Me: I could own Rune Factory if I could find a way to open it up and hack and reprogram the game to *ramble* *ramble*

Raguna: Sorry about that he does that a lot. He definitely does not own Rune Factory.

Holding his newly acquired Toros Cave pass Raguna started thinking about the strange girl. The villagers told him she was either a ghost that haunted the ruins or a spirit guardian. Only Melody suggested she was a normal person. He wondered whether or not to trust the enigmatic girl and her so called predictions.

Shrugging he entered the cave.

Toros Cave was unusual. The snow and the fertile soil seemed to be in harmony with one another. He read that Toros Cave had an eternal Autumn climate but it felt more like winter. He was glad he had thick clothes because he really didn't want to head back.

Curiously he walked over to a patch of soil. He took some n his hand and sniffed it. It smelled of bugs dead wood and grass and many other things. The soil was fertile enough to sustain life. He wondered how such a thing could exist in an icy place like this.

Thats when he noticed two demon like monsters inspecting him. They were checking if he was a threat or not. Answering their thoughts Raguna drew his sword and shield. Seeing that as a challenge they charged at him. Raguna then dashed between them and slashed the right one while knocking back the left one with his shield. The slashed demon retaliated with it's spear but Raguna dodged to the left and cut the spear's handle. He slashed the demon again beating it. The one that got knocked down was getting up but he simply stabbed it.

When both creatures faded he noticed light coming from another machine that summoned monsters. They were exactly the same as the ones he saw in Carmite. I started lighting up again meaning it was gonna summon more, not wanting that he slashed the machine until it broke. Wiping his sweat he continued through the cave.

After awhile he entered a room with ice everywhere. The land had vanished under the ice and snow. Whilst marveling at the beauty of the frozen wonderland a fireball narrowly missed him.

He looked to the right and saw a monster with a staff guarding a generator(he thought that name would fit). He drew his sword and prepared to attack but before he could a beam of water hit the monster and the generator behind it.

"You're slow there buddy boy!" said a cheery voice. The owner of the voice appeared and revealed Lucas "oh its you Raguna ol' chap."

"Lucas?!" Raguna gasped Why would a poet hang around in a cave full of monsters? Then again the magic did come from him

'Thats me' Lucas laughed Whats he doing in here? Does he want the White Stone too?!

"What are you doing here?" They both asked at once.

"You tell me first"

"Fine I go first" Raguna said "I need to find a treasure here." Obviously a lie but he couldn't tell him the weird truth.

"I see" Lucas said "Then you know the rules Raguna. Water become the energy to pierce my foe! Water Laser!" Rivals for the stone must be defeated in combat. If not then the stone will not appear.

"eh?"

Then Raguna narrowly dodged a Water Laser spell aimed towards him. "What the hell!" He said as he dodged another Laser. Angrily he charged at Lucas. Was he working for Kruscior all along? He used his shield to block a Fireball and he slashed at Lucas who dodged. Then he cast the Earth Spike spell at Raguna. Raguna jumped over it but only narrowly escaped the Swordstorm spell.

"I'm sorry about this Raguna.' Lucas said 'But I can't let you get the White Stone."

"I'm not after the White Stone!" Raguna said

"Wah?! But you said you were after treasure!?"

"Well no that one. Besides do you really believe that Legend?"

"Off course not! But its the only thing that'll ever get Rosetta to marry me so I have to try! Wind become my blade and slice through my foe! Swordstorm"

"I don't want the damn stone! Earth on my feet become the spike that impales my foes! Earth Spike!"

The two spells hit each other creating an explosion between the opposing elements.

"Really!?" Lucas asked unfazed by the explosion. "You really don't want the Stone?"

"Yep"

"Really really?"

"Yes"

"Really really really really?"

"Shut up already"

"Yes captain!"

Raguna and Lucas continued on through the cave. Thanks to their teamwork they easily defeated every monster that they encountered. After many rooms they reached one that had a flight of stairs.

"Stairs?" Raguna thought aloud

"Ancient people used to dwell in these caves." Lucas replied "They probably made these to expand their homes." Then he pulled out a ball from his pocket and it slowly started to glow with energy. After it was completely blue Lucas tossed it down the stairs.

"What was that?"

"An orb thats laced with Retornen. I charged it with my Rune Energy that way I'll know if there are any more nasty beasties down there."

"You charged it?"

"Yeah. You know when you swing your sword you put energy inside to make it stronger. I just put energy inside the same way."

"Is it possible to use Rune Energy without items?"

"Yeah. Magic off course. The other way is charging a medium with energy then releasing the energy you're containing. Understand?"

"Not... really"

After several more monsters and monster generators they encountered a frozen door. The dark had glyphs and texts on its side. There were ancient drawings including a sword, a stone and a huge beast.

"To get the stone I have to battle the beast." Lucas said "What a let down."

After he said that the doors opened to reveal a huge chamber. Everything was made of ice. Carvings on the frozen ceiling made the place more amazing than it already was. Although destroying the whole beauty was a huge beast. It had a lion like body and goat horns.

"A chimera!" Lucas gasped "Hey Mr. Chimera! You're supposed to be extinct!"

The beast just roared at him angrily.

"oh well" Raguna laughed "some monsters just don't listen to reason."

"Lets take it down so I can get my stone!"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lucas cast an Earth Spike spell while Raguna charged at the Chimera. The beast roared and charged at Raguna head on. At the last moment Raguna swerved to the side and the beast was hit by earth spikes. Then Raguna slashed the side and went under to slash it again. Angrily the beast tried to cut Raguna but he blocked it with his shield. The Chimera started charging blue energy with his mouth. He released the energy and a water laser was fired at Lucas. Lucas dodged it but the beast continued the attack at Raguna who was barely able to block the beam.

Raguna got up and charged at the beast again. The beast was readying another Water Laser so he had to act fast. He reached the Chimera but before it could beam him he whacked it's head to the side. Then he continuously slashed the exposed neck. As it began to turn its head to him he jumped to the side as the beast got hit by several Fireball spells to the face. Finally Raguna did the finishing blow by slashing the Chimera's back.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As soon as the beast fell light shined near Raguna. A small white stone appeared and Raguna took it. It was simple and had nothing else to it, but Raguna thought it was purest thing he ever saw. "Purity" he thought "Thats what this stone symbolizes" He handed the stone to Lucas who shook his head.

"The Stone chose you." Lucas said "I'm not worthy yet. Remember something Raguna. I will take the stone from you! I will prove myself worthy of Rosetta's hand!"

"You could always buy it for 100,000,000Gs" Raguna laughed

"Stop ruining the cool rival moment!" Lucas shouted

Laughing they headed towards the door. That when they each made one crucial mistake.

Raguna stopped to admire the icy room one more time. He paused for awhile to view the frozen beauty. While Lucas continued walking. He didn't bother thinking of using the Escape spell until he went past the doorway. As soon as that happened the door shut on Lucas, trapping Raguna inside.

"RAGUNA!!" Lucas called "Are you okay in there?"

Raguna didn't answer because he stood face to face with the man he was searching for.

"Oh?" Kruscior said "Raguna is an interesting name. Much better than your last one."

"What was my name?" Raguna asked

"Who cares? You're about to die anyway"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kruscior drew his maroon blade and shield and charged at Raguna. He blocked the blade with his shield and his sword clashed with the maroon shield.

"You've got new toys! How delightful!"

Then Kruscior disappeared and reappeared behind Raguna but he anticipated that move and had moved his shield behind him for protection. Then Raguna swiveled around and started slashing at the insane man. Kruscior had been surprised by Raguna's quick thinking and was caught off guard. Thus he was barely able to block Raguna's assault.

Kruscior moved back and shouted "You've gotten stronger but it looks like play time is over!"

His blade began to glow and slashed the air and a shockwave appeared heading towards Raguna who barely dodged it.

"How did he do that?" Then Raguna remembered what Lucas had told him earlier. He then charged his strength into the blade as if he was about to slash then he released that energy and slashed. A shockwave headed towards his foe who was too surprised to block. Grunting his enemy stood up and prepared for another slash.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Flame rise and become the ultimate weapon to burn my foes to oblivion! INFERNO!" Lucas shouted blowing the door down.

"Looks like we're gonna hafta reschedule!" Kruscior said telepoting away.

"Raguna are you okay?" Lucas asked "Did anything happen"

"No I'm fine" he paused "and nothing happened"
