Chap de Four
And so they begin!
IOE: Hey, guys. Once again, I was on vacation, this time to New England for four days. Okay, I've decided I'll tell you guys when I'm going on vacation from now on, so these un-fulfilled updates aren't mysteries. Okay, two or three weeks from now, I'm going to be in Seattle for a week. And then, for Labor Day weekend, I'll be in California for three or four days. And that's it. 'Kay? Oh, and now I'm going to try to reply to reviewers so they feel special.
Blackarrow92: Sorry, man. Ze ash shipping may occur in a fanfic I write after The Other World. Ivan, huh? I don't like Ivan. Everyone uses him, and he's not my best GS char. He'll be a buddy for a chapter or two.
Fehize: Yay! I feel all foozy inside! Hrmmm…Meg and Justin? They're sane! I can't have non-crazy people here! Hsu, however…yeeees, we shall have him… (Insert evil laugh here).
Feizhi: Kiri…. I want her, too! She shall be co-squishy! WHERE IS SHE!
IOE: In the chapter where she belongs.
Feizhi: RRRRRAHHH! (Tackles IOE)
IOE/Flotsam: Arrrrgh! (IOE uses flamey staff to get Feizhi off)
IOE: Aaaah! Somebody help!
Feizhi: You're the Fire Mage of NDA and you can't even fight off me? What a weakling.
(Flotsam runs for cover)
(Ivan/Hsu appear)
Hsu: What're you doing this time?
Feizhi: SHUT UP!
Ivan: Well, everyone seems to be busy. I'll do the disclaimer. Discl- (Feizhi attacks him, screaming 'Super squishy')
Flotsam: (sneaks out) Disclaimer: Ignira of Esperon does not own Golden Sun. Nor does she own Finding Nemo. Please enjoy this chapter!
Isaac and Kiri had been walking towards the hill where he was found, and then he realized he had no idea where he was going. He looked at Kiri.
"Which shrine is closest?" he asked. She put her hands on her hips.
"I was wondering why we were going this way. There are only hills and mountains for the next four miles!" she said. Isaac continued to look at her.
"Oh! Um, the closest one should be the Uranus shrine! It's to the East," she said. Isaac nodded, and they turned their backs to the sun, which was beginning to set, and started walking.
After half an hour, Isaac stopped to drink from the canteen Carver had leant him. The water trickled down his dry throat. Kiri didn't drink.
"I'm too used to going long without water," she explained haughtily.
Fifteen minutes later, she stopped to drink. Isaac rolled his eyes when she wasn't looking.
They reached a mountain. It was a little taller than Mount Aleph had been, Isaac had reflected. Kiri told him that they had to travel up this mountain a little ways until it became a plateau, and then they would go across the plateau.
"And my feet are tired. Can't we just-" Kiri's complaining was interrupted by a growl. And then a gray blur leaped on her. She screamed.
Isaac reacted almost instantly. He unsheathed his sword and jabbed it into the animal's (Isaac assumed it was a wolf) back. It howled and rolled off the girl.
Isaac's stomach felt ill. This was no wolf. It had the head of an old man surrounded by gray fur. The old man's head, however, was upside down. The mouth frothed, and the eyes were a sharp green with cat pupils. The eyes had the creature's drool on them, but probably had a film over them so that the drool did not hinder their eyes.
Isaac stepped back in surprise of the repulsive appearance.
Kiri, however, had stood up. She raised her staff and her other arm, and muttered something Isaac could not hear. Winds came from up high and slammed themselves into the beast, which flew backward, barking.
Isaac saw that the dog-like creature's body grazed a large, sharp boulder protruding from the ground. It fell, and howled. Blood poured from its back and ribs. Isaac hesitantly approached, wondering if the monster would attack.
The wound to its chest was serious. Isaac knew it was dying slowly and painfully. He turned around. Kiri was behind him. She was very quiet.
Isaac raised his arms, and muttered 'Ragnarok.' A blue, swirling energy aura surrounded him. There was a flash of light, and then a giant sword made of red light put the creature out of its misery.
He turned to the mountain and started walking. He made ten steps and then realizing Kiri wasn't following. He turned around. She was staring at the wolf beast.
"Kiri?" he called.
She looked up and ran to Isaac. Her eyes glistened, as though she were about to cry.
"Th-that was an Orler. They live in the mountains, so watch out," she said.
Isaac nodded, and continued walking. Kiri was silent for a while. He sighed.
"Kiri, it was him or us," he said.
"It's not that…" she said, her voice cracking. Isaac walked a few more steps, and then closed his eyes. He sighed again and turned around.
"Kiri, what's wrong?" he asked. Kiri sniffed, tried to say something, and then started to cry. Isaac rushed over, and bent over to see. She covered her face with her hands.
After a minute that lasted an eternity, she sniffed again and cleared her eyes of tears.
"Kiri, what's wrong?" he asked.
"I watched my father die like that, except no one finished his suffering early," she said very quietly.
Isaac didn't want to say anything, so he was silent, took her arm, and pulled her along.
There was silence between them for a while. Isaac began to hear cicadas as they climbed higher and higher. Finally, there was a path. He reached it first, and helped Kiri up.
"How did you manage to get a caravan up this mountain?" he asked, breaking the silence. The quiet made him a little uncomfortable.
"There was a pathway, but a landslide knocked it out a few years ago. We never went this way after that." she explained, shrugging. She walked ahead of him, and then stopped as they heard to growls.
"Did I just hear an Orler?" she asked. Isaac turned around to see two Orlers on the path, snarling and drooling.
"No, you heard two." he said, and unsheathed his sword. He felt a surge of power, and the sword let out a howl.
He lifted his sword with both hands. A golden light burst from the tip of the sword, and then separated into two beams of light. They flew into the Orlers' heads. They were immediately stunned. He turned to Kiri, who was already surrounded by her swirling purple aura, both arms lifted high. Winds gathered, and flew into the Orlers. They were blown off the side of the mountain.
"We'll be on the plateau by the time they're back up here anyway." she said, shrugging.
Isaac and she continued walking, and the path led them to a cliff. About six feet across and three feet below from the cliff was a long, flat, broad plateau that must have stretched for about three leagues.
"This is where it gets tricky," she said, frowning.
"No kidding." said Isaac.
"There was a bridge here," she said.
He and Kiri thought for a moment. Isaac finally had an idea.
"Kiri," he said, "I'm going to give you some beads, and I need you to wear them," he said.
"What, am I going to woo some passing bird into carrying us over?" she asked, rolling her eyes. Isaac frowned.
"…And then I need to see if you can use the power they give you, saying 'Catch,' as you do, to carry that little rock over on that plateau," he pointed at the little rock, "Over here. Using Psynergy."
Kiri raised an eyebrow skeptically, but did as she was told as Isaac took the beads off of his head and gave them to her. She put them on, and looked at them in disgust.
"Ugly thing. Where'd you get this?" she asked.
"My mother made it." Isaac replied, clearing his throat. Kiri opened her mouth in horror at what she'd just said.
"When I said 'ugly,' I meant-"
"Just get the rock."
Kiri turned to the plateau, and said, "Catch."
She stretched her hands out, and grabbed air. The little rock slowly made its way up, and then to Kiri, carried by a ghostly hand.
"Wow," she said, staring at the piece of sandstone in her hand.
"Yeah. Okay, cast Float on yourself, and I'll give you a push, so you'll end up at the plateau. Once you're there, cast Float on me, and then Catch on me, so I'll end up over there, too." he said.
"What if it doesn't work?" she asked, putting a hand on her hip.
"We can wait for the Orlers to come back. I'm sure they'd have a better plan." Isaac replied.
Kiri muttered "Float." The ghostly hand appeared and picked her up. Isaac seized her sides and gave a hearty push. The small Uranus Proficien's body wooshed across to the plateau. She gasped, Isaac assumed from the sudden feeling of flying through the air. It kept going, however, and her body began to go higher.
Before Isaac could call out to the girl to warn her to brace herself, the Psynergy ended, and the hand safely set her down. She ran over to the edge of the plateau, and pointed her staff at Isaac.
"Lift," she said, and Isaac felt his body being lifted into the air. And then, "Catch," and his body went safely over the cliff and the hand suddenly dropped him. He landed on his backside, and grunted in pain. Kiri laughed.
"Shut up," he said irritably, and he stood.
"Here're the beads," Kiri said, handing them to Isaac, who put them back on.
"That was so much fun!" she said. Isaac smiled.
"So, how far away is the Uranus Shrine?" he asked. Kiri shrugged one shoulder.
"Seven leagues across, one half of a league up." she said. Isaac sighed. That was a long way.
"So it's on a mountain half a league high?" he asked. Kiri shook her head.
"No, but we need a mountain to get there." she said mysteriously.
"What?" asked Isaac, puzzled. Kiri raised her eyebrows and smirked.
"Anyway, welcome to Ilzero's Plateau! This is the second largest mountain in Erutun!" she said, spreading her arms wide, gesturing to the plateau.
Isaac inwardly hoped he wouldn't have to travel on Erutun's largest plateau.
And so they started walking. Though the sun was beginning to set, it was still rather hot. Isaac was sweating. Kiri noticed his discomfort, and pointed to a group of rocks not too far away.
"There's a cave in the ground behind those rocks. It leads to a large system of caves we would use on hot days a few times." she said.
"You took a trading caravan through underground caves?" asked Isaac, bewildered. Kiri shrugged. She pointed to the west.
"Do you see that? It's the Naidnara Ocean. It's right beside the plateau. Some of its cool water is in the caves, so we'll be nice and cool." she explained.
"But, Kiri, how will we see?" asked Isaac.
"I brought a torch and a tinderbox," said Kiri.
"Alright, then." said Isaac.
Kiri took off her backpack and pulled out a small box and an unlit torch. She pulled out a piece of metal and flint from the tinderbox and struck the metal with the flint until fire was made. She then proceeded to light the torch. When she was done, she put the tinderbox back into her backpack and put it back on her shoulders.
They proceeded to the rocks Kiri had pointed to, and then reached the cave. It was a huge, black hole sitting in the ground. Kiri just started to walk in it. There was a small, small hill, and then the ground was flat. Isaac walked on the underground path in wonder. The ground looked damp, and there were puddles here and there.
"Okay, the first chamber's coming up," said Kiri, pointing to a cave shortly ahead.
She and Isaac continued walking, and then they reached the chamber. It was much larger than the space that he and Kiri had been walking through. Stalagmites now hung from the ceiling, and stalactites poked up from the ground.
"Ooh, here comes a large puddle," said Kiri.
And sure enough, shortly after she had said so, Isaac felt a chilling sensation in his feet. He looked down. Cold water almost reached the tops of his boots. He frowned.
Great. He thought.
Suddenly, there was the chilling sound of footsteps. Isaac and Kiri froze. Isaac saw a man appear at the other end of a chamber. He couldn't make out much else.
"Hey, who're you? This is private property!" he yelled. His voice echoed in the cavern.
"What!" yelled Isaac and Kiri at the same time.
"You heard me! Get lost!" said the man.
"No way! I've been here before! This isn't anybody's cave!" declared Kiri.
"Oh, yeah? Well, the great descendant of Ilzero himself has recently returned to claim his birthright!" replied the man.
"Just please let us pass through. We mean the owner of this cave no harm," said Isaac.
"You're not getting past me," said the man.
"Oh yeah?" challenged Kiri. She lifted her arms.
"Jet stream!" she yelled, and her voice echoed all over the chamber. For a moment, nothing happened. And then, winds came from behind them (Isaac assumed they were from the entrance to the cave) and gathered around Kiri, then thrust themselves into the man. He cried out as he was thrown backward.
He was out of sight for a few minutes, and then he came charging back. Isaac could now see that he had a shaved head with green eyebrows. A sword was strapped to his back.
"You damned Uranus Proficiens! May Poseidon use his awesome powers to bring you bastards to the ocean's depths!" he screamed, spit flying from his mouth.
"Oh yeah? You guys are afraid of heights! That's why you're stuck in this dumb cave!" Kiri shouted back.
"Enough, brat! Erosion!" cried the man, and suddenly, a huge wave appeared before Isaac and Kiri. Isaac stepped back. Kiri went scrambling away. The wave crashed down. The tremendous force knocked Isaac down. Water was pushing his body down, forcing him to the floor, preventing him from breathing. The salt burned his eyes. And then it was gone.
Isaac gasped for air, and nearly coughed a lung out. Kiri came running back.
"Isaac, are you okay?" she asked. Isaac stood. Now he was mad at this man.
He stretched his arms wide.
"Kiri, get back to where you were." he said. Kiri obeyed.
"Grand Gaia!" hollered Isaac.
A gaping hole opened in the earth between the man and Isaac. Golden light poured from the hole, and large boulders slammed themselves into the man. The earth shook.
And then it was over. The man fell over. He fainted. Kiri came back.
"That was awesome, Isaac! I didn't know you could do that!" she exclaimed, jumping up and down.
"Yeah, I've been around. But that's a long story. Let's just keep going," he said.
"Yeah!" exclaimed Kiri, and she followed him as he began to walk.
"So, are Neptune and Uranus Proficiens enemies?" asked Isaac as they exited the chamber.
"Yeah. I guess it's because we're polar opposites, but whatever. They act way too high and mighty," she said.
After a while, they reached a fork in the tunnel.
"We go left," said Kiri. And so, they took the tunnel to the left.
Kiri gasped at an object she found in the tunnel.
"Isaac, look! A chest!" she exclaimed, and the hand holding her staff pointed. He and Kiri approached it. Kiri knelt down and set down her staff, using her now-free arm to open the lid. She screamed as two eyes poked out the top, and legs and claws sprouted from the sides of the chest.
"It's a Mimic!" said Isaac in surprise. So Mimics were in Erutun, too.
"Ah! The sky's too far away for me to use my powers!" said Kiri as the Mimic scuttled towards her.
Isaac ran over and started to thrust his sword into the lid of the false chest, but one of its claws caught the sword and held on tight. The other claw tried to strike him, but Isaac kicked it away and tried to pull the sword away. The Mimic wasn't letting go any time soon. Isaac let go of the sword, stepped back, and called:
"Stone spire!"
Several large stalagmites appeared and crashed on the Mimic. It dropped the sword, and Isaac dove for it. He lifted it and thrust it into the Mimic. There was a horrible squealing noise from the Mimic, and then it stopped moving. Isaac removed his sword.
"Wow," said Kiri, "What kind of Proficien are you again?" she asked.
"Venus. I gain my power from the earth," explained Isaac.
"Oh," said Kiri, and then there were footsteps again. Two young men with green hair appeared.
"Hey!" they exclaimed together.
Isaac wasted no time charging forward with his sword. It gave out a howl, and it used its special attack. The man on the left was stunned. The other, however, held his own.
He pulled a knife from his belt and threw it. Isaac wasn't expecting this. He ducked, and just in time. The knife managed to cut off a bit of hair, but it was hardly noticeable.
"Isaac, why are you using your sword? Use some ma-err, Psyn-whatever!" shouted Kiri, irritated that she couldn't do anything.
Isaac ignored her, and charged forward with his sword.
The man extended his arm.
"Spout." he said.
A large force of concentrated seawater burst from his hand and hit Isaac square in the chest. He flew back, and landed on his rear.
"Ow!" he muttered, and then stood up.
The man was now advancing on Kiri, raising one of his throwing knives. Kiri was backing away, frightened.
Isaac quickly got up.
"Quake!"
And the earth began to shake. This knocked the man over, giving Kiri a chance to escape, and Isaac a chance to run over and give the man a swift blow to the head with the hilt of his sword. The man tried to stab Isaac as he tried to get up, but Isaac was too quick for him. There was a strange sound as metal met scalp, and the man was out.
"Come on, Kiri." he said, and she joined him as they continued walking.
"I don't get why somebody would want to own this place, even if he is Ilzero's descendant," said Kiri.
"Me, neither," replied Isaac, and he took a swig from his canteen.
"You know, these caves remind me of a story I heard when I was little," said Kiri as they followed the tunnel when it turned right. This led to a large chamber. The floor of it was covered in seawater that almost reached Isaac's knees. The water was freezing. He wondered if there was more water further along in the caves; his feet could go numb. There was a small hole in the ceiling of the chamber, through which sunlight came, along with the smell of sea air.
"Thank Uranus…." said Kiri, "A hole in the cave means I can access the sky." She lifted her staff above the water.
"Yeah, I'm beginning to get tired of doing all the work," laughed Isaac.
"And I'm getting tired of waiting for you to get off your butt and save me. After all, I'm your guide," she said.
They left the chamber, and Isaac's pants were soaked below the knee. Kiri showed little signs of discomfort; she probably liked getting wet like most children.
The tunnel led them left, and it was very long. No one came after them, however.
And then he saw something up ahead after a while. He pointed.
"What's that?"
"Ivan? Ivan,"
Ivan looked up.
"What? Oh. Sorry, sister," he apologized.
Master Hamma was dressed and packed, as was he. They were at Felix's home, being served breakfast by Felix and Jenna's mother. Felix and Jenna had explained the situation to their parents, who reluctantly agreed to let them go find Isaac. Jenna's mother insisted on making breakfast for them all.
"What're you thinking about, Ivan?" asked Jenna, leaning over to inspect her friend.
"I was just wondering…why was the cult after Isaac in particular? No offense to him, but we're all just about as strong as he, and they claimed he was overflowing with power. It's not like he's invincible," said Ivan.
Garet grunted something, trying to speak while stuffing his face with food. His friends all waited impatiently, and partly with disgust of his eating habits, for him to comment on what Ivan had said.
Ivan sighed. It had been like this since he'd met Garet. He remembered the time when they all sat at the table at Vault's Inn. Isaac was talking to Ivan about…he couldn't remember now, taking bites of his chicken, which he had sliced, now and then, and Ivan barely ate. Meanwhile, farther down the table, Garet was making very loud, pig-like noises as he wolfed down dinner. It had been good times indeed.
Garet managed to swallow the sausage, toast, and scrambled eggs that had been in his mouth without choking, a skill Ivan marveled.
"Maybe they can only sense the power of Venus," he said.
"I'm not so sure. If they could track Isaac's power aura from the inn, he should have been able to track mine. We are of equal strength," said Felix.
"Maybe-" Garet began, but Jenna cut in.
"I'm sure we can come up with a lot of 'maybes.' How about we focus on trying to find those creeps?" she asked.
The others voiced their agreement.
"Is everyone finished?" asked Jenna. And then she and Felix looked over at the end of the table.
"Garet, are you finished?" they inquired together.
Garet shook his head, unable to speak as he had filled his mouth with muffins. The siblings sighed simultaneously.
"We should get the others," Ivan offered, "I'm sure they would want to help,"
"I'm not so sure," said Felix, "it would be a long way to get them. As I understand it, Sheba is in Lalivero with Faran, Piers is back in Lemuria, and Mia is in Imil. This could divert us from our objective; to find the cult,"
"That is a good point, but I have the Teleport Lapis. We could all just teleport over to those places and get them. They would also be very valuable; these priests are very strong, and we could use some healing without paying for so many herbs and potions, not to mention battle aid," said Ivan, and the others nodded.
"That is very wise, Ivan. Perhaps when we are all finished with breakfast, we could get started on that," said Hamma.
As if on cue, Garet piped up:
"I'm finished."
And everyone got up, and thanked Felix's mother for the wonderful breakfast. Felix told Ivan, Garet, and Ivan's sister that he and Jenna would be a moment, and asked that they wait outside. Ivan understood. He wanted to say goodbye to his parents.
He opened the door for his sister and Garet, and then exited himself.
"Garet, perhaps you should go and bid your family farewell," suggested Hamma.
"I already did. Aaron tried to use Psynergy on me. He should be coming out of that stun I put him in by now," he replied.
Ivan chuckled and nodded.
"We already told Hammet what we were doing. He gave us some armor and weapons," he said, smiling, and gestured to his pack.
"No way! Gimme some, you hog!" exclaimed Garet.
"I'm sorry, Garet, but they were only meant for us," said Master Hamma apologetically.
Garet sighed forlornly.
"I see," he said.
Ivan noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with his friend. He read his mind as he reached into his bags and pulled out the Teleport Lapis. He gasped.
Garet, you like Jenna? And you're worried that she doesn't return your feelings, but instead has them for Isaac? He said into his head.
This was a problem, Ivan knew. He had heard Hamma's conversation the night before with Jenna, who did indeed pine for Isaac. Ivan inferred that it was a damn good thing that Garet had not heard what Jenna had said (A/N: Ivan, nor Hamma, nor Garet saw this kiss, FYI).
Garet looked furious and his face flushed. He turned to Ivan.
"Get the hell out of my head! Don't talk to me!" he said fiercely.
Ivan frowned. He was only concerned for his friend.
Ivan, you made a promise long ago not to invade Garet's mind, shortly after you all met. Your intention was noble, but you still should have simply asked. Hamma explained in his head. Ivan nodded.
Garet sighed.
"Yeah…but she hardly notices me now, but she'll always see Isaac," he said quietly.
"Perhaps you should confront her about your feelings," said Hamma wisely.
"Isaac said something like that, too, but I'm pretty sure she'd set me on fire again," he mumbled.
"Again?" asked Hamma and Ivan at the same time.
"One time when we were younger, I accidentally dropped her new cloak in the river…." he explained.
And then everyone jumped as the door opened. Felix stepped out, and then Jenna.
"Are we ready?" he asked. Everyone nodded.
"Teleport," he said, and there was a swirl of color around them. The colors dispersed, and everyone immediately shivered. Despite the fact that it was summer, Imil was still cold.
Ivan looked around. He had never seen Imil in the summer. The ground was still slightly covered with snow and ice, but a lot of it was melted, and there were puddles. And now that there were puddles, there were mosquitoes. And now that there were mosquitoes, there were birds. They quickly made their way to the local sanctum.
Inside, Meg and Justin, older than Ivan had remembered, sat dutifully at the altar. Justin was looking over a scroll with Meg, and then she looked up.
"Ivan! Garet! Jenna! Felix!" she exclaimed, and stood up. Justin looked up.
"Hey, guys!" he greeted them with a grin.
Jenna walked over.
"It's been a while, hasn't it? This is Master Hamma, Ivan's sister," she said, stepping aside and pointing to Hamma, who smiled and bowed.
Meg's mouth flew open.
"'Sister!' Oh, wow! I didn't know you had a sister, Ivan! It's such a pleasure, ma'am!" she exclaimed, curtsying to Hamma. Ivan smiled. Meg was overflowing with energy, unlike before when she was more like shy, even timid at times.
"Whoa, Ivan's got a sister?" asked Justin, and he stood up to get a look at Master Hamma, who nodded. Ivan grinned. Meg and Justin were really friendly.
"Pleasure, ma'am," said Justin, bowing.
"We go back a long way, don't we, guys?" asked Garet with a half smile. Meg and Justin smiled, and nodded.
"So are you guys visiting?" asked Meg, grinning.
Jenna shook her head.
"No, I'm afraid we're here to see Mia about something. Is she around?" she inquired.
Meg's face fell.
"What's wrong?" she asked, and then she saw that Isaac wasn't there, even though the other Adepts from Vale were.
"Something's happened to Isaac," she said, her eyes wide. She turned to Justin.
"What? What happened?" he asked.
"Justin, get Mia. Now. She's visiting the elderly on a routine checkup," she ordered sternly.
Justin didn't argue. He got up and rushed out the door. A few seconds later he rushed in, his hand gripping a confused Mia's arm, and she was dragged in.
She blinked and looked around.
"Jenna? Garet? Ivan? Felix? Hamma?" she asked. The Adepts all smiled and nodded.
"What's this about? Justin told me something's happened to Isaac," she said, now looking concerned.
The five Adepts all told her what had happened. When they finished, Ivan expected Mia to look upset, but she looked more angry than upset.
"How dare they do that? Why? Where are they now?" she demanded.
"We don't know. We're going to find them, Mia, and we're going to find out," Felix assured her.
"Alright, I'll start packing now. Meet me at Imil gates. Meg, Justin, I hope to be back soon, please take good care of everyone while I'm gone," Mia said, and then she stormed out of the sanctum.
When she was gone, Meg looked at Justin.
"Whoa," she said.
"You're tellin' me!" he said.
"Hey, while she's packing, let's go to the inn for food. I'm hungry," said Garet. Jenna turned from Meg and Justin to him.
"Garet, you just ate a huge breakfast!" she fumed.
Felix muttered to Ivan:
"We're getting a lot of angry girls today, eh, Ivan?"
Ivan chuckled and nodded.
"I-I was just kidding, Jenna!" Garet said, holding up his arms in surrender.
"Better have been," she muttered.
"I think we should head for the gate," voiced Hamma. The Adepts nodded.
And they were off.
