Disclaimer: I don't own Golden Sun!
A/N: FINALLY!! Fanfic is back up! I'd written the last chapters DAYS ago, and now I can post them! YAY!! *Does Happy Dance*
I'm guessing no one expected so many characters to die. It was mainly for the shock value, and I feel REALLY depressed writing it. I've done it to get the reader to hate the enemy (hopefully), but for those who hate Piers, Mia and Garet; I guess they're pretty happy!
Ugh, action-based chapters are much harder to write than romance and angst! I'm not too happy with this chapter, but it's the best I can do, so *shrugs* what can you do?
Please don't desert me! It will be good in the end! And please REVIEW!

Becca pried herself from Saturos, and walked up to Isaac. "We have to hurry." She said. Isaac looked down at her, and wiped his eyes. Mia was gently laid on the floor, with Garet at last.
Ivan was holding a weeping Karalen. Isaac looked at him. "Send Karalen, Shadow and...Mia back through the rune."
Karalen nodded. Shadow picked up Mia, and they slowly walked towards the rune. IN a flash of light, they were gone.
Leo sighed, and took Selena's hand. "We need to be careful," he said. "We still have people waiting for us. Lets go back to them once this is over, kay?"
Selena nodded. If she DID survive this, she was gonna tell Jenna what she meant to her. She needed to.
David gripped his staff. "Seth...he can't get away with this..." he murmured. Saturos slung an arm around his shoulder. "He wont, and if we make it, I promise to take you to the Proxian Mountains. When the sun sets, it the most beautiful thing in the world, especially with the Light of Mars in front of it."
"I'd like that!" David smiled.
Isaac turned to Ivan. "I've lost three friends. Lets not lose anymore."
Ivan nodded. "This is it. Its all or nothing!"
Becca watched them all. She was scared, but she knew her aim in life. "Lets GO!" she cried, and they ran into the temple.
-
"Keep a look out." Hissed Isaac. "Seth and Felix are our enemies too, and goodness knows what else there is!"
"Can you sense anything Becca?" asked Leo.
"This way!" she said.
David and Saturos were bringing up the rear.
"David, I..."
David put a finger to his lip. "I know." He smiled. He leant forwards and used his hand to bring Saturos' face to look down, and kissed him. They stood like that for a few minutes, tears falling from David's face.
"Hey, don't cry!" said Saturos.
"Its just, with everything, and..."
"Shh, I know."
They leant in to kiss again, when suddenly the floor gave way.
-
"Where are David and Saturos?" asked Leo.
Isaac and Becca were up ahead. Suddenly, a door slammed between them, separating Isaac, Ivan and Becca, from Leo and Selena.
"This isn't good." Said Leo.
-
"Damn it! We've lost them!" swore Ivan.
"Lets keep going. Time isn't on our side." Said Becca. She went on ahead, the two males following.
Ivan saw it coming. He dived as another door slammed shut, this time separating him and Becca from Isaac.
"Oh, crap!" said the Solar Adept.
-
David stood up, his head feeling woozy. He saw nearby his staff, and Saturos' sword. To his left, Saturos lay unconscious.
"I doubt your bodyguard will be able to help you this time."
David grabbed his staff and whirled around.
"Seth."
"You little faggot! It's because of you that Toby died, and THIS happened to ME!"
David hung his head. "And for what its worth, I AM sorry, but..." his head snapped up. "I REFUSE to take the blame because of disgusting homophobes!"
Seth grinned. He drew his sword. "Well, say hello to Toby for me," as he struck.
-
Leo felt his way around the section of the corridor they were trapped in. Selena grabbed his arm.
"Listen!" she hissed. They turned, and heard a low growl. Then they looked at each other. "Uh oh!"
-
Isaac took the only path he could find. He saw a light up ahead. He shielded his eyes as he entered a large room. Stood in the middle was Alex.
-
Ivan and Becca continued. "Isaac has gone the way WE were supposed to go!" she said.
"Well, we'll have to take the long way!" sighed Ivan.
They came out into a fairly dark hall. The roof was high, and there were a large amount of pillars in it.
"So, this is the Solar Adept!"
Felix stepped out from one of the pillars.
-
David spun his staff, striking Seth in his side, winding him. He snarled, and thrust his hand out.
"GAIA!"
The Earth around David erupted and boulders were sent up in the air from the ground beneath him. He wrapped his arms around his head, and shouted "Fire Wall!" The heat rose around him, protecting him from the onslaught. Then once the spell had subsided, Seth ran at the brunette, and brought his sword down. David blocked with his staff, only to have it broken in half, and he was thrown backwards.
-
"Alex?"
"Ah, Isaac, how good of you to join me!"
Isaac drew his sword. "Time to fight, you cruel bastard!" he snarled.
"On the contrary. You have just brought the thing I needed to access the Lunar Energy. The Light of Mars burns within you. And all four Lights need to be present to unlock the power."
As he said this, Isaac could feel his body heat up, and his skin began to glow. The red light from him shot towards the centre of the room. Alex was also glowing, but far more brightly. Light of brown, purple and blue joined the red, meeting together in an orb of light.
-
The huge dragon snapped at Leo, who rolled, and slashed with his axe, catching its chin.
"Ice Missile!"
The shards stuck into the flank of the creature, and it howled, causing the corridor to shake. Selena dodged some falling debris. This monster would take some killing.
Leo avoided the sharp teeth again. "I REALLY hate dragons!" he yelled.
-
Becca hid behind a pillar, and an explosion blasted behind her, from the combined energy of Ivan's Destruct Ray and Felix's Ragnarok.
Ivan ran forwards, Masamune drawn, and swiped at Felix, who dodged the strike, kicking out at the Wind Adept, catching him in his side. Ivan stumbled to the ground. Felix leapt to finish him off, but Ivan held out his hand.
"Whirlwind!"
The gust of wind spun Felix into the air, and he landed heavily.
-
"We can't keep this up!" cried Selena. She somersaulted over the dragons lashing tale, and ran towards Leo.
"Get behind me!" he ordered. He held his hands to the wall. He closed his eyes, concentrating. The corridor began to shake, and large chunks of rock started to fall from the ceiling. The shaking intensified, and the whole roof collapsed.
-
David wiped the blood from his mouth.
"Ragnarok!" shouted Seth,
"Counter!" yelled David.
The earthen sword plunged towards him, as a golden spiral appeared before him. It absorbed the attack, and sent Martian energy ripping through the air towards Seth. He was sent clean off his feet.
David stood up, his staff now useless. Then, he looked to the ground.
Saturos' sword.
-
Ivan nudged Felix. He was unconscious. He jumped when someone grabbed his arm.
"Lets hurry!" said Becca, urgency lacing her voice.
They ran towards the next room, where bright light was shining.
-
"ARGH!" the energy drained from him, Isaac slumped to the floor. A swirling portal of energy opened, and Alex casually stepped in.
"At last!" he breathed, and entered.
"NOOOO!" yelled Becca.
"We're too late!" cried Ivan.
-
A/N: I know, it sucked! But I'm nearly done! About 3 chapters to go! Nearly there! YAY! *Happy Dance!* But I think the next chapter is gonna have one last bout of angst!
Stay tuned! And PLEASE review!
