| Of Dragons and Demons Chapter 2 ~~~ Disclaimers: I do not own Slayers and I�m not making any money off of this. It is for entertainment purposes only. ~~~ "...The Shadowlands?!" "Yup." Zelgadiss couldn't believe it. She had to be joking. No one, human and chimera alike, went to that place. At least, not if they wanted to come back alive. The 'Shadowlands' was the name given to the land located to the east of the Leilia River. It was home to demons and dragons and who knows what else. No one went there. Especially not now, when the oracles of the north had reported a war that was soon to break out. 'A was of the titans' is what they had said. Not something he was particularly eager to get involved in. "B-but why?" he asked. "Simple. I've got some people after me and I know they won't look for me there.". "But it's dangerous!" "A little adventure never hurt anyone." Zelgadiss couldn't believe this... "'A little adventure'?! You could be killed!!" "Could but won't." ...He just couldn't believe this... "How can you be so sure?!" "I'm crazy, not reckless. Besides, I'm sure I can handle whatever's out there. I mean, how bad can it be?" She was crazy. "...You're going to the SHADOWLANDS!!" "Yeeeeeeeeeees...I think we've established that already. Look, Zel, if you're so worried about me, why don't you come with me?" ...No, she was beyond crazy. She was flat out insane. She was suicidal. She was......what if she wasn't? She could cast a Dragu Slave, maybe she really could handle whatever was out there. '...Great, now I'm going insane...she wouldn't last 5 minutes out there.......but how do I know? I've never been there...maybe it's all rumors. I guess I'll never know unless I go...besides, maybe I could learn something.........wow, I really am insane. Oh, what the heck.' "...okay." Now it was Lina's turn to be shocked. "...?! What??" "I said, ok, I'll come." "B-b-but I...I didn't mean...I didn't think you'd...," Lina sighed in defeat. "Alright." ~~~ K, that's all I've got so far. hope u liked it! more 2 come soon. ^_^ |
