Roxanne, The Girl Called Death - Chapitre 6
Konbanwa, minna-san! Here's chapitre 6! Enjoy!
#____The Dream that Destiny Brought Forth Part I [Transformation]____#
[Destiny]
Destiny looked through her cyrstal ball in disgust. The sight of Roxanne and Haseo cuddling together pissed her off. " This is atrocious! The princess of Gothica, and the prince of Lightenra. How sweet. Holding on to each other despite knowing that they are forbidden to love. They are even going against Fate.... What fools they are!"
At the thought of Fate, Destiny's elf ears fell. Her eyes revealed a hint of despair. She and Fate also used to be like the present Haseo and Roxanne. They had been so happy together back then. They thought that they were bound by fate and destiny. They thought that their love would bloom. However, it was the Heaven Lord that had separated the both of them. They were never to see each other ever again. How she hated he Heaven Lord! How she longed to be with Fate.... But that seemed impossible. Their love was probably just not strong enough to defeat Heaven Lord's wrath.... They probably just weren't meant to be....
Ever since Destiny got torn away from Fate, they had been assigned to serve the Heaven Lord. Whatever duties they were given, they had to carry out. Destiny had control over people's destinies, while Fate had control over people's fates. At the moment, both of them shared the same task. And, it was of great importance: Separating Roxanne from Haseo. At the thought of being controlled by the emotionless Heaven Lord, Destiny felt utterly pissed off and disgusted.
" Snow. Firey. Dark. Light. Your time has come. Go."
The four cratures obeyed Destiny's command. They were created only to serve a sole purpose----to hep fulfill the task that both Fate and Destiny had been given. In a flash, they all teleported to Roxanne's room in Gothica.
[The four legendary creatures]
The four legendary creatures hovered over the sleeping Haseo and Roxanne in mid-air. " Looks like we have found the chosen ones," Fiery started.
" Indeed we have...." Snow muttered.
" The prophecy shall be fulfilled. It is our duty. Afterall, that is the purpose of our existence. We cannot hesitate after coming this far," Fiery added.
Snow nodded disappointedly in agreement. However, she knew that this would be the last time that she would be able to see Firey face to face. Dark was thinking likewise at that moment. She wouldn't see Light ever again.
Firey and Light could read their thoughts. They, too, did not want to leave Snow's and Dark's side. However, they knew that they had an important mission to fulfill at hand.
Firey cuddled against Snow for the last time, and so did Light and Dark. "Maybe someday, we will all meet again...."
After their last bid of farewell, they dissolved into Haseo's and Roxanne's dreams.
[Roxanne & Haseo]
" This hollowness.... Where am I?" Haseo and Roxanne thought simultaneously.
[Death/Roxanne, Snow & Dark]
Shards of ice drifted around Roxanne. The coldness in the air was so intense that her body became partially numb. "Death...." came a ghostly voice.
"Who.... Who are you? Show yourslef," Roxanne inquired.
Amongst the icy blue cyrstals, a bright blue portal tore open. Roxanne prepared for a counter attack. However, it wasn't necessary. A black, two-tailed vixen stood in front of her. On its head boe the sign of a glowing blue snowflake. Next to the vixen was a mutated creature. It was one of the strangest Roxanne has ever seen. It had the body of a black raven and the head of a vampire bat. On it's chest was engraved yet another symbol. The Death in Roxanne recognised it. It was the mark of the Hell Lord's curse, the one that she also had on her forehead.
" Snow and Dark. My elements. My guardians." Roxanne whispered without her own knowledge.
[Nigel/Haseo, Firey & Light]
Balls of fire came licking towards Haseo. The heat was unbearable as Haseo's surroundings became fiery red. " Nigel," a freindly and warm voice spoke.
"Who.... Who are you? Reveal yourself," Haseo shivered despite the sweltering heat.
Amongst the flames, a bright orange portal tore open. Haseo was stunned. A firey male wolf-like creature stood right in front of him. Next to the fiery furball, was a white eagle. The eagle had a symbol on its chest----a cross.
"Firey and Light. My elements. My guardians." These words spilled from Haseo's lips without his notice.
[Roxanne, Snow & Dark]
Snow and Dark explained everything in detail to Roxanne. Roxanne was not surprised at all. She had known all this while that she was born under the Snow and Dark stars. Destiny had already planned it all. However, it pained her to face the reality of having to part with Haseo, her prince. She merely nodded in silence.
[Haseo, Firey & Light]
" No. I won't do it. Never! Why? Why must we be forbidden to love? Why can't we be together? Why?!" Haseo couldn't believe his ears.
" You two are from completely different dimensions! Destiny has arranged for both of you to lead separate lives! Understand that, Nigel! You just can't be with her!" Firey growled.
" No. I object. As my guardian, you should obey my every command! I shall not leave her side! Never! I have sworn to be by her side, to love her, to protect her. No one will stop my decision. Absolutely no one!"
" Suit yourslef. But remember, Nigel, you may be able to change your destiny, but you can never escape from the hands of Fate."
[The four legendary creatures & Destiny]
" Proceed with the ritual," Destiny ordered as she observed everything from her cyrstal ball.
" Yes, ma'am." the legendary creatures replied telepathically.
[Roxanne, Snow & Dark]
"This transformation may not be able to restore what you have lost. However, your strength will boost to a hundred per cent. Ready, Death? This will hurt a little," Snow and Dark continued.
Roxanne nodded solemnly and steeled herself to resist the pain.
Dark grew in size. The creatures eyes were blood red. She wrapped her feathery black wings around Roxanne. Roxanne was surounded in darkness. However, she was not frightened by it. Dark was her friend. She did not fear her. Dark's fangs dived into Roxanne's neck. Then, Dark became a thick black cloud of smoke and entered through the fang marks on Roxanne's neck. After that, black feathery wings shot out from Roxanne's back. The mark of Hell Lord's curse became red. Roxanne's eyes turned a crimson colour, and her pupils became a slit. Her complexion also became paler. Her fangs grew longer and sharper as her vampirism was awakened.
Snow was next. She looked into Roxanne's eyes. Both the eyes that were filled with hurt and pain met. Ice splinters danced and circled furiously around Snow and Roxanne. Snowflakes descended from the hollowness. Roxanne grew numb with coldness. Snow disappeared and changed into the form of snowflakes. Snowflakes embedded into Roxanne's milky complexion. The snowflakes stung at her skin. Roxanne's blood froze and travelled up to her heart. The snow symbols were embedded all over Roxanne's body. Death could feel her old self creeping slowly back into her heart. However, her strong emotions for Haseo had still remained. Despite that fact, she had became cold once more.
Roxanne felt so much sorrow, hurt and pain in her heart. Physically and mentally, she was badly hurt. And she had just realised that her crave for blood was getting stronger. Her vampirism had been dormant since birth, however now, it was awakened. Her body did not have any blood intake since, and she desperately needed blood to regenerate her.
[Haseo, Firey & Light]
" Light. Let's do it." Firey snarled, fire spewing out between his teeth.
Light nodded in agreement. The white eagle grew larger in size. A blinding light shot out in all directions. Haseo covered his hand over his eyes. Firey walked towards Light. Light wrapped his white feathers around Firey. Firey was surrounded by light. Flames licked furiously at Light's feathers. Light melted into Firey's flaming body. Soft white feathers shot out from Firey's blazing red body. The cross symbol was emblazoned on his forehead.
Without notice, Firey pounced onto Haseo. He placed his flaming paws against Haseo's chest. He melted into Haseo's heart. Haseo was flushed with fiery warmth. The flames tickled him, as his heart was filled love, happiness and all kinds of positive energy. Flames licked around his entire body, embedding the fire symbols. A cross was formed on Haseo's forehead. Soft, delicate white feathers shot out from Haseo's back.
Haseo felt all re-energised. Warmth filled his heart. He felt as if he could never have felt any better. He felt as if he had been given a new life.
He may have felt that he was at the top of the world then. However, Roxanne was feeling down in the dumps then.
What they didn't know was that this was only the beginning. Whatever that awaited them was not going to be good....
#____End of Chapitre 6____#
There you go. This took me hours to complete! It's such an achievement for me. I know that I might have spelt Firey as Fiery. However, this is the correct spelling: Firey. I'll correct it really soon.
Anyways, arigatou, minna-san!
Edited: The spelling errors should have been corrected now. Do tell me if I happen to miss something out!
