Selena Anando Pts 3-5
Selena Anando pt. 3
…it’s 21 Kahl in Selena Anando at 4:30 pm, everyone is out in the town square-the parents, lovers, students and the old men playing chess in their second or third best suits drinking tea. The shadows from the slowly sinking sun slink into view and the living dead hide in it. The birds are gorging themselves at the feet of the chattering women wagging their tongues disapprovingly at the tongues wagging near the fountain. The clock strikes five, the birds come off and then come settling back. All is rather sleepy and quiet in tranquil normalcy when suddenly shots are heard echoing all around them, bouncing off the walls, mountains and alleys.
The teens huddle together and amidst “oh my lord’s” the women stand up and the men stare at the sky seeing the birds take off.
All at once, like one collective worried mind, the citizens of Selena Anando went to the police station which had already dispatched it’s armed mounts. They turned people away with slips of little white paper issued by the chief of police Celan Delvar stating that “…all that is known at this time is that shots were fired somewhere approximately in the First district and there is an investigation already underway. No known suspects but we will keep you as up to date as we can…”
The people in the First district tearfully took up arms, locked their doors and hid their children safely away inside and the whole town held it’s breath for news of the shooter.
Selena Anando Pt.4
Ariel Shalagar was walking home after mass in the first district near her home on the first day of Kahl and all was well. For some reason out of the corner of her eye she saw a flutter of unfamiliar red and turned to look curiously. It was a man that she had never seen before, he had the traditional long hair, but he also had a beard which was strange for someone that young to have one. Generally people middle-aged were accepted to have them, and he didn’t look quite that old. She cautiously got closer, and tried not to attract too much attention to herself. He smelled wonderful but it was something that she couldn’t put her finger on. He wore a dark-colored robe and strikingly there was a gold medallion hanging around his neck. It was a dragon, the sign of a shaman. Could this guy be a shaman? Only shamans wore real gold medallions. So she decided to follow him for a while.
He went to the coffeehouse on the corner of which she knew so well, ordered a small coffee, and sat down to read the local newspaper. He didn’t have any strange markings on his body, but it did seem to have a glow to it. Finally Ariel made up her mind to say “Hello”. Which she did and learned that his name was Rei Kahn, he used to live in the Fifth district which was a rich area but then moved away and hasn’t come back since he was little.
Rei was mysterious and so beautiful. He didn’t take his eyes off of her figure; she looked like most females in the town, short, brunette brown-eyed, nothing special really. She didn’t have make-up or had her hair up different, was dressed in an all white blouse and skirt down to her ankles. Nothing special but he just couldn’t take his eyes away.
The clock struck tow and Rei excused himself to leave. Ariel gently reached for his arm and asked “When shall I see you again?” “I don’t know” replied Rei simply and left Ariel in love with the air and his backside as he began the long walk somewhere possibly to the Fifth district.
The next day, after mass, she waited in the coffee shop for Rei, but he was not there. The day after he wasn’t at the town square, he was not to be found anywhere. In a town of 2,000 it’s surprising to have such a mystery.
Feeling desperate, Ariel began to resent having to go to the mass, for it only brought gilded ideals and plans and left empty, hollow truth and disappointment. Coming home, a week later after she first saw Rei, she caught sight of a red robe moving swiftly in front of her. She smiled and chased after Rei, the rascal! She caught up with him in the Second ward, a slum riddled with alleyways and dead ends. He turned around smiling at hearing her footsteps run his way. She, now slightly embarrassed leaned against one of the walls of the alley and averted his eyes looking at her. She smiled and looked at him and he moved in closer against her and she held him and it was magic at first sight.
Selena Anando Pt. 5
Ariel couldn’t believe that Rei was here again! He was so beautiful and it was hard just to take it all in at once, he really seemed to be from here, but definitely not of here.
He was close against her, she could hear him breathing softly. His dragon medallion touched her throat, it was a little cold. “10 pm tomorrow...” he whispered and stuffed a piece of yellow paper in her palm and left leaving her loving the air and his backside. Ariel was alone again. The clock struck 4:30 as she unfolded the paper gently, it read “Dear Ariel:
You are a vibrant young lady and have a true love for the lord. Meet me at the Fuente De Delmarre at 10pm tomorrow.
Love forever in him,
Rei ”
She was ecstatic! She could hardly sleep or sit still during the mass the next day, finally it was time and she tried not to make such a big deal out of it but was hard not to show it.
At the time, Ariel went to the softly lit Fuente De Delmarre in the town square; all was quiet because everyone was preparing to go to bed. The moon was high in the black nothingless, its pale face a sharp contrast to it. Ariel sat comfortably on the long edge of the fountain and tried to calm herself. The clock struck 9:30 and she realized she was early. Surprisingly, out of the shadows came Rei. He had on a dark red robe and the medallion glinted off the moonlight. Rei was as gorgeous as ever. Ariel tried her hardest to keep her feelings under the surface when she saw him. He walked slowly over and gently sat down on her left quietly. Somehow he knew to do that, Ariel kept the secret of her going deaf very well. Rei turned and faced Ariel, they smiled together and said “hello” simply and embraced awkwardly for a moment.
“There are some things you need to know…” Rei began “..I live in the Fifth district and I attend and underground church once a week…”
Ariel was stunned to learn this, he was basically admitting to being a fugitive and a rich one at that! She responded and said “ I live in the first ward and I go to mass often but not all the time…”
He was shocked to learn of her great poverty. She was still very pretty and he wondered if he could still love her and she wondered the same.
