Me: so…meep…
Dark: So she's actually back.
Me: shut up Dark. I cut this in half so I could get it done.
Dark: Really? And what about that gap between your last update?
Me: I couldn't bring myself to write. But I'm writing now. So do the disclaimer.
Dark: Miss lazy doesn't own Tales of Symphonia or any of its characters. She does own Twilight, Sol, and I.
Me: Thank you! Now let the chapter start!
Angelic Rebirth Ch.9
"Why?" we had all woken up and were now trying to decide where we would go next. Marta had suggested we go see the Chosen. I was wondering the same question that Emil had just asked.
"I still haven't thanked her for her help yesterday." She replied.
"Let's start at the mayor's house." I said.
"Yeah." Emil answered. Marta just nodded her head. We walked to the mayor's house in relative silence. We got there and saw Colette talking to the mayor. We walked up to them.
"Thank you for saving me." Marta said not making eye contact with the Chosen.
"I didn't get to thank you either. Thank you for your help." Emil said with more confidence.
"Yeah. Thanks!" I smiled.
"You came after me just to tell me that? I'm so happy! Please call me Colette. And you are?" Colette seemed rather energetic.
"I'm Marta."
"I'm Emil."
"I'm Twilight"
"Marta, Emil, and Twilight? Great, now we can be friends." Colette cheered. Marta took a surprised step back.
"You're joking, right?" she said.
"Oh, right. Okay." The chosen looked down.
"Excuse me, Chosen One." The mayor kindly interrupted our conversation.
"Oh, yes. Please leave the matter of the stone dais to me; I'll have a look right now." Colette said we all tilted our heads.
"Dais?"
"Oh, well, I'm sure you noticed how the wind in this town is strong, right? I was wondering if the stone dais might have something to do with it." Colette explained.
"A monster calling itself the Summon Spirit of Wind appeared there in the past. The Chosen believes it might be connected with all the gusts we've been experiencing." The mayor added.
"But if you stay here much longer the Vanguard will come back for you." I told her.
"Ever since the world regeneration, so many strange things are happening throughout the world. Since I'm the chosen of regeneration…no even if I wasn't, I still want to help in whatever way I can." Colette stated with a fire in her eyes.
"You're really amazing." Emil said.
"No, I'm not. Both of you tried to save that boy, right? It's the same thing." Colette said.
"We can't be friends, but I think I can help you." Marta said taking a small step towards the chosen.
"Oh?" Colette asked.
"She saved my life so I owe her." Marta told us.
"Then I'll help too." Emil agreed.
"Me too!" I cheered with a grin.
"You can refuse us but we're still going with you either way." Marta told Colette.
"Not at all, I'd love to have to come with me! Thank you, all of you!" Colette cheered.
"To the stone dais then." Emil said.
"Right. Let's go!" Colette and I ran off to the dais with Emil and Marta following us with slightly less enthusiasm. We got to the stairs to the ruins long before Emil and Marta got there. We waited for them to arrive.
"You two are slow." I mumbled when they arrived.
"Come on. We should go check out the dais now." Colette said.
"Right." We all agreed. We walked up all the steps to the stone dias and stood on top. It was amazing. You could see for miles uninterrupted.
"Nothing here looks out of the ordinary." I eventually mumbled.
"Maybe your summon spirit would be able to tell." Colette said.
"Our summon spirit?" Marta asked. Tenebrae appeared next to us.
"I believe she means me." He said.
"Yes, you, doggie! I'm talking about you!" Colette told him.
"I am neither a 'doggie' nor summon spirit. I am Centurion Tenebrae. You may call me Tenebrae." Tenebrae replied.
"All right, Tenebie. So do you notice anything strange?" Colette asked. I smiled at the nickname.
"No, not especially. And my name isn't Tenebie" Tenebrae told her.
"Colette doesn't miss a beat." Emil observed amazed.
"Yeah." Marta replied. I burst out laughing.
"Hahahahahahahahahaha!" It was just too funny. Tenebie.
"Twilight stop it!" Tenebie said.
"Make me." I taunted, still laughing.
Hahahahahahahahahaha! Sial joined.
Stop it you two! Gale scolded.
"Make us!" Sial hissed.
"Look out!" Emil called. I jumped out of the way just as a mass of feathers flew passed me.
"Finally! Some action!" I cheered as I brought out my spear.
Me: Let's cut it off there.
Sol: WHAT?
Me: I'm back! ^.^ Expect another update soon…like maybe even tomorrow!
