Disclaimer: I don't own Golden Sun!
A/N: I'm on a roll, and I'm posting chapters like there's no tomorrow! *Grins* Anyway, the end is in sight! But bear with me!
Because of the angst, I've upped the rating, just to be on the safe side! Its gonna be nasty...VERY nasty! Please don't say I didn't warn you! (I am SO gonna get flamed for what I have done!)

"Where are you taking us?" asked Karalen weakly, as her and Piers were dragged from their cells.
"Lunar Sanctum, to wait for you friends." Said Seth.
She hung her head. This was bad.
-
Ivan ran up to Isaac, and hugged him. "I thought you had turned on me!" he said.
Isaac embraced him. It felt so nice to be with his old friend.
Behind him, David, Selena and Saturos stepped off the ship.
"David!" Exclaimed Leo. He ran to embrace him, and David grinned at him. As they hugged, Mik looked at them jealously. Saturos followed suite.
-
"How do we get to Lunar Sanctum?" asked Isaac.
"Grandfather mentioned a rune that could be teleported from, within Sol Sanctum." Said Becca.
Isaac thought for a minute. "I know! There were two symbols, one of Sol, the other of Lunar. I bet THAT'S the rune where we can teleport from!"
"So, we sail to Vale?" asked Jenna.
Isaac nodded. "But we leave NOW! According to Selena, hostages are involved. Their lives are depending on us."
-
"Felix, don't do this!" yelled Piers, as he was chained to a table. Suspended above him was a block, held by a chain. From the block, pointing downwards, were very sharp spikes. Karalen was on a similar table to the side of him.
Felix looked at him. "I have to. Don't worry, if Isaac and Ivan cooperate, you will be fine." There was a look of sadness in his eyes, no the less.
Alex appeared. "We have another...tool to bargain with!" he smiled coolly.
Seth brought in Shadow. He was trying to teleport, but his Psynergy had been binded.
"How long did you think you could fool me?" Alex asked the youngster.
Shadow snarled. "They won't cave. Isaac is too strong."
"Oh? But is Ivan? Selena? Are they too strong?"
Mia entered. She saw the three now chained to their respective tables. She glared at Alex. "What will you achieve with this?!?" she demanded.
He laughed. "I am merely going to call their bluff, that's all. I thought you would like to see Isaac suffer for killing Garet."
"It wasn't Isaac! It was Se-" Shadow shouted out, but a blow to the head from Seth rendered him unconscious.
Mia froze, and then acted normally. "Just don't hurt them, Alex." She warned.
Outside, she held her heart to her chest. She wasn't liking this. And Shadow had said it wasn't Isaac. But then, he WAS working for Isaac secretly.
Who was telling the truth?
-
They stood outside Sol Sanctum. "Jenna, Mik, you two wait here." Said Isaac. Saturos, you will guard Becca. Selena, Ivan, David, Leo, do you all have your pendants? Good. In we go."
Once they were in, Jenna sat down n hugged her knees. Mik sat beside her. "They'll be fine!" he said.
"I know, but what about Garet? I always thought we were indestructible after all we had been through. But now...mortality hits you hard."
Mik nodded. "Leo..." he whispered.
-
"Are we ready?" asked Isaac. They all nodded. "Ok, lets go to Lunar Sanctum!" They all stepped onto the rune, and everything went white.
Ivan blinked a few times. He looked around. Everything was so devoid of life, of colour, of happiness. Ahead, he saw a temple. On closer inspection, he saw on the cobbled circle in front of it, three tables.
"It used to be for show. The people who lived here loved nothing more than a messy execution!" Alex appeared in front of them.
"Piers!" Breathed Isaac.
"KARALEN!" yelled Ivan.
"Oh God, Shadow!" whimpered Selena.
Saturos had already made himself scarce with Becca. They watched from the undergrowth.
"He can't get that power, or we are all doomed!" whispered Becca.
"My demands are quite simple." Said Alex. "First, I want the four keys. Secondly, I want the Solar Adept. Thirdly, I want the energy from Mars Lighthouse. For each of those you give me, a life will be spared."
"DON'T DO IT! HE'LL KILL US ANYWAY!" yelled Shadow.
"He's beginning to irritate me!" snarled Alex.
"ISAAC! PLEASE STOP HIM! WE DON'T MATTER!" added Piers.
"IVAN! I LOVE YOU!" shrieked Karalen. "BUT DON'T LET HIM WIN!"
"ENOUGH!" bellowed Alex. He sighed. Felix stepped out, and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Come on, lets get this over with." He said.
"Felix? Oh, I'm not even gonna ask!" moaned Ivan weakly. He didn't protest when Felix took his Pendant.
"You won't do it!" snarled Isaac. "Felix wont let you!"
"You don't think I'm serious, do you? Very well, you need persuading." He stepped forwards, and pulled a lever.
One of the spikes fell.
Karalen screamed, and turned to see the site next to her. She cried hysterically.
Felix looked away.
Seth grinned.
Selena sobbed, and David threw up. Ivan fell to his knees, and Isaac froze. Leo clutched onto Selena's arm hard.
"YOU KILLED HIM!" screamed Karalen. "YOU BASTARD!"
Piers was dead.
-
Mia had had enough. She got her bearings together, held back her tears. This was for Garet, and for Isaac. She picked up her old staff, and after having watched the horrific event, stepped out behind Seth. She clubbed him on the back of the head. He slumped forwards. She crept by, deliberately not looking at where Piers had been laid. Shadow looked at her, as she undid his bindings. She then went over to Karalen, who was crying and did the same.
Shadow stood up, and took Karalen by the hand.
"Go!" hissed Mia.
They nodded, and ran into the grey shadows.
-
Ivan had seen everything that was going on behind Alex. He glared at him, still shaken very badly.
"You are one sick freak!" he said.
"I could kill you if I wanted to." Warned Alex. "You are no match for me!"
"No, but no matter how powerful you are, can you dodge an arrow pointing at your head?" Alex turned, and saw Mia, pointing Seth's crossbow at him.
"Now, now Mia. I AM surprised."
"You killed Garet! You killed Piers! YOU'RE GONNA PAY!" she was getting hysterical. She didn't notice Alex's hand turn blue.
David did. "MIA!!! WATCH OUT!!!"
Too late. Alex hand shot forwards and before she could react, a spear of ice was stabbed through her.
Alex turned, and went up to the temple with Felix, who handed him the pendants.
"I WILL get that power. NOTHING can stop me!"
And he was in.
Isaac ran forwards to Mia. He held her.
"Mia..." he said shakily.
David knelt down beside her. "Aura!" he said, his hand creating healing flames. "Its no good. The wound is too severe."
"Isaac, stop him." She said weakly. "He cannot win. But thank you, for being such a good friend. What I did to you was-" she paused, unable to breath properly. She exhaled. Selena leant forwards. "Mia, I'm sorry. I tried to stop this...I failed."
"No you didn't...but I-I"
Mia gasped. "At least...at least I will be with Garet again..." her head slumped. Isaac gently closed her eyes. "Thank you." He whispered.
Tears pouring down his cheeks, he turned to the temple.
"ALEX!" he yelled "YOU ARE GONNA PAY!!!"
-
A/N: Death. Angst. Tragedy. THIS IS TOO DARK! I was nearly in tears when I was writing Mia's scene at the end. *Sob*
And Piers - that was for the shock effect. Did it work? Did anyone see that coming?
And now, I'm gonna sit and wait for the flames! But I needed to write this and take a risk. Selena is SO gonna kill me for this...
And yes, I DO think Alex could be that cold! I will go into Why I think that next chapter.
