This will have some minor changes than in AoN. However I'll keep it to the story of AoN as much as possible. Oh yes, because this is a story, Adol will have more lines than he should and not to mention more about Ernst and his own missions. Anyway enjoy!

"Hmph, not bad. Mind you. You're still damn soft, but at least you've got some skill with a blade...I'm Geis. I'm an adventurer, but unlike you, I'm not too proud to be a mercenary. Keep going through here and you'll reach Canaan Island. There's a town just outside the ruins – you'll meet others from Europa who've washed up in this damn place. I don't wanna hear that you've stuck your nose where it doesn't belong. Mind your own business or you'll see this halberd again." Geis said to Adol, who just smiled that damn polite smile that just ticked Geis off so bad.

"I wouldn't mind seeing that halberd of yours anytime..." Adol quietly muttered to himself. It was no wonder he didn't speak much, for if he did, people would not think of him as the kind and polite adventurer that he was. Of course, Dogi knew all too well about this. However, this was only kept between those two very best life partners.

"What was that?" Geis hissed and Adol only smiled. He didn't know why exactly he didn't like that guy so much. He just did. Adol walked the opposite direction, heading for the Canaan Island. Geis headed for the Rhedan Village, where he could talk to the Rhedan Elders. He travelled to the Village where he was met with many cautious eyes. Although he didn't mind, he barely cared for what others thought of him anymore.

"Hey, boss. I'd like to talk to you about something. Bring your..." Geis looked at Olha who just hid behind her father in a shy and scared manner. "Whatever the hell that is..." He said, raising an eyebrow and looking at her judgementally.

"Hmph. You've got nerve boy. Coming into MY village and talking that way to me. To my daughter, the next priestess of the village." Chief Ord said, hissing at Geis, who just stared back at him at with a look that said he didn't care.

"Does this face look like I give a fuck? Anyhow, it's about the mirror of Zeme that was stolen from you. I think I know who stole it but...damn. I can't pinpoint their location. It's like they're in...HA!" He laughed out loud to himself as he realized. "It's like they're in and out of the Vortex...Damn. Brother made them especially for that purpose..." He muttered to himself.

"What exactly are we talking about here Sir?" Olha asked him, in a cautious manner while still behind her father.

"Three sprites. Hah, three handmade sprites..." He laughed to himself. "You'll know they're different from any other monster by the glow they have...this...Hah, it really does look like pixie dust. They are fairies that have magical attributes. They were created for unsealing the Vortex. For that they need the mirror..." Geis said, pondering on what to do next.

"Those might be homunculi. This...I see. Thank you for your information. If you want places to look...then...you can try first the Mountains. Or the other places associated with the three Emelas keys." Chief Ord said. Geis then nodded and shot up, he thought he saw a glowing red thing, or was that Adol again? "Alright. Thanks boss. Your information is very helpful."

"Thank you so much...mister...?" Olha said in a polite manner.

"Mister Man." Geis teased and smiled in an arrogant manner, before walking away. Olha looked at him with a frown and Chief Ord slowly shook his head.

"That man needs to learn some manners." Chief Ord said looking the way Geis went.

"Sir Adol will teach him one day, and he'll prove to that man...He'll show him what a real man is!" Olha said as she blushed. Somewhere in the Canaan Islands Adol smiled, although he didn't know why. Similarly in the Tres Mares, Ernst suddenly laughed his butt off, and again, he didn't know why. These things happened at the same time, right after what Olha said.

"DAMN YOU BASTARD, BTCH FUCK! THAT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE ANY SENSE! I KNOW YOU'RE LAUGHING AT ME! STOP IT!" He yelled to the sky as he suddenly became very angry and the worst part, he didn't know why. Geis blushed for some reason, he hated this feeling. He continued over the hills and far away. Then he reached the mountains and saw a glowing red thing at the top of the mountain.

"There you are, bastard sprite." He said, unsheathing his halberd. He easily treaded the mountain path and reached the top soon enough. "Hmph. Just as I thought." Geis hissed as he saw her carrying a fragment of a mirror.

"Hm! This should be safe here! Nothing ever comes here anyway! Hehehe!" Jue said, crossing her arms. "Hm? Oh! My Lord's bro-oh wait. He told me not to act so nice anymore..." She said to herself as she saw Geis running toward her with his halberd unsheathed.

"Get over here!" Geis said as he threw a talisman to lock them into a sphere, making sure she couldn't escape.

"Hahaha! Oh, someone want to play with Jue! Jue is ever so happyyyyy!" She said to herself, easily dodging the attack from Geis and clawing at his chest. Using her magic as an extension of her arm and as a blade at the same time.

"Damn sprite!" He said, his clothes ripping and showing off his fine muscular stomach. "Take this!" Geis threw a talisman that pulled her in and she couldn't escape, she was caught in a hold. Then Geis slashed at her and she put up a barrier just in time. Although it shattered completely under his force, she still managed to survive.

"OHOHOHO! You have improved dimwit! Jue applauds this!" She said, breaking free and flying quickly to his side, evading another attack and slashing him again. He grunted as his clothes were almost entirely ripped off now and he blushed slightly.

"Look! Look what Jue can do!" She yelled, her voice cracking into a husky yell as she glowed an ominous red. Then before Geis knew it, she was raining fireballs at his direction. He quickly dodged the attacks and jumped for her, swinging his halberd and cutting her wings slightly. Were it not for the fact that she had a barrier she would have been cut in half.

"AHAHAHAHAHA!" She laughed maniacally as she flew up and sent a barrage of fireballs at Geis. He quickly evaded, although much to his displeasure she was only using that as a distraction and he soon found himself bleeding by his arm. He then threw another talisman her way and although she evaded the talisman she was pulled in. Geis swung his halberd but then he felt a strong electricity surging through his body.

"A-AAAHH!" Geis screamed as he fell to the floor and couldn't move. Then, the barrier around them also dissipated. "D-Damn...s...sp...rites..." He muttered out what he could, although he wanted to curse at them more.

"Hmph. You have improved Geis. I never thought Jue here would actually be defeated for once." A familiar voice came, and Jue frowned. He saw the familiar figure of a dark skinned fairy with golden markings flying towards Jue. Then they flew off, Jue looking back at him with an angry face and Sera telling her something that made her frown even more. Suddenly, Sera stopped and flew back to Geis, perching on his shoulder.

"Hehehehe...Sleep well, beautiful prince." She laughed as she kissed his cheek and pushed him off the mountain top. He closed his eyes as he felt himself get scraped and bruised as he fell. Then he hit the ground, and it was the most sudden and painful thing he ever felt.

"Oh...G..Gah..." He tried to say as he tasted a load of warm metal in his mouth. He opened his mouth and let the blood ooze out, breathing heavily he couldn't even move any part of his body. He even struggled to open his mouth. He was damned if the creatures in the mountain path found him like that. He struggled to move even an inch but it was futile, then he saw creatures surrounding the area. He looked around nervously and tried hard to move, but he couldn't. Just then the creatures started to swarm, smelling the blood. The creatures were getting closer and Geis just closed his eyes. He heard a roar and then the clash of a sword. Geis opened his eyes to see a familiar red-haired swordsman swinging his sword and defending him from the creatures.

"Hey." Adol said as he smiled politely at Geis, who struggled to look up at him. He picked Geis up held him in a manner that made him uncomfortable. He had him bridal-style and went back to a forest sanctuary. By then, Geis had already recovered from the paralysis.

"Talk about dues ex machina...thanks." Geis said, blushing and looking away from Adol.

"That's fine if I can get to see more of your body..." Adol muttered to himself in a voice so soft, but they were in a sanctuary, anything could be heard. Although given how soft Adol's voice was, it was like a whisper. Geis just stared at Adol with shocked and wide eyes and his mouth agape. Then he remembered how tattered Jue left him and looked at himself, then turned red. He was basically wearing only pants, given how tattered his clothes were. Adol smiled at him, before getting up and leaving. Then, Adol stopped, looked back with a smile that was slightly arrogant, and winked at Geis. A gesture Dogi knew all too well that meant Adol wanted to see him again. Somewhere Dogi nodded and smiled.

"Argh...What...What the hell is up with that guy..." Geis asked himself, looking down and blushing.

~ Somewhere where Dogi is ~

"I always knew you'd find someone Adol...I...I'm happy for you man..." Dogi muttered to himself as tears started to fall down his cheeks. He started fixing part of the ship, when a thought suddenly hit him, a thought Adol was probably thinking as well. "Wait a minute...No matter what happens...I'll always be his BBBFF*..." Dogi said, looking up and the light shining down his face.

"Hey! Dogi! Stop posing and get to work!" Terra angrily yelled from afar and Dogi began to fix the ship.

"Can't you see I was having a moment! Fine! RAAAAHH!" Dogi said, slamming his fist into the ship. He then realized what he just did. "Whoops...this isn't a wall..." He muttered to himself. Then Terra proceeded to give him the scolding of his life.

~ Meanwhile in the Tres Mares (While Adol was flirting with Geis) ~

"You are to be sailed to the Altago Lands. The Romun King has asked me to get the plans for Altago. He's concerned about their sudden silence, after a while of trouble for the Romuns. Damn Altaginians have almost the same firepower we do...That Altaginian Falcon especially. Don't worry, we'll only be sidetracking for a little while. After that, we can go back to the" Agares asked Ernst who was sitting in the chair opposite of him. The two maids were at Agares's side, however Ernst could tell they wanted to be at his side, given the looks they were giving him and where they were looking at him.

"Yes Commander...AHAHAHA!" Ernst suddenly burst out laughing for no reason. Agares looked at him dumbfounded and confused.

"Are...you alright Ernst? What's...so funny?" Agares asked and Ernst couldn't stop laughing.

"AHAHAHAHA! That's so cute! He's so embarrassed!" Ernst laughed to himself, almost in the verge of tears and left the room. Leaving Agares dumbfounded and confused.

"Well, at least he's happy again..." Agares muttered to himself.

For those who don't watch MLP, BBBFF means Big Brother Best Friend Forever.

Deus ex machina is an unexpected power or event (or in this case, a person) saving a hopeless situation.
