Scara sat on the edge of the waters of Gran Pulse, staring down at Lightning. She had exhausted herself...against her...and Carsa had sealed her white magick in punishment for not letting her kill Lightning. Lightnign was too weak to use her own white magick - so Scara was stuck nursing Lightning, having finished the rest of her bandaging.
"Lightning I'm so sorry..." Scara whispered at the woman's head on her lap. The woman fluttered her eyes opened, smiling a little. "It's okay." She said as Scara looked at her, her tears brimming with new tears. She had done this. If only she were stronger...Scara shook her head. It wasn't the time to be crying - she had already done so.
Lightning's eyes closed again as Scara blinked, trying to blink the tears out. She felt a claw touch her right shoulder as she looked at it, seeing Vento's face appear, looking at her. "Mmm...it seems like you are finally in control. I have failed you as your guardian in being unable to stop her." Vento mumbled as Scara raised a hand and placed it on his snout.
"It's alright." She said as Vento lowered himself, his head just barely touching her thigh. "I haven't heard you sing in a very long time." Scara blinked, shocked at the request. She looked down at Vento, who only had one eye open and was looking at her. "Could you sing for an old dragon like me?" He snorted, sarcastic about the old part.
Scara looked down at Lightning. She appeared to be asleep as she looked at Vento, both eyes closed. She sighed lightly. She gave in. Scara thought of the song she had in her mind from the Songstress Dressphere as Scara closed her eyes and started. Her voice was soft at first, but as she got into the song, she got slightly louder. Scara loved to sing.
There may not be an answer to this too
Why the sky is blue, is the change in me all true?
Now that you are next to me, I have no fears and all I know is that
I want to be with you
Sometimes it's easy to forget the times we weep
The moment makes us weak
And though the shame I see
Memories exist for all the precious days my heart still wants to keep
Someewhere, deep inside of me
A lullaby for you
Don't you worry baby, I'll be here by your side
May tomorrow be wonderful too
Close to you I hope to stay
Endlessly from today
Even through cloudy days
You are not alone
Sweet dreams I do not see
'Cause darkness scares me
Is it because I'm still fifteen?
Or the loneliness in me?
Wish I may, I wish I might sleep
Tell me through the windy night
Just to dream of you tonight
A lullaby for you
Stars will always gracefully watch over 'til it's bright
May tomorrow be wonderful too
Take my hand and promise me that we'll be alright
Finding a place to feel at home
You are not alone
Baby I'll turn back to stay
Where I came from lonely yesterday
___ the past is gone eternally
A lullaby for you
Don't you worry baby, I'll be here by your side
May tomorrow be wonderful too
Close to you I hope to stay
Endlessly from today
Even through cloudy days
You are not alone
You are not alone
Her song ended as Scara didn't realize that she closed her eyes until she opened them, looking at Vento. She was shocked to see him gone, though feel the warmth of him still on her thigh. She however could see the wind currents that made up his form still there. So, he released his image as she smiled. He was at peace at last, it seemed.
"That was a pretty song." shock filtered though Scara as she looked down at Lightning, making sure that it was her that spoke and that Vento hadn't suddenly gotten a feminine voice as she saw her eyes staring up at hers, smiling. "I-I'm sorry...did I wake you?" Scara said, blushing slightly having been caught singing by her.
Lightning nodded slightly. "AS a soldier, I am a light sleeper. Though, I liked how I woke up." This only caused Scara's cheeks to burn brighter. The warmth was gone as Scara looked next to her. the wind currents that made up of Vento was gone. He decided to leave the two girls here by themselves as Scara looked back at her. "You need more rest."
"Lightning I'm so sorry..." Scara whispered at the woman's head on her lap. The woman fluttered her eyes opened, smiling a little. "It's okay."
