" We better get going, before a crowd gets to the cliff that use to be. Pier, how long till colossus starts?" asked Isaac.

" 5 days, 17 hours, 50, minutes, 32 seconds," replied Pier.

" That's so cool. How do you know that?" asked Isaac as they where walking.

" I have a very cool gizmo called a sailor watch. It can keep track of time for any thing. I got it as my present for being top in all my classes," said Pier proudly.

Just as they where walking a big explosion happened in the distance.

" WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!" said Ivan as he revealed his head behind his arms. Felix and Isaac looked at each other with a look of great worry.

" THE BRIDGE!" yelled Felix and Isaac in unison. The team of Adepts then dashed ahead, only to be caught be a tribe of Blue Apes.

" Damn it keeps on getting tougher as we get going!" said Sheba.

" She spoke 0_0," said Jena.

" Pepare for battle people," said Felix and Isaac in unison.

" Lets get cracking, BORALISE!!!!" yelled Pier. Just then, four Mercury Djinn descended and a pillar of blue energy ascended, and the biggest, fiercest, blizzard went upon the tribe.

" Ready Ivan!" said Garret.

" Never could be more ready in my life, GO! Gust, Breeze, Gasp, and Gale, Blitz, and Whorl," yelled Ivan.

" Now, Scorch, Cannon, and Fury," yelled Garret.

" Summon!!!!! CATASTRAPHE!!!!" Yelled Garret and Ivan in unison.

As the deadly, Giant night descended from the clouds, Isaac and Pier began to fight.

" Go! Flint, Granite, and Echo," yelled Isaac.

" Go, Eddy, Serac, Spring, and Cascade," yelled Pier.

" Summon!!!! AZUL!!!!!!" yelled Isaac and Pier in unison.

As the night and dragon descend, Felix was getting ready to strike. As soon as the summons did their job, it was his turn.

" BBBBBBOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!," as the Summons hit in a very weak spot in the tribe.

" ARRRHHHH," Felix roared as he pounced on one ape and cut ones head off. He than stabbed another through the heart, than another in the face, made a deadly Vertical strike through the head of the final Ape, cutting it in two pieces. Blood was every where, one a sword, one Felix, one every body.

" Well, at least that's over," said Sheba.

" Yah. We can finally cross the .." said Isaac. " The bridge It's gone."

" Damn! Now how are we supposed to Colossus?" said Garret

" Wait! Flint?" Said Isaac with a grin spreading across his face.

" One step ahead of you! ??????????????????????????????????????????????????" chanted Just as the little spell was casted, the ground shook. Then, pillars of earth rose from the darkness below.

" I give you, Your Bridge," said Flint.

" Go Flint! Go Flint! Go Flint!" chanted every one as they crossed the Flint made bridge (no pun intended).

The Next Day 4 days till Colossus

" Ok, we are about 30 miles from Colossus. I'm sure we can get there and prepare for the tournament," said Pier.

" Isaac, last time didn't you have to compete with a weapon?" asked Ivan.

" OH FUCK! Yes you did! How is Pier going to compete?" panicked Isaac.

" He can Borrow one of mine," said Garret pulling out his collect one.

At that time, a piece of paper blew into Mia's face.

" Exotic weapons of the elements. If you can wield them, they're for free!" read Mia.

" Well, you can't do better than that. So we will wait to get Pier's weapon until we reach Colossus. Agreed?" asked Isaac.

"AGREED!" answered the gang.

The next day 3 days till Colossus

" Damn! It's so hot I could roast a fish!" complained Pier.

" Mmmmnnn, fish," said Garret.

" Lets not put our minds on what we don't have," said Isaac.

" Yes master," said Garret sarcastically.

" I HATE THIS DESERT!' yelled Jena that-if-she-had-done-it-any-louder-it- was-going-to-break-an-eardrum loud.

" Who doesn't?" asked Pier giving her [the look].

" Oh make me hotter, cutie," thought Jena.

" It doesn't matter. We can relax as soon as we Colossus," said Isaac.

" That is if we can get through the desert," muttered Jena.

The next day 2 days till Colosso

" There it is, Colosso!" said Isaac happily.

" YAHOOOOO!!!!!!" yelled every one.

" But! Before we can relax, we must prepare for Colosso," said Isaac.

" There is the weapon shop," said Jena.

" OH YAH!" said Pier as he did a very long jump to the shop. " DAMN! It's closed!" said Pier.

" OH FUCK," said Jena as she tried to hide he excitement.

" GLADLY!" said Pier.

" Ahhmmn, shouldn't we find a hotel to stay in Felix?" asked Pier.

" Yes I'm with Pier," said all the girls.

" AHHH, sorry about the wait. You came 5 minutes early. So come on in," said the storeowner.

" Ok, how many Venus Adepts do I have today? Please step foreword," asked the owner.

Isaac and Felix stepped foreword. Waves of psyenergy arose from the ground and went into Isaac's and Felix's heads.

" I know what weapon you are here for," said the owner to Isaac as he walked behind the counter and got a long, wooden case. He opened it to reveal.

" This is the TWIN SWORDS OF VENUS. Use it will on you mission for peace," said the owner proudly.

" How do you know that?" asked Isaac.

" I'm of the Jupiter clan. I can read minds with my psyenergy," said the storeowner.

To make a long store short, Garret got the BIG SWORD OF MARS, Jena got the RING STAF OF AIRES, Ivan got the BATTLE HAMMER OF THOR, Sheba got the SYTHE OF JUPITER, Pier received (I got tiered of writing [got the]) the DOUBLE TRIDENT OF POSIDEN, Mia received the STAF OF MERCURY, and Felix received the LONG SWORD OF ZEUS.

And now back to the regularly scheduled program

As Isaac and company exited the shop and headed to the hotel, they where being watched.

" In two days, their prize will be ours. HA HA HA HA HA HA," laughed the couple.
