Hi I'm back again with more crazy fic ideas. This one amazingly is not a Lina/Zel fic. It's a Zel/Other fic and that other is Meghan Sunohomishi. Also it's slightly lemon so if that stuff offends you, don't read it. Any way I don't own Slayers, but the plot line and new characters are my own. Any resemblance to any people reading this is purely coincidence, so don't sue me. Bye-bye.
The sun rose this morning on a girl running through the forest. At a casual glance she was just a regular girl in a hurry, but on closer inspection she was scratched and bleeding and near exhaustion. Her name was Meghan Sunohomishi, and she had been running for two days straight. The girl stumbled and didn't get up for several minutes. She was dizzy and so thirsty she could hardly breathe. Her last thought was" After all that, I'm going to die out here, and they'll never be free." Closing her eyes she sank into blessed darkness.
Zelgadis had been up scince dawn and was presently waiting for the smell of food to wake the others. Just as he suspected the first one up was Lina, who went straight for the food without so much as a thank you. Next up was Filia who turned her nose up at the food and went off to catch her own. Soon after that Xellos phased in and proceeded to watch Lina stuff herself silently. Last were Gourry and Amelia, who scrambled to get their fair share of the food before Lina ate it all. Sighing, and mumbling something about greedy lay-abouts, Zel got up and started straightening the camp area, getting ready to leave. It was a habit now, getting up, cooking, and cleaning up after the rest of them. Not that any one noticed or said thank you. The yelling and thumping from over in that direction told him they were leaving. Without a word or backward glance he started walking.
Meghan stood up and looked around her. She was in a large stone chamber filled with people. This isn't right! She thought. I'm dead, I should be floating, drifting of some where completely oblivious. One of the people grabbed her arm and pulled her towards the center of the room." Ow! That hurts!" she yelled at the person. O-okay now I know I'm not dead! She was pushed out onto a platform, and it started to rise. It came to a stop in front of a person very familiar. It was Neref-sama, the leader of her people. She bowed, What is he doing here?
Neref spoke" I am sorry Meghan, but we cannot allow you to pass on. Your survival is imperative to our people's survival. The council of judgment denies you death. We are sending you back now." He lifted his hand and a blue-white glow surrounded her.
When she awoke again Meghan was lying on the forest floor. Wondering what woke her she lifted her head. Well at least she wasn't quite so tired any more, now if she could just get some water… Her head jerked up again. Were those voices she had just heard? Yes they were. And running water too! Without a thought for her safety Meghan surged up and ran in that direction.
A few minutes later she stumbled into a clearing where a small band of people had stopped to rest. Without even glancing at them she headed straight for the stream, and took a long satisfying drink.
"Amelia are you sure this is the right direction?" Lina asked for the thousandth time. "We should have been there hours ago!"
"Well, Miss Lina, I've been following the map exactly."
"Give me that! Amelia, you bird brain you've been reading it upside down! Aarrrgggghhhhh!"
Zel looked up at the sun and sighed. Not even noon and we're already hopelessly lost. Amazing!
"Well," Lina growled looked around the clearing," We'd better stop here and sort our selves out. While were at it maybe we can have lunch!" this thought seemed to cheer her up and she settled down amiably.
Pitiful, Zel thought, just pitiful. Lina can't go two hours without food, Amelia is a klutz, who can't read a map, and Gourry doesn't know which end is up. Filia and Xellos certainly aren't going to be any help. He glared at the Dragon maiden who was at this moment shrieking and swinging her mace at Xellos, who was tormenting her mercilessly. Pitiful. Zel's train of thought was suddenly interrupted as Amelia gasped loudly and pointed. A girl stumbled onto the clearing, and ignoring them, headed straight for the stream. She was short with chin length auburn hair and wide panic stricken green eyes. She was wearing a sleeveless violet shirt and skintight black pants, which were accented bye a violet cape, black headband, and dagger strapped to her waist.
Lina walked over and tapped her on the shoulder. "Hi."
Quick as a flash she whipped around and brought her dagger to Lina's throat. Backing away nervously she whimpered "Stay back!" urgently. She was getting closer to the rest of them. Malicious as ever Xellos phased in beside Zel and let the girl bump into him. She whirled around and a look of absolute terror crossed her face, she screamed and fainted.
Without thinking Zel reached out and caught her. Startled he looked up to find every one but Xellos staring at her in transfixed amazement.
"Nice catch Zelly boy." Xellos smirked.
"Well, we can't just leave her here," Filia said,"I guess we should set up camp."
After setting her down Zel sat against a tree and buried his face in his hands. This day just get weirder and weirder!
Well here's the first chapter, hope you liked it. I'm working on the next chapter so it shouldn't take to long e-mail me at Serenastar@selenity.zzn.com and lemme know what you think. Bye-bye. Starz
