Disclaimer: Final Fantasy 3/6 is still not mine. I'm working on it as you read this. However, Kelos is mine. I made him up. Don't get any ideas based on his name, because he, in turn, is a parody.
*As Terra and Setzer land on the Elemental Isle, there is an earthquake.*
Setzer: (Imitating an airline pilot) Err…we're experiencing some turbulence.
Terra: (Whaps Setzer) Learn the difference between an earthquake and turbulence.
Setzer: (Rubbing head where hit) Damn, you hit like Sabin…only harder!
Terra: (Sees someone ahead) Who's that?
Setzer: (Smirking) Looks like a resident.
Terra: (Whaps Setzer again) Don't mean to be rude in this fanfic, but my commonly mild personality might be amplified this chapter. Anyway, Sir, who might you be?
Man: I am merely a fighter…who asks?
Terra: Terra Branford, Half-Human, Half-Searching.
Man: Searching…sounds like a new race…wonder if they came from Kefka's Ruins…(shrugs)
Setzer: You still haven't identified yourself…
Man: Oh, I'm sorry…I am Kelos. Kelos Coan Feix.
Setzer: Kellogs Corn Flakes? (Nudge Terra, whisper) Looks like you're not the only 'new species.'
Kelos: No, you dimwit, Kelos Coan Feix. I am a fighter, and the only resident of this island.
Terra: So, you're the one who lives on the Elemental Isle. Have you seen any unique looking creatures near here by any chance?
Kelos: Yeah…You two look unique. However, if you are talking about the ancients, I've seen a couple of statues of them. They're deep within the caves of this island. And…DON'T NAME PLACES YOU'VE NOT VISITED BEFORE WITHOUT CONSULTING IT'S RESIDENTS BEFOREHAND!!!
Setzer: Tell that to the narrator…
Terra: Shut up, Setzer. The Narrator is only running out of names because that's his only weakness…names. For example, look at Kelos. Who in their right mind would name anyone such a thing?
Kelos: I like my name.
Terra: Stay out of this!
Setzer: However…I was badly named too, so you gotta give Narry a break…
(Rumble from above sounds like a deep voice clearing throat): If you don't mind, continue the quest…
Terra: (To Setzer, accusingly)Hey, I thought I told you to to stay on the airship!
Setzer: But what about your safty?
Kelos: I'm pretty strong…
Setzer&Terra: Shut up!
Kelos: Damn…
Terra: Alright, now we need to continue. Setzer, back to the ship NOW!
Setzer: Fine. (sob, flee)
Kelos: You seem cruel.
Terra: Blame the narrator. But I hear it's only this chapter anyways.
Kelos: So, you'll likely lighten up in next chapter?
Terra: Probably. Now what was your job again?
Kelos: Lemme see…(Shuffling cards)…Investment banker, no…Gourmet Chef, no…AHA! I'm a Wandering Fighter. I hope to support your mission to find the espers
Terra: What espers?
Kelos: (mutter) read too far into script, will be exposed for sure…(louder) My alternate occupation is a mind reader.
Terra: Oh, ok.
Kelos: Now, since we wasted this chapter with petty nonsense, should we start on the foot journey, or wait until next chapter?
Terra: Would you rather we start with me being rude, or back to my regular semi-polite, quiet, shy self whom barely found out how to love a few weeks ago?
Kelos: Good point…We shall begin in next chapter.
And so the foot journey begins…
Terra&Kelos: NOT YET!!
In our next chapter.
Terra: That's better.
Where Terra's back to the regular, semi-polite, quiet, shy self whom barely found out how to love a few weeks ago.
Kelos: Déjà vu…
Will the espers be on this island? What does Kelos call this place anyways? How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?
Find out in Part 3 of Terra's Journey!
