Midnight Blue

 

 

A wounded heart will remember the fear.

A pained heart will look for something to lean on.

Strength is a fortress that binds everything together.

Gentleness cannot be spoken without knowing the tears.

Tonight...... Tonight......

Towards a wavering flame against the

Midnight blue.

 

            Tonight, she would return to the little town where she’d last seen her friends. They’d taken off on their separate ways after the defeat of Dark Star, and the only one she knew was reasonably okay was Amelia. But they’d all promised they’d return. They promised they’d come back on this night.

 

Darkness....rain....now, tell me.

Moon....wind....now, answer me.

Far....far....in the distance far away.

At the end of the journey, what will there be?

 

            Lina’d tried to get word of Gourry and Zelgadis, but of the swordsman were only rumors. Of her chimera friend… nothing.

            It was like he’d vanished off the face of the world. No-one had seen the chimera.

            Of course… that was completely like Zelgadis.

 

The piercing dreams can be hidden from sight.

Yet the dreams will never disappear.

Strength is the proof that we all come to gaze upon.

Gentleness at these times is foolishness that will become a burden.

Tonight...... Tonight......

Towards the blazing flames against the

Midnight blue.

 

            The only thing that irritated her was that promise that Amelia had said that Zelgadis had made. He’d taken Amelia’s bracelet. So if he didn’t show up, she’d personally track him down and fireball his ass into the next year. He’d damn well better not break Amelia’s heart!

 

Birds....clouds....now, tell me.

Waves....shadows....now, answer me.

Far....far....in the distance far away.

At the end of the journey, what will there be?

 

            There was the inn… she’d know shortly. And… was that Amelia? Amelia Wil Tesla Saillune standing out in the front, talking to some guy? Was he bothering Amelia? Lina didn’t like her friends being bothered.

            Lina walked up, drawing short when she saw the girl throw her arms around the strange man. Suddenly she had her answers.

 

Darkness....rain....now, tell me.

Moon....wind....now, answer me.

Birds....clouds....now, tell me.

Waves....shadows....now, answer me.

Far....far....in the distance far away.

At the end of the journey, what will there be?

 

            It was Zelgadis.

 

Far....far....in the distance far away.

At the end of the journey, what will there be?

 

            And he was human.
