The next morning AQL led them all out of the forest and they saw a mountain.
Merc 1: That must be it.
Noble: Yup, the heavens mount, at least part of it, Cathar should be on top.
Sinon: Lets get climbing.
Merc 2: Right. Actually, I feel lightheaded.
Merc 1: Me too.
Ranger: Yeah. Me too.
Noble: Me... Number after three.
They all fainted.
Sinon: Guys!?
Ranger: Ugh...
Ranger stood up and was on a floating island with one tree on it, the floor was grass and there were crystals coming from the ground there were tons of other islands which looked almost identical.
Ranger: Where am I? Where are the others.
Ranger saw a small piece break off of the crystal and picked it up.
?: Hey!
Ranger: Huh? Is that...
?: Hey! Ranger!
Ranger looked at the crystal.
Ranger: Noire?
Noire: Yup. Finally, you figured it out.
Ranger: So, where am I.
Noire: I'm... Not sure.
Ranger: Really?
Noire: Yeah. But something just appeared here, a list, it has several tasks on it. It says to unlock the cube. That helpful?
Ranger: Yeah.
A cube hovered spinning in the air, with a hole in the top, Ranger put the crystal in and a rainbow bridge appeared.
Ranger: Yes! Come on Noire.
Noire: Alright.
Ranger took the crystal and walked along the bridge and saw a reflecion in another crystal, it was of a girl, she looked like uni, only taller, and in a white and green outfit, they had blue eyes and yellow hair.
Ranger: Who is this?
Noire: What are you talking about?
Ranger: N-Nothing, its nothing.
Ranger walked to the center of the island.
Ranger: Anything else on that checklist?
Noire: Yeah, there is. Find it, and hit the target.
Ranger looked around and saw the girl looking at them and instantly turned around and saw a target on the bottom of an island near the one they were on.
Ranger: Found it!
They took an arrow and shot it at the target.
Ranger: Got it!
Another bridge appeared leading to the island where the target was on and they walked to the bridge and went up to the island and looked at the crystal they put their hand on it, suddenly, the girl appeared for one second glaring at Ranger.
Ranger: AGH!
Noire: Ranger, is something wrong?
Ranger: Its, uh...
They looked at the crystal and nothing was there.
Ranger: I just got surprised by something.
Ranger walked to the middle of the island.
Noire: Okay, now, have you been seeing strange things?
Ranger: Yeah, actually, I have.
Noire: Because there is a lever on one of these islands.
Ranger: Oh, yeah, I have, been seeing some things out of place...
Noire: Good, find that lever.
Ranger searched two islands and went to the island they had come from, and touched the notch where the crystal Noire spoke through had dropped through and felt a lever and pulled it. and walked back to the third island where they walked on the new rainbow.
Ranger: I wish I knew who she was.
Noire: What do you mean?
Ranger: I'll tell you sometime.
Noire: Fine.
Ranger moved to the center of the island.
Noire: So, you made it this far, but you've made someone very mad, face them.
Ranger noticed the island was very large compared to the others and saw a very large hunk of crystal on one of the sides, the girls image appeared glaring and the crystal shattered, leaving the girl standing there, with a spear on her back, it had a green staff with a drill on the end, they took it out and looked at Ranger with an unamused expression.
Ranger: So. You're mad at me... Bring it on girl.
Ranger took out their bow and dipped a dozen arrows in a bottle of red liquid.
Noire: Be careful. I'm reading on this paper and she is very powerful.
Ranger: Oh, well.
The girl ran at Ranger.
Ranger: Bring it on.
Ranger ran to a tree and jumped into it.
Ranger: Noire, can you tell me something?
Noire: Yeah, I can infuse this crystal with some power that you can use if you need.
Ranger: Right!
Ranger jumped out of the tree and ran and turned around to shoot the girls arms with four burning arrows.
Ranger: Ha!
The girl ran at Ranger and pointed the spear at Ranger who dodged and ran around the girl and shot their back with the last eight arrows and saw blood stains on the back of her dress. She turned around and threw the spear to the ground and a rifle appeared and she shot Ranger several times. Ranger accessed the power in the crystal and used its power to dodge the shots and run around the girl and grabbed the spear.
Ranger: Hah!
They put the spear in their bow and drew the string back.
Ranger: Take this!
The spear flew out and stabbed the girl and she disappeared and a crystal grew where she was standing.
Ranger: Huh?
The girl appeared in the crystal, smiling, the crystal grew and made stairs to another island.
Noire: Ranger, the paper says that you've proved yourself to be a knight of legend.
Ranger grinned and went to the staircase.
