-Sigh- Chapter 9..
Lloyd: What's wrong with you?
Me: The most reviews I get for each chapter is three... I mean three reviews! Do I only have that much readers?! -sigh-
Lloyd: It's still good for your first story, isn't it?!
Me: Yeah, you're right! Thanks Lloyd!
Lloyd: ...
Me:What?! What is it?
Cameron: Hi!
Lloyd: H-hi...
Me: -Sigh- Stupid OC taking over my muse... Lloyd!
Lloyd: -Staring at Cameron-
Me: -Sigh- I, Game-girl209 does not own Tales of Symphonia, except my self-insert, Erin. On with the story... -Sigh-
''I am gonna fight you in the future, just so you know,'' I informed Sheena as we walked through the cave.
''I know. So will I. However, I will help you out of here, please don't speak to anyone of this. They might get the wrong impression. Either they think I was thinking to get to them from you or they might think you are helping me to assassinate the Chosen,'' Sheena informed.
''I won't, but how does that benefit you in any way?'' I asked.
''Heh. You could easily tell them of where I am from, and I don't think that would be a good idea, since it would probably start a panic. Though, I want to save my world, I see this world is far worse off. I want to asssassinate the Chosen, nothing else.''
I nodded, ''I see. Thanks for not killing me.''
''Just keep up your end of the deal, and don't expect me to do it again.''
We were at the end of tunnel/passage way when Sheena said, ''I see you are in no condition to fight, so that's one less person to worry about,'' she examined my back. ''Pretend you are running away from me, other wise they will get suspicous.''
''Thank you,'' I nodded again.
Sheena kicked the door, wood, thing down and I spotted Lloyd and the others examining the it as it fell.
''Hey!!'' I ran over to them, pretending to be scared of Sheena.
''You better keep a closer eye on your little friend, or she might end up headless, next time,'' Sheena smirked. ''Now! Prepare to die!''
She ran at us, while I got out of the battle field.
She summoned her guardian, and went to attack Lloyd and Colette, while Kratos was busy with the guardian and Genis and Raine was casting.
''WIND BLADE!!'' Genis called out his new tech, as it aimed for the ninja's guardian.
''LIGHT SPEAR!'' Kratos' sword swiftly thruster into the air to the guardian and stabbed the creature as it collided with the ground. It evaporated away into nothingness.
With everyone on Sheena now, she was beginning to have difficulty in shielding and doging all their attacks, not being able to attack them herself. With the shout from Lloyd, ''DEMON FANG!!'' She fell to her knees, and 'swore' to kill us all next time.
I ran over to them when the she 'poofed' away. Reminds me of Ocarina of Time when the sheikahs used the deku nuts...Hm... Right back to the point!
''Are all you alright?!'' I asked everyone. They seemed uninjured. I let out a sigh of relief.
''What about you?! You were stuck down there with that assassin!'' Genis asked.
''I'm fine. I was lucky she didn't use me as bait, or kill me,'' I stated.
''I'm glad you're fine! But why is there people trying to kill us?!'' Lloyd asked.
''There some people who reject Salvation,'' Kratos answered.
''Yeah. I don't know why, but there is always someone who doesn't want change for the better,'' I added.
''I wonder who she is... She didn't seam like a Desian,'' Lloyd pointed out.
''True. Her clothes were unusual.'' Genis said.
''At any rate we should get out of here and set up camp. It's getting late,'' Kratos suggested.
''Yeah, that was tiring, trying fight off an assassin,'' Lloyd yawned.
We set up camp where I finally decided to tell Lloyd that I was from Earth. 'But will he understand, will he still trust me? Of coarse he would he's Lloyd!' I fought with myself.
''Hey, the sky is very clear tonight, isn't it,'' I jumped. Lloyd sat on the ground beside me.
I nodded, ''Yeah.'' Dammit! Tell him already!' ''Lloyd... I need to tell you something...'' I barely whispered, hoping he might not have heard me.
''What? What is it?'' He asked. 'Dammit'
''I-I- I was lying to you, before,'' I stuttered.
''Lying? What about?'' he asked.
''... I'm not a traveler, I'm not from Hima, my family wasn't killed by Desians. I've never handled a sword before. I'm not from Slyvaravt,'' I blunted out.
''What?! What are you talking about?! If you're not from Slvarant then...'
''I'm from Earth, a different planet, I-I some how got sent here...''
''Really? So you were just lying about your family, your life, your self!!''
''No, I wasn't lying. I wasn't lying about myself, this is who I really am, this is how I act.''
''What about your family?! Were you lying about that too?!!!''
''Yes. My family is back on Earth, they aren't dead, only my father is.''
''So them dreams, all the times you cried about your family, they're all lies?!!'' He stood up.
''No. I did have them dreams, I really did. I don't know why though. I-I did really cry about my family I missed them so much, I still do.'' I stood in front of him.
''So-so you were lying all this time... to everyone and- and me...''
''Yes. I'm sorry. I-I didn't think you would believe me or accept me. I'm so sorry, Lloyd!''
''You dork!'' he looked at me.
''What?!''
''Of course we would've accepted you! Wait how do you so much about this place?!''
''In my world, your story is told, though it said to be fictional, I know your story. I know what will happen, what has happened, what should happen.''
''You know the future?'' he asked.
''Y-yes. I made up my story so that I wouldn't be questioned by it. So you wouldn't rely so much on me. And not blame me for what has to happen, because the future is so bleak. I was selfish! I'm sorry!''
''... I understand. It's...ok.'' Lloyd sat back down on the grassy ground.
''You do?'' I sat beside him.
''You were just trying to protect yourself, you were afraid, because of where you're from, what knowledge you have, you did that because you protecting yourself from getting hurt, I understand. Anyway it's kinda cool to have a friend from another world!'' He grinned.
''Lloyd!'' I wrapped him in bear hug, ''Thank you so much!''
He hugged back, ''Heheh! Sorry, for going all mad there a while ago.''
''No! It's fine! Thank you for understanding!'' I released him from the hug.
''No problem! So, can I know my future?!'' he asked.
''I-Sorry, Lloyd. It will disturb the time line,'' I apologized.
''Awww! I suppose...'' he sighed. ''What can you tell me about your world?!'' he grinned.
''Heh! It's fairly complicated. 'Cause it's so different,'' I started.
''I'm listening...'' he stated urging me to go on.
So what felt like minutes was actually hours, when I was finished telling Lloyd, enough of what Earth was like.
''What I don't get though is why do they call it 'Earth'? I mean it reminds you dirt,'' Lloyd said when I was finished.
''I actually don't get it either! I mean it's mostly covered by water. Why don't they just call it 'Water' or 'Auqa' or something?'' I anwered.
''You're planet is weird,'' Lloyd stated.
''I could say the same thing about your planet, I mean come on! Evil rabbits! I don't think even the rivers near a nuclear power plant has them kinda animals!''
''Nuclear power plant?''
''Never mind.''
''I'm the only one who knows this, right?''
''Well, nope! Kratos does!''
''How come ya told him and not me?!''
''H-Hey! He glared at me! Have you seen them glares?! There terrifying! They just make you wanna curl up in a ball and die! That and he would have killed me other wise.''
''Yeah! Them glares are terrifying!'' Lloyd agreed.
Then we somehow got into a half an hour conversation about Kratos' glares. weird! I must say! WEIRD!
We were forced to go to sleep when Raine started attacking us with a book she had. She didn't even give us a warning! She just walked over to us and started attacking us with the Moter Book she was suppose to give to Lloyd. And it was a big book! So we went to sleep groaning over the pain of our heads from the terrifying lady and her big book.
The next morning, we, I mean Lloyd and I, woke up with splitting head-aches.
''Owww... Stupid head ache!'' I groaned.
''Stupid, Professor.. oww....'' Lloyd rubbed his head as the both of us walked over to Genis who was making breakfast.
''What's wrong with you two?'' Genis asked stirring a pot of I-havent-got-a-clue! Which means it will be really nice.
''Professor..'' Lloyd sat down.
''Evil big book...'' I rubbed my head in pain.
''Huh?'' Genis asked simply.
''Maybe you should of gone to bed earlier!'' Raine came over.
''We might have if you give us a warning!'' I replied. That gave me a hit in the head with an even bigger book. ''Oww! Raine!''
''Professor! It's true! All we seen was a crazy, angry, lady with a book! And found out it was you!'' Lloyd got another as well. ''Owww!! Professor!''
''Don't say that again! You disturbed me from my research last night! And I do not like it when I am disturbed!'' Raine argued and left.
''You two got it bad!'' Genis informed us. We nodded at the same time still rubbing our heads. ''Ya sure you two aren't long lost brother and sister?! You act to much alike!'' Genis exclaimed. ''Not as far as I know!'' Lloyd answered.
''Yeah, anyway, I have a family.'' I agreed.
''You could be adopted. Lloyd was,'' Genis explained.
''Genis! 1) I had a sister who is a few months older then Lloyd! So that would be impossible! 2) The only way Lloyd and I are alike is we both have brown hair and act similar! And 3) I can never imagine Lloyd as a brother! So I don't think we're related,'' I pointed out.
''Geez! Alright, I'll let it die! Ya don't have to be so overreacting about it...'' he went back to cooking.
Lloyd and I was sitting on hill when he asked.
''What's so wrong with being related to me?!''
''Nothing is. It's just I can't think of you as brother!'' I replied.
''I thought you said I remind you of your brother.''
''You do. It's just I don't think of you as a brother...'' I trailed.
''Oh so I'm down graded to a friend, now am I?''
''No! I think of you more than just a mere friend!'' 'Wait! Did I just say that?' I thought.
''Like a best friend?''
''Yeah, sorta...'' I answered.
''Oh! Okay!'' he exclaimed.
''Breakfast is ready!'' Genis called. Lloyd ran over to the 'elf' boy.
I continued to ponder about what I said.
'I think of you more than just a mere friend!' Did I actually say that?! Do I mean that?! Does that mean-?! Oh no! Do I love Lloyd?! No! This is bad! The story will probably get messed up! Colette and Lloyd is suppose to be Canon, right?! Dammit! Not to mention, that Lloyd is 5 years older than me! And I have a home to go to! I'll never be able to leave Lloyd! Dammit! This is messed up! And Lloyd doesn't even like me that way! I mean he has Colette! A childhood friend! Who am I then?! Am I just some stranger in his life?! Or someone he thinks as a close friend? Or even more...? I hope for everyone's sake that this doesn't disturb the story, in a more destructive way. Why would that happen?! Am I just being paranoid? I don't know... All I know is this is bad!! I mean-
My thoughts were cut off when Lloyd shoved a bowl of soup into my face. I looked up at his grinning face. Speak of the devil!
''Here you haven't eaten anything all morning. Unless you're not hungry and I can eat it?!'' he pleeded.
''Maybe next time,'' I said grabbing the bowl.
He sat down beside me. I felt really awkward. Really awkward! I mean, after finding out something like that I tend to be awkard when someone when I really like him and he shoves food at my face. I mean, who wouldn't feel awkard?!
''You sure you gonna eat that?!'' Lloyd asked. ''You've mean stirring it for like a minute,'' he pointed to the bowl of soup.
I blushed, ''R-right! Sorry, I was thinking about stuff.''
''No worries!'' Lloyd finished his soup and layed his back down on the grassy hill we were staying on.
I finished mine and lied down as well. There was silence. Until Lloyd broke it, ''It's nice. isn't it?'' I gave a questioning look. ''The sky, I mean.'' he stared at the blue sky as the clouds floated by.
I nodded in agreement.
''You know, I'm jealous of Colette, even though I shouldn't be. She has to go through all that pain on her own, but I'm still jealous. Jealous of her wings. I've always wanted to fly. As far as I can remember, I always felt the need to fly. I have this feeling that I was flying before, but I can't remember it...'' Lloyd confessed.
AWWW! Kratos must have taken him flying when he was a baby, awww! I quickly left that thought and turned my attention to Lloyd.
''I think we all want to be free sometime. You know, just spread our wings and fly, not having a care in the world,'' I informed him. ''Leaving all your problems behind and just be free from the world's problems and just enjoying the freedom.''
''Yeah. But I can't do that. Even if I had wings, I would never run away from my mistakes. Never!'' Lloyd said.
''I know, Lloyd. Sorry! I was just saying my point of view, my thoughts, sorry,'' I apologized.
''It's fine. Don't worry about it!'' He smiled getting up. I got up as well.
Genis called for us to come down from the hill.
Lloyd grinned at me, ''Wanna race?!''
''Sure!'' I grinned back.
We raced down the green hill towards our 'elven' friend. Heh! I like it here! I thought running for the finish line that was the sandy path at the bottom of the hill.
Lloyd: You love me?!!
Me: Yeah, I thought that would me ki- Hey you're talking again!
Lloyd: You love me?!?!?!
Me; Yeah, so...? What's the big deal?
Lloyd: .... I-I- You're not one of them crazy Fangirls, are you?!
Me: I'm a fangirl, but I'm not crazy.
Lloyd: Whew! Wait! You love me?!?!?!?!
Me: Yes! Why is it such a big deal?!
Lloyd: N-no reason!
Cameron: Hey, Lloyd!
Lloyd: Hey, Cam! Wait! This is too weird!
Me: You're not lovesick over her anymore! Yay! You're back!
Cameron: Huh?!
Lloyd: I- this is too weird! You actually like me?!
Me: Yes! Now, gone stop making a big deal out of it!
Lloyd: S-sorry... I-I gotta go.... -Runs away-
Cameron: Hey, Lloyd comeback! -Runs after Lloyd-
Me: Uhhh....? That was weird... Please review! Please! I want reviews! Please! I'm begging you! Ok you did not read that last part! Review!!!!
