Well, I was so pleased with all of your reviews that I just decided to update my story again! You all want to know my secret don't you!? Don't you!? Well...I guess I can tell you...its absolutely nothing at all, all of this genius comes from the top of my head, if I were to concentrate...well....it would be above too many readers levels....I don't want to confuse any of you by doing that. And don't ask me to do it, because I am lazy. :P Anyway here is the next, just as interesting installment to "Whatever it takes!" And sorry it took over five days to update, I was too busy, and too lazy. P I'll update more often from now on. Maybe every other day.
Disclaimer: I don't think you all suspect me of owning this right? Anyway Golden sun belongs to me not, only because I am not Japanese and I do not live in Japan.
Isaac thought he was going to go insane, he slumped into his arm chair and sighed, it was going to be a long, long night. Iris would not stop bothering him about dolls, and Sharon kept walking back and forth, staring at him while smiling and drooling a bit at times, which creeped him out because normally girls like her do nothing like that. It was not long before Isaac decided to distract them all from himself, besides Mia.
"Hey, um guys..."
Everyone stopped their busy nagging and stopped suddenly, which also creeped Isaac out a bit, he did not know he had any kind of command over any of them.
"Yhea Isaac?" Sharon asked clasping her hands together and running over to him, as if she was waiting for him to talk to her.
"Yes?" Mia asked from next to him, turning around in her chair.
"What is it Isaac?" Iris asked.
"I thought maybe we could...um...visit....someone tonight, you know to get some of them acquainted with you maybe." Isaac suggested.
"That's a good Idea, maybe we could get rid of them." Mia whispered in Isaacs ear.
"Oh don't be so mean Mia." Isaac whispered back.
"What was that Isaac?" Sharon asked.
"Nothing, we were just planning who we should visit." Isaac lied.
"Oh. Who should it be?" Sharon asked.
"Felix." Mia said adding to Isaacs lying
"Oh! Felix? I haven't seen him since!" Iris exclaimed.
"Well, just be careful around him Iris, he has been selling some weird things lately, said it was a part time hobby thing, he has been acting weird lately since then." Isaac warned her wagging a finger.
"Alright, I will." She said smiling. "Say, where is Ivan?" She asked them.
"You mean midget boy?" Sharon asked.
"I'm not a midget!" A voice yelled from the closet.
"What's Ivan doing in there, Sharon?" Mia asked imposingly.
"Oh...uh...uh...Ack!" Sharon ran upstairs and went into Isaacs's room, and after an uneasy silence a sound of a window opening and a loud thump outside was heard.
"Did she just jump out of the window?" Iris asked turning to Isaac and Mia.
"I believe she just did, Iris." Isaac answered the ancient adept.
"Well, can I go see if she is alright?" Iris asked, her eyes shimmering as if to put some kind of spell on the Venus adept.
Isaac smiled; he did not know Iris was so kind. "Sure, go ahead."
Iris leapt to her feet and proceeded to run outside, looking for Sharon, who supposedly broke her face jumping out the window.
Isaac shook his head and got up, Mia doing the same.
"Lets go see if we can get him out Mia." Isaac said to her walking over to the closet.
"I hope it doesn't smell, or if he is still alive for that matter, there is limited air in there you know." Mia added.
"He's a Jupiter adept Mia, he could create his own air for as long as he likes, it cost almost little or no pysnergy you know."
"Oh Yhea, I almost forgotten about that, heh." Mia rubbed her head embarrassed.
"Get me out of here! I think there is a rat in here with me eating my cape!" Ivan exclaimed.
"Alright! I'm coming Ivan!" Isaac ran up to the knob of the door and twisted it. Nothing.
"Crap, it looks like it won't budge Isaac, here let me try something." Mia gently nudged Isaac to move while closing her eyes.
Isaac watched in interest as the knob was covered in ice. "Good Idea Mia!" Isaac complimented.
"Thanks, shall we?" Mia asked pointing to the knob and gesturing him to take over.
"Alright, Ivan! Try to get to a far corner, get away from the door!" Isaac warned him.
"Alright!" Some moving noises were heard, then silence. "Ready!"
Isaac pulled back his leg for power, and kicked the door as hard as he could; the door stood no chance, for as soon as it connected the door exploded into dust.
"Ivan stood there blinking at the huge pile of saw dust that Isaac had just made. "That was a nice critical hit Isaac, are you wearing those Riot gloves today?" Ivan asked.
"Oh, Yhea I am, they are very warm...and comfortable too." Isaac answered him, looking at the gloves.
"I found her!" Iris called from behind the three adepts.
Isaac, Mia and Ivan turned around to see Iris holding a knocked unconscious Sharon, this was evident because her eyes were in swirls and she was drooling onto Iris's robes.
"Well, that isn't very graceful." Mia teased.
"Heh..." Isaac chuckled and walked over towards Sharon and took her from Iris into his arms. "Ill set her down on the recliner; she can rest there until she wakes up later tomorrow."
"Alright. Ivan, shouldn't you go home now? Sheba must be getting quite angry with you right now." Mia asked him, turning to him.
"Holy crap! I have forgotten! I'm as good as served on a platter!" Ivan threw his hands up in the air then ran out of the house and towards her cottage towards the bottom parts of vale.
"Heh, I can't wait to see what happens to him." Mia said to herself chuckling.
"Well, what should we do with you Iris?" Isaac asked her, turning to face the goddess.
"I don't know... can I stay here? You don't really need to give me a bed or anything, I don't need to sleep, unless someone accidentally or purposely cast revive on me..." Iris told him.
"Really?" Mia asked walking over to Iris and Isaac. "So if we were to cast a single revive on you, you would turn back into a human?"
"Uh...yes. Why?" Iris asked, and then horror struck her heart as both adepts put up their hands, eyes closed. "No! I don't want to use the bathroom or eat! I can't tell you how humanly disabling that feels! NOOOO!!!!!" There was a large flash of light and some yelling about having to take bathes.
"Heh. I always wanted to do that." Isaac said satisfied.
"Me too." Mia agreed as the light faded and it revealed Iris, in the flesh and robes.
"Well, that worked just fine." Isaac said smiling at the miserable looking Iris.
"Yep, and she looks great." Mia complimented.
"No! Now I have to eat, and take bathes!" Iris whined.
"Oh, you'll get used to all of that." Mia assured her.
"OH yeah, what about that monthly thing!?" Iris screamed. "I just gotten used to being without that!"
"Oh....heh...monthly..." Isaac chuckled.
Mia smacked him upside the head. "You!" Mia smiled and giggled, she couldn't be mad at him anyway if she tried.
From the recliner a low groan was heard, and a few shifting noises along with it. "What happened?" Sharon called from the living room.
"Looks like she is stronger than we thought." Isaac told Mia.
"Guess so, we should check her." Mia suggested walking towards the living room, Isaac close behind her.
"Hey! Wait up for me!" Iris called, after being dazed from the sudden revival, she decided that it couldn't be too bad to be human again, after all, she did like the taste of food, maybe it was good, heaven would just have to find a new angel to direct souls for awhile. She would get her revenge on them though, she wasn't about to let them get away with it.
"Oh, hey Isaac!" Sharon walked up to Isaac and hugged him. "I thought I was dead! But then again...if I was thinking I was dead...then I must not be?" Sharon asked letting go.
"There are a lot of assumptions about death, no one truly knows what happens after death, but if there was truly nothing behind death, and then we might as well have never been created." Isaac answered her thoughtfully, completely forgetting the current situation.
"That was a confusing answer, Isaac." Mia said looking at him, she did not know how high his intellect was, but intellect alone is all anyone would need. "Are you ok Sharon?" Mia asked, not bothering to listen if Isaac had an answer or not, seeing it was a question that could be answered optionally.
"Yhea, I am fine Mia, thanks for asking me that." Sharon answered.
"Your welcome."
"Hey, since everyone is fine now, shouldn't we go see Felix now? I promised him that I would take a look at his new methods of selling." Isaac asked.
"Yes!" Iris screamed suddenly behind them, scaring all three of the adepts.
"Ack!" Sharon took a leap back. "I thought she was a spirit! When did she become alive?" Sharon asked looking at her and blinking with confusion.
"Isaac and I cast revive on her." Mia said smiling.
"Yep, and it was fun!" Isaac added.
"Oh, that's just wrong...reviving a 3000 year old women to life, kind of creepy...she looks 18." Sharon said taking a closer look at Iris's smiling face.
"Yhea, I was 18 when I was killed and chosen to be a guider of souls." Iris told her, not seeming to be fazed at all by telling them.
"Well...sorry to hear that." Sharon replied a little guiltily.
"That's fine, it was my fault anyway." Iris reassured her, seeing her guilt.
"How's that?" Isaac asked.
"I thought a monsters sword was a lickerish..." Iris told him.
"That's...just stupid." Mia told Iris, disbelieving the story.
"Yep, sure was." Iris agreed.
"Well, this was an interesting thing to learn." Mia stated.
"Indeed." Sharon agreed.
An uneasy silence followed soon after, each of them looking at each other, waiting for the other to make a move to get started, no matter what it was, but nothing came. That is until Iris groaned with annoyance and began to speak.
"Can we go now? I'm getting tired of this." Iris asked impatiently.
The others exchanged glances and agreed. "Sure. Let's go." The three said simultaneously.
Felix smiled at his handy work before him; he was sure this technique would be an award winner for his products! He specialized in carpeting, and seeing that he was a Venus adept, he was very good at it, the only reason he did so, was to get some cash to carry, just for the sake of it. He was currently sculpting a model of the battle he and his friends had with the Doom Dragon it was an epic battle, and this one could take awhile, but it was worth it. No soon after Felix had sent some strange pysnergy into the sculpture had a knock of his door came.
"Felix! Would you get that?" Jenna yelled from her room. "I'm tired."
"Alright Jenna, it's probably just Isaac." Felix stood up from his stool at the table he sat on and walked over to the door.
"Hello."
"Hi Felix!" Iris yelled like a happy school girl and jumped at him, snuggling him while Felix lost his balance and fell.
"Ack!" Felix yelped, as he was tackled by the unknown to him goddess.
"Well, that seems rather unpleasant." Sharon stated, looking at the poor guy.
"He's used to it; Sheba has done it to him enough." Isaac told her.
Mia laughed a bit and pulled Iris off of the knocked unconscious Felix.
"Hey! Let go!" Iris yelped, struggling to get away from her.
"Calm down! You can snuggle him later!" Mia told her.
"Alright..." Iris sighed.
"Dang, who is she?" Felix asked, getting himself up.
"This? She is Iris." Isaac told him.
"You're kidding me." Felix asked blinking.
"Nope, Isaac and Mia as well as I, seen Iris interrupt her own summon, so she was stuck, not so soon after they decided to cast revive on her, for kicks." Sharon told him, smiling at her ability to explain.
"THIS is IRIS?!" Felix yelled pointing at her disbelieving them.
"Yes, I am!" Iris told him, biting his finger.
"Ouch!" Yelped Felix as he drew back his finger and blew on it. "That was completely uncalled for!"
"Well, you deserve it." Iris told him.
Mia giggled for the second time and pointed at Felix, teasing him.
"Shessh." Felix complained.
"So, Felix, what is this new technique you have learned?" Isaac asked, suddenly changing the subject.
"Oh, yes, that." Felix smiled eerily and bowed with his right arm extended towards the living room. "After you, you're in for a surprise." He whispered, but loudly enough for them to hear it.
"Ok..." Sharon said, side stepping past Felix along with Iris, Isaac and Mia, who were also taking careful steps past the perturbed Felix.
After everyone settled in the living room, Felix came in, holding something strange behind his back, it was too big to be a sword, and to fat to be a mace or anything, but it was rather strange looking for something covered in a purple and white cloth saying "Cheese!" in big bold black and white letters on it.
"Ready for something truly amazing my little ones?" Felix said in a French accent.
"Stop that Felix, your scaring the girls." Isaac told him.
"Yhea!" Sharon and the other two agreed simultaneously.
"Fine, fine, sheesh...such little babies." Felix mumbled.
"What was that Felix?" Isaac asked dangerously, narrowing his eyes.
"Nothing!" Felix replied quickly, fearing they would all jump him.
"Well, show us your technique! I really want to see it." Iris demanded.
"Alright, here it is!" Felix threw off the cloth and revealed the most amazing thing any of the adepts have ever seen.
"Good gosh!" Mia said in complete awe.
"Wow..." Sharon whispered.
"Truly Amazing." Isaac remarked.
"Yay!" Iris cheered.
