Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hearing someone speaking to her, Takara turned slowly around and faced him..standing there and staring at him as if she'd seen him before.."No, but you've been in my dreams before...but I've never seen your face like I do now." she softly said to him.

"Yes." she whispered softly.."in my dreams, but every time your face was a blurr to me." smiling at him as he stood there staring at her.

Seeing his hand, she began to reach out as well but stopped when she noticed that he stopped as well.."Whats wrong?" she whispered.."you've never stopped before, you've always held me in your arms and told me you never would leave me."

Standing with her eyes closed, feeling the gentle touch across her cheek, she smiled and reached up to his hand and gently held it within hers. "Promise me like before that you'll never leave me, that you'll always be there for me."

Feeling his arms around her, she was about to return the embrace. When the atmosphere change and it began to get cold..looking into his eyes she knew what was happening..as many times before, he disappeared..."No..you promise to be with me..."

Crying out from her dream, Takara awoke shaking her head and looked around. Realizing she was still on the back of the horse riding along with Runa.."I must of fallen asleep...again my dreams haunt me..oh where are you my love?" she whispered to herself as a single tear rolled down her cheek.

I had listened to her sadly and turned the horse around, I had been off in my own world myself. We both needed to be with our loves. Kang and Kouchi were both waiting, back near the garden, is where I could just slightly sense them. I felt a pain in my stumache, Chan was right, the poisen isn't completly gone...but I dont know what to do....something with the bird. I hunched forward onto the horse as a rider would do if they were racing but i did it to hold to my stumache. "Kang please be there...please be alright", I said softly and raced back towards the garden.

Feeling her leaning against me, I smiled back at my best friend. "Because I feel Kang and Kouchi back near the garden...the park", I said softly as we re-entered the city and rode through the streets. "After we go to them, then we can decide what to do from there...", I said softly my eyes and mind distant.

I was trying to think what had Chan done with the bird, my body was quickly stiffening beneath me. Something with a bamboo shoot....he had sucked the blood, from the bird, into the shoot then into me....I was glad I had remembered though it did make me feel sick thinking of it. I closed my eyes, I didn't want to go through the nightmares again....
