The white dress
The green trees that surrounded the ruins of the tower of salvation rushed gently. The stars painted the black sky as the moon hung just above the horizon and the sun got ready to rise. A huff could be heard as someone fell to the dewed grass.
"I huff just can't huff get it right…" his brown hair was damp with sweat and the first rain of the morning. His chocolate eyes held determination but his eyes also showed tiredness. He grunted as his arms gave away and his two swords dropped to the ground followed by his knees giving out. He huffed again trying to catch his breath as he glanced to the flaming sword, Flamesberge. Its heat seemed to warm more then his limbs and the thought that his father had fought with it brought the boy even more determination. His eyes soon slid to the other sword. It was made of ice and let off a chilling feeling that he also found warmth in, or comfort, the Vorpal. He smiled when he thought of his two dads. He was a lucky kid. He finally regained his breath, somewhat, and stood looking at the tree. There was one mark, the mark he had to hit with magic. He huffed and got into a stance. The swordsman had recently found out that he had magical skills but hadn't told any of his friends. He slashed and his arms went slack again and he let go of the Vorpal and the Flamesberge got stuck in the wet bark. Lloyd grunted and yanked at his sword but he was so tired. The swordsman sighed and collapsed on the ground looking up at the new rain.
"Lloyd?" a deep soothing voice sounded behind the young boy. Lloyd turned slightly and looked to his elder. His spiky auburn hair was flat against his face and his ruby eyes looked like they were slightly worried. What about, Lloyd had yet to know.
"Hey Kratos." Lloyd said hiding his complete dead feeling. The blue clad man glanced to the tree and all the markings then the boy's swords. He searched the swordsman's face and Lloyd turned back to the starry/cloudy sky.
"What are you doing out here, you had everyone worried for your well being." Kratos said watching his son stiffly stand and tug at his sword again. He had to cover a small amused smile as the boy fell backwards and let out a growl of frustration.
"Training… heh like that's getting me anywhere…" Lloyd mumbled darkly now that his sword was stuck. Kratos walked next to his son and smirked setting his hand on the hilt and tugging it out without any problem.
"Heh."
"Ouch, thanks, my pride needed that…" Lloyd said laughing embarrassedly. His father smirked and turned sitting comfortably on the grass and looked to the sky.
"Want to star gaze with me?" Kratos asked not turning his head to Lloyd. Lloyd grinned and picked up the Vorpal before storing the two priceless swords on his waist and sitting next to his father. Both looked to the sky in a nice silence. Lloyd's mind started to wonder.
Lloyd shivered and looked to the trees. Kratos blinked and glanced at his child. "Are you cold?" Lloyd shook his head but never let his eyes leave behind Kratos. Kratos shifted uncomfortably and blinked as Lloyd now had a small sad smile on his features and he closed his eyes.
"Look behind you." It was more a demand then anything but Kratos ignored that and turned to the trees. Kratos gasped and his face went completely white. Standing a few feet away was a thin translucent woman smiling a soothing kind smile. A white gowned hugged her and loosened at her knees spiraling around. Her chocolate hair was tied back with a white scrunchy and a lovely white rose was in her hair. What caught Kratos though were her sparkling chestnut eyes that showed every emotion she held. His eyes watered as he scrambled to stand. She smiled warmly and her hands clasped loosely. Lloyd already had tears falling from his eyes but he backed off allowing Kratos his room. She stepped foreword and stood in front of him not sure what to do. Kratos' hand slowly rose to touch her face, half expecting her to disappear. He caressed her cheek and more tears fell.
"I-I've missed y-you so much…" she said. Her voice was like honey, smooth. She had many hot tears falling from her eyes as she watched Kratos shake from relief, worry, and happiness. Kratos pulled her into him, hugging her and kissing her forehead for the longest time.
"I-I can… feel your warmth again…" he knew he was being a liar but he felt something, maybe it was her love for him. Anna smiled and kissed Kratos' cheek then looked to Lloyd.
"Thank-you baby." She said half-crying half-smiling. Kratos looked to Lloyd as well and smiled kindly.
"Aw, it was nothing." Lloyd said modestly. His ex-sphere sparkled. Anna giggled and Kratos smiled even more. The three stood in a happy silence before…
"I must leave now." Anna said sadly but had a smile on her face. She walked to Lloyd and hugged him before slowly fading. "Kratos, Lloyd, I love you both so much… and love?"
"Y-yes, Annie?"
"I forgive you." She smiled warmly as Kratos returned it with a weak smile and one tear to match hers. Soon she vanished.

Lloyd yawned and looked around the camp. Everyone was asleep but one, his father. Kratos was gliding over the ground and towards the center of the ruin. Lloyd tilted his head and decided to follow.
The stars sparkled like two nights ago but the cool crisp wind seemed to pick up. Lloyd tried to keep track of his father but his hair wasn't helping. His eyes scanned the ruins and he caught sight of Kratos staring to Derris Kharlan.
"Kratos?" Lloyd asked finally coming close to behind his father.
"You should be asleep."
"I wanted to see where-"
"Go back." Lloyd flinched from Kratos' sharp tone but didn't move.
"Why?" Lloyd asked just as strong as before. Kratos didn't answer. Lloyd walked toward Kratos but Kratos' hand told him to stop.
"I'm going to Derris Kharlan." Lloyd choked on air as Kratos still didn't look at Lloyd.
"Why? Did I do something cause if I did I swear I didn't mean too, you ca-"
"It is my choice and way to redeem the dignity and justice I lost long ago."
"But…!" Lloyd couldn't think of anything to say as he choked and tried to hold back tears as he glared at the ground. Suddenly he felt himself in a warm soothing embrace. He coughed and looked up to his fathers comforting eyes. "… You can't want to… leave me…" Lloyd whispered shoving his face in his father's chest and wrapping his arms around him, Kratos hadn't heard Lloyd but Anna had… from inside his soul she could hear every cry feel every ache. Kratos stroked Lloyd's hair and suddenly felt a harsh cold wind blow. He knew Anna was screaming for him to stop this… but he was tired of running… or maybe he was running again, he couldn't tell anymore. He stepped back from Lloyd and sighed.
"Please… send me to Derris Kharlan…"
"…" Lloyd closed his eyes and for a moment Kratos thought Lloyd was going to yell at him… till the eternal sword appeared. Kratos smiled to his son. The light surrounded him and Lloyd opened his eyes. Kratos flinched from the hurt sad yet proud look his son's eyes held as Lloyd gave him a smile. Lloyd held back the tears now.
"I… love you, dad." His body felt uneasy and his head seemed to pound as he transported to the comet. His eyes though never left his small boy's location and his body felt numb.
"I love you too… my beautiful child…"
