Rae Rae- Alright, Rae is letting me do a chapter! And I think we should make some changes to the new character Jade.

Am I doing the right thing letting her take over-?

Rae Rae- We need a keen person, quick to catch on to things. And not so naive. And the dog is a Golden retriever. Lets go. Disclaimer-thingy, please!

Camelot and Nintendo own all Golden Sun characters (exept for OC's), psynergies(exept for made up elements and things), and they, only, were the ones that made the GS series. We sincerely thank them for coming up with such a good idea for RPG's and-

Rae Rae- Enough said.

Jade's Big Surprise

Everyone got of the boat and looked and started walking. Jade heard a rustle in some bushes.

"You guys hear that?" she asked. Spirit growled. A chimera and a green wolf jumped out. The wolf snarled at Spirit. The Golden Retriever barked as jade stood in front of him. She pulled out her bow and an arrow. The wolf lunged at her.

Jade shot it in the head and it fell to the ground. She immediately got out another arrow and shot the wolf again. The chimera roared and unleashed fire breath.

"Ahhh!" Sasha, Kevin, and Taryn were burned. Roscoe and the others were out of range.

"Storm Ray!" Taryn held up his Meditation Rod, and the chimera was hit with bolts of electricity. "Wish I had curing spells right now."

"You're not the only one," Aiden said, and cast inferno on the wolf, finishing it off.

Sasha cast glacier. The chimera was frozen temporarily in a block of ice. Roscoe cast glacier and it was frozen in a bigger chunk of ice.

"A chimera would be dead right now," Sasha said.

"Not in Endira," Roscoe told her.

Candace cast clay spire. The chimera destroyed one spire with fire breath, but was hit square in the head with the other. "Alright, I did it!"

The chimera attacked her. Candace fell as the chimera scratched her with long, sharp claws.

"Candace, are you okay?" Aiden unleashed the djinni Char and went over to her. She sat there, curled up and breathing for a while. Then she sat up. It was horrible. There were three long claw marks that ran down from her forehead to her left leg. She blinked back tears and winced as some escaped her eyelids into the cuts.

"Yea..." she assured him. She cast potent cure. "It hurt, though. That's all."

Aiden turned around and looked at the chimera. It was stunned. Sasha and the others were looking over at them.

"It won't be stunned for long!" Aiden told them.

Jade hit it with a white staff. Kevin's cut off one of its heads. Alanna held her Phaeton's blade up as it unleashed light surge. The chimera disinergarated to ashes.

"You guys did a good job." Jade turned around. "Dad!" She ran and hugged the man. Spirit barked and ran over, jumping up and down. The dark haired man put her down and Spirit immediately jumped on him. They both fell and the dog licked all over his face.

"Down boy," Jade laughed. "Dad, where have you been?"

"Well, I had some... errands to run."

Jade looked at him with penetrating green-blue eyes. "You're lying."

"Never could keep nothing from you, could I ?" Her dad replied, knowingly.

Jade shook her head. "Meet my friends. This is Sasha, Kevin, Alanna, Taryn, Candace, Roscoe, and Aiden."

He smiled at them. "I am John. But you call me Jed."

"Hi, Jed." Candace said, nodding at him. "That chimera ruined my clothes... I'm gonna go back to the ship to get my other pair. I can get back on my own."

Jed then got serious. "You have to be careful out here. I think you've stumbled into a chimera nest."

"A chimera nest?" Alanna and Taryn exclaimed.

"Shh!" Jed shushed them. "We'll have to go through quietly so you don't wake them up."

Sasha walked up beside Spirit. "Let's go guys."

Kali paced around the cold cell. She hadn't had anything to eat since she'd gotten there. And it was cold. "I definitely need to consider a wardrobe change if I get out of here..." She said, thinking of switching from shorts to jeans.

She had figured out a little while ago that she couldn't use her psynergy. That sucked also. She could've did something herself to get out of here, instead of having Reid's help. Lena and Fang were probably looking everywhere for me, she thought. What if something happened and she wasn't there to help? And what if Alex came early and killed them all off? She wouldn't be there at all! Kali started to laugh. "Before, I wouldn'tve cared about anyone... I probably would have helped Alex and then killed him for all the power." She thought about the time she first met Lena.

Flashback

Kali cursed. She couldn't get her foot out! Blood covered the two big peices of rock she'd gotten her foot stuck in- her blood.

"Need some help?" Kali looked up. A girl with long silver/white hair, tan looking skin, amber eyes, and a white and gold kimono was standing behind her.

Kali cut her eyes at the girl. "I don't need anyone's help." She turned back around and started pulling and wincing.

The silver-haired girl scrutinized the scene. Kali, who realized the girl was still there, stopped and turned around. "What do you want?"

"I want to help," said the girl persistently.

"Maybe I don't want your help!" Kali snapped.

"Why don't you want anyone's help?" she asked.

"You are stubborn," Kali said.

The girl cocked her head to the side and smiled. "I know. So lemme help."

Kali looked at the girl hopelessly and shrugged. "Fine. What the heck. Just hurry."

The girl got on her knees and surveyed once more.

"Are you gonna just sit there all day, or– " The girl held her hand up to silence Kali. She placed her hand over the rocks and closed her eyes. Then she glowed a faint white color. It got brighter and brighter until Kali had to close her eyes. Then the glowing stopped. Kali looked and gasped at what she saw. The rocks had turned white and were deteriorating! "You're a Sol adept!" Kali glared at her.

"...So," the girl started to help her up, but Kali pushed her away. "I don't need a Sol adept's help! I can go on my own."

"What is your problem?" the girl asked her.

"You!" Kali told her.

"You are a darkness adept, aren't you?" the girl smiled. "I knew it!"

"So, what of it, girl?" Kali said.

"Excuse me?" she said. "But you and I look roughly the same age. And I have a name."

"I don't care to know."

"What's your name?"

"That's for me to know, and you not to find out," Kali said coldly. She tried to get up and fell. The silver-haired girl closed her eyes and shook her head.

"You need to learn when to ask for help," she told Kali.

"Will you get off my back if I do?" Kali asked. The girl nodded. Kali let out a frustrated sigh. "Fine. Whatever. Fang!" A big black snake came slithering and hissing from around a rock. The girl jumped back and shrieked. It came up to her and got in her face, hissing dangerously.

"His venom can kill you in about ten minutes or less," Kali said. "I was gonna let him bite you..."

"You what?"

"Just help me up if you're gonna help."

The girl cautiously went over to Kali and helped her up, surprisingly with out any trouble. She stuck two of her fingers in her mouth and whistled loudly. A golden cloud shot down to them. "This is my nimbus," she told Kali. She helped her on.

"Aren't you gonna make room for Fang?" Kali said.

"Oh. Uh... The snake..." Lena got on her knees. Kali moved over and Fang slithered on. "Hey, what's your name?" the girl asked Kali.

"My name is Kali."

"I'm Lena."

End flashback

Kali remembered it like it was yesterday. "I've changed a lot since then..." She thought about how she'd changed inside and out. She wasn't as pale as she used to be for one. And she has more of a heart and generosity...

Then a thought crossed her mind that she didn't think she'd ever think. I miss home. I miss dad and... my sister... and my grandparents. She had left with her mom when she was nine. Her sister was just six then... She'd be thirteen, now. Kali had inherited all her mother's features. The wavy raven black hair. The height. The- well, the blue-green eyes were her dad's. Her sister had got most of her dad's looks. The brunette hair, the normal height, and the eyes. Even the psynergy! She sighed and sat down, thinking about home. And how hungry she was.

Lena looked down. A town was just below her. "We'll check here, Fang." She lowered the nimbus, hopped off, and entered the gates.

Candace ran onto the ship and looked off somewhere. She gasped. "A town!" She ran into the ship to change into her other clothes. A yellow shirt with green sleeves, and a skirt. Candace sighed. "Goodbye, jeans..." she said, pulling them off and throwing them somewhere. She threw her now ripped pink t-shirt. At least she could keep the sneakers. She ran to the kitchen to grab a banana before she left. Candace went out and stretched. "...Nice to have a wonderful ship to yourself."

Someone was watching her. She looked around. No one was there. Candace started to get off the ship, but jumped bck when she saw someone in front of her. "Who are you?" she asked the person.

Rae Rae- ... Um...

Go on and say it!

Rae Rae- But I don't want to... It's not my style.

Is your style a broken nose?

Rae Rae- No! Fine... (sigh) I- I-

You have never said sorry a day in your life, have you?

Rae Rae- No... I-m... s-o... sor-

(Shakes head)

Rae Rae- I'm- s-s-sorr- y... for waiting so long to update... (beats chest and clears throat) Well, glad that's done! (Walks away)

(Rolls eyes) I'm sorry she took so long to update, and I apologize for her rudeness. Anyway, who do you think Kali's sister and father is? And who is Candace talking to? I'll try to update this one quicker, but I might not, due to a very fun trip to Geyser Falls this coming Monday, and I have a heep of other things to do... please review! And from now on, at the end of my stories, I'll have a list of my best reviewers or something like that. Just to acknowledge some of the good authors out there who review when they read a story. But you have to be logged in. And also, for some reason, I thought I should do this:

Character Bios

Sasha- (parents, Isaac/Mia) Mercury adept.14. Not as quiet as her parents are, and thinks going on a perilous adventure like her parents and their friends did would be cool.

Kevin- (parents, Isaac/Mia)Venus adept.13. Sasha's brother. More quiet than Sasha is, but still not as quiet and shy as their parents. His hair is a little longer than his father's, and he has his grandfather's haircolor instead of his dad's.

Alanna- (parents, Jenna/Garet)Mars adept. 15. A fiery, loud girl(like mother like daughter, eh?)that sticks up for her friends and her beliefs at the same time. Extremely loyal, and though she might come off as pushy, rude, and arrogant sometimes, she'll most likely be the on by your side if everyone else has left you.

Taryn- (parents, Sheba/Ivan)Jupiter adept. 14. A girl crazy teenager who has the personality of a Mars adept. For a boy who loves to eat, he's not very big at all.

Candace- (raised by the friends Felix and Picard) Venus adept(bet you never saw a female earth adept coming!). 14. A fun loving, brave girl, who can handle tough injuries as I'm sure you've seen. Very curious.

Roscoe- (parents unknown) Mercury adept. 14. A mysterious(no, he isn't from Lemuria) boy who snuck onto the ship while they weren't there.

Aiden -(parents, Frieda/Greg) Mars adept. 15. A taciturn, patient fellow. He joined Sasha and co. so his parents could see that he isn't the horrible boy he used to be and to help save the world.

Jade-(parent, Jed) Jupiter adept. 13. A serene, mature, animal loving girl that joined them looking for her father and ended up staying with the group.
