CW- you thought it was safe to let you're guard down. You thought it was safe to read other fanfics. But then it happened. I wrote a sequel. Hehehehehehehe that was messed up. Anyway, if you're reading this it means that you read the first part "The Return of Kratos", this is the sequel "The Revenge of Angelos Illume". I'm hoping that you think it's as good as the first one. I also hope to get many reviews. But first………
The disclaimer- I don't own nor will I ever own tales of symphonia or any of it's characters. I do however own my OC Angelos.
CW- Now then, that's out of the way.
Lloyd- so can we start now
CW- yeah
Angelos- finally
CW- don't you two get uppity with me
Kratos- can we just start
CW- all right, all right
"thinks for a second"
CW- wait, I forgot something very important
Lloyd- what?
CW- I have to give major credit to my friend shadowofthewave. She totally inspired the main storyline and I couldn't have written this fic without her
Lloyd- great, ok, are you done now
CW- ummmmm….. yeah, I'm done
Lloyd- finally
CW- we're not gonna start this rivalry again are we
Lloyd- only if I'm provoked
CW- good now, to the story
Tales of Symphonia
The Revenge of Angelos Illume
Chapter 1
Angelos Rises Again
It has been one year since the Angelos incident took place, and our heroes have returned to their everyday lives. Lloyd and Collette had taken to living on the road with Kratos. They were continuing their quest to find the remaining exspheres and they weren't having much luck. A starry night hung over Symphonia as the three of them sat around a fire and discussed the days events.
"Another day, another exsphere" exclaimed Lloyd as the fire crackled near by.
"Yeah" replied Collette, "just one other exsphere, we just can't find them as abundantly as we used to".
"That's probably because you've found most of them already" muttered Kratos.
"He's right" commented Lloyd, "the end of our journey was bound to be harder since there would be less to find".
For the next few moments, the group was silent. So silent in fact, that they could hear monsters howling even from miles away. The fire continued to crackle as Lloyd watched it expectantly, as though he were waiting for something to emerge from the flames. Finally, Collette looked around for a moment and then spoke.
"Hey um… Lloyd?" she called.
"Yeah?" replied Lloyd, not even taking the time to look away from the fire.
"Does this place seem familiar to you?" she asked gazing at the surrounding field with a worried gaze.
"Not really" replied Lloyd, "should it?"
"I'm not sure" said Collette as she lay down on her back.
"This place should look familiar to both of you" explained Kratos.
"Why?" asked both Lloyd and Collette at the same time.
"Because" replied Kratos, "this is the field where we finally defeated that maniac, Angelos Illume". Both Lloyd and Collette sat up and stared at Kratos. They turned to look at each other for a moment, then they turned back to him.
"Are you serious!" asked Collette in total shock
"I'm afraid I don't have much of a sense of humor" replied Kratos with a slight smirk on his face. Collette and Lloyd sat there for a few minutes, remembering the fight that took place here one year ago. They remembered getting hurt very badly while fighting Angelos in his giant angel form. They remembered how Lloyd banded them together to defeat the great evil. And they also remembered the wedding that took place after the battle, the wedding which marked the unison of Sheena and Zelos.
"It's kind of a scary thought to remember" remarked Collette.
"But at the same time" replied Lloyd, "it was one of our greatest victories.
"I agree" imputed Kratos.
Hours passed by as the 3 of them talked about Angelos and his defeat. After so long however, they finally exhausted themselves and went to sleep.
At 11:55pm………
the group slept soundly as the crickets chirped nearby. The crickets song, however peaceful, was dramatically cut short by the shoe of a passer by who had stepped on them. The stranger wandered carefully over to the campsite and stood nearby, watching the team sleep. Suddenly, there was a loud explosion, and the team was sent flying across the field.
"Agggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh" they all screamed as the pain rushed through their bodies. They hit the ground with a large crash and stood up immediately after regaining their composure.
"Who's there?" asked Kratos demandingly as he unsheathed his sword, "show yourself and reveal your identity".
"But Kratos" came a slightly familiar voice, "you should already know who I am, I mean, you were talking about me not even 3 hours ago". Kratos stood there thinking for a moment, his sword still clutched in his hand.
"No!" he murmured in a voice so low that the figure could barely hear him, "it can't be, you were destroyed beyond all reason". The figure took another step closer and replied.
"Yes, well, rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated". The figure stepped out from the smoke of his own blast, and reveled the familiar form of the evil Angelos Illume.
"No way!" yelped Lloyd as he and Collette prepared for combat, "we hit you with everything we had".
"Well if that's the case" replied Angelos mockingly, "then you must be weaker then I gave you credit for". He spread his wings and took to the air. "You see, my simple minded enemies, I have the power of regeneration, as long as a single piece of my being still remains, I can pull myself together. Thankfully, you and your friends were generous enough to leave my destroyed body pieces scattered across the planet".
"You scum" called Kratos.
"Now, now" protested Angelos, "there's no need for name calling, besides actions speak louder then words".
"I agree" shouted Kratos as he sprouted his wings and charged forth. He swung his sword right at Angelos, but it went right through him, as though he were a ghost. In all actuality however, he was simply moving at such a high speed, that it looked as though he hadn't even moved and the sword passed right through him. "What the-?" shouted Kratos.
"Oh I'm sorry" mocked Angelos, "did I forget to mention that I have a little power booster". He snapped his fingers and what should appear in his hand but Mithos' re-assembled cruxcious crystal. "You see" he began, "after I was defeated by you, I started giving my plan some thought and I realized what I did wrong".
"And what might that be you psycho" asked Collette angrily".
"I was trying to bring Mithos back" he began again, "when I should have just used his power on myself. But now I have rectified that problem and I have become" he raised his hand and gathered energy, "THE MOST POWERFULL BEING IN THE UNIVERSE MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA". The group could only look on in horror as they were swallowed up by an immense amount of energy.
