Stupid Guard System xD If you've read my other stories, forgive me. My mind has been like… Not good at thinking up new questions… I've been playing Tales of Symphonia since last week and I'm already in Tethe'alla. Damn, Zelos thinks up the weirdest names. Hm, I wonder if he's aware that Genis and Raine are related, since this is Zelos we're talking about. Nah, I'm kidding. Anyway, I've written a few other stories, as you can see, but this is the first Tales of Symphonia story I've written. Hopefully, I won't make the cast OOC. Oh… Before I finish off…

Death Skater: -hits Zelos- Shame!

Zelos: Ow! What did I do!?

Death Skater: You called Kratos an SOB! Shame, shame, shame!

Zelos: So, it was true! He acted like such a know-it-all.

Death Skater: Well, I'm a fan girl, so shut up!

Sheena: Stop it, both of you!

Death Skater: Oh, someone's jealous. She doesn't like the fact I'm hitting Zelos when it's her job.

Sheena: -blushes- T-that is not true!

Zelos: I knew you always loved me.'

Blueberry-Pie Death Skater does not own Tales of Symphonia or any of its contents. Although I do own Rin, my OC and Julia Sinclair.

The pattering sounds of the rain only pushed her deeper down the hole she was already falling in.

"Sheena, are you sure you'll be all right?" Colette asked, heading towards the door with an umbrella in hand. Her hair and clothing were a little damp. Sheena, on the other hand was soaked.

"I'll be… Fine. I just need to be alone for a little bit." Sheena replied blankly, her voice reaching an emotionless tone, close to Presea's voice when her emotions were subdued.

"All right… I'll come by again later, okay?" Colette asked, unable to force a smile onto her face. Then again, why should she? She wasn't suffering like Sheena was. Sheena only nodded before Colette turned her concerned face away from Sheena's suffering one. Stepping out the door of the room Sheena was in, she looked up to the others surrounding the door. Most of them at least, since Zelos had been to unhappy to join the group.

"How is she doing?" Lloyd asked with a worried voice while they headed towards the door, all with umbrellas on the rainy day.

"I'm worried. Sheena seems really depressed. I'm afraid she might hurt herself…" Colette said, turning her face to the direction.

"It was a shock to her." Regal commented, turning the knob.

"Of course it was. Zelos promised her he wouldn't kiss another girl and-" Raine started, only to be interrupted by her little brother.

"BAM! It hits her like a ton of bricks. There he is, kissing another girl." Genis finished off, stepping outside with Colette and Lloyd, Raine, Kratos, Presea, and Regal following close behind.

"If Zelos didn't tell me what happened, I think I might've killed him." Lloyd added. Kratos nodded, signing that he would've joined Lloyd.

"It's a shame she didn't believe him." Presea said, her voice with a little more feeling, but one could tell it was still somewhat monotonous.

"That's true, but I highly doubt after what she saw, Sheena would believe anything that Zelos told her." Kratos explained.

"Man, it's a downpour today. Sheena, you really think you can make it to Meltokio in this kind of weather?" Lloyd inquired, sitting with the others on the ground in Mizuho while Sheena sat across from then, picking another dumpling with chopsticks and popping it into her mouth.

"Of course, they said it'd stop later today, so the fireworks would still be going." The Chief if Mizuho said after chewing and gulping down the dumpling.

"Why not just go later then?" Colette asked.

"I won't make it to the fireworks." Sheena replied, poking the softly made dumplings.

"All right, then we'll go with you!" Lloyd announced.

"… You're totally right. I should've gone later. Being late for fireworks… Well, I sort of find it worth it." Sheena said, totally soaked even though they acquired umbrellas when entering Meltokio. To be honest, Sheena was rather excited about going to the fireworks. Mizuho had gotten on the King's good side and as an apology, as one might call it, there was a new fireworks festival this year, in which people would wear a clothing matching Mizuho's traditional clothing. There were fireworks in the sky and people lit small fireworks. There was the cotton candy, candy apples, all the sweet and simple things in life.

"Ah, I see that you guys had fun in the rain." A girl said from behind them. They all turned to see a young girl holding in umbrella over her head. It was pink with little flower designs.

"Rin! Why're you here?" Sheena asked curiously, wondering why the Priestess who resided in Mizuho would be found in Meltokio.

"… I've been gone since last week." Rin replied, blankly.

"They said you went to Sybak, right?" Presea asked.

"I came to Meltokio for the festival, just for the heck of it." Rin shrugged, check her clothing. It was a common outfit worn by a Priestess, with the white top, but her pants happened to be dark blue. Over her was a long pink kimono, but it was more like a jacket, sash-less, not to mention. It was a mystery how she seemed to keep the kimono clean with the bottom dragging on the ground.

"He's over there, if you're looking for him." Rin said, smiling. The others immediately knew she spoke of Zelos, as she pointed towards his mansion. "Now if you excuse me, I've got to go get that thing Orochi asked me to get… What was it again? … Ah, it seems I forgotten. Oh well, I suppose I'll return empty-handed if I don't remember, but then, I'm sure he won't become too angry… I don't think so…" Rin added, strolling off to another store. The others stared oddly at her. For a priestess, she was slightly stupid, but one might say it was her charm, or not.

"Anyway, I'll go get Zelos. I need to make sure he doesn't buy me something for the festival… Who knows what he can do with a kimono." Sheena sighed, remembering all the parties he practically dragged her to and all revealing outfits shoved in the closet the days she was forced to go. The others sweat-dropped, understanding how wild Zelos Wilder's antics could be.

That was when she saw it. That feeling you get when someone you love pushes you down a hole and you can get out and get to them again. Her umbrella fell and rain fell on her face and you couldn't see her tears, which mixed with the pouring water. He looked shocked and when he felt someone staring, he tore away only to see her. She was just staring, eyes wide. He knew she was crying, even when he couldn't see her tears, blending with the rain.

"Sheena, it's not what you—!" Zelos began, but stopped when Sheena merely held a hand up in front of his face, looking towards the ground. Sheena knew one thing. The last thing keeping her standing all that time was Zelos, but now that he wasn't helping her, she couldn't walk anymore. She was stuck there.

"I see… So I was just another one of your 'toys' to be played with and tossed aside when grown tired of?" Sheena said, but somehow, it wasn't her. She sounded dark, not sad, like one would assume. Although her eyes were not visible, her mouth was and well… It was smiling, but the smile was sinister and seemed like it would cackle and let out an insane laugh any moment.

"Sheena, that's not--!" Zelos began, but Sheena only stopped him again.

"Don't lie to me, if you don't need me… Just tell me." Sheena said, but her smile faded and her voice was filled with despair he expected.

"No, Sheena, I do need you! I'm not lying! She suddenly come up and asked me to come out and--!" Zelos was nearly finished explaining, but he stopped himself short at her sudden outburst.

"What?! You expect me to believe you after what I just saw?! I'm not stupid, Zelos Wilder! I should've known it was a mistake letting myself fall in love with someone like you, who even promised he wouldn't kiss another girl except for me, just to find him kissing another girl! You've probably been cheating on me this whole time!" Sheena cried out, revealing her tear stained eyes. Zelos firmly gripped her shoulders and opened his mouth to protest, but one she said those words, his grip was lost and his hands fell to his sides while he could only look at her.

"I guess it was a mistake… falling in love with you."

Hah! I owned that dumb Machine! xD I hope you liked it… This story… Well, it might take another turn. I don't know, I don't think it will be very long though, some reason.
