Suzu: Helloooooooo! Wow, it hasn't been that long since updation!

Zelos: Like, a week.

Jet: Would you all be quiet. I'm busy.

Suzu: You? Busy? Now I'm curious.

Jet: Be quiet. I'm trying to concentrate.

Suzu: But what are you doing?

Jet: Playing Pellet Checkers. (Moves pellet) Hah! King me!

Kratos: I'll king you…(attacks Jet in fury)

Jet: O.o AHHHHH!

Suzu: -.- Back to the important stuff. Thanks for reviewing, guys! I shall respond to my heart's desire!

Jet: AHHHHHHH! (still getting brutally mauled and beaten by Kratos)

Suzu: …

Streek-has-returned471—Oo Um…o-okay…

Art Vincent Musicanova—Yeah, Tom is an assassin. Hint, Tom isn't his real name. He doesn't have a name. Loser. And hey, a reviewer asked for Lloyd to kiss Kratos, so…I swallowed my pureness and wrote it. Ick. But in humor fics, anything can happen! Kill Regal, hmmm…good idea, even though I'm more of a "don't kill the characters but still brutally torture them" kinda girl. But I'll give it shot, since I felt so happy in the game when I got to bang him over the head with a sword.

Ryu Warrior—Glad you liked it. I can always imagine Colette's face when I make those faces. Completely clueless. Period. Yeah, and DO continue writing! Thanks for reviewing!

SnowCrystal—Hey, the Mithos/Colette part made ME laugh…at my own humor. That's pretty odd. That's like laughing when tickling yourself. ANYWAY, yeah the 4 angels are always being stupid…because they pretty much are. X3 I just love them!

Luciado—AAAAHHH! Someone knows more about BJ than ME! (starts studying about Joel's life) But anyway, I adore Billy too! XD His songs rock! I know where he came up with the songs and a bit about his life (like he married a young girl recently Oo ), though I just learned about We Didn't Start the Fire (great song, I almost have it memorized but only if I hear the tune and words). My favorite, as I said, is Italian Restaurant, with a bunch of others that are his top songs as my seconds (The Stranger, Piano Man, Entertainer, etc). I LOVE HIM! Oh and Don McLean too, and Queen.

Teddy-the-Bear—Hey, YOU try controlling her, that violent banshee! (runs from Sheena who is waving around a paper fan threateningly) O.o EEEK! Glad you liked iiiiiiittt!

Someone—I would kill off that moron klutz, but she's pretty necessary to tick everyone off. But…maybe I COULD and SHOULD kill her…more info on Tom in the story coming up!

Peaches—You like me? Awesome! I like you too! Hey when you ask, I try to do. I still haven't shrunk anyone. Sorry! I'm getting there. Kill Tom? Maybe. If you really wanna know…you'll find out sooner or later!

Suzu: Wow! I'm loved.

Jet: (Badly bruised and bleeding) You wish.

Suzu: Nii-chan!

Jet: Yes?

Suzu: Prepare to die!

Jet: Oo

Suzu: Kratos get him!

Kratos: Get him yourself.

Suzu: TT Kratty-chan!

Kratos: …don't call me that.

Suzu: …(cries) Waaaaah! Kratty-chan doesn't love me anymore!

Kratos: (bit taken back) Quit fake crying!

Suzu: Okay Kratty-chan.

Kratos: --

Jet: X3 I kick trees…

All: …

Jet: What? Did I say something?

All: …

Jet: (blinks) What?

All: …

Jet: Stop being so silent!

All: …

Jet: This is creeping me out…

All: …

Jet: That's it! Eruption!

All: AAHHH! (instantly KO'ed)

Jet: Well that worked. (whistles and reads some random manga)

Raine: (Walks in after being absent for…some reason) Oh Martel! What happened here?

Jet: (Casually, not looking up) Nothing.
All: XX

Raine: (Glares) Jet…

Jet: Yes, Raine-san?

Raine: What did you do…

Jet: …nothing…

Raine: (sighs) Resurrection!

All: (Come back alive) We're alive!

Jet: Oo Uh oh.

Suzu: (Blink blink) What happened?

Jet: For the third time…nothing!

Suzu: Oh…anyway announcement! I don't like Regal or Colette. Meaning, a lot of bashing on the two. Lloyd? I like him; just he's in character. X3 Or a bit out, maybe too stupid than he is supposed to be…anyway, if I say Chosen, I'm talking about Zelos. All the time. I don't view Colette as a Chosen in this story. I don't like her. She isn't good enough to compare with Zelos. Riiiight, Zelly-chan?

Zelos: X3 Puuuuuuuuurrrrrrr…

Jet: --; Did you bewitch him?

Suzu: No. I'm just loveable.

Zelos: On with the fic!

"I wonder why the Professor is screaming?" Lloyd asked, running alongside Kratos, Yuan, Zelos, and Genis. The other four gave him a "stop-bringing-up-stupid-conversations" look.

"Maybe she's in danger or something?" Genis answered sarcastically.

"I doubt it. She may be causing danger," Yuan scoffed, frowning.

"Well either way…" Lloyd went into his "I'm manly!" mode. "We gotta save her!"

"Yeah!" Genis agreed blissfully while the other three grunted a response, not really wanting to meet Tim or Tom or whatever his name was. They couldn't remember, nor cared. "If she's in danger, she would need our help!"

How wrong they are. Danger? I think Raine was far from it. People near her? Yeah, that's where the danger comes in.

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Raine screamed over the cowering Regal. The man had his arms in a defensive position above his head, which were now uncuffed by the way. "You idiot! That was an irreplaceable artifact from this new world! I COULD have studied it farther, if you didn't BREAK IT!"

"B-but Professor-sama," he pleaded. "It was just some clay vase that a kid made in art class-"

"NO EXCUSES!" Here comes pain. Now more screaming is heard.

"That wasn't the Professor…" Lloyd said quite obviously.

"That sounded like Regal. Maybe he's in danger too?" Genis asked.

Zelos sighed. "Probably. Let's go find some chemicals to burn holes through walls."

"Now's not the time, you stupid Chosen!"

"C'mere brat, I'll make a hole in YOU!"

"Enough!" Kratos snarled. "The sooner we find Raine, the sooner we can go our opposite ways. The best way is to travel in groups but not ALL together. If what's-his-name catches us while we are all together, we're screwed. But if we are in groups yet not everyone is together, we have a bigger chance to be rescued or escape."

"Yeah…that makes sense…" Lloyd said, though he was completely lying. He had no idea what Kratos just said. But the others did, so he went along with it. As they continued walking, Regal screamed again followed by a twisted and psycho cackle. The laugh made them all shiver for a second, giving them chills.

"I think it came from over there," Yuan said, pointing to the left. They turned the corner and ran down the hallway, passing classrooms.

"This looks like science…math…science again…" Zelos said, glancing in the classrooms as they past and getting hints on what was taught there. "history…math…art…english…whoa hold up!" Zelos skidded to a stop. The others stopped a bit ahead of him, puzzled with the surprise pausing.

"What?" Yuan said, already annoyed to past his fullest extent.

"I saw them! Back it up!" Zelos spun around on the ball of his foot and raced back, catching the frame of the door to the art room to see inside. There was Raine, who was panting with a perverse look and at her feet was a badly beaten and mauled Regal. At least, it looked like Regal.

"Geez," Zelos said, slowly walking in as the others appeared at the doorway, strangely except for Kratos, who was taking his time apparently. He crouched down and poked Regal with his index finger. "Seems this poor soul fell victim to Raine-Rage."

Raine towered over the crouching Chosen, who meeped in instant fear. The professor's face was twisted in fury, her eyes burning in rage. "He fell to what, good Chosen?" She said, her voice strangely calm-like and shaky. Evil.

"Meep…um…Ra-"

"I KNOW WHAT YOU SAID!" Raine kicked the poor Chosen straight in the face. Zelos was flung back towards the doorway followed by a spurt of blood from his nose and mouth. The rest, who were inside now, jumped out of the way. Just as Kratos turned into the room the Chosen collided into him, and he was forced back by the force. Kratos stumbled back in confusion, and his back was flattened against the opposite wall, head smacking the concrete. Both angels groaned miserably and crumbled to the ground, Zelos' motionless body on top of Kratos' like a cross, the Chosen horizontal and the Seraphim vertical. The rest of the party, however, could have cared less, they were just happy it wasn't them. Well, except for Regal. He already got what was coming to him.

"Well two more victims of Raine-Rage," Lloyd said, loudly too. I guess he didn't know what happened to Zelos when HE said that…

"Of what, dear Lloyd?"

"Uhh…" Lloyd hid behind Yuan. "Save me!"

Raine meant to kick forward, and Yuan simply moved out of the way. Raine missed, since Lloyd held onto Yuan like a leech. This…actually calmed Raine down a little.

"What's going on?" Mithos said, walking in the door with Colette skipping behind him. "Kratos and the Chosen are laying unconscious outside the door."

"Nothing," Raine said calmly, actually smiling. "How nice, my friends came to see me."

"What happened to Regal-san!" :O Colette literally screamed, putting her hands over her mouth in a shocked expression.

"Nothing you should see Colette!" Raine screeched. "You are on a strict document of only G rated!"

"Oh okay." :D

"Hey look isn't that what's-his-name?" Lloyd said, still hanging onto Yuan's back. He was glancing back at the doorway.

Everyone looked to see the axe-murderer gathering the unconscious Kratos and Zelos. Yet they did absolutely nothing. Jeez, if my friends were getting angel-napped by a stupid axe-murderer, I would…oh right, I wouldn't do anything either. (whistles innocently)

"Hi Tom!" :D Colette waved like a moron furiously at Tom. He jumped and spun around, holding the each angel's wrist in both hands. The two dragged behind him like rag dolls.

"Um…hi."

"Hey!" Lloyd said. "Let our friends go, Todd!"

"It's TOM!"

"Whatever."

By their faces, Lloyd seemed to be the only one who was anxious to rescue Kratos and the Chosen. Yuan looked livid, annoyed with Lloyd on his back but still said nothing. Genis was staring, a creepy stare and completely blank. Raine looked like herself, yet inside evilness was twisting and turning inside her soul, flashing every so often in her eyes. Mithos could care less what happened to the others, since he tried to kill them in the first place anyway. Colette never stopped smiling, barely blinking, looking kinda uncanny. Regal? He's basically on the brink of death. Use your imagination. It will create happy dreams for you tonight.

"Anyway," Tom said. "I have to go. Mind if I borrow your friends?"

"Why?" Lloyd asked suspiciously.

"Because…because we wanna have a tea party."

"Oh Lloyd, let them have their tea party!" :O

"But…" Lloyd looked puzzled. Yuan took this moment to shoot a ball of lightning at Tom, who didn't jump out of the way in time. Screaming in pain the electricity traveled to whatever Tom was holding. This would include Kratos and Zelos.

Now with all three of them screaming, the rest of the party watched in awe. Kratos jumped to his feet with the ball of electricity surrounding the three of them and jolted his hands to the side, and the ball was canceled out.

"You jerk!" Zelos snarled, in a kneeling position behind Tom who was sprawled out on the floor with spirals for eyes, mouth open in a crazed smile. The Chosen has his hands between his knees on the cold concrete, glowering through the door at the party. Mainly at Yuan. "Why did you do that!"

"Hey I just saved your worthless life," Yuan snarled back, arms crossed and looking at Zelos like he was a spoiled potato or something.

Kratos was concentrating on healing himself and Zelos with First Aid. "So what about him?" Kratos asked half-heartedly, after the two were healed. Oops. Kratos forgot to include Regal in the healing process. Oh well, better luck next time, el presidente. (Cackles)

"We could have him for dinner," Zelos said, grinning evilly. Genis looked at him and shuddered, remembering what Zelos had said a couple chapters ago.

"Um…let's not and say we did," Kratos said, frowning with disgust. The chosen lowered his gaze in disappointment. Holy crap, since when was Zelos a cannibal? Oo

"We could just leave him here," Yuan offered. Go to a different area."

"Good idea! Wow, Yuan you're really smart!" Lloyd complimented with a wide and happy smile, chuckling. He placed his chin lazily on Yuan's shoulder, still grinning.

Yuan raised an eyebrow, glancing back at Lloyd without turning his head. "I thought it would be an obvious plan."

So the party all moved. They don't know where yet, but they were going in the opposite direction of the murderer, to the other side of the school.

"Who are we missing?" Raine asked, glancing over the group. Kratos and Yuan were walking ahead of them, followed by the disgruntled Chosen. Lloyd still hasn't left Yuan's back, but he was pretty light so Yuan didn't seem to notice anymore. Next to Zelos walked Raine, who the Chosen kept eyeing every so often suspiciously, very cautious in case Raine down poured on them again in fury. Hahah, I made a funny pun! Behind them half walked, half limped Regal, who finally healed himself since no one else paid attention to him. Genis was walking behind his sister. Following up the rear was Mithos and Colette. Poor Mithos was really getting annoyed with the klutzy girl, grumbling as she chattered about stuff that he couldn't even understand, except her apologies, which made him flinch each time. It's a miracle that he didn't turn around and stab her in the eyes. I would. Mighty quickly too.

"Let's see," Genis said, instantly taking up the opportunity to be all smart-like. "Here is me, sis, Lloyd, Yuan, Kratos, moron, klutz, Mithos, and what's-his-face…oh right Regal. That's 9. There are 11. Two are missing. Presea and Sheena."

"You could have just answered Presea and Sheena, seeing that somehow, we figured the rest out," Yuan said, glaring back at the half-elven boy. Genis cowered and whimpered.

"They are defiantly hiding, that's obvious," Kratos said. "We should just leave them to their hiding spot. If we reveal it, it could make it easier for that murderer to find them."

"I don't like the thought of killing people." :D

"Stop being so damn happy."

"But happiness fills the world with…happiness!" :D

Kratos was damn close to snapping. If Yuan was paying any attention, Colette would have been smashed around with heavy mining equipment and left bleeding in the moonlight. Luckily for her, he was oblivious to what was happening behind him.

"One more word out of you," Kratos said, keeping his voice amazingly steady. "And I'll carve off your skin and make funny little hats!"

"Will that hurt?" :O

"Wanna try?"

"Okay." :D

Before Kratos could take a step closer to the klutz, footsteps were heard in the distance. Well, in the distance of the school. You get me, right?

"Who's that?" Lloyd asked, glancing down at Yuan.

"How should I know?" The Renegade leader snapped. "If I listen closely to the steps I can tell who's making them? Get real."

"We are real, Yuan-sama." :D

Kratos' eye twitched. "Okay I can't take it. Can I kill her now?"

"I'm not stopping you," Yuan said, continuing to walk without the slightest hesitation.

"Shouldn't we wait for those footsteps?" Lloyd said as Kratos dived towards Colette with a mallet, beating her into a state worse than Regal. Blood rained down everywhere yet the party ignored it, except for Genis as he began to get sick and tried to not throw up.

"No," Yuan answered bluntly. "Remember, we have an axe murderer after us."

"Why is he called an axe murderer?" Lloyd asked, blinking in puzzlement. "I never saw him carry an axe."

"It's either that or Tom," said Raine. "Would you rather call him Tom?"

"But…what about chainsaw murderer?"

"Too long," Mithos said.

"What about party-napper murderer?"

"That's even longer, idiot!"

"Does he even need a name?" Yuan snarled. "Just shut up and let's keep walking."

They continued, with Colette's corpse being stuck on the mallet in Kratos' hands and dragged behind him leaving a trail of blood, making Genis even sicker. The footsteps got louder and louder, and faster in pace showing that the person was now running. As the steps got closer, the party started to feel anxious in their chests, and when they got even closer, the group broke into a panic bolt. However the steps still got closer! Who is following our heroes? Will they escape whatever is in store for them? Will Colette ever be revived? Find out…in the next chapter!

Hahah, I fooled you, you gullible suckers! Hahahahah- (dodges knives) AH! Um…back to the story!

The party turned to corner to see what they didn't want to see. It was Tom! Gasp!

"Crap!" Yuan yelled in surprise. "You're everywhere!"

"I know," Tom said in a creepy voice. "I've come…to kiiiiill you…"

"You'll never succeed, Mike!" Lloyd yelled in raising his fist at the murderer.

"TOM!" He snarled. "You weren't even close!"

"Why do you want to kill us?" Kratos said, narrowing his eyes at Tom. The murderer glanced Kratos' appearance, pausing on the bleeding girl stuck on the mallet in the angel's fist. Or least it looked like a girl. He couldn't really tell anymore.

"Because," he answered. "I can."

"That works." Kratos shrugged. "How'd you find us?"

"I followed the blood. You guys don't cover your tracks very well."

"Well we learned a lesson. Bye." Yuan turned and ran, Lloyd slipping a bit on his back, still not getting off. Kratos instantly turned and followed at his heels, with Colette dragging behind, grabbing the Chosen by the wrist and pulled him. Raine seized the recuperating Regal and the sick Genis by the back of their shirts and bolted after them with Mithos tailing right behind her. Tom just stood there, and got an idea with a sneer.

The party entered a large room that looked like it was the nurse's room. They slammed the door shut with a loud bam and scrambled to the other side of the room. Beds were lined up and a table with a chair was beside the door. It was a pretty big room and they easily fit in it. There was a fridge against the wall. Raine opened it, and inside was some scrapes of food and a couple small bottles of water, plus two icepacks in the freezer. The party lifted their arms up and all cheered at the sight of food and water.

"Food! We are saved!" Lloyd said.

"Great, now get off!" Yuan grabbed the back of Lloyd's red outfit and flung him over his head, slamming his back on the floor. Raine sighed as Lloyd groaned in pain.

"Everyone get together," she ordered. When no one moved since they were suspicious, Raine pushed the all in a tight clump and mumbled a spell, shouting "Healing Circle!" In the area where they all stood, everyone was fully healed.

Kratos frowned. "Why couldn't you just use Revitalize?"

"Cause SOMEONE lost the Unicorn Horn."

"Raine," Genis said seriously. "That was you."

"Oh…right…don't judge me!" Her eyes flashed dangerously, abruptly ending the conversation. The party quickly separated across the room, investigating the area.

"Hey, Lloyd," Yuan said, staring at the beds.

"Yes Yuan?"

"There are only 6 beds."

"Yeah?"

"There are 11 of us."

"Yeah?"

Yuan glared at the boy with a "you're-a-moron" look. "I hate you."

As Lloyd looked at Yuan with a puzzled look Colette took the time to bother-…er…-keep Mithos company. Oddly, since the healing spell was pretty weak without the horn, she was revived and fully healed. Weird. So was Regal. Really weird. Oh and Kratty's mallet disappeared. When it did he made a small whimpering sound and his eyes held much sadness. Awwww, kawaii Kratty-chan, you'll get your mallet later! X3 (pet pet)

Anyway, back to important things. The party now gathered around their "leader", Raine.

"You all remember the rules, correct?" Raine said, glancing over the sitting party.

"No," Yuan answered bluntly. "We didn't memorize it like you did."

"Silence!" Raine snarled like Professor Snape (no own Potter). "No one asked you to speak!"

"But-"

"SILENCE! Now to business. We have limited food, so no snacks or anything. This means you, Lloyd." Lloyd looked down in disappointment. "Anyway, I'll rewrite the rules. Also it seems we don't have enough beds. We'll figure this out later. For now, this is our 'base'. We'll need to be able to barricade the door or something to make sure Tom doesn't get in. Also, we need a password. I'll build a special machine on the door that when you punch in the right numbers it opens. As for our password, it's 'Noishe'."

"Noishe?" Kratos repeated, raising his eyebrow slightly.

"Yes, Noishe! Got a problem with that?"

"No ma'am."

"Good. Now I'll get started on the machine thing."

"Don't you need stuff?" Zelos said. "Like weap-er-tools and parts?"

"No. Well yeah but I have everything here."

"How do you know?"

"I know everything! Now time for jobs. Four angels, go find Sheena and Presea and bring them back here. The rest, help me find tools and parts and help build this thing. Ready, go!" Jumping to their feet the party got to work. The four angels dashed out the door as the rest of the party scattered around the room.

Suzu: Phew. That was pretty long.

Jet: Mazing.

Suzu: Really?

Jet: No.

Suzu: You're mean.

Jet: Nah, I'm open-minded.

Kratos: May I ask something.
Suzu: No but go ahead.

Kratos: Will there be a chapter where you leave us alone?

Suzu: Who?

Kratos: Guess.

Suzu: Ah, you four angels? To answer your question…no.

Kratos: Can I ask something else?

Suzu: Hai?

Kratos: Are you EVER gonna shrink someone?

Suzu: …I TRY DAMMIT!

Kratos: …

Suzu: This will have to do for the moment. Yami!

Ziggy: Eh?

Suzu: C'mon, Zigz, you are in my mind most of your time.

Ziggy: Oh right. (closes eyes and a huge flash erupts across the area. Suddenly…Genis disappears!)

Lloyd: Where's Genis? Genis!

Suzu: Right there.

Genis: (Is shrunken) AHHHHHHH!

Jet: …BWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

Party: Oo;

Ziggy: My deed is done. (falls back into a hammock)

Suzu: Get used to that, Genis.

Party: Oo;

Raine: (has a mini heart failure)

Suzu: Ja ne and R&R! Please leave any suggestions you wish for, and I'll try to put them in! Try to make sure it fits in the story, though. Kratty-chan would kill me if I stray, right Kratty-chan?

Kratos: (glowers)

Suzu: See? He's scary.

Kratos: I'm not scary. This is my normal face.

Suzu: That makes it scarier.

Zelos: Look I didn't get smacked this whole chapter!

Sheena: Oh right. (slap!)

Zelos: O …ouch…

Jet: Knock on wood, Chosen.

Zelos: …wha-

Kratos: Hold up, Chosen, you almost stepped on Genis.

Zelos: Oops. (snatches up Genis and puts him in a bird cage.) Deal with that.

Genis: TT
