Disclaimer: I forgot to add this in the beginning of my story. I don't own Golden Sun or the Lost age. I give high respects to Camelot and Nintendo in making a kick-ass seris prime for fan-fictions like mine. Ok let's get down to business. I need reviews to help my lighthouses chapters. I know they suck but I can't improve if nobody is giving me comments.
Garet tried his best to regain his balance but one of his legs was already hanging over the edge. When his body was leaning towards one side of the platform, he would shift his weight to the other side. The problem was the platforms were moving and he couldn't completely get his balance. Suddenly Isacc used some weird form of psynergy. A hand grabbed Garet's body and placed him near the door. Isacc jumped across to the door. Everybody was eying him especially Ivan who said,
" If you could do that, why didn't you just carry us over that platform?" Isacc replied,
" I didn't know I had that kind of psynergy. My powers are still developing." Felix stepped in and said,
" Give him a break, Ivan. He already has a lot of pressures of the only person to develop Isacc. All we can do is support him." Ivan apologized. When they reached the staircase, an eerie voice spoke,
" Ye, who can hear this message must listen very carefully. For I will give you important information." It only seemed like Isacc comprehended what he was saying because everybody else were climbing the staircase. Garet motioned Isacc to move but Isacc stayed and listened. The voice continued,
" Ye seek a Luna djinn. Am I wrong? To find the Luna djinn, you must travel to a cave not far from here. You must pass the challenge that the Luna djinn gives you. Do you understand? Good luck, savior." Isacc understood full well what he must do. He climbed up the staircase to reach his friends. They immediately saw the beacon was lit. The light was silvery blue. The adepts reached the eerie but could see nobody. It seemed like Alex was long gone because the effects of the light started taking effect. The lighthouse broke in half and started to crumble beneath them. The adepts made a circle and both Felix and Isacc cast retreat. They were safe from the lighthouse rubble. The moon shone brightly in the sky. The fog and mist disappeared. The snow melted into torrents of water. The adepts got tremendously soaked. While they were trying to dry themselves, Isacc said,
" You guys didn't here this when you walking up to eerie. I heard that the first Luna djinn is in a cave somewhere near here. I must find that Luna djinn." Piers replied,
" If you talking about that cave, sure I will come with you." Piers pointed to a mountain with a big opening in the front. He continued,
" Other than that, I'm heading back to the Inn to dry myself. If that's ok with you?" Ivan chimed in,
" If destiny calls you to go there, Isacc, then we won't stop you as Felix said."
" Thanks you guys. You will always be the best bunch of people I ever met." The adepts headed towards the direction that Piers pointed to. Once they reached the cave, a door shut in front of them. The scriptures in front of the door read,
" Before you can proceed into this secret place, I must test your skills." Suddenly 5 earth golems appeared. They jumped from the top of the mountain down on their opponents. The ground shook so hard that the adepts lost their balance. One of the golems rushed in and tried to punch Garet straight in the chest. Garet dodged and used the psynergy liquefy. The Earth Golem melted in the immense heat and literally melted into purple liquid. Ivan recovered from shock and took out his kijimonchi (sp?) and unleashed Asura. A white devil appeared and slashed along with Ivan. The earth golem being weak to wind psynergy, was killed by the powerful blow. Piers used the psynergy diamond berg. A slab of ice froze the golem in place. He jumped in the air and took one powerful slash. The ice shattered and the Earth Golem was split into half. Before the bodies could reform, Piers cast frost prism. The bodies disappeared. Felix and Isacc double-teamed and slashed an earth golem to and fro. The last golem ran away because the battle was looking bleak on their behalf. The door suddenly opened and the adepts proceeded in the cave.
The cave didn't have a lighting system so Garet made a fire within his palm. They continued on the walkway until they reached a statue. The statue's eyes glistened. The head turned into a little, skinny, silvery-black, with an orange tail animal. The djinn pronounced itself,
" My name is Luanro. I'm the first Luna djinn. Only one adept can receive my power which would be you, young Isacc. The rest must leave the cave and wait. I must test young Isacc's abilities." Before everybody started leaving, Mia gave a long kiss to Isacc and wished him good luck. Isacc was thankful for emotional support. Once everybody left the premise, the Luna djinn bounced around and said,
" To deserve my powers, you must learn to handle two swords properly. If you fail this challenge, I'm afraid I can't be yours. If you are successful, not only you will receive me, but you will develop your innate powers. Give me your Sol blade for now. I will give you 2 long swords to practice with." Isacc reluctantly gave it his precious Sol blade. He had to in order to gain it's trust. The djinn gave Isacc two Iron long swords. The djinn took out his dukes. It then said,
" Follow my movements. You will learn how to use both swords gracefully and tactically. If you're able to absorb all my teachings, you can defeat my friend the sword breaker. Now for the first move "double parry and strike". This move is used when the enemy uses one sword to hit you then another sword to hit you again. Now follow me. When a blow is coming, you will parry like so. Keep the sword there and wait for the next blow. Block the blow and hang it there for a vulnerable strike. Now here is the tricky part. Draw both of the enemy's swords into one position. Hold it with one of your swords and counterattack with your free sword. Got it? If you do it quick enough, it should look like this. Now you try."
Isacc tried his best to learn the technique. The djinn continued on teaching him different sword techniques. He also taught Isacc different forms of the art of sword whooping. It took many hours for Isacc to get it but eventually he did. While he was training, his friends were waiting patiently outside. Garet got sick and tired of waiting and said,
" Damn! We've been waiting here for 3 hours. Has he failed the test or what?" Felix tried to comfort his anger by saying,
" We'll know when Isacc comes out of the cave. Running like a lunatic isn't making things going faster." Piers jumped in and said,
" You know, Garet has a point. 3 hours of our time could've been spent on catching up with Alex. It is apparent to us that Alex is far ahead of us. He could've increased a lead over us." Felix quickly formed an answer,
" My intuition tells me that Alex would be waiting for us in the next lighthouse. Hopefully Agatio and Karst can slow him down. All we can do is prepare Isacc for the best." While they were talking Isacc was still training with the djinn. The djinn finally said,
" Good job, Isacc. Now here is my final test. Defeat the sword breaker and I will be yours." The djinn whistled and a black figure appeared. The figure had no head but had a dark cape. It carried the same swords Isacc was carrying. It charged ready to slash at Isacc's gut. Isacc front flipped over the body and did a spin behind the sword breaker's body. Isacc slashed twice and the sword breaker bellowed a scream in pain. The djinn said,
" If you land 10 successful blows, he will be defeated. Use your wits!"
The battle continued. The sword breaker turned around and used piercing attacks against Isacc. Isacc used the "double parry strike back" technique. The monster got pissed and unleashed a circular wave of sword attacks. Isacc defended because there wasn't much of a counter to this move. He just had to wait for the right moment to lock both of his swords. When the time came, Isacc parried both swords up high and back flipped. After he landed, he charged back full speed and cut the sword breaker's body in half. The enemy was defeated. The djinn was clapping and he said,
" Nice work. You must seek the other djinns to increase your power. I must join you, savior." The djinn danced in a circle and jumped into Isacc's body. Instead of hanging out with the other Venus djinns, this djinn absorbed into Isacc's body. It gave Isacc newfound strength and wisdom. He left the cave and his friends rushed to him and asked him many questions. Garet in particular asked,
" Did you complete the challenge?" Isacc replied,
" Of course, I did." Felix asked,
" Do you feel any stronger?"
" I haven't felt better than what I'm feeling now."
Me: Nothing like ending a chapter with Isacc having high-self esteem of himself.
