Disclaimer: No Duh

A/N: Thank you Raekitty and Macky for your wonderful reviews. They were most welcome.

I was freaked; there was no denying that. That high pitched laugh, the one from my dreams, my worst nightmares, Dilandau's laugh, was the worst part about this whole situation. There was no one here for me to cling to, no daddy here for me to hide behind, no one here to protect me except for these strangers.

The men drew their swords. They all looked ready to attack at the slightest sign of movement. "Geef ons het meisje van de Mystic Maan en wij zullen u lastig alleen ongedierte verlaten (Give us the girl from the Mystic Moon and we'll leave you annoying pests alone.)" came Dilandau's voice.

"Nooit, (Never,)" hissed Van. It all happened so fast. The robots attacked shooting ribbons as sharps as knives out of their hands. Everyone scattered, the guys charged forward, the girls went back towards the trees. I was just kind of left standing where I was till I heard the first clash of metal on metal. Then I bolted toward the trees refusing to look back.

I ran as fast as I could, right by the nearest robot. My lungs and throat burned from the chill of the night air. My legs were already starting to get tired even though I had only taken a few steps.

When I reached the cover of the trees I didn't stop. Hardly any light came through the leaves, making it hard for me to see. I tripped and stumbled over tree roots and branches. More than once I fell flat on my face.

It didn't take me too long to come to a river. I stood there doubled over for a few minutes trying to catch my breath. The cold water raged against the rocks, splashing onto my face. The water looked so inviting, all cool and crystal clear except for some white foam here and there. It had been weeks, no months since I had taken a decent shower, and I probably reeked.

There was an odd rushing noise from the sky. I looked up to see seven of those robots flying away. A wave of relief swept over me. They were leaving. I starred back down at the river watching the water's surface. Mental note,I thought, first thing to do when you get home, take a shower then brush my teeth. No, wait reverse that, teeth then shower.

I tore my gaze away from the river and doubled back into the trees. There would be other chances for me to go jump in a river. Why not try to find one that didn't look so hazardous and with few less rocks.

Picking some random direction to go, I started walking. That probably wasn't the smartest idea. It didn't take me very long to become completely lost. One of the perks of being half blonde, no since of direction. The only problem with that was the blonde didn't show in my hair; so no help what so ever when it came to getting guys.

I just walked around, taking in the forest. It was really boring. But I didn't have anywhere to go. There was no home for me to go back to here, no family, nothing. There was a small brake in the tree tops, and looked back up into the sky as if expecting it to give me advice. There sitting in the sky right over my head was a big round blue disk. It looked so much like Earth. In fact, as I starred at it longer, memorized by its colors, I could have sworn I saw a China.

There was a great ripping sound from behind me. I turned to see one of those giant robots striding toward me pulling trees out of the ground at it came, Dilandau's insane laugh erupting from it. I wondered if he had ever considered mental help. But then again, on the other hand, I was pretty sure the shrink would need mental help too after listening to him talk.

I took a few hesitant steps back, and ever so cunningly tripped on a fallen tree branch. My face grew panic stricken, as the Dilandau grew closer. My brain screamed move, but my body refused to. I was too scared. You always wonder why when you hear about people about to die, why they never run, or move out of the way. Well the answer is that they're too damn scared! That's why, their bodies just won't respond to their brains.

"Dilandau," came a sharp voice. I turned my head to see Allen standing there in all his girlish blonde hair, sword out in hand. "Wij gebeëindigde arn't! (We aren't finished!)"

The very front of the robot's face where it's mouth should have been slid back to reveal Dilandau's face. "Allen Schezar," his voice was lanced with loathing. He turned the robot to face him. "Ik veronderstel er tijd is om u eerst te behandelen. (I suppose there's time to take care of you first.)"

Dilandau was totally focused on Allen now. He was totally focused on killing him. That look in his eyes, the look of blood told me that much.

I felt someone's hand slip over my mouth and a voice whispered in my ear something I didn't understand. I was being forced back towards the still standing trees. Something in the back of my mind said struggle don't be pushed around. I listened to it making it as hard as I could to be forced back. Until I knew whose hand it was, I wasn't planning on going anywhere.

But then again when you are faced with two options, mysterious hand that could belong to someone who is trying to help you, or help Dilandau, it's kind of hard to decide what to do. But if I stayed I would certainly end up back in the flying ship and I didn't want to go back there. Not one bit.

Allen jumped out of the way of another of Dilandau's attacks, a heavy swing with a sword that had seemed to come from nowhere. He charged at him and his sword hit the robot's leg. It bounced off with a clang. I didn't know what he hoped to accomplish. One small sword verses big robot. I wonder who would win?

Dilandau turned the giant robot's head slightly as to make sure I was still there. What he saw obviously didn't please him. He took a step forward and then another toward me. I backed up, still on the ground. He raised his left hand; those ribbon things appearing out of holes in the very end of it, reading for attacking.

I screamed throwing my hands in front of my head and screwing my eyes shut as the ribbons shot out of the robot's hand. In a way it was a fitting end, killed just like I should have been in my nightmare from last night.

I felt my body cramp up. Not just in one little spot, but the whole thing. Every single muscle in my body hurt. Why did my death have to be more painful than it was all ready was going to be?

A scraping sound filled my ears as pain lanced through my body, the muscle crapping going away as quickly as it had started. There was a cry of pain from Dilandau and I heard the robot take off.

Opening my eyes I saw this pink sparkling see through dome around me. It looked like something straight out of some fairy movie. I reached my hand out to touch it. It felt like there was nothing there, just plain old air. But I could see it; I could see it there, what ever it was. As I moved my hand back, the dome just seemed to fade away till it was gone.

"Het verbazen, (Amazing,)" came a voice from behind me that I recognized as Van's, as the hand that was still over my mouth moved away. His voice sounded so distant, like it was a million miles away, and I was so tired. My eyelids had become impossible heavy in a matter of seconds. I wasn't about to fight with them though. They closed so easily, and it wasn't with out welcome, as sleep engulfed me.

A/N: Ok it was a cheap ending. I know. I wish this chapter had come out better. But I didn't have a defiant plan. Not like the next chapter, kinda. KK, here's your guys' question that I need you to answer. All who want fluff raise your hands, and tell me who you want it to be between. All who don't want fluff don't raise your hands, and still tell me. I mean there will be some fluff, but it's probably not what you are thinking of. Scratch that, I know it's not what you're thinking of. But I need to know if you guys want more fluff.
