Written by Mikaa
Concept Created by Mikaa (2006-11-08)
Characters created and owned by Camelot and Nintendo
Author's Note - This fic is based on a conceptual game idea I cooked up, though only parts of said concept will show up (largely so that I can use the whole idea later if I deem to). Hope you enjoy it.
WARNING - READ THE WARNING IN THE LAST THREE CHAPTERS - BE WARNED.
Oh, and before I forget, the Disclaimer will no longer be posted, as by now you surely have read it in Chapter 1, 2 and 3. If not, go reread those. In fact, you MIGHT want to do that anyway, as there are a few answers found when you reread these chapters back to back...:D
Chapter 4 - Gathering of the Light
The thought of which brought up several, shall we say, interesting notions. For one thing, Alex, or the Alex that was before the Aura awoke, always found Felix as a source of comfort, of trust, and an ally through darkest times. And true, they had found their way through nasty situations before circumstances resulted in the present muck known as the present. Ironically, the mere fact that Alex that was now in their midst was a woman seemed to be bringing, shall we say, OTHER ideas to mind, and she felt a pang of pity for him. It was not his fault that resulted in her present form. Alas, the workings of young minds.
She chuckled at that thought - what seperated HER from that category?
"Alex," Felix spoke, his face flush after Jenna wispered something at him - something best left unknown. "Just how are we supposed to stop, er, Alex, after what he did to us? I mean, look what happened when Sheba blasted him!"
"True," she spoke softly, gathering her strenght for what awaited. Flexing her neck and arms, she pointed a short ways off, a ray of light lancing from her fingers to strike the spot. The brilliant blast pierced the ground, resulting in a cloud of white dust rising. Ignoring the shouts of Felix and Ivan for the moment, Alex favoured the figure that emmerged from the blast.
The man standing before them wore clothing that was somewhat outlandish, hues of green dominated his shirt and pants, with a wierd orange "shield" emblem on the upper portion of his shirt. Blonde hair with silver streaks topped his average height, blue eyes with all the puzzlement and confusion of a man who had just lost contact with his mind. Which Alex knew was quite true - Igori had just been severed from his wife by Alex's actions.
Stepping forward, and ignoring the gasps and whispers behind her, Alex courtsied for the new arrival. "Igori, I hope you are able to sense the urgency of the situation."
The puzzlement in his eyes was still there, though the look faded as a glow on his left arm became noticable. Alex arched an eyebrow; there was suddenly an object there, a stone of smooth, dark substances that she did not recognize. Yet at the same time, the object radiated Aura Power. Maybe he would be as useful as she had hoped.
"Yes," he gasped, almost as if he was straining to speak, his next words far more controlled. "Though I hope you are able to send me back as well as bring me away from home."
"Easily corrected, I assure you. But I would ask that you assist us against a great evil that is approaching. If I understand it, the Emperor has allies and threatens our lands."
Igori's face showed what he thought of THAT cock and bull story, and Alex suddenly wondered if he would turn away. Yet he said nothing, but nodded his support. Alex sighed; Igori was a key player in her choice of allies, yet he also made her the most nervous - of the three she sought, he was the most emotionally unstable.
But, she mused as she fired another brilliant ray, he was far from the most unstable person. The next beam hit the ground near Igori, producing another cloud. This time, sharper gasps were heard behind Alex, for the figure that stood there resembled one of those present. Clad in dark grey pants and a dark brown shirt with blue emblems of Imil, the clothes were the only thing to tell the difference between Felix and Felix.
Nodding at the newcomer, Alex silently stared at him. Unstable was the last thing to describe this Felix, as she knew full well. Once as sane as the mad creature Kraden, then suddenly wise and intelligent, this Felix was also insanely gifted in the powers of psynergy. Not to mention in intelligence.
He returned her nod with one of his own, and silently gestured for her to continue. Well, two down, one to go.
The final ray she shot produced a cloud that dissapeared faster than the others, but you would never know that from the way the newcomer was dressed. Clad in grey slacks and shirt, with long, flowing silver hair that lengthened before their eyes, and silver eyes of his own that radiated power, this was the one ally that could rival Alex's own power.
Ironically, this newcomer was also Alex.
Like his two counterparts before him, Alex nodded silently. "I suspect my 'abduction' has to do with the dissapearance of Sheba in my world?"
Alex nodded, "Yes. I am asking that all three of you join me and my allies to defeat a great evil that threatens not only my world, but yours as well. Igori, my evil counterpart has summoned the Emperor as I am sure you know." Igori's eyes showed a brief flash of anger, but he nodded curtly.
Alex continued, "Felix, Kaiser Isaac has been summoned, and I hope that you will be willing to assist in stopping him." Felix bowed deeply, "I would be honored to assist."
Looking the final newcomer, Alex spoke, but not the one of Aura. "I will deal with Sheba."
Alex of Aura nodded, then frowned. Two Alexes were bad enough, and might become confusing. She decided to mill over that notion.
"Well, gentlemen, shall we?"
