Hey kids! I'm back. Thanks for reviewing. Yeah, I do read all the reviews, I usually try to respond.

ShimaGenki – Yup.

Sacred Wood – No duh. And lookit me, I am. XD

So anyways, yeah. I AM PRO-fessar ZUG!!

In this we learn of Zozy's sister, her age, and who left her and why. Onwards!

-Chapter 4-

Zozy stood on the balcony of Zelos' house, looking out over the rooftops. Zelos was a little afraid of her ever since the Professor Zug incident, and she felt a bit sad about that. She liked Zelos; he was good looking, and he was pretty nice and funny. She stared off, pensively. He was just like him; he had grown frightened of what she was, and began to push her away. They had ended in a furious fight; he had limped away with a bite mark and claw slashes. She was afraid Zelos would fight her, and this time she would kill. This time, it wouldn't only be a magick-infected bite. This time—

Suddenly she saw somebody. She gasped. It couldn't be. And yet…

She vaulted over the edge of the balcony and dropped to the ground, her cat-like muscles keeping her from splattering with their extra bounce-step. She raced towards the shop, overturning a cart. And there, she saw her.

"Asellus!?" Zozy cried, looking at the black-haired woman.

"Zozy?" the woman asked, disbelievingly. Her voice was somewhat dreamy, and it was slightly low-pitched. She had jewel-bright green eyes, the oh-so-familiar green with gold running through it. Then the cat-ears emerged from the bandana and swiveled towards her.

"Asellus! Sister!" Zozy cried, throwing her arms around her.

"Zozy! My young one! Oh, Zozy, I was so scared. I thought you were dead!" Asellus cried, sobbing onto her shoulder. Asellus was slender and tall, willowy in her build.

Zelos stared out the window. He was worried about the strange girl they had adopted as part of their team. She seemed to be about 17, maybe younger. She had a spark of youthful innocence, yet wisdom far beyond her years.

"There can be no winner. Even if we defeat Mithos, we lose a hero. If we lose to him, we lose our lives and our world. It's like playing with fate; whoever wins, we lose."

She had said that to him when they were going to Derris-Kharlan. They were stunned by her voice; it had been quiet and pensive, yet full of doom. She never had displayed such a sense of doubt for their quest before. It was a bit unnerving. She always seemed to be a happy, hyper cat-girl. But lately she was less bouncy and bubbly and more doomy and gloomy.

Zelos was snapped out of his reverie by loud laughter, and Zozy opened the door, holding a black haired woman's hand. Zelos jumped, and the woman looked over at him.

"Hello. You're Zelos, aren't you? I can tell; Zozy's told me much about you. I am Asellus, her sister," she said, walking over to him. He quickly scrambled to his feet.

"Whoa, hold on there. Zozy has a sister?" Zelos asked. "How come you never told us?"

"Many years ago, our village was besieged by elves. They killed our family, and I thought Asellus was killed too. I was raised by the Katz," Zozy said simply.

Asellus was studying Zelos. Zelos looked at her. "What?"

"You remind me of someone."

Suddenly, Zozy's eyes grew dark. "The demons of mankind have bled this Earth dry; will we kill it by finding its pulse, or will it be restored by splitting it? Never again will I love another; it only brings pain," she said, ominously. Then she turned and walked upstairs.

Zelos stared after her. "What the hell was that all about?"

"I dunno." Asellus said with a shrug.

"Hmm."

They just sorta stood there a minute. Then Zozy came screaming back down the stairs, Genis chasing her with a fake spider. "OMICRAP! KEEP IT AWAY!!"

Lloyd came out of the kitchen, looking rather harassed. And was wearing a frilly pink apron. "What now? Are you on fire yet? Or better yet, is GENIS on fire yet?!"

"No, Genis is chasing her with a spider," Asellus said, smiling at their antics.

"Oh. Good." With that, Lloyd turned and started to walk back to the kitchen. "Wait a minute…" He turned back around. "Who the hell are you?"

"I'll pardon your language this time, young one. I am Asellus, Zozy's sister," she said, glaring at Lloyd. This was no ordinary glare; it was, in fact, the Evil Glare Of DOOM™ (as seen on TV!!!!!!!)!!

"Er…yeah. That's cool. Wait a minute, why am I wearing a frilly pink apron?!"

Because I said so. Now go forth and…make…coffee or something, I dunno.

"…K." And with that Lloyd went to take off the apron but found it inexplicably affixed to him. Mwahahahaha.

Just then Zozy came running back towards them, knocking over chairs. "ALL MY HEROES ARE DEAD IN HOLLYWOOD!!!!!" she screamed, grabbing Lloyd by the front of his apron (which was frilly and pink) and shaking him. Then she picked him up and threw him at Genis, and ran off again. Then she lobbed a water balloon at them from the top of the stairs.

One thing led to another and she was soon tied to a chair, which was bolted to the floor. She was also gagged because she kept screaming at them.

And then the shi-

"WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO! LOOKIT ME! WOOOOOOOO!!" screamed a reddish orange dragon girl as she did a little dance and then flew away again.

-hit the fan. Because that little dragon girl evoked the powers of the WONDER CHEF! (cue dreamy fan-girl sighI like the Wonder Chef. He's AWESOME!)

"Hello everyone! I am here to teach you how to make PIE!! (didn't you always wish you could make pie in ToS? I do!) You need a kirima, a cabbage and some bread! And that makes PIE!!" said Wonder Chef, grinning stupidly.

"…No it doesn't," said Zozy, magically not bound and gagged anymore.

"…Shoosh."

And with that, Zozy shrieked and glomped Wonder Chef. And dragged him off to do fan-girl things to him. You know what I mean XD

Wasn't that fun? Yes it was. YES! SHUT UP!

Zelos: Waiiiiiiiiiiiiiit, wouldn't Kratos be pissed at Wonder Chef for having se-

And then a blue hedgehog ran screaming from a blue snow leopard that was chasing him with a banana.

Zelos: -with Zozy?

Kratos: I da-

And then the hedgehog and leopard ran back towards them, screaming and drowning out Kratty-chan's words.

Kratos: -well am!

Zelos: Well kick his as-

And then a mongoose yelled "WALNUT" really loud.

Zelos: -then!

Kratty-chan: Well there's nothing I can do about it. Bloody is in love with the Wonder Chef, and the closest she can get to fuc-

WALNUT!!

Kratty: -ng him is making her alter-ego do it with him.

Zelos: Sorta like she is with you and me.

Kratty: Yup.
