Chapter 9: Trouble in Hamel Part 3

Sorry I didn't update daily I've been having home issues Not to mention for some reason fanfiction wasn't working I couldn't even see the home page after it stopped working on my phon n i was like halfway done writing this chapter but it didn't save like it said it did so i had to start over which aggravated me because I Didn't Remember what i wrote! so here's what i remember of the chapter n what I managed to come up with.

"The Halls of Water are where we need to go next. An analysis of our leads show high probability that she has or will be there," Eve said in a tone that meant we need to go now.

"What!? We can't go now! Elesis hasn't even been up walking around for a full hour not to mention I haven't even got to really speak with her," Elsword said aggravated at how Eve was being so inconsiderate," The Temple of Frozen Water took it's tole on all of us we need some more time!" at these words Eve's poker face vanished and was replaced with an angry one as she rose her hand to slap Elsword Add interrupted.

"She's fine dude. I bet if we ask her she'll say she's ready to go," Add said butting in like usual and siding with Eve.

"We are Not nasods, and we actually rely on our body and it's condition unlike you Add," Aisha said angrier than Elsword at their sudden impatience and jumping in to defend Elsword noticing how Eve and Add were ganging up on him. Did she just side with me? Elsword wondered appreciating her. Aisha only further angered Eve and Add. Causing the argument to go on

POV Change (while they're arguing this is happens)

"...Yea, and then this thing attacked us I didn't get a good look at it by it's laugh though it was definitely evil. What it said though... It... it said my father was at the Temple of Trials, and of course I don't know if I can believe that. He showed me my father in a room though, and... I don't know what to think Elesis," Chung said his voice full of confusion, worry, and very evidently uncertainty.

"I-I know this isn't my place to butt in or anything," Ara said stepping through the bushes nervous," but I just overheard what you said and... well I heard rumors that Aren was at the Halls of Water, so naturally I searched for information on anything and everything relating to that. I came across information about the Temple of Trials we can definitely go there to save your dad Chung. It's after the Halls of Water, so we'll probably do that first, but we'll definitely go there for you Chung. Justice will prevail Chung. Justice always prevails," with that Ara left to go talk to Elsword about their plan.

"See will save your dad. We're all here for you Chung. This group is full of people who will help you. We can do it together," she held my hands and looked into my eyes smiling her sweet smile, and I knew that I want this and I want her. I knew we'd save my father.

"With you Elesis I can do anything," I whispered putting my head against hers taking in every second of her closeness, loving every second with her. "Are you well enough to travel?" I asked letting the worry be heard in my voice.

"Yea I-" she started, but Elsword interrupted her. -(A/N Obviously they stopped arguing and ara already told Elsword what happened)

"Don't you dare say you're fine. I know you're not, and I still need to talk to you," he said.

"Alright I'll give you guys some time alone," Chung was saying.

"Nope you better stay right there. We all need to talk," Elsword said seeming aggressive, but really he was just hurt that they wouldn't tell him. "You guys should've told me. Why? Why didn't you? I mean it... it hurt that I was the only one that didn't know," he said looking at the ground so they wouldn't see the hurt in his eyes.

"Elsword," Elesis said pain in her voice," I didn't want to add more trouble, more emotional problems because I knew they'd bother you on the battlefield, and you can't have that. You need to be a leader which means-"

"Shut Up! I know what it means! Would you stop with that!? I'm older now Elesis. I've grown up," he mumbled the last part agitated with the situation.

"Elsword," Elesis whispered feeling like he just slapped her in the face.

Chung looked at Elsword his face all serious," What do you want from us then! Elesis tries her hardest to be the parents you didn't have. She's doing her best! Even when she was gone with the Red Knights she still thought about you still worried about you. I know because I was there, and I will not leave your sister. She's grown too. You can be mad all you want, but you will find no guy that will try his damnedest to treat her better. I promise you that Elsword," Chung said determination evident in every part of him. He respected Elsword, but Elsword wouldn't ruin his chance with her. Not ever.

"C'mon guys! We need to get there early so we'll be out before it's dark hopefully!" Rena shouted not really in any direction. Oh boy the drama is coming hopefully Elesis and Chung work, we'll be here for you Chung when you need us we'll help you save your dad just like Ara and her brother.

********************************************************(after the fight w/ ran you can just imagine how that went for ara cuz idk n i dont wanna fudge up da storyline tryin to make it up :P)

"Oh brother," Ara said teary eyed," I will save you no matter what." Rena was the first to move she dropped to her knees and just hugged Ara. She didn't say anything just was there for her. Eve joined in shocking the team at her human kindness. Slowly every one was hugging Ara and they all thought about her troubles leading to them thinking about there demons. No one spoke for a very long time, and when Rena did she even got people to smile.

"Let's continue. We'll save him Ara, and-" *grumble* ," well we better save our stomachs first," *more grumbles and a few laughs*,"

**********************************************************************(after food)

"We may not have been able to save Aren just yet, but we can still save Helputt Chung," Ara said her determination for justice showing.

"H-how did you know his name I never...," I said amazed.

"Elesis told me," Ara shrugged as if it wasn't that big a deal. I looked at Elesis surprised.

"If I wanna help you I gotta know everything, also I visited your home. Your maid is so nice she told me everything about you. Even how when you were little and you'd throw a tantrum you'd just lay down face first on the floor not even making noise," she said smiling. I instantly felt slightly embarrassed.

"Yea I was spoiled when I was little," I smiled seeing the gang laugh. The memories of when I was little only brought sadness to me though, and Elesis noticed.

"Hey I have an idea," Elesis said mischievous as always. "tag," her grinned widened," One, two... three! Not it" Elesis shouted along with the rest of the game except Rena who had been busy putting the food away for later. "Your it for tag Rena!," and quick as lightening the team vanished.

I found myself a small cubby in a tree and stashed my cannon in there while I climbed the tree. "Well hello there stranger," Elesis said smiling and whispering," Great minds think alike they say by the way nice idea with the cannon," she looks so kissable she's right there her lips right there losing control over myself I started to lean closer when we both froze hearing a slight noise almost undetectable had I not been in such an intense state.

"Don't worry guys I'll-" Rena paused seeing my cannon as she explored the cubby, and of course found nothing. "Clever Chung, but I know you won't be far from your cannon plus I just barely heard Elesis's voice telling me you're here too Elesis. I mean really guys I'm a Night Watcher part of the Night Savers do you really think you could hide so easily?" Rena said full of herself, but one hundred percent right. Elesis looked at me and I looked at her, and up the tree we went further and further until the branches would no longer support our weight. When we could no longer progress and we were certain Rena had started to climb the tree we some how managed to jump to the next tree. I carried Elesis when we jumped seeing as how she knew her limits and jumping tended to be one. We didn't stop moving once we were thirty feet away from our original destination we went back to camp, and by now Rena really had the advantage because dusk had disappeared and been replaced with night.

"Hey! you guys came back here too?" Aisha said.

"Yea we barely avoided being caught be Rena," Elesis said.

"Really just don't get tapped and your fine," Aisha said.

"I don't know Rena takes tag to new levels. Aisha since you can teleport could you go grab my cannon for me?"

"Yea sure where is it-" Aisha got interrupted.

"RAVEN'S IT GUYS!" Rena hollered. I quickly told Aisha where it was, and she returned just as fast. I said my thanks and Elesis and I were off. My tactical mind and her's were a great pair. We stuck together all night. I got it once, and failed trying to catch her so I threw a grenade in front of her which stopped her.

"Hey! you coulda hit me!" she yelled.

I came close to her locking my arms around her waist," Do you really think I'd hit you?" I asked using my 'teddy bear cuteness' as the group would say to make her smile, and I saw her melt into me.

"No of course not," she snuggled closer to me.

"Well good because now you're it," I said with a mischievous smile of my own," No tap backs!" I yelled already knowing what she might try to do. The game continued on a bit longer we all stopped around one in the morning so we could sleep. The Temple of Trials... I will save you Father, and I closed my eyes for sleep.

****************************************(Outside temple of trials)

"Sasha!?" the team yelled practically in sync.

"I will accompany you through the Temple of Trials. As I understand your father is here Chung? I will be like a guide to you young heroes through the trials this temple has, so let's begin" Sasha said not waiting for any of us to reply. She wasn't wrong when she said it was a Temple of Trials it stood up to its name. It tested our mental ability with puzzles and deadly traps. Aisha did most of the mind games while Rena pointed out the traps, and Raven helped noticing common military tactics. Ara often went into Eun mode to find things we could not with the help of Eve they reached places we wouldn't have reached. we ran into more complex traps as we went that was when Eve and Add stepped up to disarm them. Elsword, Elesis, and I seemed to be along just for the ride. "You three will be very important. Do not feel left out. Your friends our helping where they can," to the whole group not just us Sasha said," this is the last mind puzzle. After this the physical trouble will begin." We stood in front of a large door with strange symbols on it.

"What is it?" Ara asked.

"I'll scan a data analysis check," Eve said.

"W-wait," my mind started having flashes of myself in a crib with those symbols hanging above me and on my ceiling. I started to recollect talking and words about those symbols. Do you think he'll want to know? a women said I don't know why, but I love her M-mom? my mind was racing. Scenes flashed before my eyes. I dropped to one knee over whelmed.

"Chung!" Elesis said instantly by my said. I saw things go black as I drifted into my subconscious.

"Wow! This is beautiful. Chung will love it," the woman with the familiar voice said.

"I hope so. I want him to know all about Ancient Hamel," F-father! I know that's his voice. Scenes changed again.

"This one is Love Chung. It is one of the most powerful things there is," the woman said looking at me with happiness. "Oh you will be a great person I just know it," she said smiling even more. Father came behind her and kissed her cheek, and instantly I knew one hundred percent it was my mother.

"Dear he'll also be a great one of these," Father pointed to another symbol. "You will be a great Warrior Chung. The Water Priestess said so, but I didn't need that to already know. You will be an honorable Seiker," The black out ended.

"Wait! Don't go!" I woke up yelling. Elesis hugged me.

"God Chung you scared us all. What happened?" I stood shrugging Elesis off. She looked a bit hurt, but I was to busy looking Sasha directly in the eyes.

"You knew. You know everything, and you didn't tell me!" I said enraged.

"I with hold information that I needn't share," Sasha said all prim and proper.

I as furious, but calmly with a pleading look on my face I asked Sasha," I know you can't tell me everything, but at least tell me about my mother. I feel I deserve that Sasha."

"I will explain more once we are through this dungeon Chung Seiker. Right now your friends need your knowledge of what you've discovered," Sasha made it sound like she let me know! I was not becoming very fond of this water priestess.

"Hey these look like some of my runes," Elsword said trying to distract the group from the tension.

"I also recognize some of these ancient scripts. Give me a little time and we should have this door figured out," Eve said.

"Eve I love the way you are," Add said with a playful smile watching her every mood. I turned to Elesis. She was still a bit hurt, but she understood. I expected a bit of anger. I was not ready for what she said next. No fear, no uncertainty in her voice, just genuine care.

"Chung we will save him. We will." I looked into her eyes.

"Those fiery passionate eyes Elesis," I whispered to her as I held her hands in mine.

(slight time pass say about 2 minutes)

"Alright Elsword what do you have to add to my data," Eve said.

"Somebody call?" Add asked just to toy with Eve's patience.

"Sure help me," Eve said with a small smile. Wow Add really won her over. I let my friends try to solve this puzzle as they solved the others. Elesis even added her mind to it, but there were two symbols none of the group could figure out. I sat on my cannon waiting to see what the hold up was when Sasha approached me again.

"You are required to solve this your highness," Sasha said with no negative energy at all, so I came over to see what it was the team couldn't figure out.

"This is what we have translated," Eve said to me as I approached. "Only a true _ that can harness the power of _ and use it to its fullness may open this door. I've waited for you _" I read, and I felt my heart tighten in my chest as I saw the missing symbols and thought of the scenes I'd seen. I pointed to each one feeling the engravings the gang hadn't known.

Softly barely audible I said," Only a true warrior that can harness the power of love and use it to its fullness may open this door. I've waited for you, son," I barely choked out the last word my walls tearing down. My heart breaking, yet hope fulling me. He remembers me. He can be saved! as I'd finished reading the cracks around the door light up with a white almost holy light. The kind Hamel used to associate my father with. Slowly the door opened. We were greeted by a horde of demons and dark creatures. "I'll save you father!" I shouted and into the horde I went. The gang quickly following me. The whole time Elesis was by my side. Fighting just as hard as me as if this was here battle. When I noticed the whole team around me I decided we could always use a buff "Wonder Wall!" We went through the horde we didn't stop till everything was vanquished. I used my furry at Sasha, my father being gone, not knowing my mother, and the my good memories to full me in my berserk state.

It was probably an hour before we defeated the horde, but to me it was to short. There hadn't been enough for me to fully vent my mixed emotions. "I think he's dead Chung," Elesis laughed as I realized I'd been smacking the same dead demon for a little while. "Do you feel better?" Elesis asked so only I heard.

"A little" I replied.

"I'll open this door my friends," Sasha said quickly coming forth. "Behind this door is your father Chung. We can rest for a second fully prepare yourselves," Sasha said seeming to know that this would be a hard battle. The group looked to me. I looked to Elesis.

"Time to get pumped up," I said knowing she loved doing this. Her smile was a mile wide.

"Al troops prepare for Battle!" Elesis shouted starting the pumped up montage that is coming.

Ara went next helping heal her slightly broken heart," Brother I realized in this world there exist evil, and their forces are great in numbers. I have decided to stand by Justice and I will punish the demons!" She shouted. We were standing in a circle looking at each other to see who would be next. Eve stepped up.

"Oberon, Ohpelia, Let's get this over with!" she shouted as they appeared bowing to her.

"I must fight on for those I care for!" Raven shouted.

"Everyone Follow my Command!" Rena yelled making us remember her wisdom. I could see the group shifting out of their gloom I felt it too.

"Prepare to face magical girl Aisha, Helputt!" Aisha hollered. For a split second I looked to see if Add would say anything. One look and I knew he didn't need the encouragement. He was already on an adrenaline rush.

"Helputt, Ready for some Heat!?" Elsword challenged. the group looked at me.

"My Destroyer is finally finished Father!" I said louder than I'd ever yelled before determination coursing through my blood. "We are ready to face you!" and on Que Sasha opened the door.

My father put up a seriously dangerous fight I wouldn't give up on him though not when I was so close. "Father it's me. I have come to save you! Satellite Rain!" I yelled trying to reason with him while never stopping my fight.

"Helputt!" Elesis yelled, and he actually turned to face her. "You can not do this especially not to Chung Seiker! SWORD OR RELICS!" she yelled I'd never seen her use that move before, and I was in shock to how deadly Elesis was. Father staggered not done yet.

"What gives you the right to face me little red head!" My father actually replied.

"THIS!" Elesis yelled as she jumped into the air and landed on top of him hacking and slashing at him. None of us stopped fighting, and over all the noise I heard Elesis yelling to my father. "I Love Your Son! HOW DARE YOU DO THIS!" she back flipped off of him and was right in front of him.

"Elesis," I yelled seeing a familiar fighting tactic I used," Move He'll crush you!" but I was foolish to under estimate Elesis like that. Just as he moved himself into a position that he was very vulnerable even though it was for a split second Elesis caught it.

"JUUUDGEMENT DRIVE!" Elesis yelled like a battle cry and the whole team followed as her moved stunned him for a few seconds she finished her move as everyone else attack with our strongest moves "Thousand Blossom!" "Code Thunderbolt!" "Neutron Bomb!" "Burning Buster!" "INNOCENT!" Shining Rune Buster" "Fate Space" I finished the onslaught "SATELLITE RAIN!" and my father fell on to one knee. White light engulfed him.

"Father!" I yelled. Did we? Is he saved? HE MUST BE!

"Son! What's happened!" My father yelled seeing me I allowed a few tears to fall.

"The demons possessed you they were running rampant, but-" he interrupted me.

"Then I must go Right Away! TO SAVE HAMEL AND OUR KINGDOM!" and he jumped straight through the ceiling leaving me... again. Some of the gang went to try to follow him all except Elesis, Rena, and even Sasha was still here.

"I worried this would happen," Rena said making my mind process those final fighting moments, and how determined Rena was acting liking it was hurting her to see this but still determined.

"You... what?" I said confused.

"Chung I've lived a long time. Just accept my wisdom. I'll go get so food everyone will come back hungry, and Chung what would you like?" I shook my head not knowing. I got the feeling she would know what to feed me. Elesis dropped to her knees as she hugged me. She didn't even say anything. She just... understood. She lived with this pain every day of her life.

"You live with this pain every day. It's even worse considering My father is still alive," I mumbled feeling stupid for not considering her feelings. No wonder she was fighting so hard. She was battling her demons in this battle. "You were amazing" I said as I pulled her back so i could see her eyes. "Those fiery, passionate eyes," I said in taking a breath as I held the most beautiful girl in the world in my arms. "Come on let me see that passion?" I asked wanting her to be happy. When she was happy it made me happy instead she did something I never saw. She cried, not just let tears streaming she was crying, and for a while we were like that holding each other letting our emotions take over. Finally I remembered Sasha it seemed like Elesis did too. We looked up at her.

"Ready to see your mother Chung?" she asked," Elesis can come too" she added reading my mind.

I was never so sad yet so happy in my life as Sasha let me see the way my family used to be," We'll be like that again," I said knowing it was true. When Sasha brought us back she was no where to be seen and the whole gang was back arguing with Rena.

"We should go look for them!" I heard Elsword say.

"No they'll be right back Elsword Sasha took them. Look there they are!" Rena said pointing. The whole gang rushed to see us.

"Guys we weren't even gone that long," Elesis said, but seeming happy that they cared so much.

"What are you talking about sis? You've been gone four hours!" Elsword said. "Where'd you go?"

"We had to meet some one," She said.

"Well lets eat!" Elsword yelled at the exact time Aisha's stomach growled.

As we ate the group asked about what we saw and where we went. Elesis was nervous to tell them since it wasn't her story, but I told them everything. I knew I should've been sad, but seeing my mom made me happy.

"You've had a full day," Elesis said as she boldly laid next to me to sleep.

"Yea, but it worked out well. We have to go to Sander next. I'm not really excited for that," I said scrunching my face making Elesis laugh.

"Yea a desert doesn't have much water does it?" she said still laughing. "Night Chung."

"Night Elesis," I said back feeling butterflies in my stomach. I quickly fell into a peaceful slumber.
