After a night of flying, the twosome was ready for a rest.

But the broom had other plans.

"What the heck is happening!?" yelled Seles.

"I don't know! Maybe you overused your mana and… That's It!"

"What's it?" Shouted Seles.

"You've never used an exsphere, this is your first long trip, and we've been going all night! Of course your mana is low!"

"And that means?"

"We're going down!"

Right on cue, the wind died down, the jewels on Seles's hat and gloves stopped glowing, and the two fell right to the ground. Well, almost.

Fifteen feet before impact, before Seles knew what was going on, Mithos had grabbed her hand. In a rush of the rainbow, Seles and Mithos landed without any damage.

"What… what the heck… what happened!?" said Seles, regaining breath. Then she caught sight of Mithos.

"HOLY MOTHER OF MANA!!"

On his back were a pair of multi-color wings. Seles, having not quite gotten over the shock of the landing, fell over.

"You okay?" asked Mithos, sitting down.

Seles looked him in the eye… and she suddenly started laughing!

Mithos continued watching her laugh… And a feeling started fighting its way into his mouth.

A half-smile finally found itself onto his face, then a full smile. Soon he was grinning. Before Mithos knew what was going on…

"Ahahahahahaha!!"

He laughed and laughed. His stomach was hurting from laughing so hard, but he didn't want to stop.

When he finally got control of his laughter, he looked up at Seles, who had stopped laughing as well. He lost it again.

Seles was wearing the goofiest face! Her eyes were crossed, her tong was sticking out, and her red hair was sticking up all over the place. Another fit of laughter took place.

After ten minutes of laugher, the two finally managed to get themselves under control to a degree.

"So, Mithos. How on earth did you get wings?" asked Seles. You could hear giggles creeping into her voice.

"Well, you see…" he broke into a giggling fit. "It's a really confusing story…"

"We are all listening."

"Ha ha ha… oh snap!" said Mithos.

Seles looked around. The voice had come from a woman with a fin on her head, a blue body, red eyes, and purple hair. She looked kind, like the water.

Next to the woman were three young girls. One of the trio had green hair and six gold and silver angel-like wings. The second one had purple hair and blue and purple butterfly wings. The third had pink hair and magenta bird wings. They looked playful, like the wind.

Next to them was a woman with blond/green hair, a rainbow like halo, and a very skimpy top. She was floating on a crescent moon. She looked patient, like the moonlight.

Near her was a woman with black hair, blue skin, black marks, and combat boots. She was cold, like the ice.

The final one was more animal than human. This one had gold fur, the body of a large fox, several sea green tails, and a bell around its neck.

"Uh, what the heck is going on?" asked Seles.

"That's what we'd like to know." Said 'Ice cold.'

"Just…let me tell my story before you hurt me…" He looked very nervous.

"Better make it quick. I'm in the mood to give someone a good thrashing." Said 'Ice cold.'

"Celsius, please. Let him speak before you unleash your anger." Said 'Water kind.'

"Yeah! Let's at least learn who that girl is!" said one of the girls of 'Wind playful.'

"Fine."

"Well, I guess I should start this with introductions, right?" asked Mithos.

"Yes, you should." Said 'Moonlight patient'.

"Okay… Summon Spirits, this is my friend, Seles. Seles, these are the summon spirits: Undine, the water spirit; Sylph, or Sephie, Yutis, and Fairess, the wind spirit; Celsius, the ice spirit; Luna, the light spirit, or if you to be specific, the moon spirit; and the last one, I don't know."

"That's Verius! She's the summon spirit of heart! She's new." Said Fairess. (A/N: I could never see Verius or Corrine as male.)

"Cool. How new?" asked Mithos.

"Six months in this form, ten years in her earlier form." Said Luna.

"That is new!"

"Now to explain to us, and to Seles, what you are doing here." Said Undine.

"Well, to start us off…" Mithos unfastened his shirt, and Seles saw a pattern of metal, with a large gem in the middle, on his chest.

"Whoa, What the heck?"

"Cruxis Crystal. Stops aging process, gives you amazing strength, and makes you grow wings."

"You've heard of the Kharlon war, correct?" And the summon spirits and Mithos began their long explanation.

"So, let me get this straight. You really are Mithos the hero. Or maybe, Mithos the fallen hero."

"Yep."

"And your older sister is the phony goddess."

"Right again."

"You've been alive for four thousand years."

"You got it."

"And you are supposed to be dead."

"Bingo."

"And your body got cloned by Sybak, and your spirit found this body."

"Uh-huh."

"And I thought I had I weird life."

"Hey, it could be worse. You could have the life of Zelos."

"Huh?"

"I mean, think about it. His parents didn't love him or each other, he grew up in constant fighting, none of his relatives could live with him… must have been a really rough."

"Y… yeah, I… I guess…"

Okay… I feel bad…

"Well…" said Yutis.

"What's up?" asked Mithos.

"We're trying to decide whether to let you live or not." Said Undine.

"What ever you choose, I'll be fine with it." Said Mithos.

"Really?"

"Yeah, just let Seles go. She had nothing to do with this."

"Okay girls, I think we should vote on this one." Said Sephie.

"I agree." Said Undine.

"Okay. Majority rules." Said Celsius.

"Because I am the neutral spirit, I will count votes." Said Verius.

"Okay."

"Everyone, close your eyes." Said Verius.

Everyone did.

"Undine, raise your left hand if he should face death, your right hand if he should live. Do not put your hand down until I say so." Said Verius.

Verius did the same for every summon spirit.

"Everyone, open your eyes."

Seles looked at the verdict. Undine had her right hand up, Sephie had her right hand up, Yutis had he left hand up, Fairess had both hands raised half way, Celsius had he left hand up, and Luna had right hand up.

"And that means that Mithos lives." Said Verius.

"Hooray!" Seles yelled.

"About as big as event when Verius was reborn as a Summon spirit." Said Undine.

"That reminds me… Verius, how did you get to be a summon spirit?" asked Mithos.

"My previous form, Corrine, was a man made summon spirit. Corrine was bound to another summoner. That summoner went to Volt. Corrine was killed." Said Verius.

"What… happened to that summoner?" said Mithos, almost fearing the answer.

"She is going to get married in a week."

"Wait… you mean that summoner is…"

"Sheena the ultimate summoner? Yes."

Seles felt the need to ask something. "Who is this 'Sheena' getting married to?"

"The former Pervert, Zelos Wilder."

My Brother?!?

"Thy can give you an invitation to the wedding if thou wishes to go." Said Luna.

"Well, it seams like a good plan. You wanna come, Seles?" said Mithos

Seles thought about it… and the more she thought about, better she liked the idea. She could check up on her brother and her sister-in-law to be, Mithos could find out what his old friends and rivals are up to, they could both find out what had happened at the abbey…

"Okay! It sounds like a great plan!"

"Alright!" said Mithos.

"You know what?"

"What?"

"I suddenly fell like traveling. I've been on that inland for most of my life, and now I wanna be going places. I don't wanna sit around any longer."

"That sounds kind of fun. We have a week before the wedding, let's enjoy it!"

"Yes! Where should go first?"

"Uh... good question. Where are now, anyways?" asked Mithos.

Fairess spoke up. "That's easy! You landed on the balacruf mausoleum!"

"That would explain why landed around the summon spirits. So, then the closest city would be..."

"Asgard. It's only a few miles away." said Yutis.

"Great. Let's go, Mithos!" said Seles.

"Wait. Before you go, We have something for you, Seles." Said Undine.

"Huh?"

The summon spirits aimed their energy at a spot. The energy combined and floated down to Seles.

When the light died down, Seles hand a beautiful pendent in her hand. It had a sapphire, an opal, an aquamarine, a topaz, and a piece of rose quartz in a star pattern, set in silver. It was all tied onto a length of white ribbon.

"Wow…"

"That pendent will allow you to cast faster, fly farther, and gives you stronger spells." Said Celsius.

"Thank you." She tied the pendant around her neck.

"Okay, it's time for you two to be going."

"Ready to go, Mithos?"

"Heck yes!"

"Then let's get going!"

"See you all later!" said Fairess.

"Take care." Said Sephie.

"Good luck." said Undine.

"Have fun!" called Yutis.

The spirits continued waving.

"So, we're really gonna do this. We are gonna travel the new world." said Seles.

"A fallen angel and a wind mage. What a combo." said Mithos.
