YSYF and RoseSama35, listen to me. I want you two to go back to chapter 13 and re-read it. I completely forgot one of the most important parts and I had to go back and add it in. Nothing else changed though. I just wanted to tell you that so you won't get a bit confused on this chapter, 'cause if you don't re-read chapter 13, ya gonna get confused. I cussed at myself the entire night for forgetting that very important part. Well, that's all for now, so, ta ta!

Chapter XIV: They Just Never Leave Us Alone

XxXxX

I sat up and stretched. 'That was a strange dream.' I hopped out of bed and equipped myself with my sword and dagger.

"C'mon, Crys. Rose, Ace, and Boralo are waitin' for us outside of the town." Milro was standing in the doorway.

"Kay. I'm comin'."

XxXxX

"Well, looks like we're stayin' at Seilnder for the night." I stood in front of the town, Seilnder. We had managed to get there by sundown.

"I guess it wouldn't hurt." Rose walked inside.

The town was full of Minintos.

"Whoa. I thought they were just about extinct." Ace sounded really surprised. "I didn't know Minintos lived here. I mainly stayed near Nissel and the mountain that was behind it..."

"Well I'll be. Crystal, Milro, Rose, Ace, and Boralo." A woman's voice came from behind us. We all turned around and was shocked to find.........Saphira.

"Hey, look who it is! Shrimp! I didn't think we'd run into you that fast." Milro greeted her.

"Yeah, well, why are you guys here?" Saphira asked.

"Let's go to an Inn first." I said.

Once we paid and entered a room, I collapsed onto the bed. "A Dragon, known as the Acid Dragon, attacked Donau and melted most of the town. The Dragoon Queen sent Hajeri and I to find the other Judges and figure out who or what made the Dragon attack and why. So far, we have found Milro and Phirala, and now you."

"Where are Hajeri and Phirala then?" Saphira asked, sitting down on the bed next to me.

"Well, just a day or two ago, we were attacked by a Dragon and separated. Hajeri is with Phirala and Selistia. Oh, and Selistia is someone we met along the way." I explained.

"The Acid Dragon has a master named Nianith. We fought her and her Dragon, and won, but she got away. We damaged them badly, but by now they've probably had enough time to heal." Rose finished explaining things to Saphira.

"Two Dragons? Do you know if the second Dragon has a master?" Saphira waited for an answer.

Ace listened carefully. All of this information was new to him.

"We are not sure." Boralo was the one to answer. "We have no clue what element it is either."

"Now all we hafta find is Mike." I looked at Saphira. "Do you know where he might be?"

Saphira shook her head. "No."

"So why are you here?" Ace asked Saphira, trying to change the subject.

"I guard the Minintos here. Ever since...Mike and I broke up, I've needed something to do so I just decided to help the Minintos." Saphira stood up and walked over to another bed then sat down on it. "Let's get some sleep. We'll need to leave early in the morning if we want to reach Vidalio in less than three days."

XxXxX

I tapped my sword's blade against my shoulder as I waited impatiently. I began to tap my foot in irritation. "Hurry up, Saphira."

"It won't take long at all." Saphira ran up to one of the Minintos. The Mininto looked like he was the mayor of the town. "Here. Take this. If you ever need any help, just press this button." Saphira handed the Mininto a small device.

The Mininto thanked her and she ran back towards us. "Well, let's go now. They'll call me whenever they need help."

"'Bout time." I complained as I sheathed my sword and walked out of Seilnder.

XxXxX

We had walked a good six hours and battled a few monsters on the way.

"These things are weak." I said as I pulled my sword out of a dead Trap Plat.

Milro looked down at the dead Trap Plant. "Man, these things are weak. I've fought Triceratops stronger than that! Hell, I've fought Swift Dragons stronger than that!"

"Let's just move on." I sighed. As if on instinct, I jumped out of the way. A huge claw struck the ground where I was standing. "Not another one!"

A red Virage was standing in front of us. It grabbed for Rose, but she jumped out of its way and drew her sword. She attacked it and performed a series of attacks on it. "Demon's Dance." Her voice rang through the air.

Boralo and Ace flew up into the air and just started blasted it with energy blasts.

"My turn!" Saphira quickly Dragooned into her pink armor and wings. She traced a heart in the air with her right hand. A pink heart appeared. The heart went black as she blew it towards the Virage. When the black heart touched the Virage, it stayed glued on there. All of a sudden, smaller black hearts came out of nowhere and began hitting the Virage. Each time a heart hit the Virage, it exploded. "Deadly Desire." The attacks stopped after she said that.

"Now it's my turn." Milro Dragooned. He formed a black sphere in his hand and shot it up into the sky. He then drew his axe and threw it up in the same direction as the sphere. The axe sliced the sphere in half and made it explode. Thunder boomed throughout the sky and lightning flashed. It began to rain incredibly hard, but not water. Black energy balls. As the energy balls hit the Virage, they exploded. "Storm of Abomination." He caught his axe as it returned to him.

The Virage fell onto the ground, but stood back up slowly.

"Let me finish him off." I traced a strange symbol in the air. "Pala Talio." That was Wingly for Devil's Awakening. Fire spit out of the ground behind the Virage and formed a giant hand. The hand reached forward, grabbed the Virage, and held onto it tightly. A fireball appeared in my hand. I began throwing fireballs rapidly at the target. After I threw several hundred fire balls at the beast, I put my hands together. As I separated them, a fire ball appeared and began to grow. I then threw that at the Virage. It exploded upon contact. The fire hand then pulled the enemy into the ground. The Virage let out a horrifying scream as it disappeared into the ground.

"Overkill." Rose smirked.

"At least that got rid of the beast." I fell to the ground and let out a sigh. "I need rest...... I'm not used to using one of my strongest magic attacks..."

"Ya mean that's not your strongest attack?" Ace landed.

"I have at least two more magic attacks that are stronger than that one...good night..." I fell on my back and either passed out or just fell asleep. I couldn't tell and I don't think I really cared. As long as I got some rest......
