Vokteren: This is going to be my second fanfic. Considering that my first
got only one review I'm going to only update this if I get enough reviews.
Pikachu: As if. You are going to update no matter how many review's you get.
Vokteren: Both are half truths. Depending on how many review's I get the time I wait before releasing a new chapter may be long or short. By the way, can you do me a favor?
Pikachu: Sure. What is it?
Vokteren: First can you do a disclaimer?
Pikachu: A "disclaimer"?
Vokteren: A disclaimer says that you do not make any claims on something you use in your fanfic. This time disclaim Pokemon and Golden Sun.
Pikachu: Okay, I'll do it. "Vokteren does not own pokemon nor does he own Golden Sun." Anything else?
Vokteren: Yes. Find out what "cliffhanger" means.
Pikachu: Sure. (Pikachu runs off to find out what "cliffhanger" means.)
Vokteren: Now on with the story.
Mia sat with her bare feet in the cold stream. Her kind face that usually holds a secret and mysterious smile had grown into worry. Her water blue hair was standing all over her head and she was breathing heavily. She was holding gold like staff with a blue crystal on the top. On her head was a beautiful clear circlet. On her left arm she had an armlet in the same color as the circlet.
Anyone who saw her from a distance would think she was an angel. If you looked on her face you would see that she sat in deep thoughts. She was reflecting over what had happened when she got separated from the rest of the group.
(Flashback) They had decided to call it a day and were settling down. They had made a fire and it was warming them as well as holding the monsters away from them.
Ivan had gone early to bed and Garet followed soon after. Isaac and Mia sat and talked about everything between earth and heaven as usual. She had taken a look towards Ivan to check on him when she saw two emerald eyes glowing in the darkness.
They disappeared as quickly as they came but it was enough to get her on the guard.
"Isaac, I think I saw something behind the trees where Ivan sleeps." Mia was shivering from fear and you could hear it on her voice.
However Isaac was his usual "there must be a natural explanation to this" self. "What are you saying? You know that all monsters we have met until now have all fled as soon as Garet lighted a fire."
"I know that pretty well but I am sure I saw something there"
Suddenly they heard something in the bushes. It was closer this time.
"I think I should wake Garet and Ivan." proclaimed Mia in an anxious voice.
"I'll help you. It is clearly evident that there is someone or something in those bushes."
They woke Garet and Ivan and told them what they saw.
"If there is something out there waiting to attack us they are going to get a serious surprise." Garet said with a voice that overflowed of confidence.
"If we get away from each other we should get a meeting point. It is very dark and if we are attacked by a superior foe we can be forced to flee and that would make it easy to get away from each other."
"That is a good idea but where should we meet?" Isaac sounded a bit worried but Garet quickly came with an answer.
"We should meet at Mikasalla as it is the closest town and we shouldn't wander too far alone."
"I agree with Garet. Although Mikasalla is small it is our best chance to get away from whoever is out there." Although Mia tried to sound brave everyone could hear that she was worried of what it was.
Suddenly they heard a branch being broken and they could see that this someone was getting dangerously close.
All of them unsheathed their weapons and equipped their defensive gear. Mia was standing behind all of them wearing a feathered robe on her body. Her pure circlet shone on her head and she had put the clear bracelet on her left arm and was holding it in a defensive position. She held her crystal rod steady in her hand and was ready to face whatever that would come out of the dark.
She saw that Isaac held the Gaia Blade in his hands, Garet held the Silver Blade and were ready to defend himself and his friends the best he could. Ivan held his Kikuichimonji, the blade shone with a bright white light and his hands were purple with the Jupiter psynergy that flowed through them.
Suddenly their foe appeared but what they saw gave them a shock. It wasn't a foe but foes and there were not three but ten monsters that dashed towards them.
What was even stranger was that the enemies consisted only of Dinoes and they were fighting strategically. Instead of running straight toward their prey, they divided into two attack parties, one attacking from the left and the other from the right.
Isaac unleashed Flint on the one leading the left attack party, but the Dino were quicker and dodged it and got on the other side of him ready to counter Isaac's next move.
Ivan saw this and cast spark plasma on the Dinoes in front of Isaac so that Isaac wasn't vulnerable from one side. Meanwhile Garet and Mia were fighting the right attack party.
Garet's Silver Blade glowed and when he struck one of the Dinoes a fountain of water materialized under the Dino's feet and threw him backwards. Mia glowed with a blue light for a second and cast an ice missile on the Dinoes.
Mia and Ivan smiled when they saw that their attacks landed dead on, but their faces turned from smile to shock. Even after such a beating the Dinoes looked like they never had been hit by the psynergy.
"We are in trouble." Shouted Garet, his face was unusually pale.
"Mia, Ivan." Isaac shouted as high as he could. "I want you two to take the Mars Star and run to Mikasalla."
"But."
"No, but. You must hurry. You must protect the Mars Star. If I and Garet can get away from these monsters then we'll meet at Mikasalla, if not then you have to take care of each other."
"But we can't just"
"You can and you will. I'm not asking you, I'm ordering you."
"Okay. Come Ivan, we must hurry." Mia said trying to sound strong but everyone could hear that she didn't want to leave Isaac and Garet here.
Ivan grabbed the Mythrill bag containing the Mars Star and they both ran into the dark forest.
Before they got entirely out of sight range Mia turned and saw Garet and Isaac trying to hold back nine Dinoes. Wait a minute, nine Dinoes? Where was the last one? As if on a request by herself she heard Ivan shout
"Mia, Look behind you."
Mia turned around and held up her armlet with seconds to spare.
Two gleaming white fangs bit straight into her armlet. She saw the Dino straight in his eyes and swung her crystal rod straight into the side of the monster.
The Dino released the grip enough for Mia to get free and start running. She could not reach Ivan and she couldn't return to Isaac so she were forced to run away from Ivan if she could have any hope of outrunning this nightmare.
She heard by the sound of branches breaking that the beast was straight behind her.
She could not try to fight it as she was the least skilled fighter of the entire group and in order to cast psynergy she would have to turn around and slow down, and judging from the sound she would be Dino dinner if she tried that.
Suddenly the crystal on her crystal rod started to shine blue and when that happened she knew that it was about to unleash it's magical drown psynergy.
She waited to the last possible moment before she turned around and pointed the crystal towards the monster. Blue bubbles shot out from the crystal and enveloped the Dino, strangling it by removing all oxygen around it.
Right before the Dino was about to give up however the bubbles disappeared and left the Dino choking for air.
Mia took the chance and called forth Mist the Djinni. Mist materialized into the crystal rod and made it crash down on the Dino. Upon impact the Djinni tried to lull the Dino to sleep and by was able to do so by a tiny margin.
Mia picked up the Djinni and ran as fast as she could. She knew that by the time the Dino woke up she would be far away.
(End of Flashback) She had gone through this scenario many times and there was always something that was wrong.
First of all why weren't they scared of the fire, second, why did they attack so strategically and third, why did the Dino go after her instead of Ivan?
She knew that although he was better at fighting he was still younger and wouldn't endure as much as her.
She thought about it, she didn't want to but she knew she had to. She hoped they were all alright.
She missed them. Isaac with his golden hair, deep blue eyes, gentle personality and great logical sense. He always had a solution for everything.
Garet with his wild red hair, honest eyes, caring personality and funny nature. He was always the best cure for unhappiness.
Ivan with his mysterious purple eyes, blonde hair, cute face and wise personality. He was a great help for anything just by being close.
When she thought about Ivan she started to cry and thought for herself.
¤I'm sorry Isaac. I was supposed to take care of Ivan and instead I flee as quickly as I can. How could I do something like that? If I ever come back to Imil how can I be sure that I won't do it again if Megan or Justin needs my help just like Ivan did?¤
She sat there sobbing when she suddenly realized what that had been wrong the whole time.
The Dinoes were only after her. She remembered that Isaac was at their mercy when he missed with Flint. If they all had attacked at the same time Isaac would definitely be dead. Instead they all stared towards her as if they knew something about her that they thought could be useful for them. But now the question was why did they want her?
¤Oh well.¤
She thought to herself.
¤It is no use to believe them dead. After all they could have escaped, but how can I face them after what I've done?¤
She decided that it just had to be that time that sorrow. Now she would let her Djinn out to play. She raised her arms and felt the Djinn leave her body and materialize on the ground.
The Djinn were extremely happy to be let out and started to play cheerfully. Mia almost felt like joining them in their game when she saw it. The bush on the other side of the river moved.
She had crossed this river last night to make sure the Dino couldn't follow her but if it came already she would be in grave danger. Suddenly a strange creature came out of the bushes. Mia's face grew from fear to...
Vokteren: This is what they call a "cliffhanger" right?
Pikachu: Well, according to this book that is right.
Vokteren: Good. Can you do a quick reading of this story? And what is the name of that book anyway?
Pikachu: Sure. Hmm well err. The title isn't right. There isn't any "Lifechildren" in this story or what you called them. There is only Mia and the others. The name of the book is "Strange words in English that you can encounter on the net and that still needs an explanation."
Vokteren: There is no Lifechildren YET, but believe me they will appear. I do however need three pokemon for the story. Perhaps the reviewers have any ideas. Oh, and can you find other words in it to explain? On fanfiction.net I've found some words that all end on this word "shipping". Can you find out what that means?
Pikachu: Sure. Oh, before I forget. We would be very grateful if you reviewed this fanfic after reading it. See you next time.
Pikachu: As if. You are going to update no matter how many review's you get.
Vokteren: Both are half truths. Depending on how many review's I get the time I wait before releasing a new chapter may be long or short. By the way, can you do me a favor?
