Unmei: Sorry it's taken me so long to get this chapter up! I've decided that from now on that I'll only update once I get at least five reviews for each new chapter. Well, now for the disclaimer….wait who haven't I done? Err…
Piers: ME! Ahem, Unmei no Hana doesn't own the game Golden Sun or Golden Sun: TLA or the characters, but she does own this twisted plot.
Unmei: Gee thanks. I've pretty much decided on the pairings. There will be times when another pairing comes in, but that's just to make the story more interesting. Oh, and seeing how I really didn't get any reviews about my little Sheba Felix thingy in the last chapter, I've decided that there probably won't be any more. And to think I put it in for all those ppl who said they wanted some and the only review I got was from a windshipper, hmphf, hmphf. I think this chapter's kinda…odd, but bear with me! I think I made it too mushy ;. So if you don't like romance, you'd better skip the middle-end portion of this chapter…hehehe. Hope you enjoy the chapter

Chapter 10: Love Lost, Found and Lost Again
Unmei no Hana
Heart-broken, betrayed, used, hurt, and miserable. These were just some of the feelings that Jenna felt as she ran from the dining hall. Heart-broken at the fact that Isaac loved Mia, betrayed that Mia had loved Isaac all along, used by Isaac for all this time believing that he loved her, hurt by the fact that Isaac never once noticed her, never once looked at her as anything more than a friend, a sister, and miserable because there was no one who loved her the way she loved them.
Stumbling, tripping, Jenna made her way into old room without caring about what she ran into to. Her vision was blurry from her with held tears and she often had to feel her way through the halls, but finally she saw the familiar sight of the door in which her room laid behind. When she got there, she flung herself onto the bed, not caring to close the door. Though the softness of the pillows soothed her, nothing could get rid her broken heart. She cried her heart out. Without her knowing, Ivan silently slipped in. When he saw her sobbing so hard, he felt stunned. What happened to the strong Jenna that he—that everyone—once knew? Coming up behind her, he put a comforting hand on her shoulder. In her surprise, she jumped up, and then whipped around to see who had pursued her. When she saw it was Ivan she softened.
"O…oh. It's you Ivan."
Sweat-dropping about that comment, Ivan cleared his throat, and tried to think about what to say.
'Oh, great! What am I supposed to say? Sheba would really come in handy right about now, but she's not here… Oh yeah, hehehe, why didn't I think about mind-talking with her?'
"Sheba! Hey Sheba! I need your help. Jenna's crying her heart out and I have no clue as to what to say to her." Ivan waited a moment, but no reply came back. Frustrated, he tried again, but once again there was no reply.
'Jeez, what's Felix doing to her? Boy, if puts any moves onto her…I'll…I'll' But Ivan wasn't able to finish his threat because suddenly Jenna threw her arms around the boy and buried her face into his shoulder and continued to cry her heart out. Ivan staggered back at the sudden weight. He could feel her tears soaking through his shirt. Blushing at how close they were Ivan started to rub her back awkwardly. He had remembered that Master Hammat had done it when Lady Illaine (a/n is that her name…I kinda forgot ;) was distressed. They stood like that as Ivan wondered when Sheba would show up.
Taking in her beauty for a moment, Felix brought his lips to hers, and kissed her with all the passion he had kept secret for so long. Sheba felt stunned, but after a moment, she felt herself melt into the kiss, and start to kiss Felix back with the same amount of passion. When he realized that Sheba accepted his kiss, Felix wound his arms around her waist and she in turn snaked her arms around his neck. They stayed like that for a moment before Sheba heard a voice in her head.
"Sheba! Hey Sheba! I need your help. Jenna's crying her heart out and I have no clue as to what to say to her."
Opening her eyes wide in shock, Sheba realized what she was doing. Finally coming to her senses, Sheba abruptly pushed Felix away from her. She staggered to a wall, trying to catch her breath—blushing like crazy. Looking up, she saw confusion in Felix's eyes.
"F…Felix. I'm so sorry. But I can't do this. I just can't. I said I cared about you, but in the way that you're like an older brother. You're like the older brother I never had—or that I never knew. I'm so sorry, but there's someone else I love…someone else who's stolen my heart."
"I-It's Ivan isn't it." Sheba winced at the sharp tone in Felix's voice. It hurt her to break his heart after knowing for so long that he had feelings for her. Trying to avoid eye contact in order to not see the hurt and betrayal that she knew they held, she tried to ignore the nagging voice inside of her head.
'Do I really love Ivan? After all that Felix and I've been through, I still chose Ivan? Felix…he saved me. And yet, my heart yearns to be with Ivan…Ivan.'
"I'm…I'm sorry Felix."
"I should've known. I'm sorry that I actually believed that you could love me back." With those words Felix sharply turned and headed off. Sheba crumpled to the ground and cried.
"Mia. Like I said before, I have always loved you. And I always will." With that being said, he slowly brought his mouth down upon hers. Mia's eyes opened wide, before she melted into the kiss. She put her arms around Garet's neck as he snaked his around her waist. In their passionate kiss, they forgot that Isaac was still there, watching them in silence. His brain raced with different emotions as he watched the scene before him. Suddenly, the spell cracked.
Isaac's brain felt like it was being ripped out and like all the bones in his body were splitting. Since Isaac had been under the spell for so long, the pain just worsened. His screams of pain sent a wave of shock throughout the whole boat. Everyone stopped what they were doing and raced towards the source of all the pain.
Mia and Garet stopped kissing and looked at Isaac with fear of what was happening to him.
Sheba stopped her crying and stared, her eyes going wide with shock. She crawled her way to the dining hall—unable to pick herself up.
Felix forgot his hurt and pain and he raced towards the source of the sound. His hand was gripped on his sword.
Piers dropped the plate of food he had prepared as he saw Isaac kneeling on the floor in pain.
Ivan stopped rubbing Jenna's back and he grabbed her hand, racing to Isaac.
And Jenna just let herself be dragged. Only she had not stopped what she had been doing. Tears streamed down her face as she stumbled after Ivan.
Everyone arrived at the dining hall and stared at Isaac. Afraid to go to close to him, they just watched him. Finally Jenna reluctantly turned her head to see what was going on. When she saw Isaac screaming in pain, all her thoughts of misery and hurt vanished and were replaced with concern and worry. She started making her way towards Isaac. Felix tried to hold her back, but she broke from his grip and rushed to Isaac.
"I-Isaac. It's me—Jenna. Can you hear me? Don't worry you're gonna be alright. Don't worry." She tried to hold back the tears that were threatening to fall. But as much as she tried, she couldn't help it. Soon her crystalline tears were pouring down her face.
"Isaac…. Even if you can't hear me I want to tell you something. I know that you love Mia…and I can't do anything about it. But even so, Isaac, I-I love you." Jenna hugged him, but when he didn't respond she sighed and stood up. She quickly turned and started to walk away, trying to hide the tears that she tried so strongly to hold back.
"J-Jen…na." The whole group froze and turned to look at Isaac. "J-Jen…na. Please don't leave me. I love you." With those words, Jenna bounded over towards Isaac and hugged him tight.
"You don't know how long I've been waiting to hear those words… but I'm glad I waited this long."
Isaac could feel Jenna's tears soaking into his shirt. He gently lifted up her chin and stared into her soft brown eyes. The tears shone like diamonds and he gently brought his mouth down towards hers. Jenna's eyes widened in shock (a/n hehehe, seems like all the girls eyes widen in shock ) before realized what was happening, and returned his kiss.
All around them, heir friends were smiling, knowing that they were the perfect pair for one another. It was like a dream—everything seemed perfect, but that dream had to end. Just as Isaac and Jenna were pulling apart, a bloodcurdling cry erupted from the air followed by a scream. Sol crashed through the ceiling of the ship landing right in front of everybody. His blue eyes had turned an angry, malicious dark blue colored. He stalked towards Jenna but Isaac jumped in front of her, blocking Sol. In his eyes, flames of anger were erupting.
"You'll go no farther if you know what's best for you. Just leave us be and." But before Isaac could finish his sentence, Sol conjured a ball of magic and blasted Isaac away. Everyone else backed away in terror as Sol advanced towards Jenna.
"If you know what's best for you, then all of you will come to the Starlight Point or else she dies." With those words he snatched up Jenna and teleported away. Isaac lay against the wall, too weak to move, and too heart-broken to do anything. To him this seemed like déjà vu for once again, Jenna had been taken from his life.
Far away in the distance, in a small temple in a cave of a huge mountain, something was happening. A woman with long, honey colored eyes and bluish-purple eyes was watching the whole scene from a mirror. She spoke some words and smiled evilly.
"Yes, son of Venus. Grow angrier and break your alliance with the sun. For the angrier you get, the closer I am to getting my vengeance."
Unmei: I'm soooo sorry! I know it's been more than a month since I've updated, but I had this HUGE author's block. I'll try to update more often, but with so much schoolwork, the earliest I can probably update is once a month or so. So, I'm not giving up on this story or anything, just taking me a while to write it.
Oh yeah, I need to thank all my reviewers:
Spirit Seeker: Thank you so much for reviewing constantly! It's a huge help. Oh, and Lord Talbi is supposed to be Lord Talbi, not Tolbi. I did this on purpose because I couldn't think of an original name, but didn't want to steal any names either, so I just modified them. Like "Elav" is "Vale" just backwards. "Talbi" is "Tolbi" with an A, and "Amant"…err… Amant was something. Kinda forgot . Anyways, thanks for all the positive feedback.
Ivan is my name: I put the windshipping, well sorta windshipping, back 'specially for you. Hope you like it!
Shy-Lil-Dreamer: Thanx for the comment! I'm so glad you like my story.
Alyss: Awwww, poor lil random person. Well, I'm happy you like all my chapters…I think some of them aren't very good….
