Zelos: This is my entry for Quest 9 the first time. This time, I am going to make it a short fluff. The couple is Sheelos and I of course include a short fluff scene. This takes place 3 years after Dawn Of A New World. This shows me and my pain for not seeing Sheena for so long if she didn't come to see me until the 3 year party reunion.

Sheena: Oh, Zelos.

David the Writer: Very interesting Preview for a fluff.

Sheena: It's hard not to put that preview but fluffs remove a little bit of clothes. That's what that is.

David the Writer: Where does the reunion happen?

Zelos: Altamira in a ballroom for the reunion But then, after the reunion, story to the hotel rooms paid for by Regal.

Lloyd: Alright: We got to do this.

Zelos: I am going to like writing this one.

Sheena: I'll do the disclaimer. All TOS Characters © Namco Tales

Zelos: Thank you, Sheena. Background song is Comatose by Skillet. Now on with the Story.


His Decision

Zelos looks at his invitation to a ball at Altamira, celebrating the 3 year reunion of The Restorers of Ratatosk. It brought him happy memories and some sad ones as well. Then he read it to the next point and it said that a lot of Mizuho's Ninjas were going to be there for helping to save Altamira from the Vanguard.

Zelos says "How much irony can there be?"

The next night, Zelos walked into the ballroom of Altamira's Hotel. He was greeted by his fans. Then the memories of sadness resurfaced. He told them that he didn't want to speak to them at the moment.

One of them says "But why, Master Zelos?"

Zelos yells "I said I want to be left alone so get out of my way!"

They step back and Zelos just runs on through them. He doesn't care what people think of him currently. His time as a being with life is almost gone.

Lloyd says "What's up with Zelos?"

Sheena says "No one has been able to figure that out for that past 5 weeks. He certainly is changing from what is going on."

Colette says "He is acting as if he doesn't care what people think of him anymore."

Zelos just sits down and ignores people's comments about him. It will be soon all over with his life.

Zelos thinks "If only she would listen to me. Then things could change."

His own hurting heart and discomforted mind is destroying his remaining life. He misses his soul. He doesn't care what could happen to him. He just doesn't anymore. His own body looked different. It looks tired and grumpy. He looks like he is actually destroyed by a evil monster without being attack by one.

Sheena says "It's like nothing matters to him anymore."

A changed form Ratatosk appears in the ballroom and everyone cheers. Ratatosk looks at Zelos and sees what is happening to him. He sees what changed him and the only way it will stop. Suddenly a group of demons walk into the ballroom. They are disguised as humans. Ratatosk looks at them.

The Guards say "You need to show us your invitation."

Zelos' Eyes look up at them. He notices their want to destroy Ratatosk. It seems to him that these are not humans.

Zelos stands up and says "Hey, you guys! What are you? You are obviously not humans because you seem to want to free allies and it seems that you think destroying Ratatosk is the only way to get that."

The So-called Human leader says "Oh so you can tell, Cruxis Angel?"

Everyone looks at them and at Zelos.

Zelos says "Yeah, I can. I prefer that you don't call me that."

The 'Human' Leader says "We are demons. Why do you not like to be called Cruxis Angel? Oh, that's right. The reason is because People don't know that you are Cruxis' Forgotten Fifth Seraphim."

Everyone gasps and they start whispering to each other.

Sheena says to Zelos "Is that true?"

Sheena asked the one thing that no one else would dare ask.

Zelos says "Yes, it is. I earned that rank to find out Cruxis' Techniques in battle to take them down from the top of the inside. It was my family's plan from the beginning."

Everyone gasps. The Wilder family had decided to destroy Cruxis since a very long time ago. That meant they were the most undercover agents in the history of Cruxis.

Zelos says "And so I must defeat you, demons." He places his hand on his Cruxis Crystal and says "All I want is a fun, easy life. Nothing more, Nothing Less but that will never come to be as long as life exists."

He summons his giant orange wings. The wings had changed size because of his own life being drained out of him.

The Demon leader says "Your wings aren't suppose to be that big. Why are they that big?"

Zelos says "The same reason I have changed how I act. My life energy is being drained by the Cruxis Crystal until the end of tonight where I will be a lifeless being."

Everyone gasps at this fact and Sheena looks worried.

Sheena says "Why weren't you already a lifeless being?"

Zelos says "Because I always had love for a certain person stopping me from going that way. My love for that person is the only emotion I truly had left. I don't have any others. My soul is only filled with Love as of then. Now, I have given up on trying to get that person's love to restore the rest of my emotions and be a true being filled with life."

Ratatosk says "I wonder who that could be."

Verius suddenly appears at the top of the ballroom. He is floating above everyone and is right under to the ceiling.

Verius says "I demand you, Zelos, to say who is this person. I can do this because I was created with the help of that love."

Everyone is shocked by that announcement.

Zelos says "The person who can prevent me from turning into a lifeless being and that I truly love is Sheena Fujibayashi."

Everyone including Verius and the Demons is surprised. They couldn't believe that Sheena is one he truly loves.

Sheena drops to the floor with tears in her eyes and yells "I love you too, Zelos!"

That shocked everyone even more. It never was apparent that Sheena loved Zelos but it was apparent that Zelos loved Sheena.

Zelos finally smiles and says "Well that's good because that makes me that much more powerful."

Everyone says "What do you mean, Zelos?"

Then Zelos uses his ultimate arte that is more powerful than Shining Bind.

Zelos says "Let me show you what it means to be an angel with Life inside of them. Take this, Life's Shining Bind!"

A Shining Bind that covers the entire battlefield appears and destroys the demons. It is unbelievable powerful and Regal then says that the reunion is now over.

Zelos walks up to Sheena's and his room. He finds her waiting for him there.

Sheena says "I can tell you want to back up your words with a little loving because I want it as well."

Zelos smiles and says "Alright but I am going to respect Mizuho Tradition."

Zelos moves toward her and gets on top of her. Sheena takes this with great pleasure. This would be the first time she accepts him doing this. Then Zelos kisses her on the lips and she kisses back. She doesn't realize how much she is putting into this until they open their mouths to do some passionate kisses. Sheena then sees Zelos move the front of the top of her robe down her body and starts kissing her top of her chest. She accepts it and enjoys it. She truly does love Zelos and this proves it. They soon after that stop to find themselves smiling at each other. They then go asleep in the same bed.

The end


Zelos: How was that?

Sheena: It was beautiful.

David the Writer: This is worth 1000 gald for such a good one-shot. It has battles in it and a love scene.

Sheena: Great, now Zelos has more gald.

Zelos: I am giving the gald I earned from this to the charity called Half-Elf Movement.

Genis: (Walks in because he heard that) Thank you for your kind donation, Zelos.

Zelos: No problem. Anything to help out my fellow Symphonians.

Genis: I take that bag of gald and leave. (Leaves with the bag of 1000 gald).

Sheena: Zelos just gave a 1000 gald donation to Genis' Group? Am I dreaming?

David the Writer: No, you're not. Way to go, Zelos.

Zelos: It's no big deal. Go ahead and leave any feedback on the story that you want.
