Okay everyone, there are only two chapters left. To my one reviewer I will be putting up a description of Storm on my profile page. It's also on one of my replies in the first story but that's too hard to find. I'll move it to my profile page for easy access. Sorry about that. I was thinking of writing a humor fic about Storm and Zelos and their lives outside battling. Of course, I don't think I'm capable of writing something humorous. I am going to attempt but I have a feeling that it will be full of angst and action anyway. Well, here's the next chappie.

Chapter 13: True Love

Storm walked into the remains of the Tower of Salvation. She stared at the broken walls and dusty floors of the once magnificent building. She tried to picture what it may have looked like in the past. Kratos and her had rushed through here on their way to Derris Kharlan. She was sure that there would be some sort of memory waiting here for her. She looked down at her feet as she let out a long sigh of disappointment. She had been so sure of her feeling and she was a little upset that nothing was coming to her.

Suddenly, she felt two arms wrap delicately around her waist. Before, she would have freaked from the touch, but there was something different about it. There was something familiar about it. She felt the person who was holding her pull her closer to them. She could feel the heat of their body and she finally felt safe and comforted. There was something about this person and she was going to find out what it was.

She spun around and found a tall red-head looking at her. He had beautiful blue eyes that looked down at her with love and concern. She stared back at him, trying to figure out how she knew him.

"Storm," he finally managed to say.

Storm managed to free herself from his embrace as she looked back at him. She shook her head and stared back at the floor. She wanted so badly to remember something, it was tearing her apart. She finally crossed her arms and looked back up at him.

"Look, I really don't know who you are," Storm told him.

"You can't feel that? You can't feel our connection?" Zelos questioned her as he took a step towards her.

"I can feel something, but I'm not sure what it is or what it means," Storm admitted.

"Just think hard, you'll remember," Zelos assured her.

"That's just it," Storm began. "I've been trying all this time to remember, I don't think I can search any harder in my mind. There's nothing there. So far, I only know about my father. Of course, I thought I knew who Forcystus was too, but that didn't go like I thought it would. I just...I just wish I could remember something. I want so badly to remember. I'm getting tired of all of this, I want to know who I am, who you are, what happened to me, and what I'm expected to do with this life of mine. Why can't I just...," as she let out all of her frustration, Zelos moved in closer and suddenly cut her off as he connected his lips to her. Storm melted in his kiss, his touch. If there was one thing that she was able to remember, it was that he felt so right.

It was as if that one kiss contained her entire past, present, and future. It was as if her memory had been hiding in him all this time. The two finally parted and Storm stood with her eyes closed for a few seconds before she looked up at him softly.

"Zelos..." she sighed.

"Glad to have you back," he replied.

"Some things are hard to forget," she said as she pulled him into another kiss.

With Zelos' love back in her heart, things became clearer. She could remember almost everything. Her friends, her past, her enemies, her family, her life. It all flowed back to her heart and soul. All in one kiss. They separated once more and saw Kratos coming into the tower.

"I see you two remember each other. How do you feel Storm?" he asked.

"I remember," she answered. "Thank you Zelos."

"I'm always happy to kiss you," he said as he pecked her on the lips, happy to get his wife back.

Storm suddenly remembered the Cruxis Crystal on her neck and reached down to touch it. She finally realized who it belonged to and also realized what horrible things she had done since she lost her memory.

"We have to find the others. I have to give Presea's crystal back. I feel so horrible for what I've done. Now they'll never trust me," she sighed.

"Don't say that. They all understand what happened. It's not your fault. It was Forcytus'," Zelos tried to cheer her up.

"Yes, Lloyd and the others will forgive your actions," Kratos added.

"Lloyd!" Storm cried out. "Oh, I can't believe what I did. I could have killed him."

"Well, thankfully Raine and the others were with him. Knowing your brother, he'll forgive you easily," Kratos told her.

Storm nodded her head to make Zelos and Kratos think that she was convinced but she had a hard time believing that anyone could forgive that easily. She knew that they would have a hard time trusting her and she didn't blame them.

The small band walked out of the Tower of Salvation in hopes of searching for the rest of the group. They soon realized that they had joined up with Presea and Regal and were heading in their direction. They soon saw them coming towards them and they met up with each other. They were all extremely happy to see that Storm was finally back to her normal self.

Storm was happy to know that things were looking up. She walked over to where Presea was standing and was about to talk to her when she was suddenly restrained by someone from behind. She was being strangled by someone as they held a sword up to her neck.

Well, that's it there. Sorry if it was short but that's where I wanted to end. One chapter left unless I decide to make it two more, we'll see. Anyway, thanks for reading, sorry for the cliffie, and please review.
