Sinister Trap! The Mysterious City of Ghosts!

Sylphiel: ::gazes over the city:: Flagoon. The holy tree Flagoon, which supported our hearts... Gone...


Sylphiel: ::pops her head out of the hay wagon they're all hiding in:: This is...
Amelia: What is it?
Sylphiel: This isn't a newly built city! The city destroyed in the battle has been completely regenerated!


::gang follows her to a tree::
Sylphiel: Please look at this. When I was a little girl these marks were carved on the tree every year to show how I was growing. ::has a flashback of her memory as she hugs the tree:: This tree must have been destroyed in the battle. And yet, here it is, back again.


Sylphiel: ::stiffens as she hears someone speak her name:: It can't be... It can't! ::turns to see her father:: Father? ::runs into his arms, saying "Father" over and over again:: You're all right! I was sure when it happened that..!


::In Eruk's home, he explains what has happened::
Sylphiel: It can't be...
::Eruk places her hand over his chest::
Sylphiel: ::gasps:: Your heart... It isn't beating..!


::The group sneaks out at night::
Sylphiel: There may still be underground passages left over from when Flagoon was here.


::Lina separates herself from the group only to be surprised that Sylphiel has followed her::
Lina: Sylphiel?

Sylphiel: Miss Lina! Just where are you going?
::Lina stutters for an answer::
Sylphiel: You were going to Phibrizzo's temple alone, weren't you?
Lina: Uh, well... yea...
Sylphiel: I thought so. But you can't get inside, can you?
Lina: Well, not by normal means, but I figured my Ragna Blade might be able to cut through that warped space.
Sylphiel: Then you were always intending to fight him alone.
Lina: Look, I'm the reason Gourry was kidnapped. I don't want to put everyone else in danger anymore.
Sylphiel: But, we've--
Lina: Phibrizzo isn't like any of the enemies we've faced before! Kopii Rezo and Zanaffar don't even come close to him! I'm sorry but I'm the only one who has a chance against him. That's why I'm going alone.
Sylphiel: ::smiles:: Miss Amelia and Mister Zelgadis will be so angry when they find out about this.
Lina: If I come back alive, they can be as mad at me as they like! Anyway, that's the reason I can't let you come either--
Sylphiel: ::cuts her off:: Let me come with you! ::repeats it for Lina when she makes a noise of confusion::
Lina: Now hold it, Sylphiel!
Sylphiel: I can't forgive this. Not just for Gourry-sama, but for my father and all the people in Sairaag Phibrizzo is controlling! I know that none of them are alive but when my father welcomed me home like that before..! That day, when they were caught in the battle and killed... I thought it couldn't be true. ::turns to face Lina with tears rolling down her face though she is still smiling:: This just isn't fair. ::realizes she was crying:: Oh, oh I'm sorry. ::wipes them away:: Anyway, I can't let Phibrizzo torment the dead like this! I have to let him have it with all I've got!


Sylphiel: ::races with Lina to Phibrizzo's temple:: What will we do? Even if he releases Gourry-sama, if you perform that spell...!
::they discuss their problem of using the Giga Slave when a scythe is thrown at them and Lina knocks Sylphiel out of harm's way. Lina starts to blast their way free when a movement catches the corner of her eye and she slashes out at it with her dagger, only to see it's a small girl::
Lina: A... A little kid? I killed her...! I just... I just...
::Sylphiel hugs her tightly from behind as Lina begins to panic::

Sylphiel: No! No, you didn't! She was already dead! Dead for a long time! So you didn't do it! Do you understand me? You didn't do it! So, please...!
