Spirit Room

Disclaimer: I own nothing from Wild Arms 3 or Wild Arms 2. The title of the story and the chapters are not mine either.

Summary: Evil seeps through Filgaia as darkness corrupts much of the land. The Prophets are transported into the Filgaia of WA2 and later, so are the heroes of WA3. What is it that the Prophets are attempting to succeed by doing this?

A/N: This is AU, and they are transported when they go to sleep, the night before they go to that place of Clive's father-in-law (Professor). This is also going to be Virginia/Jet, Lilka/Ashley, and Colette/Tim. I really don't like Marina that much… ^__^

Chapter Four: Goodbye to You

"So are we leaving?" Virginia asked, impatiently.

"Not yet… Gallows still has to get up," mumbled Jet, leaning back on his chair.

"…" She sat down and sighed.

"What?"

"Huh?"

"What's the matter? You don't sigh a lot unless something's up."

"Observant, but nothing is wrong, or not now at least," she sighed again.

"Really…"

Virginia pulled a face and closed her eyes. The amicable silence that followed was long, and stifling.

What happened? I can't recall it… Not quite all the way, at least… I just remember having this weird dream… Oh god… This is not good…

They left, an hour later, headed to the town of Meria.

"The Pillar still isn't talking, milord," murmured one of the Mercs.

"Is she your only source of information?"

"No sir, but she is our best."

"Then concentrate on the others, if the Baskar," here, he spat the word as if it were poison, "won't talk."

"Yes, milord."

"er… Ashley, this girl says she wants to speak to you," Kate said to the blue- haired leader.

"Who is it?" he replied.

"A girl with brown hair."

"Lilka?"

"No, she's not. She's wearing a violet dress and has two ARMs," said Amy, confidently taking over. "Her name is Virginia."

"Oh… I'll be down in a second. Can you call Lilka and Tim up here too?"

"Sure," she replied, loftily.

"Thanks…"

Ashley walked down to the elevator and met Lilka and Tim at the ground, talking with the Drifters.

"Have you guys found any leads?"

"Well, this Merc told us that the Prophets would be found at the very center of this map, and we need a way to get there," explained Virginia.

"Alright…" Tim turned to Ashley. "Can we take Lombardia? Please!" he pleaded.

"I… Ask Kanon or Brad…"

"Okay!" he jumped up and got back onto the Chateau.

***

An hour later, they were all on their way to this strange place, in the middle of the map. Ashley, Brad, Lilka, Tim, Kanon, and Marivel, along with Virginia, Clive, Gallows, and Jet, rode in Lombardia.

As they reached the island, they spread out to search. Suddenly, Lilka shouted, "Here it is!"

They all walked down the steps of the great cave.

The sight that greeted them was both gruesome and thrilling, chilling them to their very bones.
