Another chance

By: Dark fire angel

DFA: *Grins for some reason* ^-^ You wanna know a secret? *Whispers loudly* I'm going on VACATION! Miau! I'm going to London, to stay at a friend's house ^0^ In 6 days I'll take the plane and go!! Yayness above!

Xel: *Blinks* Angel-san.… you're not good at keeping secrets, you are aware of it, ne? *Waves at Filia who comes up*

DFA: Aww.… I dun need to keep secrets, Xelly-welly! *Glomps Xel* n_n

Xel: *Twitch* Xelly-welly? *Squirms a bit*

DFA: What? Only Filly's allowed to call you that? *Smiles innocently as she watches Filia glare*

Xel: *Thinks then taps DFA on her nose, voice only barely above a whisper* Actually, then day I hear Fi-chan call me that, I'll wear a `Filia-sama rules and Namagomi drools' T-shirt.…

Fi: *Grins when she hears Xel* Xelly-welly!!! *Walks up to him* ^-^I'm going shopping! Wanna come? *Begins to pull Xel away from DFA*

DFA: …. *Takes a camera out and begins taking photos*

Xel: *Jaw drops* Huh?! What did you just call me?! *Gets pulled away by Fi* O.o

Fi: I think I know a place where they do T-shirts!!!!! *Runs off with Xel*

DFA: *Looks at the photos* …. *Shrugs, writes something on the back of one, drops it on the floor and walks away*

Photo: [Nope.… I dun own Filly and Xelly…. I'd say the own each other! ^0^ And that their owner owns them both and that…. I think I'll stop before I confuse myself @_@]

~ - ~ - ~ - ~ - ~ (As it's the afternoon, how about Sports class? ^-^)

The classes were almost over by now, and Filia was kind of grateful, "Am so tired…. can't wait to go home and just drop on the sofa and do nothing at all for the rest of the afternoon!" she stretched as she walked down the corridor with Mitsy, "Do you feel as tired as I do, Mits?

The auburn hair girl couldn't help but giggle, "Humm.… actually I don't," she said as they entered the gym, "But I haven't been chasing Xel-san around the school patio with a mace during a half an hour.… therefore it's not wonder!" she grined when she saw the purple haired boy wave at them before running to join their conversation.

"Fi-chan!!" he chirped as he opened an eye to her, "Where's mace-sama?" he described a circle around the ex-dragon whilst making a hum-like noise as if he were in deep thought, "Where did you hide it? Your sport clothe is WAY to short to hide mace-sama… where is it? Huh, huh, huh?" he poked her in an arm and watched her twitch.

Filia closed her eyes, gritting her teeth together, "I will not kill the Namagomi…. I will not dirty the gym with his blood…. I will ignore him…." She took deep breaths, trying to cancel Xel out of her mind till the teacher came.

The ex-mazoku giggled, "If you're ignoring me, you won't mind if I do this!" he tied a purple bow in her long hair, holding it up in a ponytail. However, the blond was true to her word; she did not budge even an inch, which made Xellos giggle some more, "Wow, Fi-chan! You're good at ignoring!" he commented when the girl sat down on the floor.

Mitsy burst out laughing when the purple haired boy proceeded to sit himself on Filia's lap, "Xel-san.… I think you're pushing your luck!"

Indeed he was, but the ex-dragon was determined to not lose to him, and so she sat perfectly still, "I have will power, I have will power, I have will power! Must resist urge to kill, must resist urge to destroy, must resist urge to home-run hit him!" she chanted several phrases like these over and over again through gritted teeth.

"You ARE good at ignoring, Fi-chan!" purred Xellos from his position on her lap, "But I'm afraid I'm better.…" This said he leaned over and kissed her on the lips.

His move made Filia's eyes go wide before she clenched her fists, growling low in her throat before breaking away from his kiss, "XELLOOOOOOS!!" she jumped to her feet and grabbed a chair that was lying around, "I'm so gonna KILL you!!!" she shrieked, then charged at him.

Xellos laughed as he jumped to his feet too and began running around, "Awww.… come on, Fi-chan! You enjoyed it!! Fess up!!" he ducked the swing of the chair and giggled when the rest of the students watched them run `round and `round the gym, "Fi-chan! Calm down! It was only a game… you dun want the teacher to find you chasing me whilst waving a chair over your head, now do you?"

The blond stopped running and glared at the purple haired boy, "Fine! I'll get you later, Xel-KUN!" she threw the chair to the side and stormed back to Mitsy just as the teacher walked into the gym.

It turned out that they were going to have to do an exercise that involved climbing a rope up to the ceiling. All the kids looked up and groaned in distress, they had hoped to play football or basketball! Anything but PROPER exercise like this.… a game of hockey would have been nice too!

Suddenly both Xel and Fi found themselves looking at the rope and then at each other, silently daring the other to do better. With inner fire lighting her eyes, the blond raised her hand in the air, "Sir! Can I go first?!" she asked, voice raising more than she had intended it to, "Please? I can do it! Really I can!"

The teacher blinked for a moment, then nodded. He watched Filia grab the rope with both hands then jump and start climbing it with a bit of effort.

The blond looked at the crowd of pupils under her, narrowing her gaze as she saw Xellos looking at her through open eyes, smile vanished from his face as he stared, "I'll show you…." she muttered as she turned back to her climbing. Once she reached the top, she smiled smugly, "Ha! Made it! I'm.…" however, she wasn't able to finish the sentence for suddenly, her hands slipped from the rope, "Eck!" was all she was able to utter before she began to fall down.…

Both Mitsy and Xellos stared in shock as a goldish aura surrounded her briefly just as she was about to hit the ground, making her disappear for a mere millisecond to have her reappear safely sitting on the floor with a bewildered expression on her face. They wasted no more time and ran up to her.

"Filia!" yelled the auburn haired girl as she kneeled down beside her, "Are you ok?! What happened?!" she helped her friend up, searching her face for an explanation to what she thought she had seen.

The ex-dragon's mouth opened, but no sound came out. She snapped her head to the purple haired boy, only to find his eyes open still, a troubled expression on his face. Carefully, Filia breathed in and out, trying to sort out her thoughts…. she had teleported… the words kept on repeating in her mind, however, when she found her voice, all she said was, "I'm alright.… I…. my hands slipped from the rope, that's all.… I managed to land ok.… I'm fine, really."

~ - ~ - ~ - ~ - ~ (Later on that day. Right after class.… about to leave the school)

Filia stared into space as she walked out of the school, a cold rush of wind hitting her as she stepped outside, "How did I teleport?" she whispered to the wind as little kids ran around her, playing and minding their own business, "I don't understand.…" she wind circled her and seemed to whisper muffled words down her neck, making her shudder. The blond was all-too-aware of what it meant; If I can teleport.… then maybe I can do other things…

As she continued to walk absentmindedly, she thought she heard someone call her name from somewhere behind, therefore she turned and saw Xellos and Mitsy waving their arm frantically at her, looking rather frightened for some reason, "Huh? What?"

The purple haired boy's shout reached her suddenly, "Filia!! Watch it!! A TRUCK!!!" he bellowed, using his hands as a megaphone.

"A what?!" yelped the ex-dragon as she noticed she was now standing in the middle of the street. Her eyes widened when she saw a truck with grey and yellow patterns drawn on it come straight towards her, it was way too close now and impossible to evade, "Oh my God.…" she mumbled as her eyes went impossibly wide with fear.… and then, she felt someone ram into her side, hard, sending her flying to the other end of the street.

Filia gasped in pain as she hit the hard sidewalk, but she managed to look up to see who had pushed her out of the way… just in time to see Xellos standing where she had been seconds before, a serene expression on his face as he opened his eyes to stare at the truck, which was now merely two meters from him. Then everything turned into a blur of grey and yellow as the truck zoomed past her, blocking her view and not letting her see the purple haired boy anymore, "Xellos!!"
