FC : Where did we leave off ?
Mithos: You were criticizing us…
FC: I mean in the story
Mithos: Oh… I had genially captured the two heroes.
FC: Ok, yeah whatever.
So Lloyd was in a cage and Colette was forced by Mithos to do all the domestic chores that had not been taken care of for the past 4000 years. Every day, Colette was to bring Lloyd a lemon gel, a pineapple gel and boost up the energy level of his exsphere. And she would do that until Lloyd' project angelus exsphere was fully loaded. But Lloyd, even though he was dense, knew what would happen if his exsphere was at full power. Because someone was megalomaniac enough to tell him! (Mithos: The evil villain must always reveal his plans!).
For that reason he had picked up a common exsphere in the cage. And each time his exsphere was buffed up, he'd actually power up that puny normal exsphere.
Every evening, Mithos Yggdrasil would come and check his angelus exsphere and see no improvement. And that continued for a long time. Until one day, he made up his mind.
"The heck with it!" he said, "I'll just take it now and we'll see if we can do anything later if it doesn't work!" He called Colette and she came… and tripped and looked up. "Sorry…" she said. Mithos was in a bad mood that day and so he decided he would do something very sadistic. "You will operate the mana core which I will use to take your soul away and activate your brother's exsphere." He told her and laughed.
Buttons, there were lots of them. Red one, green ones, blue ones "PRESS HERE" ones and "DO NOT TOUCH" ones etc. "How do I operate it?" she asked, very confused. So much for his big bad plan, he had to do it himself! "Get out of the way you stupid girl" he said as he pushed her and pressed buttons here and there. The mana core started glowing. "At last, I will resurrect my fallen sister!" he said and was about to laugh when Colette tripped and accidently pushed him in. "Sorry…" she said.
"Damn you Colette Brunel…." He said until there was a mana flare and he disappeared into nothingness.
Well, while she was at it, why not save her brother. She went to his cage and opened it. Lloyd had noticed where Mithos would put all the gald he paid the desians with and took it all. "Where he is now, he won't need it" he explained, and they left the tower.
The forest was greener, the light was clearer, the monsters were weaker and the paths were altogether more visible. Ever since Mithos had died, everything was much prettier. Until… they saw the sword dancer who recognized them and therefore didn't attack.
"Hello Sword dancer" said Lloyd "Aren't you supposed to be in Iselia now?" he asked. The Sword dancer looked puzzled. "You do know that these are the Iselia outskirts… right?" he asked the brunette swordsman.
FC: CUT
FC: Do you two know you are lost again?
Lloyd & Colette: Err… yes?
FC: Do you know what the problem is this time?
Lloyd & Colette: Err… no?
FC: (rubs temples) You… have… just… went… in… the… wrong… DIMENSION! How do you do this? You get lost in Graochia and land in the tower of salvation. Fine, you only arrived somewhere that's only 500 miles OUT of the forest… ok… But now… How did you get your dimensions mixed up?
Lloyd & Colette: Err… we don't know?
FC: (Takes some aspirin) Whatever, the story's almost finished anyway.
Back to the tale.
"We're rich, but how will we go back?" Colette asked with worried puppy dog eyes. The Sword dancer couldn't resist. "Oh well, last time you didn't kill me more than I already was, so I'll tell you how to go home." Both children looked at him with expecting eyes. "You take the eternal sword, concentrate on your home and say three times There's no place like home" he explained. And Lloyd did it, he said the magic sentence three times and the appeared back at their cottage in which Kratos was crying. The evil stepmother Raine had died and his children were lost, he was the saddest person in Ozette. And then he saw his children and smiled. "Hi dad, we brought lots of stuff home", said Lloyd and showed the phenomenal amount of gald they had taken.
Kratos had tears of joy and looked at Lloyd and then, just to make sure, he told him this. "Don't die before me, my son". Now, he was sure that he wouldn't have to see this again. And they lived happily ever after.
THE END
Kratos: Why am I crying again?
FC: I already told you why. So just shut up and read the first chapter again.
Colette: So it is a happy en-
FC: -don't you dare say a word until I'm calm!
Lloyd: But-
FC: And that's valid for you too!
Lloyd and Colette: (nod and run away, really fast)
Mithos: why did I die?
FC: Because you're the evil villain.
Raine: Why did I die?
FC: Because you're also an evil villain.
Mithos & Raine: We are not dead!
FC: Yes you are, so shut up and get out of here.
Mithos & Raine: (storm away)
FC: Now that I have kindly listened to everyone, I will just say this to all my readers: I hope you liked the fic!
