She ran as fast as she could, through the lonely deep blackness of the forest.
"Someone, anyone, Help me!" Ameria screamed, with tears streaming down her pail, frightened face.
As she ran, the air around her began to thicken, until it was an earie, thick mist. Soon, she could not not see anything but the fog, and a bright light ahead. America, unsure what to do, decided to see what the light was, so she ran to it.
As she neared the light, she could soon make out a necklace, it was couldn't be. The necklace was basically made of a piece of string, and a deep green stone. Wearing it, was a woman who also seemed very familiar. The lady had a pail face, and deep, golden eyes, that had a small glint of gentleness in them. She wore a light blue kimono, and held her long, waist length black hair up with a bluish-purple colored ribbon.
"Where have I seen her before?" Ameria thought.
"Darling," the women whispered.
"It can't be, that voice!" Ameria mumble.
"I missed you so much," the women said.
"Mother!" America cried, running to the women, and throwing her arms around her.
"Ameria," her mother said in a dead serious tone, "You must listen to me!"
"What is it?" Ameria asked, in a worried voice.
"You mustn't accept it!" she cried.
"Mustn't accept what?" Ameria asked, looking at her mother.
The women clutched her daughter's hands, and said, as her eyes began to fill with tears, "You're blood."
"My blood?" Ameria whispered, as her mother began to faid away.
"Mamma?" She cried,"mother, don't leave, what do you mean? My blood? What about my blood? Mama!"
"Mamma!" Ameria cried, then let out a scream, as she shot up from her bed at the Inn her and the others (Lina, Zelgadis, and Gourry) were staying in. She was sweat soaked form head to toe and her eyes were filled with tears. Ameria pulled her hand over to the dresser, and picked up her necklace, the one that was also in her dream.
"That dream again." She mumbled, as she walked to the window still.
"What does it mean?" she thought, staring at the deep green stone, then whispered,"Mother" Ameria continued staring at the necklace, trying to figure out what the dream meant. But, her thoughts were soon interrupted by a knock at the door. She walked over to it, and opened it, standing there was Gourry,Lina, and Zelgadis.
"Ameria, are you okay?" Lina asked, looking concerned, "We heard screaming."
"Yeah," Gourry said, "At first, I thought it was Lina complaining or something, cause you know how loud she screams and never shuts up when.....I'm gonna be quiet now. "
Gourry had decided to shut up after Lina had dropped a nearby vase on his foot.
America hesitated a moment, trying to decide whether she should tell them about the dream or not. She had been having it for the past few nights, but this was the first time she woke up crying and sweating.
"Well," Ameria said, "I had a bad dream, that's all."
"You want to talk about it?" Gourry asked, "Grandma said talking about bad dreams always makes you feel better."
"I'm fine really, I just dreamt that we ran out of food!" Ameria replied.
"Now that's scary, I don't blame ya for screaming like that." Lina said "I should have known," Zelgadis sighed, and walked back to the room him and Gourry were staying in.
After Lina and Gourry had left, America decided she should try and get some sleep. "I hate lying to them," she said aloud, and rolled over and closed her eyes, "But I can't tell them yet, I don't know why or what, but there's something about this dream I must figure out first."
Ameria then drifted off to sleep, mumbling the words, "I know this dream is impotrant, I know it."
A dark figure which was hiding in the shadows stepped forward, letting a few pail rays of the Moonlight shine on him. He ran his hand throw his almost shoulder length deep purple hair, and walked up to Ameria's exhausted, sleeping form.
He gazed at her a moment then said, smirking, "You have no idea how important it is."
Ameria's eyes shot open, and saw standing before her bed Xellos, whom was staring at her.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing here!" she yelled, as she jumped up onto her the highest piece of furniture she could find.
"How dare you enter a girls room without knocking! In the name of hope, love and Justice, I, Ameria-Wil-Tesla-Saillune will not let an evil peeping tom such as yourself to..ARGHH!!!!!!!"
Ameria yet again tripped, she closed her eyes tightly waiting to hit the ground, but, she didn't.
Slowly, she opened one eye, and saw an arm, she then looked up, and saw Xellos staring at her, Smiling that same old Xellos smile.
"You should really work on you're balance you know," Xellos said to her, and dropped her.
"Lina's room is down the hall, ya know." Ameria said, gathering herself up off the floor.
Xellos smirked again, cause everyone by now knew that for every "chosen ones" and so on usually involved Lina, but,not in this case.
"I know," he said,"but this time it isn't HER that's having dreams and waking up screaming is it?"
"Huh?" Ameria asked, looking very surprised, the it hit her, he knew.
"You know what the dreams mean, why I'm having them and why I'm having them don't you?" She suspiciously said.
"That," Xellos said, "Is a secret."
"That's not fair!" Ameria cried, "I..... ZzZzZz"
Xellos grinned after he put her to sleep, she was gonna hate him when she woke up.
"In time," he said as he disappeared, "In time."
Yeah, Yeah, I know what you're thinking, "Min Chan, you're nuts". But, hey, I just saw a picture of Ameria and was listening to a Vampire Princess Miyu (oh, yeah, this fanfic was inspired by that funky Miyu OVA series)and my brain started coming up with the ideas I just had to write down.
