Garet: I wonder what happened to Ivan.
He's in the hospital with third degree burns covering his body. Don't you remember using pyroclasm on him?
Garet: No, I don't. Anyways, where are Isaac and Mia?
I don't know, they disappeared again.
Garet: So it's just us for this chapter.
Yep, so let's get started.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------
Malevolent Mist
Luna rose high in the sky, though its soft rays could not penetrate the dark mist that surrounded the adepts' ship. Something sharply scratching sounded on the wooden deck, swift and rhythmic. Screams of horror rang high into the dark night, signifying the pain coursing through a cursed being.
Mia ran up onto the deck, her cerulean hair racing to catch up. She rushed out into the center, only to be completely blinded by a dark green mist. Her sapphire eyes scanned the haze, searching for the source of the howls. Silence greeted her ears as she listened to the surrounding fog. Mia could not hear the slow advance of the creature in the deafening quiet, until it was upon her.
Mia turned when she heard the unsheathing of a sword, only to be confronted by a dark shadow. Reacting on instinct, she swung her mace into the monster's stomach, the loud sound of crunching bones reaching her ears. The sea resumed its sound when she finished, pausing again as Mia examined the body.
"Isaac?" Mia saw at his familiar spiky hair through the haze. Mia reached her hand down to touch Isaac's pale face, only to be assured that she was right.
Quickly, Mia shone a light blue, plunging her ply psynergy into Isaac's body. The bleeding wound in his stomach closed, leaving no trace of the assault. "What were you doing out here?" Mia wondered as she caressed his face, only thin noticing the Darksword, wrapped tightly in his grasp.
Mia reached to pull the malevolent sword just as Isaac's eyes snapped open. A long snarl escaped his mouth, stopping Mia's hands from touching the blade. Crimson beams poured into Mia's vision, showing the cursed power that now gripped Isaac's body. "What happened Isaac?" Mia still tried to reach his cheek with her hand, despite the commanding terror that clutched her mind.
The cursed beast that now was Isaac growled, and moved just out of Mia's reach. Shakily, the beast stood, using the Darksword as a brace. A sneer formed out of the fiend's lips, showing new incisors that reached out of his mouth. Isaac's now warped mind howled in delight at the prey that had presented itself before him. He would feed tonight.
)
Ivan awoke with a start, looking around his room hurriedly, searching for something that was not there. He sighed in relief when he saw that the room was empty of demons. "Thank Jupiter, it was just a dream," Ivan mumbled, until a piercing shriek echoed from the deck above. Ivan raced from his room swiftly to go wake Garet, and find the source of the noise.
T_T
Mia screamed in horror as the demonic Isaac advanced upon her, raising the Darksword high into the air. The fiend halted however, inches from Mia's head. A flash of pain crossed the Isaac's no scarlet pupils, temporarily flashing cobalt, making the blade strike the ground. The loving color did not stay though, as it molded back with the red, forming an empty abyss of blackness. Unseeing eyes locked on her, as the Darksword rose again, promising to not miss again.
"Stop!" Garet tackled the possessed Isaac to the ground, holding him from behind.
"Mia, are you alright?" Ivan helped the shaken Mercury adept stand, looking at her worriedly.
"Yes, just a bit dazed, that's all," Mia looked back to where Garet held Isaac down and stated the obvious. "The Darksword is cursed."
"That's painfully apparent," Garet gasped out as he struggled to keep hold of the struggling Isaac. "Is there anything we can do?"
"The Cleric's Ring," Ivan remembered a treasure they had found. "Isn't it supposed to negate curses?"
"That's right," Mia realized and started searching through her white robes until she produced a white ring. She hurried to where Garet held Isaac, and prepared to slip the ring on his finger.
The ship rocked suddenly, just as Mia was about to place the Cleric's Ring on Isaac's finger, knocking the adepts askew. The ship had entered a whirlpool that was quickly dragging it below. Mia, Ivan and Garet moved rapidly to the helm, only to be blocked by Isaac's imposing figure, the Darksword leveled at them.
"Ice Missile," Mia fired a volley of ice shards at the Darksword, purposely missing Isaac, and ordered Garet ahead. "Garet, take hold of the wheel, and steer us out of this!"
"Plasma," Ivan launched one of his weaker psynergies at Isaac, trying to distract him.
"What about you two?" Garet stopped and looked on the battle worriedly.
"Just get us out of this!" Ivan yelled.
*_*
Garet sighed, and ran ahead, reaching the helm in no time. The wheel spun erratically, until he gripped it in an iron grip. The ship kept sinking however, slowly being pulled down further. Water crashed all around the deck, slowly rising to his ankles.
"I can't stop it!" Garet yelled into the battle in front of him. "Prepare for the ship to collapse," was all he was able to say before a wave swallowed him up.
V_V
"Mia, we have to stop him now!" Ivan yelled as another swell slammed into his body, pasting his green tunic to his thin frame.
"I have an idea," Mia's eyes lit up, even though she was soaked to the bone. She did not get to tell it though, as another giant surge swept Ivan off the ship.
All alone, Mia locked eyes with the dark Isaac, determined to save him. She rushed forward, colliding with Isaac's midsection, and wrapping herself around him, sending both towards the deep. "I love you," Mia whispered, just before they both rammed into the water.
O_O (Good thing I didn't end it here.)
Sol rose over a long beach, just outside of the mist. Two bodies were laid in the soft sand, drying in the sun. Neither moved, though both breathed, showing that they had at least survived. The blonde boy raised his head slightly, his violet eyes searching the world about slightly, before resting on his red-haired companion. Exhaustion overtook him, his eyes closing to darkness.
@_@
Darkness, total and complete surrounded Isaac as he floated through the depths of his mind. Dismal emotions flowed all about him, gripping his heart in despair. A burden, heavy with grief now occupied his heart, controlling his every thought. Light shone through, however, in one tiny part of his conscious, a beacon to guide him through. Isaac approached the light faster, eager to see its close, but was blocked just before the end.
@#$%
Bright light penetrated through Isaac's closed navy eyes, jarring him from his slumber. He groggily tried to rise, but was stopped by an arm around his waist. He looked down to see Mia lying against him, her face buried in his chest. She moved slightly with each breath, a light of life in the dreary darkness. Isaac laid down again, ignoring the scraping feeling of the sand and ran his hand through Mia's wet hair, relishing the soft feel. He smiled tiredly, as he soon joined her in peaceful slumber.
^_^
A single man walked the beaches around Lemuria, doing his daily rounds. A shining light reflected to his eye, catching the blue-haired man's attention. He quickly rushed to the area, running along the sloping sand dunes, and gasped at his find. Two boys were lying in the sand, surprisingly alive. The man quickly casted ply on the two, and mumbled, "I am sure that King Hydros will want to be informed that we have more visitors.
@_@ ^_^ O_O T_T *_* _ V_V O_o Z_Z ?_? :p ;) :( !_! ~_~ #_# $_$
That was a weird chapter; I didn't even plan for it to happen that way. Oh, well. Garet, do the reviewer's responses.
Garet: -_- ZZZZZZZ
Wake up Garet. (Prods him.)

PyroDragon88- Duhallan is still two summon guardians away. And I have just figured out a way for the two groups to meet up when I finished this chapter.
You will get to see Pier's weapon in one of the next two chapters, provided I don't make any weird changes.
Which story are you revamping a weapon in?
Thanks for the review.
WildfireDreams- They were close to Lemuria. And don't worry about the mythology lessons; they remind me of my freshmen year. Thanks for the review.
Anime-Master7- You already know who Ivan's coupled with. I took a poll in the first Alchemy's Elements. Thanks for the review.
Mercury Gold- Thanks for the review.
