Chapter III: The Old Party

"Helping.....Valmar?!", Ryudo screamed, nearly frozen in fear. "Yes...well, after Granas and Valmar recently ressurected, it was discovered that they became friends. And now, they are both plotting something. And Carius and I don't even know what it is yet!", Elena's voice gathered more anger as she talked. "What more....do you know about them working together?", asked Ryudo. Elena then opened her mouth, "The only other thing is that we know they are possessing certain people. So, now, you might even come across people possessed by parts of Evil Granas." Ryudo then smirked, "Would you like to round up the old party?" Elena actually grew a smile to that question, "Yeah. Maybe we can all accomplish something......"

So, it was decided. Ryudo, Elena, and Skye were off to recruit King Roan, Tio, and Millenia. But, where to find them? The only person that they could get right now is Millenia, due to the fact that Skye knows where she is.

"Why do we even have to get Millenia?", whined Elena. "Well, she was a good fighter......",, was Ryudo's only response. "Do you like her....more than me?!", cried Elena. "How could you even think that I'd like a wicked flesh eater before I'd like a sweet songstress like you?", asked Ryudo. This question comforted Elena. Ryudo and Elena still really weren't boyfriend and girlfriend, but they defintely loved each other.

"So, Millenia teaches, eh?", asked Ryudo. "Yes, yes...", responded Skye, "It's in the city of Liliuge. She teaches in that church. It's really now a Sunday school, though...." Ryudo then let out a "hmph" sound. Everybody still remembered that Liliuge was an easy city to get to. and that's exactly where they were headed. "We'll head straight through Agear town!", announced Ryudo, "And Agear Town should be in about 5 miles. That's not that far, as long as we just keep walking....."

So, Ryudo, Elena, and Skye just decided to talk a bit. At least until they got to Agear. "So, Elena, I've been thinking......", said Ryudo, "We've known each other for quite a while now, and we've had a lot of fun together. I've been really trying to figure this out lately but......do you want to be my girlfriend?" Ryudo immediately knew that that was a stupid way to say it. But Elena responded with a smile, "Definitely, Ryudo!" Ryudo then felt relieved, but he still wanted to keep a bit of his cocky side.

Soon, they arrived at Agear Town. "Okay, we'll just go through here, and the next town is Liliuge..", said Ryudo as they started to pass through Agear Town. It seemed easy. Nobody was there to block their way. Nothing stood in their way at all.

They soon arrived at Liliuge. "Let's run up to the church!", announced Ryudo. The three ran a bit to the church and walked inside. There were some people in that church that gave them a big shock.

As soon as they opened the church door, Millenia's classroom was right there. And guess what? Millenia and the students were there, but also, Tio and Roan were at the classroom. Tio had decided to be the school nurse, and King Roan was visiting their school as a special guest. "Millenia, Roan, Tio!", shouted Elena as she entered the school. "Ryudo, Skye, and Elena?", exclaimed Millenia, Roan, and Tio as the three entered. "Yes, is classroom time almost over?", asked Ryudo. Millenia then shouted, "It is now! Every kid in here except Roan, scram!" The kids left, and now, the old party could talk.

Ryudo soon got everybody caught up, and everybody agreed that they could all travel together. But they also agreed that it would end up being a bigger adventure than their last one.
