. It wasn't even available on Earth yet, they got it from Fihl. It could copy bows, so as long as you got one arrow, you're fine. Also her swords were so sharp that they could cut your hand of with a single push. She needed to be careful again. She grinned at the thing that Orus said. The people here hoped for her to come back! They wanted her as Princess, or better, Queen! She could fight, if she could make an army with allies and the people here, but she had no idea who will stand out for themselves around here. If they wont, she would get caught immediately. If they do, they stand a pretty good chance. But she couldn't think of it to be allies with Gazalië, with the Mimieren. They got their own planet, why do they want this one! It's not like Gazalië could help it that Mimierua was so.. dark. Ugly. Sad. Infertile.
In the pit it was silent. She was all alone! Where were those guys.. she found a note.
Eva, we are to the palace for a diner with us all. If it's not to late you can join us. This letter was been written on 18:00 in Earth time.
Don.
Molly looked for her watch. 18:10. She could make it!
Again Molly knocked on the same door. The shutter opened and closed again, as the door opened. "You like to run late, don't you?" The guard said in a mix of grumpy and playfully.
Molly nodded to that, and he showed her the way once again. Standing with the door, she suddenly saw Don walking to her. "Hey, I see you made it!" he said happy to her. Molly nodded, as they entered the room. She widened her eyes. The dining room was just as beautiful as she last saw it before the attack. It had white walls, golden drawings on the sealing and walls, white flagstones, and white-silver-golden pillars. All in one, one of the most beautiful rooms ever. The tables were decorated with food very nice, it was just like if the Avatar could show up every moment. But, Molly knew that it even looked this way if the enemy came.
She felt a few eyes on her, who just watched for a second and then turned to others again. She didn't felt a pair of eyes who kept watching at her.
Molly walked with Don to their table. Lara smiled at her. "I ordered for you." She said softly. Molly smiled.
Canaan watched at his pupil. "You seem quit interested in something, what's it?"
Aikka didn't said anything. He just kept watching at the red-black haired girl. He couldn't believe it. She was here to! He needed to go to her! But, then he might risk the fact that she doesn't recognize him.. or worse.. doesn't love him anymore. But he wants to talk with her, no matter what. Not now, unfortunately. He could go visit her sometimes. Then he remembered something. This was her planet! I thought this was the last place for her to go to.. he thought confused. And she wasn't even recognized, else she would have been captured or killed.
Molly dropped herself on the bed, and pulled the sheets up till her chin. God, she was sleepy. She didn't slept to well the 2 nights she spend here. All nightmares of this planet. Tomorrow they would have a race, and now she needed to sleep good! No nightmares aloud! She kept thinking that till she fell asleep.
Soft dreams entered her head.
"SENAY! I want to go with you! Plllleeeaaaseee!"
Senay almost couldn't refused it to the 9 year old girl, who was watching at him with big please-eyes. He kneeled down and smiled.
"I would love to Little Star, but I cant! I promise, when you are older!"
"Yeah right, still 7 years by the law.. please take me with you.." she now said more sad.
Senay couldn't refuse it. "Ok, but be nice then." Eva now smiled bigly. She always got what she want if she really wanted it if Senay. But he didn't mind.
Molly woke up slowly. She didn't really had nightmares, but sweet dreams was also not the case. She stood up slowly, she knew that if you stood up to quickly after a bad night, you would get dizzy. She got her clothes and dressed herself, after that she walked downstairs. Lara was already awaken, she sat on the table, eating a roll.
She looked up. "Want one to?" she said while pointing on her food. Molly nodded, and caught the roll that was throwing towards her. She took a mouthful.
She sighed. The race was close, and the Starlight was damaged a little bit. They had to go against Hartlam, she never raced to them, but she did saw Aikka racing against it once on Alwas. It was a big and spiky ship.
She stood up. Maybe she can go shop with Lara.. slowly she walked into the pit. "Koji, where is Lara?"
"I think she is in her room." He replied.
Molly ran upstairs, and walked in without knocking. "Hi!" she greeted happily.
Lara looked up. "Hey! Whatsup?"
"Hm.. not much. What'cha doing?" Molly asked as she lean over Lara's shoulder.
Lara grinned. "I was writing something, but it doesn't matter." Molly shrugged, and she dropped herself on one of the chair's. "You wanna go in the city?"
"Hmm.. maybe tomorrow. I'm a bit sleepy." Lara said while blinking her eyes. "You're always sleepy.." Molly responded grinning. Lara glared at her playfully. "Is something wrong?" Lara suddenly asked.
"No, why?"
"Your eyes.." She said while inspecting Molly.
Molly walked outside, and sat down against one of the trees that were surrounding some pits. There wasn't really a forest here, but she could go to one. She knew it would be.. 30 minutes walking from the palace. Since she came her, her eyes never laughed the way they used to do. Sparkling eyes, was her nickname sometimes back on earth, cause her eyes always stood happy.
"May I inquire why you are so sad?" A gentle voice suddenly said. In a reflex Molly stood up and reached for her sword, but she replaced herself when she saw who it was.
"Aikka.." She softly said. She just stared at him. Like he was something weird. Both didn't said anything. Both stared at their feet. Both still loved each other.
"You.. you look good.." Aikka said softly. Molly shrugged. "You to."
Silence again. Aikka stepped forwards.
"I would love to talk sometimes, Eva." He softly said, trying to get eye-contact.
"Molly." Molly suddenly said.
"Huh?"
"Here it's Molly again. For safety." Molly explained.
"I see. Well, what do you think, Molly?" He asked her.
"I would like to catch up sometimes. How about tomorrow?" Molly said while she looked him in the eyes.
"Great. I'll see you tomorrow then. Here?"
"Fine." Molly said. Aikka left with a single nod and smile.
Aikka didn't really liked their first meeting. They were so.. detached to each other.
She probably doesn't love him anymore. She probably has a boyfriend or worse, a husband.
Lara grinned. "Who was that cutie?" she asked loudly.
Molly blushed. "He was just.. someone.." She said. But she noticed she was grinning to. "More details please!" Lara demanded. "Later." Molly responded. Lara grabbed Molly's hand, and dragged her to Molly's room.
"Come, tell." She said when they were there, and when she closed the door. Molly laughed. It didn't matter how may times Molly would say no about this, she always would kept asking.
"Okay, I will tell, but then you must not interrupt me!"
Lara nodded, smiling big.
"Wow!" Lara said. "I mean, WOW!" She repeated. "So when I was working the shit out of me on Earth, you just had your own FAIRY-TALE?!" It sounded that she was hyper about it, but also angry. Molly grinned. "Yup!"
Lara growled, but Molly knew she didn't meant mean.
"But we cant go shopping tomorrow." Molly said. Lara grinned. "Heh, okay." She laughed, and Molly blushed again.
Lara grinned. She was a little bit jealous on her friend. Everyone was dreaming of a guy on the white horse, but she did actually got it to!
But even after this story she couldn't figure out something..
(The next morning)
Molly smiled as she saw the clean air, that surrounded the palace in all his glory. No matter how many people wanted to kill her, she so did liked it here. She became sad again. Yet, if she only said on thing about her true past, she would be murdered in the same second.
"Now you are sad again!" An amused voice behind her said. Molly turned around, to discover Prince Aikka, who was watching at her with worry, and happiness. She smiled at him. "How come?" Aikka asked.
"You know it. I think that if I knew all this before, I would rather stood on Earth.."
Aikka walked to her. "Now, we don't want that. At least you got me back! Super-Prince!" he said to cheer her up.
Molly grinned. Though she was sad, Aikka's words were very.. childish..
They started to walk to nowhere.
"Tell me, what had kept you busy?" Aikka asked rather uncomfortable by the fact that they still didn't showed anything more then knowledge about each other.
"Racing, and all that kinda mechanic stuff. Uhm.. making my school done, working.." She sighed. "And waiting. For nothing eventually."
Aikka noticed the anger in the last sentence. He didn't knew what to say. Since 2 years he broke contact with her. The explanation was a bit.. hard to explain, to say it nice. Molly stood quiet. Aikka took a quick look on her. She hasn't changed a bit, however she was taller now, and her hair had grown, but it was still in the famous red-black colors, but the style was different. It was not loose anymore, but it wasn't quit tied up even. (how can I describe it? xl) Though the style seemed hard for him to make or do, he did discovered how it fits together. A part was tied up, and a part was loose. He smiled. He style of clothing has also changed. No more mechanic suit. He only saw her once with this clothes, back on Alwas. It was a simple cloth wrapped around her hips, and a T-shirt that was knot in that way that it showed her abdomen. Further she wore a necklace, a moon with a M on it, she still wore his ring, to his surprises, and the same rings in her ear as she had on Alwas and Oban. Her eyes, still crimson, were now a bit lighter, what confused him. But all in one she was still the most beautiful woman he had ever saw. Before Molly could even notice Aikka was staring at her, he turned his head away.
"I see." He said softly.
"And you?" Molly asked softly.
"Well, we've managed to get the Croggs away, however our fight hasn't stopped yet, unfortunately. And I've been busy with allot of my duties."
"Like?" She couldn't help herself, she was waaay to curious.
"Like the war as I said, making myself ready for the throne, and.." he doubted. "Marriage.."
"You're married?" Though it sounded not so very shocked, Molly was very very shocked. "Good for you!" She managed to continue.
"No, I did not." He said after smiling at her.
Molly made a funny sound, like she was saying; Huh? On a confused and happy tone.
"After the engagement with Sabiana, it seemed to go well." He sighed. "Till my sister Megara (I couldn't find something else then the name of my one-shot..xl) found her in bed with one of the guards."
Molly froze, but Aikka continued without any sorrow.
"Though I wasn't very happy but also not very sad. Most of the shock hit Megara herself, cause she liked Sabiana much, and now she hates her. Since then I am a free man again." he said the last sentence grinning.
Molly blinked her eyes. "I'm sorry."
"Don't be. She was not the woman were I wanted to spend my life with. I did it for my kingdom."
Again Molly couldn't help herself but being curious.
"Who's that woman then?" she asked shyly, obvious blushing. How dare she to ask such a question to a Prince? "Ai, I'm sorry." She quickly said. "That was rude."
"Don't be sorry. It wasn't rude at all. As my best friend you may ask that!" Though he loved the smile that Molly gave him with the words 'best friend', he did saw some sadness in her eyes. His eyes were probably the same. He didn't saw her as a best friend. Well, he did, but not only as a best friend. Much more. But why is he afraid to show any sign of love? They separated as a couple for god sake!
Molly thought the same way.
She looked quickly at Aikka, to discover what changed. He was almost the same, but just as she was, he was taller and his hair had grown. Also he had different clothes, and he was a bit more muscled. But he still was the cutest guy she ever saw.
"Why exactly did you stopped contacting me?" She suddenly asked. She clasped a hand before her mouth, with widen eyes. Why the facking hell did she said that?!
Aikka now stopped with walking, so Molly almost bumped into him.
"I.. since.." He took a deep breathe, to find the right words. Though his face was turned to Molly, he couldn't look at her eyes.
Molly felt a raindrop on her hand, but she didn't moved. How shocked she may have been from her own question, she wanted an answer.
"Since the engagement I stopped. That was mostly because the will of my fiancée and parents. Sabiana knew about you, and my parents already knew about you since Oban. They wanted me to stop contact you, cause they all knew that.." he stopped again, and turned his head to nowhere more. "That I still love you." He said softly. Molly stood quiet. She wanted to say to Aikka that it doesn't matter, she wanted to yell to him that she loved him to, hug him and never let him go.
But she let him walk away. While she still stood there, he slowly disappeared of her sight. Tears dropped down her face. She hated herself. Once she was the girl who dared everything, and now she cant even talk to Aikka normal. Ridiculous! Tomorrow she would go to him, and say everything.
Lara saw Molly walking in. "Whatsup?" She said softly as she saw Molly's look.
"Mm.." Molly responded.
Lara got on her feet. She walked to Molly. "Hiya.. what's going on?" she asked curious.
Molly grinned. "I tripped on my way here, I feel a little bit embarrassed." She lied.
Lara laughed. Typically her friend.
"Hm. I'm going to bed." Molly said slowly.
"Shouldn't you eat?"
"Not hungry." She walked upstairs and opened her door, and disappeared of the mechanics and gunner's sight.
Meanwhile, Aikka skipped diner too to go upstairs and sleep. He was way too tired. It didn't took long before he fell asleep.
Aikka walked through some halls, he barely recognized. It were the halls of the palace of Gazalië.
He didn't liked it here. However the halls were decorated, there was a sad feeling here. He wanted to get out of here.
But that thought changed in the same second. A young woman stood before him. She smiled with her eyes, but her mouth moved to a name.
"Aikka.." The woman softly said. Aikka couldn't help but stare. There she was. His beloved. Like nothing happened. Like she still was the princess.
He wanted to walk towards her, but every time he came closer, she walked backwards more.
He needed to hold her. To kiss her. He sped up his walk, and before she could run more backwards, he had grabbed her wrist. She turned to him, and smiled. Her smile was playfully, but his temperature raised itself. Now she closed her eyes more, like she was enjoying his burning heart.
"Are you scared?" She asked on a rather fox-tone.
He didn't shook his head, he also didn't nodded. He just watched at her. Didn't looked at her body, but looked at her beautiful eyes.
They were not crimson.
They were silver.
He kept looking at it, and the pair of eyes kept looking at him. She freed herself from his grasp, and disappeared.
Aikka looked around. He started to run again. He must find her!
He tried to stop himself, but it was to late. But, he didn't slammed into the wall, no, he walked right through it.
The palace was not decorated anymore. There was an angry mood now. He knew exactly what this al was. He had learned it when he was 4. He must find her before its to late!
Then he saw her again. This time she wore a beautiful white dress, she was no longer just in her bra and panties. But the whiteness of her dress soon turned into black, as someone showed himself behind his princess.
Those horrible eyes.. Silver turned black. She was glaring at him. Joseph embraced her hand with his. She now smiled, and tightened the grasp of Joseph.
"I hate you.." she softly said as Aikka felt his heart break.
Joseph grinned evil as he turned her more to him. Before the most horrified thing ever, he whispered something.
"To late Princey.."
The space between the mouths closed.. This couldn't happen. He had taken over her. Lies became true.
On the exact same moment Aikka woke up with a loud scream, which had the name;
"Molly!"
I JUST HAD TO LEAVE IT HERE! I'M SO SORRY!
LOL.
I still have more great ideas, so I'll start on the next one this same day. Wieha!
Hmm.. I was reading some stories of OSR, and I swear, with some of them I just couldn't get my smile of my face. That was just scary.
..xD
Well, I'm writing more, and I try to make the next chapter done before my vacation.
BTW: Chapter wasn't so long, I know, just 13 pages,
(Actually it was quit long. But not for me.)
And I will make the next chapter longer. I think. I hope.
