Colette: WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Lloyd: Colette, what's wrong?

Colette: The author isn't back from vacation!

Lloyd: And we can't possibly write the story ourselves. Or can we?

Brandonglee123: Hey guys!

Colette: GASP!

Brandonglee123: I'm back from my 10 day vacation!

Lloyd: Yay!

Colette: Yay!

Chapter 9 is here! Okay, I'm back from vacation, so no need to fear. Let's hope it never happens again (it will…). Anyway, I'm sorry for the delay. Just because, this chapter is short. Pray for the extremely long chapter 10! Guaranteed to be longer than 5,000 words!!! YAY!!! Here we go! Chapter 9! But first, the disclaimer.

Kratos (still wearing the fairy outfit): Brandonglee123 doesn't own us. Namco does. He doesn't own Namco either.

Brandonglee123: Will you PLEASE take off the fairy outfit?

Kratos: NO! It's less humiliating than the PINK DRESS that's always written in ALL CAPS!

Brandonglee123: By the way, where is the PINK DRESS?

Kratos: I'm wearing it underneath.

Readers:…

Brandonglee123:…

Now, the short Chapter 9!

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

Lloyd and Genis were walking to the front of the village (or the back, depending on where you are…) when they heard a cry of help.

"Lloyd! Help!"

The 2 heroes rushed over… and saw Noishe.

"Hi Noishe!"

"Remind me why you bring him with you."

"I ride him here."

"Oh."

"Anyway, let's go! To the Forest!"

Lloyd and Genis were about to leave when unimportant Iselia person #4 stops them.

"Wait Lloyd!"

"What?"

"The mayor wanted me to ask you something. You know the North-East Forest that you always go through? Do you know the Desian Ranch that's in between? You haven't been going there, have you?"

"No, and why are some of your words bold, like this?"

"I'm not sure. But either way, make sure to NEVER go into the Desian Ranch and… oh… I don't know… visit a person there and upset the Desians and make them attack the village because you violated the non-aggression treaty!"

"I won't, okay? How about you, Genis?"

"Ummm… O-Of c-c-course n-n-not."

"Interesting…"

"W-w-what?"

"Genis stuttered!"

"N-n-no I d-didn't!"

"See! You did it again!"

"Sure I d-did."

"Never mind. To the forest!"

Lloyd and Genis left. Suddenly, Lloyd came back.

"Oh, and by the way. The forest is to the NORTH-WEST!"

Lloyd leaves again.

"Lloyd, are you sure?"

"No. What do I look like, a compass?"

"Well, you are round…"

SMACK!

"Owww…"

Lloyd and Genis headed to the forest. Genis saw it and pointed at it, but Lloyd denied it. Lloyd declared that he would know, because he went there every day. So, they traveled the world. After reaching an area blocked off by a wall of cutscenes, they returned to the area that Genis had declared the Iselia Forest. Genis was right.

"See, I TOLD YOU I WAS RIGHT!"

"No you didn't! I was the one who said that we should come here in the first place!" Shouted Genis.

"No you didn't!"

Genis sighed. Reasoning with Lloyd was like trying to make Raine sane. He gave it up.

"Anyway, let's go."

Suddenly, Noishe began to run away.

"That's right, Noishe doesn't like this place."

"If he doesn't like it, then how did you ride him here?"

"Uhhh… Well… IGNORING THAT, let's go."

"But Lloyd…"

"WE'RE GOING NOW!"

"…Fine."
