Me: Hey everyone! This is one of my first fanfictions ever! I started another ToS one here on but I never finished it because no one reviewed and someone only reviewed to get me to stop complaining and it was nothing but pure criticism that was nothing good. But it did go pretty fast. I'm hoping to try to go slower on this one.
Lloyd: Slower? You're going to go slow? I thought that was your boyfriends' job.
Me: Yeah… That's true… Well slow enough for the readers to get hooked on! But I have to thank freakyanimegal456! I love your stories and they always make me want to read more! With such good stories, you became a huge inspiration to me!
Kratos: Stop sucking up. You just want her to read your story and possibly borrow Cheresea from her Grandkid and Tasks of Spirit stories.
Me: -.-……… Okay so I do! I'm sorry but I love that character of her story! But I could never get her right! Whatever! One of you 2 say the disclaimer or you both get tomatoes tonight!
Lloyd: EVIL! Silver doesn't own ToS. If she did, Mithos would have died much more painfully and dad would never have left us and told me earlier. There! Now keep those vile things away from me!
Chapter 1 - Arrival
A young girl was walking around a busy street on a small blue planet called Earth with her best friend. The 2 girls are about 16, the first with knee length silver-white hair that was up in a high ponytail with the rest in a perfect wave form.
She stood about 5' 4" with purple-ish color eyes that are normally a light ocean-blue color that some would think is silver like her hair. She's a well loved girl, very smart, and loves history. Most boys in the city have formed a crush on this girl yet she's denied every offer of a date or even marriage.
The second girl has light brown hair down to the middle of her back and amber-brown colored eyes while she stands about 5'2". Everyone but the first girl though, treats the second girl like trash. The second female is actually a servant to the first, yet they go to the same school and have every class together. Though you'd never know, neither girl is truly from Earth, yet only the brunette knows, remembers is more like it though.
Both girls at home are actually huge fans of a game called Tales of Symphonia. The first girl, Crystal Flowenta, favors Kratos and Lloyd over Yuan and Zelos who the second girl, Venra Vines, favors.
Once home, the 2 girls work on their homework together then play their favor game, Tales of Symphonia but when they start of the game, they can't load their previously saved data.
"What the hell?!" exclaims Crystal. "Why can't we start up our data," asked Venra. "I'm not sure V. Maybe there's something wrong with the game…" Turning the power off and cleaning the disk, they start up the game again but encounter the same problem. They try 3 more times, except on the 5th time, they hear a voice they a familiar with after having beaten the game 6 times each and twice together.
"Enough already. You will not be able to load your file. Don't bother trying again either," states the voice. Venra, hearing the voice, immediately seems to tense up. "Lord Origin…." "Venra, you have done well these last 16 years. But it is time now, that both of you return. You are both needed," claims Origin. "Needed? Needed for what? What the hell is going on? Venra you sound like you've met Origin before."
Waiting for an answer, Crystal turns to watch her best friend, not realizing that her TV screen went completely blank. Venra, hesitating a few minutes, releases a sigh then faces Crystal. "Crystal…. It's time I told you the truth."
"The truth? What truth? What are you talking about?!" questions Crystal. "I'm talking about Symphonia. It's not a game Crystal. It's a real place. Origin, Kratos, Lloyd, and everyone else are real. There's a reason why you're so drawn to Raine more then any of the other characters, why you two seem a lot alike. That's because you are alike. You and Raine are-"
Being cut off from a loud screeching noise that comes from the TV, Venra instantly covers her ears that affect her much more then Crystal."Venra, it's time now."
Hearing him, fear starts to form on the brunettes face. "No! Please don't! I don't want to go back to that state! I enjoy this freedom! Please, don't send me back there! Don't send me back to him!!!"
"You won't return there. Instead, you will stay with Crystal as I promised." Relief instantly replaced Venra's fear. "Okay hold on a mana second!"
Completely forgetting Crystal was there, Venra jumped some and looked at her. "What is going on here?! What are you two talking about?! You make it sound like you're not even from here or something!"
Hesitantly, with a bit of fear, Venra looks at Crystal. "Because I'm not… Nor are you… Both of us are from Sylvarant. Remember that jewelry box I have that we can't open and I told you it'd open at the right time?"
Remembering no problem, the silver haired girl nods while Venra digs into her school bag and takes the box out. Thinking for a minute, the brunette hands the box to her friend. "Try to open it now."
Confused and surprised by Venra's actions, Crystal takes the box and easily manages to open it, only to find 2 tiny light sky-blue crystal balls in there, one with a hint of silver, the other with a hint of pink. Staring at the crystal balls, Crystal looks at Venra, trying to find words to speak.
"These are…. But they can't be! They don't exist on Earth!" exclaims Crystal. "You are correct. Not on Earth. But on Sylvarant, Tethe'alla, and Derris-Kharlan, they do," explains a new, light female voice.
Somehow, in an instant, Crystal knows exactly who it is as if expecting the voice. "….Undine…." "Correct young one. Crystal, you must believe us. If you and Venra do not return, then the pact-maker and everyone else will be destroyed." Hesitant a bit, Crystal thinks a bit then realizes that a hole she's felt in her from before she can remember is no longer there.
"….I believe you…. Just talking to you, Undine…. I feel almost completely whole…. But why with you and no one else."
"Because you specialize in water and light based attacks," explains a new, heavenly like female voice. "Luna!" "Correct. Please young star, you must return."
Still thinking about their pleads, she feels 4 pairs of eyes on her (A/N: 3 from another world) then gives out a deep sigh. "Alright…. I'll go back. Now I understand that those images weren't a dream…. Seems those sword lessons will come in handy now I guess..."
Venra, with a smile on her face, fights the urge to just hug her best friend out of happiness. "Alright then! Origin can you please bring us back?" she asks.
"I will bring you as close to them as I can," he replies. "Sounds good to me." With a sudden flash from the forgotten TV screen, the two young friends disappear and reappear in on top of what appear to be a deserted mountain top… face first into the ground.
"Ow…. He couldn't have made it an easier and pain-free landing?" questions Crystal. "Guess not…" Slowly, the 2 sit up and look around. "Where are we?" asks Venra. After examining the surrounding area, Crystal instantly recognizes the mountain top. "Oh my…. We're onto of Fuuji Mountains in Tethe'alla!"
Looking around, Venra sees the same thing. "You're right! But why here? Do you think they're still on the journey in the time we've landed in?"
"I think so… I don't hear foot steps but I do hear the sounds of someone screaming… Wait…. It sounds like it's coming from-" Cutting herself up, she daringly looks up only to get up and jump out of the way, pulling Venra with her, of a crashing Raine on a Rheaird.
With 4 more crashing sounds, the two girls sit up and look around. "Well you can guess where they're at in their journey," states Venra.
Not really paying attention, Crystal nods slightly in reply, staring at Raine instead. (Why does she seem so important to me? I feel nearly as whole as I did when talking to Undine and Luna.)
Groaning from the pain of the impact, Raine sits up, rubbing her head some and casts a quick First-Aid on herself then senses Crystal and Venra's mana and looks at the two but stares at Crystal.
"….It's you….You're the girl from my dreams…." Plainly states a tranced-Raine. "You're…." Suddenly feeling pain, she holds her head as memories flash in her mind, a 12 year old Raine and a 1 year old Genis, run from a group of pursuers and monsters until they hide behind a bush ahead of them.
Catches herself, a heavily breathing Crystal holds herself up with her hands and knees. "….I remember…. Those guards…. They were after us…. Because of what we are…." Pants Crystal.
Hearing her words, Raine just stares at her young 16 year-old looking near-twin. "So…. You're-"
"Sis!" "Professor!" Being cut off, Raine looks behind her at Lloyd, Genis, Sheena, and a doll-like Colette.
When Lloyd and the others reach Raine, all but Colette stare at Raine and Crystal, hardly able to tell them apart. "What the?! Two professors?!" "Sis what's going here?"
"….Genis…." Subconsciously, Crystal reaches over to Genis and hugs him like Raine hugs him in a sister way. "You're okay…. You are alive…."
Confused, the young half-elf backs away some. "What are you talking about? Of course I'm alive. How do you know who I am?"
Realizing what happened, Crystal blushes faintly from embarrassment. "Oh my…. I'm so sorry…. I don't know what came over me…"
"I do…" Both Raine and Crystal look at Venra. "Venra? What's going on?" question the 2 girls.
Sweatdroping at the unison speech, Venra leans against the bolder next to her. "Okay one…. Please don't do that…. That's just too creepy. Second…. What's going on is…."
Me: So? How is it?
Crystal: Could you be anymore confusing?! I mean you keep cutting everyone off before they can explain what the H is going on!
Me: Well that's the point dummy. They have to wait until next chapter!
Lloyd: You're evil you know that?
Me: Yep! And I'm proud of it!
Genis: -in a whisper to the others- Insane too…
Me: THUNDER BLADE! –fries Genis-
Genis: Pain…
Lloyd: -sighs- Read and review please! And try not to put her down.
