Sheena: Tales of Summoning
Disclaimer: I do not own this. If I did, wow, hey I'd be rich! And…I'd also make another tales series on the Nintendo systems! Because it's not fair that Tales of Eternia is only on Playstation 2. We need a petition!
Sheena: Tales of Summoning
Chapter 14: Solar Adventure Part 2
A/N: Since I found out this term, I'll use it. I'm sorry for some OOCs, but this is sort of how I think they would act. Note the sort of…also sorry for any typos either and thanks for reviewing everyone! Yay! Reviews help me get better at writing. Also, S.Fujibayashi is the name of the person who wrote the opening theme song to Tales of Phantasia, The Dream Will Never Die! Anyway, bear with me a little longer and then I will begin to write Raine: Tales of Healing Left Undone! And, for the Zelos past screw up, well this was after that, and if there are any other past (as a child flashbacks) they are also after. because I have no idea what happened so let's just say it makes sense. Also… if you haven't noticed by now…all the "character journeys" (which by the way I found out you spell it with a y…) all begin with the word Tales, meaning that it still is a Tale of the new world, a Tale of Symphonia still, that affects the characters majorly until they finish those journeys and must fight again for the tree. And I'm, not supposed to be giving that away. Ignore that. You did not see those seven words in the sentence three sentences ago. Okay. I'll let you read now.
Raine: Good, they were beginning to get annoyed with all of your ridiculous rambling.
Colette: Giggle snort Ridiculous rambling!
Genis: Why?
Kratos: We should not begin to ask…holds hand up to face
TimesHalt: Don't do that. That's annoying! Well, maybe not to Raine gets slapped ow… okay begin to read now.

"A-A-An Angel?" Sheena stuttered, barely seeing the winged being through her blurred vision. Form what she could see, he was very strong and equipped a very big tipped spear. He also was about 12 feet taller than Zelos, but since the walls in this room were so high and wide, the room didn't collapse.
"Well now, more guests. No matter, I shall avenge Mithos this time!" the angel yelled.
"Pretty polite guy, giving us his name and everything." Zelos said as he unsheathed his sword from its scabbard.
"As we see who's talking…" Sheena mumbled silently.
"Silence! I will not lose to a couple of pathetic humans!" the aloft man screamed.
"Dammit!" Sheena thought to herself, "How am I supposed to fight!"
She then remembered her conversation with Cresenta, 'Isn't there some way to fight while a Summon Spirit is still out!'
'Yes, there is, however, that was long ago, and also, the book on it is probably lost, or gone. Archeological professors are probably the only ones I suspect of having it.'
While recollecting this memory, Sheena felt a spark from within her. The answer on how to keep both Celsius out and let her fight was…
Her answer was interrupted before she figured it out. A flat, silver triangle was inches away from her face. It was the angel's spear.
"What the heck!" Sheena yelled at him, "Leave me alone!" She followed up this command with a slow katana strike, which the angel easily dodged.
"I, Garrochia, will not lose to you!" her enemy yelled.
Sheena ran away from him and began to concentrate interrupted by a loud clinging noise. Zelos had suddenly been unarmed, and Garrochia, seeing his opening, began to cast a spell. Sheena ran up to him, and resorted to throwing a few cards his way. This distracted him, giving Zelos the time to retrieve his blade. Once he did, the angel went straight for him again. But now, however, Zelos was prepared and threw a Whitehot Pyre in Garrochia's direction. Within the time of this, Sheena regained her track of thought, not even noticing Zelos was losing, and that Garrochia was now coming for her, a crimson liquid tipped on his spear. Sheena now saw these things, and the answer came to her.
"If I want to be a good Summoner, then I must know I can do this!" Sheena yelled as her massive foe neared her, "Mistress of ice and snow, may your powers recede my focus, but let it stay intact! I will fight!"
A sudden blue spark appeared next to Sheena, signifying Celsius was till out. Just as the spear it was about to hit Sheena, she flipped away, bounding off her hand and landing near Zelos. She cast Purgatory Seal quickly on him, and then began to cast Curing Seal as well. However this was interrupted, and Sheena was held responsible to distract the angel while Zelos healed himself. The Magic Swordsman took no time to pull out a Miracle Gel, but did not use it on himself. He used it on Sheena, by tossing in her left hand; the one she didn't fight with. The female ninja thanked Zelos quickly as she kept Garrochia's spear at bay. She was now doing well, and the battle seemed to be turning to their side as Zelos healed himself. However, their foe began to cast a spell, the magic circle looking different than the other time. Sheena recognized it as an uninterruptible spell. She ignored it, though and hit Garrochia with her Waterfall Impalement move. Garrochia finished the spell, Asteroid Rain, the more powerful version of Meteor Storm. Gold flames were burned mahogany colored rocks, which hit Sheena and Zelos quite hard. The woman of the group retorted by using a Magic Lens to see how much health her enemy had left. It wasn't much, but he now had put a shield up, impervious to all attacks, it seemed. Sheena let loose some power from her; another new attack, Starswarm. Lavender blades blessed with star element struck the enemy and exploded on impact. The angel disintegrated, and was dead.
"We did it!" Sheena yelled jumping up in the air for joy. The blue sparks twinkled merrily, reflecting Sheena's mood.
"You seem to be a lot more peppy." Zelos stated, "What gives?"
"I mastered how to keep fighting with a Summon Spirit out!" Sheena replied, "But my mana is almost running out…' Zelos to out a Pineapple Gel and gave to Sheena.
"Well, I only have ten left." Zelos said quickly, "We have to not use them a lot."
"Well then let's hurry up!" Sheena said, running to the next room.
Inside was a piece of paper. It read…
"You, whom are trying to gain solar strength, the tests here will bend your mental strength in ways impossible on Earth. I bid you good luck."
These words disappeared and were replaced with…
"When the ones cannot see, the other sense must aid you."
Sheena felt a strange sensation as the room became a jet black. She could not see, but it felt as if her other sense were greatly enhanced.
"Watch out." Zelos commented, "I almost fell in a hole. That must be the secret to this room, to use your other senses to get by.
Sheena listened to his words, and then smelled a faint aroma of smoke. However, it was wafting upward in to the room, so it must have some from below. The female then got the idea of the room, which was if you smelled an aroma coming from below it would be a hole. However, sometimes a smell would come from the left, to distract the person. They used this tactic to get to the next room. It was mostly peaceful, but at one point Sheena almost fell in a hole. She wondered what the other room would be like.
In this room, Sheena and Zelos could actually see, but their sense of smell was cut off, along with their sense of touch. A fire blazed at their feet, but they did not notice. The fire began to grab Sheena's clothes. Zelos' had not yet got enflamed, but they were about to. Once they did, there was a huge red glow throughout the room. Sheena turned around to see her clothes. The flames had reached up to her knees; w could she not have noticed? Zelos, meanwhile, was trying to remember water spells to put the fire out, but he was failing. Sheena immediately cast a Tethe Seal of Water on herself and Zelos. The fire was doused form their clothes but their clothes were ruined. Sheena sighed and made Zelos turn away as she changed in to her suit, one Astra had given her. It was a light purple cloth suit, hard to rip, but very elegant. White stars were spread all across the arms and legs and a huge opal colored star was on the back. Blue streaks also flowed around the five pointed shapes. It was also very fit for fighting, even though it didn't look like it. Zelos suit was gold kimono, with symbols of the spell Photon on it. Shining dots adorned the suit, it gleamed lightly every time he moved. There was also the magic circle of Photon covering the arms. In the center, there was a picture of the spell, with no person casting it, but plain and simply it. Whoever made the suit obviously spent a lot of time on it. Once they had changed, far from the fire, mind you, they went into the next room.
Within this corridor the floor was slightly slanted, and the two people lost all sense of direction, as well. Sheena kept falling over but quickly regained her composure, noticing spikes at the walls of the room, except the some space near the door, so you could get a grip on normality. Zelos and Sheena had to keep rolling whenever they fell ,to avoid the thorns. After much dizziness and slight headaches, they made it through the room.
"Hah…" Sheena sighed, "Oh man…that hurts…"
"Dizzy?" Zelos questioned.
"You think!" Sheena yelled, exasperated.
"Heh." Zelos laughed, "Sorry."
Sheena laughed it off and looked at the room before her. It was weird all senses were intact, so those trials must be over. Until a court landed in the room. A banner read "The Trial of Future Events Of The Mind of Sheena Fujibayashi" (A/N: The sign is supposed to be this way. This trial will not happen in the sequel, it's just a foreshadowing I'm trying out."
"You drove him to it you know." the judge said.
"You said you hated him, and you probably did, giving him this death" the King of Tethe'alla said.
"I didn't!" Sheena heard herself yell. Strangely she was watching herself do things from a first person view.
"You are an evil person. Sheena Fujibayashi, you should feel this pain. It is all your fault." the judge said.
"Court is adjourned!"
Sheena was pulled from her mental state, seeing an entranced Zelos coming after her. She dodged a sword swipe, and was trying to get him back to reality, but it was not working. She also noticed a katana cut on his right arm, from her, perhaps? Sheena then saw a cut on her leg, from Zelos. What had Sheena done while entranced? Zelos had a weird look on his face, as if recalling a memory…
"You, Zelos wilder are inscribed to be the Chosen. This day as meant to be. You will rule Tethe'alla on day."
This wasn't in the past, but rather an event going on in Zelos' mind. He was not paying attention to reality, but he was entranced in his own mind.
"You have no other choice. Accept this blessing."
People agreed to this all around the young red haired boy.
Sheena kept parrying his attacks until she could take no longer.
"Stop it!" Sheena yelled, slapping Zelos. He looked at her for a minute, but continued to stay in his trance.
A sudden memory came to Sheena. At the Magic Laboratory at Sybak, she remembered reading a book that said a kiss could break magic effects. Well, she had no choice Zelos could have killed her. So she leant up to him and…
She kissed him.
She embraced him, her arms fitting in a position that seemed just right. Zelos just stood there, stunned. He then subconsciously kissed her back, the spell weakening. The spell broke, a few blue sparks flying every which way. Zelos found himself kissing Sheena, and he began to kiss back. Sheena then realized that glassy look was gone from his eyes, and she pushed away.
A?N; Oh my…well, I'll leave you with this to let the next chapter being anticipated.
