“Oh, so that’s how it happened,” said Amelia, after Zelgadis had finished explaining to her how he came to be a chimera and join up with Lina and Gourry.
“Yes,” Zelgadis said, weary from having to explain the situation.
“Well, I think what happened to you is just terrible!” Amelia declared standing up and pumping her fist. “I just want to let you know that in the name of Justice, I, Amelia Wil Tesla Seyruun, will not rest until I’ve helped you complete your quest.”
“Yeah,” Zelgadis said, unused to typical Amelia behavior. “That’s not really necessary.”
“Oh no,” Amelia said. “It is my mission from heaven. It was fate that brought us together.”
“No,” Zelgadis said, frustration rising. “It was a bounty set by a disgruntled servant of a crazy priest who liked to summon dark lords.”
“Aha,” Amelia said. “That’s what it looked like, but it was really fate in a clever disguise.”
“Whatever, Justice girl,” Zelgadis snapped. “The point is, I don’t need your help.”
Amelia paused, looking deflated. “Oh,” she said.
She put her hands in her pockets and sat down looking disheartened. Zelgadis gave her that freaked out “you’re not going to cry, are you?” look, but he felt an unpleasant twinge of guilt all the same. Maybe he’d been too harsh, after all, this girl seemed nice and she was just trying to help, even if she was a little too… peppy about it.
“I’m sorry I called you creepy and suspicious looking,” Amelia said meekly after awhile.
“That’s okay,” Zelgadis said, leaning against a tree and collapsing to the ground. “I know I am.”
“No,” Amelia protested. “You’re really not. I was wrong.”
“Yes,” Zelgadis said, weary from having to explain the situation.
