Chapter 6:
Journey to a Distant Sky
It was morning now, the day after Sheena got her new weapon. She had it
concealed under her clothes, yet she could whip it out so it wouldn’t tear them.
Sheena was eating her breakfast, an omelet made by Colette. It was surprisingly
good, being made by Colette. Llyod was afraid to eat it, afraid she dropped an
eggshell in his by accident. There was none in Sheena’s at least. Zelos had
woken up, in combat clothes. They were green with white magic circles on them,
representing the spell First Aid. Seeing him dressed differently reminded Sheena
to change, as well.
She went to go change and came out in a loose blue shirt,
darker blue pants, and a very light blue headband. On the shirt, there was a
picture of Celsius, blasting ice in the symbol of an S, for Sheena. She had had
some of her combat clothes custom made, because she wanted to have things that
represented her. Also, they didn’t look half-bad either.
Lloyd was holding the Eternal Sword, and said nothing. He
didn’t know if he had made the right decision or not to help Zelos and Sheena,
and he was still in doubt of himself. Derris-Kharlan must have changed-- at
least that’s what he heard from Raine…
“Since Derris-Kharlan withdraws mana from this atmosphere, a
transportation to a different area could resolve in or mana, causing more land.
However, mana could not be as plentiful in that area, and so the land would die,
unless powered by some additional force, or power that almost has the same
properties of mana. Since this new world still has Summon Spirits we are
provided extra strength that may not be as good as man, but still able to flow
in our earth. The Summon Spirits’ powers have been the only thing close to doing
this. Derris-Kharlan…” This was the only part Lloyd heard during the
Professor’s random lecture. To everyone else, educational: to him, boring.
He decided it would be best to let Sheena see what was up
there. He didn’t want to see her go insane. Llyod kept eating until Sheena was
ready to go. Zelos came up behind her, ready to help. Llyod went outside and
everyone followed him.
Colette started to cry as Llyod held up his sword. Kratos
said nothing as a lavender beam came down to the blade. Sheena thanked Zelos
just before they disappeared. When they were fully gone, Colette hugged Llyod
and Dirk came up to comfort him. Kratos did the same, and now Sheena had finally
taken off. She was very anxious but she knew that even though Zelos was an
idiot, he was still a good friend. She did love him, but she didn’t allow
herself to.
When they were teleporting to Derris-Kharlan, Zelos said,” Hey Sheena, what do
you think’s up there?”
“Um, probably the voice and stuff.”
Zelos got a wicked look on his face and said, “They’re probably girls up
there now. I bet you Kratos- “Sheena cut him off with a smack, “You’re still
perversive!!!”
“Still though…” Zelos said, a red mark on his right cheek, “Do you think if they
were any he…?”
Even Sheena had to think about this one, but only for a minute.
“No, he still is not over Anna, so if there are any he probably didn’t.”
An hour later, they got to Derris Kharlan. The first thing Sheena saw was a
temple. Zelos approached it and so did Sheena. A man with a katana appeared. He
was dressed in blue, but his clothes had white streaks running through them.
“Hello. I am the Summon Spirit of the Moon. No relation to Luna my power, is not
light nor darkness, but just fully the moon. Now Ms. Summoner, what is your
pact?”
Sheena just kind of stood there. She didn’t know if she was ready to go back to
summoning or not. She made her decision and said….
