*Author's note: This is not dealing with the original Grandia, I don't know
if they have nething in common though, because I've never played the first.
Well, ne ways, this is using ppl from the second Grandia, but I'm adding
a few characters. Anyways, here's my story! OH! I almost forgot. Even
though Melfice is probably dead, (I dunno, I haven't finished the game
yet…) He comes back…again…okay? Okay. If you have any questions, post
them in a review, and, if you leave your e-mail addy, I will get back to
you a/s/a/p!

Grandia- Angelic Nightmare
Ryudo woke up in a cold sweat for the third time this week. He was recalling everything about his past…again. He could recall the time a year ago when his older brother, Melfice, had regained power and tried to kill him and his friends.
"If it weren't for that automaton." Ryudo said to himself with a sigh of relief, his hand on his forehead. A quite large bird that was sleeping on the headboard awoke. This was a quite unusual bird, for he could talk.
"Are you still having those dreams Ryudo?" The bird asked him, blinking his eyes.
"I just don't understand it Skye. I thought that it was all over. I'm pretty sure that Melfice is, you know, this time, but I can't be sure. What if he came back?" Ryudo said with a sigh.
"Well, I highly doubt it, but I guess anything is possible, judging from our last mission." The bird said with a ruffle of his wings.
"I guess I'm just worrying too much. I need to calm down and loosen up a bit. Sorry for waking you up, Skye." Ryudo said, getting up off of his bed.
"Oh don't be! I was getting up anyways. It's nearly time for breakfast you know." Sky said, flying to land on Ryudo's shoulder.
"Yeah, I guess you're right. Well, let's go get us something." Ryudo said as they walked down the stairs.
A girl that had blonde hair, pulled back in braids, was sitting at the kitchen table when Ryudo walked into the kitchen.
"Morning Elena! Oh, and by the way, thanks again for letting me stay here with you!" Ryudo said with a smile. He proceeded to get a glass from the cabinet and pour himself a glass of orange juice.
"Ryudo, that's the seventh time you've said that in the past two days, and you said it ten times the day before that! I've heard enough of it, you're welcome to stay as long as you want to, and you know it!" The girl called Elena said, brushing a loose piece of hair out of her face.
"Oh. Okay then." Ryudo said, giving Elena a cheesy smile. Elena just laughed a bit and went back to eating her breakfast.
Ryudo walked over to her and picked up a piece of bacon from her plate. He stuffed it in his mouth, and when she looked at him he gave her the same cheesy smile, only while chewing. Apparently, Elena thought this funny, because she began laughing exceptionally hard. This caused Ryudo to laugh also, and he almost choked because of it.
"Remind me never to laugh when I have food in my mouth." Ryudo said, taking a drink of his already half gone orange juice. Elena laughed a little bit.
"Oh, by the way, Ambrea is coming over today." Elena said, then took a drink of her water. Ryudo seemed to be the only person that drank the orange juice. He began to pour himself another glass, but almost dropped it when he heard the mention of Ambrea's name.
"WHAT? Why are we bringing her along! You never told me anything about this!" Ryudo said, nearly spitting out the drink that he had in his mouth. (he had tried to take a drink from the carton.)
"Ryudo! She's my friend!" Elena said in an angry tone. "In fact, she's my BEST friend!" Elena said, standing up from the table.
"Oh, and it doesn't bother you that your best friend CONSTANTLY flirts, and in fact has a major crush on your BOY friend?" Ryudo said matter-of- factly. The look on his face caused Elena to laugh again.
"I don't know about you Ryudo!" Elena said, still laughing.
Ryudo went back to drinking his juice, and then began to get himself some breakfast.
"Hey, Elena, you didn't make enough bacon for me!" Ryudo said, eyeing her plate.
"Oh no, don't think you're getting any from me, you already stole one piece!" Elena said, as stern as she could. Ryudo gave her a puppy-dog face that could convince anyone.
"Why do you do that to me Ryudo!" Elena said, trying not to laugh. "Fine, one piece. ONE!"
While Ryudo reached over to get his bacon, the doorbell rang.
"If that's Ambrea send her away, and I'm not here!" Ryudo said.
"Ryudo, be nice!" Elena said, sternly.
"Yeah Ryudo, please try and be nice." Skye said to Ryudo. He was perched on the back of one of the kitchen chairs now, instead of Ryudo's shoulder.
"Shut up Skye, I wasn't talking to you." Ryudo said, giving his cheesy grin.
By the time Elena came back, all four of her remaining pieces of bacon had been stolen, and Ryudo had eaten them.
"Ryudo! Where did my bacon go?" Elena questioned him, her hands on her hips.
"My stomach is being evil, and it is holding all four of them, Bill, Bob, Frank, and Fred, hostage. Sorry. I can get him to give them back, but it wouldn't be pretty." Ryudo said, taking a drink of his orange juice, then smiling at her. This smile was about as cheesy as the first was.
Ambrea had walked in after Elena, and was now smiling, and batting her eyes flirtatiously at Ryudo. Ryudo picked up his plate and started to take it up to the sink. On the way,
"See! Look at the way she stares at me!" Ryudo whispered playfully in Elena's ear. She chuckled a little at his remark.
"So where are we going on this mission to?" Ambrea asked Elena, still looking at Ryudo.
"A small town called Dragloning, just a little north from here, about a day's walk. If we leave soon, we should get there by dusk." Elena said, beginning to do the dishes.
Ryudo had begun to take a drink of juice, but it was soon spit out when he heard Elena's words.
"Dragloning? Wow. I know where that is! We can leave now… please?" Ryudo said, giving Elena his puppy-dog face.
"Well, just let me get my bag. I just finished the dishes. Do you have your stuff Ambrea?" Elena asked her. This caused Ambrea to pull her gaze from Ryudo.
"Oh, yeah, right in there. I set it on the couch. I hope you don't mind." Ambrea said, pointing into the living room. Then she tossed her back- length brown hair behind her shoulder, and locked the gaze of her golden brown eyes on Ryudo once again.
"Okay then, it's settled! I'll get our bags Ryudo." Elena said, then began to turn around and head for her bedroom.
"Let me help you!" Ryudo said quickly and nearly ran to catch up.
While they were walking down the hallway, Ryudo began to complain about Ambrea.
"See! Just look at that! Did you see that? When you asked her that question, she had to wrench her vision from me! I mean, I am a good thing to look at, but when she looks it's just an insult! And don't you dare ask to who!" Ryudo said as they gathered their stuff.
"Okay…who to?" Elena said.
"Oh. You're gonna get it!" Ryudo said, and began tickling her until she was purple in the face from laughing so hard.
"We- better- get – going!" Elena said between her furious laughter. She was still laughing when they walked out into the living room.
Ambrea heard them enter, and her gaze instantly locked on Ryudo.
"Look! She's looking at me, and has that stupid smile on her face!" Ryudo whispered over to Elena.
"Ryudo, just be quiet! She won't try anything." Elena whispered to him.
"Hell she won't." Ryudo muttered under his breath. Things were going too good with Elena to screw them up now. He began thinking, and realized, maybe Dragloning wasn't such a good place to go after all.
