A/N: Thank you to all my wonderful reviewers! I feel so motivated to continue now! XD I feel so special, so many good reviews right after I put this up…and it's my very first story too! Yes, my story has really short chapters…but they gradually get longer and pretty soon you'll be wishing they were shorter. XD But this one is still kinda short…and it's really terrible…I need to go through the game again and remember better. Italics for remembrances…

Albel: Why am I not in this story? The summary says Fayt AND Albel!

Me: Patience, Albel. You come in during chapter 4.

Albel: Chapter 4! I do not have that long to wait, maggot. I demand that you write me into this chapter now or I will cut off all your fingers and choke you to death with them.

Me: Umm..but if you do that, then you'll never be in the story.

Albel: Fair enough, worm. Now, hurry up and write this crappy excuse for a story.

Me: Yes, Your Wickedness.

Albel: (enraged) What did you just call me, maggot! You die now!

Me: Oh wait…you have to leave..you can't hear about this yet! (pushes him out the door) Sorry folks…but just so you know, no Albels were harmed in this conversation.

Disclaimer: I did not create starocean…or I would have remembered this scene better…also, Albel would be nicer to me since that would make me his supreme creator! Muahaha…er…well, but I'm not. (hides before Albel hears that)

Huge fireballs streaked through the sky like comets and exploded on impact. A huge starship cruised through the sky, raining down these fiery projectiles. The explosions cut deep into the ground, throwing up dirt and rock.

"The Vendeen?" Fayt shouted. "What are they doing here?"

Nel, Cliff and Fayt silently watched the senseless destruction. The Aquarian symbological weapons were no match for the Vendeeni weapons. Aquarian soldiers fell quickly left and right. The force of the explosions threw them through the air and then they landed in the dirt, most likely dead.

Fayt angrily kicked at the dirt. "It's all because of me, isn't it? They're here because of me. It's my fault that Hyda II was attacked. It's my fault the Vendeeni attacked the Eagle.The're after me again her on Elicoor and all these people are dying because of me!"

Cliff looked away and said nothing, but Fayt could tell he knew the truth.

"Retreat!" shouted Dion, the Aquarian symbological expert. "Retreat and leave the symbological weapons behind! They are useless here. Retreat to Arias!"

At that moment, a huge fireball hit the ground near the weapon manned by Dion and exploded. Dion and several of his assistants were thrown to the air and lay still.

"No!" Fayt shouted, clapping his hands over his ears. "I promised Ameena I would get him back safely."

Fayt's eyes fell restlessly upon all the Aquarian soldiers lying dead and bleeding on the cold ground. He hoked back a sob. "No, this is all my fault. Symbology is no match for Vendeeni technology. How could they slaughter so many innocent people just because of me?"

Just as Fayt was about to break down completely, something wonderful happened. Fayt was suddenly unaware of his surroundings. His whole body had suddenly been covered with tiny pinpricks of light. His eyes became glowing orbs. He threw his head back and his whole body glowed blue. A stream of pure light shot up into the sky from his body, instantly vaporizing the Vendeeni ship. Exhausted by his efforts, Fayt finally collapsed.
