OVER THE SEA

Ian was in chains, unable to move. Halloween was listing him things that he should have not done: to lose against Ginta, to waste a Holy ÄRM, to demonstrate to be a useless Rook.
Ian didn't want to justify himself, he knew that he would have punished and he hadn't nothing to say, he accepted his fate, with passivity. Yet that bastard Halloween obviously couldn't be satisfied to hurt Ian, since he wouldn't have really punished him if he wouldn't have touched him in the depth.

He knew that Gido, the Pawn that had been with him, was the person he loved and he wished to protect, so why not to take advantage of this fact and punish Ian by hurting her? When Ian realized that Halloween would have gone and sorted it out with his loved one, he drove crazy and tried to wriggle out, telling him to fuck off, as he deserved, and threatening him with the promise of killing him if he'd have laid a finger on her, but Halloween was really crappy, and obviously, rather than desist from his mean purpose, he warned the boy to get ready, because he only needed to choose the hit man to command: Candice, Veezle or Chimera; one of the three of them would have hurt Gido.
Ian recalled when he had become a Rook, rising of level, and the girl had congratulated him. They shared the dream of cleaning up MÄR heaven and make Phantom rise again, in order to fight by his side, doing their very best. “ I love you, Ian ” had been the last words f the girl, that remained engraved on the desperate Ian, that screamed and was consumed with pain, as he knew that he wasn't able to do anything to save her.

While Ian was living this cruel situation, the MÄR were crossing the ocean on Ed's Flying Carpet, and the usual, over-excited Ginta, found even the rolling of the carpet funny. Ed looked at Dorothy, doubtfully. The witch had a bad reputation, she came from Kaldea , the Country of the Wizards, that was to the north-east of Lestava, and she was renowned as a thief and a collector of ÄRMs
It was unusual for a wizard to depart from Kaldea, but Dorothy was travelling peacefully on her broom, which was the true objective of the girl? Ginta was thinking about what she said the first time they met, that is it had something to do with a secret, and while he was thinking over it, the carpet suddenly crashed, stuck by the lances of a proper army of armed men.
The MÄR were safe and sound, no one of them was hurt. But Ginta was into a rage, who on the Earth could have done something like that? This question was answered by a beautiful, mysterious and wonderful boy with long blond hair, that approached threateningly the ours, calling on them that the moment of the judgement had arrived, and that they would have reap what they had sown.
