Intro:

I've been a little to slow with the storyline. It will pick up from here. I'm not very quick but I'll start getting to the main point. If it seems like I'm repeating the original story. I'm doing no such thing. Just hang tight. (Thanks for the review, Jeriana Sedia. Yes I know my spelling and grammer sucks. I don't have a spell check so you'll have to deal with it. Glad you like the story.)

Disclainer: I don't own the original stuff from legend og dragoon.

Chapter Four: Dradon Spite

Garaha collapsed. Meru rushed to his side and turned him over onto his back. He was sweating bullets and his harsh breathing was the only sound in the Abyss.

"Garaha, are you okay?" Meru asked anxiously.

He moaned. "I almost got him. Got to try again."

"If you do that again I'll throddle you." Meru stated.

Garaha got to his feet and smiled. "I'll get him sooner or later."

"When you do summon Lloyd, I'll make sure you never summon the dead again." Meru was glaring.

"Getting bored?" said a faded voice.

Meru and Garaha whirled around to face their captor. "You again," said Meru. "Why are you doing this? Why us?"

Their captor was a wispy shadow of a man. Nothing about him suggested that he was a physical being, except his face. A jagged scar ran all the way across what would have been a smooth face. The scar ruined his left eye which was completely black.

"Looks like your savior is wounded."

"What have you done to Edge!" Meru cried.

"More like what he has done to my poor follower."

"Why Edge?"

"Actually, I was just trying to relieve the Dradon Sprite of his Star Dust."

"Dradon Sprite?"

"Dart's son got in the way. Cryptan said he ruined the boy's pretty face."

"You bastard!" Garaha clenched his fist.

"I just thought that you would like some knews. Have fun in a land of nothing."

With that the shade disappeared. But as soon as he faded away another being appeared. However, this being was not threatening. It was the spirit of a young man who had platinum hair. Meru knew him as Lloyd. The Wingly who had wished for a utopia.

"Lloyd." Meru said in greeting.

"You'r lover has been tying to summon me. So here I am. Sorry I couldn't come right away. I was looking for Lavitz. What are you doing in the realm of Forever?"

"We're taped. That thing attacked us in Limestone cave." Garaha replied.

"Sorry, I am dead and have not the power to help you."

"Thats not why I was summoning you."

"Then what is it you want."

"I want to know whats going on, Lloyd. I know you know, and the dead can't lie."

"Lloyd, you know who this shade is. Tell us." Meru said.

Lloyd smirked. "He's a Dradon Sprite."

"Whats that?" asked Garaha.

"They are a race born of dragoons."

"And?"

Lloyd sighed. "Haven't you ever wondered why those little trinkets you carried where called dragoon spirites? At one time the where possesed by spirites and not just Dragon power. Dradon Spirtes are thoughs spirits."

"Which Dradon Spirit is he?"

"Black."

"Huh?"

"The one that belonged to Rose."

"He knew Rose!" Meru exclaimed.

"Not personally. But he still hates her."

"Why?"

"She took over his drogoon."

"I don't follow." said Garaha.

"Dradon Srites normally live in the dragoon but if another should use the dragoon then the Dradon Spite must leave."

"So, at the beginning of the Dragon Campain the Dradon Sprites disappeared."

"Correct."

"So, then this is all about revenge."

"I don't know. I have to find Lavitz." Lloyd said.Then, without a word of farewell, he was gone.

***

The healer cried out as Edge sprang from his bed and started looking for his cloths. By the time Petal got there, Edge was only half dressed. He was trying to get his blood stained shirt on. Weak as he was, he had barely got the stiff thing over his head.

"Edge!" Pertal scolded. "You've only been in bed for two days. And if you feel well enough to get up then at least put on some clean cloths."

"But that silk stuff is too fancy." Edge replied.

"Father thought you might say that so he got these."

Petal threw the traveling garments at Edge who fumbled trying to catch them. Petal waited outside while Edge got dressed. She heared a thud more than once. When Edge finally got out of the door he had everthing but his boots on.

"Where's Gailu?" Edge asked.

"So he's what this is all about. The Wingly is in the garden."

Edge took off and stumbled down the stairs. Petal sighed. She remembered when they had found Gailu sleeping like a rock on the floor of Edge's sick room. After much confusion they discovered that Edge's eye was whole again.

Edge ran into the garden. He saw Gailu at once, stanging infront of a statue of Lavitz. Like Edge Gailu was bare foot. His hair was no longer tied up and his crystal blue locks fell way past his shoulders. As Edge walked closer he noticed that not only was Gailu's hair undone but it was slightly curled, as well.

Hearing Edge's foot steps Gailu turned around. Edge gasped in shock. "What happened to you!"

Gailu was thinner and his eyes had turned pale. Only a faint gray color surrounded Gailu's pupils. He no longer looked anything like Meru. There was sorrow deep in Gailu's eyes.

"My father always told me that this would happen. He just never told me when." Gailu spoke in a deeper voice than ever before.

"How? Why?" Edge was wide eyed.

"I don't know for sure. Father, said it was because of the dragoon spirit. That's why I didn't want to ever use it."

Edge didn't understand why the dragoon spirit would do this to Gailu. The dragoon spirit never did anything to other Winglies. "Its not that bad." Edge tried to comfort Gailu." You don't look like Meru anymore but that doesn't matter. We'll just have to get use to it."

Yeah right. It would take forever to get use to this new twist od events. But the words brought a slight smile to Gailu's face. Gailu turned back to the statue. "There is someone who wants to meet you."

Edge cocked is head. "What?"

Gailu placed both his hands and chanted. Before Edge knew what hit him he was face to face with a stern man. Edge recognized him as Lavitz. Edge had seen the portait of Lavitz that his father kept. Edge stare in shock. Gailu stood behind Lavitz with a grin on his face. Edge thought he saw something in the corner of his vision but was to distacted to pay it any mind. The sky was a golden color and the statue was gone. He felt like he was going to faint.

"Your Lavitz!"

"That I am."

Edge turned his gaze to Gailu. "How?"

"I did it on accident at first. We only have a limited amount of time so hurry it up."

Lavitz circled around Edge and nodded. "Shana's hair, Dart's spikes, and his figure too."

"I got my mother's eyes too, incase you hadn't noticed." Edge said, irritated.

Lavitz burst out laughing. "I didn't mean to offend."

"Than speak as if I'm here."

Lavitz was still snickering. He and Edge talked about past events. Gailu lost track of the conversation so decided to consentrate on holding the threads betweem worlds as best he could. Once he felt the threads tearing he interupted the conversation.

"Times up."

Edge sighed. "Well, its nice to have finally meet you. My father spoke of you often."

"And it was nice to meet you, Edge. You are well worth your father's name."

"Thank-" Edge saw something behind Gailu.

It looked like another spirit. The wispy man had platinum hair and wore black. Evil spirit! that was the first thought that crossed Edges mind. The spirit reached out towards Gailu. Edge cried out in warning. Gailu whirled around and suprising the wandering soul. The spirit crashed into Gailu and disappeared.Gailu fell to the ground. At the moment, the garden faded. Lavitz was replaced by his statue and the golden sky turned blue.

Edge knelt beside Gailu."Are you okay?" He asked anxiously.

Gailu shook his head in confusion and blinked rapidly.

"Gailu. If you are well, say something."

"What? Gailu? That is not my name."

Gailu stood up and looked about. "Where am I? What happened?"

The young Wingly looked down at his hands. "This can't...!"

Edge stare at his freind. "If your not Gailu than who are you?"

"Gailu...is that the name of this body?"

Edge clenched hid fist in fustation. "Damn it! Who are you!"

"No need to shout." Gailu covered his ears. "When I was alive, people called me Lloyd."

Conclusion: Now Lloyd has accidentily possesed Gailu. Lloyd might ge slightly out of character from this point on. He's a lost soul who's trying to mend his ways.Lloyd will pop up every once in a while. The next chapter will go on with Lloyds new problem. Sharing a body with Gailu.
