Tales of Chronicles II; The Phantom Scarf

[Magoseong]

There are a few ancient tales across the world.. This is but one of them.

Long ago, there existed a threatening evil corrupted the very fabrics of space and time. None could foresee and predicted this coming tradegy. A grand, ancient world quickly fell into the edge of extinction..

There, a boy dressed in red, emerged from the unknown darkness to fight off the one corrupting destiny. With the power of a nefarious demon, the courage of a holy angel and holding a legendary, omniscient sword that transcends all.. the boy and his companions had overthrown this unpredictable menace and returned the grand world to it's original state, restoring history and all life. Shortly after victory, the boy and his companions had went back to their home. The boy was refered to as the Hero of Chronicles and was praised as a generous deity and their savior. The story of the Hero of Chronicles was passed down, generation after generation in many worlds and soon became the greatest legend..

Though all seemed well, a new wind carrying evil and disaster has blown from the oceans and onto the lands.. In the world of Symphonia, a great cataclysm occured. An ancient evil has caused countless of violent storm across the lands of Symphonia. The oceans and seas had invaded the kingdoms and countries of the world, destorying them. This was known as the Grand Flood, where the ancient lands of Symphonia became nothing more but a memory.. The inhabitants tried to stop the cataclysm from destorying their world by attempting to slay the God of Tempest. But for them, it was futile.. The people of Symphonia believed the legendary saviors and the Hero of Chronicles would rise up and defeat the evil like before.. But.. The Hero of Chronicles never came. No one knew what happened to him, or where he went.. With their hopes broken, all the people could do was wait for their fate and pray to the gods for aid. Symphonia quickly became a water graveyard of endless storms..

It is the present day in Dayasagara, a rebuilt world of Symphonia where many lands were lost to the Grand Flood and only a few numbers of islands survived. Son of Mayor Ashfel and the known as the Incarnation of the Hero of Chronicles, Cho Ashfell, lives in the small but peaceful island of Susano. He has plans on becoming a sailor to explore the oceans in search of valuable discovery. Nothing seemed out of the oridinary, until an unpredictable disaster strikes the peaceful village of Susano, which forces Cho and his friends to journey in the unknown world that was destoryed so long ago..

-Races-

Human - A common race in Dayasagara. They are balanced users of magic and are known to possess great potential. Most humans live on islands, though some pefer to live their lives travelling the oceans. Humans are consider the most intelligent and advanced species in Dayasagara compared with the other races.

Reiran - A clan of bird like creatures, with similar characteristics to humans. Reirans have the ability to soar through the skies, being born with feathered wings and light bodies. The older the Reiran is, the more longer his or her wings grow. The longer they are, the longer they fly in the skies. Some Reirans can even fly for an entire week straight without even tiring out. Reirans can manipulate fire. Most Reirans appear to be female, only a total of fifty males are born in a year which is impacting on the population greatly. Reirans live on islands, just like humans but they pefer to live on high mountains.

Arboan - A clan which are descendants of both the Nemus, tree golem like creatures, and the Elven. Arboans are small, eerie doll like creatures who can never express their emotions through facial expressions. If an Arboan is born with a certain face, they can never change the expression as it symbolizes their kind. Arboans are powerful manipulaters of magic. They also have the potential to use Alchemy.

Tennin - A clan of mythical beings, usually refered to as Guardian Spirits. In the legend of the Hero of Chronicles, the boy and his friends were guided by a white Tennin. Tennins are usual fairy like creatures but some can be human. Some believe that the Tennin are giant toads, bigger then mountains that live deep within the ocean.

Husca - A tribe of ruthless demons. They have the heads of snakes and bodies of boars, making them incredibly dangerous. Most Huscas are pirates that ravage the seas, some are humanoid mercenaries that will only work for wealth.

Bio-Cho is the son of the Mayor of the village in Susano Island. He is a young swordsman student who is believed to be the Incarnation of the Hero of Chronicles. Many agree with this fact and praise Cho as an actual hero, though Cho seems to dislike this fact and likes to be alone by himself, feeling like a regular young boy. He is kind hearted, always giving a friendly welcome to anyone he meets. He has an act of sudden courage and chilvary, where he quickly runs off when someone is in trouble and need in help. Cho spends his time, enjoying his regular daily life and dislikes when something changes, as he needs to adapt to this which he doesn't enjoy doing. To most people, Cho seems as a dull, oridinary and typical person with a weak, simple personalty. Cho's hobbies are swordsmanship and as well as fishing, though he does admit that it's difficult to get any fish. He seems to have good relationships with almost everyone in the village of Susano, especially with his family.

Like Cho's resemblance to his father, Pallas has a strong resemblance to their mother, even inheriting the same interests such as cooking, as for Cho inheriting swordsmanship and fishing from his father. Unlike Cho, Pallas is shy and timid around other people and often stays quiet. She is only talkitive around Cho, or her parents. Her affection towards Cho is known to be a little out of hand, at times she may accidently say something embarassing to Cho such as asking him to "marry her" or if it would okay for him to "sleep with her" (she dislikes sleeping alone..).

Kliser Irving (Swordsman Teacher and Cho's uncle), Kashina (Cho's mother), Claude Ashfell (Mayor) and Denden (March's younger brother) are all allies.

They're not even in the books anymore, as if they were just.. Erased and never existed. But, that'll be explained more later in the story... But, it's rumored that the legendary, half-demon clan "Shinigami" somehow still lives, but is now named "Sin", but no one knows that it's the legendary clan "Shinigami"... But, it is only rumors.. Anyway, Clay is very athletic and good at pretty much any sport. He's a decent swordsman as well. He's very c0cky when it comes to sports, but whenever it's anything else, he's usually calm and thinks things through. Nothing like Clay Tagomai, huh? Clay also wears Clay's angelic costume (human form).

Bio-The white prince of the Heron Clan. The Heron Clan is like the royal family of the Reiran race. Their white wings and long, golden hair symbolize this.. But, the clan was almost extinct when humans set the forest aflame, trying to lure the clan out, so they could capture them and sell them to idiotic nobles who would pay a VERY large amount for it. But, all these humans did was extinct the clan.. All that is left is the White Prince, Rayson and his sister, Leanne. Due to this incident, Rayson detests all humans except for Clay. Clay was the one who found Rayson and Leanne dying of hunger, due to them flying a very long way to get to the island.. Clay then took them to his home and took care of them, ignoring Rayson's orders to leave them be. Rayson grew to believe in this human.. So, he lives with Clay in his home, with Leanne and Ulki, his bodyguard that was sent to find any survivors of this lost clan from his advisor...

That's good. Now that you're finished, I guess we can finally start.


Prologue..
In a strange forest, a familar boy is seen in front of a familar girl.. Cho-... Huh? *looks around* What in the world.. Where am I? Girl-Did you forget? Cho-?.. *looks at the girl* Forget..? Girl-Did you forget.. our promise? Cho-Promise? What promise..? Girl-So you did forget.. Cho-*reaches out towards the girl* Hey, what are you talking about..? Tears roll down the girl's cheeks.. Cho-*stops* ...? Girl-Why did you forget..? You said you would always keep your promise, didn't you? Cho-H-hey.. Why are you.. Girl-Because of you not keeping our promise.. Suddenly the girl vanishes.. Cho-?! *looks around* Suddenly the sky turns red and a giant demonic face appears above Cho.. Cho-*looks up in shock* ?! W-what the!? The ground starts to break apart and flames erupt everywhere.. Thousands of screams are heard from all directions. Cho-*body gets covered in flames* !! Uga.. *holds his head* ..gaaah!! *suddenly he explodes into a million pieces*

Awakening, inside a classroom [Kliser's Dojo]..
Cho-*holding his head, screaming* Aaaagh!! Make it stop! ... Eh? *opens his eyes and looks around* Students are all staring at Cho strangely.. Student 1-Er.. Are you alright, Cho-san? Student 2-What was that all about? You scared the crap out of me.. >_< Cho-... *rubs his head* Uh.. A brown haired man, with a brown beard, wearing swordmans robes appears in front of Cho and smacks him hard on the head with a wooden sword.. Kliser-sensei-Don't cause such noisy disruptions, IDIOT!! Ò_Ó Cho-Gugh! *flies into the wall, crashing* Ugh! Students-Oyaah! *screaming in panic, fear or in shock* Kliser-sensei-... *sighs* Idiot student.. Don't fall asleep during my class like that. I expect better from you then this! Cho-*cough, cough* Ugh.. *a large bump appears on his head where Kliser smacked him* I-I'm sorry, sensei.. *gets up, rubbing his bump* Ow, ow, ow.. Kliser-sensei-... Hmph! Anyways, let's carry on with our class.. Students-*in a loud tone* Hai! Cho-... *coughs* Jeez.. That was a bit rough.. *walks toward Kliser* Kliser-sensei-Well, anyways.. Seeing how Cho fell asleep the past few minutes, it seems I'm going to have to re-teach everything once more.. And once I'm finished, there will be a test coming up.. So prepare! Students-*in a unenthusiastic tone* Hai.. Kliser-sensei-Grr.. *yells at a very loud tone* That was weak!! Ò_Ó Say that again, in a much more enthusiastic voice! Students-*in a loud tone* H-hai! Cho-... *lines up with the other students* Kliser-sensei-*cough* Anyways.. Cho's narration-My name is Cho Ashfell, 15 years old though I'm turning 16 tommorrow.. I'm the son of Claude Ashfell, who's the mayor of our small village. People expect alot out of me since they believe I'm the Incarnation of the Hero of Chronicles.. Despite that, my life has been pretty normal.. Rarely has there been anything wild or out of the oridinary. Things were as normal as it could get.. But lately, I've been getting these strange dreams each night.. A dream where I keep meeting a girl who talks about a promise.. And after, everything around me perishes into nothingness.. Along with myself. I don't understand why I keep having this same dream over and over..

Outside, somewhere on the island..
Cho-*leaving a building and walking off along with other students* ... A brown haired boy wearing green overalls appears behind Cho, with his arms wrapped around his neck.. Boy-Falling asleep in class? That's not like you, Cho-chan! Cho-Ugh! Let go of me.. -_- I can't breathe.. Cho's narration-That's Ryo Irving, Kliser-sensei's younger brother and my second cousin. Though we have our differences, we get along well with each other.. Ryo-Slacking off in class, screaming like a cry-baby! You're losing your touch as the Hero of Chronicles, bud! Cho-*gags* I don't care about that.. Let go! Ryo-*chokes harder* Come on, you have to show some arrogance of being the Incarnation of some legendary hero! A timid looking girl, with pale green hair and wearing a red shirt with violet pants is standing beside Ryo.. Girl-Ano.. Ryo-san.. I think you're hurting Cho-kun. Ryo-... I guess you're right.. *releases Cho* Cho-*rubs his neck and coughs* Cho's narration-That girl over there is Ninian. She's a bit quiet and shy around people.. Strangely enough, that's how all the girls are on this island. Even my mom and sister are the same.. How bizzare. Though she isn't a confident person, she is very kind-hearted. Cho-*takes a deep breath and sighs* Ninian-Are you alright.. Cho-kun? Cho-*stares at Ninian, giving her a smile* Yeah, it's not that big of a deal.. ^_^ Ninian-Ah! *looks away, with her face blushing* Uhm.. (He's smiling at me..) Cho-Huh? What's wrong, Ninian? Ninian-U-Uhm.. It's.. Uhm.. Cho-... You're quite weird sometimes, you know? Ninian-W-weird? Ryo-I think that makes her cute looking, don't you think? ^_^ Ninian-... March-Hey!! >_< Cho-Huh? *looks off to the distance, seeing a boy in dark purple/blue overalls with a brown cowlick* March! March-*walking towards Cho and everyone else* ... *looks around* Hmm? Where's Clay? And.. those three bird guys we befriended with? Cho-Class just ended.. Clay and some of the students should probably be finished with the test.. Ryo-Three bird guys? You know.. last time I checked, one of them was a chick. March-You think I would give any concern to that? Besides.. It's hard to tell the gender of Reiran species. Ryo-Are you serious? You can't tell the difference between a female and male Reiran? A male Reiran would look strong and muscular.. Like me! ^_^ A female Reiran has.. *puts his hands on his chest and moves them as if he was groping something* These.. Ninian-... *sweatdrops* March-... You're an idiot, Ryo.

[Admiral44]

Deep Voice-It is hard to tell the difference of some reirans.. It's a common mistake to think that Prince Rayson is a girl.. There is a man leaning against a tree near everyone, wearing a large brown jacket and brown pants/boots and has a short-trimmed beard. He has a book in his hands.. [Clay's Notes: This is Ulki.. You're probably wondering where his wings are. His wings are hidden in that huge jacket somehow, I don't know how he does it.. He's intelligent and mature. He's sorta of like the father-figure in my, Leanne, and Rayson's life, since...] Ulki-*looks around* Hmm.. Clay's not out yet.. *looks at everyone* Is he still in the-- There are loud shouting noises coming from within the building and two young men walk out, one has really spikey and dark hair, with tan skin, and is wearing a red shirt and has light brown elbow plates and light brown pants and brown boots, and wearing a green headband, with a white wristband on his left hand, while the other has green hair, which is spikey and points to the left, with green eyes, wearing the same thing only his sleeves are cut off and he has an hatchet attached to his back and he has a white headband, plus he has light brown knee-plates as well and a light brown vest, and a white wristband on his right hand. Clay will acquire his Angel Costume (Human Form) later. (Clay's Notes: The darker one of the those two is me. The other one is Boyd.. Me and Boyd get into a lot arguments over.. Anything, really. Usually, Rolf argues with Boyd, too. So, it's usually us against him, until Kent comes in and stops it.. It's like I'm one of their brothers, too. ^_^''] Clay-Hey, everyone! Explain to Boyd that the most important thing in a battle is skill! Boyd-No, it's power, you idiot!! Clay-What are you talking about?! If you have all power and no skill, you'll never hit the opponent, no matter how "powerful" you are! Boyd-But, if you have no power, even if you hit the opponent, it won't do any damage! So, it's pointless! Ulki-Actually, you both have points.. But, they're both an necessity in a battle. *looks at Boyd* But, what are you doing here, Boyd? Isn't this a swordsmanship dojo? o_O Boyd-*ignores the last part and looks at Clay* See! You need both! Clay-*vein pops out* That's not what you were saying earlier! Clay/Boyd-*smoke comes out of head and they just start shouting random things at eachother* Ulki-*sighs and a sweatdrop appears overhead* ...

[Magoseong]

Cho-*looks at Clay and Boyd* Clay.. Boyd-san.. ^_^'' Ryo-*looks at Ulki* Yo, Elky! How are you doing! March-"Ulki".. It's Ulki, Ryo.. Not whatever you said. Ryo-Aw, he doesn't mind me calling him Elky, right Elky? ^_^ March-... Ninian-... March-... *looks at Clay and Boyd* You two.. Stop fighting over such a stupid subject. >_< Cho-March, it's pointless in stopping them with just words.. ^_^ By the way, why are you here? Weren't you supposed to be helping you family? March-That's too troublesome for me to handle. Ryo-You're just lazy, bud.. March-Being lazy beats being stupid, like you.. >_> Ryo-*vein pops out* What the hell did you say?! March-You heard me.. Ryo-You wanna start something?! March-You're not worth my time.. Ninian-*looks around* Stop, stop.. Please don't start a feud! Ryo-*looks at Ninian* But--.. Fine! Whatever you say, Nini-chan. March-... *yawns* I wasn't gunna do anything anyways.. March-*looks at Cho* Anyways.. Cho. Your dad told me to tell you that he's gunna go fishing and you should get the fishing equipment ready. Cho-Eh? So soon? Why? March-*shrugs* Nnuah.. I don't know why you and your old man is so obsessed with fishing. Cho-Cause it's fun.. March-As fun as looking up and watching the clouds.. Anyways, you better get going. Cho-*runs off* Well, then! I'll see you guys later! March-... *coughs and waits for Cho to leave* ... *looks at everyone* Well, then.. so..? Ryo-... So? March-Well..? Ninian-... What? March-... You guys are slow. -_- When do we start getting ready for Cho's birthday tommorow? Ryo-Birthday?! I totally forgot about his birthday! >_< March-*sarcasticly* That's quite shocking! O_o I never suspected someone like you, Ryo, a self-centered, selfish, immature moron, to remember his own friend's birthday! Gasp! -_- Ryo-... Are you making fun of me? -_- Ninian-Cho's birthday? March-What are you gunna get the guy? I already got him a present.. Ryo-What? o_O March-Just a new fishing rod. Ryo-Oh, darn it! That's what I was gunna get him! Damn.. That means my present has to be thousand times better! March-And what about the rest of you? Ninian-Uhm.. I.. I made homemade cookies.. March-Cookies again? Aren't you going to get him something else? Ninian-Ano.. I was going to but I.. *starts poking her two index fingers together, blushing* I.. March-... And what about the rest of you?

[Admiral44]

Clay/Boyd-*ignoring everyone and are now pulling on each other's cheeks and tears are running down their eyes* Grr--!! Ulki-*sighs and picks up Boyd and Clay* Knock it off.. Knock it off! *drops them both* Clay-*lands on back* Oww!! >_< Boyd-*somehow lands on his head ...* Oof! >_< Ulki-*sighs and to everyone else* It's Cho's birthday tomorrow? Hmm, no one told me.. I'll have to get him something. Clay-*stands up and rubs back* Yeah.. I'm gonna have Rayson and Leanne sing at the party or something.. Boyd-What? Why? o_O Clay-I dunno.. Because their songs are beautiful.. I'm the only one they've sung to.. ^_^ Boyd-*pokes Clay's face* ...You're getting soft... -_- Clay-Shut up! >_<

[Magoseong]

March-You don't have to get the kid a present, ya know. Don't see why he deserves so much stuff.. Ryo-Are you stupid? Cho's our friend. And besides, why are you saying things like that? You also got him a present! March-My dad forced me to go out and buy a present for Cho. -_- If I had my own free will, I wouldn't bother getting him anything.. Ryo-... How come all of us refer to you as a friend? >_>'' Kliser-sensei-What are you all doing, just standing there? Ryo-Uh? *turns around and faces toward Kliser* Ah! Sensei! So, what have you prepared? Kliser-sensei-Hmm? Prepared? What do you mean? Ryo-You know! For Cho's birthday? Kliser-sensei-Birth.. Day? March-Cho's 16th birthday is tommorrow.. Don't tell me that you, Cho's cousin and teacher, has forgotten such a day.. -_-'' Kliser-sensei-*vein pops out* ... Smack!! March-Gugh! *falls down, after getting hit by a log which crashed into his forehead* Agh! @_@ Kliser-sensei-Shut up! Don't talk to me like that! Of course I didn't forget Chopin's birthday. Ò_Ó Ninian-*notices Kliser's face and depression lines appear over her face* Nyuu.. How scary.. Ryo-*depression lines also appear over his face* S-Sensei.. D-don't make faces like that.. ^_^'' Kliser-sensei-... Ryo-... *coughs* Anyways, Sensei.. Since you didn't forget, what present did you get for Cho? Kliser-sensei-Heh.. *swings his arm back, then in an overdramatic way, he tosses his arm foward and points his index finger into the sky* ITS!!! Ninian-Ah-! Ryo-What?! o_O Kliser-sensei-... *suddenly smiles in a childish way* A secret.. ^_^ Ryo-H-hey.. -_- March-... *gets up, coughing* Ugh.. *a large bump appears on his forehead* Eh.. Ryo-Sensei! I have to know what you got for Cho so I won't end up getting the same thing for him! Kliser-sensei-You still don't have a present for Cho? Ryo-Eh.. It's not like I forgot or anything but.. I was just caught up with my own stuff and all, and.. Just tell me what your present is! >_< Kliser-sensei-Hah hah.. Don't worry. I assure you that you won't get Cho the same thing I'm going to give him. It's a special gift.. It goes with the one entitled Incarnation of Chronicles.. Ryo-Special gift for the Incarnation of Chronicles? Kliser-sensei-Hmm.. You'll see when tommorow comes. In the meantime, you better hurry up and find a present for Cho. Ryo-... What am I going to get him? >_>'' Kliser-sensei-Go to the merchant boat and see what he can has in stores.. Maybe he will have something you can buy for Cho. Ryo-Merchant boat? How are we going to get there? Kliser-sensei-By swimming.. March-*depression lines appear over his face* S-swimming?! Hold on a minute! Ninian-March-san? Ryo-Hey.. I don't want to swim and get myself all soaked.. -_- Besides, I don't have any Gald to buy anything at the moment.. T_T Kliser-sensei-Hmm.. Well, you could have Cho's parents help out.

[Admiral44]

Clay-*sighs with relief* ... (Good.. We don't have to swim.. T_T) Ulki-*notices Clay* ? Boyd-*points at self* That include me, too? Do I have to get Cho a gift? Clay-*looks at Boyd* No! You just go home and wait for me to come by! -_- Boyd-*vein pops out* No! I'm coming too, since you said that! You jerk! -_- Clay-*crosses arms* Fine.. *looks at Ulki* Ulki, I'm gonna go head and hang out with my people for a bit.. Go home and tell Leanne and Ray-san I'll be home soon.. [Clay's Notes: Ray-san is my nickname for Rayson.. Pronounced the same, but still.. Show's respect, I guess.. ^_^''] Ulki-Alright, Clay.. Don't be out long.. *leaves* Clay-Okay! To Cho's house!.. Or wherever we're gonna find Cho's parents! ^_^ Boyd-*sweatdrops* ...

[Magoseong]

Ryo-All right! I'm gunna get Cho something amazing! March-For some reason, it'll probably end up being the opposite for Cho.. -_- Ryo-Hmph! You're stingy.. Ninian-Uhm.. can I come? March-Why? Ryo-*overpowers March's voice* Of course, Nini-chan! Ninian-Ah.. March-... Everyone-*walks away* Kliser-sensei-*waves his hand*

Arrival at Cho's house..
Ryo-Here we are! Cho's house! *walks toward the door* March-... Ninian-... *loks at March* March-san.. March-Wha? Ninian-Do you think.. Uhm.. I should get something else for Cho-kun? March-... *shrugs* Dunno.. That's up to you. You already have cookies for him, don't you? Ninian-But.. It doesn't seem much.. Ryo-*knocks on the door* Oy! Anyone home? ^_^ Can you open the door for me? It's Ryo and the others! Cho's friends? The door is opened by a red haired girl and behind her is Cho.. Pallas-Ah.. Ryo-senpai! Ryo-Haha! Hey Pallas-chan! How ya doing? ^_^ Cho-Ryo? What are you doing here? Ryo-Eh? Cho? Weren't you suppose to go fishing with your old man? Cho-There was a slight change of plans.. I was just gunna head to the Mountain Forest to salvage some fruits for Gummies.. March-*walks toward Ryo* Mountain forest, you say? Isn't it dangerous to go there around this time of the year? Cho-Not really.. Just a couple of wild Vermants. [Cho's notes-Vermants are slime creatures composed of chemicals that can be used for medicine.. or to poison a person. They're probably the only monsters living on this idea..] Cho-And also, it seems worth the payment I'm getting.. Ryo-Payment? Cho-For each fruit I collect is worth one hundred gald. Ryo-Really! Then if that's the case, we're coming with ya! Cho-Eh? Why? o_O

[Admiral44]

Boyd-Hey, wait a sec.. Why should we do that? He's getting payed for it.. -_- Clay-Well, because.. It's not like we have anything else to do in this boring village but spar and play sports.. >_< Boyd-Yeah, that's true.. Clay-And besides, friends help friends out, after all.. At least, that's what I think.. ^_^ Boyd-We should go play soccer instead.. >_> Clay-*smacks Boyd in the back of the head* Shut up.. Boyd-Oww.. Clay-...

[Magoseong]

March-Soccer is such a dull sport.. I don't understand why you guys like it so much.. -_- Ryo-*turns around* Hey, hey.. If we help out Cho, we'll also get paid in the progress. Not only will I be helping out Cho, but I'll also get the money to buy him a presen-- Cho-Buy me what? o_O Ryo-*coughs and turns around* Ah! Nothing! Let's just get going! Cho-... *coughs* Jeez, Ryo.. You sure are acting a bit weird. March-You just noticed that? Ryo-H-hey.. Cho-*walks out the door and down the steps, followed by Ryo* Pallas-Onii-chan! Please be careful! ^_^ Cho-*looks at Pallas* Of course.. Pallas-Heh heh.. *closes the door and goes back inside* Ryo-Ah, ah.. She sure acts alot different when she's talking to you.. Cho-Ah, really? Ninian-Cho-kun! Cho-Huh? *notices Ninian now* Oh, Ninian? You're here too? March-She was here the entire time.. Cho-Eh? [March-Despite the friendship between Cho and Ninian, Cho is pretty slow noticing Ninian.. I suppose it makes sense since Ninian is so quiet.. Typical shy girls.] Ninian-Uhm.. Could I.. If it's alright, help you as well? Cho-Er.. I suppose. Ryo-Okay! Then it's settled, let's get going to Mountain forest! March-*coughs and sighs* Jeez.. Another boring, tiresome day.. I wonder if anything will change on this boring island of ours..

[Admiral44]

Clay-*looks at March* You're dull.. -_- Boyd-*at the same time as Clay, only louder* You're dull! >_< Clay-*sweatdrops* ...Anyway, let's get going... The sooner, the better.. Can't let Rayson be out looking for me.. T_T Boyd-Yeah, good thinking.. Don't want a certain, Snot-Nosed-- ????-Boooyyydd!! Boyd-! Then, a young boy wearing shorts-overalls that are teal green, like his hair, and his eyes are dark green and he is wearing a blue t under his overalls and has a short bow on his back is runninng towards everyone.. Clay-Hey, Boyd.. Isn't that Rolf-- Rolf-*stops in frontof everyone, panting* G-geez, I finally found you.. *looks up at Boyd* Kent told me to go with you! >_< Boyd-W-what.. Why would he do something-- Clay-*smirks* Heh heh.. Don't worry about it, Rolf. You can come with us.. ^_^ Boyd-*glares at Clay and smoke comes out of head* C-Clay! Clay-Shut up. ^_^

[Magoseong]

Cho-Ah, Rolf-san.. You're coming too? ^_^'' March-... Let's just go. -_- Everyone leaves..

Arrival at Mountain forest..
Cho-Mountain forest, huh? *looks around* There were some rumors saying that ghosts from the days old still lurk around here.. Ryo-Ghosts? -_- *crosses his arms* Sounds like rubbish.. March-... Are you trembling, Ryo? Ryo-*makes a fist in front of him* S-Shut up!! I'm not trembling.. I'm not scared of freakin ghosts! It's not like if they touch, you get cursed and die or anything.. T_T ... Yeah! I'm not afraid of any ghosts! March-Quit denying it.. Your face has "I just p!ssed my pants" written all over it.. Ryo-!! *charges at March* I'm gunna kick your @$$, you son of a-- Cho-*holds Ryo back* R-Ryo.. Remember why we're here? Don't fight.. Ninian-Is there really ghosts? Cho-*releases Ryo after a while* Not that I would know of.. But the only things I encounter here were Vermants.. Nothing else. Ninian-R-really? Cho-I'm an atheist.. I don't believe in such beings. Ninian-... Ryo-*crosses his arms* T-teh! I didn't p!ss my pants.. >_> March-... Those two are obviously scared to move on. I suppose they can stay here in this area and wait for our return.. Ryo-W-what?! I'm coming! I.. March-We can get lost in this forest.. In case we do, you guys here can listen to us yelling so you can guide us out. If all we go in this forest, we're bound to get lost since none of us has good sense of direction. Especially me, being lazy.. Cho-*sweatdrops* ... He has a point. I've got lost in this forest couple of times.. Ryo-But, but! ... Fine, fine! >_< I'll stay here.. N-not because I'm scared though! Ninian-Uhm.. Allright.. March-Anyone else feeling scared? -_- *refuses to let anyone answer* No? Kay? Okay.. Cho-*sweatdrops* Er, you didn't let anyone answer yet.. March-Movin on. *walks off* Let's get whatever we came here for and such.. Cho-...

[Admiral44]

Rolf-*running forward* Right, I should come with you guys.. I have a good sense of direction, after all-- Boyd-*grabs Rolf by the head when he went passed* Stop right there, Pee-Wee.. You're staying here. Rolf-But, why?! And don't call me Pee-Wee! Boyd-Because.. You'll just get in the way.. Besides, you get scared easy and you'll start crying.. No need for that. Stay here.. Rolf-Well, you're.. A meathead! *gets free of Boyd's grip and runs back and sits down next to a tree and puffs out his cheeks* Hmph! Clay-*looks at Rolf* Heya, Rolf.. Uhh, I don't have a weapon.. So, could I-- *Rolf's Short Bow and his quiver full of arrows flies at Clay* ... *catches them and attaches them to his back* Thanks, thanks.. ^_^ *follows after March* Alright, we can go now. ^_^ Boyd-... *follows after Clay*

[Magoseong]

Cho-... *sighs* Ninian-Uhm.. Cho-kun.. Cho-*looks at Ninian* Huh? What is it Ninian? Ninian-... Uhm.. ... .. Take care of yourself. Cho-Ah, right.. You three be careful too. Ryo-Hell, like as if we need to be careful in this position.. >_> Cho-Watch out for ghosts, Ryo.. *follows Boyd* Ryo-W-what?! That's not funny!! >_<

Deep within the forest..
March-... Cho-*looks around, looking amazed* Waah.. March-*looks at Cho* What's with that look? You seem like this forest is some kind of sancutary. Cho-I can't really help it.. It's nostalgic coming here. March-Huh? Nostalgic? Why? Cho-We used to play here often when we were younger, remember? March-Yeah, so? Cho-... *points at a large tree, larger then the other trees* That's the tree where Ryo climbed and couldn't get down after.. March-Your dad had to get him down. Stupid idiot.. -_- I told him not to do such a dumb thing.. Cho-*points at a certain location, basicly a plain spot surrounded by trees* And that's where we camped.. March-I remember Ninian crying because it was so dark. But, you trying to act like the tough guy you wanna be comforted her to sleep.. Cho-D-don't say it like that.. -_- I was just trying to make her feel better.. >_> I hate seeing people suffer. March-... Cho-*points at a large rock* And that's the rock which was rumored to be a gate leading to another world.. I remember that we all tried to move it before. But of course, none of us couldn't.. March-... Try moving, Cho. Cho-Huh? March-Come on, let's see if you can move it now.. ^_^ Cho-N-no way, I've gotten stronger from before.. But I don't think I can move it.
