*Get Wise 33 & 34... the first Back-to-back episodes of Get Wise... ever!*
*at the Air Castle, late the same night*
Meow meow.
Orak, what's been bothering you?
*strumming
on his guitar, not paying attention.*
Orakio?
*plays
his guitar and sings* There´s a lady who´s sure all that
glitter is gold. And she´s buying a stairway to heaven.
... what the
hell are you doing?
*knocks on
the door* Hey Orak, turn down your Led Zeppelin!
*stops
playing the guitar*
*enters*
Thank you.
*sits
silent for a second* You know, nights are the hardest time for
me. It's the time when there is nobody to talk to. When there is
too much time to think.
Really now?
You don't sleep at night?
Sleep?
I hardly do that anymore.
Yeah. He
won't pet me anymore. He just kicks me off the bed.
You know...
you never did tell me why you lost your will to fight.
Long
story. Let's just say I lost my love.
I'm sorry
to hear that. I know the feeling.
Oh?
You know
Lano, right?
How
could I not? He just stole my brother.
Well...
Lano and I were engaged to be married. Then one day, he went on a
mad crusade for power. Eventually he became Captain of the Blue
Coat Squad.
Engaged?
After
Master Rulakir made him the captain, Lano became heartless. Only
talking about battle. It was as if my voice didn't matter.
Why
were you still with him then?
Master
Rulakir ordered Lano, myself, and his new lover Sari to come here
to find you. I didn't care for Sari too much. She stole my man...
but, I never felt angry.
...
Lano is
happy now. I guess I gotta live with that.
*sighs*
Heartbreak sucks doesn't it?
Yeah... but
I'm sure I'll find something again. Besides... Lano wasn't that
great of a lover if you know what I mean *nudges Orakio*
???
!!! Yeah, I know.
But listen
to me Orakio. There is possibility that you might need more
training from Master Rulakir. Draco is a tough cookie to defeat.
I've
stopped believing in strength to win battles. All it's done is
cause me pain. Trying to become stronger than the next person.
It's not worth it.
I admire
that in you Orakio... you don't believe in strength. At least not
anymore.
My
strength has failed. I defeated many enemies, but when I really
needed my power, it wasn't there.
But...
won't we need it against Draco? Your untapped power is amazing.
That
is why I'm hoping King Ali will help us out.
