Abyss of Time
By Youkiyra Solar alias Krystal Fox
I do not own anything of Rayearth and I don't get anything from writing these stories it is from my own pleasure that I do this. All characters of Esperanza, Alexandria and Elizabeth are MINE! These are based off of real people so you must ask permission before you take these characters.
Chapter 15 Plans
The three rune gods lead their ladies into the main hall where a throne sat.
Windom lead Esper over to Lexus who she eyed cautiously.
"I mean you no harm young lady." Lexus said in a rich southern voice. "I in fact wish to remove the glass fragments that are still in your hand. Please let me." He asked holding out his hand.
Elizabeth nodded at Esper, "He's alright."
Still cautious Esper let him look at her hand. He put his hand above hers and suddenly every little piece of glass within her hand was almost magnetically pulled out of her hand.
Esper's eyes got big and Alex exclaimed, "Cool!!"
Selece almost chuckled at her enthusiasm. Lexus then smiled, "All you need to do now is wrap it."
Esper nodded, "Now all of you," she said pointing at the three Rune gods, "You will explain who you are and why you just suddenly popped up…after the trouble in fact."
Lexus and Selece took seats on the steps of the throne and then Windom took a seat a little low then the other two and settled back onto his elbows on the steps.
"Let me explain," Lexus began, "Here we are called the "Rune gods" of Cephiro. We are the guardians of the heart of Cephiro. Those stones you now have is a little bit of our hearts….."
"Wait a min. the way you are making it sound is that you three are the heart of Cephiro." Esper said piecing some of it together .
"In a way, that is true." Selece said in a voice with a smooth Boston drawl.
"My ladies you must help us protect the heart of Cephiro for only we know truly where the real heart is…those stones are chips off of the heart. Keep them well." Lexus told them.
"We must now begin our plans to erradicate Eagle from Cephiro forever. Or he will keep coming back." Selece said softly.
"You mean we have to kill him." Esper said with no problem.
"Yes, you three will have to kill him and we shall aid you." Lexus said rising. "Come you must be fitted with your armor for this war."
"That's where we haven't looked yet!" Elizabeth said excitedly, "Presena is probably still here. Hurrah someone here lives."
Alexandria walked off towards the smithy while Esper was already running down the halls leaving Elizabeth with the three gods. She turned to them and smiled, "You don't talk much do you Windom?" She asked him.
He shook his head.
Lexus rose to follow the girls, "Just know Elizabeth when he does speak listen for his wisdom is far and great. Do not ignore him."
Windom seemed to give him a look of great imbarrasment and shook his head and walked down the halls after the other two girls.
Selece laughed, "To think that windom the great four winged phoenix is the most silent of the three of us."
They walked down the halls and found Esper and Alex putting on beautiful armor, it fit them perfectly. Presena stood there looking very pleased.
"You fit into it beautifully now you will look like Amazon princesses or queens!" She said excitedly. "Then you can beat that bleep of an Eagle so that we can have our Cephiro back."
When she saw all three of the rune gods she bowed, "Welcome again, gods, I see you are aiding our knights once again."
They all nodded letting the silence linger. They had a great battle coming and none of them wanted to loose anyone or actually kill. In war that is how is goes, death and loss, sorrow and sadness.
Eagle stood on his platform looking out over Cephiro, "You will be mine soon Cephiro, I will have your heart and I will rule you."
Behind him crumpled on the floor lay Lantis, his back mutilated with cuts and slashes. His breathing uneven and starting to gasp in air. The chains around his wrists and neck had blood seeping from underneath of them - the pain had to be immense.
Lantis looked at Eagle and prayed what he said would not happen. That's when he saw it, a small piece of metal perfect for breaking Eagle's lock system and letting him get away. He could warn the girls of the impending danger coming to claim them.
Soon - it would be soon.
Krystal Fox: Hey everyone finally I am updating. I just haven't gotten on for such a long time I had to reread what I wrote. Boy isn't that sad? Well, anyways this story probably won't last much longer maybe 4-5 chapters but still that isn't long. But a lot can happen in that time can't it? Hint….Hint…..
