CW- look, I'll make this simple, you don't have to go home, but you got to get the heck out of here

CW- OMG! I'll be right back, Angelos, answer the reviews please.
Angelos- sure, why not
Kratos Aurion fan- always wonderful to hear from you, Lloyd appreciates the fact that you care about him so much. I'm really looking forward to saturday
Shadowofthewave- hilarious review, but please don't dissect the author. If you do, then the story will never finish, and you'll spend the rest of you're life wondering what could have happened in the second half of the story and it will just drive you insane. Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah. Sorry, that was a little weird, anyway, thanks for the review
Disappointment, Houjun Ri didn't review, it kinda worries me. If she misses another chapter without a good excuse then I may half to name a new number one fan may, that's a big MAY.
Moments later………
CW- Lloyd, what were you thinking, what happened to "We're too young".
Lloyd – get off my back
CW- and you Collette, I'm very disappointed
Collette- I'm sorry
CW- humph, while I straighten these two out, you can go ahead and read this next chapter
Lloyd takes off running, dragging Collette behind him
CW- hey, COME BACK HERE RIGHT NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!
Runs after them
Chapter 11
The Arrival, and The Discovery
Mere hours after the angel attack, the group was rejuvenated and ready to venture on to Luminous. "Oh no!" cried Collette in despair.
"What's wrong Collette?" asked Lloyd worriedly as he reclined in a chair.
"I just realized that the party was ruined in the battle".
"Party?" asked Genis confused.
"Yes" replied Sheena as she patted Collette on the back to comfort her, "we had planned a party for the winner of you're match, but now it's ruined".
"Don't worry about it" remarked Genis, "as soon as we finish this mission, I'll cook the biggest feast I've ever made, and we can throw that party for our success. Everyone looked at each other and nodded Genis obtained the title: party planner.
"Attention everyone" called Yuan, "we have now arrived, if you look out the window, you can see a city below". The group turned to look out the window, and beheld a beautiful city. The streets were lined with angels walking, shopping, chatting and so on.
"So" began Regal, "how do we exit Darris Kharlon without a portal?"
"We make one" replied Yuan as he pushed a button. A warp portal pad suddenly shot out of Darris Kharlon and landed in the middle of the town square. The townsfolk looked worried for a moment, but then they started to think it was Angelos' doing and went on with their lives. "Let's go" commanded Yuan.
The group dismounted from Darris Kharlon and proceed to town. As they entered, a town label came up that said Illume, the town named for the great lord.
"Now all we need to do" started Persea, "is find Angelos' castle".
"How about we split up" suggested Zelos, "we go in groups of 2, ask around town, and meet back here in 1 hour".
"Zelos" said Raine, "that's the single most intelligent thing I've ever heard you say". The whole group laughed, but Zelos just shrugged it off. Everyone split off into their groups couples and went to work. They asked every angel they could find. They searched and searched, but couldn't find anything.
1 hour later……….
The team met back at town square, but each pair could only say that they found absolutely nothing.
"Perhaps I can be of assistance" called a voice from on top of a nearby building. The group turned to see none other then Kratos.
"Dad!" shouted Lloyd as he grabbed his sword, "are you here to try and make up for the mistakes of you're angel team?"
"Come now Lloyd" began Kratos, "did you really believe that my mind could be taken over so easily?" Lloyd thought for a moment.
"It's true" said Yuan, "he was never under Angelos' control".
"Then why did he attack us?" asked Lloyd.
"My son" began Kratos, "haven't I taught you anything over the last 3 years. You should always "Keep you're friends close…..".
""And you're enemies even closer"" replied Lloyd. CW- yes, that is a very famous quote, but I'm not sure from whom. In any case I don't own it disclaimer.
"Correct" replied Kratos as he jumped off of the building and landed in front of them. Lloyd's eyes began to tear, his lips were quivering, and for the first time that anyone in the group had ever known about, he cried. He let his emotions out and cried full force, all the time hugging his father tightly.
"Dad" he whined, "I thought I had lost you forever".
"Calm down Lloyd" whispered Kratos as he hugged his sun, "it's ok, everything will be ok". Kratos re-joined the party
One sad and teary reunion later…………..
The team followed Kratos as he led them all the way to the edge of town.
"Where are we going?" asked Collette as she hovered along.
"To Angelos' castle" replied the seraphim angel. The team walked along until they reached a completely empty part of town. "Here we are" said Kratos.
"There's nothing here" complained Lloyd.
"Or is there?" murmured Kratos. Just then, a rumbling sound was heard and a golden gate appeared out of nowhere.
"Incredible" whispered Raine in aw, "where is the control console, or the sorcerer who summoned the gate. I must know how it works". She started into one of her little fits and everyone just seemed to ignore her. While she prattled on about the gate, everyone else entered it and left her behind. She continued to prattle on until Genis came back through the gate and dragged her to the other side.
Moments later, at Castle Illume……….
The group arrived at the castle, with Genis still dragging Raine. The halls were all lined with a golden trim, and very statue and painting that was on display had at least a small hint of gold in or around it.
"The guy is totally obsessed with gold isn't he?" remarked Lloyd to Kratos.
"His sanity is questionable" replied Kratos as he took the lead of the group. They followed him down a long hallway, all the time sneaking around and avoiding the guards. He led them down to the end of the 3rd floor east wing corridor. And stopped to face the rest of the group.
"I warn you now" he began, "What you're about to see is not for the faint of heart, and you must not approach this room, getting any closer will set off the alarm". The others agreed, and Kratos turned to the wall and pushed a hidden switch. The wall shook lightly for a moment, and then parted revealing a hidden room. Inside, lying on a golden table, was Martel.
"Oh my gosh!" squealed Collette, "is she alright?"
"She's still alive" replied Kratos, "but she is being held in crio-stasis or suspended animation".
"Can't we do anything?" asked Regal.
"No" continued Kratos, "if we move her, Angelos will come down here personally".
"I'm already here" came a voice from behind them, "and I'm actually quite surprised. Kratos was fooling me the whole time and I didn't realize it".
"Angelos, you freak" called Lloyd, "let Martel go now".
"I'm afraid I can't do that" replied the evil angel, "I still need her for my little project".
"What project?" asked Raine impatiently.
"I'm glad you asked" replied Angelos as he snapped his fingers. Just then, a small case opened up inside Martel's room, and inside, was a Cruxious crystal. "You see" he continued, "I plan to use DNA from Martel, along with some of her power in order to execute my master plan".
"Which is?" asked Lloyd.
"My plan" continued Angelos, "is the resurrection of lord Mithos Yuggdrasiel, mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah".
