If You Want To Bring Him Back

Disclaimer: I don't own Tales of Symphonia, but I do own the Sheena trilogy.

A/N: Hello, all and welcome--

Rubyi: That cure was a long thing to write, "If You Want To Bring Him Back". It took you so long. And, I mean…you have to write that fr every single chapter because of your way of setting th before-chapter part up!

Singe: Horrible writing, really, on your part.

TimesHalt: …What the hell.

A/N: Those were Singe and Rubyi, of The Court Case, the second part of the Sheena trilogy. They--

Rubyi: Singe is a writer, and I'm a doctor.

Singe: And I guess we're muses now, too. Thanks to you.

Rubyi: Me? I wasn't the one who said "Horrible writing, really, on your part." So THERE.

A/N: Yes, I finally have some muses. How fun. Anyways.

Rubyi: Don't you undermine me! Punches

TimesHalt: Aren't you supposed to slap…?

Rubyi: Oh yeah, I forgot! Slaps

A/N: Ow…okay, well here is the thing. This is the direct sequel to Sheena: Tales of Summoning, but I am trying a much different format on it. First off, it's a crossover, but don't let this drive you away. Some crossovers can be quite good if done right. And some and be quite crappy. This hopefully won't be the latter. But anyways, I am also trying to make this so the reader won't have to read the past two stories., though to get the whole back story and themes that run in IYWTBHB, it's best to read the past two. It's not necessary, though. (Warning: Contains HUGE Spoilers for the past two stories, and some of Chrono Trigger as well.)

Rubyi: One story stars me.

A/N: Yeah. Right…Anyways, the reader won't have to read the two past ones, because I have found out some people are lazy, whether it be clicking the back button on whatever browser you have, or just moving the mouse. Or reading. Which is kind of ironic, if you're lazy to read, but you're reading this. P But anyway, we'll just see how the first chapter goes. Also, the Summon Spirits have genders in this, so remember that.

Rubyi: After this very long A/N.

Singe: Oh, shut up.

Rubyi: Hey! What the--

Singe: Okay, time to be quiet now.

(Rubyi :..It is a little offensive to the readers…sweatdrop)

It had been such a long time since she had last seen him. So long since she last fought with him, called him an idiot, got in a fight with him. She didn't realize how truly precious that time was until it was all gone. It was over. He was dead. And without him, she was as well.

The female ninja sat in her house in Mizuho. Being Chief had its perks, but nothing was too exciting since most of the battles were over. Some monsters still roamed the land, and there were rumors of a man named Oshitm on the loose. She had seen him once, and his looks were identical to that of Mithos'. He was powerful, but he lay dormant for now, most likely unaware that Mizuho's top spies were tracking his every move.

Sheena Fujibayashi wasn't all that depressed, however. She showed scars of Zelos' death, but she knew she could live--he wanted her to. She knew that it was tough, after all, she had already being trialed for his death, and remained innocent. Sheena wanted him to be there still, but it was not so.

Universa suddenly appeared at her side. Shutting the door, he knew it was time. Sheena was a bit surprised--she had expected this, but at the same time had not. He had to tell her something. And she would listen.

Universa was the last Summon Spirit Sheena acquired on her journey to Derris-Kharlan, where Zelos died. He always wore heavy armor, and looked very human-like. He had some nice features here and there, but what was more important was that…

Universa loved Sheena. He soon discovered this while he was courting the Summon Spirit of the Sky, Raise, another Summon Spirit Sheena had just gotten. Raise was a female, and had dated Universa for a bit before he discovered this. She soon lost her love for him after this discovery and had a complete change in character. She usually does not speak to him often, and the conversations between the two were often statements more or less thrown back to each other, Raise often begin darker than she should have been, or being sarcastic. She is not a bad Summon Spirit, but she cannot forgive Universa as of now.

Sheena now waited for him to talk. He hesitated. She looked at him, and he began to speak.

"…Do you remember when there was something I had to tell you?" Universa looked at her, hiding his emotions, which he did quite a lot.

"Yeah." Sheena nodded, "You said it had to wait after the case…the one that trialed me for killing Zelos."

"Yes…" Universa nodded. Zelos had died up on Derris-Kharlan, by the hands of Kuchinawa. In turn, however, Sheena prevailed over him, killing him once and for all. Zelos was too late to save…and Sheena felt horrible. She was soon trialed with the accusation of killing the Chosen of Tethe'alla by none other than Zelos' sister, and her team of lawyers/maids, the Redjewels. Sheena had retaliated by having a great fencer, Crimsonia, as her lawyer. Crimsonia helped for two reasons. One was for repaying Sheena for saving a child, and the other was for repaying a debt she owed to Raine Sage, as the woman had encountered her before. Universa was thinking too much. He needed to continue.

"What about it?" the female ninja asked, curious of what he had to say.

"Well then." Universa cleared his throat, "There may be a way to bring him…Zelos…back."

"What!" Sheena yelled, surprising Universa, as well as the people outside of her house.

"There is a world beyond here. The world of…Chrono Trigger."

"Why didn't you tell me this earlier!" The ninja screamed at him, "We could have brought him back on the spot! Right then and there!"

"You were in a delicate mental state! Additionally, if we had just got up and left when the case occurred, you would be trialed anyways! Nobody would know if he was the real Zelos, and your mental state was not nearly as stable as it is now!" Universa clamed himself, "Please try to understand, Sheena. You see, you were not stable. You hid it, but you broke down a few times. I know you are strong now, and I know you can prevail."

"…So can we go there?" Sheena replied, trailing away from the subject, "To this Chrono Trigger world?"

"Yes." Universa replied, "But I must warn you. It is extremely dangerous alone. And there are legends there of a boy and a girl, a peasant and a princess, who reside there. These people…they may be able to help us. I have heard that they live in a town called Truce. We may be able to convince them to join us."

"Okay, so then let's get going!" Sheena said, eager to go.

"Not so fast." Universa said sternly, "For this to work, you will need a clone of the Chosen. Otherwise, you will never be able to revive him. I think there is a man in Truce that could make us a clone. Do you have anything for him to model it by?"

Sheena nodded, "Yeah. I have a picture of him. Will that work?"

"Yes. I am very sure that would suffice. But there is one more thing."

Sheena sighed, "This isn't a story, you know. What's up with all the random twists?"

Universa ignored her comment and continued, "There is a magic that needs to be activated there. A magic of Ice, Lightning, Fire, and…"

"And?" Sheena asked, a bit impatient.

"…Sky." Universa looked at the floor, remembering how he devastated Raise.

"Oh…" Sheena sighed. Of course Raise would help, but she might fight with Universa. Not a good thing.

"It does not matter." Universa shook his head, "These elements I have just listed…they are the elements of the mountain. Doing so will activate three machines that will guide you along the trials of the mountain."

Sheena was silent for a minute, but then put on a strong face, "I'll do it. I'll go."

"Wait a moment. I am coming as well." a new voice said.

A/N: Cliffie. On the first chapter, too. Who's the mystery voice? Find out later! And to the new reader who haven't read the rest of the Sheena saga, don't be intimidated by all the new characters…blame The Court Case for that. I ask of you to keep reading a bear with. Also, review! I can't know what you think if you don't put it in, though I'd rather you not if you're going to spam or flame. But anyways bear with If You Want to Bring Him Back, and keep reading. Read on.
