Chapter 19- Running Out Of Time

Rannu paced quickly across the room, awaiting the return of the warriors "Clam down buddy your gonna burn a hole in the floor." A HUmar said from the doorway, Rannu stopped and looked up at the HUmar, "Who are you." Rannu stated more than asked, "Well aren't we on our toes." the HUmar snapped sarcastically, "I'm Kyros, I'm from the hunters guild, we're looking for somebdy named Kinami? We heard that he was spotted in this lobby." Kyros explained, Rannu raised an eyebrow, "Who is Kinami?" Rannu asked, hopeing that he wasn't seen on video, "A tall HUmar, long sky blue hair, a white and blue framed suit." Kyros explained, "Oh yeah I saw him, talked to him even, he said something about going into town for food." Rannu said hopeing Kyros would buy it and leave, "Really? Thank you. You see, Kinami is from Ragol, and he isn't registered on pioneer 2, so we need him to register as a citizen." Kyros said as he turned and walked out the door. "Oh ya, they probably wanted to strap him to a lab chair and question him about ragol and its past, maybe even drain his memories, and we dont need anyone else interfering with Rannu." Rannu thought to himself.

Hyozanryu awoke in the hospital, his agito still by his side, but he couldnt move. "You're alive." Ryo said sounding relieved, Hyozanryu looked up to see Ryo, and Duraku standing over him, "Where are the other two?" Hyozanryu asked "They were here, but they decided that they should go meet up with Rannu." Duraku replied. "What happened back there? I remember talking to some spirit, next thing I know I'm standing up and saveing Ryo." Hyozanryu said, "Your sword...It lit up like Mini Bert's Vengeance Blade.." Duraku said, "I think it might be another Vengeance Blade, that would explain why you have the ability to kill the sages." Ryo explained, "That could be it, but why can't I move?" Hyozanryu asked, "We arent sure, the doctor easily patched up your chest wound, he said you should be fine." Ryo explained, the room fell silent, Hyozanryu looked at his sword blankly.

Dale was first to walk through the door, he jumped around "I killed the water sage!" Dale yelled as he jumped around, "I know Dale, you're the only one who could have killed her." Rannu said calmly, Dale settled down, "Oh ya." Dale said calmly and sat down. At that moment Logan, Cloud, Vahn, Elly and Snow walked through the door, "I'm glad to see your all safe." Rannu said clamly, "So where are the final two sages?" Vahn asked, "Lets wait until the others get back." Rannu said, less clamly then normal, Beat and Ton walked through the door, followed by a loud voice, "You don't have enough time." A loud voice boomed throughout the lobby, Everyone looked around in suprise, no one was there, "What do you mean?" Rannu asked, "Who are you?" Elly asked, "It doesn't matter who I am, but you are running out of time, Ultima-Rannu will be revived in three days!" The voice yelled, "WHAT?!" Logan yelled back "You must all go to the ruins, the remaining sages are hiding there, along with Dark Rannu, But be warned, if you dont take Mini Bert and Hyozanryu with you, you will definetly perish..." The voice got weak and trailed off.

Mini Bert and Grace had been standing outside the lobby door listening to the loud voice speak, if what he spoke was true, then the danger would be unimaginable, "Grace, I want you to stay here, If what that voice said is true, the last few sages are in the same place, and are very dangerous." Mini Bert said calmly as he walked towards the door, "You aren't leaving me here." Grace said calmly, Mini Bert stopped and looked back, "I came with you to the mountain, I came to get you from the hospital, you still arent in perfect condition, you aren't going to leave here without me." Grace explained, Mini Bert closed his eyes and shook his head, "You're right..." Mini Bert said as he walked through the door.

Beat and Ton had ran back to the hspital to get Hyozanryu, as they ran through his room door, they saw him putting on his armour and tieng his agito to his side, "You can move?" Beat asked, "Yes. It was very odd, Duraku and Ryo had gone after the nurse came, then when the nurse left, someone else came in, I thought it was Ryo, but his hair was brown and his armour was anicent." Hyozanryu explained, "he took out a small cane and placed it on my agito, there was a small flash of light, then i remember gaining all my strength back, he explained to me that I needed to go with you to kill the last two sages." Hyozanryu finished and began to walk out the door.

Kinami lay still on his hospital bed, he hadn't had a visitor since breakfast when the nurse had came to give him a breakfast that he wouldn't eat. The door slid open silently, a tall man wearing ancient armour and had brown hair walked up to Kinami, "You shouldn't have come to pioneer 2." The man said, "I needed to help Mini Bert." Kinami said without opening his eyes, "How did you know that you needed to help Mini Bert? Did you know that you would end up in the hospital? Did you know that government agents will eventually find you here and question you?" The man explained, "Yes. Ever since I saw his determination I knew that the he was the one the oracle in Belaria spoke of, I don't care that I'm here, or that the government is after me." Kinami said strongly. the man chuckled to himself, "You truly are determined. Very well, you'll need this." The man said as he placed something on the bedside table and left.

"Ok, since we know that the last two sages and Dark Rannu are all in the ruins, these last two sages arent going o be easy, so you will all go at the same time, the only two remaining sages are Elitzy of Light, and Justiceon of Spirit, just because of their elements dont take them lightly, they are definetly the most powerful and experienced of all the sages." Rannu explained, "Now, go to the ruins! We only have 3 days!" Rannu yelled and pointed to the door.

As they walked out towards the door, it opened, revealing Hyozanryu, Beat, Ton and.."Well are we going or not?" Giga bert said, Giga's new armour glittered in the light, it was the same, black and red, but it appeared thicker and betterly tempered, "With everyone here there's no way that the sages can win!" Logan said enthusiatically as he ran to the teleporter.
