Pikachu: "We don't own Golden Sun or Pokemon"
"Speech" ¤Thought¤ [Telepathy] (A/N: Author Note) (P/N: Pika Note)
It was a bright and sunny day. Yesterday there had been a torrent of rain and now the world seemed greener and more alive in the rushing wind that blew through the trees and along the grass covered ground. Flowers grew beautifully on the open fields and the trees provided a gentle shelter against the bright rays of the sun.
Nearby eight characters worked on an impressive boat. The boat had a high tower in the middle and looked overall sturdy. A young boy and a girl with blue hair picked berries that were growing on plants nearby. A pink cat played with a brown fox and a red chicken. Two boys, one with orange hair and one with red hair that stood straight up, Carried their baggage onto the ship. The final character was a yellow mouse that stood on the top of the tower on the ship. She was placed there so she could keep a look out for Jenna and her group.
"Can you tell me again why you want us to sail to Madra, Isaac?" Ivan asked.
"Because if Jenna has a ship we must follow her by sea and the Madrans may know if she has one" Isaac answered.
"I still don't get why Jenna keeps avoiding us" Garet said.
[We won't get an answer to that before we meet her and we don't know when that may be] Pikachu said.
"At least we know that they are heading for Jupiter lighthouse first. We have the Mars star so they have to face us before they can light Mars lighthouse" Mia said.
[Are we gonna set sail soon?] Eevee said. [I can't wait to travel with a ship. It looks so fun]
"Sometimes it is fun, but it isn't fun when we sail into a storm" Mia said.
"It was a bit scary when we got caught in that tidal wave. That wave knocked our boat from the eastern sea and into the western sea" Ivan told the four pokemon.
"Still that was just pure luck. Jupiter lighthouse lies in the western sea so if Jenna has a ship we can just head to Jupiter lighthouse and wait for her there" Garet said.
[Why don't you just head over there right away?] Torchic asked
"Because it would be better if we could catch up with her before she reached Jupiter lighthouse" Isaac answered.
"Can't we continue this discussion after we have visited Madra?" Mia asked.
"OK Mia. Get onboard everyone, we leave immediately" Isaac said, trying to sound like a captain of some great galleon.
The others boarded and they sailed, or rather floated, towards Madra. When they arrived at the shore nearest Madra there was a great commotion of people who came and admired the boat they sailed in. When they got on land they were greeted by a man who looked about twenty years old. This young man was the mayor of Madra.
The pokemon stayed behind in the ship. Someone had to keep an eye on it so close to a town. When the others arrived at Madra the mayor asked them about almost anything you can think of, but the towns elder put him to halt.
"You must give these travelers a little break son" the old man said.
"But they came in a ship that looked exactly like Piers' ship" the mayor replied.
"Did you say that someone else have visited this village? And that this person has a ship just like ours?" Isaac asked.
"Yes, he was falsely imprisoned for the pirate Briggs crimes" the mayor answered. "We can continue this conversation in my house"
At the mayor's home Ivan and friends told about how they had met each other, about how they had chased Saturos and Menardi to Imil and then across Angara to Gondowan and Venus lighthouse, how they had defeated Saturos and Menardi atop the lighthouse and how they had seen Sheba and Felix jump down from the lighthouse and how they now where searching for Jenna and Kraden.
After that the mayor told about how they first had met Jenna, Sheba, Kraden and Felix when they saved them from dehydration in Yampi desert, how they had captured Briggs and his men, how they had helped with Madra's new ship and that they were following Piers into Gondowan.
After they had talked they answered questions neither Piers nor Jenna and her friends had time to tell. They demonstrated psynergy for the Madras and before they left Mia tried to give away her frost jewel, but was persuaded to keep it. When they got back on their ship the pokemon told them that they had seen someone that looked just like Sheba in the cliffs.
"Are you sure it was Sheba?" Isaac asked
[At least she was very similar, she had white and purple clothes and blond hair] Eevee said.
"It must have been Sheba. I can't think of any other fourteen year old girl that would climb these cliffs" Ivan resonated.
"We should sail to Gondowan then" Isaac said.
Mia used the black orb to direct their ship west towards Gondowan, but they hadn't sailed for long when a storm came from east, west and south, forcing them towards the Gondowan cliffs. When they entered the cliffs they found that there was no way they could escape. To the north were reefs and to the south was a storm. When the storm catched up with them it pushed them towards the reefs.
"We are trapped" Garet shouted. "There is no way we can get through this storm and we can't head north"
"Don't worry Garet, I have an idea" Ivan said. "I can channel the storm so it can get us over the reefs but that traps us in the eastern sea so now you have to make a choice Isaac. Should we fight the storm and stay or should we let it carry us to the eastern sea?"
Isaac hesitated a second before answering "Let's go to the eastern sea. It would be foolish of us to stay here"
Just when Isaac had finished that the storm came. The wind howled and the rain felt like small whips across their face. Ivan stood at the top of the ship and focused all of his psynergy onto a powerful wind that would lift the ship over the reefs and onto the other side. He was able to do it, but the wind blew him of the ships top and he landed hard on the deck. Before he blacked out he was barely able to hear a cry for help.
(Ivan's mind) ¤Dark, it's so dark. Where am I? I remember that I was on the ship so where am I now? Could Mia and the others have carried me here? Why can't I hear anything? It can't be this quiet, it is never this quiet¤
Ivan struggled to his feet and looked around. He couldn't see anything and he couldn't hear anything. He shouted but didn't get any response. Suddenly he saw a girl with yellow skin and an aura that gleamed in seven different colors. He could barely hear that she was chanting a slow and sad tone.
"Hey you, over there" Ivan shouted at the girl.
She stopped and turned towards him with a smile. Suddenly she started laughing and ran in the opposite direction of Ivan. He followed after and saw that she ran towards three other persons. They were standing in a bright area in this everlasting darkness. When he got close he could see the four persons facing him. He looked over them from left to right.
First he saw a boy with white skin and black hair. He had coal black eyes and held a white staff with a black orb placed on top. He wore black clothes except for a white circlet with black opals in it and a snake on the front. He saw that a black matter flowed around him but he didn't seem to bother. He had a warm and welcoming smile.
Second was the yellow girl. She saw that her hair was in many different colors, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet although he couldn't specific any true color as they seemed to change all the time. She wore a lime green long skirt and lemon yellow socks. She had a red sweater and a violet headband. Her shoes were orange and she had a blue and an indigo armband on each hand. She seemed as if she laughed at him of something but he couldn't be totally sure.
The third one was a girl with reddish skin and long black hair. She wore clothes made out of silk, guessed Ivan. The clothes were wrapped gently around her arms and legs and were firm around her body. She was barefoot and held something that looked like a mini figure of Ivan although it also looked like a music note. Whoever had made it hadn't been careful. Her eyes were ruby red and she looked like she had a hard time not opening her mouth.
The last one was a boy with brown skin and short black hair. He was dressed in a white t-shirt with a picture of the elemental stars and long green shorts. He held a staff twice his length and had a gold circlet decorated with pictures of Djinn on his head. He had a smile that was something between surprise and satisfaction. Ivan was sure that he had seen him somewhere before.
They talked together but Ivan couldn't hear what they talked about. He tried to get their attention in any way he could. He talked, he shouted and he used spark plasma but nothing seemed to work. Finally they stopped talking and they turned towards him. The two boys nodded at the girls before they again shifted their attention to Ivan.
"Finally" Ivan said. "Can you guys please tell me where I am and why I am here?"
The boys completely ignored Ivan and instead started to glow slightly. The pale looking boy held out his hand and black matter formed inside there. He threw the black matter directly at Ivan but instead of hitting him it landed on the floor with a soft bump. The black matter spread out and completely covered the pale boy before it just disappeared. The black boy just jumped high up before disappearing.
Now Ivan was left with the two girls who discussed about something. This time Ivan was able to hear colorful and musical. Finally it seemed as if they had come to an agreement. They snapped their fingers and a moment later Ivan could hear music playing in the background, another snap and he stood on a rainbow, yet another snap and he could see stars raining down from yellow and green clouds. Now, Ivan was sure he had gone insane.
The girls now faced him. The yellow colored girl smiled at him before he saw a rainbow blow around her and the next moment she was gone. The red girl opened her mouth and now Ivan could hear that she was singing. She seemed to dance a little before she just vanished. The world around Ivan started to become blurred. He heard a female voice shout and then. (End Ivan's Mind)
"Ivan, wake up. You're having a nightmare" Mia looked worriedly on the young boy who finally opened his eyes.
"Where am I?" Ivan asked.
[You are on the ship, remember. You got knocked out could when you fell down from the tower during the storm] said the little fox named Eevee.
"Oh, okay" Ivan said. "Where are the others?"
[They headed towards Kibombo and search for Piers there]
"They are coming back now and judging by their looks it didn't work out to well" Mia said.
Mia was right. Isaac came aboard and just told them that they were heading for Piers ship, immediately. When Ivan tried to ask him about what had happened he just gave him a poisonous look. When they were almost there Garet entered Isaac's cabin.
"We are there soon" Garet said.
"Good" Isaac replied. "I hope we get there before they leave"
"Isaac, why were you so angry at Ivan? He didn't do anything" Garet said
"Garet, can you close the door please?" Garet obeyed and sat on the bed with Isaac.
"Is something bothering you?" Garet asked.
"Garet, what I'm about to tell now must no one else get to know. I only tell you this because you are my best friend. Ok?" Garet nodded and Isaac continued "I wasn't angry at him it is just that now we were so close to catch up with her and then I let her wash away again"
"You love Jenna, that's why you are putting yourself through this. Am I right or am I right?" Garet said
"You are perfectly right Garet. I am just so worried about her and I let my frustration of losing her go on Ivan because he was the closest one" Isaac said.
"I understand your problem but you can't just sit here and pity yourself. Ivan isn't too happy. You made him feel guilty and he has been down since we left Gondowan. I think you should apologize" Garet said.
Isaac understood and moved towards the door when it smashed open. Mia stood there red in her face with anger.
"Garet, how could you leave the steering to Ivan? You know he isn't strong enough to keep a steady course and now we have lost sight of Piers ship" Mia said while gasping for breath
Garet became redder than his hair and rushed up on the deck with Mia and Isaac in tow. He was barely able to see Piers ship sail in the horizon when he saw Ivan coming to him.
"I'm sorry that I couldn't keep a steady course but I know where they are headed" Ivan said.
"Where?" Isaac and Garet asked.
They are headed for...
