This is my first fanfic so don't be afraid to point out the flaws in my story.
Disclaimer: I don't own Golden Sun. I'm only telling you this once. Now for the story.
Prolong
It was dark and rainy. The city behind him was bright as day but that was because so many people lived there. However he had to focus on the task at hand. The power plant that powered that city was going to chain react unless he got there soon. His cell phone started ringing.
"Kyle," the voice on the other end was frantic. "It's sabotage! If this plant blows it could take part of Vale with it!"
"What?" Kyle's jaw almost hit the ground. He was turning onto a side road that led to the plant. "The plant isn't nearly that powerful!"
"That's what I thought," the man on the other side agreed. "But when I check the depository records I found something interesting. Some one had been putting in to many psycrystals at a gradual rate. My guess is that he did it to increase the blast radius!"
"Do you know who it was?" Kyle asked in a low tone. He pulled into a parking lot and jumped out of his small red car. He saw the power plant looming over him. It's concrete and steel body seemed to cry out to him like it was in pain.
"Yeah," the man responded. "It was a man by the name of Alex."
"Wake up Felix!" a girl with auburn hair and amber eyes was shaking her brother. She wore a red skirt and a red shirt with a black leather jacket on over the top. "We have to leave!"
"Its not a work day, Jenna," he moaned. "So why are you getting me up this early?"
"Because the plant is going to chain react!" Jenna's voice was full of panic and fear. And if the power plant problem didn't get him out of bed the panic in her voice did.
"Alright," Felix sat up. He had been so tired from the previous days work that he'd passed out in his work clothes. He wore a simple brown shirt and brown pants that were a lighter shade then his dark brown hair and chocolate eyes. "Lets go."
He followed Jenna outside to see everyone panicking. Some of them were looting the now empty stores. Others were simply running around like chickens with their heads cut off. And piles of dead people lined the streets. Some were trampled and others were cut up.
"Give us your money!" A man walked up to them with a sword in hand. Two more flanked on either side of Jenna and himself. All three of them wore black clothes that were soaked due to the rain. "Now if you don't want to die!"
Garret rushed outside and to his horror found his neighbors house burning. It also happened to be where his best friend lived. He also saw the people who had set the house ablaze. His fiery orange eyes narrowed as he walked forward. He was tall and well built for his age. He wore a pair of blue jeans and his favorite black shirt that read: My parents don't need to know about this.
"Hey!" Garret shouted as he burst into a run. "What do you think your doing!"
"Burning the city!" the man in black cackled. "And there is nothing you can do about it!"
"The hell there isn't!" Garret shouted as he punched the man. He sprawled out on the ground unconscious. "That's it?"
He turned to the burning house. "Isaac, you in there!"
"C'mon mom!" Isaac shouted to be heard over the raging fire in his house. He kicked down the door to her room and raced in. He helped her walk over to the door he kicked down. "Can you walk?"
"I think so," she replied and started walking to the door that led to the outside and the chaos that had enveloped the city. It was so smoky that they had a hard time seeing where they were going but they eventually made it outside.
"Isaac!" Garret shouted his normally spiky hair was matted against his head due to the rain. "I was about to bust in and go get you!"
"We need to get my mom to one of the doctors at the shelter," Isaac said walking in the direction of the shelter. His blue jeans and blue shirt were scorched and his crystal blue eyes were full of worry and determination.
They were almost there when they saw Felix fighting three thugs. He punched one of them in the nose then grabbed him and threw him against one of his companions. Garret ran into the fray and punched the third thug. They all got up and pulled out knives.
"We told you to give us your money or you'd get hurt!" the lead thug tried to stab Felix but he side stepped out of the way. The thug stumbled and took a punch in the stomach from Felix effectively knocking the thug out. Felix glared at the two remaining thugs.
"I suggest you leave before you end up worse then this guy," Felix said in a tone that gave no room for argument. He turned to Garret and smiled for the briefest of moments. "Thanks."
"I couldn't sit by and watch an even fight," Garret said sarcastically.
"Isaac!" Jenna ran over and hugged him as Felix laughed at Garret's comment. "Your burnt! Are you alright!"
"I'm fine, Jenna," Isaac smiled. He was glad Jenna was worried about him. "Lets get to the shelter."
Jenna turned to leave then realized some thing was missing. She frantically searched all her pockets and when she couldn't find it she looked at her older brother. "Felix do you have my pendant?"
"No…" Felix shook his head. "Why? Don't you have it?"
"No," Jenna started crying. "I think one of those thugs ran off with it…"
Before anyone had a chance to say anything more Felix took off. "Take care of Jenna you two!" He shouted before disappearing into the sea of chaos known as Vale.
"Felix!" Jenna moved to follow him but was stopped by Isaac's hand on her shoulder. "Let me go! I have to follow him!"
Isaac shook his head and sighed. "We have to get to the shelter. I'm sure your parents are waiting for you there."
"Alright!" Kyle shouted over the bustle of workers running about trying to stop the power plant from leaving a crater on Weyard. "We need to cut the lines from extractors one, two, and three at a slow pace! If we try to cut it all at once we will have an overload!"
"Kyle!" A woman dressed in a light blue jumpsuit stepped up with a clipboard in her hand. "Extractor four is almost under control now!"
"How, Susan!" Kyle saw the look on her face just before she looked at the nearby wall. "John is shutting things down?"
"Without a psyenergy suit!" she broke down and started crying. "He's been down there too long already!"
"Kyle!" a technician steeped up with a two way radio in hand. "It's John."
"Kyle…" John was breathing hard. "I can't stop it…tell my wife and kids I love them…"
Kyle was about to answer when there was an explosion followed by static. "John! John! Answer me John! Damn it!"
"Extractor three is building energy!"
"Psyenergy levels at critical!"
"Extractor two isn't responding!"
"Coolant leaks in the condenser room!"
So this is how it ends…Kyle thought wryly. Nothing we can do except pray for a miracle.
"Extractor's are all red lining!"
"Thirty seconds to meltdown!"
"Sound the alarm in Vale!"
"Get everyone out of this area!" Kyle shouted over the blaring sirens. He might die but he'd try to save some people.
"Give it back to me now!" Felix had caught up to the two thugs in an old abandoned apartment. He was advancing toward them his face contorted in anger. If there was on thing he hated it was when people hurt his sister.
"G-give w-w-what back?" one of the thugs stuttered.
"The pendant you stole from my sister!" Felix roared. If they didn't give it back to him he'd probably beat them until they gave it back.
"W-we d-don't have it!" the other thug was trying to be brave. Felix spun around and hit the thug. Hard. The resounding crack from Felix's fist connecting to the second thug's jaw made the first thug back up a few steps.
"Now then," Felix smiled like a little kid does when they get what they wants as he walked over to the first thug. "Are you going to give it to me? Or do you want to end up like the other guy?"
"Here!" the thug held out his hand and in it was a pendant shaped like a dragon's head holding a ruby in its mouth. A silver chain connected with the silver dragon head. "Just don't hurt me!"
Felix turned to walk away when he saw a great white flash. It expanded out and started engulfing the city. The ground shook as the light came closer. The shaking got so bad that the building started to collapse. Felix ran to the door but a chunk of the ceiling fell down in front of the door. The white light came through the building. Felix ran from it but was soon overtake.
"What is this feeling?" He asked. He had felt it many times before. The ground beneath him seem to talk to him though he couldn't understand it. It started to tug at him. He followed where he was tugged where he saw a man with blue hair.
"Who dares intrude on my ascension!" the blue haired man's voice boomed. He wore only a tattered pair of shorts and his azure eyes were set in an icy glare.
"I don't know where I am," Felix replied. "If I'm not supposed to be here then point me in the direction of the exit."
"Fine!" the other man glowed and there was only darkness.
Jenna was crying at the shelter. She knew that Felix and her parents had been caught in the meltdown. "Its not fair…"
Isaac came back from where the water was distributed with a glass and handed to Jenna. She took it but didn't seem to notice he was there. He wished Garret was here right now. He'd run off to check the other shelters for his family. He sighed as he tried to figure out what to do. No body else had come to this shelter so for the moment they were alone. Dora had been taken to the hospital over night to make sure she was fine.
"Isaac…" Jenna said as she looked up at him. "What will you do now…?"
Isaac sat down next to Jenna and looked into her eyes to see that they were filled with sorrow and fear. "I'll take care of you," he replied as he pulled Jenna into a hug.
"Thank you, Isaac…" Jenna said before crying into his shoulder.
Two people stood over the rubble of the area hit by the power plant's meltdown. One had blue skin with blue hair and his shoulders were covered in scales. Strapped to his black pants was a sword that looked like it was made from gold. His red eyes searched the area.
"Saturos…" his companion stepped forward to stand next to him. Her skin was pale and she too had scales on her shoulders and red eyes. She had a scythe on her back and her blonde hair flowed freely in the wind. "There was nothing we could do."
"I know, Menardi," Saturos replied. "But…Wait! Do you feel it?"
"Feel what?" She closed her eyes and focused for a moment. "Where is that immense power coming from?"
"There," Saturos pointed a hand sticking up out of the rubble. It held a dragon head pendant with a ruby in it's mouth. Saturos rushed over and checked for a pulse. "He's alive!"
Hearing those two words Menardi ran over to see for herself. Finding one she gasped. "It has to be over two tons on top of this person…"
"I'm calling in a unit!" Saturos reached for his transmitter.
"For only one boy?"
"He has immense power…if we leave him here untreated he might become a magnet for psyenergy…"
"Unit five here."
"Code blue."
"Roger!"
In a time when psyenergy is used to power cities and monsters are made in laboratories something began to stir. Whether it was fate or a simple set of events set off in a chain reaction nobody could tell. But in the coming years Weyard would be tossed into the pits of chaos. Of the many only a few will step forward. And of the few one will alter the world to its very core.
A/N: This may seem a bit short but I'll try to make the other chapters longer. I'm not sure when I'll be able to update this but rest assured I WILL finish this. And on that note I'll see you boys and girls when I post the next chapter.
Don't hit your head on the way out.
