(A/N: That's right fans, Valmar Returns is back! Unlike my comrade T.C. Rose who started her very popular FF story Victim over with a clean version, I rather have a little recap chapter for all who didn't read the story before it was removed from the site. I will be continueing on with the story at this point. But how I wish I can get all those reviews back, I was on my way to 100! ARRGH! Oh well, I hope my faithful reviewers can support me once again.:)
"This has been a wild month..."
The individual that uttered that short statement was Ryudo. A young geohound that was currently stressed over the prior 30 days of hell that he went through. He was resting on a bed in Captain Bakala's ship. His sword glistening in the moonlit room beside his supplies. He wasn't fully ready to sleep just yet.
His mind ran briefly, yet, the images pour out like a transparent liquid in a clean glass. The first yet, almost faded image of him doing a job for a girl named Alicia around his age. A weird conversation later and he found himself taking her to a circus event where he found Elena after a year apart.
Things turn from weird to fatal as large, purple wolfs ended the fun event and prompted him to save Elena and the irony is she saved him. Fast forward to traveling to Cyrum Kingdom to reunite with Roan and Tio to find out if Valmar is indeed still alive or not. Drama resurfaced when Millennia joined the party once again. Millennia and Elena's love for Ryudo to great to be ignored and therefore jealousy and envy did play it's part.
And don't forget the love triangle, Millennia and Elena actually settled their differences and focused on the task at hand. Also, Elena and Ryudo finally made love and seem to be the perfect couple at the time.
Nevertheless, battling many enemies along way led to Garmia Tower in Carbo Village where the party neared defeat and death, but, they were saved from an unexpected guest, Ryudo's brother, Melfice who somehow was resurrected with the power of the Gransaber that Ryudo placed on his grave. With the exception of Ryudo, the party highly objected the idea of Melfice assisting the party, but Ryudo accepted his older brother's offer despite many protests.
Liligue City was the next destination as they gave Major Gadan a visit. Gadan was currently in a meeting with Captain Bakala who was discussing building a strong enough ship to cross the new Grana Ocean (Since the Grana Cliffs are now filled with water). Gadan however, was not persuaded to spend the town's money on Bakala until Ryudo negotiated by putting Elena up for a date with him.
With Elena on a date with Gadan, and Millennia along with Tio was supervising by posing as waitresses; Ryudo, Skye, Melfice, and Roan ventured out into the streets to find any clues. In the midst of this, Roan disappeared which sidetrack the remaining three as they search for him. They found him in the church, which was surrounded by a mysterious fog that housed Roan and his kidnapper. Haze, a member of a new organization called The Light Alliance, a band of crusaders that wants the get rid of any anti-Granas followers was responsible and engaged in battle with the heroes.
Thanks to the group effort, the party defeated Haze, persuaded Gadan to provide the resources needed to fix Captain Bakala's ship. And here they are, 3 days later. The numerous thoughts lingering in the young man's head finally succumb him to sleep.
Gazing at the glittering ocean below, there stood Millennia with her hands on her hips. She let out a sigh as she turned her attention at the full moon. "What a romantic setting, and no Romeo to share it with. Go figure!" She stomped her foot rather bitterly,
"Darling, you don't have to be..."
Millennia spun around to find Melfice watching her. He walked slowly beside her to share her view of the water. "Just what I need! What do you want?" She asked in an irritable tone.
He simply smirked as he moved strands of his long blue hair away from his face. His dark blue eyes now clearly visible. "I couldn't sleep and I wouldn't mind a little company." He answered. He grab hold of her left hand but she snatched it away instantly.
"You are definitely unwanted company mister! I'm not being friends with anyone that try to kill Ryudo!" She said with a frown. He merely chuckled. "Do you forget that I was possessed by Valmar?"
She turned with her back facing him as she folded her arms. "And do you think I forgot that it was your choice to gain that power, was it not?" She asked.
"I didn't choose anything! All I saw was a purple smoke that surrounded me. I had no choice!" He yelled back defensively.
"Oh, I'm sure!" Millennia stated as she gave him an accusing finger. "Didn't you want to be the best swordsman that you can be? It would be way easier by having that of a devil God backing him up!"
Melfice grimaced, "You hard-headed fool, you really think I was that power hungry to kill my own fiance, flee from my younger brother, and kill hundreds of civilians? You think I wanted to be the Horns of Valmar?"
"Well, if the sword fits..." She said a lot quieter but in a more evil tone.
The two stopped as they breathed heavily due to the constant yelling and heavy blood rushing. Suddenly, the two warriors quickly grasped each other as they kiss ferociously with deep passion.
(A/N:Weird ending? Well, it's all that I could come up with at the time!)
