Chapter 8: Dream
"What?!"...
She explained to them every detail. The war, the allies, objectives and so on. It was like they were in the past but only different. They felt so connected and familiar.
Meanwhile, after Mai had calmed down and talked with the others from downstairs she was advised to take a rest. So, she did. She went to her room and told them she'll just take a nap. She fell into a deep sleep and dreamed.
Mai's Dream..
Mai was standing somewhere, somewhat like a garden. She was dressed in a gown. It was a very wide garden with all the flowers and a fountain in the middle. Then she saw Nakazi also wearing a gown, only different, on the balcony of a palace. The place felt like heaven. It felt so celestial.
"Ne, Ayumu!!" called out Nakazi. Mai didn't know why but she waved back to her.
"Ayumu, Goro is worried about you." Nakazi yelled so that she may hear. She just smiled.
"I'm okay, Azumi!" to that Nakazi went inside. Takigawa went over to Mai as she was picking flowers for Kei. "Goro!" she exclaimed as she hugged him.
"Ayumu, you should better prepare his tea." he said with a wink.
"You mean Raiden is already finish?" she asked while running back to the palace. "HAI!" Takigawa yelled. She ran as fast as she could. She was already in the hallway when...
She slipped. Something or someone caught her. She didn't see first because her eyes were shut. And as she opened her eyes slowly, two arms were wrapped around her. Then, she saw Naru.
"R-Riaden..." she barely couldn't say it. He propped her up and still didn't let go.
"I told you to be careful, Ayumu." he said firmly but lovingly. She blushed. Their lips were to be sealed when someone ran over to them.
"Raiden-san-" it was John. He paused as he noticed the two of them blushing so red as Naru let go of her.
"Gomen...Did I just interupted something important?" John asked, smiling and holding his laughter. Naru blushed a little.
"No, it's okay, Kiyoshi." he replied. John just nodded.
"Princess Mitsuko is looking for you." he said immediately. Naru went over to a room. It was a large bed room. It was designed like royalty. Mai followed him. And she noticed that the whole palace was for royalty.
"Kimiko!" he exclaimed as the little girl hugged him. He actually hugged her back. It was Kei and she was wearing a gown like a princess. A mystical one.
"Raiden-ni, I don't like that!!" she pouted. A bird chirpped from the balcony. She raised her left hand and the bird flew to her and landed ontop of her index finger. It was the mysterious bird.
They continued their conversation. They were having fun time together. Om went in and set the snacks on Kei's tea table.
"Emi." Kei called weakly. Om turned and walked towards her. Naru gave her a noogie and left after saying goodbye. She gave Om an order and she went swiftly away. When nobody else was there. Her smile faded and her eyes were teary
Mai stood looking at the beautiful palace that faded slowly.
She woke up.
The place was flooding with light. It was warm shining light. "Must be morning already."
She quickly went downstairs and found Kei sitting on the couch looking at her.
"Have you had a nice dream, Mai-ne?" she asked. Mai felt a tingle on her back bone, it made her shiver.
"How'd you know?" she asked inaudible. Takigawa entered he living room and was surprised to see Mai so pale. Kei by then, disappeared into the other part of the house.
"Mai-chan...What's wrong?" he asked.
"Bou-san, it's nothing." she faked.
"It's not just nothing. Is it Naru?" he inquired. She shook her head.
"Speaking of him, he haven't ask me for any tea ever since. He would usually call me for one." she said trying to escape the dreaded question.
"Hmmm...Yeah, you're right. Naru haven't talked to you. huh?" he replied trying to think. "Oh snap, now that you've mention that, I just remembered, Nakazi is making him tea right now. Well a while ago, he asked Om and John for one, too."
"Well, what about later?" she asked really trying hard to talk to Naru. He raised an eyebrow as he figured what she wants to do.
"You want to talk to him? Go talk to him!" Takigawa cheered her as he gave her a push towards the stairs. She looked down. Now, that she thought of talking to Naru she can't do it. She's afraid. Afraid that he won't listen or talk to her. Of course, Why wouldn't he, right? The Fight or were those Harsh words that fired out of her mouth was the reason.
"Maybe later." she replied lowly. He spaced.
"Well, okay then. But it would be good if you two talk out soon." he said as she left to go upstairs apparently to her room again.
"Oh Bou-san?" she stopped when she was already ontop of the staircase. He looked up."Thanks!" Then she proceeded as he nodded.
She sat on her bed and just lie there. Sooner than she thought she fell asleep and drifted to dreamland.
Another Dream...
The palace's brilliant color of life shined even brighter. The aura of the place was shining very brightly. It's a very light feeling she felt. She noticed Kei playing in the garden with a girl and a boy. The other girl was a little taller than her, has red locksy-hair and green eyes. The boy was a little taller than Kei, too. He has black hair that looks kind of covering his right eye a little and it hasn't been combed. But he was attractive and cute, his eyes were dark brown registering black instead.
Gene appeared beside her.
"They're having fun aren't they?" he inquired.
"Looks like it." she replied still looking at the three. Gene moved towards the three very slowly. The triodoesn't notice them even if they stand really close or stand in front. It was a glimpse of the past.
"Tenshiki-chan!" called the boy to Kei. Kei glanced and smiled. The boy blushed. The other girl looked down and was kind of thinking.
"Shin!" the girl called getting his attention.
"Yes, Kohaku?" he asked.
"Look!Look! Isn't it nice?" she asked, showing him a flower.
"Yes, it is nice. It looks good on Mitsuko-chan..I mean Tenshiki-chan." he said to her while Kei was far away from them. Kohaku looked disappointed.
"Can I give it to her, Kohaku?" he asked.
"uh, sure..here" she said handing the flower and sounding cheerful as possible.
"Thanks! Oh and Kohaku?" he said looking at her. "That flower suites you well." he pointed to a yellow golden one.
Then he ran off to Kei. Kohaku just smiled.
The place changed aura immediately it was dark and Mai's eyes became blurry. The next seconds, another scene was revealed.
Kohaku was pale and she was talking to Kei. She sounded sick.
"Mitsuko, we are bestfriends,right?" she asked.
"Yeah, why do you ask?" Kei sounded confused.
"Then, you will tell me if something is going on between you and..Shin, right?" Kohaku's eyes turned dark.
"Of course." Kei beamed.
"Is there?" she asked again. Kei hesitated at first before talking again.
"No, but I like him. I mean not just like. The like like type." she answered blushing. " You won't tell him that, would you?"
"Of course not!." Kohaku answered immediately.
Another scene...Shin and Kohaku
"Why do you always call her Tenshiki?" Kohaku's voice were rough.
"Because she looks like an angel. Well, she IS an angel." he answered simply.
"Well, why can't you call me that?" she asked loosing her cool.
"Huh? What do you mean?" he asked confused. She just turned and trudge angrily away.
On the day she was about to die, after Mitsuko and Shin left her in her room.
"I swear, death by the 13th rise of the bloody moon, on the 13th riseth of the sun." she smiled evily. "Her soul will wander away until it will be burned into the fire pits of the dark lord, lost forever and away from him. For HE,Shin, will be the one to kill the fair maiden, the blessed child." she laughed to herself.
The gate from heaven opened before her.
"Am I going already?" she smiled. An angel appeared before her.
"No." the angel simply stated.
"You must understand that you cannot go to the place of light, to the promised land."
"Instead you will fall into the pits of the dark dragon, but alas, he will make you servant forever!"
"WHAT?! I WAS GOOD!" she argued.
"On your last breath you swear and cursed your friend for eternity, till the end of time. The blessed child. Now, she will die and her soul will wander forever."
"Are you satisfied now that your friend will suffer?" the angel asked calmly.
"But I will tell this to you,you will suffer ten times harder than your friend for you will fall slave to the darkest lord you admire."
"There is only one God! I tell you." the angel looked her in the eyes.
"Your spell is for eternity. Her soul will suffer from generation to generations but it will not be burned." the angel smiled.
"For the true God, will help her for eternity. He will hear her cries of help. Even the simpliest of cries, but that doesn't mean also that she cannot suffer. From generation to generations she will suffer the same events as her life now. Until the right time comes that the spell will be broken when the het savior will be ready and true."
"God will send someone as her savior. And they will live together when the spell is broken. You must understand that she is made for someone and for that someone ONLY. Her bird shall be her guide but not for very long. For the lord you admire will send forth his own bird." she calmly spoke.
Before the angel disappeared she said. "All the souls from this time will travel from bodies to bodies from generation to generations. Sometimes they'll just dwell for that time, sometimes for a lifetime then another. As long as the spell isn't broken this all will continue."
Then Kohaku's soul was thrown to the pit of which the angel spoke of. HELL!! Such a terrible sight. She saw the bodies burned and she saw a very large beast with large horns. Then, a terrible sound of poundings and screams she heard. Then the aura came. The dark one, very heavy.
Mai suddenly felt that she is choking, drowning, then burned. She could not understand. It turned very dark to the point that she can't see anything. She felt like she was shaken to wake up but couldn't open her eyes. She screamed but couldnt make a sound.
The next thing she knew Nakazi was holding her arm and everyone else huddled beside her bed, she was wet and her eyes were sore. Everyone except Kei and Naru who stood a little away from the crowd. She was very much surprised from all their concerned reactions.
"Mai-chan, are you alright?" Nakazi asked quite releaved. She couldn't speak. She was still shaking from fear.
"Mai-chan, what happened?" Takigawa's questioned. It struck her. It wasn't a terrible dream, it was a nice one AT FIRST. The heavy dark aura was enough to scare her, enough to remind her of the sight.
Sorry if it took so long. I kind of lost the idea of this chapter. Really sorry guys!
Okay...so what do you think will happen next? This will get very intense now...
But if you don't like this chapter, then I'm sorry. I'm such a crap!! Please forgive me and don't be too harsh. PLEASE!! -nervous-
