AN: Ok the way I typed that was kinda gay…with the (Liar) and (Or so he thinks) yeah it was kinda gay… my bad… but anyway this chap might be somewhat confusing cause I kinda have to include other characters in the story and set the baseline and such... I mean an only Lloyd story where he does everything by himself with no interaction with any of his friends would be kinda stupid... so yeah... also this is not a yaoi fic for any of you who want to know... ON WITH THE FIC

"Noishe come on..." Lloyd tries again to pull Noishe into the cave with him. Noishe whines again and then bolts off back into the woods. Lloyd shakes his head then sighs and trudges in without his pet.

GENIS

"Raine... I'm bored..."

"Shut up and read the damn book." Raine is very angry at the moment because Genis won't stop whining.

"But I just finished it."

"Then go find Lloyd or something I don't care." Raine picked her brother up and threw him out the door the same way a mother might. Raine sighed again and picked up her book. "Fascinating... I had no idea that the Asgard had THAT there..."

"Hey Noishe!" Genis runs to the edge of the village and to go find his friend and sees Noishe... scaring... the guards. "Hey Noishe you know you're not supposed to do that. Sorry guys... Noishe's just excited about something." Genis jumps on Noishe's back and they take off. Genis not knowing where to. Noishe stopped outside the cave Lloyd was exploring and Genis hopped off. "What's in there Noishe?" Noishe whined and nudged Genis toward the mouth of the cave with his snout. "Ok, ok."

LlOYD

"Wow!" Lloyd pushes through the darkness and finds yet another great treasure. Not only has he found armor and weaponry, but now he's also found jewels. He pockets the shiniest and prepares to look for more of the dark openings in the cave. He stumbles forward then falls to the ground. He lands with a grunt then falls back startled. His exsphere started to glow. "What's going on??"

GENIS

"Lloyd you in here?" He calls out to the darkness. He hears nothing. He is about to go look for Noishe to scold him but stops. He calls out again and again this time just making noises and all sorts of words. He hears nothing. 'What's going on? Why doesn't this place echo... it HUGE!' He looks forward in the darkness and spots nothing for a time then see's a light in the distance. He carefully makes his way toward it.

LlOYD

"AUGH WHY IS IT GLOWING!" Lloyd panics more and more trying to take off the exsphere. He claws at it frantically to no avail. Suddenly the glowing stops as the exsphere totally dissolves into his skin along with the key crest. Lloyd sits once again in the darkness and frowns. What just happened. He sits there for a long time then feels something bump into him from behind. He yelps and turns around in time to see a fire grow from nothing. He screams and screams then starts to cry and then feels a hand on his head. He looks over to see Genis with the fire looking very scared himself. "Genis what are you doing here?"

"Oh Lloyd I'm glad I can hear you this place is-"

"I'm sorry you probably would have a hard time hearing after I was so loud I mean-"

"No its not that... this place... there's so much mana here that there's no echo... its amazing that we can even stand the pressure from it... can't you feel it?" Lloyd shakes his head then gets a funny look. He looks at his hand where the exsphere used to be then takes off the bandage that covered it. "Hey where's you're exsphere?"

"I'm not sure... It started to glow then it started to disappear and now its just gone... the key crest too..." Lloyd started crying again.

"Lloyd what's wrong?" Lloyd looked at his friend then dropped his gaze.

"It was my mother's... and now its gone..."

"So Lloyd... what are you doing here in the first place anyway?"

"Huh... oh I found this cave a while ago but I've been to busy with my dad to come by and explore..."

"Oh... well... what's it like?"

"OH MY GOD I found all this cool stuff I found armor and weapons and jewels... hey where'd they go?" Lloyd searches around the area finding nothing. "All those weapons just disappeared and hey do you see that light Genis?"

"..."

"Genis??" Lloyd looks over and see's no one there.

AUTHOR NOTES

Ok look... its not that I don't appreaciate the one review I've gotten... its just that if it's not that popular than there really isn't a point for me to continue writing this... I love this game a lot and I don't want to have to drop the story but... come on now... be a little more supportive... and to the one person who reviewed... thank you... I'll write at least another chapter and make it longer... but for now... god damn...
