It Lies in the Heart.

OOC- ^^

June slept soundly. Her face looked calm and her eyes were closed gently. A small smile was spread across her lips as she had a pleseant dream.

Kimiko yawned and stretched, finding herself to still be in the lookout tower. She rubbed her eyes sleepily and rubbed her neck, sorely. It doesn't matter if I'm hurting or not... I said I would stay here until Natsuki comes back... And I'm positive she didn't get here overnight...

 

Kelveras laid down next to June, "I love you so much June.....with all my heart...." he said gently kissing her cheek, "whatever awaits us at the palace....we are in together....I won't let anything happen to you....." he said looking at the sunrise.

Lanern finished up and walked over to Natsuki, he gently touched her cheek, "so much pain....that she shouldn't have to endure...." he sighed, "as soon as she wakes up....we can head out....until then I want her to be able to sleep as much as she can...."

 

Natsuki opened her eyes, "Lanern?....." she said, wincng in pain when she sat up,

 

June opened her eyes tiredly. As she felt the pain from the wound, she remembered what'd happened. She looked over at Kelveras who was laying next to her. She smiled and gave his hand a gentle squeeze.

 

Li patted Vaj's hand, "Maybe she was joking, she....Is like that sometimes..." He lied as he looked out the window

Vaj looked at him with a worried face, "Sure..." She whispered then looked up at him, "Can we try our new disguises!? Please!"

Li sighed and looked at her, "Can you handle it?"
"Handle what..."
Li looked down, "I know your Apathic has been acting up lately

Vaj frowned, "Only a little! Ill be fine..." She said then ran into her room to get ready

Li shook his head and went into his room to change

 

Kelveras looked over once he felt the squeeze, "my love has awakened...." he said leaning up and looking into her eyes, "I hope you got some sleep dear....you looked peaceful.....and beautiful...." he smiled tenderly kissing her once, "today we will get you the doctors who can help you...."

Lanern held her up and looked her over, "I hope you were able to get some sleep princess...." he sighed, "but don't worry....we will make it to the kingdom today and we will get you fixed up....and you can see your brother...."

 

Natsuki smiled through her pain, "thank you Lanern," she said

alex finally arrived at the battle field on his horse smashing through some destinies

i hope natsuki is alright .... olivia though t

len left the house and headed twords the destiny castel hoping to become a knight

 

June gently kissed him back and smiled. "Thank you, Kelveras..." She said and made herself sit up as best she could. Although the wound on her stomach was still painful, it didn't seem as bad when Kelveras was there. She gave his hand a gentle squeeze. "I love you..." She said, smiling.

Kimiko stared out the window of the lookout tower, still waiting for Natsuki to return.

 

"I love you too June....with all my heart princess...." Kelveras smiled and gently picked her up in his arms and kissed her tenderly once, he carefully got on his horse and made sure June was comfortable, "today we will be back at the kingdom dear.....I'll try to hurry as fast as possible...." he said gently touching her cheek and riding off.

"Its my duty princess...as head knight....and your friend...." Lanern smiled gently picking her up, he gave her hand a gentle squeeze and carefully got on his horse, "today we will get you home....I promise...." he said riding off.

 

Natsuki tightened her eyes and tried to ignore the pain that seared through her body, im going to see Nii-sama, so-... i need to try and get through this..... she clutched her arm and bit her lip

Tadami's eyes opened slightly when he heard the door open but frowned when it wasnt Natsuki, he sighed and burried his face into his arms

 

June nodded in response and held onto Kelveras tightly so that she wouldn't fall off as they were riding. She winced at the pain in her stomach but did her best to ignore it. Kelveras said we'd get back to the castle as soon as possible... She thought. Mom's going to have my head... She thought, but that was the least of her worries right now.

Kimiko sighed and stared out over the horizon. Waiting won't do anything, but... She closed her eyes.

 

Kelveras noticing June was in thought and held her close to him, "June...we know each other better than that....I told you dear....whatever the punishment....I will take it love...." he said gently squeezing her hand, "I promise to protect you until the day I die....and if it means doing it today....I will....." he said as he saw the castle coming up in the distance.

Lanern noticed Natsuki tense up, "if you need to cling you can..." he smiled, "what ever will ease your pain princess...." he said holding her close, "we are almost there....I see our castle not too far off....I bet your brother is waiting....." he smiled.

 

Natsuki shook her head, "no, i wont hurt you," she said and tightened her eyes again, she gaged then coughed, "please hurry,"

Tadami sighed, please be ok Natsuki...

 

"Kelveras..." June started to say but then closed her eyes tightly, holding on to him tighter as the pain grew worse. She then looked down at her stomach, seeing that the wound had started to bleed again. Luckily, the bandages would help until they got back to the castle.

Kimiko opened her eyes and noticed someone riding on a horse not too far off in the distance. Hmm? She looked closer and saw that it was Lanern, and he was carrying Natsuki. Lanern! Natsuki! She quickly ran out of the door to the tower and ran down the stairs. I hope she's okay... Kimiko thought.

 

"I'm sorry....please just rest dear....." Kelveras said holding onto her hand gently, "I promise you will be ok June....no matter what I have to do...." he said as he sped up a little, "I love you....." he said as he saw the castle gate being opened.

"Its ok if you do princess....after what has happened to you I deserve a little...." Lanern said, "especially if it will take away from yours.....almost there.....just a little bit longer...." he said as he sped up almost to the castle gate.

 

Natsuki looked at the town through the gate,

Tadami continued to watch the door, waiting for Natsuki,

 

June watched as the castle gates were opened and then closed her eyes, gently leaning against Kelveras. "I love you, too..." June said softly and gently squeezed his hand. She did her best to endure the pain.

As she ran downstairs, Kimiko accidentially ran into Tadami. "Ahh!" She shouted as she suddenly fell over. "Sorry, Tadami!" She said.

 

"Almost there dear...." Kelveras said riding fast and holding June close to him, he gently kissed her hand, "I promise you will be ok...." he said as he flew through the gates and slowly stopped in the middle of the courtyard, "get the doctors out here now....I mean it....help the princess...." he yelled as he got off his horse gently with June and held her in his arms close, "I love you June...you will be ok.....".

Lanern flew through the gate and stopped in the courtyard, "doctors....needed out here now...." he said getting off his horse with Natsuki, "hurry it up....princess Natsuki needs attention now....."

 

"its ok Kimiko," Tadami said then froze when he heard Lanern outside,

"Sir!" the doctors said as they came out, one of them took Natsuki from Lanern,

"i want to see Nii-sama," Natsuki said,

"he's just inside, we will take you to him," the doctors said,

Tadami swallowed thickly and looked at the door as it slammed open and his eyes starred in horror as the doctor carried
