Me: Hello people! This is a short chapter.

Genis: It really is, why is it short?

Me: Because whenever I'm writing a chapter, I always decide where I'm going to stop before I start writing.

Genis: This seems like a filler chapter.

Me: Yeah I know. Oh, for all the readers, I want to ask if you think Sarah should have wings or not, and if so, should they be blue, red, purple or silver?

Genis: She owns nothing.


I had started going back to Iselia with Sammy when I ran into the Colette, Genis, Kratos, and Raine.

"Hi Sarah!" Colette chirped.

"Were you guys on your way to Lloyd's house?" I asked.

"Yep! What were you doing out here?" Colette asked.

"I was just at Lloyd's house asking Dirk to fix my sword," I replied.

"Oh, okay. Is that your dog?" Colette asked.

"Yeah, this is Sammy. At least someone is able to tell Sammy's a dog," I said.

Colette walked up to Sammy and started petting her. She then started to act like she does with the dogs that you see in the game.

"My name is Raine Sage, I'll also be going on the Regeneration Journey," Raine said, walking up to me.

"I'm Sarah, it's nice to meet you," I replied.

"So you're the traveler. I must agree, you are a bit young to travel on your own," Raine commented.

"How old do you think I am?" I asked.

"At the least 15," Raine said.

"I'm 17," I corrected.

"Oh, I'm sorry," Raine said.

"No need to apologize, it's all right," I replied.

"Shouldn't we keep going? It's dangerous here at night," Genis reminded.

"Yeah, that would probably be best. I'll go with you guys," I said.

So we started walking again.

"So how long has Sammy been with you?" Colette asked.

"Since I was 13. My aunt gave her to me when she heard I was leaving to travel. Sammy was just a puppy then," I replied.

"I bet Sammy was a cute when she was a puppy," Colette said.

"She was a fat puppy."

Colette giggled and asked, "How old is Sammy?"

"She 4 years old," I replied.

"Only 4 and that big?!" Genis asked surprised.

"Yep. I think that's the reason my aunt gave me Sammy, because she'll be able to protect me," I responded.

"How many pets did you have?" Colette asked.

"Let's see… before I left I had three dogs, including Sammy, and two cats," I replied.

"Wow, you had a lot," Genis commented.

"Not really, it was easy taking care of all of them. The max that I've had to take care of is, I think, seven," I replied.

"Wow…" Genis said.

"It's easy when you don't live in town," I replied.

"I thought you lived in Luin?" Colette said, confused.

"Well, I lived close to Luin and I had to walk there everyday. So, you know what I mean, right?" I explained.

"Yeah, your like Lloyd," Colette said.

"What's the school in Luin like?" Genis asked.

"They needed to teach harder stuff. Most of what they taught I already knew," I answered.

The conversation continued on until we got to Lloyd's house. There everything happened and Lloyd was going around, talking to everyone.

I was by Noishe's pen with Sammy next to me. I was petting Noishe, waiting to go back to the village.

"So you like animals, huh?" Lloyd asked, coming up to me.

"Yeah. Some times it's hard to know who you can trust and who you can't. But I know I'll always be able to trust Sammy," I replied.

"Don't worry, you can always trust me too," Lloyd said smiling.

"Thanks, I've had enough people betray my trust. It's good to know there's someone I can count on," I said, smiling.

"You've had a really hard time with trust, huh?" Lloyd asked.

"Yeah. Just when I thought that my closest friends were always going to be there, they betrayed my trust and abandoned me," I explained.

"Wow, that… must have been really hard."

"I'm pretty sure I'm over it. I'm just more careful with who I trust now. Why don't you go talk to Colette, she's been waiting."

"Yeah, I was just about to go talk to her after I talked to you. See ya."

I nodded and he walked over to Colette.

After they went inside, I waited there with Sammy and Noishe.

"So, Sammy, are you up for this Journey? It'll be long," I said, just loud enough for Sammy to hear.

Sammy whine, then licked my face.

"Heh, thanks. I knew I could count on you to be there for me."

After a bit Raine and Genis went up to get Colette. When they came back down, I went over to our group and we waved "bye" to Lloyd who was still on the terrace.

When we got back to the village Sammy went over to the fence and went to sleep.

"Sarah, do you wanna stay at my house?" Colette asked.

"Are you sure?" I asked.

"Yes."

"Alright then. Thanks Colette," I replied.

"No problem, c'mon! I already told my dad and grandmother," Colette chirped and led me to her house.

When we got there Frank and Phaidra greeted us. Then Colette led me up to her room.

Colette went of to her closet and pulled out some sheets and a pillow.

"So when are we leaving?" I asked.

"We'll be leaving around dawn," Colette answered and started setting up the sheets.

I went over and started helping.

"I've never had another girl for a friend before. It's always been Lloyd, Genis, and I," Colette said.

"Really? Well now I feel special," I joked.

Colette giggled, "But everyone's special in their own way."

"I know. Everyone is born different, but so many die copies," I quoted.

"Huh? What does that mean?" Colette asked.

"It means that even though everyone is born different, there are many people who become like others just to fit in, then they die copies," I explained.

"Oh, I see what you mean," Colette replied.

"Heh, that's the reason I didn't have many friends. It's because I liked being different and people called me weird, and other things like that. I did what I wanted to do, not what others did," I said.

"Well, I think you're a good person and not weird at all! It's just who you are," Colette smiled.

We finished setting up the sheets.

"Thanks Colette. More people should just be who they want to be, then they'd actually find true friends," I said.

"I think your right!" Colette said.

"You know, your one of the first people to agree with me," I said.

Colette smiled and said, "We should probably get to sleep. Tomorrow is going to be the first day of our journey."

"Yeah, you're right, tomorrow is going to be tiresome," I agreed.

"You take the bed, okay?"

"No, it's okay. I'm use to sleeping on the ground, you take the bed."

"Are you sure?"

"Yep," I answered.

"Okay then, you can borrow one of my night shirts," Colette said and went over to her dresser to pull out two night shirts, one white, one black.

"I'll go to the bathroom to change," Colette said, handing me the black night shirt. She then rushed out before I could say anything.

I just shrugged and started to change. After I changed, I noticed my pendant and exsphere. I usually fell asleep with my pendant still on, but I wasn't sure about my exsphere. That's when Colette came back in.

"Give me your clothes so that they'll be washed for tomorrow, okay?" Colette said.

"Alright," I replied and picked up my clothes, handing them to her.

She walked off and came back after a short time.

"Okay, now we can go to sleep," Colette chirped.

"Thanks Colette, your being really polite," I said.

"It's no problem," Colette chirped.

"Huh? What's that?" she asked, looking at my exsphere.

"Oh, I forgot about that. This is my exsphere."

"It's really pretty!" She chirped.

"Thanks," I replied and took it off, handing it to her to look at. "Here, you can look at it."

Colette picked it up carefully and examined it.

"Where did you get your exsphere?"

I paused and thought about quickly.

"Um, my brother gave it to me. Right before he disappeared," I answered.

"Oh, I'm sorry."

"No, no, it's okay. Don't worry about it. Let's just get some rest."

"Okay," Colette nodded and handed back my exsphere.

We walked over to our beds and laid down.

"Good night, Sarah!"

"Good night, Colette."


Me: Maybe I should have made this chapter longer?

Genis: You just finished making a long chapter yesterday.

Me: Okay you have a point.

Genis: Please review.

Me: Yes, please review and please vote on whether she should have wings or not and if so, should they be blue, red, purple, or silver. Because I have a plot line in my head for if she should have wings.
