Disclaimer: I don't own Golden Sun (even though its the best game I've ever played for GBA) Camelot and Nintendo own it yadda yadda...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ok I am going to finally end this God-forsaken story, since it has been a thorn in my side to finish it. I know how much you all love my flashbacks so I'm only going to have a short one in here, to finish where I left off on the last chapter, trust me, this one won't last more than a few paragraphs at best. Anyway, it has been a pleasure to write this. sort of... but thankfully it ends.

Chapter 7: Reunited

Mia awoke from her restful sleep, still drained mentally and physically from yesterday's events. When she awoke she found herself back on the beach near the Venus Lighthouse, Isaac still lifeless in her arms, but instead of night the sun was rising to the east, over the small waves that occasionally broke on the shoreline.

"Isaac. I remember now what you said to me in the Mogall Woods. You didn't want me to leave you, and I won't, but I said that I didn't want you to leave me either. Isaac, please come back to me," Mia whispered to Isaac's limp form before the depths of sleep grabbed her once again.

* Flashback, Mogall Woods, Day after the last flashback ended *

Mia awoke the next day to find her arms wrapped around Isaac, the both of them still hidden away in the deep thicket and trees of the Mogall Woods, with Isaac's head buried into her shoulder, still sound asleep. "Isaac, wake up, we need to find a way back to where the others are," Mia whispered into Isaac's ear causing him to slowly wake up. "Mia. what happened?" "Garet and Ivan came and gave us time to hide in the forest before they ran off to keep from getting killed by Saturos, Menardi, and Alex," Mia quietly replied to Isaac's inquiry, as she softly rubbed the back of Isaac's head. "Mia, do you think we'll make it out of here alive?" Isaac asked as he looked into Mia's eyes. "I don't know, I hope we do, but I don't know."

"Isaac!" "Mia!" Garet and Ivan collectively yelled as they scoured the woods in search of their two missing friends. "Ivan, can you see through all this brush?" Garet asked as he swiped at a rat that ran by. "Garet, I can see through all this as well as you can," Ivan replied a little annoyed at the question Garet asked him for the fifth time in the past hour. "Well I thought." "You thought! Man, that's definitely new," Ivan sneered as he blew away every brush that got in his way. "What's your problem?" Garet said as he grabbed Ivan by his shoulder. "I just don't feel like wasting our time talking when Isaac and Mia could be dead, or dying," "I thought you were supposed to be the optimistic one," Garet replied in a smirk which got him a smack across the head with Ivan's staff. "Come on Garet, we don't know what kind of danger the two of them could be in." Just as Ivan said that, a loud scream was heard throughout the entire woods, frightening every animal, even Ivan and Garet jumped.

"Mia, come on, if we don't move faster they'll get us, now come on!" Isaac yelled as he pulled Mia onto the rock formation he climbed on seconds earlier. "Isaac, can't we just fight them?" Mia asked as she grabbed Isaac's hand for support while going up the rocks. "There are too many of them, we'd be overwhelmed in second, were almost at the top, now come on," Isaac said as he pulled Mia up the last couple of rocks. "Is that. Garet! Ivan! Up here!" the two of them yelled as the looked down the cliff to see their friends. "Isaac, Mia! Are you two alright?" Garet yelled at them when he saw them. "We're being followed by a pack of wolves, we need to get down there somehow." "How about jumping," Garet interrupted but was quickly shut up by Ivan's staff. "Isaac, I think I might be able to lower you down with a tornado, but I don't know how long it will last." "We don't have much of a choice Ivan, do you think you can handle both of us on the same tornado?" Isaac asked as he looked behind him to see the wolves quickly approaching. "I'll try. Tornado!" Ivan yelled as he summoned a tornado next to the cliff. "Isaac, I just want to say thank you for everything, and I am very glad I could spend this much time with you." Mia was quickly shut up by Isaac wrapping his arms around her and giving her a short kiss on the lips before jumping off the cliff with her onto the tornado. "I'll always be there for you Mia. I promise," Isaac said as the tornado started bringing the two of them down to the ground.

* End flashback *

Mia was awoken by the sounds of several people running to the beach. "Mia! We might have a way to bring Isaac back!" Garet yelled as both him and Jenna ran down to Mia. "Come with us back to Lalivero," Jenna smiled as she stopped next to Mia. "How?" Mia asked simply. "Kraden is awake again, but now he's back to normal, but according to him, he still has enough power to bring to life one more person, which of course he agreed to do it to Isaac," Garet said as he helped Mia pick up Isaac. "How do you know that what happened to Menardi won't happen to Isaac," "He explained that the more evil a person is, the more evil their soul will be when they are brought back to life, but since Isaac is kindhearted, Isaac should come back normal." Jenna cut in as they started walking back to Lalivero.

"What took you guys?" Ivan asked as he opened the door to the sanctum for the three of them. "We were explaining what Kraden told us to Mia," Garet said as he pushed Ivan a little to get him to move. "Well hurry, I don't know how much longer I'll be able to keep the power before it leaves me for good," Kraden said a little nervously as they set Isaac on top of the table in the sanctum. Everyone stood around Isaac and Kraden as he mumbled a few things to himself and was covered in a white aura. "Well that's all I can do, all we can do now is wait." Kraden said as he sat down on one of the chairs to rest.

After several hours of impatiently waiting everyone had left to go back to the inn to get something to eat, except Mia who stayed by Isaac's side, occasionally doing a ply, even though she figured it wouldn't help, but she might as well try to do something. "Isaac. please come back to me, you promised you would never leave me." Mia quietly whispered as she let a tear escape her eye and drop onto Isaac's cheek. "M. Mia?" A voice quietly spoke out as Mia started to let more tears slide down her cheeks. "Isaac. Isaac!" Mia exclaimed as she wrapped her arms around his body. "Isaac I missed you." Mia quietly whispered into his ear as he wrapped his arms around Mia. "I told you I wouldn't ever leave you Mia, and I intended on keeping it," Isaac quietly whispered back as he and Mia both moved their faces closer and met in a soft and loving kiss.

::Sniffle:: that's the hardest thing I believe I've ever written. Well it's finally over, and I am sort of sad and glad, sad because that's the end, and glad because it's the end. Well I'd like to know what your opinions of the whole little story was, and any constructive criticism you can give me would be much obliged. Till we meet again.
