Me, Isaac, Mia, and Isaac fans: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.......
Link: Since you're back, let me wake them.
(I'm lying across the keyboards, drool sliding down to the keys. Isaac fans supporting themselves with pitch forks, shovels and burnt sticks...somehow...)
Link: HEY WAKE UP!!!
Me, Isaac, Mia, and Isaac fans: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.......
Link: How the? (Shrugs) Maybe I have something in my pack... (Pulls out a bag and starts routing through it) There must be something in here...
Isaac fan #1: (Sleepily) Isaac you're so brave.
Isaac fan #2: (Also sleepily) Isaac you're so awesome.
(Link digs deeper and Swords-A-Plenty magazine is thrown out. A poetry book is thrown followed by a rubber duck.) So that's where I put that thing... (Link pulls out his Ocarina and stuffs it in a different pocket. He pulls out a blow horn.) That'll do. (Presses the button making an ear piercing sound)
Me, Isaac, Mia, and Isaac fans: O___O
Link: Glad you're awake!
My ears.......the pain!!!!
Isaac fans: Chapter's done correct?
(I back away) Yes....don't hurt me!
Isaac fans: This is the writer....?
Link, Mia, and Isaac: Yup
Isaac fans: Pathetic. -__-
Okay, who drooled all over the keyboard?!
Link: You did.
Oh...well...uhh...disclaimer please! (Goes to find towels.)
Link: She doesn't own Golden Sun.
Chapter 5 Love
Time slowed down for Mia it seemed as Isaac fell. Her body pressed against the cold platform to get maximum reach. Both her hands extended out to grasp the falling adept's hand. She closed her eyes, the tears flowing down. She felt something solid in her grasp, and it returned her grasp. Mia opened her eyes to see Isaac's hand in her own. His body weight slowly dragged her forward, time was back in pace.
"Isaac you can't die!" Mia cried. "Don't leave me."
"Mia you can't hold me! You'll fall too!" Isaac yelled.
"I don't care! Isaac I love you too! I can't live with out you! I want to grow old with you. I want to meet your mother. I want to see the world or not with you!!" Mia spilled her emotions that she had kept inside. "Isaac you can't leave. I'll do anything I can to make sure you won't. I love you too much to have you die!" Mia braced her feet on the bricks. With all the strength she had she tugged. Her feet tried to find a foothold, but to no avail. Slowly she was joining Isaac.
Isaac watched Mia trying to pull him up. Something broke inside of him, releasing new energy. He couldn't, no, he wouldn't leave Mia. Not now not ever. Isaac lifted his right arm, pain seared through his body, but he was oblivious. Mia felt his arm dig into hers. He clutched her arm, so hard she felt new tears. She clenched her teeth holding back the pain. The Mercury Adept focused all of her attention on Isaac. Slowly she pulled him higher until his head showed above the edge. The Venus Adept grabbed the edge and yanked the rest of his body up.
In the next instant the two were panting heavily on the cold brick. "Isaac," Mia breathed. She knelt over him, shading his face. He was laughing, his eyes light. "Mia we did it! We did it!"
The healer didn't respond vocally. She pressed her lips on Isaac's. He accepted the long awaited kiss. The kiss he dreamed of. Reluctantly she pulled away, but as she did he pulled her back. Mia's soft, velvet lips creased Isaac's own, carefully and tenderly. They pulled away, their blue eyes soft, shining. Isaac suddenly noticed a familiar face looking down at them. "Felix?!"
"Am I interrupting?" Felix smiled a rare thing for him to do.
Mia blushed and turned away from him. Isaac also blushed. Felix shook his head silently applauding his childhood friend. "Isaac I need the Mars Star."
"Wha?"
"Please. I must have it or-" Felix was cut off by a feminine voice. Neither of the two could hear what she said but by the looks of it Felix was unhappy. "I just need it."
Isaac used his left, undamaged, arm to reveal the mythril bag he's carried ever since the fatal evening in Sol Sanctum. He glanced up at Felix. "I trust you Felix, but how are you going to get it?"
To answer his question Felix produced a rope. A figure with blue hair in strange foreign clothes grasped the end of it, along with a man with white hair. The other Venus Adept shimmied down, landing lightly on his feet. He gave a nod in Mia's direction, and then took the Mars Star. Stuffing in his tunic Felix made his way up.
Isaac stood with the help of Mia. A blue aura surrounded him as she cast Pure Ply. The adept gave a sigh, his right arm returning itself to the right position. All of his aches and pains left his body, leaving Isaac refreshed. "I could've-" Mia's mouth ceased any other words.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Garet watched as Karst, Agatio, Felix, and the adept called Picard leave. If he had enough strength he would've gone after all four and killed them, but he didn't. Besides he even if he could've, Jenna would never forgive him for killing her brother.
"Garet you don't look so well," Jenna teased producing a green liquid.
"Nice to see you too," Garet grunted as she pressed the Potion to his lips.
Kraden pulled out of his pouch a glass vile, spilling his notes in the process. "Oh no! My notes!" He quickly gave the vile to Sheba and then kneeled to gather the pieces of paper. The Wind Adept shook her head and made her way toward Ivan. She laid his head on her knee, opened the vile, and let the Water of Life enter his mouth. Ivan's face regained its color, his eyes lightened. He blinked a few times before seeing her. "Sheba?"
"Hello." She smiled. "Feeling better?"
"Life is always better then death." He emphasized on always.
Ivan and Garet turned to hear, "How about some rope?"
"Isaac!" Both got up to see their friend fine and healthy. "Isaac you fox, you outwit death!" Garet laughed until hit in the head with Jenna's Glower Staff. "Garet you oaf, they need a rope!"
"Yeah, yeah...." he grabbed the rope left by Felix. "Here it comes!" The rope danged in front of Isaac and his hands clasped it.
"Mia grab on to my back." Isaac commanded. She did so, holding gently yet firm. The Venus Adept made his way up slowly. Garet, Jenna, Sheba, and Ivan held on to the other end of the rope. It slid slightly burning Jenna's, Sheba's and Ivan's hands.
"I wish Picard was here," Jenna muttered, and heaved. Finally a golden head and blue head appeared. Garet held out his other hand, which Isaac took. With one final heave Isaac and Mia were safely on the upper platform.
"Isaac are you feeling okay?" Ivan asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Isaac said, his eyes drifted towards Mia. "Mia helped me up."
"Isaac!" Jenna yelled.
"Jenna?" Isaac said. "Jenna!" He quickly got up and hugged his childhood friend. "Are you okay? Why did Felix need the Mars Star? How-"
"Isaac," Mia placed a hand on his shoulder. "Please save the questions for later."
"Yeah you're right." Isaac stood up, sliding his hand around her waist. "Like always," and planted a kiss on her head.
Garet gave a whistle, "You go Isaac!"
Ivan laughed at this, Sheba seemed lost. "Ivan, what is the big deal? I see that Isaac and Mia are in love, but what is the big deal?"
"To make it short, Isaac couldn't tell Mia how he felt," Ivan pointed to them in name. "It seems that they opened their hearts to each other," replied to her.
Jenna was the only one, not thrilled. Her heart shattered at this sight before her. As soon as sadness entered her heart, so did rage.
"Jenna are you okay?" Sheba noticed.
"I'm fine I'm...I'm just worried about Felix," Jenna said. It was the truth or at least half of the truth. The other half was she couldn't stand to see Isaac with his arms around...her...who ever she was. "I'm going to go check on them." She ran off before another word was said.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Isaac, when you were hanging you said something about a gift...?" Mia stated.
"That's right! I completely forgot!" Isaac dug in his tunic searching for the bracelet. "I found it!" In his hand was the silver bracelet. Its sapphire jewels glinted.
"Oh Isaac, it's beautiful!" Mia took it and placed it on her wrist.
"Well, I had to find something worthy of your beauty." Isaac smiled.
"Isaac flattery will get you no where," Mia scolded.
"Oh really," he tried to wrap his arms around her but the healer had moved.
"Not going to get me that easily."
"Don't I get a thank you?"
"Of course," Mia planted a kiss on him. "How's that?"
"Perfect." Isaac whispered. Just as they were going to kiss again Garet's voice stopped them, "Did you guys forget about Felix and the others?"
"Sorry Garet," Isaac apologized. His friend was not on for patience. "Let's go."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Jerks they got away!" Garet pointed out. Felix, Picard, Jenna, Sheba, Isaac, Mia, Ivan, and Garet were gathered on the top on the Jupiter Lighthouse.
"Felix. Jenna." Isaac stepped forward, his hand on the Gaia Blade. If he had to fight he would. Garet and Mia followed their leader.
"Isaac." Jenna said. Felix, Picard, and Sheba gripped their own weapons, but Ivan had other plans. He ran between Isaac's group and Felix's group. "Ivan what are you doing?" Mia asked.
The young member shook his head, "Look neither of us are in state to fight. We should head back to Contigo and refresh ourselves."
Isaac lowered his hand the others did the same. "Ivan's right. Felix met us back at Contigo, and don't think you can of run off again." The elevator on the right rose up. Isaac's group boarded the elevator, and it sank down.
