Zelos stared blankly at Kratos. "How the heck did you get here?" he asked.

Kratos stared back. "I'd love to ask you the same question, Chosen."

"...wait!" Anna exclaimed. "So this--" she pointed to Zelos "--is Zelos? The Zelos Wilder, Chosen of Tethe'alla?"

"...I see I'm popular over here, too!" Zelos beamed. Anna squealed.

"Hey, hot stuff!" Lala said as she started acting goofy around Zelos. "You wanna go out tonight?"

Zelos stared at the yellow beast glomping him. "What the heck is this thing...?"

Kratos sighed, "That's Lala. I think you've got another fangirl, Zelos..."

"I really don't want her as one..."

Dipsy and Tinky-Winky bowed to Zelos. Kratos really needed to stop watching his soaps here. "Pleaseure to meet you," Dipsy said politely. "I'm Dipsy, and that's Tinky-Winky."

Zelos leaned over toward Kratos. "Did Mithos and Yuan come up with these names when they were drunk?"

Kratos chuckled. "That's what I thought when I first heard their names."

Zelos put his arm around Kratos' arm. "Great minds think alike, I guess!"

Anna sighed. "Sure, why not..."

---

Zelos got himself situated with his current predicament and what had just transpired.

"Zelos," Anna asked as they finished bringing him up to date, "what where you doing before you got here? Were you hitting on some lady friend? Possibly Sheena...?"

Zelos stared at Anna. "Yes and no," he answered. "I was hitting on some girl I know, but it wasn't Sheena. Actually, I haven't done that in quite some time..."

"Ooooh Kraaaaaatos! You're on TV again!" Lala could be heard from the other side of the room, where she was watching some random TV show. It was 'Tales of Symphonia: The Animation'. She was foaming and squealing at the same time.

"I am getting really sick of that thing," Anna said, annoyed.

"I don't even get what she is," Zelos chimed.

"I don't want to be here," Kratos muttered to himself.

"Oi! Colette!" A familiar voice was ringing throughout the house. Kratos walked over to where Lala and Tinky-Winky were sitting. A boy in red and a girl with a coat-looking thing were on the Tinky-Winky station.

"It's Lloyd! And Colette! What the...?" Kratos was confused.

Anna followed him, and plopped herself on the couch. "I simply LOVE this game!"

Kratos looked at Anna oddishly. "Game...?"

"Yeah! Tales of Symphonia! It's got you and Zelos and Lloyd and everyone!"

Kratos was obviously intrigued by this. "Mithos?"

"Yup!"

"Yuan?"

"Yup!"

"Those freaky little people I can't remember their names? Like Dorr or something or other?"

"Yes! But I hate them!"

"Me too."

Anna laughed. "It's...well," she tried to explain, "it's a game of what happened between the oracle in Iselia to when you got shipped off to Derris-Kharlan."

"Wait," Zelos interrupted. "This whole game thing I understand. But Kratos, you had to leave on Derris-Kharlan, right?" Kratos nodded. Zelos continued, "...so why are you here? How'd you even get here?"

"I'd love to know that, too," Anna agreed.

Kratos didn't answer. He couldn't come up with an answer. "Uhm," he started, "I don't know. If I knew, I would've probably went back by now. Shouldn't you have an explantion, Zelos?"

Zelos stared at Kratos. "Well, I believe that the mind is playing an inconceivable image in our brains, making it sound legitamite. However, this also could be because of molecular destruction of our bodies, and they reconstructed one little nanoatom by one little nanoatom, and we have arrived in our current area of space and time."

Everyone stared at Zelos. He was apparently too smart for them.

Zelos blushed. "Well, trying to dumb it up, this either could be a hallucination, or we were somehow brought here. I don't know what inconceivable even means."

There were then just random sounds of "Oh!" and "Stop being like Genis, Zelos" and "You just put Lloyd to shame." (Guess who came up with the last two?)

Kratos coughed. "I think I'll take explanation number two."

"This is too good to be a hallucination!" Anna squealed. "I hate Zelos, but still! I love it that he's here! And Kratos, well..." Anna blushed. "...I am a fangirl, after all."

Kratos said nothing. "Hey!" Zelos whined. "Why do you hate me? All the women wuv me wots!" He started hugging himself.

"That's exactly why: You're so full of yourself," was Anna's reply.

Kratos sighed. "...are we going to find a solution?"

Anna sighed, too. "I guess so. I don't think you could stand the wrath of Lala and Po for long."

"But I thought Po left on his Oscar-Weiner-mobile!" Zelos said.

"Yeah, but he'll be back," Lala said ominously. "Po always comes back."

Just then, on the TV, there was a commercial that announced a new brand of bread. "Introducing Kratoast! A part of your daily Tales of Symphonia breakfast!"

Kratos stared at the TV. There was a slice of bread with his head on there.

There was also silence.


This chapter was particularly useless, and just typed up because I wanted a small portion of seriousness in here. And Anna IS A KRATOS FANGIRL! Just think what'll happen next...hehehe.

I don't even know what inconceivable means or how it's spelled! Imagine that!

So review now, or expect a loaf of Kratoast in your shopping cart the next time you shop at Jewel! And there will be no place to put it back! So you'll have to buy it for $100!
