Mmmmmm. filled with Chrono Trigger like goodness.. heh heh. yeah. I own
Zeva. Nothing else.
Zeva: You don't own me!! Gah! **stalks off growling**
Teen:**whimpers** Anyways, in the last chapter, when Lucca wouldn't let Magus sleep ^_^ It was based on the first review I got! Hehehe The message was to continue the story, so I had no choice but to stay up late and finish the next (if short) chapter. And this chappie was supposed to be a continuation of Magus's story, but the reviewer pointed out a little fact I'd missed, so I attempted to explain it here. heh heh. inspiration can come from anything.. I'll shut up now. ***********************************************
"The next time I saw her." Magus started quietly, he then noticed that Lucca was asleep, her head resting on his shoulder.
He smiled, "Goodnight, Lucca." he whispered.
He was soon asleep.
A few hours later, Zeva woke up. She was leaning against something, a bandage around the scar on her shoulder. Magus sat beside her, sleeping. A young girl with purple hair rested against him.
"Magus?" she whispered, trying to sit up properly.
"Art thee awake?" croaked a strange voice.
"Me? Yeah. Who are you?" she asked, confused.
"You may call me Frog, though my true name be Glenn."
"Frog?" she demanded, "Are you serious?"
"Yes, I know, 'tis a strange name." he said apologetically.
"No need to apologize. Flea is a stranger name, I'm just surprised that a human would have a name like that."
There was an awkward silence in which Zeva wondered what she had said wrong.
"I am. not precisely. human." he told her.
"Really."
"Magus transformed me into this."
"Let me guess. A frog?"
"Yes."
Zeva yawned and growled, "I'll have to talk to him about that."
"How is it that you art in this time, and yet both Magus and thyself are allies?" Frog inquired.
"Well, when Magus first began experimenting with summoning Lavos. I helped him. But it was also my duty to protect the young mystics. So, when one of them was sucked into a portal through time, I followed. You might meet her, if you stay longer. Mmmm. Magus knew that the portal might open, but I think he was careless in face of success. To let the younger mystics be put in danger like that. That's why I insisted that I stay with them. Does that explain well enough?"
"Yes, I understand now. Who was this mystic you aided?" he asked.
"Her name is Liko. She has no talent for spells or weapons which would normally rule her out for this sort of job, helping Magus and all. But she has the talent of being able to turn into a wolf. She's got strange markings on her skin in her human form, and a scar beneath one eye. Wolf ears too. She's, well not really cowardly, but cautious. She always checks things out before doing anything unless she's been given an order."
"Magus took advantage of her loyalty." Frog proclaimed.
Zeva shook her head, "No, not really. To serve someone, you have to do what they need you to do. Magus was a much better leader than that buffoon Ozzie ever could have been. He gave me all sorts of help. He'd pass orders on my behalf so I could protect those who couldn't fight. He'd protect us in battle too. He was a great leader." she argued.
"I shall not argue with you on this subject, as you art incredibly faithful to one not deserving of it."
Zeva laughed, "Well, you'd better watch what you say Frog, keep on talking and we'll be arguing again."
"Point taken." Frog chuckled, "Goodnight Zeva."
"Goodnight Frog."
