(Lloyd's POV)
Here we go, I do not own anything.
[Last time….
Martel Temple- Top floor
We arrived to the top of the temple to what is the Altar. According to Colette, to begin this Journey, we both had to pray to Martel to begin this journey. Colette and I kneeled at the altar and prayed to Goddess Martel. As we did, an Angel appeared in front of our eyes. He had angelic wings that were white and his suit was green. Green is my favorite color. 100 points to this angel for a green suit. I found out that this Angel is Ramiel, and he says he is Colette Angelic father as we started a conversation together.
Ramiel: Chosen of Regeneration, I am Lord Raimel. The chosen has arrived.
Colette: Father?
Ramiel: Yes my daughter. You are the chosen of regeneration. I see you have brought someone else with you.
Me: Good afternoon Mr. Ramiel. My name is Francelette and I was picked as a second chosen by the priest. Nice to meet you.
Raimel: A very polite chosen I see. Very well Francelette and Colette. I see both of you are ready to start the Journey of Regeneration. Before we get started though, look toward the window, and far outside in the land is the Tower of Salvation.
(Colette and I look through the window, and far away was the Tower of Salvation. It was tall like the Empire State Building in New York)
Raimel: That is the Tower of Salvation and the place to regenerate the world. In order to do this, you will need to release the 4 seals scattered throughout this land. The first seal is in the ruins somewhere in the desert. I know I forgot to give you two the cruix crystals. Here they come now.
(Two orbs come by. One of them was for me. The orb landed on my neck and created a cruix crystal around my neck. This started the adventure. Colette also got hers too)
Remiel: Remember, each one is guarded by a beast. As of now, I will see you both there at seal number 1. Good luck Francelette and my daughter, Colette.
(Remiel floats to the air and disappears)
This is the start of the journey. 4 seals to go until the world is regenerated. ]
[OPENING THEME: "We Are Los Angeles" by the Goon Squad

With the soul of a King
You can't lose..
We are united
Were undivided
We stand together never less
In any weather a Kings a King forever
Together we are Los Angeles!
We are united
Were undivided
We stand together never less
In any weather, a kings a king forever
Together we are Los Angeles! (X3)]
CURRENT SCENE:
I just prayed at the first altar at the Martel Temple and found out that this journey has begun. The first seal is somewhere in the desert ruins in the southern part of the area we are. After praying at the altar, Kratos tells me and Colette that we will be going back to Iselia. Me and Colette followed him and we are on the way, and I don't see Lloyd and Genis get a butt whopping from Professor Raine. Me, Colette and Kratos arrived in Iselia 10 minutes later.
[Iselia- Colette's house]
After arriving back in Iselia, we went inside Colette's house. Colette's house was very nice. Filled with lots of things including wooden chairs, nice flowers and everything else you would find in a normal household. We all sat down and began the conversation.
"Colette, Francelette, this is the Journey of Regeneration starting today. Remember, this is it. Once we start, there is almost no turning back. Colette automatically says yes, but you Francelette, why do you say. Do you want to continue?" Kratos asked me with a serious tone
I knew this would be a choice to make. I want to do this with Colette and many of her friends, but Kratos says Lloyd will get in the way. Im sure I want to do this.
"Kratos, Im going on this journey" I answered while looking at both him and Colette
"Alright then it is settled" Kratos commented as LLoyd knocks on the door.
Lloyd is back in Iselia ready to see us. He wants to join us but will Kratos allow this?
"Hello chosens" Lloyd greeted us as Kratos stood up
"Are you thinking of coming with us? You better not because you will be getting in the way." Kratos told Lloyd with a demanding look
"I want to go with you folks" Lloyd said as Kratos got upset
"This is not a field trip, but Ill let you go if you don't get in our way" Kratos said as Lloyd, Colette and I got happy.
Lloyd was happy to join this adventure and Im happy too. As we left the house, Lloyd tells something about a birthday gift for Colette. I forgot that Colette's birthday is the next day, the day we leave. The gift was to be a necklace of some type. Hmmmmmm…. very nice. After the conversation, they Lloyd and Genis wanted to leave for home. Lloyd has to go through the Iselia forest to get there. As I look forward to tomorrow, Colette and I stay with Kratos until evening. Looks like an adventure of a lifetime. I wonder how Jen and Holly are doing…
[Iselia- Outside of Colette's Hoiuse]
(LLoyd's POV)
After my visit as Colette's house, I found out that me and Genis can go with Colette and Francelette on the Journey of Regeneration. Me and Genis decided to head home. For me to get back, I have to go through the Iselia Forest which is located just outside the village. Genis also wanted to visit a friend. Works for me. We both headed out toward the Iselia Forest.
[Iselia Forest to Dike's House]
Upon arriving in the forest, Genis mentioned that his friend is somewhere in the forest. Was she lost? Or she sick? Genis mentioned that this particular friend was sick and needed food. Makes sense for the food, but inside a forest? Weird. We kept moving while I told him that I wanted to go home first. He agreed with me and we are off. We had to smash through some monsters toward my house, but after that, it was smooth sailing ahead.
[Dike's House]
As soon as we got out of the forest, I headed for my fathers house. My father is a half-elf named Dike. This is why the location is called "Dike's House". I went inside to greet my dad.
"Dike, I'm home!" I yelled as I entered the area.
Going inside the house, I got to talk with my father for a while.
"Hello my son. How was school?" My father asked
"It was good. We talked about the Journey of World Regeneration. We also have a new classmate" I told him.
"New classmate eh? Who is it?" My father asked with interest
"Her name is Francelette and she is one of the two chosens chosen by the Oracle" I told him
"So that means that there are two chosens this time around" My father said
"Yes, and I wanted to tell you that Im planning to go with them on this Journey of Regeneration" I told him with a serious tone
"Son, I know you want to go with them, but this is a dangerous journey. The desians are now not just trying to kill Colette this time. They will now also try to kill Francelette as well. Remember, if you do something to one side of the equation, you do the same to the other" He said to me making a reference to Algebra I.
I remember that my mother died on the hands of the desians and now they want to kill Francelette? She just started here in our world and she was a boy in L.A. She is innocent. Both she and Colette don't deserve this. I want to avenge my mother and save Francelette. I kept forcing my dad to let me join and finally 30 minutes later, he lets me. Useful persuasion skills came in time. After we were done talking, it was evening and we had visitors. It happened to be Colette, Francelette and Kratos.
(Francelette's POV)
Me, Colette, and Kratos decided to visit Lloyd at his house. His dad lets us in to the balcony. It was time to tell him the details on the departure time. We told him that we would be leaving Isleia at noon tomorrow. Lloyd also told Colette that he will give her a birthday present tomorrow. We left for Iselia moments later and prayed to Goddess Martel for a safe Journey. The dawn of the Journey of World Regeneration is coming.
[The Next Morning]
(Lloyd's POV)
It is now the next morning at my dads house. With the fact that he lets me go with Francelette and Colette on the Journey, he gives me a sword as reminds me of the "Dorven Vows", which are some rules. The one he forces me to remember is number 7 which is "Justice and Love will always win". We even used this as a victory quote. I hated this saying for some reason. Before leaving to see Genis's friend, I prayed at the site of my mothers grave. She died because of the desians and now they plan to kill Francelette and Colette. My dad hands me a sword, some apple gels and a helpful player guide. Very nice dad. It is time to see Genis's friend.
[Iselia Forest to Iselia Human Ranch]
We went inside the forest again. Smashing our way through the monsters that came in our way. When we got to the crossroads, we took a right turn toward the human ranch for Iselia. What I saw next made me worry….
[Iselia Human Ranch]
There were so many desians in the ranch as well as wanted people. Those who are wanted are thrown here into a human ranch. It was like jail for them and the desians were in charge. Genis is worried about his friend. We had to keep our distance so we decided to jump up on a ledge to see what is going on. What me and Genis saw next made us upset. Over the fence was an elderly woman. Turns out that she was Genis's friend named Marble. She was forced to do the work that the desians forced her to do. I wanted to help Genis get her out. Genis did a fireball spell to distract the Desians, but that led to the alarm and now that puts us on their hit list. Not cool. A couple of desians came out from the gate and we had to run for it. I told Genis to hide so we can do some sort of double team. I lured the desians to Genis and signaled him to run toward them. A battle started;
Party
Lloyd and Genis
Opponents
Desians 1 and 2
We had to find a way to defeat these guys without the help of the two chosens. Normally, Genis would be paired up with Francelette. I just hope she is ok and thinking about us.
The first desian looked at me ready to draw his sword at us. I knew these guys are not messing around. We drew our weapons and the combat began with Genis getting a fire spell ready. To provide cover for him, I hacked and slashed at both Desians. Genis's fire ball spell began, and the balls of fire hits both desians since I had them form one line. Both of them got hurt and I managed to hack and slash the first one until he could not continue.
The second desian was getting scared now. We were on the "power play" with a 2 on 1 assault. Genis got another fire ball spell ready. I covered him by trying to hack and slash the desian, but the desian said "no" by trying to break my guard by hacking and slashing back. Keeping my guard up, Genis launched his spell. My speed allowed me to try what Francelette does, moving to the back, smashing the opponent toward Genis's fire ball spell so that Genis gets the final hit. The attack works as Genis gets the last hit,
-Victory Quote-
Genis: Good moves Lloyd
Lloyd: Thanks, but I learned those from Francelette
Genis: Can we call this the Lloyd-France-Genis-lette combo?
Lloyd: Only if Francelette says so.
[Field]
We had to make a run for it back to Iselia. Wasting no time, I had to make a jump from the top to the bottom of the cliff. Alethic skills helped me out because I made it perfectly. 200 points for a perfect jump. We went running back to the village.
[Iselia]
As soon as we got back to the village, I had to run to Colette's house. When I got there, only Frank was there meaning both Francelette and Colette left early. On the table was a note from Colette and Francelette.
- Dear Lloyd,
We both have begun the Journey of Regeneration and left the village early. The Journey is a dangerous one, but we will make sure to regenerate the world. Thank you for the 18 years (plus 1 day) we have been together. Don't ever forget about us. Thanks again.
-From your childhood friend, Colette, and the second chosen, Francelette-
Even though I know Francelette for just a day, I bet Kratos is hiding something about himself as well as the fate of Francelette. I know what happened to Colette because Ive seen it, but is something worse planned for Francelette? Will the Desians kill her? She is a young 18 year old and physically disabled. I want to go and protect both of them….
[Closing theme: Colette's Theme song]
