(Disclaimer: I do not own gs.

Ivan – you wouldn't kill me off! I'm your fav GS character!!!

PG – eeeeeeexactly. *flicks through 5 off pages of notes * hmm….i don't see Ivan dieing in here…..you're clean.

Ivan – Yay!)

"Cloak," A low voice whispered.

The girl's body immediately blended in with the tent flap behind her. There was not a bare flicker of movement when she crept forwards.

Perfect.

She continued to steal throughout the excavation camp, before coming to the centre of camp- a roped-off hole in the ground. The workmen had already dug deep; this is what was worrying the girl.

If they dig much further, they'll find just what they're looking for- and their worst nightmare…

The girl slipped under the rope, hoping to find what she wanted while she still had the cover of darkness to protect her.

The hole dug in the ground was deeper than she had first estimated, and she ended up sliding down the muddy bank, having missed the ladder leading down. When she reached the bottom of the pit, she quickly grabbed a candle from her pack, and lit it. The cloak psynergy wore off, but she felt safe enough at the bottom of the hole. The light was a small light, but sufficient enough to let the girl see what she wanted. She let out a terrified gasp.

The workmen had dug down so they were bare inches from the peak of Mt Aleph. But, there was a man-shaped hole in the soil.

Not good.

Suddenly, a hand shot from behind, and covered the girl's mouth before she had time to scream. A second arm snaked around her neck, almost strangling her. A hoarse voice whispered in her ear.

"Freeze,"

The girl quickly reached for her sword, and spun it out of its sheath. Wrenching herself out off the attacker's grasp, she turned the sword point to the attacker, finally seeing his features.

I knew it- it's him!!

The man drew his own sword. He did not seem to know this girl, however much she knew him. He lunged at her, and she expertly blocked.

I need to get out of here fast.

"Spark plasma!!!" She cried.

Bolts of lightening struck the man. The girl, seeing her chance, stamped on her dropped candle, and re-cloaked. Then, she ran, as if being chased by wolves, up the slope, out of the pit.

"You OK, Ivan?" A soft voice asked from behind.

Ivan jumped, and brushed a stand of blonde hair out of his eyes. Turning round, he found the speaker to be a blue-haired girl- Mia.

"Uh, I guess I'm ok," He answered. "It's just…"

"Yeah?"

"I sense…something bad…coming sooner than I can properly foresee it…" Ivan frowned, placing a hand upon his brow. "Yeowch…headache…"

Mia strode over, and cast a quick ply. Ivan smiled, looking up at the Mercury adept.

"Thanks," He said.

Mia laughed, before her expression turned serious again.

"How much have you sensed?"

"There's going to be a war over Alchemy. And…just faintly…the return of an old enemy, but whom…I cannot see," Ivan explained.

Mia nodded. "A war for Alchemy is unavoidable. We've already seen some of the rebel factions who want a slice of action. But…do you mean a full-out war or something?"

"The climax is fast approaching. Things are going to happen to all of us…some bad, some good. Maybe we could ask Kraden about anything foretold to happen after the lighting of the lighthouses," Ivan suggested.

Mia agreed. "Yah. We'll wait for everyone else to wake up, then see if Sheba's seen anything, and ask Kraden. 'Till then, lets have some breakfast, shall we?"

"You don't have to treat me like a 5-year-old!!!" Ivan cried, sticking his tongue out.

Mia laughed again, and dug half a loaf of bread out of her pack.

"Let's try toasting this without Garet or Jenna burning it," She mused.

"I heard that!!!" Garet muttered, stumbling out of one of the tents. Not being fully awake, he fell onto a tree trunk. "Oof!"

His yells awoke the rest of the group, and so out they tumbled- Isaac, Felix, Sheba, Jenna and Piers, in front of a hysterically laughing Ivan and Mia.

"It's not funny!" Isaac moaned, at the bottom of the pile of adepts.

Asked about the books on the Alchemy Wars, Kraden knew a surprising amount.

"Well! There's a prophecy that two adepts of each element will re-start the great clans. They will be able to overcome the rebel factions, and bring peace to Weyard, and get rid of the 'Evil one'," Kraden explained.

"Any idea who these adepts are?" Felix wondered.

"Umm…no, not really," Kraden admitted. "But I remember a book in Tolbi library that had some information on that. We should travel to Tolbi!"

"To Tolbi!" Isaac exclaimed, standing up from the circle of his friends.

"To Tolbi," The rest of the group murmured in union.
