Chapter 17 - Secrets, or Lack Thereof
--------------------------------------------------------------
Jenna sat in her cabin within the ship. Already they had activated the Golden Sun, saved Prox, retrieved Karst and Agatio, and saved their parents. If this had happened months ago, she would've been exited beyond belief...
...But it had been months since she saw him, and to make matters worse, he had vanished. At first, she believed that he was completing the mission he had told her about. But then she saw him with Karst and Agatio, and she wondered why he would ally with the likes of them...
She hadn't meant to be snide and rude to him, but she had been angry. How could he leave her to ally with them! But something in his eyes seemed to convey a message, as if... He missed her. But was he sincere...? She again saw him at the Jupiter Lighthouse, and according to Sheba, he was thinking of Mia. But Mia was a childhood friend, and she was in danger, right?
She wished that she had known what his quest was, but when the Wise One told of Alex being on Mt. Aleph, She nearly broke down. His quest had been to just get to that mountain the whole time? Was she just something for his spare time? Or was there more to his mission?
And then there was the other problem she had - at somepoint after they left Prox, Jenna had been feeling funny, as if she was ill. But her urge to eat had not been quelled. Worse yet, she had the sick feeling that she was with child...
...And for all she knew, the father was dead...
"You OK, Jenna?"
Sitting upright with a start, she turned to see Felix entering the room. His clothes were slightly rumpled, probably from the party on deck. His face showed trails left from beads of sweat long since released. The one part of him that was out of place with the atmosphere on deck was his eyes - worried eyes.
"Why aren't you out here?"
She simply stared at him, unwillingly releasing tears down her face.
"It's Alex, isn't it?"
"How could he just leave like that? Going to Aleph and not telling me!"
Catching her breath, she stared at him, puzzled as to his silence. Normally, he'd say something, but...
"Jenna, he went there to help us. He wanted to get Alchemy so no one could abuse it for evil. He swore to me that he would return."
"And why didn't he tell me?"
"He didn't want to worry you. He also didn't think you would find out, so if he vanished, you wouldn't think him evil."
She stared into his sincere eyes, wondering how true that was. Felix had never cared for Alex, but now he seemed serious. As if... He approved of Alex...?
"You're not mad at him?"
"No, he came to me and told me. If he was as bad as I thought he was, then he wouldn't have done that."
"So. you don't hate him...?"
"No."
"Then, what if I told you that I was..."
"..."
"..."
"You're..."
She nodded.
He took a deep breath, apparently swallowing the shock from this news. "Jenna, have you told any..."
"No, you're the first."
"Unless Sheba or Ivan have sensed it."
Her eyes widened in fear, "You don't think..."
"I'm just saying that they might... I don't know if they do or not. I know that Sheba hasn't said anything, but I can't speak for Ivan."
"..."
"Don't worry, Jen. Alex is fine, and we'll see him soon. It's only, what... two weeks until we get to Vale? Maybe a little less if we fly... Don't worry, everyting will be fine!"
"Ok, Felix..."
But she still had some doubts...
--------------------------------------------------------------
Isaac stared at the party, where Ivan and Piers were holding a stick, and Mia, Garet, and Kyle were doing something that Piers called a "limbo." Whatever it was, it was hilarious, as Garet lacked the requirements to be able to get low easily. And to think that he used to gloat about being tall...
But while the scene before him was relaxing, it couldn't draw him from his delimma. He had to tell her that while he cared for her, that he didn't love her. How would he tel her, after all they had been through? How would she take it?
And what would everyone else think when he told her?
Desiding to go and get it done, he made his way to the cabins...

Another filler, this was done to try to let people be content due to the lack of updates in the near future due to college... Damn...
