H-bomber: chapter 9 huh, time sure flies by. Well, hope you enjoy. (This one took longer than expected, usually I can do one chapter in a day, this took a week). Again, this one is probably crappy.
"It's been five long years hasn't it?" Genis thought to himself one day. He was now ten years old, and his best friends Lloyd and Colette are now fifth-teen years old. Bill stopped picking on him thanks to Lloyd. Genis was happy that he met Lloyd, though he was shocked when he learned Lloyd was raised by a dwarf, but hey, he was a half-elf so he shouldn't talk. Though he was still scarred that if Lloyd and Colette learned of his heritage, they would abandon him.
"Just like he did," he thought to himself absentmindedly. He was lying in the grass near the school, even though it was long over. He was waiting for Lloyd to get out of detention, and Colette had that Chosen business to take care of. Finally Lloyd exited the building and ran up to his best friend.
"Hey Genis, thanks for waiting for me," Lloyd said with a smile. Genis waved back and replied with a,
"Hey, no problem, besides I can't really get to the pond by myself, with all those monsters hanging around lately," yes, the pond that Lloyd showed him all those years ago turned into their little private getaway. Both of them laughed at the memory and started walking to the gates of Iselia. When they got to the gates they noticed two travelers were walking towards them.
The first one they noticed was a tall, burly man. He had long, blue hair and gorgeous blue eyes. He was wearing a white shirt that showed off his stomach and long pants. Strangely enough, he was wearing handcuffs as well.
The second one was much different. It was a girl about Genis' age. She had pink hair in pigtails, and a strange sleeveless short dress. Her eyes were cold, but Genis found himself attracted to them. The thing that stood out most though was the large battle ax strapped to her back. They walked right up to them.
"Excuse me children," the tall one said, "my name is Regal, my companion and I wish to immigrate to this fine town. Where may we be able to sign the necessary forms?" Lloyd then pointed out where the mayors house was. Regal then looked them both in the eyes, "Your eyes are strong and wild, and yet kind and gentle."
"Are you a poet?" Lloyd asked with a raised eyebrow. Genis wasn't paying attention, too busy looking at the beautiful pink haired girl, who stared back. Everything around Genis ceased to exist, as he stared at the girl before him.
"Is there something on my face?" the young girl asked Genis while tilting her head.
"W-what? N-no of course not!" Genis stuttered. "She's so cute! I think I'm in heaven!" he smiled, his heart content just by seeing this girl in front of him. She gave him a small smile in return, but just then Regal tapped her shoulder.
"Presea, please stay here with these boys while I check in with the mayor," he said as he went off to the mayor's place. After a few moments of silence, Lloyd decided to strike conversation.
"So, your name's Presea?"
"Correct."
"Well, I'm Lloyd, and this is Genis," he pointed at Genis, who only blushed in response.
"It is very…nice to meet the two of you," Presea responded emotionlessly, making Genis blush, "What is wrong Genis? Do you have a fever?" Presea asked while tilting her head. She then proceeded to touch his forehead.
"I think you're p-p-p-pretty!" Genis blurted out. Presea's eyes widened, taking her hand off his forehead, she responded,
"What is p-p-p-pretty?"
"It's a compliment," Lloyd answered for his friend who was too embarrassed.
"Oh, then I think you're p-p-p-pretty too Genis," Presea smiled. She didn't know why, but this boy she just met was able to make her smile more than once in one day. He was…amusing to say the least.
"Th-thanks Presea," Genis blushed as he looked at his face. Lloyd knew that expression. He was like that when he first met Colette. Though she didn't have to tease him like the way she does. If he didn't knew better he would say Colette like liked him. Lloyd knew just how to get them together.
"Hey Presea, want to come with me and Genis to this really cool pond me and Genis found in the forest?" Presea tilteded her head to the side contemplating.
"But didn't Regal tell us to stay here?"
"Yeah, but I'm sure he won't mind since we're with you,"
"What won't I mind?"
"Ah!" Lloyd screamed as he jumped away from Regal.
"Lloyd asked me to go to a pond in the woods with them, can I?" Presea pleaded, but you couldn't tell unless you looked in her eyes. Regal sighed.
"I don't see why not, you don't have to ask as long as you're back by nightfall."
"Alright, thanks Regal!" Lloyd yelled as he took the two younger kids by the hands and ran on to the giant pond. Regal liked Lloyd, but he was surprised no one asked about his handcuffs.
"I guess people don't really care about this kind of thing," he thought to himself as he walked to the inn. He was going to tell Presea where they were going to stay, "But I guess she'll be able to know anyway."
Lloyd, Genis and Presea after a long run finally made it to the pond. Presea was amazed at the site, but couldn't show any emotion on her face except one that looked impassive.
"Alright! Everyone in the pool!" Lloyd yelled as he started taking all his clothes off, save for his boxers, and went to jump into the pool, when he noticed Genis stuttering and pointing at something, with a nose bleed.
"Are you alright Genis?" Presea asked, causing Lloyd to look at her. He too started stuttering. She was in nothing…save for panties. Lloyd went up to Genis and covered his and Genis' eyes.
"Presea, why aren't you wearing a bra!?" Presea tilted her head in confusion.
"What's a bra?"
"Of course, she's too young for a bra!" Lloyd yelled at himself internally, "Just put on my undershirt!" Presea once again tilted her head, but decided to listen. She walked up to Lloyd's fallen clothes, found his red t-shirt that he wore under his red jacket (I think it's a jacket) and slipped it on.
"It's on," Lloyd sighed in relief. That was just uncomfortable. After the initial shock, Genis too stripped into his boxers and all three kids played in the 'pool' as Lloyd called it.
"We should get going soon Lloyd," Genis said after an hour of playing, "it's going to be dark soon," Lloyd sighed at his friend.
"Come on Genis, just five more minutes!"
"I agree with Genis, we should get going," Lloyd reluctantly got out of the pool and dressed himself, after having Presea hide in the bushes while she got dressed.
"No need to give you too many fantasies Genis,"
"Screw you Lloyd," Genis glared. All three kids went back to Iselia, excited about hanging out with their new friend(s) again tomorrow.
H-bomber: Honestly, this was the hardest chapter to write. (Maybe because I'm running out of ideas already)? I'm also not that satisfied with this one, tell me if it sucks or not m'kay. Well, two year time skip next chapter (Or maybe a chapter about Presea meeting Colette). Haven't decided yet, so we'll have too wait and see.
