I'M SORRY!

Gah, this update took way too long to post! I'm sorry!

And the only reason it's even being posted now is because Cami (Darkness-Chill) edited it for me since I have no time with JulNoWriMo going on.

Go check her out! fanfiction (dot) net / ~darknesschill

Anyways, this is another Sheena chapter. Picks up where the last left off: Sheena just got back to Zelos's from her visit to the castle and Zelos is bandaging her up.

I don't own ToS.

((SHEENA POV)))

As I carefully peeled the bandages off, Zelos' fists clenched and he growled.

"I'm going to kill him." The redhead muttered through clenched teeth.

"Zelos, it looks worse than it is, I promise. Just help me." I said, begging him with my eyes to just drop it already.

Zelos sighed, the tension visibly leaving his body as he very carefully re-bandaged the deep bruises. He was halfway through when he suddenly stopped.

"Idiot." He said, dropping the bandage roll.

"What? Zelos!" I exclaimed.

"I can just cast First Aid." He said.

"Oh. I hadn't thought of that – I forgot you have that ability now." I said, grinning.

He smiled back before closing his eyes and breathing deep. His Exsphere flashed. "First Aid."

The soothing feeling was immediate as his power washed over me. The ache subsided greatly, but didn't disappear completely. I looked down and while the bruises were no longer angry red and purple, they were the fading deep purple of an old bruise. I frowned, poking it, inhaling sharply as it was sore. Not nearly as bad as before, but not completely healed.

Zelos frowned. Closing his eyes, he muttered "First Aid".

Nothing changed. The faint bruising was still there.

"Why won't it work?" He asked, clearly frustrated.

"I don't know…" I said, confused. His spell worked before on my arm, so I didn't understand why it wasn't working now.

Zelos frowned, glaring at the bruising. "Let me try it like this…" He said, lightly placing his hand over the discoloration before concentrating and murmuring "First Aid".

Soft green light enveloped his fingertips and my skin, but when he pulled back, the lighter bruising remained.

"The only thing I can think of," he said, withdrawing his hand, "is that the spell isn't strong enough and I'm only healing the external bruising, not the internal."

I frowned, nodding. "That would explain why the cut on my arm healed so fast, if your magic really only works on the top level."

Zelos sighed, quickly running his hand through his hair. "Sorry, Sheena. Looks like I'm not as strong as I thought."

I rolled my eyes and smacked his arm. "Don't be an idiot. Instead of taking weeks to heal, this'll only take days."

Zelos scowled. "You shouldn't be hurt at all."

"Will you knock it off already? It happened, I'm fine, and would appreciate your help rewrapping this so I can get dressed." I said, returning his scowl.

Zelos sheepishly grinned, picking up the forgotten bandaging and wrapping me up quickly. I pulled on my clothes, only wincing slightly as the moments pulled on the bruising, not in nearly as much pain as before.

"Shall we?" Zelos asked with a smirk, opening the door and bowing grandly.

I rolled my eyes but couldn't stop a chuckled. Corrine jumped onto my shoulder and I led the way into the kitchen. There was a knock on the main door as we passed through the foyer and we both paused, sharing a look.

A maid quickly scurried over to the door, opening it with a small bow. "Welcome to House Wilder." She said.

A servant with a package bowed back. "This delivery is for one Master Zelos Wilder, by order of the King."

The maid took the box, nodding. "I will deliver it to him right away. Thank you. May the Goddess watch over you."

"And may She shine on you as well." The servant returned before leaving.

The maid quickly closed the door and started a little as she turned around and saw us waiting.

"I'll just take that now. Thanks, Lina." Zelos said, smiling at the girl.

"O-of course, Master Zelos!" Linda blushed, handing over the box and fleeing.

"Am I really that intimidating?" Zelos asked.

I rolled my eyes. "Idiot."

"What?" He exclaimed. "Why am I an idiot now?"

"She's not intimidated, she has a crush on you!" I said slowly, pronouncing each word carefully as one would when talking to someone a bit slow.

"Really? Lina? But she's been here since she was a kid!" Zelos said, looking thoughtful.

I sighed. "Yes, Lina. And most of the female staff."

"I never noticed…" Zelos said.

I shook my head at him. "Aside from your obliviousness, what's in the box?"

Zelos scowled but turned his gaze to the box. "If it's from the King, it's probably the Rheaird and communicators. I guess he wants me to leave soon…"

I frowned at the box. "A flying machine is in that box? You'll never fit on it!"

"Hey! Are you saying I'm fat?" Zelos yelled.

I chuckled. "No, idiot. Although…"

"You're lucky you're hurt or I'd make you eat those words." Zelos smirked.

I grinned. "I'd like to see you try."

Zelos laughed. "Another time. Sebastian always told me not to hit a girl. An injured girl, at that."

"And yet, that's never stopped you before." I grinned.

He shook his head. "You deserved it. And you certainly don't fight like a girl."

My grin widened, and I pretended to curtsy. "Thank you!"

Zelos laughed again, shaking his head and taking the box into the living, placing it on the couch. I followed after him, but grabbed his hand before he could open it.

"If there is a Rheaird in there, shouldn't we be opening it outside, just in case?" I asked.

Zelos frowned. "Huh. Guess Sebastian would be kinda mad if we trashed the house…"

I rolled my eyes. "You think?" I turned and led the grumbling redhead out to the back courtyard.

I nodded and Zelos placed the box down. Corrine tightened his grip on my neck as Zelos opened it. I patted his head, but kept my eyes on the box. Nothing flew out at us once it was open, which I took as a good sign.

Zelos frowned and pulled out two communicators and a small cube with a button on its top. He also withdrew a note, which he quickly skimmed, before saying to me: "Looks like one of these communicators is for you, so that you don't worry. You'll be my Tethe'allan contact and Yuan is my Sylvaranti contact. I'm to leave tomorrow at dawn."

Ignoring Zelos' last comment for now, I asked curiously: "What's the button on the cube do?"

"Apparently, it's a Wing Pack. The researchers in the lab have similar ones for ECs, but this one is for Rheairds." He explained.

I frowned but nodded, remembering Annabel gushing about something like that before she had left for Sybak.

Zelos took a step back and held out the small box. We looked at each other for a moment and my heart dropped into my stomach as it hit me that he was really leaving. Not if I have anything to do with it. I thought vehemently.

Zelos pressed the button and the box glowed a soft blue before some thing popped out.

"So that's a Rheaird?" I asked, studying the foreign machine. "Looks like you'll fit after all."

"Ha ha." Zelos deadpanned, circling the hovering Rheaird slowly.

It was violet and white and almost shaped like a bird. The front nose was curved downwards slightly, hiding a wheel which I assumed was used for ground landing. The main body had a small black seat and one wing extended on either side. Between the nose and the seat was a smooth pillar that appeared to be used for steering and had some buttons on it. The back end had a tail that hummed softly – that must be what propelled it through the sky – with another landing wheel tucked beneath it.

"You should try it, Zelos!" Corrine chirped.

I nodded. "Yeah. Give a whirl."

Zelos stepped up onto it, the Rheaird immediately balancing so he didn't tip it over. The seat was too low to be very comfortable, so Zelos straddled it, placing his hands lightly on the steering rod. Gently, he tilted it back and forth, and I watched in amazement as the machine responded to his slightest touch. He pulled up and flew slowly higher and higher, When he was well above my head, he called out: "I'm gonna take it outside of the city and try the buttons. Be back in a few."

Before I could responded, he was already flying away.

"Wow." I murmured, staring after him.

"Will we get to fly, too, Sheena?" Corrine asked.

I nodded. "If all goes according to plan, yeah."

Corrine's bell jingled. "I hope it isn't hard to do…"

"If Zelos can handle it, so can I." I answered. Before we could say anything more, Zelos zipped back overhead and quickly descended, moving at a much faster pace. He tapped a button and the landing wheels extended, placing his Rheaird firmly onto the ground. He pressed another button and the whirling turned off completely.

"Well?" I asked.

"It's easy to control. The only thing I don't like is there's nothing really keeping you on it." Zelos said as he hopped off.

I eyed it, nodding. "Yeah, that doesn't look very safe."

Zelos bent to examine the seat. "There's gotta be something… ahh!" He pulled back and motioned me closing, pointing out groves where your feet are placed. He pushed the side of the seat, and straps appeared.

"It looks like you can strap your feet in." Zelos said.

"No way those could hold you if you flipped upside down." I snorted.

Zelos grinned. "Let's find out!"

"What? No way, you'll get hurt!" I exclaimed.

Zelos rolled his eyes. "I won't try it from very high up. Besides, I have healing magic now. I'll be fine. I gotta test it now while I can, anyway."

Reluctantly, I nodded. Zelos stepped back onto the Rheaird, turning it on with the pressed of a button. I noted which button, and suddenly their pattern made sense. The first two were on and off, the next three were for speed, and the last was for landing, if I was watching right. Zelos strapped in and pulled up enough that he was hovering above the ground with enough room to execute a full flip.

"Here I go!" He shouted, tilting the Rheaird. Immediately, it turned over and Zelos did a complete 360. "Woohoo! That was awesome!"

"Does it feel sturdy?" I called up to him.

"Hell yeah. Watch this!" Zelos said, flipping over again but this time stopping so he was hanging upside down, grinning at me. Slowly, he let go of the steering rod and let his arms dropping, dangling them in from of my face. He was held in place by the straps alone. Amazing…

"Just what is this thing made of?" I said incredulously.

Zelos laughed. "I have no idea, but at least I don't have to worry about falling off!"

I thought about, then frowned as I had a sudden idea. "What if the engine or whatever gives out and explodes, and you have to jump off it really quickly?"

Zelos frowned, flipping right-side up and moving his feet around before he exclaimed "Got it!" and lowered the Rheaird to show me the release button he had found near the toe of his right foot. All he'd have to do it slide his foot forward a bit to press that, and the straps fell off.

Satisfied that the Rheaird was as safe as a flying hunk of metal could get, I nodded.

"All right. Enough playing. I'm hungry." I said, turning to head back inside.

"Aww, Sheena!" Zelos whined as he quickly shut off the Rheaird and climbed down, zapping it back into the Wing Pack. "You're no fun."

"Don't forget the communicators." I called over my shoulder, a satisfied smirk appearing on my face when I heard Zelos curse and have to double back.

Heading into the kitchen, I sniffed appreciatively at the smell of the beef stew simmering.

"Mhmm, Sebastian. It smells delicious!" I said, grinning at the butler.

"It should taste as good as well. Even though the cook has today off, I'm sure that all the years I've cooked your favorite meal has rubbed off." Sebastian said, turning and grinning at me.

Zelos walked in and thrust one communicator at me. "Here. It's yours, after all. Looks like they both have the other already programmed in."

I nodded, taking it and slipping it securely into my sash. "Thanks."

"You received the talking devices, then?" Sebastian asked.

Zelos nodded. "Yeah, along with the Rheaird."

"That is the flying device, correct?" Sebastian said, curiosity in his voice.

I chuckled. "Yeah, and it's pretty amazing. Why don't you show him, Zelos? I'll finish up cooking and add a few Mizuhoian spices that'll make it perfect."

Zelos grinned. "You and your picky tastes."

"Yeah, I'm not picky." I argued. "I just happen to like Mizuhoian style cooking the best."

"Yeah, yeah." Zelos said, waving a hand. "C'mon, Sebastian. Let's leave her to it before I have to listen to another lecture on the superiority of ninja cooking."

I rolled my eyes and Sebastian nodded to me as he tried to hide a smile, following Zelos out of the kitchen. As soon as I heard the door to the courtyard close behind them, I opened the top cabinet and pulled out one of the many spice jars I had stored there.

"Sheena! That one makes you sleepy!" Corrine said.

"I know." I said, tasting the beef stew to make sure it was good and pouring out two bowls full before dumping the spice into the pot and stirring.

"Why are you putting the sleep spice in there?" Corrine asked.

"So that Sebastian and Zelos go to sleep right after dinner and sleep deeply all night. At first light, I'll leave a note for Zelos and take the Rheaird to Sylvarant." I explained.

"Sheena!" Corrine exclaimed, his bell jingling in my ear as he shook his head, "You're really going to do that?"

"I have to, Corrine. I'm the Chosen One – it's my job to protect Tethe'alla, not Zelos's. I can't let him get hurt trying to protect me by doing this for me." I explained.

Corrine fidgeted. "Sheena…"

"Corrine. I have to." I turned my head to look at him, scratching behind his ears. "Will you come with me?"

"Of course!" Corrine yelled in my ear. "I'll protect you, Sheena, don't worry. But I don't think Zelos will be happy when he realizes you left…"

"He'll understand. Eventually." I said, shrugging. "Right?"

"Yeah!" Corrine chirped, nuzzling my face.

"Right." I said, exhaling slowly. "Thanks, Corrine."

Corrine purred.

I put some stew into the remaining bowls Sebastian had set out, careful not to get them mixed up.

"Corrine, are they still outside?" I asked.

Corrine poofed off my shoulder, returning a moment later. "Yes, Sheena."

I nodded my thanks, carrying the bowls to the table and setting the drugged ones in the places typically taken by Zelos and Sebastian when we managed to convince him to eat with us.

I set down my own bowl and Corrine's at my place and strode to the back door of the mansion. Poking my head out, I grinned at the sight of Zelos, who was on the Rheaird and showing off funny flips and loops.

"Food's done!" I yelled, going back to the dining table I had set and plopping down in front of my non-drugged bowl.

"Smells good, Sheena!" Zelos grinned as he came in and sat down across from me.

Corrine hopped off my shoulder and stood before his own bowl, sniffing appreciatively.

"I shall leave you to enjoy the meal, then." Sebastian said from the doorway.

I rolled my eyes. "C'mon, Sebastian. There's plenty of food."

"You should eat with us." Zelos said.

Sebastian hesitated. "It would be improper…"

It was Zelos's turn to roll his eyes. "You're our friend – what's wrong with friends sharing a meal? Sit down already so we can dig in!"

Sebastian sighed but couldn't hide a smile as he sat down in front of the other place I had set.

"Thank you." He said quietly.

I grinned. "Well, don't just sit there – let's eat!"

Turning words to actions, we ate in relative silence, each lost in our own thoughts and the delicious flavors of beef stew.

Scraping my bowl clean several long minutes later, I leaned back in my chair, belly full. Corrine sat on the table cleaning his paws and face, having finished much faster than any of us.

Zelos burbed, dropping his spoon. "Damn, Sheena. That was delicious!"

"Yes, the seasoning was perfect." Sebastian complimented.

Ignoring the small ball of guilt in my stomach, I smiled. "Thanks."

Zelos stretched, yawning and running his fingers quickly through his hair. "I don't know about you guys, but the long day added to the great meal has made me tired. What do you say to turning in early?"

"An excellent suggestion. Those who go early to bed are early to rise, after all." Sebastian said, standing and clearing the bowls away, stifling a yawn himself.

"Yeah. Plus I should get as much rest tonight as I can, since tomorrow I'm leaving." Zelos said, standing.

I couldn't help the frown that sprang to my face as I stood, and Zelos quickly walked around to give me a tight one-armed hug. "Don't worry; I'll be back before you get the chance to miss me."

"Yeah." I tried and failed to smile. "Night, Sebastian." I said as Corrine hopped up onto my shoulder and Zelos and I started heading for the stairs.

"Goodnight Chosen One Sheena, Master Zelos. May the Goddess guard your sleep." Sebastian answered, taking the hallway that led to the servant's rooms.

Zelos grinned. "Night, man."

Going up the stairs, we walked down the hall until we came to my bedroom.

"Thanks for today, Zelos. You're my best friend." I said, pulling the redhead close for a tight hug.

"Hey, hey. What's this, all of a sudden? You okay?" Zelos asked, pulling back and studying my face.

I tried to smile. "Yeah. Just worried about you."

Zelos grinned. "Don't be. I'll be fine. I'm the great Zelos Wilder, after all." More seriously, he said: "Sheena, you're my best friend, too. I'll always be here for you, okay?"

"Yeah. Thanks, Zelos. Goodnight." I said, stepping back and gripping the door's handle.

Zelos tucked a stray lock of my hair behind my ear. "Night, Sheena. Try to get some sleep. I know I'm gonna pass out as soon as I hit the bed."

I forced a chuckle. "Sweet dreams, then."

"You, too. Don't worry, I won't leave without saying goodbye. Night!" Zelos said, turning to go to his room, yawning again.

The ball of guilt in my stomach grew a little with each word he said. "Night." I forced out, quickly entering my bedroom and closing the door behind me, sagging against it.

"Sheena?" Corrine whispered.

"I don't want him to hate me." I muttered, moving to sit on my bed.

"He won't." Corrine reassured.

I nodded. "I hope you're right. I'm doing this, at least in part, for him. To keep him and everyone in Tethe'alla safe."

"I know, Sheena. And he'll know, too." Corrine said, hopping off my shoulder to sit on my lap.

I sighed, resolving to not think about it for a while. I had a long night ahead of me as I waited for dawn, anyway.

"Hey, Corrine. How will you get to Sylvarant?" I suddenly asked.

Corrine tilted his head, looking thoughtful. "You're supposed to be able to summon me from anywhere."

"I know, but what if it's different in Sylvarant? What if the place where Summon Spirits go is different, and since you won't be there but in Tethe'alla's place, I can't summon you?" I asked.

"Hmm… It shouldn't work like that, but I am not a usual Summon Spirit… Maybe we should link and I physically ride with you? Once there, I can check out the space and see if it's the same as here or not." Corrine said.

I nodded. "Okay. So we'll go like we do when I use a transportation card?"

"Yes." Corrine said, nodding, his bell jingling.

"Okay." I sighed. One less thing to worry about.

"You need to rest, Sheena." Corrine said.

"I can't – I have to write a note for Zelos and I have to leave at dawn." I responded.

"Write the note now and then rest. I'll wake you before dawn." Corrine said.

"Corrine…" I said, petting him.

"You need to be rested for our journey!" Corrine chirped.

"Okay, okay. Lemme get some paper…" I said, getting up and going over to my desk. I got out paper and a pen and thought for a moment before writing:

Zelos-
I'm sorry. I have to do this. Please forgive me. I'll call you when I get there. Don't worry about me – I can take care of myself. Take care of Sebastian and cover for me as long as you can. I owe you.

You're my best friend. Thank you.

-Sheena

Sighing, I put the pen down and looked at Corrine, who was reading what I had wrote. He nodded and I folded up the page, leaving it on the desk along with the communicator I had tucked into my sash.

Walking over to my closet, I pulled out a pack and quickly stuffed some clothes and all of my spare cards in there. Corrine poofed out of the room only to return seconds later with the travel basket Sebastian had packed with food and water for Zelos. Adding it to the pack, I climbed back onto the bed, settling down.

"Wake me a little before dawn." I said, closing my eyes.

"I will. Sleep well, Sheena." Corrine said.

Somehow, miraculously, I managed to fall asleep.

What felt like minutes later, Corrine was nudging my arm with his paw. "Sheena! Wake up!"

Groaning, I sat up and stretched. "What time is it?"

"Just before dawn. We should hurry if we're going to leave before anyone wakes up." Corrine said. "I'll meet you in the courtyard!" He poofed away.

Nodding, I grabbed the pack, securing it to my back. I double checked that my cards and communicator were still in my sash, then grabbed the note from my desk and carefully crept out of the room, silently closing the door behind me. I quietly walked down the hall to Zelos's bedroom, opening the door slowly. Tiptoeing inside, I walked over to the small stand next to the bed, placing my note on it next to Zelos's communicator. I picked up the Wing Pack and glanced at Zelos. He was sleeping peacefully and I smiled at him softly before tiptoeing out, realizing that that might be the last time I see him in person for a while. Resisting the urge to sigh, I shut the door softly behind me and made my way through the eerily quiet mansion and out to the courtyard, where Corrine was waiting for me.

He hopped up onto my shoulder. "Ready?"

I took a deep breath, releasing the Rheaird from the Wing Pack and climbing on, securing my feet into the straps as I'd seen Zelos do. Corrine wrapped his tails firmly around my neck, giving me a warm and fuzzy necklace and I hovered my finger over the start button.

"Yeah. You?" I asked.

Corrine nodded, his bell jingling softly. "Where do we go?"

"I'll fly out of Meltokio before calling Yuan." I said, starting the Rheaird, grateful for the near-silent sound of its propellers. Gripping the steering rod tightly, I tilted the machine up and pressed the middle speed button. The Rheaird shot into the sky, causing my stomach to stay behind in the courtyard. My knuckles were white on the steering rod and I heard Corrine squeak in my ear. Adjusting the angle, I leveled off above the city, looking down in awe at the view as I maneuvered in small circles, adjusting to the controls of the Rheaird.

Satisfied I had it figured out, I leveled out and headed away from the city. As I was nearing the edge of Meltokio, I set the Rheaird to a slower speed and pulled out my communicator, thankful that I had been there when Yuan had explained it to Zelos.

Pushing the necessary buttons, I only had to wait for a few seconds before Yuan's face appeared.

"Chosen One. This is a surprise." The blue-haired Sylvaranti smirked.

"There's been a change of plans. I'm the one coming to Sylvarant." I said.

Yuan raised an eyebrow. "I thought everyone was highly opposed to you risking yourself like that."

"I managed to… persuade them." I said.

"I see." Yuan said with a chuckle. "Well, then. I will start up the inter-dimensional transfer system. You will need to fly northwest from Meltokio. You will come to a much colder climate and several ice chunks will be floating in the water below you. On one such island I've made my Tethe'allan Base. It's just before the main ice island containing Flanoir. You'll notice it due to the blue light the transfer system will be emitting. At top speed, fly directly through that light, and you'll come out in my Sylvarant Base. Land and the guards will escort you inside, where I will give you my gathered intelligence on Sylvarant's Chosen. Do you understand?"

"Yes. I'll be there soon." I said, nodding.

"Good luck, Chosen One." Yuan said with a smirk before ending the connection.

"Well, wasn't he as unpleasant as always." I grumbled, angling the Rheaird northwest and upping the speed, replacing the communicator into my sash.

"He's wasn't being mean." Corrine said, tilting his head.

"Yeah, but I don't like that smirk of his. It's like he knows more than he's telling us." I said. "But that doesn't matter. As long as I get to Sylvarant, he can keep his secrets."

Corrine nodded. Soon I was flying over the vast expanse of water separating our continents. The stars were fading fast from the sky and the first rays of light were beginning to shine. My gut twisted. Zelos should be getting up soon…

A beeping sound suddenly came from my waist and I jumped a little, the Rheaird swerving slightly before I leveled it out, reaching for my communicator.

My heart lept to my throat. "It's Zelos! What do I do?"

"Answer it, Sheena! He's still your friend!" Corrine said.

Taking a deep breath, I slowed down the Rheaird once more and accepted the incoming message. Zelos's face appeared suddenly, and he didn't look happy.

"Sheena! What the hell do you think you're doing?" The redhead yelled.

"Did you read my note?" I asked, wincing.

"What the hell, Sheena! You can't do this! Come back to Meltokio right now!" Zelos said.

"I can't Zelos – I have to do this. I have to protect Tethe'alla – me. That's my job, not yours. I can't let you put yourself in danger for me." I said.

"Dammit, Sheena! You could get hurt! Or killed! Just come back, please!" Zelos pleaded.

"I'm sorry, Zelos." I shook my head.

"I'll go to the King." Zelos threatened.

"You won't – you'll get in trouble and you won't give them another reason to hate me." I said, forcing my voice to sound confident when really my body was shaking.

Zelos glared, then his face dropped, looking defeated. "Sheena, please…"

"Zelos, thank you so much for everything. You're more than a friend – you're my family. I love you." I said sincerely.

"Don't you dare!" Zelos snapped. "Don't talk like we won't see each other again! You are a freakin Mizuhoian ninja! You'll go and get this done and be back in flash. You. Will. Come. Back."

Weakly chuckling, I nodded. "Of course. I'm kickass, remember?"

"Damn right, you are." Zelos said, grinning. "Call me every day. More than once. Every hour. Where are you now?"

"I'm heading to Yuan's transfer system thing. I'll call you again when I get to Sylvarant, and do my best to talk to you often. At least three times a day, okay?" I answered.

Zelos sighed, and I saw him run a hand through his hair. "Okay. I guess I don't have much of a choice, do I?"

"Zelos, thank you!" I said.

"Yeah, yeah. You owe me, massively. Just wait 'til you get back!" He laughed.

"Whatever you want." I promised.

Zelos nodded. "I'll make myself scarce and stall for you as long as I can. Good luck. Contact me."

"Thank you." I said, eyes watering a bit, relieved Zelos wasn't mad at me.

"Get going already." Zelos chuckled. "And hey, Sheena? I love you too."

The connection closed and I shakily put the communicator away, wiping at my eyes.

"You okay Sheena?" Corrine asked.

"Yeah. Yeah, I am. Let's do this, Corrine." I said, determined to succeed quickly.

Resuming a faster speed, I flew away to the place I would cross between worlds as the sun began to its rise in the sky.

Soo... Sheena's going to Sylvarant. I realize some of you might have been expecting Zelos to go, but really I couldn't see Sheena letting him. This is something she feels she has to do herself.

Please please review and let me know what you thought! Thanks to everyone sticking with this story!

:D
