漫長夜幕散去，大地曙光照進山上的缺口內，打在石堆空隙中，直達深處廢墟中。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHoVpICuGP

「嗯……」微弱陽光照射如活屍般的男生的臉龐上，輕輕把他從昏迷中喚醒過來。用力拔出掩埋在石堆中的手，擦拭前額，讓乾涸的血流沾在白銀手甲上，連帶著絲毫深刻又帶點新鮮的痛感。他忍著痛楚，瞳孔遊走四方遍地的瓦礫，只憶起那時他的確在廣間上方某個突出的小平臺上，看到一個陰暗輪廓，閃爍著血光般的雙瞳瞪視他，挑釁他，剎那間理智就幾乎要消失殆盡，不斷向身體泛出排除對方的指令。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡineJwLaxmP

「阿爾法……」思考間，他聽見一把熟悉的女聲，在某處呼喚他，於是他往左方一看，赫然發現前方瓦礫下壓著的竟然是貝塔，她伸直右手，指尖剛好握著他的披風，緊閉雙眼低聲呻吟著。所幸落石剛好在地面留下一個空隙，她才不至於被重力壓碎盆骨。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNdqUY2YLa

513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwD5M1iYIW
見狀，阿爾法隨即上前把她從瓦礫堆中拉出，再次俯身讓她靠在胸前。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFn5f3MzPBl

513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMWOZnhVgn
「……阿爾法，你沒事吧？」貝塔微微睜開雙眼，只見陽光柔和照在阿爾法的鎧甲上；俯首一看，又見那目無表情的臉孔，稍帶迷思地瞪著她。至此她總算稍稍放下心結，至少她還是能夠親眼看到他，親手觸摸到他。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMKp38khc6

「你受傷了？」對望間她很快便發現阿爾法頭上的傷口，用手輕輕擦去阿爾法額上乾涸的血跡，輕輕伸出舌頭舔過沾染手上乾涸的血液。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQY8JOkekY

血液那種細膩的甘味久未消散，配以遐想不禁讓臉蛋充血起來。認知無法解釋當下那感覺，惟她深知，只要能一直倚在阿爾法身旁，這心靈才願罷休。然而，她腦裡這時又眨過另一些片段，跟當下這個畫面互相衝突的回想……從初次見面時刀刃相向，至如今倚在他懷裡，靜待時間流逝，與他相處的回憶引起迴盪，反思這緣份也許由使命而生。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGJIYkz8eZ

男性聲線雖然微弱，卻足以挑起阿爾法注意。他隨即站立起來，拔起長劍警戒四方。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl6udPQ7IU

「怎麼了阿爾法……嗚！」然而，他聽到貝塔的聲線，回頭一看，猛然看到她持著小刀捂住滿是鮮血的左手臂，便收起攻擊態勢，邊戒備邊向傷口唸起法咒。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUlzaEGs9I

「那股氣息……消失了？」阿爾法無暇回應貝塔，只知道那不祥氣息趁他回望貝塔之際突如消失得無影無蹤。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxJ6yb6LeO

這次，貝塔總算成功喚回阿爾法的注意力。剛好收起法陣的他隨即又跌坐地上，擺出一副疲憊倦容仰望著貝塔的臉孔。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfIov7jEwD

「如果這一刻可以一直延續下去，那會是多麼美好。可惜，我恐怕……」意識逐漸被四周空氣侵蝕得迷糊，陷入沉睡的他亦變成輪廓，漸漸矇朧……513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTLwOu8Wom

那邊廂，懷著對男女們僅餘的一絲希望，伊咘西萊緊隨著派恩和柔伊，踏入那泛著藍光的礦坑中。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggxogmoszw

走進遺跡洞穴裏，內部牆壁都是裂痕，部分建構更崩塌下來，阻擋在通道旁邊，四處顯得面目全非。派恩途中不時停下腳步，撿起石頭和碎片仔細觀察，又拿起尺子到處量度，寫在筆記本上，沒一會兒紙張上已經充滿了文字和數式。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9LDsjoivC

513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUSBzzbYB4
沿著記憶走著走著，三人終於來到事發現場，只見一塊巨石卡在洞口前，完全擋住了去路。派恩走到巨石前，耳朵貼在石頭間的縫隙探聽後方動靜，然而回應他的就只有氣流打在石頭上的微弱振音。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTMgVvIz38

「阿爾法……我會好好照顧自己的。」伊咘西萊雙手合十，顫抖地在一旁喃喃自語道。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nGZkgD6D9

513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BKcDRReb1
「等等，附近好像有誰的氣息。」柔伊此話說起，又讓伊咘西萊再度想起那個情境，那時阿爾法就是因為感受到有誰在附近，於是引發這場意外；與此同時，他卻相信那股氣息也許會是阿爾法和貝塔的氣息，這何嘗不是他倆仍然生存的證據……這暇想彷如一個小小慰藉，又讓他稍為冷靜下來。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSlDhXzYgJ

「貝塔小姐！本大爺這就來救你！」在派恩剛好要往後退下來之際，突然傳出一把輕佻的聲線，之後一個帶刺針的溜溜球旋即從他後方飛出，徑直飛向大石。「砰隆」一陣巨響過後，只見溜溜球陷進大石中，在其粗糙表面上產生數道裂痕。裂痕逐漸伸展，最後裂成碎片四散。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCTZbliCzi

「克西！你怎會來到這裡？」派恩萬萬沒想到室友克西居然跟蹤他們一直來到這裡，這時他大概也想到這位怪胎究竟怎樣跟上他們三人了。「……我想我回去一定要好好檢查一下魔旅者指針有沒有故障。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGTz9FHFRn

克西並沒有回答，他悠然扯開溜溜球，讓滿佈裂縫的大石爆裂，瓦解成石粒散滿一地。他一把收起高速迴轉的小球，轉身躍到派恩面前說道：513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO16jPqf4W

「嘖嘖，你這玩意，隨便按按就好了，根本就考不起本大爺！」說罷，他正想一個箭步上前救助貝塔，可是派恩隨即對柔伊打了個眼色，識趣的柔伊便隨即猛力扯著他的衣服，把他拖到後方，不讓他再靠近一步。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBP2WL7UHoe

接過派恩手上的鋼筆，伊咘西萊徐徐接近前方石堆，外界光線從頂部一個小孔透入，照射著石堆中那一對少男少女。只見他倆牽著手緊靠一起，雙雙陷入沉睡之中。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK7oFMqkQC

513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5cZ5W2Tp9
「阿爾法，貝塔，是我啊，伊咘西萊啊！」伊咘西萊不顧危險，振翅飛到石堆上。好不容易來到他們跟前，他便跪在地上，帶泣叫喊著兩人的名字。他又把鋼筆插在兩人跟前的石縫上，盼其力量能保護兩人的生命不再受侵蝕，儘管他知道現在這樣做也許已經太遲。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyHwm1k4bt

在下方目睹此一幕的派恩和柔伊，都不禁為之而鼻酸，靜默目守著如此一幕；而一向不甚正經的克西在這刻也收起一貫嬉皮笑臉，他待在兩人後方，不吭一聲便從口袋取出一副撲克牌，並純熟地切過牌，低語道：513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtfWylpx0y
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTy9VPrYqO
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpFsPtArcZ
「但我不相信這個會是他們的命運。」他從中抽出五張牌，翻開一看，果不其然，四種花紋的皇牌聚首一堂，夾著一隻詐欺師模樣的卡牌，彷彿指向石堆上半躺的男女。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6AAi1yC5B

「阿爾法……」這邊廂伊咘西萊低下頭一直哽咽，沒有注意投射在身上的倒影正逐漸拉長，陽光下那閃耀銀光的手輕撫光環下凌亂的頭髮，安慰著那碎裂的小心靈。頭顱突如感覺到重壓，使得伊咘西萊抬起頭，只見光柱之下那副熟悉的臉孔，如奇蹟般再度出現於眼前。
