Poison Ghost
In the town of Ruan, the gang heard a sad tale. The Water Fairy had vanished from the Red Tower, and a Dark Ghost had come and polluted all of their water. If something wasn't done to get rid of the ghost and find the fairy soon, all of the people would die of dehydration.
"We must save them," Lyle told everyone, "I can't bear to watch these people suffer any longer."
"I agree with Lyle whole-heartily. We must do everything in our power to rescue these poor people from all of their torment and misery. Let's go kill that nasty Dark Ghost," Rasha stated. With that, she marched towards the Red Tower with her head held high.
Fam muttered under her breath, "Suck up." Luckily, Rasha was to far away to hear. * * *
More squirrel writing was found in the Red Tower. Lyle motioned for Fam to take a look. "It says, 'blue is blue, green is green, and red is red'. It must be a clue to the placement of the gems."
"Which means absolutely nothing to us," Migel added, "Since we figured it out in the first tower." "It's not my fault, that's what the plaque says," Fam began to whine.
Rasha yelled, "Now look what you've done, you big oaf. Fang Girl's crying. My eardrums can't take much more of this. Why do you always say what is on your mind?"
Migel shrugged. "Habbit, I guess. I wasn't trying to insult Fam, I just was commenting on the stupidity of the builders to place this hint here. Do they think we're idiots."
"Some of us, yes," Rasha replied, "But not myself, or Lyle. Ihrie has enough brains to get buy, and even Fang Girl has more common sense than you."
"Let's just get going," Lyle said. He didn't want to see this little argument escalate into a big battle between Fam and Rasha. This wasn't the time or the place.
* * *
At the top, they found a large ghost. He laughed when he saw them. Migel stated, "You'd best still that attitude. On foot, the Great Migel has bested 50 mounted men at one time."
Rasha sweatdropped. 'The last time he said that, it was 25. This guy sure is full of himself.'
"Foolish mortal," the Dark Ghost said, "I am far more powerful than any of your kind. What makes you think that you can defeat me, a being of pure evil, in combat? Did that dratted Water Fairy send you here to fight? She will regret her decision before the day is through."
Lyle, Migel, and Ihrie ran forward and struck out with their swords. Rasha cast the Bolt spell on Dark Ghost, while Fam used Stronger on whomever happened to sustain an injury. Although, Rasha broke the pattern once when Lyle got injured. She decided to help him instead of casting her spell, hoping to get to him before Fam. If they hadn't been in a very large battle at the moment, there might have been a spat between the two girls over who had what job.
Soon, Dark Ghost knocked the three warriors to the ground with a spell. He then aimed a blast, hoping to take out Lyle in one shot. Fam, seeing the danger, leapt at him, and knocked the young warrior out of the way of the attack. Luckily, she was only mildly scratched.
"Fam!" screeched Ihrie. With that, she ran at the ghost with all of her fury. After knocking him around for about a minute, the ghost began to fade away into oblivion.
In hopes of impressing Lyle, Rasha decided to bury the hatchet for the next five minutes, and heal the young half-squirrel up. When that was done, she realized that she had four and a half minutes left to be nice, and decided to chuck it if Fam started up again. If she kept quiet, Rasha would do the same, but if she latched onto Lyle, there would be war.
Suddenly, the Water Fairy appeared. She stated, "Thanks to you, the poisons are gone from the water around Ruan. I now give you this, my treasure." She handed over the blue gem.
Lyle looked at the beautiful fairy. "Thank you for your help. We will put this gem to good use."
"I sense a dark time approaching," the fairy replied, "You are the only one who can stop it from coming to pass. Hurry to Elfrea, Artea is waiting there." Then, she vanished.
* * *
Back in Ruan, the gang held a strategy meeting. It was decided that they would set out for the Blue Tower in the morning, as they were all exhausted after the battle. They could all wait another day before heading to Elfrea. After all, only one Sinsitrael had been brought back to life.
So the next day, they warped to Jenoba, and began walking to the tower. Once at the top, they placed the blue gem in the pedestal. They did the same thing in the Green and Red towers as well. After the red gem had been placed, Fam closed her eyes, and began looking around.
"I can here it, the voice of the Shilf, the spirits of the winds. They are telling me the spell needed to teleport to the city of Elfrea, we can go at any time now," she whispered.
Migel mumbled, "I can't hear anything. Are you sure you're not just going crazy?"
Ihrie slapped him. "Stupid, she's only hearing things because she's a squirrel. They are the only ones permitted to travel to Elfrea, so humans are unable to hear the spell."
'I think I'm starting to like this girl's way of thinking,' thought Rasha, 'I like her way of dealing with this idiot. I guess the two of us can get along, if Fang Girl and I can't.'
Suddenly, Fam began to concentrate, as if she was casting the Warp or Escape spell, as they had similar gestures. A bright flash of light covered the group's vision. When it cleared, they saw the squirrel city of Elfrea standing before them.

Well, the Fam saving Lyle part honors my promise to the kawaii little cat girl. She got a little upset when we were doing the scene where Rasha saves him from Raider (see the Bloopers section on my website for more details). We meet Artea next time, let's see what happens.
For those of you who are curious, here is how I divided the Lufia spells for each character. . .
Rasha: Lufia's magic, with the unlisted spell Light (it's used by Selan in the prologue, but it isn't even in her spell list) in place of Boost (a heal all spell)
Ihrie: Jerin's spells, minus Elf (which warps you to Elfrea), with Courage (ups DEF of all) in its place
Fam: Max's spells, along with Light, Elf, Warp, Escape, Dead (revives a mortally wounded character), Boost, and Mirror (reflects magic cast on you back at the enemy).
I figured since Fam doesn't like to destroy things, and anger the spirits, I would do her a favor and give her the healing spells.
