"It could have been... who knows?" Jace shrugged.

~~~~~

"We need to get going. I need to gather a lot of magics and power," Leo stated with a small sigh.

~~~~~

Serenade huffed as she appeared to be exhausted, not at all up for another round after all. "H-hours..."

~~~~~

"Whoa... what in the world...?" Glenn blinked, a little astonished by the floating colony. "What's in this place, Anna?"

~~~~~

"Right, so when do we get saved...?" Jessica asked as she stepped back, raising her blade.

"Well... Some time between now and... We're going to die." Fenix groaned, gripping his sword.

"You again?" Came a voice.

OH DAMN! The dragon groaned, suddenly being flicked on the noise.

~~~~~

'It's HIS place!' Anna said, smiling as she ran, jumping up some floating rocks, completely neglecting the fact that she'd used spirits to fly up there, and that she could die if she was clumsy enough.

~~~~~

"H-hours?" John groaned, the caffeine buzz falling. "So... TIred... But... Still... Horny..."

~~~~~

"Why not... Ask master?" The demon asked.

~~~~~

"... So...?"

"Who wants to play Yatzee?" Aria asked.

The next morning, Zach awoke, looking out into the distance. "So... It seems your parents are back..." He mumbled, shifting. "Nervous..."

"Like he would give me anything," Leo spat.

~~~~~

"Ugh... can't... possibly..." Serenade groaned as well.

~~~~~

"...Nervous? Vhy are you nervous?" Alma asked as she sat beside Zach, also looking at the horizon.

~~~~~

"Ack! Whose place!?" Glenn cried out as he hopped behind her, panicking over her safety.

~~~~~

"Wow... this... this is not very... yeah." Jessica replied flabbergasted.

"Reis, you were right!" The man who'd flicked the dragon on the nose said. "There were people out here." He spoke, turning to the two.

"Ah! You're!"

"Hm... You two were back in Baticul." Valor spoke calmly.

~~~~~

'The greatest of ALL of them!' Anna said, suddenly slipping from a rock. 'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!' She squealed, falling and falling and falling some more.

~~~~~

"We can... More tonic..." John mumbled, grabbing a bright red one.

~~~~~

"Grrowr?" The demon asked, still a bit hazy.

And in the morning, Aria awoke, hearing the sound of an avalanche.

Jace really didn't. He was a heavy snoozer, that's for sure. He was just dead to the world.

~~~~~

"Come on," Leo merely said before he unsealed his wings, taking off.

~~~~~

"Wait... no... not now..." Serenade breathed.

~~~~~

"Anna!" Glenn darted through the skies toward the ground, grabbing the woman in the nick of time. "Phew..."

~~~~~

"Yes, yes we are..." Jessica narrowed her eyes, not at all appreciative of the save.

"Hm?" Reis glanced at the young woman, but did not pay any mind to anyone else.

"Well then, I suppose I'll just ask. What are two soldiers like yourselves doing this far out from your capital?" Valor asked casually. He then turned to Reis. "Do you want to head back?" He asked in a different tone altogether. "You're feeling alright, yes?"

"... You know it's rude to ask a question and then ignore the person you asked the question to!" Fenix said, sounding a slight bit irritated.

"My apologies." Valor calmly replied.

"Okay, that just makes it worse! Can you at least sound sincere?"

"Perhaps."

"GAH!" Fenix fumed. "You're worse than that damn cat lady!"

~~~~~

'Mrph.' Anna groaned. 'I was okay!' She said. Liar. 'Anyway, the location of this place was scribbled in the margins by someone who owned the book before. I found that, so this is my prize! This time, I will be the master summoner and nobody will be able to stop me!'

"Except anyone stronger than the summons." Said an odd old man who was sitting atop a floating platform reminiscent of a lotus flower.

'Well, yeah, but that's just... GRAB HIM!'

~~~~~

"B-but..." John mumbled, frowning. "Aww, we haven't filled your tummy yet..." John mumbled, sighing. "Wow... Crashing..." He sighed.

~~~~~

"Mmm." The demon spoke, her wings expanding and flying behind him. "Where?" She asked. "Mmm... Once... In my former life... I went to The floating Island... Of Exire... To find powerful techniques..."

~~~~~

"Hey... Would you wake up?" Aria asked, yawning. "There is something odd afoot." She spoke to the man.

~~~~~

"Well... I am still not sure of how to face your parents... I am unsure that they would trust me..." Zach admitted.

"Vhy? You have done vell, Zach. You proved yourself... I believe zhat anyway," Alma replied as she placed an arm around her husband's shoulder.

~~~~~

"H-huhnn... fi... what?" Jace murmured as he forced himself awake. He sat up in bed for a moment, then jumped out, dressed and rushed outside to see what Aria was speaking of.

~~~~~

"Powerful techniques? Exire... I have heard of that. My parents wouldn't shut up about it when they taught my brother about it," Leo replied with a groan.

~~~~~

"ZZZZzzzzz..." Right, Serenade crashes under caffeine rather easily. Well, maybe a round two may be in the near future, but definitely not now.

~~~~~

"H-huh?" Startled, Glenn clapped his hands and released a barrier between the both of them. He then conjured a solid and not easily breakable ice sword using the mist that surrounded them. Leaping onto platform, he threw a downward slash at the summon.

~~~~~

"...Yeah, and saving us didn't earn you points, buddy," Jessica replied rather snottily as she placed a hand onto her hip. "Just bug off!"

"Well, I suppose I can leave. The ornery dragon's still here." Valor said, shrugging. "Reis, ready to go?" He asked.

".......... Look, sorry..." Fenix said begrudgingly. "Look... We're here to find a replacement core for the Key."

"... The sword my father gave her sister?" Valor asked Reis with a blink.

~~~~~

"... The hell is your problem?" Maxwell asked, suddenly casting meteors on the two of them. He then floated in midair. "... What do you want?"

'Pact. Now.'

~~~~~

So... Uh... Dey get sleepy time now?

~~~~~

"Maxwell... Is there..." The demon groaned, thinking about her past life too much starting to give her a headache.

~~~~~

Out in the distance, the results of a landslide could be seen, four tiny figures and a dragon visible in the distance.

~~~~~

"Well... They'll probably blame me for that woman's fate..." Zach admitted.

"No, zhey vill not... I have never met ze voman, so zhey could not possibly be devastated over it, harsh az it soundz," Alma stated.

~~~~~

Jace widened his eyes and stepped back for a moment. "Whoa... geez, what's going on?" He mumbled to himself before jogging over to the others. "Hey, what are you all doing here!?" He cried out.

~~~~~

"Maxwell... well don't think too much on it," Leo grunted before head off in the direction of the Exire. "Powerful techniques... bet there are magics beyond control too!"

~~~~~

Glenn leaped back, narrowly avoiding the meteor. "We need your help, whether or not you want to!" He called before throwing a wave of flames at Maxwell.

~~~~~

"Yes... in fact it is. Why?" Reis asked as she turned to the soldiers. Jessica held out her blade, which caused Reis to widen her eyes for a moment. "Wow, of all the people... I happen to cross the Scion of Lorelei already?"

"Well we did run into them before." Valor pointed out. "But they're a bit... Anyway, what did you do to it?"

"... We didn't DO anything! We need to get the thing fixed, okay?" Fenix huffed.

~~~~~

"You couldn't try asking politely?" The old spirit asked. "Honestly, who taught you two manners? An Ape?" He continued as the flames lapped off in any direction harmlessly.

'............. WHUP HIS BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT!" Anna pleaded, growing frustrated.

~~~~~

"Hnn?" The demon growled with a blink. "So what do we do now?" She asked, stretching as her leathery wings seemed to glide through the air.

~~~~~

"Ah, it seems there are more people here." Valor said, hearing the voice and seeing Jace's approach.

"Oh... You two." Aria shrugged. "And some other people."

"... And I thought this would be quiet..." Fenix mumbled.

~~~~~

"Not devastated... Just mistrusting..." Zach sighed. "I mean... They saw her rally..."

"I know, and vhy vould zhey place ze blame on you?" Alma asked, growing irritated with the man, who had no hope. "Look, I am going to go off before seeing zhem. Need to cool off."

~~~~~

Jace glanced at all five of them before stating, "I thought THIS would be quiet...There's a dragon too... What's this all about?"

Reis shrugged. "Too many people... fuck." She mumbled to herself before turning away.

Jessica merely explained herself, "I am the scion of Lorelei, and I am only here to seek out Gold Fluorite to augment this blade and return it to its former glory. This is very important to me!"

~~~~~

"Hunt down the powerful abilities, what else?" Leo replied as he lifted his hand into the air, summoning a purple ball in his hand. "There is definitely disrupting energy far off, south. I'm sure it's there."

~~~~~

"Right, Master of the four elements, damn." Glenn grit his teeth before throwing the ice blade to the side and conjured a silver blade from the ground. "This'll work! Tiger Fang!" He called as he lunged at Maxwell with multiple strikes.

"Ahp, ahp, ahp..." Maxwell said, backing up. "Would you please kindly cease this and go through the proper pact rites?"

'The proper what now? I'll just summon the king...'

"You don't know the rites but..." Maxwell groaned.

~~~~~

"Grrrowr." The demon groaned, "But... Bad people can't... Growr."

~~~~~

"Right, well... Going to leave now." Valor said. "Ta-ta. By the by, there is a cave north of town where you may be able to find some." He explained, walking up to Reis. "Want a quick jump?" He asked.

"... Bastard..." Fenix groaned, turning to Jessica. "Let's go." He told her.

"Oh, well that was... Boring." Aria said. "But... There is something going on then." She said.

Glenn landed onto his feet, huffed due to being made a fool of, then turned away, walking to the edge and letting Anna converse with Maxwell.

~~~~~

"...What of you? You aren't bad... can you access it in any way?" Leo asked as his arms were folded.

~~~~~

"Yeah, is he coming back?" Jace asked Jessica as Jessica turned to answer the elf. "Ye-ye-WHOA!" She cried out, shocked. "Wait, you two are... elves... I've never seen an elf before!"

Reis nodded slowly in response to Valor's question. "I... please."

Zach sighed. 'Sorry, it's just nerves... They haven't exactly been too keen on me... That's all.' He thought to himself as he stepped out as well, heading in a different direction. Never mind the fact that, in his daze, he nearly bowled over the woman's parents.

"You!" The mother spoke.

"Ah..." Zach found himself tonguetied, unable to speak.

~~~~~

"Alright." Valor said, returning the two to the cave-home. "Well then... Do you suppose that those two children will be able to find this place?" he asked, looking the woman in the eyes.

~~~~~

"Am I going to come ba... What?" Fenix asked, a bit stunned at Valor and Reis' sudden vanishing, though secretly a bit glad for it.

And that was when the aforementioned dragon roared as the group. 'Snacks. Now.'

~~~~~

"I did... Once..." The demon groaned slightly, holding her head and flying unsteady, bumping into him a bit.

~~~~~

"Hey, you. Is she dumb or just contradictory?" Maxwell asked Glenn, content to not have him sit in the background.

Glenn turned around to Maxwell and replied smugly, "She's just contradictory... and brash. But definitely not dumb. Any way to just guide her into forming the pact?"

~~~~~

"Look, just don't worry about it. I'm sure you can just grab it or something. I can find some other magics without being a goody two-shoes," Leo replied as he neared Exire. "There it is!"

~~~~~

"...Yeah, uh, sorry, not today..." Jessica took a step back, gulping. Jace gripped his knife, knowing that he couldn't stand a chance. However...

Quickly, he turned to Aria and spoke, "Any way to take it on, Aria?"

~~~~~

"The children? I highly doubt it. But then again, I underestimate. Who knows? But for now, I rather think about... well their existence, honestly," Reis told Valor.

~~~~~

"Vhere iz Alma! Vhat have you done?" The father cried out in a brash, harsh tone, intent on attacking the man, for he was vulnerable without Alma.

"I..." Zach mumbled.

"Where iz our daughter?" The woman pressed.

"I don't know... She went for a walk..."

"I don't believe you for a zecond..."

'I knew it... We liberated the place... And they still don't trust me...' Zach thought, looking at his feet.

~~~~~

"How do you mean?" Valor asked, trying not to use any pet names, though it was clear he'd had to bite his tongue a little. "You know... I wonder... Maybe we should go and meet my proteges if and after those children arrive."

~~~~~

"... Well, I suppose that we should..." Aria said casually, then blasting the dragon in the face.

'Gah! I don't want to deal with it...' The dragon said, flying off.

~~~~~

"Urgh... Can't... Remember... The demon groaned as they landed, suddenly shuddering. "... Like... Hell... Can't... Be... THAT..." She muttered, grabbing her spear.

~~~~~

"..... No." Maxwell said irritably.

'... I say we blast him.' Anna said. 'Blasting solves everything.'

"You're the one that says to get the pact over and done with! Anna, we can't blast him either! I can't do crap to him! Hardly anything can!" Glenn cursed, clearly agitated.

~~~~~

Leo turned quickly at the demon, then backed away. "Hey, what the hell are you doing!?" He told her as he reached for a book.

~~~~~

"W-wait... who are you guys anyway!?" Jessica had already finished awing for the past 50 seconds at Aria's power. "I mean... Well just... hi."

Jace waved a hand at her rather casually. "Hey. You do know that you guys are in a hellhole?"

~~~~~

"I think we should visit them beforehand. So... what are your proteges like?" Reis asked as she stared at Valor's face for a moment, as if analyzing his expression.

~~~~~

"I do not believe you eizher. You better have a good explanation! I do not care if you are my son-in-law!" Frederic boomed as he lifted a hand.

"She just needed a few minutes alone... That's all..." Zach said, flinching.

Marie scowled. "Vhere iz my daughter!?" She asked angrily.

"I really don't know..." Zach groaned.

~~~~~

"Well, one was a prince, and the other a thief. I suspect they hate me, and they became Serenade's parents." Valor said. "I died by passing the sword onto them. I am sure that they'll be happy to see us." He laughed.

~~~~~

"... We're here on a mission, no matter how much of a hellhole it is." Fenix said. "Hey... I don't want to get frostbite here." He whispered.

"I agree." Aria said. "My pet, should we head back?" She asked.

~~~~~

"Grr..." The demon gripped the spear tightly. "Like... Hell..." She said, running at him. "Either die or kill me, but I won't be a damn slave!" She shouted, swinging at his face.

~~~~~

'Light?' Anna asked, summoning Origin.

"Oh, you're kidding me." Both the spirits said.
