Chapter II- Bad Omens
Disclaimer: Hm, I forgot to do this before. Anyway, Golden Sun doesn't belong to me…yada yada yada blah blah. But I do own Allamir and The Mars clan of Kiteria! Yay!
As the group neared Allamir, the clouds began to look threating. Mia tugged at Issac's sleeve. "Issac…don't the clouds look almost…reddish to you?"
Issac peered at the clouds more closely. "Whoa! How weird is that?"
Ivan joined the conversation. "I don't like it. I think it's some kind of warning."
Garet slapped Ivan on the back cheerfully. "You think EVERYTHING'S a bad omen! It's probably just some fire lizards or something."
Ivan groaned. "If you think fire lizards are a good omen, I'd hate to see what you would call a bad one!"
As he finished his words, rain began to fall. "See? It's just an ordinary thunderstorm!" Garet protested.
As if on cue, giant fireballs began to fall from the sky, as the rain slacked off. "Holy shit."Garet breathed in astonishment.
"Run!" Issac roared.
But they were soon outmatched. The fireballs almost seemed to be following them, so no matter how much the party turned, swerved, and back-tracked, the balls of fire gained on them, falling from the red-clouded sky in a endless ghastly march.
Issac quickly took charge. "Ivan! Use High Impact! Garet! Release Scorch to create a barriar! Mia! Use your dijinn and summon Boreas!"
Ivan then closed his eyes and drew on his Psynergy power, and used High impact to boost their attack.
"GAIA BLADE! RELEASE TITAN BLADE!" Issac yelled. The first fireball fell down and smoldered, due to the immese power of the Gaia blade.
The next one was approaching. With a war cry, Garet summoned Scorch, who made a protective heat aura around the tired group. Mia then called on in turn, Fizz, Spritz, Mist, and Hail. As the second fireball smoldered and went out, the now exhausted group saw the final possessed fireball approaching them. The others had all hit elsewhere, obvoiusly not being possessed to kill them.
With a swallow, Ivan used high impact again, while Garet summoned Forge, boosting Issac's attack even further. After attacking with the Gaia Blade, he yelled to Mia, "Now!"
Taking a deep breath, Mia nodded to her Djinn. Boreas appeared, and with his attack the final fireball was diminished.

The party re-grouped on a small hill, where Mia used a nut on herself, then healed the others.
With a shudder, Ivan turned west in the direction of Allamir, where the fireballs had come from. "Are you sure you still want to go to Allamir, Issac? If this wasn't a bad omen, I don't know what is. Even Garet agrees."
Issac frowned. "But I overheard from the same vendor you bought the map from that Allamir is the home of a group of Fire Adepts. I was wondering if we could ask them to assist us in our quest or at least tell us a bit more about Hesperia."
Mia nodded. "And the fireballs might not have come from Allamir anywhen. They could have come from farther west."
Ivan sighed. "Alright, you've convinced me. Let's go see these Fire Adepts."
Issac smiled one of his rare smiles and started up the last small hill before the town's gates.

Saturos smiled coldly. "We've snared them in our little trap."
Menardi laughed even more coldly. "They must have really thought we were dead, not suspecting anything even when the fireballs came, knowing we're Fire Adepts and could have caused them."
Saturos shook his head. "We cannot be defeated so easily, as they shall soon see."
Menardi nodded. "Planting the fake map-selling vendor in the market was one of your brighter ideas, Saturos. The merchant must have follwed our instructions to tell them to go to Allamir to seek the advice of the Fire Adepts that dwelled there."
Saturos smirked. "Imagine, not knowing that Allamir is the home of the all powerful Mars clan, Kiteria. No good soul would venture near here knowing this."
Menardi smiled grimly. "Now they shall pay for their stupidity."
