Golden Sun: Between Sky and Ocean.

First multi chapter fic, after events in Lost Age, and releasing of Alchemy.

Most on Sheba's and Ivan's origins, and Anemos and Lemuria, the two Jupiter's and Mercury's clans (so Ivan, Sheba, Mia and Piers will have an important part in this story)

I own nothing from Golden Sun

Six months. It's been a while since Alchemy was released, and the youngs adepts returned to their home. Felix, Isaac, Garet and Jenna, of course, came back to Val, and began to rebuild the whole village. And they still rebuild it, in fact. Piers stayed here too, in order to spend a short time of his life with his friends. Sheba came back to Lalivero, as she said but she was all the time in Val, same with Mia who was supposed to return to Imil. Ivan didn't want to leave his closers (and first) friends, so he stayed in Val too.

Well, in fact, they all stayed in Val, so the journey could never end. During six months they lived together, until that day, when the sky and the ocean, began to fight.

Chapter One: Dream.

« All people need to have something to look forward to, a future. But what if this future is already decided? For those who can see it, where is the purpose...of life? » Hama, daughter of Anemos.

Weather : Sunny.

Rebuild : 54%

Mood : Well…variable?

« Will you please GET AWAY from here now…? » Isaac yelled on Garet.

« Calm down…he doesn't do anythi-… » He stopped. Felix looked the person he defended half second ago, and sighed.

« Forget it. »

A couple of seconds later, a Mars adept was running for his life. Why? Because he spoke too much. And because he manage to get a mysterious letter who seemed to have been write by his friend.

« Garet give me this Letter n-… »

Mute. Both of them were now silent and motionless, it was just petrification. Jenna, the young Mars adept and Felix's sister left her house. She opened the door, and…

« Guys? Are you…all right? »

« Y…yes…sure we just…training, yah training…on…a…don't moving training. » said Isaac.

That was weird, and most of all, one among them was unable to breathe, because he was…laughing.

« Hahaaaaahahaha don't…Haha don't moving training…Aha Haahahahaha »

He quickly collapsed on the ground, not sick but just…laughing. Isaac felt an irresistible desire to punch his friend, but Jenna noticed something else.

« Hey…your letter has fallen and… »

« Jenna! Behind You! »

« What? » she turned quickly.

The letter disappeared as fast as it has appeared, and Jenna looked at Isaac, disappointed.

« What was this? »

« Humm…you know there is…that tree over here and…well I was just…surprised. »

« Surprised? A Tree? » A lot of questions arise in her, it didn't make sense.

« Well…you know…um…oh yeah Ivan! I'm coming. See you later. »

« Aha Hahahahaha a tree! He will kill me, for sure he will kill me one day…Hahaha »

Jenna kept standing, what was THAT? One was laughing on the ground, and the other…had a stranger behaviour. And this letter - who just dissapeared - seemed to be somehow important for Isaac.

« I really…don't understand men. »

l***l

Several seconds later, near the Sanctum, two Jupiter adepts were training.

« Right, now use both lightning and wind. »

« Both? You're kidding Ivan, I can't melt wind and lightning. »

« I did it. So you'll do it to. »

« Yes, teacher. »

She smiled and began to concentrate, summoning both wind and lightning was a very difficult thing, even for the one who was the « teacher ». So he hoped she could do it as well. Wind became to blow, very stronger than a normal blast of wind, It turned around her, and when she tried to use lightning, wind disappeared.

« Failed. When I said it was impossible. »

« It IS possible. You just lose concentration, what's the matter? »

« No…nothing »

« Sheba, even without Mind Read you, I can tell something's wrong. »

« You couldn't Mind Read me even if you tried to. And nothing's wrong! »

« As you wish. But…if something is wrong now or later…I'm here. »

He couldn't Mind Read her, because her mind's power was in another level…but he didn't need to read her mind to know something was wrong with her. Their profile, mind, were really similar, it was like watching into a mirror, the same shade of hair, the same gaze, the same lonely childhood, and some sort of same blood, because they were both Anemos.

« I know it, Ivan. » she said softly.

« Hey, you're here… »

« Isaac? You weren't suppose to work for rebuilding with Felix? » asked Ivan

« Yes…hum…some reasons lead me here. »

« Jenna? »

The two Jupiter's adepts smiled, and the young leader blushed. No one could possibly lie to Mind Readers. Even the master of Alchemy himself.

« I hate this power… » said Isaac.

« You know, if you keep waiting, someone will get her before you. »

« I agree, Jenna is beautiful, and I think Piers and Garet are, or would be interested. » added Ivan

« You're not? »

« I would rather stay alive. »

« Anyway, Isaac, don't hesitate any more, or you will really lose her. » said Sheba

« Love lesson by Ivan and Sheba…I hope I will wake up soon… »

Hearing those two make a speech about love was really funny, Isaac thought, but excepted Felix (who would be the last one he will talk to) Piers, and perhaps Mia, none of the others had experienced love, at least, that was his supposition.

l***l

At the same time, two mercury adepts were helping in the village's Inn.

Mia became the healer she always wanted to be, and Piers planned to live in Vale for next fifty years, he had time. The main place of Vale was now complete, as it was before destruction.

During rebuilding, Mercury's power were used to stopped fire from…Mars adepts. They had destroy more than rebuild, not a good deal.

« Hey Piers, I always wonder, how old are you? »

« Ask to Ivan or Sheba, they can easily Mind Read me. »

« You know they would never do that, you can trust me right? »

« Don't try to make me guilty or something, that is a secret, everyone had his owns right? » He began to felt like a criminal, but he really wished to keep it as a secret.

« Okay, then we'll speak about another topic…you're looking for someone? » Mia asked with a smile.

« You really speak a lot today…Jenna has a bad influence upon you. »

Mia was known as a gentle, understanding and reserved girl, and that's the way she actually was. Perhaps Jenna, exciting and speakalotandneverstop-type, had really some influence upon her.

« Don't evade my question. »

« Okay, I'm not looking for someone, that's a bit complicated but…if I had to choose someone, it would be a Lemurian, I couldn't bare seeing my love and children dead before me…»

« … Sorry. »

« Don't need to apologize. And you? »

« Well…I am kind of…divided. » She suddenly seemed to be troubling.

That was the point, Mia brought the conversation to this because she had to speak to someone, and Piers was probably the most experienced and the less concerned.

l***l

Four hours after nightfall.

The day was over, and most of the adepts were sleeping. Ivan was on the Inn's roof; he had loved night since he was a child. Looking to the sky, the moon and stars, its recalled him he was not alone. Weird isn't it? Some people said Anemos, the great Jupiter's clan, was on the moon. He never believed it, but the moon was a peaceful thing, like night and shadows, if it was true, he just hoped he could see it one day.

« You're still awake? » asked a young adept. « Where is tho one who said « sleep is the best way to began a day? » »

« Something like that, yeah, but…I can't sleep tonight. »

« Why? »

« Wind is troubling, and Jupiter's djinnis too.»

« … » she didn't say anything, just pondered

« What about you Mia? »

The Mercury adept felt the same, Water was crying, and djinnis seemed to be affected as well. They were sad, really, as if they were heartbroken.

« Something like that, feeling like this night is…dangerous. »

Ivan nodded silently, and looked once more to the sky. Then, a falling star appeared through the night.

« Stars can grant your wish, some said. »

« If it was the case, world would have been destroy earlier. » Ivan answered.

« You don't have anything to lose. » she smiled in reply.

He looked at her face, in the night, she was more beautiful than ever. Her blue eyes like pure sapphire, filled with kindness and wisdom. Her soft and bright skin under moon's light, her long and beautiful hair, blue as the deepest of the ocean and her lips... Neither a siren nor an angel, she was even more beautiful. How such a girl could be in front of him now? How could she be…

« Ivan? »

« Ha! How, I…I wasn't listening… »

« I noticed, you didn't see the second falling star right? »

« A second falling star? »

« Yes, but coming from east to west »

The first was falling west to east…strange.

l*l

Same time, in Vale's Inn, in the fifth room.

Odd.

Breathe a sort of nurse-djinn, was really troubling, he never stopped to came forth and back, flying in the room. Others were like that too, but breathe used to be a really quiet djinn.

« Breathe? What's happen? »

She had no answer, and the others kept mute too. Most of all, there was this bad feeling who followed her since afternoon.

However Sheba was not brave enough to keep standing, she was half asleep, so she just collapsed in the bed.
