Lloyd: SilverMoon doesn't own ToS or Namco. If she did...-shudders-
Me: ......
Lloyd: Onto the story. -sighs-

Lloyd sat up in the white room and saw that his other self was currently not in there. He let out a sigh of relief and stood up from the couch he was lying on. He walked over towards the door and noted that it was locked when he tried to turn the handle. "Stupid other self...." He muttered and walked back over to the couch.

Recently, his other self had brought in a bookshelf, hoping that Lloyd could actually learn something while he was in here. Lloyd, on the other hand, actually did want to read some of the books on the bookshelf. It seemed pretty interesting.

So when he got back to the couch, he picked up the book he was reading and continued from where he had left off. The cover of the book was a blood red color with gold on the edges of it. The title was, "The History of the Kharlan War".

He was just about to get to the most gruesome part of all when he heard the door slowly creak open. When he looked up, his other had just walked into the room.

"Oh, so I see your awake." 'Lloyd'(1) said with a tone of teasing distaste. "And I thought you were going to sleep the whole day away so I wouldn't have to hear your voice." He let out a small chuckle and walked over to where Lloyd was sitting. "Oh my god! Your actually reading!" He made a surprised face and then sat down next to Lloyd.

"You know, sometimes I just wanna through you off a building." Lloyd said while glaring at the man sitting next to him. His other just laughed loudly and stared at the page in the book that Lloyd was on. It said something about a man being stabbed fourty-six times before the half-elf was through with him. Or something like that. The other looked back up at Lloyd.

"Your face is hilarious when you're trying to concentrate." Lloyd looked up at the comment and glared hatefully at 'Lloyd'.

"I'm gonna kill you." Lloyd stuck his bookmark in the book and closed it before bashing his other on the head. He repeatedly bashed him on the head until his other half stood up and ran out of the room, the door automatically locking behind him.

When he got outside, Yggdrasil was waiting for him. He bowed and then stood. "Is everything set?" He asked in a low tone of voice.

"Yes. Shall we do it now?"

"Of course."

--------------------

Kratos sighed and brushed a bead of sweat off his forhead. Walking through the desert was probably the worst part of finding the Dragon's Den. Most of all, he had know idea where the den was in the first place. He muttered a curse under his breath and then noticed that he was falling behind. He walked a little faster and quickly caught up with the rest of the group.

"So Kratos, do you know where this 'Dragon's Den' is?" Raine asked in a skeptical tone.

"Well, I've concluded that it must be somewhere in the desert, seeing as that's the hottest part of the world." Kratos said while scanning the area over with his eyes. "So, probably somewhere in this area."

"Colette!" Genis shouted as the angel girl lowered herself to the ground. She had been searching up in the skies to see if she could find anything that might be suitable for a dragon to rest in. "Find anything?" Genis asked with a hopeful look.

"Actually, there's a mountain just over that hill of sand. I saw something like a hole in it but didn't want to go any further, sorry." She said, wings disappearing behind her back.

"We shall head there then." Regal said. The rest of them nodded and they set off towards the mountain.

--------------------

'Lloyd' walked over towards the stone embedded into the ground and stood on it. He spread his arms out and began chanting, "Power from the heavens, strength from Hell. Bring back my soul, reunite it with its body." He paused, going through his memories, finding the rest of the chant, "I command you, Ressurect!!" He shouted taking the real Lloyd's exsphere and placing it in the keycrest on his left hand.

Then, everything went white, and he couldn't tell where he was. Soon though, he would be back where he wanted to be. Soon.

--------------------

Lloyd stood up from the couch, having finished the book and was about to place it back on the shelf when he felt a searing pain shoot up his spine and into his chest. The book fell to the floor with a thump as Lloyd lost control of his body.

White light flashed in front of his eyes before everything went black, and he couldn't tell where he was. Little did he know, he would be back where he wanted to be. Soon.(2)

--------------------

Kratos set Lloyd's body on the sandy ground. They had stopped to rest under a tree. Genis was preparing lunch for them while everyone else either rested or played in the nearby oasis.

Suddenly, he felt the body twitch. Then it twitched again. Soon, it seemed as if Lloyd were having a seizure. "Everyone! Come here quickly!" Kratos shouted while watching the odd scene in front of him.

Everyone ran up and stared in shock at what was happening to Lloyd. Then suddenly, as quick as it had started, it stopped. And a shallow breathing came from Lloyd's throat.

Then, his eyes opened. The most shocking moment of all for Kratos. But the scarey thing was, they were red. Blood red.

--------------------

Lloyd opened his eyes slowly, not wanting the searing pain to come back. When his eyes finally adjusted to the darkness, he noticed that he was in an empty room. Almost like the other one yet...black.

He saw a light appear in front of him and stared in wonder as the vision became clearer. It was of his dad, kneeling over him, and everyone else staring with worry in their eyes in the background.

Then it hit him. He was seeing through his eyes. Yet, not fully controling the body. Then, his father's eyes went wide, and he jumped back, as if dodging something. Then Lloyd saw the edge of the blade from a sword. His dad was being attacked! And most of all, by him!

--------------------

Kratos jumped back, just barely dodging the sword that was aimed for his throat. Another swipe from the sword, another dodge from Kratos. Why was his son attacking him? He dodged again, but not quick enough this time, for his cheek now had a small cut on it. It started to bleed, but was suddenly stopped by a warm green light. Kratos realized that Raine or someone had casted First Aid.

He dodged again and then grabbed his son by the shoulders. "What did you do with my son?" He said with a deadly glare that darkened by the second plastered on his face.

"Ooo, I never liked it when you were mad. It scared me." The voice that came out was just like Lloyd's, yet somehow colder.

"Who are you?" Kratos said, tightening his grip on the teen beneath him.

"Well, I'm your son." 'Lloyd' gave Kratos a smile and then with a force that Kratos didn't know Lloyd had, pushed him off him and stood up. "Well, goodbye for now!" He smiled and then teleported to Hell knows where.

Kratos stared in shock at where Lloyd used to be and felt a feeling of hoplessness.

Me: ....T_T
Lloyd: -sigh- Are you okay?
Me: Yeah..sure...
Lloyd: Look, I'm sure the readers don't mind.
Me: Really?
Lloyd: Yeah...
Me: YAY!! -jumps up and down happily-
Lloyd: Okay...um...review please?
Me: Word count was.....1,543!! SHORT!! T_T
