Chapter 3
A/N: Sorry for not updating in ages. " Been busy with school and other things, but I'm hoping I can write some more now that I'm on break.
Err, trying to get back into the story again. You'll have to live through another short chapter. Sorry!

Luin was about a full day's travel away from Asgard. And due to Genis's trip to the General Store, the sun was already high in the sky by the time they could set off. An impatient Lloyd awaited at the entrance to the city that Raine admired for it's beautiful history and the ruins that accompanied them. More the ruins than the history though.
"Ahh, a hard day of traveling…complete!" Zelos proclaimed as he stretched out and leaned back onto a soft bed of dirt.
Lloyd scoffed at him. "If it was really a hard day of traveling, we would be a lot closer to Luin by now!"
A stern look from a pair of cold eyes silenced both of them immediately. "Is it really polite to argue like this in front of a guest? Tom may have been the host back at the inn, but now we're hosting him. Change your attitudes! And as for you, Lloyd! I'm disappointed in you. I thought you had matured from the time you left Iselia, but it seems as if you're still the same kid that fell asleep every day in my class. Any more immaturity and I'll have to send you back to Asgard!"
"But Professor Raine…"
"No buts! Just behave yourself and for Yggdrassill's sake, no more arguing!"
"Yes Professor Raine…"
Genis stood to the side, chuckling under his breath as he listened in on the conversation. He just couldn't resist seeing the swordsman being teased and lectured by his sister again. Just like she had mentioned, it was just like the times back when Raine taught them in Iselia. The light-haired boy sat on a log and attempted to recall the beauty of the sunset just an hour ago. Slowly, he dozed off into a deep sleep, his dreams accompanied by a bright red sun.
The boy woke with a jolt, only a single thought on his mind. Fire!
