Ultimate Paradise

So here we are again. We join our hero, Blue the Fire Mage, still traveling the world with no destination in mind. It's been 2 years since the battle against The Iblis and he's grown a lot stronger.

Blue is traveling on board a pirate ship making it's way to the port town, Regalite, for its world famous pub. How long he'll stay with the pirate crew, he isn't sure. One of the female pirates, Lilia, approaches Blue and speaks to him. And this is where the story begins anew.

Lilia: Ah, there you are, Fire Mage. I've been looking for you.

I'll continue on with this as soon as I know what the heck I'm writing. I just wanted to get a reintroduction going.

so, shall I appear in this one, too?

Beats me. If you want to, I guess.

I guess I could go just a little further, until they get to Regalite City.

Blue: Yeah, what's up?

Lilia: Oh nothing really, just thought I'd come say hi since you've haven't spoken since you've been with us.

Blue: Ah, sorry about that. I'm just thinking about stuff.

Lilia: No problem! So, did you hear about what happened two years ago? The previous Lord of Jahannam, The Iblis, was killed. So now there's a new Lord, and we're looking for him. We wanna snag that jewel of his. We hear it's worth a pretty penny.

Blue: !!!

Lilia: Hmm? Is something wrong?

Blue: No. Nothing at all.

Lookout: Land ho, Captain! Thar be Regalite City!

Captain: Ah, thar she be indeed.

*The pirate ship arrives at the port*

Captain: Come blokes, we be dismounting. To the Regalite Pub!

Lilia: Aw, looks like it's time for me to go. Won't you come with us?

Blue: Uh, I don't think so. I think it's better if we parted ways.

Lilia: Awwwwww! Please!? I wanna spend a little more time with you! Come on, it'll be fun!

Blue: Erm...

Lilia: Please!?!?

Blue: Agh, fine, but you're buying.

Lilia: Ha ha, wow. You sure know how to treat a lady.

Captain: Lilia! Come here now! The Pub awaits!

Lilia: Aye Captain! Come on, Fire boy, let's GOOOOOOO!

*Lilia grabs Blue's arm and pulls him along*

Blue: Aaaaahhhh! (Oh what did I get myself into this time?)

( So, should I jump in now, or wait until later? Yay for sequels! )

Sure, jump right on it. Whatever you decide to do, I'll work with it.

( Alright! )

*is sitting in the pub at a table in the corner, with a cloak on and my hood drawn up over my head to make me look mysterious*

Man, I've had almost no business lately. I've even tried looking all mysterious and stuff. Normally, that attracts the seedy types. For some reason, it's not working. *sigh* Oh well, I just got to keep my head up. Although.....I wonder why Bob sent me to this pub of all places. He knows I don't drink!

*is coincidentally at the same pub, drinking some Sprite*

So, I'm a moron. Is this some kind of story/rpg mix thing?

I feel dumb.

*At the Regalite Pub, the Pirates are drinking and singing and having a merry time*

Lilia: Hey Fire Mage, come on and grab a seat next to me!

Blue: Uh, sure. *sits next to Lilia*

Bartender: What'll you have?

Lilia: Give me the strongest drink you got!

Bartender: Alright, one Jahannam Splash coming right up.

Blue: (Uh oh. That drink has crushed Jahannam rocks in it! It'll react to my Jewel and give me away!)

Bartender: And you, sir?

Blue: I'll have nothing. I was just getting ready to leave.

Lilia: What!? Not again! You said you were going to stay!

Blue: Uh, I changed my mind, I really need to go, now.

*Blue gets up to leave*

Bartender: Here's your drink, young lady.

Lilia: Thanks! Huh? *The drink starts to glow bright red* Is this supposed to happen?

Blue: Damn, too late. *The Jahannam Jewel begins to shine a blinding red light*

Zeldafan/Jawo: Whoa, is that who I think it is? Yup, it's Blue!

*The Pirates stop their partying and direct their gazes at Blue*

Captain: What!? There! He has the Jahannam Jewel! Get him!

Lilia: Ah! Oh no! Fire Mage! I can't let this happen!

Hmm, kinda. It's more just a story that me and a few other users (IE, Zeldafan and a little Jawo) tell together. I handle the main stuff, the others input their own dialogue.

I see. Alright then...

*Woosh!*

That your cue you guys. I can't continue until you take action.  :(

im waiting for a response from zeldafan as I am in the same pub as her and she hasnt noticed me yet! >_>
Fine, i'll make first contact!!
*story continues*
*sees ZeldaFan across the room*
*waves* I remember you!

Oh fine. I'll just continue on without you guys for the moment. Anyways...

*The Pirates rush towards Blue with Cutlasses ready*

Blue: Hmm, bystanders may get hurt, but it's the only way! Take this! *Casts a Flare Storm spell catching several of the pirates in a whirl of Fire* Ha, and now I take my leave. *runs out of the Pub*

Lilia: Fire Mage! Wait for me! *Lilia follows him*

Captain: Grrr! After him!

*Captain and the remainder of the crew chase Blue through the city*

Blue: Mmmn, I can't let them follow me. This'll get em off my back. *Casts Fire Stream spell, blasting back the pirates, allowing Blue to makes his escape*

Lilia: *Dodges Fire Stream* Whoa! Watch where you're aiming that thing!

Blue: Huh? Lilia!? Why are you following me? Aren't you one of them?

Lilia: Of course, but you're my friend. I don't wanna see you get harmed. So I'm gonna tag along with you. Wherever you go, I'll be there with you!

Blue: Guh, fine. Just..just keep running, until we get far away from this place.

Lilia: Right. Onward to adventure!

*Meanwhile*

Captain: Argh, he got away. That little rat. And that Lilia, she betrayed us. I'll have her head for this. This isn't over Fire Mage. That jewel will be mine.

*At the Pub*

Zeldafan: That's just like Blue to ruin the place with a spell going haywire. *sigh*

Jawo: Yah, and I didn't even get to finish my drink. *looks at glass shattered due to the spell*

(Now the two of you decide your next course of action)

( Sorry, my mom kicked me off the computer. Arg, curse her and her computer hogging ways! )

Well, if Blue's here, then chances are that something exciting is going to happen! And this time, Bob's not around to spoil my fun! I don't know about you, Jawo', but I'm going to see what Blue-kun's gotten himself into this time. *pulls bokuto out of an extra-dimensional storage space* Hehehe, alright, here I come! *runs out of pub* Errrr.....if I knew which way Blue-kun went.

*looks around randomly* Hey, I smell something burning that way....Blue must have headed there! Ok Blue-kun! I'm coming! *begins to run in Blue's direction*

Meh, I just want him to pay for my drink he ruined!
*tags along for the hell of it*

I'll appear later on, I guess. I'm going to be gone the rest of the day through Monday, so wait for me on Tuesday.  ;)

Ha! Now that's more like it. Time for a real adventure this time. Now let's get started.

*Blue and Lilia continue running until they reach the next closest city, Awedon City*

Blue: Phew, I think we can stop running now.

Lilia: Good, I couldn't keep that up for much longer. Let's go take a break at the inn over there.

Blue: Sounds good.

*At the inn, Blue and Lilia sit at a table and have a nice coffee*

Lilia: Fire Mag- I mean, erm, Blue, I had no idea you were the new Lord of Jahannam. That's so amazing!

Blue: Uh yeah, real amazing. As fun as it may have been, it almost cost me my life.

Lilia: True, but if you're the new Lord, why aren't you in Jahannam doing your stuff?

Blue: Jahannam is an infinite black space, devoid of life. There's no way I'd confine myself to that place. I don't see what's so great about it anyway.

Lilia: If you don't like it, then why are you keeping that jewel?

Blue: Because...it's important to me. It's a testament to my changing myself. My original intention was to kill The Iblis and take over the world with my new found power. But then, I decided none of it was worth it. I just wanted to rid the world of Iblis.

Lilia: Wow. I'm so happy for you. But..but now, what do we do? Can we really have no destination in mind?

Blue: Uh, I'm not so sure. I haven't had any real goals since that time. *sigh* I wonder where Zeldafan and Bob are. How I'd love to go on an adventure with those two again.

Lilia: Huh? Who's Zeldafan and Bob?

Blue: Zeldafan is a young lady I came across during my attempt to get into Jahannam. She was extremely helpful and provided me with the proper incantation. Bob is, well, he's Zeldafan's enigmatic boss. Don't know much else about him besides that he's a really powerful summoner. I couldn't have beaten the Iblis without him.

Lilia: They sound like really fun people. I hope we bump into them again, I'd love to meet them!

Blue: Yeah, so would-Huh!?

*The inn doors slam open, revealing two figures, one male, one female*

Blue: Wah! Can it be!? Zeldafan!! And what the? That interloper!?

Zeldafan: Blue-kun! I found you at last!

Jawo: I knew we'd find him sooner or later. Now you're gonna pay for my drink you little punk.

Blue: Hoo boy. Come have a seat the two of you.

(Now Zeldafan, if you would please, can you establish the plot for us?)

*still possessing the Water Ring*
You better get me my drink, you foolish pyro!

Blue: Oh man, but I don't have any money on me. It's gonna have to wait.

Lilia: Oh Blue, don't worry about it. I'll pay for Mr. Jawo's drink. Hey innkeeper! Get Mr. Jawo here whatever drink he wants. Just put it on my tab.

Blue: Mmmn, whatever drink he wants. You don't have to be so nice, you know.

So Blue, I see you have a new friend. Anyways, I was wondering if you're doing anything important right now. I mean, if you're not....there's always that rumor I heard about.

Rumor?

Oh, I see I've gotten your attention Jawo'. Yes, I herd a very, very interesting rumor. Something about some mysterious sightings of something that keeps on talking about Iblis. Looking for its killer or something. I doubt any of you would be interested.

Lilia: The killer of Iblis? That'd be you, Blue! It looks like someone's after you.

Blue: Mmmn, continue on, Zeldafan. I just have to hear this.

Excuse me!

Is there someone called "Blueannihi-something" here?

Oh? So you are interested. Well, I've done a bit of my own research into this. After all, I have quite the network of allies. Apparently, Ibilis had an old.....er, I guess the closest term would be partner. I mean, they weren't really friends or allies or anything, but they would work together. This being, would lead people into Jahannam. And Iblis would...well, I think you can figure that one out on your own.  So anyways, Iblis, in return, gave this being a portion of his power. It was a tense agreement, but one the benefited both parties involved. So anyways, from what I hear, this being is angry that someone killed Iblis, and know he wants to hunt this person down, kill them, and become the Ruler of Jahannam. Oh, and I hear this thing is a shape shifter too. That's all I really know.

( I have to go for now, but I may be back on kind of soon )

Yes, Blue-something-or-other is just listening to that mady finishing her talk about Iblis

Ah, I see. Thank you. *Walks over to them*

Blue: If, if this is all true, then...then that means he could be anyone!

Lilia: Blue, we have to do something about this. If we just laze about, he could strike us down at any moment.

Blue: You're right, Lilia. But what do we do? Where do we go? We can't find this guy by just looking for him, you know. There's no way to tell who he is....or is there!?

Lilia: What do you mean?

Blue: I mean, there's gotta be some kind of spell of some sort that can allow us to see through his shape shifting.

Lilia: Blue! You can't go off of simple speculation!

Blue: We have no choice, and besides, even if one doesn't exist currently, there's always a way to make one. The only problem, I don't have the skill to do that.

Lilia: Then that means we have to track down a really skilled magician. Blue, we have no time to waste!

Blue: Right. Zeldafan, you're pretty worldly. Do you know of anyone with the skills I seek? Either way, we're gonna need your help with this one. Will you accompany me and Lilia on this journey? We'd love to have you along.

Lilia: Yeah! Please help us, Zeldafan.

And I'm assuming you want to join my little group in the story as well. If that's what you want, hurry and make yourself known.

Well....let's see. Bob....all he knows is summoning and a couple of utility spells. But even if he doesn't know a spell that can reveal a shape shifter, he may have colleagues that know one. I'll try to get in contact with him. But before I go to find him....we need some way to be able to recognize each other. Hold on a second. *rummages around my cloak with extra-dimensional storage a bit* Now where did I put it....let's see.....spare bokuto....Kusanagi.....Excaliber.....Material Blades.....bottled fairy.....pudding cup.....aha! Here it is! *pulls out a small scroll and quill* This is a gift from Bob. Anyone who signs it is...how did he put it...."in my party." There will be a special magical aura around them that's only detectable to my fellow "party" members, and it's impossible to imitate. As you can see, right now the only signatures on it are Bob, myself, Tobi, and Link. Blue, I want you and your friend to sign this. Also....we should have Jawo' sign it just in case this shape shifter guy tries to impersonate him. Alright guys? So, sign away! *puts scroll and quill on table*

I thought you wrote the story <_< Oh well.


Are you aware that there is a bounty for you? A big bounty actually. All I wanted was to know if you needed any help? Trust me, I've seen this kind of thing before, and you'll soon be overrun by bountyhunters. And, no offence of course, I doubt that you, that girl, and that...that sprite man over there, can take them by yourselves.

So, I'm just offering my help. Of course, it's your choice. I wanted to warn you, and ask if I may help you. I've done that.

Lilia: Come on, Blue. Let's sign it. *Lilia signs scroll*

Blue: Yeah, this should help us feel a little more secure while traveling. *Blue signs scroll*

Jawo: I guess I'll sign too, but don't think I'm with you guys or anything. *Jawo signs scroll*


(I DID write the story) >_>

Blue: Hmm? You're talking to us?

Lilia: Let's let him join us, Blue. We need all the help we can get.

Blue: But Lilia, we can't go trusting everyone who offers to help.

Lilia: And we're not in the position to be picky either. We're desperate here.

Blue: Guh, fine. Hey you, what's your name?

ILS: Just call me...ILS.

Lilia: Welcome to the team, ILS!

Blue: Good. You're with us from now on.

(Btw, ILS. I'm taking over your dialogue in the story. I have...plans with your character and it's quite necessary. Just tell me your personality and how you fight and I'll take it from there)

Blue: So now that that's settled, where do we go now? It's about time we got out of here. I'd assume Zeldafan would to find Bob by her lonesome, for reasons unknown. So that leaves us with nowhere to go.

Lilia: If that's true, then how about we go and try to find a spell creator on our own?

Blue: I don't know, those people are hard to come by, and I don't wanna get too separated from Zeldafan.

Lilia: Agh! Then what do you suggest we do, huh? Hmph, you're always so undecisive.

That's fine by me  ;D

As my sig suggests, I am a perverted person. I usually joke around a lot, even during fights, but on rare occasions, I can actually get serious.

It might be a little difficult to actually describe my fighting style, but I'll try.

I basically fight by using two swords, one in each hand. I transfer my mana around my body to where it is needed (I.E. to my legs if I need to run fast, and to my arms if I need strength and so forth). By using all my remaining mana, I can summon my entire anime girl army. They are like Naruto's shadow clones, just weaker. When they are hurt too much, they just dissappear, but there is litterally hundreds of them.

Now comes the tricky part. I can relatively easily summon my three anime girl elites from my army. They are:

Sheena: A hothead, and tough girl. She get's pissed at almost anything resembling an insult, and never gives up. Hates me for my perverted nature. Is gravely annoyed by Naru, who is usually trying to tease her. She relies all on her strength.

Naru: The joker. She's always looking for fun, and often goes to great lengths to find it. She's never rude (I.E she never tells people to shut up) But she can be very very annoying. Usually ends her sentences with the faces :3 or X3. She relies on her speed.

Yuki: The stereotypical sweet one. She wants everyone to be happy, which is basically impossible, considering the nature of the others. She is a very skilled magician.

Basically the hard thing is that you're not only writing for me, but for my elites too. However, you don't HAVE to use them, but if you do, I would appreciate it. But it's not required.

Yeah, I am going to have to find Bob on my own. He's so mysterious that he's usually really difficult to find, and it'll be faster if I travel by myself. But that's why I had you sign the scroll. *puts scroll back in cloak* Alright, here's how the aura works. If you see one of the people that are considered one of my "party" members, if you focus a little bit on them....like, you kind of have to spiritually focus on them, you'll see a small white aura around them, as well as a giant green arrow above their heads. It's kind of a weird aura, but Bob designed it. He's....eccentric. Anyways, the magic seems to be working on you guys just fine, as I can already see the aura. I'm going to go off and try to find Bob. If you guys to go off and look for a spell maker of your own, I suggest you stick together. From what I've heard of this shape shifter guy, he's very manipulative. He's not one to directly confront his opponent. Instead, he'll manipulate them into a situation where they're practically powerless, and then attack. But if you guys stay in a group, he might not be able to attack you. Alright, now it's time I get going on my way. I'll meet up with you guys as soon as I find Bob and learn about that spell. *runs out the door, jumps into the air, and vanishes*

Blue: Well then I guess it's settled. We're shoving off now. To the closest city from here.

Lilia: Yay! Finally, let's get this show on the road.

ILS: Yeah, let's get to it. And you stay close by me, honey. I'll protect you. *wraps arm around Lilia*

Lilia: Ew! You jerk! *slaps ILS* I'm already starting to regret letting you come along.

ILS: Hey *sniff* that hurt.

Blue: Hey, settle down you two. Let's move.

Lilia/ILS: Right.

*Group leaves the city*

*walking through the forest*

Blue: Yah, so anyone know just what the next city is?

ILS: Hmm, if I remember correctly, it should be Huran City. Maybe we can meet some cool cuties there. Hoo hoo.

Blue: Uh, sure. Yeah, anyways...

Lilia: According to my map, it's due east of here, so we're on the right track.

ILS: Hey, quiet.

Lilia: Huh? What's up?

ILS: Do you hear that?

Lilia: Hear what? *hears rustling in the bushes* Ah! Someone's there!

Blue: Yeah, I hear it too. Alright, come on out!

*Two figures leap out of the bushes*

ILS: Hmph, bounty hunters.

Hunter 1: So you were able to sniff us out, huh?

Hunter 2: They're a little more smarter than we thought, no matter. You'll die here!

Lilia: I don't think so. *brandishes dual knives* It's time to rumble!

ILS: Hold, sweet princess. Leave this to me. I, your charming prince, will easily mop the floor with these two.

Hunter 1: You're a cheeky one, eh. Let's get him!

*Hunters lunge forward at ILS*

ILS: Ha, now watch closely. Mana charge! *sends mana to his legs and quickly slashes through both hunters at break neck speed*

Hunter 1: What!? How!? Argh!

*blood sprays from both hunters wounds and they fall dead*

ILS: Tsch, that was easy. Like I thought.

Blue: Wow, that was really something.

Lilia: Eh, he's not so great.

ILS: Oh, don't be so modest, my love. Why don't you give me a congratulatory kiss? *puckers lips*

Lilia: Agh! You beast! *punches ILS in the mouth*

ILS: *falls to the ground* Uuuuggghh...

Blue: Come on, let's keep moving.

(Was that good enough, ILS?)

That was more than satisfying XD

*looks around*
Ok, what exactly am I supposed to do now?

( Wow....your portrayal of ILS makes me think of Zelos Wilder of Tales of Symphonia.... )

~~Meanwhile, in another city~~

Arg! Where's Bob at? He said he'd meet me here. That's so like him to keep me waiting.

Bob: *appears behind ZeldaFan* Is it now, Aryll?

ACK! You scared me.....and don't call me that. I'm ZeldaFan now. And besides, "Aryll" was just a nickname.

Bob: Yes, yes....so you've said. Anyways, you come to me for help against Mephiles.

Wait, huh? Mephiles....is that the shape shifter after Blue?

Bob: He's gone by many names. Mephiles, Mephistopheles....and many others. He's very tricky. You best get out of this little adventure while you're still alive. This being....is a demon from another world.

That's all well and good, but I'm not abandoning Blue. So, just tell me a spell I can use to force a shape shifter into his true form, and we'll be good.

Bob: Hehehe, I don't think you would want to face Mephiles's true form. While shapeshifted, he can only access 50% of his true power. And besides, I do not know such a spell.  However, I do have a friend.

Well then where is this friend at?

Bob: Why, it's you! In a way.

Bob, you know I don't use any magic, and I already checked Faust's diary. It...wait a second! You said....this thing....it was once known as....

Bob: Yes, Mephistopheles....the demon who made a deal with Faust. But Faust's diary is not where we'll find the answer. ZeldaFan, you posses many artifacts. One of them can reveal the truth. It is up to you to figure out which....and before you even try, it's not the Lens of Truth, so don't bother with it.  *teleports away*

Darn it Bob! You and your vagueness. One of these days, it's going to get me killed, and I swear I'm going to come back and haunt you. Oh well, I guess I better make my way back to Blue. *begins to walk a short distance, before jumping into the air and vanishing*

Wow....your portrayal of ILS makes me think of Zelos Wilder of Tales of Symphonia....

I actually got the idea to act perverted from Zelos <_<

Blue: Wow, you really weren't kidding about those bounty hunters.

ILS: Of course, we thrive on this kind of thing.

Lilia: Just who are you exactly?

ILS: Me? Why I'm ILS. One of the top bounty hunters of the IL Clan.

Lilia: Wha! You're a bounty hunter too!? Then why aren't you trying to take in me and Blue?

ILS: Because, I figured I can make more of a profit from fighting with you rather than against you. Plus, I could never bring myself to harm a cutie like you.

Blue: Well, we're glad to have your help. We'll continue to rely on you.

ILS: Sure thing, boss.

Lilia: Oh, would you look at that? We're finally out of that forest.

Blue: Yeah, and look. Huran City is just over the horizon! Let's go!

*At the Huran City gates*

Guard: Hey hold it!

Blue: What?

Guard: You need a pass to get into this city. If don't have one, buzz off!

Lilia: Aw, come on? Can't you just let us in? Pretty please? *makes a cute pose*

Guard: No. Way.

Lilia: Ah! My cutie pose didn't work!?

ILS: Yowza! What an amazing sight! *Nosebleed*

Blue: Well, it worked on someone.

ILS: No worries, guys. I go this covered. Here you go, my man. *Hands guard city pass*

Guard: Good, you may enter.

*At the Huran City square*

Blue: Hmm, now where to begin looking? Ah! Over there! A magic school.

Lilia: Great! There's bound to be a spell creator there!

ILS: Let's roll.

*In the Magic School*

Blue: Hey, sir.

Student: Who? Me?

Blue: Yeah, you. Do you know where I can see the spell creator of this school?

Student: Uh, spell creator? Well, the top magician at the school is Lady Magalina. You should go talk to her. She's right up stairs in her office.

Blue: Thanks a lot.

*Lady Magalina's office*

Lady M: Oh, visitors. How can I help you?

Lilia: You? You're the top magician in school? But you're my age! (And she's got a better body than me. Would you just look at those knockers? Yow!)

Lady M: Yes, I may be young, but I am very gifted.

ILS: Whoa, I'll say! *walks up to Lady M and kisses her hand* Oh beauteous queen, will you share with us a spell to reveal a shape shifters true form?

Blue: Uh, yeah. What he said.

Lady M: Ah! You! Boy! Keep your dog under control! Why I never!

Lilia: *whistles* Come here, boy.

ILS: Aw, do I have to?

Lilia: YES!

Blue: Please excuse my companion here. Now, if you please, can you perhaps make us the spell?

ILS: Agh! I can't take it anymore! *runs to Lady M and starts kissing her leg*

Lady M: Aaaaaahhhh! Why you!!! *casts paralysis spell on ILS* That'll take care of you.

ILS: Guh...can't...move....lips. Must....kiss....dele...ctible....legs.

Lady M: Aaargh! Get out! Get out of my office! Get out of this school! Get out!

Blue: But milady!!

Lady M: I will not tell you again! Get out of here!

Blue: *sigh*

*Outside of school*

Lilia: Now look what you've gone and done, and we could've had the spell too.

ILS: Sor.....ry.

Lady M: *talking down to Blue from her office window* And don't you come back here with...with...with that THING again!

Blue: But what about the spell?

Lady M: Why, I don't have the ability to make such a spell. And even if I did, I'd NEVER give it to the likes of you! Now get out of my sight. *slams window shut*

Blue: Ah darn it. Let's go, you guys. There's nothing left for us in this city.

Beats me. Whatever you want, I guess.  :-\

And Zeldafan, I'm quite surprised. I was going to name the shape shifter, Mephiles too.  :o

XD

I love how you portray me.

Are you sure you can't read minds?

*At the Huran City inn*

ILS: Ah! *stretches* I can finally move again!

Lilia: Aw, and here I was hoping you'd stay paralyzed forever.

ILS: Oh my delicate rose, your thorns are ever so sharp.

Lilia: *scoffs* Whatever.

Blue: That's enough! Now let's go. To the next city.

Lilia: But Blue! We've had a long day! Let's rest first.

Blue: Alright, I guess we'll call it a day.

*in the hotel room, late at night*

Lilia: Hey Blue...

Blue: Yes, Lilia?

Lilia: Ah! Not so loud, you'll wake up that perv over there.

ILS: Zzzzzzzzz. Now now, Lilia, Lady M. There's enough ILS to go around.

Lilia: Ugh...

Blue: Ha ha ha!

Lilia: Anyways Blue, what...what do you plan to do after all of this is over?

Blue: Uh, I never really thought about it. I guess I'm going to keep traveling the world.

Lilia: But don't you want to settle down somewhere? Don't you wanna be with someone? You don't always have to be by yourself, you know.

Blue: But...but that's how it's always been. I was always alone. Since the day I was born.

Lilia: Well that's enough. You're not alone. You have friends now. You have me, Zeldafan, and even ILS and Mr. Jawo. We're your friends and your family.

Blue: Heh, thank you, Lilia.

Lilia: That's what friends are for. Ah, I'm tired. Time to hit the hay.

Blue: Yeah, night Lilia.

Lilia. Night Blue.

*Later in the night....*

Blue: Huh? Whoa!!!!

Lilia: Ah! Blue! What happened!?

ILS: Yeah, what's up? You ruined my most pleasant dream.

Blue: Someone...someone just tried to attack me. But, I was able to fend him off.

ILS: Are you serious?

Lilia: Gah, Blue. You need to be extra careful. Now let's try and get back to sleep okay?

Blue: No way. We're out of here. Now. Apparently it's not safe here anymore.

Lilia: Aw, but it's the middle of the night!

Blue: I'm sorry Lilia, but we have to move. If I go back to sleep, I may not wake up.

ILS: Blue's right. We need to set off once again.

Lilia: *sigh* Okay.

Blue: Good let's go.

*Group leaves city*

Heh heh, thanks. And it kinda makes sense. Mephiles is the main antagonist of the other Sonic game, and it had that whole Iblis thing going on too, I think. Now back to adventure.

*walking through the plains*

Lilia: Agh! It's so cold! I hate walking around at night!

ILS: Aw, come here, Lilia. I'll keep you warm.

Lilia: Not. Another. Step. Closer.

Blue: Here, Lilia. Take my cloak. *gives Lilia cloak*

Lilia: Heehee. Thanks Blue.

ILS: Hmph.

Blue: Heh, sorry, ILS.

Lilia: Ah, now if my fatigued eyes don't decieve me, the next city is Baldovain City. Just a little north of here.

ILS: Hmm, that'd be the Royal City Baldovain. Home to some of the greatest magicians. We're bound to get results there.

Blue: Yeah, let's keep moving.

*At the Baldovain City gates*

Lilia: Oh no, not another entry point.

Guard: Yes, another entry point. Now where's your pass?

Lilia: Hey, aren't you the same guard from the Huran gates?

Guard: Uh..yes. I have a family to feed, so sue me. Now, pass please and no cutie poses.

ILS: Awwww....here you go. *gives guard pass*

Guard: Ahem. Now you may enter. Enjoy your stay, and don't cause any trouble.

*At Baldovain*

Blue: Hey ILS, now where would these great magicians be?

ILS: At the Royal Palace of course. The King only employs the best of the best to work for him. It's open to the public, so we should have no trouble getting in.

Blue: Great. Let's go.

*suddenly, a rather large man passes by the group*

Lilia: Huh? It's that who I think it is?

Captain: Argh! It's you! The traitor and the bilge rat!

Lilia: Captain! You ol' bloke. What are you doing here?

Captain: Looking for you cretins, that's what. Now. Hand over that jewel and no one gets hurt.

Blue: Ha. I'll never give it to you. Now move out of the way. We've got bigger fish to fry.

Captain. Why you little! Rawr! *Captain prepares to slam fist down on Blue*

ILS: Hold it!

Captain: *Fist stops* Huh!? Ah! It's you! What are you doing with them!? Argh!

Blue: Do you know this idiot, ILS?

ILS: Yeah, well I am a bounty hunter afterall. I take down pirates for sport mostly. And this is one particular pirate that just barely escaped me. Well it won't happen again!

Captain: Argh! No! Don't come any closer! Leave me alone!

ILS: No can do. *brandishes swords*

Captain: Agh! No! I surrender! Please don't hurt me!

Lilia: Teehee. Oh captain, what a wimp you are.

ILS: Ha, since you amused the fair lady Lilia, I'll let you live. Now go on. Scat!

Captain: Yes sir! Aaaaahhhh! *runs away*

Blue: Well that was...riveting, to say the least. Now let's go to the Palace.

Lilia/ILS: Right.

*Inside the Palace*

Blue: Hey you. Maid.

Maid: Yes sire?

Blue: Can you direct us to the magicians lab?

Maid: Why, yes it's over there, down the hall and to your right.

Blue: Thanks a lot. Let's go guys.

*Magicians Lab*

Blue: Hey, fellow magicians!

Mag 1: Oh, hello there. How can we help you?

Blue: Well, can I speak to the head magician here?

H Mag: Who dares asks for me?

*A young male magician about in his 20's appears before the group*

Lunes: I'm the head magician here. My name is Lunes, master magician. Now what do you want?

Blue: See, I was wondering if you could help us out? We're looking for a spell that can reveal a shape shifters true form.

Lunes: Wow. That's quite a request there. Might I ask why you're trying to find this shape shifter?

Blue: Uh, well, it's a secret.

Lunes: I understand, I'll not ask about it again. Come with me.

*Group follows Lunes to his Library*

Lilia: Wow. Would you look at all of these books?

ILS: Hmm, I wonder if they're any **** mags in here.

Blue: These books are full of magic spells. I bet every spell known to man can be found here.

Lunes: Hmm, I'm afraid such a spell doesn't exist. So that means I have to create it. Now let's see how. *looks through various books* Ah!

Blue: Huh? What's wrong?

Lunes: Creating such a spell....is not even within MY power. You'd need a magician with unworldly magic power to do such a thing. I'm afraid I cannot help you.

Lilia: Ah! What do we do now, Blue?

Blue: Gah, we have no choice but to wait for Zeldafan to find us. Darn it.

ILS: Ooooh! Looky what I found! *holds up **** mags* Wow, you magicians have some good taste!

Lunes: .....*blushes*

Lilia: Argh! Drop it!

ILS: But..!

Lilia: Now!

Blue: Thanks again, Lunes. We'll be taking our leave now.

Lunes: Sure, anytime. Good luck with your search.

*meanwhile, at the Baldovain inn*

ILS: So, have we reached a dead end, Blue?

Blue: Yeah, pretty much. There's no way we can find a magician with that amount of power. The only one that even came close was the great Faust, and he died hundreds of years ago.

Lilia: So I guess we stay put until Zeldafan gets back to us, right?

Blue: That's the plan.

ILS: But then...what happens when we finally find this shape shifter guy? I mean, can we really beat him?

Blue: I don't know, but we have to try. It's either him or us at this point.

Lilia: And I'm with you all the way, Blue. We'll get throught this together.

ILS: And me too. I'm staying with you guys til the end.

Blue: Thanks you guys. I couldn't ask for better friends.

*suddenly, another bounty hunter appears behind Blue, ready to split his head with an ax*

BH: Rah! Now you're mine!

Innkeeper: Aaah! Watch out!

Lilia: Oh no you don't! Take this! *quickly brandishes her knife and slices the hunter's neck*

BH: Guh....curse..you..*dies*

Innkeeper: Oh, I'm so relieved.

ILS: Wow. You got some quick reflexes, Lilia my sweet. I'm falling for you all over again. *sigh*

Lilia: Oh shut up.

Blue: Ah, wow. Thanks a lot, Lilia. I was almost a goner.

Lilia: No problem. We're watching your back. You can always count on us.

Innkeeper: Uh, excuse me...

Lilia: Yes?

Innkeeper: Could you clean up this mess? You got blood everywhere and it's gonna scare away my customers.

Lilia: Uuughhh.....

Blue: Ha ha ha!

 ;D

*Thumbs up....Again*

*meanwhile, back at Regalite City...danger approaches our fair Jawo*

Jawo: Hmm, I wonder what Blue and the gang are up to. Damn, I should've went with them.

*a flower girl comes up to Jawo*

Flower girl: Hey mister, you wanna buy some flowers?

Jawo: No thanks.

Girl: Are you sure? They smell nice.

Jawo: I said no thanks. Now beat it. *turns around and walks away*

Girl: Alright. *voices grows deeper* If you say so!

Jawo: Huh?

Girl: Take this! *Fires Purple bolt at Jawo*

Jawo: Whoa! *dodges bolt* You. You're not a girl! You must be the shape shifter that's after Blue!

Girl: Heh, how observant. Now that you know, mind telling me where he is?

Jawo: Ha. Like I'd ever tell you. We may not be buddies, but I'm no sell out. I'll do Blue a favor and take you out now. *takes out Water Blue ring*

Girl: Have it your way. *disappears*

Jawo: Huh? Where'd he go?

Girl: Over here! *appears behind Jawo and snags the ring* Ha. Now you're defenseless.

Jawo: Not quite! That ring isn't my only means of defense! *elbows girl, but it does no damage* Gah!

Girl: Is that all you got? *grabs Jawo's arms*

Jawo: Agh! Let me go!

Girl: I don't think so! Rah! *sends an electrical charge through Jawo's body*

Jawo: Gaaaahhhhhhh! *falls to the ground*

Girl: That's what happens to those who get in my way. Blue and his friends are next.

Jawo: Guh....No...

Girl: Ah, so you have one of those buddy buddy aura's do you? This'll make finding him a snap. *disappears*

Jawo: Blue....be careful. *passes out*

[In a far off castle]

Heh. Ah, Blue. You do not know of what you are getting yourself into.

Hehehe. Hahahahaha. HAHAHAHAHA!

(Thanks for that. It fits right into the role I had planned for you)  ;D

*With Zeldafan still gone and Mephiles quickly approaching, what will become of Blue and the gang as they sit idly awaiting their doom? Only time will tell!* </dramaticness>

damnit, this is what i get for not supplying my own lines!

That, and not working on your story.  :(

I've been busy with Pokemon Battle Ravolution, as i got it 2 days ago...

*Arrives at Huran City*
I heard this place has great Hunan chicken, hmm, we'll see...
It...It's huge!
Not just huge but delicious.

Heh, sorry Jawo.  ;D

(Alright, I'm ready to join in. PM me when you want me to enter the story, Blue.)

Ok, will do. I have a special place for you. During the eventual Mephiles battle.

Got it.

*plays Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney while waiting*

OBJECTION, B****!

You just don't know how to do it right. Take a hint from me.  :P

And now, we wait for Zeldafan to come back. Because the story totally can't go on until she does.  :-\

( Sorry! My mom keeps hogging the computer.... )

~~In a forest~~

*sitting on the ground, surrounded by a massive amount of objects of all shapes and sizes*

Man...I have a dragon's horde worth of treasures and artifacts, and I still can't find a single thing that would force a shape shifter to reveal itself. Cup of Everlasting Pudding......+1 sword.....Ocarina of Time......smokescreen in a bottle......Triple Star.....Covenant Energy Sword....SasuNAru doujinshi...wait, how did that get in the pile? *suspiciously shoves manga back into my cloak* Aw man.....I've traveled through countless dimensions, explored numerous worlds and I can't find a single artifact that would reveal a shape shifter! ARG!

*sigh* Ok.....let's see....I think there was a reason Bob said that the answer wasn't the Lens of Truth. The Lens of Truth....reveals invisible objects and illusions....so that's why it won't work. Shape shifters don't use illusions. The physically change shape....they use...deception. So, I have to use an artifact that reveals deception....but what? Arg! Stupid vague summoner! One of these days I'm going to take Kusanagi and shove....it...down....wait! I got it! The Yasakani no Megatama! *waves cloak over the pile of artifacts and they vanish into it. Then, shuffles around cloak and pulls out a necklace of Japanese prayer beads with a single stone shaped like half of a yin-yang set in the middle* When charged with spiritual energy, a megatama can be used to reveal deception. And the Yasakani no Megatama is a particularly powerful megatama. Let's see...I have another spare megatama too. I can give that to Blue. *pulls out another megatama, this one attached to a string* Alright!

*charges both megatamas with spiritual energy* Ok so...

Bob: *suddenly appears behind ZeldaFan* You have one piece of the puzzle. Now time for the second. A way to defeat Mephiles. And you have the key to that as well. Faust's Diary. Faust didn't know Mephiles as Mephiles. He knew him as Mephistopheles. Thus, he didn't deal with him as a shape shifter. But he did know how to deal with him. And he did know how to weaken him. However....you won't be able to find this secret yourself. That diary, as I'm sure you know, is magical. Many of its secret will only reveal themselves to actual magic users. You have to give the diary to your friend Blue. Only he'll be able to use the spell to weaken Mephiles. And don't worry. There's a spell on the diary that translates it to the language of its user, as long as the person using it is a spell caster. That's why it's still in German for you. You aren't a spell caster, so it won't reveal its secrets to you.

ACK! Bob! Don't do that! You know I hate it when you teleport behind me and start lecturing me! *breathes heavily for a few seconds* Hehehe, alright then. I'll just find Blue, give him this spare megatama and Faust's Diary, and then help him take down that stupid demon. Thanks for the cryptic hints Bob....and the unusually direct one just now. Are you alright? You're usually so much more vague and mysterious.

Bob: Mephiles has already struck his first victim. We must hurry if we wish to contain the demon. Farewell for now. I will reveal myself again in the time I'm most needed. *teleports away*

First....victim.....

BLUE-KUN! I'M COMING! DON'T GET KILLED WHILE I'M GONE! *runs off towards Blue's location*

~~Meanwhile, in the Baldovain inn~~

Tobi: *hiding in a shadowy corner* Tobi doesn't see why he has to watch this Blue guy....and why ZeldaFan-sempai told me to hide. This is so boring...Tobi wishes he could be somewhere else....maybe napping, or hanging out with Deidara-sempai. *sigh* Oh well, at least ZeldaFan-sempai will be happy. *continues watching Blue*

And the plot thickens...

Why do I have this feeling that Zeldafans addition to the party will only get me in even more trouble?

Blue: Agh! Each second we wait here, the shape shifter gets closer and closer!

Lilia: Blue, it's getting late, let's just call it a night and rest.

ILS: Yeah, I need my beauty rest.

Lilia: Ha, if that's the case you'll never wake up.

ILS: Oh Lilia, the sweet nectar that is your voice is dribbled with poison.

Blue: You guys can go rest, I'll be right here, waiting.

Lilia: Are you sure?

Blue: Yup, I'll be fine.

ILS: Come Lilia, let us sleep.

Lilia: I'll sleep...in my OWN bed.

ILS: Crud...

*Lilia and ILS head to the room*

Blue: *sigh* What am I gonna do with those two?

*suddenly, a dark figure comes from one of the corners of the inn lobby*

Tobi: *yawn* Finally. I thought they'd never leave.

Blue: Ah! Who are you!? *engulfs hands in flames, ready to fight*

Tobi: Hey hey, hold it. I'm not here to fight you.

Blue: Then what are you here for?

Tobi: I'm an acquaintance of Zeldafan. She ordered me to look after you to make sure you don't get yourself killed.

Blue: Hmm, so Zeldafan sent you, eh? *checks Tobi for aura* Yup, you're clean.

Tobi: See? Now you head right on up to bed. I'll be right here, watching over you and your buddies. If what she tells me is correct, she'll be here tomorrow morning.

Blue: Fine then. Good night, and thanks a lot.

Tobi: Yeah yeah.

Just to let you know, Tobi speaks in thrid-person, and he's not the brightest.

Very good. Very good.

Can't wait to see what happens next.

*floats in*

'Ello poppet!

( Actually, Tobi randomly switches back and forth between speaking in the third person and the first person. But yeah, he mostly speaks in the third person...which he actually doesn't even really do in the manga....I think I made that up once when I was crack rping Tobi and it kind of stuck. )

Tobi: *looking around* So....Tobi's on guard now. Yup, Tobi is guarding Blue and the others. *looks around some more* ....Tobi is bored.

~~Meanwhile, just outside the city~~

What do you mean a pass?

Guard: Sorry ma'am, but those are the rules. Can't let you in without a pass.

....I have a sack filled with over nine thousand pieces of gold. Will that let me in?

Guard: Well.....I do have a family to feed....

I'm not here to cause trouble! I swear! PWEASE! *does the sad puppy dog eyes*

Guard: O....OK. But, don't make me regret it!

Hehehe....*hands the guard the sack o' gold* Thanks buddy! *walks into the city* Alright! Now time to find Tobi and Blue-kun!

*heads towards Blue's location* If I walk at just the right speed, I'll get there just when he should be waking up. And I drank so much Mountain Dew on the way over here, I probably won't sleep for another couple of days!

And so begins my doom.....

...nobody even bothered to say hi back.... :'(

Hi Sasori!!!

*Hugs j00*

*Meanwhile, outside the Baldovain inn...*

Mephiles: Heh heh heh. I've finally made it. Now I make my move...

*The next morning*

Blue: Ah! I slept like a log! That was the first good night's sleep I had in a long time.

Lilia: Good for you, Blue! Now let's get us some breakfast.

ILS: Yah, breakfast sounds good.

*In the lobby*

Tobi: It's about time you guys got up, Tobi was just about to come wake you up himself.

Blue: Heh, sorry.

Tobi: Anyways, Zeldafan should be here in a few minutes. Just sit tight...while Tobi naps. *Zzzzzzzzzzz*

Lilia: Gee, that was fast.

*Blue and the gang have their breakfast*

Blue: Well, it's almost time, I assume. I hope you guys are ready.

Lilia: We're more than ready, right ILS?

ILS: Of course. As long as I'm with you, I'm always ready...for anything. *wink*

Lilia: *sigh*

Tobi: *Zzzzsnort* Hey! Keep it down! Tobi's trying to nap here!

Blue/Lilia/ILS: Sorry.

*bursts through the door* Ta-da! I'm here at last! Sorry I'm a bit late. I got lost on the road of life.

*looks and sees Tobi napping* Ah! He's sleeping....good, I guess. Tobi gets grumpy without his sleep.

Tobi: *muttering in his sleep* Hehehe, Deidara-sempai looks funny as a kangaroo.....

Um....ok Tobi....
Well, anyways, Blue! I've figured it out! *holds out a megatama* This jewel is called a megatama! If you talk to a person, and they lie to you, you'll be able to tell! So for example....you asked someone who they were, and they were really a shapeshifter and lied about their identity, you would be able to tell! *hands Blue the megatama* I have my own, but that was the only spare one I had, so only Blue can get one. Also, I'm supposed to give you this. *pulls out the same book I used to find the gate-opening incantation last time I met Blue* This book should look familiar. It's the diary/spellbook of the legendary Dr. Faust. These Mephiles person....is the same Mephistopheles that Faust once made a deal with. This book....supposedly contains a spell to weaken him, but the spell will only reveal itself to a magic user. Don't worry...even though it was written in German, it has a spell on it that will translate it to English as long as an English speaking magic user is using it.

*sits down* Sooo...now what?

OBJECTION!

IT'S MAGATAMA! MAGATAMA! GET IT RIGHT!

I'm sorry, but Phoenix Wright is one of my favorite DS series.

Blue: Ah finally! You made it back!

Lilia: And now we've gotten everything we need! This is so cool!

ILS: Yeah! Now we can bag us a shape shifter!

Blue: Thanks a lot, Zeldafan. We couldn't do this without you. Now to put this thing to the test. Just to see how it works. Hey, ILS. *points the megatama at ILS*

ILS: Y-yeah?

Blue: Are really a-

ILS: Now now, don't you wanna ask someone like say, Lilia here? *grabs Lilia*

Lilia: Hey! Buzz off!

ILS: See, I'm kinda scared of what that thing'll do to me.

Blue: I'm pretty sure nothing'll happen. I'm just gonna ask you question that's obviously not true. Now just do it. Are you really a shape shifter? *megatama shines brightly*

ILS: Agh! Noooooo! Graaghhhh!

Blue: Huh? What's wrong? ....Uh oh..it can't be! *megatama reveal ILS to be Mephiles*

Mephiles: Ha ha ha. So you've found me out, huh? Damn, and I was just about to off all of you.

Lilia: Agh! This thing is Mephiles!? Let me go!!!

Blue: But how!? How is that possible!? We all sign- Wait! ILS never signed it!!!!

Lilia: Aaaah! That's right! Ergh...

Blue: You let her go! Now! *prepares a spell*

Zeldafan: Wait Blue-kun! You'll hurt Lilia if you do that!!!

Mephiles: Heeheehee. Better listen to your friend here. You don't wanna toast your girlfriend here, do you?

Blue: Agh....

Mephiles: You've spoiled my plans for the last time, Fire Mage! You'll pay for taking what rightfully belongs to me. Jahannam is mine!

Blue: Well not anymore.

Mephiles: Ha ha ha! I give you a choice to make. An exchange, if you will. You hand over the jewel of Jahannam, and I give you back your girlfriend. A fair trade, wouldn't you say?

Blue: ...

Mephiles: You have 24 hours to make your decision. I'll be waiting in Jahannam. If you aren't there by that time, I will KILL the girl! *phases through the floor* Time's ticking, boy.

Lilia: Bluuuuuuuuuue! Help meeeeeee!!!

Blue: Lilia! Nooooooo!!!

Zeldafan: Blue-kun...

Blue: *sniff* What have I done? I couldn't protect her!

Zeldafan: Blue, it's not your fau- *hears banging on the closet door* Huh?

*door bust open to reveal a tied-up ILS*

ILS: Argh! Get me out of heeeeeeeere!

*meanwhile...*

ILS: Lilia was WHAT!?!?

Blue: She was kidnapped, by Mephiles. He's the one we've been after this whole time. He said I either give him the jewel of Jahannam or he'll kill her.

ILS: Darn him. He snuck in while I was sleeping, assumed my form, and stuffed me in that closet!

Blue: ...

ILS: Now I guess we have no choice but to hand over the jewel, right?


*Tobi awakens*

Tobi: Tobi heard the whole thing. Let's not get in over our heads. If we surrender the jewel, the world as we know it is finished. If that happens, Lilia and us, will die anyway.

ILS: Then what do we do?

Blue: We do what we intended to do in the first place. We kick Mephiles' butt and rescue Lilia.

Zeldafan: Yay! That's the spirit, Blue-kun!

Tobi: Tobi likes how you think, boy. Do you need any assistance from me or Zeldafan?

Blue: Thanks, but no thanks. We're doing this by ourselves. Just me and ILS.

Tobi: What? You can't be serious.

Blue: I AM serious.

Zeldafan: I understand. See, Tobi. The three of them share a special bond, one that can never be broken. I would prefer if Blue let us help, but we have to honor his decision.

Tobi: Hrrmmm, fine.

ILS: Then it's settled. Let's get prepared, rest up, and we'll set out for Jahannam first thing in the morning.

Blue: Indeed. This'll be the final battle.

ILS: Yeah, we gotta save our busty babe and friend, Lilia.

Blue: Yes, and the world.

*ahem*

Yes? Can I help you?

*Several hours later...In Jahannam*

??: Ah, so you've returned, master. And I see you've brought a guest.

Mephiles: Yes, plan A didn't run as smoothly as I had hoped.

??: Hmm, so I guess that means it's time for plan B.

Mephiles: Indeed.

??: Ho ho ho, plan B, my favorite.

Lilia: Huh? Plan A? Plan B? Just what are you plotting!?

Mephiles: Silence, girl. You...and your friends, shall see soon enough.

Lilia: Mmmn, Blue...ILS..be careful.

*The next morning*

ILS: Hey Blue, time to wake up.

Blue: Huh? Oh yeah! It IS time, isn't it?

ILS: Ha, that's not like you, Blue.

Blue: Ah, I know. Oh well, I'm up, so let's get moving. To the place where we arranged to gather.

ILS: The City gates?

Blue: Precisely.

*Outside Baldovain, at the city gates*

Guard: So you kids are off again it seems. Hey, where's the girl that was with you?

Blue: Long story short, we were..separated and we're going to get her back.

Guard: Okey dokey, you be careful out there.

ILS: We will, thanks a lot.

Tobi: So, it's time for guys to go, eh?

Blue: Yup. We only have a few hours left.

Zeldafan: Well then, don't forget this. *Hands Blue the diary* This is absolutely vital to defeating Mephiles.

Blue: Yeah, can't believe I almost forgot it.

Zeldafan: Blue-kun, ILS, take care and come back alive. You're our only hope.

ILS: Oh no worries, my jubilant jujubee. Well will defeat the nasty Mephiles and return with the beautiful Lilia.

Blue: Right. *chants incantation and gates to Jahannam appear* Time to go.

Tobi: Go show em who's boss! We'll be waiting right here for you.

Zeldafan: Yeah! You can do it guys!

ILS: Ready, Blue?

Blue: Ready.

*Blue and ILS walk into the gate*

*Back in the depths of Jahannam*

??: Hmm, so they're on their way.

Mephiles: Yes, so it seems. No matter, nothing will stop me from returning to my true form.

??: You mean the-

Mephiles: Yes, that. Now let's give the boys something to keep them busy. I don't want them to be too bored now. *summons 3 demons* Go, have fun. But try not to have too much fun. I want them to live to make it here to me.

Lilia: *gasp* Oh no!

*In the upper level of Jahannam*

Blue: Man, I never thought I'd ever have to come back to this place.

ILS: This place, I can feel rage and chaos surging all around. It's almost...overwhelming.

Blue: It'll be fine. I am the Lord of this place afterall.

*The 3 demons appear*

Demon 1: Pah! I can't believe he sent the three of us after two little pipsqueaks

Demon 2: And just how does he expect us not to kill them? They're so small.

Demon 3: We can't possibly have fun with them. Oh well, we do as we're told. Come on.

Blue: Ha, someone's really in over their heads. Is this the best you can do, Mephiles?

ILS: He underestimates us. We'll be the one's having fun here.

Demon 1: Why you little rat! Aaaaaaargh! *fires an energy ball at Blue*

Blue: No sweat. *casts a reflect spell and sends the ball back at the demon*

Demon 1: What!? No!!! Arrggghh! *is blown to bits by his own attack*

Blue: Fire spells aren't the only thing I'm good at.

Demon 2: The next one's mine! *charges at ILS with a spear in hand*

ILS: Get ready for this.....NOW! *slashes the demon's spear in half, leaving him defenseless*

Demon 2: Ergh...

ILS: And now we finish it...*slashes at the demon multiple times*

Demon 2: Graaaaaoooooo! *vanishes in a puff of smoke*

ILS: Who gets the last one, Blue?

Blue: Hmm, how about we flip for it?

ILS: Sounds good. *takes out a coin and flips it* I call heads!

Demon 3: What is this!? How dare you make a mockery of me! Rawr! *charges at Blue and ILS*

Blue: Oh would you looky here? *engulfs fist in flames and punches a hole in the demon's torso* It's Tails.

Demon 3: Cr..ud..*vanishes in a puff of smoke*

ILS: Whooo! Nice one, Blue! If only Lady Lilia could see you now.

Blue: Heh, aww it was nothin'. Anyways, we should keep moving. To the middle level.

ILS: Yeah, let's do it.

*Back in the depths of Jahannam*

??: As expected, those demons were no match. Did you not know how powerful they are?

Mephiles: Hrrrm, I guess I did underestimate them a bit. They DID defeat Iblis afterall.

Lilia: Woo hoo! Go Blue! Go ILS! You're both so awesome!

??: *sweatdrop* Ugh....

Very good.

Very very good.

~~Meanwhile, in the inn~~

Tobi: Got any threes?

Nope, go fish.

Tobi: Darn it! Tobi always has to go fish....and Tobi got a stupid five and not a three!

....got any fives?

Tobi: ......................yes. *throws five at ZeldaFan*

*sigh* This is soooo boring.....maybe I should have made Blue take me.

Bob: *suddenly standing behind ZeldaFan* Jahannam is not a place to underestimate. You wouldn't last long there. It is filled with rage.....and in the heat of battle, I fear that you could become overwhelmed by the rage in that place.

ACK! Bob.....why do you have to scare me like that? It's not funny....

Bob: Ahem! Anyways, I see he has already left. That was all I needed to confirm. Farewell again ZeldaFan. Maybe next time, you'll get to play a bigger role in the events that unfold. As for myself....I must prepare for.....the twist. *teleports away*

Tobi: Twist? What does he mean by that, ZeldaFan-sempai?

Hehehehe, all good movies need to have some kind of a plot twist before the hero wins. I guess....that sometimes applies to adventures too. Blue-kun....I hope you're ready for whatever happens.

*Jahannam, middle level*

ILS: Hmm, I can tell we're getting closer. I can feel the sensation of rage and chaos growing more concentrated.

Blue: You're not gonna quit on me now, are you?

ILS: And make the sweet Lilia think of me as a coward? Never!

Blue: Good, we'll be there soon.

*Jahannam, depths*

??: Anymore bright ideas?

Mephiles: Quiet you. And no. I'll shall let them come unhindered. I know now there's no point in sending pathetic demons after them. And besides, I wouldn't want to deprive you of your fun, now would I?

??: Hoo hoo, of course not.

Lilia: These guys.....are a bunch of weirdos.

*Jahannam, center*

ILS: Huh? What's this? The rage and chaos, it's gone. And this area, it's looks as if we're in Outer Space!

Blue: Yeah, I remember this part. Just an infinite void of nothingness. Now then, alright Mephiles! I know you can hear me! Send out the orbs so we can reach you!

*Mephiles' voice calls out from the void*

Mephiles: Don't you speak to me in that tone, you pathetic mortal.

Blue: I'll speak to you however I want to. I'm the Lord of Jahannam. *snicker*

Mephiles: Your impudence shall cost you your life. *voice dissipates*

*Several orbs come into view and line up, as if becoming a stairway*

Blue: Well then, that's our cue, let's go.

ILS: This place is so freaky.

*Blue and ILS jump from orb to orb, but this time, instead of coming upon a giant orb, they reach a swirling torrent of light*

ILS: What's this thing? Do we jump in?

Blue: I'm assuming so.

ILS: But we could get burnt to a crisp or something!

Blue: Won't know until we find out! *jumps in* Yahoooo!

ILS: *gulp* Here goes nothing. *jumps in* Aaaaahhhhh!

*Blue and ILS find themselves in a gigantic room that looks temple-like in nature, with a large mural of a bird-like creature*

Lilia: *gasp* Blue! ILS!

Blue/ILS: Lilia!

*They run over to her, but are stopped dead in their tracks when a purple bolt strikes between them*

Mephiles: You will not go another step further.

*Blue and ILS turn around to see Mephiles staring right at them*

Blue: Mephiles...so you show your face at last.

Mephiles: Time's up, boy. So what will it be? Will you give me the jewel, or do I have to kill the annoying brat?

Lilia: Annoying!?!?

Blue: Hmph, I say....neither. We're gonna kick your butt and save our friend.

Mephiles: I knew it. What fools you are. You can't possibly know what you're getting yourselves into.

Blue: Oh, I think we know alright. If we could take Iblis, then we can definitely take you.

??: And that's where you're wrong.

Blue: Huh?

Mephiles: Ah, Agaranok. So good of you to come.

Blue: What!? Agaranok!? But..but..!

ILS: Blue? You know this guy?

Blue: Of course, we..we..

Agaranok: ....couldn't have defeated Iblis without my help, right?

Blue: I don't understand. Just what's going on here!?

Agaranok: Oh, you're so naive.

Mephiles: Allow me to shed some light on this predicament. See, I've been, should I say, working, with Iblis for the past several thousand years. Just waiting, biding my time for the day that I would finally destroy his body.

Blue: Wait. Just his body?

Mephiles: Yes, I needed his soul left intact. With his unwilling attitude, that would have been the only way we could remerge, into what we TRULY are. But then, you came along. So I figured I'd use you. I had Agaranok wittle his way into your friends mind, goading him in to summoning him. It was up to Agaranok to destroy Iblis' body without destroying his soul. And he did that ever so well.

Agaranok: And I couldn't have done it without you, Blue. Thank you for that push from your Supernova. Ha ha ha ha!

Blue: Noooo! Then this...this was all a setup! From the very beginning!

ILS: Blue, no! You did what you had to do!

Blue: This is all my fault. The world is in ever greater peril because of my selfish actions.

Lilia: Blue! You have to snap out of it! What's done is done! You can't change the past!

Blue: I can't...change the past.

ILS: Right, instead, you have to fight for the future. We have to right this terrible wrong!

Mephiles: There will be none of that today. Now back to business. You will die, and I will become whole again! Agaranok! Go! Finish them!

Agaranok: I thought you'd never ask. Come on, Blue. Show me what you got.

ILS: Come Blue, it's time to fight!

Blue: Yeah, let's do it! For the future!

Agaranok: Here I come! Reaaaaaahhhhh! *Agaranok flies forward at Blue*

*wishes I were in the story*


*sigh*

...

Oops. Sorry. I'm kinda too far in to include any new characters. After this fight, the story's over actually.  :-\

there's a third...right?

Probably not. I'm not in much of a mood for a third. But no one knows at this point.

...did you at least go see what I put in the forget fourteen topic?

(I'm back. Sorry about that. I'm a minion? Hm. I'm not sure that I like that, I'm more of a loner. But I guess that beggars can't be choosers.)

*charges directly at Blue, but then teleports behind him and slashes him*

 ^_^

Go Team Go!

Blue: *quickly shields his body with a veil of fire* Ergh, that could've been worse. He's so fast.

ILS: You won't get away with that! Mana charge! *charges mana into both arms and swings his swords with a force so great that it sends two shockwaves at Agaranok* Just try and dodge that.

Is that all?

*teleports out of the way, and appears right above all of them. Agaranok drives his sword into the ground at an extreme speed, causing a large dome of Dark energy to expand outwards rapidly*

Blue: ILS! Get beside me!

ILS: Right. *goes beside Blue*

Blue: Now then, let's see which is stronger! *casts a Fire Dome spell and it expands outwards and clashes with the Dark Dome*

*both domes explode, but Agaranok is missing from the center of his*

Behind you.

*Agaranok teleports about a foot away from ILS and Blue and slashes them*

Blue/ILS: Aaaahhhh!!!

Mephiles: Ho haa haa! What's wrong, boys? Too much for you?

Blue: *struggling to get up* Agh, this isn't over. Not by a longshot! Ready ILS? Let's show him our dual attack!

ILS: Yeah, I'm ready!

Blue: *casts a Fire spell on ILS' swords, causing them to burn with fire power*

ILS: Oh yeah! Mana charge! *charges both legs with mana and charges at Agaranok* You may be fast, but I'm faster! *slashes Agaranok overhead with both swords*

*Agaranok splits directly in half, and explodes. The real Agaranok appears floating up in the air in front of them*

Time to try this out in battle.

*Sends out a wave of dark smoke, which then materializes into several large icicles* 

ILS: What!? No way! We can't even land a hit!

*icicles begin to fall*

Blue: No time! Watch out! *casts a reflect spell overhead, sending the icicles back at Agaranok with twice the power*

*absorbs the icicles through a Dark Portal*

Time to finish this.

Shun Goku Satsu! (Instant Hell Murderer)

*Agaranok floats rapidly towards Blue, attempting to grab him*

(NOTE: This Shun Goku Satsu is not lethal, it just severely weakens the opponent, of renders him unconsious.)

*Agaranok grabs him*

Blue: Agh! Ergh! *struggles* Let go!

ILS: I have to stop him! But I have no time to get closer! Oh, well. Here goes nothing! *throws one of his swords at Agaranok*

*entire area goes pitch black, and rapid slashes of dark energy are seen in Blue and Agaranok's direction*

(For what a Shun Goku Satsu looks like, go to Youtube and type it in the search bar. It should be one of the first few videos. I can't provide a link because my computer won't connect for some reason. Mine is basically the same, but I use my sword rather than my fists.)

Bob: *suddenly appears a few feet away from ILS* Blue....is in big trouble now.
Do not allow my presence to startle you. I am not here to get involved....just yet. For now, I merely wish to observe.

(It's cool. I know what it's like)

*The darkness vanishes, revealing a kneeling Blue and a menacing Agaranok*

Blue: *cough* My energy...I can't...go on..*falls unconscious*

ILS: Blue! No!

Lilia: Aaaaahhh! ILS! You have to do something! Blue's in trouble!

ILS: But-but what can I do?

Lilia: You can't give up! Not here! Fight!

ILS: You're right, Lilia. I have to keep going! Here I come! Mana charge! *charges mana in both legs and jumps into the air.*

Agaranok: ...

ILS: *descends with blinding speed attempting to dive his sword straight into Agaranok's head*

*slides on belly with thumbs-up* Heh heh.....

Oh crud, now I can't continue without Agaranok.  :'(

Bob: *closes eyes and begins talking to Blue telepathically* Blue....if you wish, I will help. But out of principle, I will not interfere unless my life is in danger or my help is requested. Do you accept my help?

*awakens to find himself and Bob inside of his conscious*

Blue: Huh? Bob? When did you get here? Eh, nevermind. And I...do not accept. I know it looks bleak, but we have to do this on our own. Besides, I have one last trick up my sleeve. Thanks for the offer, I know it's rare for you to offer your assistance to anyone, but I can take care of myself.

Bob: Very well. Then I shall continue to merely observe. Good luck, and....may the Force be with you.
Sorry, I just sort of have always wanted to say that.

Blue: Thank you, Bob. Just leave it to me. I won't be dying just yet.

*back to the battle*

ILS: *about to land the blow on Agaranok* You'll pay for what you did to Blue!!!

(Sorry about that.)

*ILS is blown away by a shield-like blast of Dark energy*

Feh. This is pathetic.

*Dark portal appears over Agaranok, and it begins dropping giant icicles over the area.*

ILS: Gah! Blue isn't awake, so I have no choice but to dodge! *uses upped speed to dodge icicles, but is nipped in the leg by the last one* Argh! *falls to the ground* Agh! I can't move!

Lilia: ILS! No!

There. Mephiles, I held my end of the bargain. They're alive, like you said. Now where's my half?

Mephiles: Very well. Here.

*Mephiles hands Agaranok a small item wrapped in cloth, and Agaranok floats a good distance away from the area, but still remains in view.*

Mephiles: Ha ha ha. Now I will take what is mine. *goes to grab the jewel from Blue*

Blue: *Blue jumps back to action* Not so fast, Mephiles!

Mephiles: Raaaghh! What!? Agaranok you fool! He's not supposed to be moving!

Agaranok: I..I don't know how he did! That attack is flawless!

Mephiles: Enough of your dribble! Out of my sight! *snaps fingers and a portal appears behind Agaranok, sucking him in*

Agaranok: Haa! No matter, I've already gotten what I wanted!

Mephiles: Oh ho, I'm not done yet. And as an extra bonus, I banish you to the land of Summoned Creatures forever! You will never be summoned ever again by anyone!

Agaranok: No! You cannot do this! Noooooooo! *Agaranok is sucked into the portal, never to return again*

Mephiles: Pah. Worthless mongrel. Such is the life of a summoned creature. Now then, where were we? Ah ha! I was just about to take that jewel from you.

Blue: You'll never take this jewel from me. I'll never yeild to you!

Mephiles: You have no choice! Raaaggh! *dashes forward at Blue*

[speaking to self]

That damn fool. He honestly think that he can get rid of me that easily? Just wait Mephiles. You'll pay for your mistake.

*Agaranok begins laughing insanely*

Blue: Ha, get ready for this, Mephi-huh!? Ugh, ergh, agh, I can't move my body! I feel like...I've been poisoned! It's must've been Agaranok!

Mephiles: Ha ha, now would you look at this. So that mongrel was useful afterall. No matter, what's done is done. Now you're MINE! *dashes forward and punches Blue several times in his face, the last punch knocking him to the ground*

Blue: Agh...ugh..

ILS: No..agh, I still can't move my leg.

Lilia: Oh no, they're both incapacitated!

Mephiles: Now I will finally take that jewel. *snatches jewel from Blue* Ha HA! I have it! I have the final piece of the puzzle! Now you will watch as I reunite with my other half!

Blue: I have to...d-do something.

Mephiles: There's nothing you can do! It's over for all of you! *holds the jewel up over his head* Now Iblis! Come back unto me!

*The soul of Iblis manifests into physical form*

Iblis: We shall reunite.

Mephiles: Yes! We shall return to our true form! We shall become Solaris once again!

*The two bodies come together, creating a giant ball of blinding yellow light*

Lilia: Aaaah! It's happening!

Blue: Solaris!? Solaris the Sun God Solaris!? This-this is inconceivable!!!!

ILS: Blue! What the heck is a Solaris?

*The ball of light grows larger, causing the temple structure to crumble*

Blue: Solaris...Solaris is the Sun God, spoken of in the legends of the ancient city of Soleanna. I read all about it back when I was studying magic. Solaris provided the city with infinite golden sunlight, keeping the citizens healhty and prosperous.

Lilia: This thing, is a god? Then...then why is it doing this!?

Blue: Then one day, A greedy soul intended to use Solaris' power for himself. He captured Solaris and used a machine to try and harness it's power. The machine backfired, causing Solaris to split into separate entities. Until know, I never knew they were Iblis and Mephiles.

ILS: This is crazy!

Blue: Solaris must be seeking revenge on humanity for causing it such harm.

*The ball of light continues to grow larger*

Lilia: But it can't judge all of us based on the actions of one person!

Blue: I know, but there's no way it'll understand that. Our only hope is to defeat it.

Lilia: Defeat? A Sun God? Are you out of your mind, Blue!?

Blue: We have no choice. It's either we do, or we all die.

*The ball of light explodes, breaking apart the temple. The pieces remaining are floating in the void of Jahannam, along with Blue and the gang*

Blue: Ah! It's....Solaris!

*A gigantic bird-like creature, shining gold, appears*

Solaris: *lets out a ear-splitting howl* YOU! YOU AND THE WHOLE OF HUMANITY WILL PAY FOR YOUR CRIMES AGAINST ME!

[In the dimension of Summoned Creatures]

*Agaranok uravels the object, revealing it to be a long dark blue crystal.*

That Mephiles is a fool. Now, to end this damn curse.

*Agaranok stabs himself with the crystal, and begins to absorb it slowly*

Bob: A...god. This is worse than I thought. If they are going to stop a god....one final piece is needed. Blue, you have a magatama infused with ZeldaFan's energies. You have the diary of Dr. Faust, one of the most powerful and ambitious magic users to ever exist. And now, I grant you one last gift. A gift from I, Bob the Omnipotent. Summon....Fenris Blade! *summons a European-style, one handed short sword with the shape of a wolf's head carved into the handle* This sword....forged from the fangs of Fenris....can injure even a god. You may not need it, or you may have use for it. For now, I must leave. With this event occurring, there is something I must do. *leaves the sword floating in the air just in case, and then teleports away*

ILS: I..I could use this sword. I'll take it! *grabs Fenris Blade*

Lilia(Now free): Solaris! What you're doing is wrong! You cannot judge all by the actions of one!

Solaris: HOW DARE YOU TELL ME WHAT I'M DOING IS WRONG! I AM A GOD! MY DESICIONS ARE ABSOLUTE!

Blue: The people of Soleanna punished the one responsible. But even then they were still condemned to a live without sunlight. The entire civilization crumbled even though they correct their wrongs.

Solaris: CRIME MUST BE MET WITH PUNISHMENT! PUNISHING THE WRONG DOER DID NOT RETURN ME TO MY ORIGINAL GLORY! I SHOWED THEM WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THEY DO NOT KEEP THEIR OWN UNDER CONTROL!

ILS: But it wasn't their fault! Can you not learn to forgive and forget!?

Solaris: NONSENSE! I AM A GOD AND I WILL NOT BE TREATED IN SUCH A MANNER!

Lilia: But-but the people loved you. They respected you. They worshipped you! How could you do that to them!?

Solaris: SILENCE! I DID WHAT WAS NECESSARY! I MADE SURE THAT NOTHING LIKE THIS WOULD EVER OCCUR AGAIN! HUMANS ARE SINFUL PATHETIC CREATURES! THEY ARE NOT WORTHY OF MY BLESSINGS! I WILL ANNIHILATE EVERY ONE OF YOU!

Blue: You. You're mad! You've been driven into insanity!

Solaris: I SAID SILENCE! I WILL PURGE THE WORLD OF HUMANITY AND RECREATE THIS WORLD IN MY OWN IMAGE! IT WILL BE A WORLD WHERE NO ONE HARMS ONE ANOTHER! A WORLD WHERE EVERYONE LIVES IN PEACE! AND I WILL RULE OVER IT ALL!

Blue: Well I won't allow that to happen. Yes, humans are sinful beings, but there are those who strive to change themselves for the better. And then there are those who don't. They are the one's who should be punished. You can't take this out on everyone! Give us a chance!

Solaris: ENOUGH OF YOUR YAMMERING! I HAVE MADE MY DECISION! YOU ALL DIE AND I WILL RECREATE THE WORLD!

Blue: All of this...because of one person...

Solaris: I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU! NOW I PASS MY JUDGEMENT! *lets out a howl*

Blue: Ergh!

ILS: Blue, it's no use!

Lilia: What do we do!?!?

Blue: Looks like I have to use this...*pulls out a small object from pocket*

Blue: I was saving this..just in case something like this happened. Master Seal! I beseech you! Lend me your power! *lifts Master Seal above head, Blue is engulf in a bright light*

ILS: Blue, just what is he doing?

Lilia: He's...he's..!

*The light dissipates, revealing Blue in not red, but blue robe*

ILS: Blue, you're a...!

Blue: Fire..SAGE!

Lilia: Blue! I can feel your power!

ILS: Yeah! I think we actually stand a chance now!

Solaris: FOOLISH MORTALS! NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO, YOU CAN NEVER DEFEAT ME! *lets out a howl*

Blue: Then we'll see about that. Hey, you two...

Lilia/ILS: Yeah?

Blue: Stay out of this. Solaris is mine and mine alone.

ILS: But..but how do you expect to do this by yourself!?

Lilia: That's right, Blue! We're a team!

Blue: I'm sorry, but this is my fight. ILS, give me the blade.

ILS: Uh, sure. *hands blue Fenris Blade*

Blue: Good. *absorbs its energy into his body* This'll be a real help. *throws it back to ILS*

ILS: You...You can do it, Blue!

Lilia: Yeah! Show em what you're made of!

Blue: Alright, Solaris! I'm coming for you! Reaaaahhh! *flys towards Solaris*

Solaris: RAAGH! FEEL MY INFINITE POWER! *summons a horde of meteors*

Blue: Heh, a meteor shower, eh? No problem. Inferno shield! *A dome of fire forms around Blue, incinerating any meteors that touched it*

Solaris: WHELP! SEE HOW WELL YOU DEFEND AGAINST THIS! *fires a beam from the red center in its chest*

Blue: Uh oh! *beam hits Blue sending him flying back* Argh!

Lilia: Ah! Blue! Are you ok!?

Blue: Yeah, no sweat. Barely a scratch. *flies back toward Solaris* You may be a Sun God, but you can't handle this heat! *forms a giant Fireball and fires it at Solaris*

Solaris: *Fireball hits Solaris' core* AAAAAGGGHGHHHH! HOW COULD YOU DAMAGE ME!?!?

Blue: Ha, looks like I found his weak spot.

Solaris: BRAGH! YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO AVOID THIS ATTACK! *summons a giant meteor and sends it shooting towards Blue*

Blue: You're right, I can't avoid it. *put arms out infront of him* But I can send it back at you! *meteor collides with Blue's hands* Errrgghh! Aaaaghhh!

Solaris: YOU HAVE NO CHANCE!

Lilia: Push, Blue! Push!

ILS: Well that sounded awkward.

Lilia: *smacks ILS* This so isn't the time!

ILS: Sorry, ugh...

Blue: *succeeds in pushing back the meteor* Haaa!

Solaris: *meteor hits core* GRAAAAGGGHGGH! HOW IS HE SO STRONG!?!?

Blue: And now I go in! *bullets up to Solaris* Take this! *engulfs fists in flames and rapidly punches Solaris' core*

*Solaris begins to lose its golden shine*

Solaris: YOU. YOU WILL NOT DEFEAT ME! NOT EVER! *Solaris howls, freezing Blue in place* HA HA HAAAAAA! WHAT WILL YOU DO NOW!?

Blue: ...

Lilia: Aaah! He's been frozen in time!

ILS: No! Blue!

*Solaris brings its wings together and begins to charge for a final attack*

Solaris: THIS WILL END IT ALL!

Lilia: Blue! Please! We need you!

*cough* Don't ruin what I have going, please. I have the rest of this battle planned out.  :-\

Sorry. I deleted that post, just for good measure.

~~Meanwhile, in the inn~~
*The whole inn is watching the fight on a magical screen that Bob dropped off to them before teleporting off again*

NO! BLUE! You....can't lose!
I....WON'T LET YOU! Come on Blue! You can do it! Go Blue!

Tobi: Yeah! TOBI BELIEVES IN YOU BLUE!

*suddenly, the whole inn begins to chant "Go Blue, Go Blue, Go Blue!" over and over again.*

.....Holy *****!!!

Lilia: *sniff* No...if we've lost Blue, then what hope do we have? *sobs*

ILS: Don't cry, Lilia. Blue will pull through somehow. I just know it!

Solaris: NO ONE CAN ESCAPE MY TIME COLLAPSE! HE'S TRAPPED FOREVER!

*continues charging attack*

Lilia: No! This can't be the end!

*suddenly Blue is bathed in light, freeing him from the Time Collapse*

Blue: Huh? I can move again!

*Then, at the same time, Solaris is struck by a ray of light, rendering him immobile*

Solaris: HOW!? MY ENERGY...IT'S COMPLETELY DRAINED! WHO COULD DO THIS TO ME!?

??: Why, it was I.

*A young woman descends between the group and Solaris*

Solaris: YOU!!!

*sigh* And I thought pink would show up better. I need to be wiser when choosing my colors.  :-\


Okay then, I went back and made everything glowy instead. It looks a little more diety-ish, doesn't it?  ;D

Blue: Wh-who is that?

ILS: She's....beautiful!

??: I am the maiden Astartyune. I created the human race, as well as all life on Earth.

Lilia: What the..? Are you for real!?

Astartyune: I know, it is hard for you to grasp. There aren't any records showing proof that I exist at all. I shall only make myself known if there is a terrible catastrophy plaguing humankind.

Blue: Terrible catastrophy....Solaris!

Astartyune: That is correct. Although Solaris claims to be an immortal God of the Sun, he is nothing of the sort. He is a being I created to harness the Sun's energy and bless the people of the world.

Lilia: This..this is all unbelievable!

Solaris: ARGH! ASTARTYUNE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?

Astartyune: Solaris, you have crossed the line. This is not the purpose I intended for you. Dealing Judgement upon the humans is my decision and mine alone. And I decide that they are all worthy of living.

Solaris: WHY!? HAVE YOU NOT SEEN WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO ME!? THEY MUST BE PUNISHED!

Astartyune: I understand, and they have been punished. They have felt the guilt of their crimes and atoned for it. That is all the punishment they need. Lashing out in rage is not the way to acheive peace and you know this.

Solaris: ASTARTYUNE!!!

Astartyune: I now see that there is no way your rage will subside. Such a pity. You there, Quentin.

ILS: Huh? Who's Quentin?

Blue: Yes, Astartyune?

Astartyune: You and your friends are the only ones who can bring peace to this restless soul. You must strike the final blow and rid the world of him forever. That, is the only way.

Blue: But Astartyune, why can you not do this?

Astartyune: Humankind must learn to fend for itself. I cannot interfere more than I already have. This, is all my fault, so I have come to correct my own misdeed. The misdeed of allowing Solaris to have his way with the world. You, Quentin, have taught me a very valuable lesson. No matter how badly you mess up, there is always a way to make it right.

Blue: Yes, I understand.

Astartyune: Now I must take my leave. I will continue watching over the Earth, in case something like this is to occur once again. You have the power to finish off Solaris. It was inside of you the whole time. No book or magical artifact can do the same. The power is within you, all of you. I gave you all the power to overcome any obstacle that you may face, so long as you strive to overcome it. Remember my words, young heroes.

*Astartyune ascends back to the heavens*

Lilia: That...that was amazing!

ILS: It was indeed. How often do you get to meet the Goddess of the Earth?

Blue: I'll take your words to heart, Astartyune. I'll finish you, Solaris! I will bring peace to you and the world!

*Astartyune voice is heard from the void*

Astartyune: Quentin, you must take the hands of your friends. You cannot accomplish this feat by yourself. You and your friends must pull together. You must lend eachother your love and strength. Only then, can you defeat Solaris.

Blue: I understand. Well then...are the two of you ready!?

ILS: I was born ready!

Lilia: Ready as I'll ever be, Blue!

Blue: Alright then. Let's do this....together!!!

ILS/Lilia: Right!!!

*patiently waits*

Sorry, I've been a little busy. I guess I can finish this up today.

Blue: Now! Take my hand guys!

Lilia: You got it! *grabs Blue's hand*

ILS: Yeah. *grabs Blue's hand*

Blue: Ok! Let's pool our energy together! Then we can unleash the final attack.

Blue/Lilia/ILS: Haaaaaaaaa! *channels energy*

Blue: Alright! I can feel it! Now we're all set! Let's fly! Ready?

Lilia/ILS: Ready!

Blue: Then here we go!

*The group flies foward, intending to slam into Solaris*

Solaris: YOU FOOLS! I MAY PERISH, BUT ONE DAY, SOMEONE WILL COME! SOME IGNORANT HUMAN WILL INSURE YOUR DEMISE!

Lilia: I don't think so, Solaris!

ILS: As long as we stand together as one...

Blue: ...we will never fall! This is the end for you, Solaris!

*The group collides into Solaris, causing a huge explosion*

Solaris: GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHH!!!!! *Solaris' body breaks apart and disintegrates*

*The group is then sent flying in different directions*

Lilia: Aaaaaahhhhhh!

Blue: Liliaaaaaaa!

ILS: Whoooooooooaaaa!!!

*Several hours later, Blue and the gang wake up to find themselves floating aimlessly in an infinite white space*

Blue: Ugh..huh, what? Wh-where am I?

Lilia: Blue!

Blue: Guys, you're here too.

ILS: Yeah, I don't know how we ended up here.

Lilia: Are..are we....stuck here?

Blue: Hmm, it seems so.

Lilia: Aw crud. We save the world just to end up stuck here forever.

ILS: Now now, Lilia my pet. Let's not jump to conclusions.

Blue: That explosion...must've caused Jahannam to collapse in on itself. Heh heh.

Lilia: Blue! This isn't funny! We're trapped in nowhere land for all eternity!

ILS: Well it's not all bad. At least we have eachother.

Lilia: Oh yeah, that really makes everything better. </sarcasm>

Blue: Ah well. There's no point in being all stuffy about it. We saved everyone on Earth at least. May as well make the most of it.

Lilia: Oh shut up, Blue. How can we make the most out of nothing!?

Blue: ...I was just saying.

Bob: *his voice is suddenly projected into the void* Blue...can you hear me? I'm...finding it very difficult to....contact you. ZeldaFan....might....be able....to help you. She....has a sword.....that can rip through.....the very fabric of.....space. Can....you....do something to....let....us find you? Hurry.....connection....fading....fast.....

*Several more hours later*

Lilia: AGH! I can't stand it here! This infinite silence, this lack of scenery, it's driving me bonkers!

Blue: Lilia, just calm down. We'll think of something to get us out.

Lilia: *sigh* Face it, Blue. We're stuck. Forever.

Blue: Well uhm, the laws of time and space don't seem to apply here, so at least we'll never grow old, or become hungry or thirsty.

Lilia: So we can't even be put out of our misery!? Auuuggghhh!!

ILS: *looking at a **** mag that was stuffed in his pocket* Well I've got something to keep me busy for the next trillion years, heh heh.

Blue: We can't fall into despair, Lilia. There's gotta be a way out.

*Just then, Astartyune appears once again*

Lilia: Ah! Astartyune!

Astartyune: You have succeded, young ones. I am so very proud of you.

ILS: Why thank you, sweet Goddess.

Astartyune: I have brought you here, in this space between heaven and Earth, inform you.

Blue: So that's what this place is. So, uh, what is it that we need to be informed of?

Astartyune: Solaris has been defeated, but I feel not all is well. The damage that he has incurred to countless people can never be removed.

Blue: So what do you plan to do?

Astartyune: I plan to erase Solaris' existance from history, so that his terror will have never been known.

Lilia: Wait! But if you do that..!

Astartyune: Yes, I am afraid that none of the events will have taken place, meaning that the three of you, and all of your other colleagues, will have never met eachother. I am sorry, but I believe this is for the best.

Blue: I...I understand, Astartyune. You're just doing what's necessary.

Lilia: Blue...I...I don't want to have never met you! Or ILS! I love the both of you! You're both my best friends!

ILS: I don't want this to happen either, but what choice do we have?

Astartyune: Do not weep, Lilia. If you feel so strongly about your companions, I will agree to make it so that you three will have retained all of your memories of eachother.

Lilia: Ah! Would you really do that!?

Astartyune: Yes, but I am afraid I cannot do the same for the rest of your friends. They will forget everything that happened, including the three of you.

Blue: So that means....Zeldafan, Bob, Tobi....they'll all forget about me?

Lilia: Oh no...

Astartyune: I'm apologize, Quentin, but it must be done. The only other option is for me to erase all of your memories.

Blue: I see. Well then, we're ready, Astartyune.

Lilia: Yeah, we'll be fine.

ILS: Right, we're all set.

Astartyune: Very well. Just one more thing before I begin, the timeline of the world will have been permanently altered. I cannot say where you will end up when this is over.

Blue: That's fine. We're prepared.

Astartyune: As you wish. Now all of you, close your eyes, and when you awaken, you will begin life anew. Spared from all the destruction that Solaris caused.

*The group closes their eyes*

*cough* Zeldafan, I got this part covered. No worries.

Yeah, I see now. Ah well, Bob was just worrying about you. Just carry on and act like everyone kind of didn't hear him. I mean, at least he didn't actually do anything. Bob is the kind of character that speaks before all of his actions. I swear....I give my characters way too much personality....

Lilia: Blue, ILS. Will we ever meet again?

ILS: No worries, Lilia. Of course we will.

Blue: Yeah, I'm sure of it....

*Light engulfs the group and the world fades to black*

*Now, in the new world, time was reset so that Solaris never existed. Soleanna still remains as a thriving City, and all is well with the world. Now we join Blue, yet again. He lives in the City of Geldrar, continuing his magic studies*

*A young boy carrying a sword appears behind Blue*

Boy: Hey, are you still reading those musty old books?

Blue: Yes, I am. And what did I tell you about disturbing me while I'm reading!?

Boy: Gah! I'm sorry! *The boy runs away*

Blue: *sigh* Silly kid.

*Just then, a young woman walks into the room*

Girl: Blue! What did I tell you about mean to Leon!?

Blue: But..but Ari! He know's he's not supposed to bother me.

Ari: He's just a boy! Sheesh. That's no way for a hero to behave!

Blue: Doh, fine. I'll TRY to be nicer from now on. Now can you please just let me study? I won't become an Archsage with nagging girls and annoying children griping at me.

Ari: Ah! You're just as rude as always, Blue! Well fine. You won't have me to stick around anymore. *leaves the room*

Blue: *sigh* Why do these things always happen to me?

*And now we bring this story to a close. Who knows? We may just meet up with Blue and all of his friends again. There's a whole new world to explore with plenty of mysteries and secrets to be discovered. This could only be the beginning of Blue and his adventures*

The End.

Ahem, now then. Now that that's finally over, any comments, questions, or criticism?

You're really a good story writer, and it's pretty impressive how you can react so quickly to what other people introduce into your story.
You definitely should do this again in the future. It's fun.

Although I'm sure some people are wondering what happened to ZeldaFan and the others, so I hope you don't mind if I add a little epilogue here.

~~Somewhere~~

*knocks two thieves unconscious with a bokuto* Psh, that'll show you to mess with me! So Bob, where to next?

Bob: *staring off into space* Hm? Oh, I would say...perhaps the City of Geldrar. I'm sure you could find some impressive artifacts there.

...gosh Bob. You've been pretty spacey lately. Spacier than Tobi over there. *jerks thumb in Tobi's direction*

Tobi: *is busy watching a squirrel* Huh? You say something, sempai?

Bob: It's....nothing. You two go ahead of me.

Alright, whatever you say. Tobi! Get up! We're heading forward again. We're off to find some more artifacts for my collection. *walks off*

Tobi: Alright ZeldaFan-sempai! Maybe Tobi will get some pudding! *runs after her*

Bob: ....hehehe, to be innocent again. Blue....the others may have forgotten, but I don't. Like I said, I may not be omnipotent....but I do not call myself that lightly. I can see things that others can not. Although I do not technically remember the events that occurred, I can still "see" that they happened. I am still aware of their existence. *chuckles* Looks like my rescue offer was unneeded....
Hehehehe, Bob the Omnipotent....the man cursed...to have the knowledge of a god in the body of a mortal. But then again....I guess it's a gift...and it's a curse. Blue, we will meet again. Destiny already moves. Who knows what events will happen next? Not even I...not even the gods can see what will occur next. But whatever happens, I can already tell it will revolve around you. You're like ZeldaFan. A catalyst for change....and a beacon of hope. I cannot wait to meet you again Blue....my friend. *begins to walk after ZeldaFan and Tobi* Hehehe, adventure is on the air. I look forward to it as always.

Ha ha. That's excellent. I already have another storyline planned out. This time it's gonna take place 8 years later, with everyone as young adults. It's gonna have a Fire Emblem-y spin on it too. Don't know when I'll start up, but it'll be sometime soon.

I'm gonna say thumbs up again.

Because this is just so damn good!

Ah, ILS. I must thank you personally. At first I thought adding you would be a bad idea, but it turned out to be the best thing ever. You even became one of the 3 main characters. I can guarantee we'll be seeing your character in the future.

Awesome sauce.

Sounds like fun to me. You can definitely count me in.

These things are too much fun. And this is the first time I've ever really gotten to take my Bob the Omnipotent for a spin. He's an interesting character, and I've always looked for somewhere I could use him. Plus, you just saw a little bit of his unique brand of summoning. Maybe the next story will give more opportunities for Bob to summon up something unusual. Like his most powerful summon....the dreaded Chuck Norris!

*hides under cardboard box* I'm only kidding.....or am I?

Of course. I couldn't do it without you.  ;D

Btw, could someone come up with an actual name for this story? That working title's been there since the beginning and it's about time I got rid of it.

How about....."Blue and the Wrath of Mephiles."

Sounds good to me.

But I remember everything, right? I was still trying to end my curse as a summoned creature.

Anyways, good job. Not as good as the first, but still, well done.

Hmmm, I do wonder. Technically, Agaranok was in a different world when the world was rebooted. Maybe....it created a paradox. On one hand, since Solaris never existed, Agaranok never would have been summoned by Bob, then banished by Mephiles, but on the other hand, since Agaranok himself was not actually existing in the main world at the time, maybe the actual Agaranok didn't get rebooted, and is still stuck in the world of Summoned Creatures.

So maybe....it could create a paradox where there are two Agaranoks! One Agaranok that exists in the rebooted world who was never banished by Mephiles, and another one who is still banished for some paradoxical reason! I mean, the way Blue said it kind of implied that the world rebooted in such a way that Solaris, Mephiles, and Iblis never existed.....so the things that happened in this story and the last "never happened." I'm just kind of making a crazy theory that could create a strange messed up future storyline. "Blue and the Two Agaranoks!"

Ultimately, I guess that Blue has the final word, but that's my crazy theory. Yay paradoxes!

Now, you're speaking my language. But that might be too crazy, I'm guessing that I'd have to absorb the copies to become whole, or something like that.

Hmm, I never really thought about that. To be quite honest, I don't intend to use you in my next story, Agaranok. You can have your own separate storyline or something, I guess.  :-[

Well, thank YOU for adding me. And I don't blame you for thinking that adding me was a bad idea. Cause usually it is.

Nice, now I have to read #3.
