Yes! The group is finally at Palmacosta! And Sheena too! Almost… Anyway, let's start!
Damn school! ARGH! I never have the time to write anymore!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sheena chewed on a fruit that she found. She'd seen fruits like those before in a fruit market so she was quite sure that they aren't poisonous. Corrine walked beside her, chewing on a small piece of the fruit Sheena ate. After all, there are two of them and only one fruit, so they had to split it.
"This fruit tastes great!" Sheena said and swallowed a piece. "I wonder why they have it in Tethe'alla too… I wish the Renegades would tell us a little more about Sylvarant before sending me here." She took another bite. Corrine swallowed the last from the fruit.
"There must be some reason." Corrine said.
"We know the reason, remember?" Sheena said. "They said: 'If you want Tethe'alla to prosper, kill the Chosen of Sylvarant.' "
Corrine looked at Sheena. "But why did they tell us that?"
"Well… I don't really know but, maybe they're from Tethe'alla and want to protect their land, like us." Sheena answered.
"Yes, perhaps that's the case."
"…" Sheena looked down.
"Is something wrong Sheena?" Corrine asked
"Ah, no! Nothing!..." Sheena lied, sounding cheerfully.
They continued to walk down the road silently. Sheena ate up the last of the fruit and threw it on the ground, a nice breeze passed by.
Sylvarant was a lot different than I thought it would be. I suddenly got the will to explore… Maybe I'll do that later, after all, Sylvarant got some good tourist spots. She thought
Sheena closed her eyes and enjoyed the moment. Then she opened her eyes and looked at Corrine. She sighed.
Corrine…What would I do without you?...
They saw something far away in the distant, looked like some buildings. Sheena quickly unfolded the map. That was probably Palmacosta, she smiled and started to dash in that direction. Corrine ran after her.
For every step she took the buildings seemed to grow. She continued to run, fast, but not so fast that she would get tired easy. They ran up for a small hill and looked at the big city from the hill.
Sheena smiled "This hill has a nice view!..." she said.
Corrine nodded in reply.
A priest walked by with something. He had wrapped the object in brown clothing, but not all of it was covering the item. The curiosity grabbed Sheena and she sneaked behind a tree and climbed up on it. Seconds later, walked the priest under the tree and unwraps the package. Sheena climbed longer out the branch. It looked like a beautiful statue of a woman, or rather an angel since she had wings. On the top of the statue was a large diamond that probably would represent the halo. The priest wrapped the statue again and then ran to the opposite direction of Palmacosta.
I wonder what that statue was… It seemed very important and classy. I wonder how much gald its worth. Not that I want to steal it or anything but…
A large crack was heard as the branch started to move. Sheena quickly turned her head and saw that the branch was about to break. Sheena quickly jumped down from the tree.
"Let's go! We lost some time by spying on that priest." Sheena said and they both ran down the hill. As they ran down their speed increased and it was hard to keep the balance.
"Ah!" thump! She tripped on a rock. Sheena groaned as she lied in the grass.

She looked at her hands. They were all scrapped up.
It isn't bleeding that bad, and it only a little painful. Nothing to worry about… And, it's certainly nothing to bother Lloyd and
the others with… If I tell them about this, even though it's REALLY nothing to worry about everyone will freak out like I
was dying or something and then I'll be just more of a burden to them. I just want to regenerate the world as quickly as
possible but I don't want to rush them or anything… Everyone is counting on me, and I can't afford to fail…
Not now when everyone is suffering… Colette sighed.
Lloyd looked at her. "Hm? Is something wrong Colette? Are you tired?"
"Wha?" Colette looked up. "Ah…Nothing!" Colette quickly hid her hands behind her back. "Heh…" Colette fake giggled.
I'm so sorry Lloyd! But I can't tell you that… I'm not going to be around anymore after this journey! It hurts so much when you talk about what we are going to do after this!... But I have to do this… it's for the sake of The Regeneration!
Colette bit her lip.
I'm so sorry!...

Sheena walked over the bridge. She looked around as she kept walking, looking for any signs that the Chosen might be here.
As she walked past a building she saw a pretty potted flower on the window sill.
"Who's there!" A woman said who was in the room. "You!" she commanded another maid. "Bring me something to throw at her!"
Sheena quickly ran away and crossed another bridge.
How many bridges are there in this city! Sheena sighed and continued to walk. Soon she arrived at the town centre.
There was some people and a priest walking around. At her left side there was a big building that looked important and was
out of her business. In front of her was a church as she walked up to it a priest said:
"Welcome to the Church of Martel!"
Sheena was shocked.
Church of Martel! That exists in Tethe'alla!... Is Sylvarant and Tethe'alla connected in some historical way and
not by the battle of mana?... I wonder…
Sheena ignored the priest and walked down some steps and saw a big boat. She walked up to it.
"Wow, I'd heard they were behind times, but this sure is an ancient design." Sheena said it out loud so the crew men would hear.
"Hey! How dare you insult our Isabelle!" A crew man shouted to her.
"Oh, shut up." Sheena said, starting to get a little pissed. "What are you getting so worked-up about I'm…"
Sheena spots a familiar group of 5 people. A blonde girl, a brown haired guy, a short silver haried boy, a man and probably the silver haired boy's mom or something.
"Uh…" Dammit! What are they doing here? "J…just remember, you're dead the next time we meet!"
Sheena retreated for now.
"Ddin't she say something like that last time?..." The brown haired guy said as she left.
You'll be the first one to be dead next time we meet! Sheena thought and showed the long finger to him.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lloyd starred at her as she ran off.
"She's rude!" Lloyd said and then he returned to watch the boat. But he didn't enjoy as much as he did 1 minute ago... Now the boat seemed... boring and the sudden appearence of the Assassin made him get her on his mind.

I hope you liked this chapter! Anyway, I think it's going to be a little Sheloyd, so if you really hate that coupling tell me why, and maybe I'll reconsider :)
Note: Sheena doesn't know the names of anyone in this group. That's why she thinks that Raine is probably Genis' mother.
