Hio! This is my first-ever ficcy! So please, lemme know how it is! It takes place just after the battle with the Fusion Dragon.... And has no relation to TLA. I've never played it. -_- So obviously, it's not going to follow whatever storyline TLA does. Hey, if there's any complaints that I altered things, do a review. :) Oh yes, and since I think he's not given enough credit, I'm doing this mostly from Garet's standpoint. And just so time isn't a problem, (Babi doesn't have much draught left in GS 1) I'll say they've already been to lemuria. I won't be able to explain what happened there, since that's the Lost Age's territory, but if anyone has a better suggestion(OTHER than finding spoilers) lemme know.

~~~Chap 1-The Blessing~~~
Water. Water, water, water. It got really tiring after a week or so. But Garet never had been one for patience. He was at the Lemurian ship's orb. Ivan, Isaac, and Mia were all below deck. Garet snorted. Probably playing that little I-Spy game Ivan had started a few days ago. He had sat in on one for a while, but it wasn't much fun. He couldn't find anything out of the portholes except water. And he didn't like water all that much. He sighed, and focused his Psynergy to turn the ship slightly to port to keep it on course. Whatever course that was. Isaac probably didn't have any idea where they were going either.
Garet kept this up for nearly an hour more, when the rest of the team clambered up from below.
"Wow, we're still floating," Ivan said. He was grinning. "I was gonna give you 15 minutes before you hit something." Garet growled. The chipper little Jupiter Adept said something like this every time Garet's turn was finished. Garet mentally released the helm, and strode past Ivan, looking sour. He really wanted to dump the little booger in the water, and throw him a rope and let him float for a while...but he knew Isaac wasn't going to let him get away with it. Besides, it WAS Ivan's turn, and no one liked taking their turn early. Especially not Mia.
Ivan stepped up to the orb, and took control. Isaac stood silent and watched for a minute, apparently thinking. He looked around, and then spoke.
"Okay, it looks like Garet kept us pretty well on track...I'd say continue this way for another hour, and if we don't spot the island by then we'll try somewhere else," he said, looking a little disappointed. Garet knew he'd been expecting to catch up with Jenna and the rest earlier than this. He thought they would too, since the ship traveled so quickly. They had made it to Lemuria and back to Babi in only a couple days...so why was it so hard to find that stupid island?
Garet sighed. "I think I'm gonna go take a nap, guys," he said. Isaac nodded.
"Yeah, get some rest. Mia, why don't you rest up too? You're next up once Ivan's finished."
Mia nodded sleepily. She hadn't been very talkative today, since she had done her last two shifts without any sleep. Garet was glad she was finally going to bed, since she had been prone to crack people over the head with her staff if they startled her. Isaac probably still had a lump from one of these occurrences. Garet watched as Mia headed off to one of the little cabins on the far side of the ship, and he went down below and stretched out on the sleeping cot he left for himself here. He stared at the ceiling of the ship, hearing it creak slightly as it rocked on the water, and began to drift off.
Just as he was nearly unconscious, a funny feeling sprung onto the back of his neck. Like someone was watching him. But he wanted to sleep. The feeling persisted, and finally in aggravation he slowly opened one eye. He saw a huge blue eye right in his face, staring at him.
"YAAAAAAHHH!" he yelled as he rolled away. He was awake now. He scrambled to his feet and tried to get a good look at the thing that had woken him. It was the floating rock he and Isaac had seen all that time ago in Sol Sanctum. The Wise One?
Before Garet could say anything, the sound of running footsteps sounded from above, and Isaac burst in, sword drawn. He looked at Garet, then to the Wise One, and his jaw dropped. The Wise One looked completely indifferent to the commotion it had just caused. Or maybe it was just because it was a rock. Isaac was still staring at it.
"You're.... How'd you get all the way out here?" Isaac asked disbelievingly. He sheathed his sword and waited for a response. The Wise One blinked its huge eye, and spoke in their minds.
I needed to speak with you. How I am here is not important now. I have an urgent errand for you.
Isaac blinked, and Garet scratched his head. Wasn't what they were doing now an errand?
The Wise One continued, It has come to my attention that Felix has discovered the whereabouts of an item of great power, known as the Shining Blessing. He is even now attempting to obtain it. With its power there would be no way of stopping him and his party from lighting the remaining lighthouses. You must prevent him from reaching it.
While Garet was turning this new problem over in his mind, Isaac said, "How are we supposed to know where to look?"
The Wise One suddenly flickered. Or did it? Garet shook his head. The others already thought he was a doofus. No need to make them think he was seeing things, too.
The Wise one's tone became somewhat more urgent. I can say no more here.... Just get to land. I will explain what you are to do from there....
End of Chap 1
Whaddya think? A bit short, and probably not the best, but it's a start. It should get better as chapters go on if I get enough feedback. (Hint hint, review ppls) Until then, you have this mild cliffhanger to occupy yourselves with.
