Thanks to a lot of confusion. I will declare the ages of the characters for this fanfic.

Raine-17
Genis-6
Lloyd-9
Colette-8

I do not plan to change these ages (unless a year has passed or what not).

Thank you RoyalFanatic, StrawberryEggs, and Lilikoifish for still reviewing.
Sorry that I don't really make these chapters long. It makes more sense if I divide it that way, resulting short chapters. Plus, I won't be able to update as often.

Disclaimer Time!
This chapter's lucky disclaimer guests are...Sheena and Zelos!

Sheena: is there another chapter which I could be the disclaimer guest, I don't want to do a disclaimer with him.

Zelos: So how is my beautiful hunny doin?

Me:Hits Zelo's head: Sorry Sheena, I couldn't get anyone else and Zelos wouldn't do it without you. Just say the Disclaimer to get this over with.

Sheena: Eastercat does not own anything that is related to Tales of Symphonia. Now can I go home.

Me: yes

Zelos: Why do you want to leave? the party just started. :Puts arm around Sheena's shoulder:

Sheena:Hits Zelos in the stomach:

Zelos: The banshee strikes again. x-x

Sheena: :Goes away in a puff of smoke:

Raine let out all the children to the playground. As she went back into the classroom a parent started to pin her with questions. "Do you have a degree of being a teacher? You're pretty young to be teaching." Asked a blacked haired mom.

"Well, I may only be seventeen…."

"You're only seventeen!" The same mom interrupted.

Raine didn't like getting interrupted. "Sigh…Yes I am only seventeen. Don't worry though. I talked to the Mayor and told him I needed a job. He made me take some tests and I was smart enough to get a job as a teacher."

The mom still didn't like it that a teenager, especially an elven one, was teaching at the school.

Out on the playground…

Genis felt left out. No one would want to be friends with a 6 year old. He walked over to the sand box to play in it. 'What should I make?' Genis wondered. 'Maybe a big hole.'

Genis started to dig. The hole was about a foot deep, when a voice stopped him. "What are you doing in our sand box?"

Genis looked up to see a 9-year-old girl with highlighted black hair. Her name was Sophia. Behind her were her friends. "What are you doing in our sand box, you little 6-year-old?" She repeated.

She obviously thought she was the boss. Genis didn't want to get bossed around by this idiot. "This sand box is for everyone. Who says that it's only for you and your friends?"

"I do, now get out!"

Sophia pushed Genis. "Get out!"

"No"

Another push to Genis.

-----------------------------

Lloyd hid behind a tree. Colette was right there talking with Jake. Lloyd felt so shy around Colette. 'How come you don't talk to her?' A voice in his head questioned.

"I get so shy around her."

'She knows nothing about you. You should talk to her if you like her.'

Lloyd sighed and slowly walked up to Colette, luckily Jake went somewhere else. Colette said, "Hi Lloyd. Isn't school fun?"

"Yeah…Colette….I think you're…pretty."

'What did I just do?' He thought as he blushed.

Colette smiled, "Thank you, Lloyd. That was really nice of you."

She gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, as Lloyd blushed even redder.

From the sandbox there was yelling, "Let's go see what's happening." Said Colette as she grabbed Lloyd's hand and took him to the sand box.

'She touched my hand.' Lloyd thought dreamily.

Around the sandbox there was a commotion. Genis was on the ground getting kicked by Sophia and her friends. Other kids were cheering about the fight. Sophia kicked Genis again. "That will teach you to never mess with me."

"Stop it!" Colette yelled.

Sophia and her friends ignored the Chosen. Colette put her head in to her hands. She couldn't stand the sight. Lloyd didn't like the sight either. He grabbed a long, thick, stick nearby. Sophia was about to kick Genis again, when Lloyd got between the foot and the target and blocked the kick with the stick. "Didn't you hear Colette? You should stop."

Colette dragged Genis out of harm; Sophia was surprised that someone stopped her. Lloyd walked away with all the kids staring behind him. Colette was by the tree. Genis was sitting down. He was bruised all over. Colette asked with worry in her voice. "Are you ok?"

Genis was too weak to say anything. A bell rang, signaling the end of recess. "C'mon you guys!" Professor Sage's voice came from the school window. "Time to go in."

Lloyd ran in a told Raine what happened. Raine gasped in surprise and ran out to check on her brother. "It's a good thing that it's just bruising." She said. "I can fix that."

She ran into the schoolhouse and came out with her rod. "First Aid!"

A glow surrounded Genis. All the purple bruises faded away. When the glowing stopped, Genis was fully healed. Genis was able to talk. "Thanks, sis."

Lloyd was surprised, "The professor is your sister?"

Colette giggled. "You didn't know?"

Lloyd blushed in embarrassment, as Raine led them back in to the classroom. Lloyd sat next to Colette and Genis. They knew, from that moment on, they were friends.

Zelos:Puts arm around me: So how are you doin my cute beauty?

Me: Ahhhh! the Perv is touching me!

Lilly:knocksZelos out with a frying pan: Review please.
