I Stood there for, who knows how long. My mind began to wonder and i started to fall in and out of sleep. I was soo tired, Two fights with Le Suxube, a tornament to watch Ximh get beaten and bloodied, then trying to patch up him ANd of course rescue my group. It had been a long day i needed rest. I sat down and rested against the door frame... I don't remeber when i feel asleep or for how long, but i was awakened by the forming of a porthole, i should NEVER had fallen asleep i was ment to protect Ximh... I was hopeless.
I got to my feet quiker then the porthole took to open and out stepped that guy. The one that had SOME conection to Raxi. As he stepped out of the porthole all my attention focused on him.
"It's you..." I mumbled, he began to take steps toward Ximh but i yelled at him. "Wait...don't go any closer!" i tried my hardest to keep the painc out of my voice, i knew he was much stronger then me, but i had to protect Ximh, even if it ment fading away... he'd most likely do the same to me.
Then Modi's voice came through and forced me to step aside. I did as he said but kept my eyes on This stranger, i didn't know whether i should trust him or not.
He walked over to the porthole and examined it, then shortly asked for a peice of a chair. how he had known it was originally a chair i would never know. Then in a sudden burst of light the sheild broke.
"OH MY GOD!XIMH!!" i tried to rush forward but Modi was ahead of me and grabbed the front of the stranger, and had blocked my path to Ximh.
"What the hell did you do Verex?!"
"Do you mind? I don't have much time... Unless you want him to die..."
At that we both stepped back from VEREX... he inject what i could only guess was the antidote into XImh.
"A few minutes time...he should be fine. Now then, I'll be off now." he said and then left.
I stood with Modi at the door looking at Ximh. then he moved forward and picked his twin up and placed him on his bed, standing over him as if he couldn't stand seeing Ximh in such a vunerable state.
"I'll leave you two alone... i'll be just outside the door. Stay as long as you want i won't let anyone disturbe you." I said and reached into the room to close the door. but before i could close it Modi said something under his breath, i didn't quite catch it but then again i didn't really want to hear it.
Ximh was going to be okay, that was all i wanted to know. I stayed outside the door gaurding it, for what seemed to be hours. I don't know why i conitinued to stand there, Ximh had woken up already and Modi had left. It wasn't right to listen into their conversation so i had closed off my ears to their voices.
I turned to face the door, Ximh was alone now... I could tell him how sorry i was for what i did, but i just couldn't bring my self to touch the handle. Then i stood there staring at the door knob the door opened.
I lifted my gaze only enough to see Ximh's chest, he had decided to come out, or something.... I stood glued to the spot, my jaw rattled as all the words i wanted to say came to my head in a blur so face the words couldn't come out.
After a little while i realized i was standing, blocking the door way.
"I'm in your way, please excuse me." i turned to the right side of the wall and placed my back against it as much as i could. If it was possible i would have melded into the wall i was braced against it that much. If Ximh wanted to get go anywhere he had to go Left. My room was a few rooms to the right of his, even though my room was soo close i couldn't help but stay perfectly still, looking at my feet.
Ximh took one step out of his room and stopped. I braced myself expecting anything. If he turned and hit me, i could never say i didn't deserve it. I had nerley killed him and if he wanted to curse me, yell at me, hit me ai would stand here and take it for it was no less then what i deserved.
