Gone astray

She walked along the beach then the rocky cliff looking for her comrade. There ship had been hidden on the beach not far from the Thunder Lion Cage and they had news that ARMS was coming that way soon, so they must move out today. She came out from her thoughts when she spotted him. He was sitting at the end of the cliff looking out across the snowy fields to the castle in the distance.....Slayheim Castle. She walked a little further and made sure to kick a few rocks so he would hear her coming up behind him. She saw that instead of him turning to look back at her, his one hand slipped down to grab hold of one pistols at his side. She walked closer to him then came up to his side. He looked up at her then let go of the gun and looked back to the Castle. Final she broke the silence. "Vinsfeld wants you to come back. We're going to go soon, ARMS is coming this way."

".......fine...."

"Are you coming?"

"...soon..."

".......can I sit down by you?"

".....doesn't mater what you do, I don't own this place."

"...." She walked closer to him then sat down on the cliff, and dropped her lags over the end.

"........."

"You know I used to have a lot of friends that lived there......"

He looked over at her. ".....they die?"

"...everyone did...."

"sorry."

"It was ok I got over it."

"....."

"...but there was one person that I used to think was still alive.."

"Someone close to you?"

"...he was like a brother to me......no more then that."

"........"

She looked over at him and smiled her light blue eyes lined with the essence of tears, as her red hair flew in front of her face from the light breeze. "I used to hope that if anyone lived that he would."

"...what was his name?"

"Don't you remember that anymore?"

He looked over at her and then to the ground. "How would I know?"

"....his name was Dante......he had silver hair with long bangs that always covered his Ruby Red eyes.....I never got tired of staring at his eyes.....and also he had this cute habit that everyone thought was very strange except me...."

"...what was that?"

"....well every time he would get happy or excited or something his glasses would slip off..."

"...." He looked away and scolded. ".....to bad he's dead it sounds like you to used to be really close...."

"...are you sure he's dead?"

"......."

"....ether way I wish that if he was still alive, some place, that he would come back to me......"

"....."

".......I guess I'm going to go back to the ship now." She got up and started to walk away.

"......maybe he is still alive someplace.....but...............it could just be he's afraid of what might happen if he starts acting like himself again......" His voice was filled with sadness that he, on any other occasion, never let show.

"....if he is still alive I hope some day at least we can talk just for a little wile."

"....................................me to........" Judecca said as tears started to come to his eyes, as he watched her walk away.
