A/N : Okay, here I'm back! Sniff sniff Sorry for the huge time period of time without updating. In truth, the only reason that could explain that I'm so late is because I was playing Tale of Symphonia, the only decent rpg on gamecube until now (and the cold I caught kinda slow me down) I must admit that if Warcraft 3 is a real drug, Tale of Symphonia is the opium of video games hehe. Anyway, let's go with the story…(cough)

Fantasy Chick3435: Yep! Indead, Jon should have given a hug to Jo in your story…speaking about your story…I know someone that is even worst than me for taking time to update! Guess who! Oh well…I guess you understood my message :) Thanks for your review!

Viewtiful John: I didn't planned the story to be so much like the storyline of perfect dark. And let's not forget that if the humans in this world are late with technology compared to the future world, it's the same thing for the Skedars and the Maians. Of course, their technology will be more advanced than humans (just like in the game) but it won't be as advanced as in the game. Thanks for reviewing!

TetraLink17: Yeah, the fact that Jon was Jo's husband was quite obvious I think. It will take a really HUGE period of time before Jo will be able to go back to her time…and who said she will really go back to her time ;) Thank you for reviewing!

Peachrocks: Ah, here it is! I didn't knew what word I should use to designate the feminine word to say "lord". I thought about "lordess" but this word doesn't even exist :P So now I'll correct myself and use "lady" Thanks for your review.

Spider-bear: Myoga theme? :S I don't really like that theme…well I don't like anything about Myoga at all…He's so annoying! Anyway…yes, Cassandra is truly a bitch. She shall pay someday…Anyway, thanks 4 your review :)

Chapter 6: Joanna's fate

"What's his name?" asked Joanna as she looked at the horse.

"Pheonix" answered Jonathan

"Oh! This is such a great name for a horse!" replied Joanna with a smile.

Jonathan tried to ignore this sentence. She was really the same as his dead wife

Here comes a flashback:

Jonathan stopped in a small village on Carrington's domain. He never met this lord before but he only heard good words about him so Jon wasn't worried. He knew he was going to be welcome. He and his horse truly needed some rest in a decent place. He quickly found an inn and luckily for him, this inn had a stable where his horse could rest. Then he met her. When he went to bring his horse to the stable, he met Joanna. She greeted him with a beaming smile.

"Hi! It seems that I have some job today!" commented Joanna.

"Yes, would you mind taking care of my horse for a while?" asked Jonathan.

"Of course not! It's my job after all! What's the name of your horse?" asked curiously Joanna.

"Pheonix"

"Oh! This is such a great name for a horse!" commented Joanna with a grin.

Jonathan could only smile at the comment the young girl made.

"I'm glad you like his name. But I'm amazed you asked the name of this horse before the name of his owner" commented Jonathan with an amused smile.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm so impolite sometimes…" answered Joanna with a shy smile.

Then he learned that the name of this young woman was Joanna Darkness. He didn't understood why she had such a name. She was always smiling and not worrying about anything. At that time…she was so naïve and innocent. Althought she almost looked like she was an adult, she only 14. And he was 19. She was very young and so he was (A/N: I know that maybe such a big difference of age at such age can be quite disturbing for some of you but it was like that in the middle age so no complaining please) Then Jonathan never left Carrington's domain anymore. After Lord Carrington met him, he instantly asked Jonathan to work for him. Jon was a very talented archer after all…he was the best of all. Jonathan and Joanna got married three months later and Joanna fell pregnant around a month later. She beared 2 children with one year of difference and some time after she had triplets…the three children who were killed with their mother…

"Jonathan?"

"Huh? Yes?" asked Jonathan with a confused tone.

"What were you thinking about? You stayed in the moon for around 10 minutes" commented Joanna.

"…Sorry…I'm a bit tired I guess…"

"Anyway, would you like to show me around?" asked Joanna.

"…Why me? You know I'm tired" answered Jonathan with a sigh.

"Come one you're the only one I know!" replied Joanna.

"Don't be stupid. You know everyone…they're all the same as the people in your world, right?"

"Yeah but…"

"No but. I already saved you so you should be thankful and let me have peace for a while…understood?" replied Jonathan.

"…Okay then…I guess I should ask someone else" answered Joanna with a slightly disapointed tone.

"Okay okay! I'll make you visit the castle. Happy?" asked Jonathan with irritated tone.

"Thank you, I was a bit shy to ask someone I never officially talked to" answered Joanna with a slight smile.

This woman has so much power on him…

…………………………………………………………

As Jonathan was showing Joanna around, a woman that Joanna recognized as Velvet told them that Carrington wished to see them. So Jo and Jon quickly met Lord Carrington.

"You asked to see us Lord Carrington" asked Jonathan.

"Yes…I thought a lot about Joanna's current situation…"

"And?" Joanna asked.

"There is no real logical reason to explain what happened. But I have a hypothesis. I think that the Joanna of our own world wasn't supposed to die…and that you were brought here to accomplish what she was never able to do…Joanna…I think you're here to replace Lady Darkness…" explained Carrington.

Joanna's face grew white. It seems that she wasn't going back home very soon.

"But…you didn't find anything that could bring me back home?" asked Joanna.

"I'm sad to tell you no…."

"So…you're telling me that I'm supposed to replace her? Like she never died at all?!" asked Joanna with a shocked tone.

"No…of course not…I won't force you to do anything you don't want to do…it's just my theory…and I guess you wouldn't be obligated to replace Joanna Darkness in everything she was…I was more thinking about the fact that she was supposed to kill the Queen of those dragons…" answered calmly Carrington.

"You mean that you want Joanna…THIS Joanna to become a warrior?!" asked Jonathan with a puzzled tone.

"Yes, and this is why I wanted to see you…indeed she has a very powerful weapon but she cannot depend on it eternally…she'll need to know how to use the weapons of this world…and I would like you to train her" answered Carrington.

Now it was Jonathan's turn to have a shocked gaze.

End of chapter 6

I know…this wasn't really long but it's better than not updating at all. Now you're better review or I'll send an evil Jeffrey on you (evil grin) Or even worse…I'll send my evil cold on you BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA(COUGH) Argh…stupid cold…
