-=-=-=-Prologue-=-=-=-
The Solar Eclipse arrived, and Colbert-sensei said that if Saito flies up to the eclipse he will return to his real world. Yeah, nobody is happy, even Saito especially Louise. Saito is having second thoughts about returning to Japan but he's completely decided to go back. Louise will never let that predicament happen. She decided to go after Saito in his WW2 Japanese Plane with Tabitha and Kirche on Sylpheed. Louise caught up to Saito but because of Wales's interference they were in both grave dangers. Wales was defeated but Saito accidentally pushed the controls towards the Solar Eclipse transporting only Him back to modern civilization and humanity. Louise fell into the ground.
"SAITOOOO!" She shouted but Saito never responded.
Louise was falling umpteen meters in the sky. Sylpheed had to time the fall because it can't go further than 10,000m from the sky. Louise was saved and she was in great shock. Eyes open, won't blink, tears escaping her eyes. She won't believe her familiar-
No, her lover. Have left her.
Louise cried on Kirche's lap and Kirche even though rivals did her best to comfort the poor girl mage. She felt that Louise was in deep pain. They both loved each other than one was gone. It was like the brain. The left side was alive and right side was dead. Louise is crying and looked at Kirche.
"This is a dream right?!" Louise said to Kirche in a crying tone.
Kirche didn't respond.
"Answer me Kirche!" Louise cried again on her lap.
"... I wish it was Louise. I wish it was." She answered to Louise and shed a tear as she finished.
The gang went home. Louise can't sleep. She was crying on her bed sheet, crying to the memories with Saito. She knows that trading her nobility, no trading everything she has isn't going to bring Saito back. She didn't even get the chance to kiss him again. She missed that passionate kisses that she faked the reasons leading to just one. They love each other and they deny it, but this game of denials has come to an end.
And Saito was only Louise's the one who got away.
She imagined what if she admitted she really loved Saito. She asked many questions. Lots of what if's, what if I's, what could've happened, yeah but her chances was gone. She could've made more memories but no, she didn't. They played hide-and-seek with their feelings and the game ended. No one won. She knew that if she summoned again a familiar she might have a chance to summon Saito again but no one has ever re-summoned an old familiar. It's a one in a million, billion, trillion, quadrillion, or even a zillion chance especially that Saito is in a different dimension, universe, and timeline.
She had to sleep it off, crying, in agony, dreaming that Saito was still there. She really can't forget the guy who made her heart beat once, who tamed her lion-like personality and endured the pain that she gave even she acts like a little jealous girl. The night passed and now we see a Delusional Louise.
Louise woke up in the morning happy to see Saito. She forgot that Saito is gone. She looked down in the hay bale where Saito usually sleeps. She saw it and Saito was gone, at first she wondered where Saito is, but she concluded.
"Nah..., maybe had a Morning Walk." She said in denial.
She got prepared and put her usual mage uniform. She got out of her room and walked the hallway happily. Yes, she denied that Saito was gone. She became very delusional, that she denies and proves to herself that Saito was gone, on a morning walk, to Queen Henrietta, etc. She gave thousands of reasons to her delusions and everyone was worried.
One day, Kirche had enough of Louise's denial. She was angry and hurt at her. Seeing that one cheerful, violent but cute teenage girl mage has been transformed to nothing but a delusional freak. She went to Louise's room and seen her happy and writing on her diary. She went to ask Louise something that will decide everything once and for all.
"Hey Louise, where's Saito." She said to Louise to know if these delusions have come too far.
"He's gone for a week now! Probably on a Mission with the Princess—" just as before Louise was done speaking, Kirche slapped her hard. Hoping that Louise will awaken in this trance she made for herself.
Louise started tearing up in front of Kirche.
"Yeah, call me delusional! Call me crazy! Call me a freak! Yes! I'm hoping for nothing! YES! I always knew that Saito will be gone forever! Yet, I try to be happy, I try to be strong! And believe that Saito will go back! Now if you have nothing good to say or here to insult my beliefs! Then LEAVE ME ALONE!" Louise cried at her bed sheet and her pillows. Kirche just added oil to the fire and so she decided to leave the poor Louise alone. Just as she went outside Louise's room and back to her room—
"Come back... Saito. Come back for everybody. Please." Kirche slid to the door releasing the tears she held back for Saito. She felt the same for Louise. They both miss Saito.
Back on Louise's room she's crying so hard she could fill a pool with her tears. She always kept a drawing of Saito with looking like a dog. She hugged it hard and cried on it. It's her last remembrance of her dog. No not a dog, stray dog, or perverted dog. He was her friend, her bestfriend, her acknowledger, her shoulder to cry on, and her crazy Japanese lover.
Just then, somebody knocked on her door.
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" She shouted.
Except the one who knocked was... Montmorency and she didn't follow. She went in by force and seen a crying Louise. She felt pity and Louise's agony was something to be afraid of. Louise and Saito were like a magnet, even how much you try to repel them they still try to attract. Montmorency went near to Louise and sat on her bed caressing Louise's pink hair for a while.
"Louise..." Montmorency lowly said to her.
"If you're here to call me delusional, a freak and a pushover then go! I don't need your opinion." Louise said.
"It's not that..." Montmorency said and just then somebody knocked.
"Louise?" A womanly voice called.
Montmorency saw a spitting image of Louise. It was Cattleya. She came to visit Louise at the right moment. Montmorency decided to leave the two alone and Cattleya sat on the bed. She caressed Louise's hair softly. While Louise believing it was still Montmorency...
"I told you to—"Louise looked at Cattleya and started to cry more and hugged her tightly and so as Cattleya did to Louise too.
"Chi-sama! He's gone!" Louise cried more at Cattleya's shoulder.
"I know it hurts Louise... but some things happen for a reason." Cattleya hugged Louise to comfort her.
Hello guys! I hope you enjoy! This is my first FoZ fanfic so bear with me. Okay to be honest, every chapter will be short and worst of all it's just a 5-chapter story (for a specific reason and you might probably know it right now.). Well it will be a great help if you review. Until the next update see you all!
Next Chapter/Process: Anger.
