Author's Note: I'm back again; this update should be a little large than normal. Basically, it is just Isaac getting to know the other mercenaries. Then I start the major part of the story, hope you like it and I love reviews

Isaac had awoken quite early that day. Well…his definition of early. Apparently, to the mercenaries, his idea of early was their idea of sleeping in. He walked out of his tent and saw almost all of the mercenaries working.

"Crap, apparently I need to start to wake up earlier to beat these mercenaries up." He said to himself.

Ike noticed him and strode over to him. "Took your sweet time getting up?" Isaac laughed. "Well I'm not used to waking up as early as you are. I never have had a reason to." "Don't worry to much about it, you'll get used to it." Isaac grabbed his sword and tomes. "So is there anything I can do?" Ike looked behind him at the progress of the troops. "No, just pack up, we will be moving along soon." Ike ran over to Soren, probably to check about something that frankly, Isaac didn't care about.

A bit later

Soren was walking around, aimlessly it seemed to Isaac. So he approached him. "So, you're the tactician? You sure don't look it." Soren cast him a hating glance, but Isaac persisted. "Oh, a little mad are we? Why would that be?" Soren stopped and spun around to face Isaac. "Frankly, I don't like you." He said angrily. Isaac, with playfulness still in his voice asked "Because I attacked your commander?" Soren ignored him and just walked off. "Well…isn't he moody."

About two hours later

Isaac had sat down randomly to enjoy the scenery. Suddenly a shadow appeared in front of him. He got up and faced a large laguz. " Oh, one of the laguz. Judging by your structure your…. Mordecai?" "Yes I am beroc. What might your name be?" Isaac laughed. "Word doesn't get around here quickly, my name is Isaac." Mordecai started to eye Isaac strangely "oh, sorry Mordecai, I remembered, I have to be somewhere." Isaac dashed off. "Where have I seen him before?" Mordecai wondered.

30 minutes after that

Lethe was in her tent, thinking about the new human. He looked so familiar, and yet…not. Isaac walked in. "Hello, I've taken it upon myself to meet as many of the members of the mercenaries as possible." Lethe turned to him. "I'm not part of this…human group. I am just an escort." She snarled. "Either way, I just wanted to say hi" Isaac was about out of the tent when Lethe said "I've seen you before." Isaac turned to her and smiled "Of course you have, you saw me last night." She growled "That's not wha-" but Isaac was already gone.

dinner time

Isaac sat down next to some skinny girl for dinner. The entire dinner was quite uncomfortable for him. Soren was watching him out of the corner of his eye, and the Laguz started at him almost the entire time. The only way it could possibly be more uncomfortable would be if someone next to him was chugging down their food. Just his luck he ended up sitting to the one person who did just that. How could that damn girl stuff all that food down?

about 3 hours after dinner

Awhile after that he immediately hurried over to his tent. The quicker this day would be over the quicker he could hide more the next day. He was ready to fall asleep when someone entered his tent.

"Who is it?" Isaac asked. "You know who, you can see me." Someone said in a disguised voice. "he got up from his bed. "Truthfully, I do not, but I can find out who easily." The person replied "Of course you can. It shouldn't be hard for someone who can see in the dark." Isaac, sensing the ruse, grabbed his tome instead and lit a small fire on his fingertip. "There, now I can see just fine." But the person was gone. "It seems someone is on to me. I should be more careful" he thought.

Author's note: Yeah…it is kind of obvious now, but there is more to it, trust me.
