Mez: Although this is posted in my name, Jana11015 was the main source of idea's. I just typed and did the spelling.
Jana: So if you have a problem with spelling, talk to her; the critic of everyone else's spelling.
Mez: Not my fault. Your (OLD!) computer hasn't got a spell check.
Jana: That means you rely on the spell checker all the time! You had to look up 'rely'! (Evil Mithos laugh)
Mez: Well, I don't think the readers want to listen to this for much longer...So we need a disclaimer!
Jana & Mez: (summon muses; Kira and Jingo)
Mez: One of you do a disclaimer.
Jingo & Kira : (Points at each other) You can do it!
Jana: Jingo, disclaimer, or the Kratos doll gets it!
Jingo: I think Kira was right to put mini-Yuan in a very high security place. (sigh) Mez10000 and Jana-Yggdrasil does not own Tales Of Symphonia or Namco.
"Lloyd are you okay?" Genis was concerned for his human friend.
Lately, Lloyd had been looking pale, and from what Colette and Genis had heard when Lloyd was alone, he'd started talking to himself.
"I...I...I'm fine Genis!" He snapped guiltily, only confirming whatever suspicions the half-elf had.
Colette spoke up rather timidly. "You have been acting a little weird an..."
"I said 'I'm fine!'" Lloyd stormed off, deep into the shadow depths of the cavern which the friends had been exploring.
"Lloyd!" Genis shouted into the gloom.
"Lloyd has been acting weird lately. What is wrong with him?" Colette looked worried.
The three heroes were down a cave just west of Palmacosta. They had been repairing Palamacosta, and had just had a small break from the work.
"Why don't we get back to Palamacosta and help repairs again." Genis suggested.
"But we can't just leave Lloyd down here."
"Leave him be. It's not exactly as if he can't look after himself. He probably just needs some time alone."
"Well, the people do need us to help with repairs..." Colette looked torn. "Okay, we'll come back after a little while."
Genis and Colette went out, as they said, to help repair Palmacosta.
Meanwhile, Lloyd was lost.
"Guys? Help me? Please? Look, I'm sorry, I…" Then he noticed a slight echo. "Cool, there's an echo!"
"Echo, echo..." The walls seemed to speak.
"Hello? Are you guys up there?" Lloyd asked into the darkness.
Suddenly Lloyd heard a loud rumbling. The ceiling started to fall...
Up above, Genis and Colette had run into some weak monsters.
"Pancake time, Dreaded Wave!" Genis cast.
However, the localised earthquake was directly above Lloyd.
A crack in the ground appeared, but Genis didn't think anything of it. He just thought it was the after-effects of his attack. Lloyd crawled out of the crack, covered in earth and extremely annoyed. Luckily for Genis, Lloyd's legs were trapped.
"You...you failed Chosen and you traitor!" Lloyd shouted angrily, then pulled his legs free and ran.
"What are you...talking about?" Genis was shocked by Lloyd's words and actions.
Lloyd ran to Palmacosta.
"Reduce these evil souls to ashes, Judgment!" Lloyd cast. Devastating rays of light crashed into the newly built Palmacosta. Neil came out of the town hall.
"What are you doing? You helped to rebuild this city!" He shouted desperately.
Lloyd ignored Neil and laughed manically. After the city was completely destroyed, Lloyd fainted.
Colette and Genis were heading back to the city when they saw the destruction. Some houses were alight, sending plumes of black smoke into the air.
"What the- that looks like Judgment. But it's impossible! Who could have cast it?" Genis said disbelievingly.
"The city - it's being destroyed! Who could do such a thing!" Colette had an expression of worry on her face, for the city's citizens who were now suffering.
The two rushed towards the ruined city. When they entered, the first thing they saw was Neil.
"You're alright! Thank goodness!" Colette said.
"Neil, what happened here?" Genis asked.
"That friend of yours used magic to destroy the city!" Neil shouted.
"Who?" They said in unison.
"Lloyd." He said in a grave tone.
"But that's impossible! He's not capable of destroying a town. He just wouldn't do it. Besides, Lloyd can't use magic. And even if he could, it would use up too much of his body's mana!"
"That must be why he collapsed, then."
"Where is he now?" Colette was worried about Lloyd.
"He's in Clara's old cell. You don't need to worry."
"Can we see him?"
"Absolutely not! We know he's your friend. You're lucky you aren't in there with him." Neil spat.
"We aren't going to help him. We just want to know what-" Genis was cut off by a loud explosion from the direction of the town hall.
Lloyd came running out.
"You…you didn't do this, right? You didn't- you couldn't…" Colette's eyes were pleading, hoping it wasn't true.
Lloyd said nothing and ran away from Colette. She drew out her angel wings and flew, landing in front of him.
"Please, Lloyd. Stop this!"
"Hunting Beast!" Lloyd used, knocking Colette to the ground. He ran away, laughing as he went.
Genis ran over to Colette, who was now crying.
"Colette, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine." She choked out.
"You're crying." Genis was concerned.
"It's just...I can't believe he'd do that." Colette sobbed.
While Genis was left to comfort Colette, Lloyd had bigger plans. Lloyd had pulled out his wings and had started to fly towards Thoda Geyser.
Jana: Okay, please review. This is my first 'fic. Otherwise I will destroy you inferior beings. Muhahahahahahahahahahahahah!
Mez: Stop freaking out the reviewers! Keep your 'Mithos' personality inside!
Jana: I'm not going to submit to your inferior requests.
Mez: Right. And all flamers will be trapped with Jana for eternity. That's a fate worse than hell!
