Me: No no no! Stick to the stuff you know! If you wanna be cool, follow one simple rule, don't mess with the flow, no no! Stick to the status quo!

Lloyd: she's still on a sugar rush but she insisted on another chapter so (sigh) she's writing another chapter today.

Me: "It's like I'm being tied to the hood of a yellow rental truck being packed in with fertilizer and fuel oil, pushed over a cliff by a suicidal Mickey Mouse!"

Lloyd: Told you, sugar rush.

Me: oh, I found "Let's get it started" on my MP3 player!

Lloyd: oh no!

Me: "everybody, everybody! Getting' to it, getting' stupid! Let's get it started In here!"

Lloyd: Um…ok. Jen Rem doesn't own ToS or FF, only Tiamatt, the Oblivion Blade and Kayla's character.

"Kayla! Get your mind out of the gutter!" I yelled at the dark haired girl who sat in front of me, a maniacal look in her eyes.

"Oh but that wouldn't be like me now would it!" She grinned. Suddenly, I had an idea.

"You're just jealous!" I smirked. Kayla looked shocked and looked down at her lap.

"I am not." She replied, not looking up.

"Kayla, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you." Kayla still wouldn't look at me. "I'm sure theres someone out there for you." I said trying to cheer my best friend up.

"You really think so?" She asked, looking up and giving me a small smile. I nodded and Kayla smile got a little bigger. "thanks Imoto."

"You really can't call me little sister anymore." I joked. "I'm older then you now."

"You think I care! You'll always be Imoto to me!" the dragoness smirked, pushing me, causing me to fall onto my injured left wing and scream in pain. "Imoto! I'm sorry. I forgot! I didn't mean to!" Kayla apologized as Kratos rushed back, alerted by my cry.

"I know." I answered through clinched teeth. "Just by a little more careful sis."

"Tiamatt are you ok?" Kratos asked, already beginning to examine my wing for further injury.

"I'm fine. It just hurts." I said, feeling the pain ease away as he used First Aid.

"I'm sorry." Kayla muttered again.

"Don't be so hard on yourself. You don't know your own strength yet and never really knew about the injury anyways." I smiled at her and could tell she was relieved. She then looked in interest as Kratos continued casting First Aid.

"That has to be time consuming to cast spells like that." The dragoness commented.

"It can be, but the more practice you have with a spell, the fast you can use it." Kratos explained as he changed the bandages and sat beside me. "I guess we'll go without a fire tonight." He sighed, seeing that he had only gathered a couple pieces of wood.

"No we won't!" Kayla leapt to her feet. "I'll go find more wood to make up for hurting sis ok?" Without waiting for an answer, Kayla ran off in search of firewood.

"She is strange." Kratos muttered to himself.

"Yeah she is. But didn't you consider me strange at first?" I agreed, leaning against him. "I missed her though. She was my only real friend back home. More of a sister then anything."

"What is she? I remember you saying to have a human form." Kratos asked, carefully putting an arm around me.

"She's a dragon. Basically one like from Tiamatt's world since those one can also take a human form." I explained, starting to feel drowsy as I lay my head on his shoulder.

"Tiamatt, are you also a dragon?" Kratos asked me. I sat up quick, shocked from his question.

"No not really. What makes you say that?" I wondered.

"Your wings, they're dragon wings so you'd have to be at least part dragon correct?" Kratos replied.

"It's from the experiments." I said sadly. "Hojo injected me with Dragon DNA to see if it would cause a mutation after I was recaptured." I could feel the tears form from the painful memory. "I have never been in so much pain as that except when my heart broke the night Sephiroth betrayed the world." Kratos' eyed glazed over again like they always did when he was deep in thought.

"I'm sorry." He said softly, wrapping his arms around me. I welcomed the embrace but couldn't help but wonder what the mercenary was thinking.

"Awww! You two look so cute!" Kayla chirped at the sight, bringing in an arm full of wood. Cloud took this as his cue to start making kissy noises again but stopped after I glared at him. "You two are no fun. You go through such a touching little conversation and all you do is hug."

"Shut it Kayla!" I glared at her. She just giggled and began to work on the fire. In no time, the camp was filled with the scent of Kayla's delicious cooking.

"So? How do you like it?" Kayla asked after we had taken over first bites.

"Awesome as always!" I grinned, taking another bite.

"I think you've given Genis some competition." Kratos agreed.

"Thought you'd like it! You can't even taste the tomatoes in it!" Kayla grinned. Kratos put his fork down and looked at the plate on his lap.

"Tomatoes?" he asked, turning his gaze towards Kayla.

"Yeah! I always use them!" Kayla answered cheerfully. Kratos didn't look to pleased and pushed the plate away.

"I think I'm full." He said simply. Kayla and I laughed.

"I forgot you and Lloyd don't like tomatoes." I laughed again, finishing off my plate and taking Kratos' "Anyways, I'll finish yours since you don't want it. Be the way, Kayla, what is this?"

"I don't know?" She shrugged, "I just mixed together a bunch of stuff I thought looked good." I couldn't repress another laugh. "I'll try not to add tomatoes next time ok Kratos?" His eyes brightened and he nodded.

"That would be greatly appreciated." He said. Kayla laughed, taking the plates to clean them. Kratos sighed, pulling out his sword to clean it.

"Kratos, what's been on your mind lately?" I asked suddenly. The swordsman paused from wiping his blade down and looked at me.

"Nothing." He lied, "Why do you ask?"

"It's just that there's been times when you've seemed really nervous. I was just wondering what was going on? I mean, its not like you to seem nervous." I explained.

"I've just had a lot of things on my mind." He replied, returning to polishing the blade as Kayla sat down beside me.

"Like what Kratos? You know you can tell me anything." I smiled, hoping he'd give in.

"I don't really want to talk about it. It's kind of a sensitive subject to me. Like Tiamatt's past is to you." Kratos explained. "I hope you understand."

"Yeah I understand." I said and let the subject go and looked at Kayla. "What's wrong with you?"

"What? Oh nothing. Just thinking over today I mean, this morning I was on Ear-"

"Gaia" I corrected.

"Right, Gaia, whatever. Well I was in Iowa, dying in Physics like always and then the next thing I know, you return from the dead and show me that my school has been teleported into a video game dimension. It's a lot to take in." She sighed.

"Yeah, I guess your right." I agreed. I heard Kratos return his sword to it scabbard and saw him walk a little distance away in order to keep watch. "We better get some sleep. Kratos will wake us in the morning to leave for Luin."

"Alright. Hey Imoto?" She asked. I turned back towards her. "I'm happy you found someone and I am jealous but do you truly think there is someone for me?"

"Of course! If the Nightmare of FF7 can find someone to love him then there is certainly someone for you." I smiled.

"Wow! I can't believe you called Sephiroth the Nightmare!" Kayla grinned. I merely blinked before laughing out loud. After talking for a little longer, both of us were soon asleep, waiting for the next day.

Me: All around the country and coast to coast!

People always ask "What do you like most?"

I don't wanna brag, I don't wanna boast

I always tell them, I like toast!

Yeah Toast! Yeah Toast!

Lloyd: (sigh) as you can see, she is still on her sugar rush.

Me: It never calls me, when I'm down, love never wanted me, but I took it anyways!

Lloyd: how does she go from Bob and Tom to Fallout Boy?

Me: I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche,scaramouche will you do the fandango-
Thunderbolt and lightning-very very frightening me-
Galileo,galileo,
Galileo galileo
Galileo figaro-magnifico-
But Im just a poor boy and nobody loves me-
Hes just a poor boy from a poor family-
Spare him his life from this monstrosity-
Easy come easy go-,will you let me go-
Bismillah! no-,we will not let you go-let him go-
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go let me go
No,no,no,no,no,no,no-
Mama mia,mama mia,mama mia let me go-
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me,for me,for me-

Lloyd: Shoot me now! Please!

Me: When I was a young boy,

My father took me into the city

To see a marching band.

He said, "Son when you grow up,

will you be the saviour of the broken, The beaten and the damned?"

He said "Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non believers,

the plans that they have made?"

Because one day I leave you,

A phantom to lead you in the summer,

To join the black parade."

Me: Ok, review damn you!
