A/N: Yes. I'm back. All it took was 40 hours of Tales of Symphonia play-time, and accidentally ending up with Sheena in my attempts to avoid Regal again.

But hey.

I'm back, aren't I?

This chapter was written with the help of the perfect Shelloyd song : Hey - Honest Bob And The Factory-To-Dealer Incentives.

Lloyd walked slowly away from his mother's gravestone, absent-mindedly petting Noishe as he walked over to Sheena.

Lloyd smiled in his usual fashion, "Ready to go!"

"Of course I am!" Sheena energetically replied, hefting up her sleeping bag.

"Alright. I need to get my sleeping bag. Okay?"

"Sure! Go ahead."

Lloyd went inside as Sheena stood outside, looking around at the forest.

Dirk went up to Lloyd as he was about to dash up the stairs

"Lloyd!" Dirk yelled, trying to get Lloyd to stop.

Lloyd, visibly surprised, nearly stumbled, grabbed the banister and turned around, "Yeah?"

"You're going around the world with that Sheena, right?"

"Yeah. Me, her, and Noishe."

"Lloyd. I think I need to give you a talk."

"About?"

"Well..."

Sheena watched as Lloyd walked awkwardly out of the house.

She walked up to him, "You got it?"

"Yeah, that and 10 minutes of the most awkward conversation I've ever had."

"O... kay?"

"Anyway," Lloyd perked up, "We both ready now?"

"I was ready before you, and you had way more time to prepare then me," She said jokingly, "But yeah, I'm ready."

"Then we're off!"

Lloyd carefully walked over the logs that went over the river seperating his house from the forest and went out into the field, with Sheena close behind.

Lloyd's cheerful mood quickly changed into disbelief as he tried opening the Wing Pack, only to find that they had only been given one Rheiard.

Sheena got on the Rheiard and started it up, "We can share it. Get on."

Lloyd slowly climbed on, "Shouldn't I fly?"

"If you want to."

They both hopped off, and hopped back on, in eachother's positions.

Lloyd started the Rheiard back up and they flew around for a little bit

"So," Sheena asked, "Where should we start?"

"Well, did we tell the Renegades to collect their exspheres?

"I don't remember telling them."

"Then, let's go the their base!"

"Right, let's g- AHHHHH!" Sheena started to fall off the Rheiard, but grabbed onto Lloyd and clung to him.

Lloyd's face got a light red coat as he looked back and made sure that Sheena was stable again.

"You know," Lloyd said, his face still red, "You can let go at any time."

"Oh," Sheena's face became slightly redder then Lloyd's, "Sorry!" She let her grip around him go as they flew over to the Renegade's base on Sylvarant's side of the planet.

So, yeah. That's the short first chapter, and most of my friends on AIM didn't seem to approve of me writing again.

Oddjobbob705 (12:12:14 AM): So, I'm re-entering the dark world of fanfiction.

name censored (12:12:23 AM): uhoh.

name censored (12:12:26 AM): GET AWAY FROM IT.

Anyway, hopefully this story will become better as time goes on, but for now, this is my quite unfunny intro.
