Relena silently groaned again, tossing
in her bed for what seemed to her the one-hundredth time. She wiped her
sweaty bangs from her eyebrows, her blood seeming as if it was on fire, even
though she felt quite cool externally. Giving up on even attempting any more
sleep, the just that day turned seventeen year-old sat up in bed, her eyes
catching the still form of the girl on the cot next to her.
"What's wrong Eena?"
The blonde turned to her friend.
"I'm surprised you're even talking to me Hildie...after, this
afternoon."
Hildie was not
sitting up on her own cot but was looking at Relena with a small smile.
"No big deal, though it did scare me, but I know you'd never really hurt
me, would you?"
"I would hope to not hurt
any of my friends, which I suppose only includes you and Duo, but still you are
the only two I have."
Relena jumped a little bit
feeling Hildie's warm hand on her cool wrist. "Friends forever,
right?"
"Right." She
returned the dark haired girl's smile, though it was only on her face a mere
second before becoming worrisome once more; Hildie again inquired.
Relena hastily rose
out of bed and slipped on her shoes, though still dressed in her shin length
cotton gown with long sleeves and a high button-up color. It was the
standard night attire for all of the children, boys and girls alike. "I
don't know, Hildie, I just know I can't stay here tonight. I have to, get out.
Something's going to happen. Don't ask me how, I just know."
The young girl padded her
way quietly to the door so as not to wake anymore of the girls. Feeling
Hildie's presence she turned to face her. "Hildie, I don't think you
should..."
"I can't let you go
out there alone, so don't argue with me, okay? And then there's Duo. He'll
never forgive us if we go with out him."
Relena sighed somewhat
exasperated but glad as well that she had such loyal friends. She only hoped
the girl who was like a sister to her and the boy she thought of as a brother
more then her blood brother wouldn't get hurt. "Okay, I won't
argue."
****************************
From his
hilltop lookout Milliardo saw the Demon Stalker mounting his horse and begin
his way up towards him and his army. He ordered his captain to take a small group
of men around and ambush the village from behind, while he would keep this
supposed slayer of demons preoccupied.
****************************
Meanwhile a trio of friends, to
old to be children, yet to young to be adults were slinking their way through
the yards of the monastery. The tallest of the trio, a girl, took a running
leap, and as if she was running on the air itself she effortlessly scaled the
ten-foot high wall. Once on top she threw down a long rope they had stashed
there, so that her two friends could climb up it as well.
****************************
"So you must be
Prince Milliardo, son of Count Peacecraft?"
"He is a king now."
Milliardo spoke haughtily as he began to circle his steed around that of the
unknown assassin.
Heero turned his horse as well,
so that he and the prince and their equines remained face to face with each
other. "Oh yes, his new title, just another thing he has stolen. The
great, powerful Lord, excuse me, King Peacecraft a mere thief."
Milliardo clenched his jaw
at the tenacity of the Stalker, yet he kept his calm. "Better to be
a thief, then a warrior whore who sells his body and weapons for profit."
Still facing, they and their horse's
circled one another in an awkward waltz as Heero smirked continuing to leer at
the young count. "And being who your mother was, you would know a
thing or two about whores."
Millardo then lost
his cool reserve and charged at Heero with full force and sword raised. The two
men's weapons clashed together in a spark of steel on steel, but neither one
fell from their horse. After a few more swipes they parted for a minute.
"You are
stronger then the other Slayers I have fought, you should be dead by now!"
With a smug look
still etched into his features Heero replied. "It is because I am
different from all other Slayers!" This time it was him who attacked and
once again blades met.
************************************
"Reginald told
me women were nuts but I never really believed him 'til now." Duo shook
his head while he spoke. "It's almost sunrise and you guys got it in your
heads there's something gonna happen."
Hildie scrunched her
face in anger. "Would you rather have us left you behind?" She
saw him shake his head no. "Then stop grippin'.
"I don't gripe I just tell
people how it is." So into the disagreement they were having they failed
to notice Relena had stopped walking and subsequently ran into her.
"Stop fooling around will
you and be quiet I hear something."
The three hunkered down in
silence underneath an overhang to the side of the road and within seconds they
heard the clomping sound of horse's hooves and marching feet; a deep male voice
telling the others with him their exact plan of attack. Once they had gone the
trio emerged from their hiding spot.
"Oh my God
they're going to attack the village!" Hildie gasped in a loud whisper.
"Why don't you
say it louder, I don't think the soldiers could hear you, plus you swore, so
don't ever get on my case about it again."
"Then, Duo, I swear
I'm gonna clobber you one of these days."
Relena twirled
around glaring at both of them. "Don't you two see what this means?
If they attack the village our home will be next and I doubt the townspeople
have any means to defend themselves."
"Then what do we do
oh, wise, leader." Duo huffed, throwing his hands up in the air. "You
don't expect us to actually fight them do you?"
A spark lit in Relena's eyes as
she placed her hands on her hips. "That, my good sir, is exactly
what I have planned to do. Follow me." She twirled back around on one foot
and began walking towards the direction of the soldiers.
"Then what are we waiting
for?" Hildie smiled wide as she rubbed her hands together and took off
after Relena.
Duo groaned
somewhat. "Reginald also said women will be the death of all
men...hey wait up guys." He huffed again in a quickened space to try and
catch up with the two girls.
************************************************************************
They broke the lock on each
other's swords and once again withdrew, both of them still atop their steeds,
though Heero could tell that Milliardo was waning somewhat and with a few more
calculated hits he would go down. Just about as Heero was to charge again
he heard screams that the army was advancing quickly on the village from the
back. "Holy Mother!" Heero cursed as he yanked his horse on
it's hind legs and in an almost one hundred, eighty degree turn changed the
creature's directions, running the beast full force towards the village.
Milliardo swallowed his
desire to laugh aloud knowing now was not the time to get overconfident and
sloppy, for the Stalker could still prove quite dangerous. He raised his hand
signaling the rest of his army to attack and rode forward ahead of them; the
battle cry that roared from his throat could be heard above those of his men.
*****************************
"Remember,
there's only ten of them and only the captain is on horseback. Okay, you two
understand my plan?"
"Yea, you'll jump
their leader from behind on his horse and while they're distracted me and Duo
will jump up from the bushes and begin stoning them."
Duo nibbled his lips
nervously as the words Hildie spoke slowly began to sink into his mind.
"Your plan is pure insanity Eena. I mean even if we succeed in attacking
we will most probably end up getting our throats slit...and I kinda like my
throat the way it is."
"Friends for
all time, Duo." Hildie frowned at the young man's silence. "Fine. You
stay and hide and Eena and I will do this. Besides, you know how strong she is.
She'll take the guy out in no time."
Duo curled his fists
and shook his head. "No. I'm not leaving either of you and I ain't a
coward. I'm in all the way."
Relena smiled and
kissed the boy's cheek, a slight pink rosy tint covered his entire face as she
spoke. "You're as brave as any knight, Duo."
The brown haired boy
shrugged shyly. "Yea, yea, yea, Duo the fearless, that's me." He
sighed deeply and raised his head, a devious smile crossing his lips.
"Then what are we waiting for? We need to do this before it's to
late." He sprinted off ahead of the girls.
Hildie furrowed his brow
and twisted her lips. "That boy amazes me sometimes, ya know?&;
