RW: Whoa! I haven't type a story for, hell, I don't know now! Sheena! Where are you?
Sheena: Hey, is that you, RW?
RW: Yes, I'm back! (attempts to hug her)
Sheena: RW! (runs to RW and slaps him)
RW: Hey! What was that for?
Sheena: I've been waiting for your call!
RW: Sheena! Let's not talk about this...
Sheena: I've been waiting patiently and patiently and patiently and patiently for you to call me, but nooooooo, you had to screw around with the other girls on your birthday!
RW: Huh?
Sheena: And you didn't include me! What kind of a person are you? You insignificant creep!
RW: I'm sorry!
Sheena: Sorry my ass! First you left claiming that you were sick, then you left Zelos with the story then you left without telling me that you're having a group orgy!
RW: I did not have a group orgy!
Sheena: Yes you did!
RW: Who said that?
Sheena: Ze- (hesitates)
RW: I rest my case.
(No seriously, I'm truly sorry for not updating for a hecka long time. I was doing fanart at fanart-central dot net. If you want to see my drawings, click my homepage in my profile. Ech, this chapter won't be long because most I thought up myself and I lost my rough draft of ALL of my chapters! So yeah, expect some spelling/grammar errors! D )
Review Responses:
Cerse Luminara: I didn't mention your characters at the end of the chapter, because I'm lazy. (...)
Theblacklashwave: Thank you as usual.
Zelosfangurl: Thank you for lovin' my fic, I have updated.
Rayestar Ikina: I have recieved your trailer thingy and, geez, I'm so fking lazy! You WERE right about Lloyd saying, "Sakerou!" but that's not what he says when he appears. They're just quotes throughout the game that points out the character. For example for Raine she says: "This must be built by magitechnology, fantastic!" Then it shows other scenes of her in it. I haven't gotten close to translation ALL of it but I got most of them. But again, I'm lazy. Blah.
ShimaGenki: I have written some more!
Treekicker: I still yet to read Ch. 7 on your fanfic! Crom!
Lunatic Pandora1: I also like that scene too...
Disclaimer: I do not own Tales of Symphonia if I did, well, you know why. (Okay, so you don't, I don't either...)
14) Face-off
Zelos, in Lloyd's body, and Lloyd, in Zelos' body, stares at the two familiar figures. One figure looked exactly like Lloyd and the other looked exactly like Zelos, but they had a grim expression and their skin tone was slightly gray.
"How are we going to come across that?" Zelos blurted.
The gray-skinned counterparts took out their swords and starts flipping it around. Then they stopped at a fighter stance.
"Screw this!" Lloyd turned around and attempted to run for it. The gray-skinned Lloyd flips towards the Zelos body and strikes him down. "Whoa!"
"Lloyd!" Zelos takes out his double swords and tries to attack the fake Lloyd, but the gray-skinned Zelos tackles him away from the two Lloyds. Zelos quickly gets up and stares at the possessed-looking Zelos. "Man, do I look that ugly in that skin?" After he finished his sentence, he didn't see the Demon Fang going toward him and he got hit. Normally he'd flinch, but this is different. When he got hit with that Demon Fang, he flew.
Like wind.
"Whoooooooa!" Zelos flew so high that he hit the celing of the unfamiliar room and made him fall flat on the ground.
"...ow."
The fake Lloyd started swinging his swords so violently that Lloyd, in Zelos' body, couldn't keep up with him. He took a thrust from the imposter and flew back as a result of a powerful blow...and landed on Zelos.
"Arrrgh! Lloyd!" Zelos grumped.
"Sorry!"
"Get up!"
Before Lloyd got a chance to get up, two Demon Fangs approached them.
And they got hit again.
"Whooooooooa!" They yelled in sync as they both flew across the room and hit the wall on the other side. They hopelessly fell on the ground, face down, already tired physically and mentally.
"Got any ideas?" Zelos gagged.
"Thinking!" Lloyd grunted.
The fake counterparts appeared before them and glares at them as they got their swords ready.
"Quickly!" Zelos yelled.
"Can you see I'm thinking?" Lloyd remains face down on the ground.
The swords from the fakes starts to raise.
"You're no help, Lloyd."
They hoped for the worst as they were about to feel the pain of death. Then five seconds past...
"Are we dead yet?" Lloyd blurted.
"I dunno! I hope it ends!" Zelos replied.
"Lloyd? Zelos?" A familiar voice yelled.
"Hm?" They both look up and saw that they weren't in that unfamiliar room anymore, but a confined room with a man in glowing shackles.
"Is that...?"
Kratos frantically types on his silver keyboard as he looks at every monitor. "Got him."
The monitor turns to Lloyd and Zelos, whose bodies are still on the ground. Right next to them is that man with the glowing shackles.
"That should give them some time. Now I need to settle the score with the bastard." With that, Kratos turns away from the monitors and enters a silver door.
"Blast it!" "Yuan" slams his hand on the vanilla desk as his eyes starts to change. "He's in! Won't be long until they find him. Dammit!"
WIth a loud grunt, "Yuan" brushes his cape and walks away.
"It's Yuan!" Zelos spat.
"What are you doing here?" Yuan asked in a rather calm tone.
"You're tied up!" Lloyd pointed.
"No, really?" Zelos said sarcastically, "So you must be the real one, huh?"
"I have always been." Yuan said, still in a calm voice. "How long have I been here?"
"Beats me," Lloyd blurted, "we just got here."
Suddenly the glowing shackles on Yuan's wrists magially disappeared. "Wha-?"
"Hey! They're gone!" Lloyd said.
"What's going on here?" Zelos looks around trying to look for an exit. "Argh! There's no door!"
"Don't worry," said another familiar voice.
"Kratos?"
"Stand still," says Kratos. "I'll reunite you with the others."
"Where are you, dad?" Lloyd yelled to the celing.
"Let's not worry about where I am, you need to get out of here."
"Okay, now I'm confused." Zelos said, "What are we supposed to do?"
"Find the rest of our friends. Help Yuantoo."
"You're the same as ever, Kratos." Yuan joked.
"Enough blabbering, stand still."
Lloyd, Zelos and Yuan found themselves teleported to another unfamiliar room, but this time there were people hanging on top of the celing.
"What happened to them?" Lloyd pointed to the six skeletons hanging on the celing.
"Ech, hideous." Zelos commented.
Below the skeletons was a pile of clothing on the floor. Yuan approaches the pile and examines them. "Hmm, it's burnted."
"Hey! Wait!" Zelos takes the piece of clothing from Yuan. "This looks like..."
"Colette...?" Lloyd slowly goes down to his knees as he sees a familiar white boot with blue stipes on it. "No, it can't be..."
"This is Sheena's ribbon..." Zelos softly spoke, "...and this is Raine's blouse..."
"...Genis' shirt...Regal's pants...Presea's glove..."
"He killed them..." Yuan spat.
Lloyd, now filled with tears, looks up at the six hanging skeleton again. He didn't know it was them. How could he be so naive...? There was something else inside Colette's shoe. It was stringy. When he revealed it, it was a lock of his hair. She kept it all this time knowing that she would have forgave him for what he did to Sheena. But then she threw it at him, didn't she? Maybe he was so absorbed trying to get his body back that he forgot about the hair... but now it's too late. Colette...everyone...is gone...
Lloyd clenches his lock of hair and began to yell at the top of his lungs.
"NOOOOOOOO!"
