Chapter 20; Lights, camera, action!

Saiyoua looked towards the sky, her eyes narrowing bitterly.

"...They failed....damn, I'm getting so weak...something is zapping my power, but what could it be....? Did Marie-Maya do something foul to this body while she was in control?"

************************

"Lena, Karl." Taromecika addressed, his voice deep and gruff. "You failed to return with anything."

"I'm sorry master." Lena bowed. " Even though the crystals were not goddess stone I was going to return with them but...Kim

and Amy, the orbs of faith and destiny, appeared out of no where and both attacked me, I had to flea or else, I would have

been killed."

"If you keep failing, you'll wish you had been killed." The demon god said bitterly before turning his gaze on Karl.

" Your jell monster failed miserably. Summon a better beast next time. I'll give you and Lena only five more chances, fail me all

those times, and you know what'll happen to you."

"Yes master." The pair bowed.

"Hikari! Show us the next pure soul!"

"Yes master Taromecika." The demon woman bowed as she walked into the room closing her eyes, flashes of people ran

threw her mind until an image of a man popped into her head.

"Hmmm, 89 % chance...Not as high as Lemon's was, but it's still pretty high, anyway, the man is close to where Ryan's group

is, if we attack him we'll have a chance to finish them off again."

"Good work, Hikari." Taromecika complimented before looking back at the bowing pair in front of him.

"Lesson to Hikari's description of this man, and steal his soul. That'll be all."

*************************

"Master Keith?" Arisu asked, as her and her twin stood behind Keith in the shadows of the large room.

"Yes?"

"Why doesn't Taromecika send you to fight?"

"Yeah Lord Keith, your much stronger then those people."

Keith smiled creepily. " He knows those fools can't destroy Ryan, They are just being used to buy us some time, but when the time finally comes...I'll be hear to destroy them all."

***********************

The group had been walking for three days now, and thanks to some road bandits whom had stolen all their food and money

while they slept they were starving.

"....I'm lucky I just fed." Lemon commented, being the only one not hungry because Vampires did not need to eat like regular

people, but Lemon did just because he loved how things tasted not because he needed it to live, like they did.

"....What can't any of these tress grow fruit...." Mimi murmured, flapping her wings weakly.

"To bad I can't use my magic to make food."

" Yeah, that's to bad Carrie, Lima, very, very starved."

".......Hn."

" If I don't get something to eat soon, I just might end up doing self-cannibalism. " Genki moaned.

"....We'll be there in one more day."

".....we still won't have money to buy anything...." Squall reminded, rather sulky.

" We'll just steal what we need." Alex commented. "Now stop this senseless complaining, weaklings, and continue walking."

Groaning the group obeyed, none having enough energy to tell Alex not to boss them around.

Suddenly out of no where a man with silk black hair, glasses, and a white shirt and dark blue pants which seemed to hang off

his slim body dashed around them, taking measurements and snapping pictures.

"Perfect!! Perfect!!! You eight will do perfectly!!" The man exclaimed in high pitched, annoying voice.

" Perfect for what?" Ryan blinked.

"For my movie, of course! I've been looking for people to play the part of the characters in my movie, and finally, the perfect

people come!! Four strong looking men, and four beautiful girls, how perfect!!"

"Four girls?" The group blinked.

"Yeah, the fairy, child, elf, and that cute little vampire with the golden hair. You boys are lucky to have such gorgeous women in

your group."

"Oh, thank you!!" Lemon smiled, putting his hands on his face prettily.

"Oh god....." The rest of the group shook their heads.

"I'm sorry, but we don't have time for this..." Ryan began nicely.

"I'll pay!! I'll pay a high price 300, 000 gold, please!! I'll also give you free meals, the play should not take anymore then three

days, PLEASE!!! I'll also give you a ride to the entrance of Feecania if that is where your heading."

The group turned to each silently debating if they should accept the offer or not, in a matter of moments they came to their

decision.

"No."

They began to walk away, but was stopped as the man dashed in front of them.

"700,000 gold!!!"

The group stared at him expectantly.

"......each?" The man finished almost timidly.

The group look at each other and smiled,

**************************

" I wonder what part we are playing? I hope I get to play a good part." Carrie commented.

"With Lima's luck, Lima will be stuck playing an idiot, who says her name in replacement of 'I' don't you think a person like that

sounds stupid? Heh, heh, Lima think a person like that would had to have suffered brain damage or something."

The group looked Lima oddly, trying to figure out just what was going threw the elf's head.

"Ok everyone, I got your parts and costumes ready." The man, who had introduced himself as Mr. Hamstine, informed as he

walked into the room, handing the scripts out to the group.

"....I'm....I'm the bad guy?" Ryan frowned, blinking confused.

"Hey!! Cool!" Genki beamed. "I'm the main hero!! Heh-heh!!"

"....Hn!?"

"What is it Squall?" Mimi asked concerned.

"....I'm the hero's talkative side kick who gets bossed around?"

The group chuckled.

"....I'm...I play the part of a baby....a baby....prince?" Carrie turned a shade of green.

"....I play the part of a....snobby spoiled bratty bitch, who stalks the main hero on his quest?" Mimi blinked staring at the script

stunned.

" Lima plays...um...the narrator? ..."

".....I play the king....a very cowardly, weakling man...who is scared to death of the sorcerer. ...ME, PRETENDING TO BE A

WEAKLING!?!? INJUSTICE!!!"

Lemon chuckled.

"What's your part, Lemon?" Carrie asked as the boy stared at his script grinning.

" That's a secret, wait and see."

"Ok!" Mr. Hamstine exclaimed. "Get into costume and we'll start! It's been my life long ambition to make movies, and now that

it's finally happening I'm on fire!" the man clenched his fist which actually did spark with a flame, causing Genki to take a step

backward in surprise.

**********************

"Uh...Lena, shouldn't we attack?" Karl asked, confused as he and Lena sat in a tree watching.

"....I want to see this first, it sounds hilarious! " Lena commented, a ghost of a smile working on her face, as the boy rolled his

eyes shaking his head.

***********************

ACT ONE; The baby is stolen

Narrator(Aka Lima) :

"Long time ago, in a beautiful kingdom the queen gave birth to a baby boy, a prince that would someday be the heir to the

throne. However the queen died in child birth leaving the king to grieve, and their first born child Princess Fiona cared for the

child as if it had been her own and ruled by her fathers side, trying her best to stop her fathers grieving.

Alex dressed in a blue silk robe with white fur with black spots around the collar and sleeves sat on a throne, with his hands on

his face pretending to cry, but mumbling the word 'injustice' threw his really fake sobs, the crown on his head teetering of balance.

Lemon sat on the 'queens chair' dressed in a white gown, his hair tied back in a bun and a tiara resting on his head as he held

Carrie in his arms who was crammed into a large blue baby costume, sucking bitterly on a woo-woo.

" Tragedy struck again when one night the prince was kidnapped."

One of Mr. Hamstine 's supporting actors ran out onto the stage shouting

"The prince! The prince!" as she handed a paper to Alex, whom read it, making his eyes widen if fake shock.

I have kidnapped the prince,

You will never see him again

Singed; Sorcerer Damon

"Oh no." Alex tried to sound shocked but his voice remained monotone. " The evil sorcerer Damon as stolen our child,

whatever do we do?"

Lemon made his eyes water and put his hands to his face and began to cry loudly.

"Ohhhh." He wailed. " My poor little brother, what is that evil sorcerer planning to do to him!"

ACT TWO; The hero

" Right away an award was handed out to anyone who could defeat the evil sorcerer."

Hero's needed to slay evil sorcerer,

And save the prince, 999,0000 gold award

On the child's safe return. Must be age 15 +,

Experience is a plus, details given at interview.

" Almost right away a young man answered the plea, he appeared in the castle dressed in a dashing suit, his sword glimmering

at his side, hair as shiny and glowing like the sun."

Genki hopped on the stage trying to pull on the white boot of his costume that was at least 3 sizes to small, getting tangled in his

white cape he fell to the floor with a groan, but pushed himself back up, acting as if nothing happened.

"I'm hear to serve you, your highness, I shall save your child."

"Thank you, Hero Simon, I have full confidence that you can defeat this terrible man, please, take this servant boy with you, work

him as hard as you like."

Squall kneeled down in front of Genki.

"My name is Eric sir."

" I will be very grateful if you return my son, I will give you the money and my only daughter; princess Fiona's hand in marriage."

"If you can save my brother, I will gladly marry you, strong, brave warrior." Lemon said, putting his hands to his chest

dramatically.

Genki smiled, nodding his head. "It will be a piece of cake. Come along Squ---Eric! We haven't the time to just stand around!"

"Oh!" Squall whimpered as Genki bashed his head with the plastic sword as they exit stage right.

***********************

Squall grabbed Genki by the shirt from behind the curtains.

" Why ya hit me!?"

"....Eppp...It was in the script?"

*******************

ACT 3; Enter Sophie!

"The hero and servant boy walked threw the exit of the town and into a grassy field, suddenly the birds screams where

interrupted by a call.

Mimi comes running out stage left, the background and stage that was made look like a blue sky and tall grass. She dressed in

a very short red mini-skirt and black belly-button top, leather jacket and a chain wrapped around her waist, her hair done up into two pigtails.

"Simon, what the hell are you doing! Leaving without telling me!!" Mimi snarled, but blushed as she said her lines.

Genki blinked confused a few times before blushing and reciting his lines.

"....Um...Sophie, I'm sorry but I did not want you to come with me because you see it is very dangerous, and I don't want you

to get hurt."

"I DON'T CARE!!! I WANNA GO!! I WANNA!!! I WANNA!!!! I WANNA!!!" Mimi threw a temper-tantrum, swinging

her small fists into the air.

"....Sophie, get a hold of yourself."

" I'm coming, if you like it or not!"

"Now lesson...."

"NO YOU LISTEN ASSHOLE!!! I'M COMING!!!!! YOU THINK I'M GOING TO LET YOU GO FAR AWAY,

BATTLING EVIL THIS AND THAT AND LEAVE ME BEHIND TO WAIT!! WELL, YOU GOT ANOTHER THING

COMING, BABY! I'M NOT LETTING YOU OUT OF MY SIGHT JUST SO YOU CAN FLIRT WITH SOME OTHER

GIRLS, I'M KEEPING MY EYES ON YOU!! EVERY DAMN SECOND OF THIS FUCKING LITTLE JOURNEY I'LL

BE THEIR WATCHING, KEEPING YOUR ASS OUT OF TROUBLE, YOU GOT THAT!? YOUR STUCK WITH

THIS BITCH AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THAT'S TO DAMN BAD!!! OK, MY BOY-TOY, YOU GOT

THAT!!?!?!?"

Genki and Squall exchange looks that said 'If that's really Mimi, she's a damn good actress.'

"Ok, Sophie, you can come, but if you get in trouble I wont keep on running to your rescue, come if you will."

Mimi forced a light-headed giggle. " Your such a good boyfriend Simon..."

" Wait if she's your girlfriend, why did you agree to marry Princess Fiona?" Squall asked, immediately getting a whack over the head.

"Shut up!!" Genki hissed but the damage was already done, because the hero was knocked to the ground as Mimi began to

straggle into him.

"WHHHHAAAAATTTT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? SIMON YOU BIG MEANIE, YOU FUCKING JERK, YOU

WOMANIZING IDIOT!!!!! LUSTING AFTER FEMALES LIKE THAT, HOW COULD YOU!!?!?!?! I HATE YOU! I

HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!! I HATE YOU!!! I HATE YOU!!! I HATE YOU!!!!"

Genki turned blue in the face before his eyes became little X's.

"....eh.....Mimi? I think you killed him...."

The fairy-half's eyes widen, as she stared down at the limp Genki.

"Oh my...Genki!! I'm so sorry, I let my acting get the best of me!! Ohh, I really should have been more careful...Please forgive

me. Hear I'll cast my healing magic!"

************************

"....I guess someone as shy as Mimi has lots of anger to let go of...." Ryan frowned.

Carrie laughed weakly. " No kidding..."

************************

ACT 4: Why?

" Simon leaves Sophie behind, promising someday to return to her, and now he and his slave boy Eric are continuing their way

threw the grassy forest."

Squall sighs, shuffling the big travel back over onto his other shoulder.

"Quit that! Quit that sighing!" Genki exclaimed harshly without even turning back as he walked forward, the only thing he was

carrying was his sword.

"Simon...I don't see why you are so calm, I mean we're fighting against a black magic sorcerer, I mean, a sorcerer!"

"If your so afraid why did you volunteer to come with me?" Genki turned a sharp gaze on him as they both stopped walking.

Squall froze for a second before looking down at his feet. "I guess It's because I couldn't stand seeing Lemon so sad...."

"Not Lemon, The Princess!!" Genki hissed.

"...!!" Squall's face turned red and surprised as he realized his mistake.

"Well, Anyway." Genki continued, covering up for Squall's mistake. " Let's get going, Squall!"

"....The names Eric...."

The hyper boy gave him a bitter look, whacking him over the head with his toy sword.

"Don't talk back to your superiors, my little Eric."

Squall growled. " I told you to stop hitting me, and I know, that one was not in the script."

"So? Want to make something of it?"

"...Yeah."

Their fight was stopped by one word.

"CUT!!"

***************************

"....Can we attack yet!?" Karl hissed irritably.

"......hmm, no."

"Why the hell not?"

"...There is a good chance he does not have a goddess orb, so if we are to just steal his soul then we should make sure it's at

it's most powerful state."

"Huh?"

" When one's dream is accomplished is the time the soul feels the most powerful and is most alive, we'll wait until the movie is

finished and then we will strike."

"...Ok, But you better not just be saying this just to watch the rest of the play...." Karl frowned turning away from Lena. "I want

to finish this job off as quickly as possible.

***********************

"....Karl...." A small voice whispered from a grove a nearby bushes.

************************

Morning came fast and the group were already ready to continue the performance.

"Genki, you better not hit me again...." Squall warned.

"....Well, at least I'm not stuck showing up in the play again until the end." Alex commented.

"I'm stuck with a few more parts..." Mimi frowned.

"Luckily I'm only shown in two Acts...." Carrie sighed relived.

"Lima just have to read, good thing, Lima very camera shy."

"Hey, Where's Ryan and Lemon?" Genki blinked looking around for the two.

**************************

"Lemon...I can't walk in this!!" Ryan whimpered tripping to the floor, after getting his feet tangled in his costume again.

Lemon laughed, kneeling down next to him.

"Walking in robes is easy once you get the hang of it, just think of it as a long dress. Our robes are made almost the same

except the cape. But it shouldn't be much harder then mine, so get up, try again!"

Ryan whimpered. He just couldn't walk in these clothes! He was wearing a loose long dark blue robe, with a big pile go golden

magical symbols stitched into the cloth and a long black cape drooped over his shoulders. He had gotten Lemon to help him,

since the boy always wore this kind of outfit.

"It's soon stage time, Hear put on your wig!" Lemon exclaimed plopping a wig on top of his head.

The thing was a long pale purplish-white wig, the hair reaching just a little below his shoulders, a black tiara was done up in the

wing, making it seem more real, none of his blonde hair was visible and neither was his tale as it was covered by the robes, the

only demon feature left that was noticeable was his fangs and ears. He looked pretty cool, but kind of...well...

"I look like a girl..."

Lemon frowned. "Hey....what's wrong with looking like a girl?"

"Ehh? Um...Nothing...."

"Good, now let me help you with you makeup." The Dampier grinned evilly, approaching Ryan who backed up against the wall,

a look of pure horror plastered on his face.

**************************

"Ok!" Mr. Hamstine shouted walking into the room the group was waiting in. " Ryan, we shoot your sean today first!"

"He's not hear." Carrie answered, absent mindly, fiddling around with the woo-woo which was part of her costume.

"Where is he!? Shooting starts right away!"

"He's coming!" Lemon exclaimed cheerfully.

"Oh, my pretty princess, Say would you like to help me direct today?" Hamstine blushed.

"Oh? Heh-heh, sure!"

".....he's at it again...he always cons men out with his weak-onna looks." Alex muttered bitterly. "He use to it to steal."

"....Onna, means woman in you language right?" Squall questioned.

"...Yeah...Why are you asking?"

"In case the readers forgot."

"Oh, I see. Those weak readers need to have their memories refreshed quite often. But I think we should stop mentioning the

readers, it's running the mood of realism."

Ryan stepped into the room and everyone turned and looked at him in shock.

"What...?" The demon-half asked nervously, blinking at the group confused.

The group exchanged looks, and slowly Squall walked up to him, placing a hand on his shoulder, he swallowed before

speaking.

"...Ryan....As the one hear who had the orb of friendship, it takes a true friend to tell you this but..."

He paused, before continuing.

"You look like a Lemon-wannabe, in other words, you look exactly like a girl. And....eh....the lips stick and mascara does not

help...."

"....Lipstick....Mascara...." Ryan blinked then turned to Lemon, growling. "LEMON!!! DAMN YOU, HOW DARE YOU

PUT SUCH THINGS ON MY FACE!!!!"

Lemon giggled. "Hey, the powder hides the scar!"

"....Hmmm, that's true...."

The group shakes their heads sadly.

ACT 5; Damon

Ryan stood on the balcony prop, over looking a fake dark sky. Silently he put his arm out and a small little trained dragon flew

onto his finger, it's tiny green head looking up at him almost shyly, it's gray wings still flapping slightly.

"Ahh, Minco, Do you have any news for me?" Ryan spoke, making his voice low and raspy.

The tiny imp chirped nonsense for a few moments, even though he had no idea what the creature was saying he acted his part

like his did.

"So, he is really coming." He turned his head onto the side, hissing a short command to the camera. "Pssst close up!" before

putting a evil, secretive, yet pleasant smile on his face.

"I'll be waiting, Simon."

ACT 6: Assault amour

" Simon and Eric continued their journey none stop, not even for rest, until they were attacked by bandits, With Simon's skill and

power all the bandits were quickly killed."

"Hmmm, this looks good." Genki commented taking some armor off of one of the dead bodies, and began to but the brown

leathery armor over his white clothes.

"Hey, your not a hero, you're a regular highway bandit, aren't you?" Squall accused.

Genki gave him a small bash over the head. "Don't come up with such accusations."

Squall narrowed his eyes, while the hyper boy put his hands up in defense. "That whack was in the script."

Genki continued on with his lines, looking over the armor he had just finished putting on. "They call this, assault armor, I

wonder why..."

Suddenly a pack of Wolfos(very realistic robot ones) jumped out of the bushes at him.

SWING!!!

Squall just gaped in surprise while Genki blinked confused at all the knives which had popped out of the amour at the time of

attack and at the wolfos which were impaled by them.

"Oh, I get it..." Genki looked back down at the amour. " Assault armor."

ACT 7: Sophie in trouble

Mimi sighs as she traveled threw a dessert of sand, dressed back into the punk clothes which belonged to her character.

"That stupid bastard Simon, thinks I'm going to wait for him back home, like some kind of faithful dog, we'll he's got another thing

coming!!!"

" Sophie continues to travel long into the night, unknown by her, she was being watched but three pairs of glowing eyes."

A wind(made by a few fans) blew, causing Mimi to shiver.

"Burr, it's cold." She whimpered wrapping her arms around herself.

STEP,

STEP,

STEP.

Mimi gasped, turning around. "Whose there!?"

Suddenly a large figure began to approach her, and a blood curling scream escaped her lips.

"SIMON!! HELP ME!!!!"

ACT 8: Past revealed.

" After their battles, the two men were very tired and stopped to rest in an inn, however it was a sleepless night for questions

and the pressure of destiny rested on the men's shoulders.

"Simon...You never did answer my question on my why you accepted this mission, is the prince's life very important to you?"

" Saving the prince is only secondary, I have my own business to settle with Sorcerer Damon. "

"Oh? What? What kind of business could a man like you have with a man like him, did he destroy you village or kill someone

you cared about or something, because if it's revenge..."

"I do want to get revenge with him, I wont deny it, But I think you should know that he was once my best friend..."

"What!?"

" One day, the evil mage Destine attacked our village, destroying it, burning it into ashes, me and Damon were the only

survivors. Amazed with the mages powers he went with him and became his apprentice, betraying everyone in the village...and

me...I took the path of the sword to pursue him."

"I'm so sorry, it must be hard to destroy you own friend."

"Don't bother, it's his own fault. Eric if you wish you can stay hear, if you find it's to dangerous."

"No, I'm going. For Princess Fiona. But are you sure, you want to kill him? I could...if you wanted..."

"No. I and only I must be the one to destroy him..."

"Cut! That was great guys! Really convincing!!" Hamstine exclaimed excitedly. " We will shoot the final acts tomorrow, please

get your rest!"

*************************

Squall moaned softly, feeling a surge of passion flow threw his body but in his half-sleeping state did not know what it was,

slowly he opened his eyes, but gave a cry of surprise , setting up throwing the figure that had been setting on top of him off the

bed.

"Owww..." Lemon groaned, looking dizzy as he rubbed his head.

"What were you doing-oww..." Squall rubbed his neck, feeling two little teeth marks and a little trickle of blood.

"Sorry...I got a little hungry, and I needed a small, bedtime snack." Lemon apologized innocently.

"Ask first... But why feed off me? I know enough about vampires to know that you don't have to drink the blood of a person

that loves you, you only have to do that in your main meals, not your snacks."

"...Well..." Lemon blushed slightly. "I...I find it easier to drink blood off of someone I care about..."

"....?"

"It's nothing...but...."

"What?"

"I keep on having nightmares about how I acted when I worked for Taromecika...can I sleep in the bed with you....please?"

"Ehhh, I'd feel a bit weird sleeping in the same bed with a thirteen year old..."

"Really? Hmmm, I can fix that." Lemon shut his eyes and in a flash, he transformed. Squall gasped as he stared at a seventeen

year old Lemon. He did not look that much different except he was taller, more stronger looking and his face showed a bit more

maturity. He was a very handsome young man, and not the child version he was so use to.

"Ah...ah...ah...."

Lemon smiled. " At lost for words, aw, I'm that cute? Heh-heh!"

The Dampier jumped into the bed, snuggling up to him, happily, pinning him down onto the bed.

"Lemon..."

"Can I just eat a little bit more, please? It wont hurt, actually, it feels kind of good, dreamy like if you drank a little to much scotch. "

"Fine...just don't kill me by accident."

"Thanks."

Squall hissed slightly pained as Lemon sank his teeth back into the holes he had already done in his neck, and began to tenderly

suck the blood from his body. No matter how much he fought against it the man-beast could not help but moan as the feeling of

passion filled him again.

The same affects seemed to be happening to Lemon as the boy began kissing his neck as he drank, lost in a frenzy of bloodlust

and passion, he continued to drink and kiss. Squall titled his head upward, kissing Lemon's lips, tasting his own blood on them,

it tasted good, reminding him of the time he use to hunt his prey. Lemon noticed this and taking his claw, he cut his own arm,

allowing Squall to taste of his blood. Neither of them fully realized what was happening, until the kisses had slowed down and

both gasped for breath, shivering even though they weren't cold.

*****************************

Ryan laid staring at the ceiling, his mind racing with memories.

"Ruto...Where are you now, are you cold? Are you afraid and lonely? I...I wish you were hear Ruto, I... I wish you could hear

me..."

"Ryan..."

The demon-half gasped, eyes widening.

"Ruto?"

A foggy ghost of a figure appeared in front of him, it was Ruto, she put a hand on his cheek as a tear escaped his eye.

"Ryan, as long as you remember me, I will always be hear, I will never die as long as I exist in your heart, and the heart of

others."

"Ruto...I'm trying my best to save you, I wont let Saiyoua win, or Taromecika."

" But I am Saiyoua and Saiyoua is me...we are one and the same, you can't kill her without killing me, and Key is me and her

also, there is only one part of the three of us, that is not us, And with that part, I will be remembered forever...we will be

remembered forever."

" Ruto, what are you talking about?"

Smiling the girl leaned forward, giving him a kiss on the cheek. " When you want to talk to me again just focus on my sprit, and

our bond, and I'll always hear you, sometimes I wont be able to answer you, but I will always hear you..."

****************************

Ryan opened his eyes, and saw that his room was empty.

"Ruto!!" He received no answer, and slowly closing his eyes to try and stop the tears he whispered "....Please come back....."

****************************

Squall yawned opening his eyes, instantly he felt flesh against his and looked down to see the still adult Lemon snuggled up to

him, dressed only in a pair of boxers, using his chest for a pillow, looking down he noticed that he was only wearing his jeans

and that his shirt and jacket had been discarded onto the floor along with Lemons robes.

Instantly Squall could feel his face heat up, he did not remember exactly what happened last night but he had this feeling he did

not want to know. But slowly images popped back into his mind, it seems like the blood-lust had made them both a little crazy.

Squall guessed that if he had awoken without his pants then he would have had an heart attack. Sure they both had been naked

when he allowed Lemon to feed off his life force in order to save the boys life, but making love was an entirely different

thing...besides, he promised Ganderdof he never would take another mate...but still, he felt so strange around Lemon.

Lemon choose the moment to wake and instantly jumped out of the bed.

"Eppp! I'm sorry, I didn't mean for things to get so out of control last night, don't worry noting to serious happened, just some

'above the belt playing' We were a little drunk on blood." The boy then grinned. "But you have to admit, it was fun."

Squall looked at the boy amazed as he began to get dressed back in his robes, and was about to head out the door, turning

around he laughed.

"Opps! Forgot!" In a flash Lemon was back in his 13 year old form again, smiling cutely he spoke.

"See ya later, can't wait for the last sean of the play!!"

"Last sean?" Squall blinked after Lemon left and got out the script flipping towards the last act, reading it his eyes filling with

horror.

**********************************

ACT 9; Garden of Medusa; last battle before Sorcerer Damon

" The hero Simon and Eric continued forward, battling evil as they went along. Now they can see the dark castle in the distance, all

they had left to do, before reaching it was to go threw the Garden, but this was no ordinary garden, it was a cursed garden..."

" Hey! Isn't this the garden of Medusa?" Squall exclaimed as the reached the entrance.

Genki bent don't reading a colorful sign next to the entrance, that read ' Cursed Garden of Medusa.'

"Yup, Hey Eric did you ever hear the story of Medusa?"

"N...No, Sir."

" They say there was once this beautiful and kind girl who lived in a village not so far from hear. Everyone liked her except for

this one girl who was jealous of her beauty, this girl dabbled in witch craft so she made this potion and slipped it to the beautiful

girl. Once she drank it she began to transform and became a horribly ugly creature, crazy with grief she locked herself in this

garden and using her evil eye, turns every beautiful young girl into stone. A legend says that if she was to turn 10,000 beautiful

girls to stone she would turn back to normal."

" Creepy...." Squall whimpered.

Genki bashed him over the head. " Don't get chicken with me now! Come on let's go!"

"They reached the heart of the weedy garden in little time, but stopped with gasp at the clearing, all around them were stone

statues of beautiful young girls. One of them standing in a fountain, that statue seemed very familiar."

"Sophie!"

Mimi gulped trying her best not to move, Hamstine had painted her gray so she would look stone but the smell of the paint was

making her dizzy. All the rest of the girls were just props.

" Oh Simon, look out!" Squall exclaimed in terror.

Genki turned to face Medusa coming out of the bushes, she was as twisted and ugly as the stories said (Medusa was just

Hamstine in a dress with makeup on)

" Turn Sophie back right now, or else I'll kill you!" Simon threatened removing his sword from his side.

Squall gasped as Medusa opened her evil eye staring directly into Genki's eyes, but for some reason the boy did not turn to

stone, holding his sword up Medusa screamed and turned into a stone statue herself.

" With the defeat of Medusa all of the girls turned back to normal and left the garden except for Sophie who stayed behind with

Simon and Eric."

" Oh Simon! Thanks for saving me...But you know this would not have happened to me if you had taken me with you in the first

place!! That's it, I'm coming with you from now on!!!!"

"Ok, if that is what you really wish Sophie."

"Hey." Squall began. " I'm confused, when she gave you the evil eye, why didn't you turn to stone?"

Genki winked. "I closed my eyes."

ACT 10; End Of Sorcerer Damon

" Simon, Eric and Sophie finally reach the castle, and are now running up the stairs towards the tower, slashing at evil monsters as

they go by until they reached the throne room."

Ryan turned towards them, smiling.

"Simon, I knew they would send you, I'm so happy to see you my old friend."

"Damon, give me back the prince!"

"I'm sorry, but I need him for a spell."

" A spell?" Eric questioned.

" We don't care about you god damn spells, just give us the baby, Dammit!!" Mimi cursed, sounding pissed off.

" Sorry, my lady, but I need him for a spell to be able to control time, a prince born on the night of the full moon must be

sacrificed on the night of the new moon, Tonight is the night!"

"NEVER!!" Squall exclaimed dashing forward towards Ryan, his toy sword drawn.

"Eric stop!" Genki exclaimed but Squall didn't listen and was thrown back by a magical force field(it was a fake made by the computer) and fell to the floor, not strong enough to stand back up.

" No one will stand in my way!" Ryan exclaimed, pretending to caste a magical spell, but the magic was all made with computer

graphics. Genki and Mimi screamed as they pretend the 'attack' hit them and both fell to the floor, groaning.

"I will have to kill you, but my friend Simon, I will let you live, it will grieve me to much to see my old friend die. Put down your

sword and join me, we can rule the world together."

Mimi and Squall pretended to be shock when Genki put down his sword and began to walk towards Ryan.

"...Simon." Squall whispered.

"SIMON!!! YOU GOD DAMN TRAITOR!!!!"

Genki now stood in front of Ryan who smiled warmly.

"Simon, you finally came, my friend."

The two boys hug.

SWING

Ryan left the sean, but using computer graphs, it was made look like *Damon* had turned to sand and crumpled away to dust,

which fell threw Genki's arms which were still in mid hug. How Damon was killed? Will let's just remind you of the knives that

are in Genki's assault armor.

" Eric, get the baby! Hurry the castles turning to dust!!"

" They flea the castle with the baby, leaving behind only the pile of dust that was once the feared Sorcerer Damon. "

ACT 11: Goodbye Koh, and Sophie!

"Are you sure you two aren't coming back to the castle?" Squall asked Genki and Mimi who stood side by side. Carrie was in

Squall's arm, twitching around very uncomfortably because of the baby outfit.

"I'm sure, I'm heading up north, I have few more old friends I have to kill up there."

"And I'm coming with him, just because I have nothing else to do. And because It's my character to fallow Simon where ever he

goes for no apparent reason."

" Before I go, here's my bank account number where the king can deposit my reward."

Squall took the paper confused, and watched as Genki and Mimi left.

"Goodbye, Eric! Take care, and if Damon ever returns... Find someone else to fight him!"

"And so the great hero and his one true love leave the village in search of new adventures."

ACT 12: Epilogue

" The young hero Eric was knelt in front of the king after his long journey, The king and Princess Fiona were pleased to see the young prince returned to them safely."

" We thank you for helping save the prince, it's to bad that Simon could not return, but a promise is a promise, you will wed

Princess Fiona." Alex spoke, to a blushing and angry looking Squall. Lemon grinned sweetly.

" within a day, Eric and Princess Sophie married, and lived happily ever after."

' Happily ever after, my ass!' Squall thought to himself as he and Lemon walked arm and arm down the fake wedding chapel,

being forced to finally end this movie with a kiss.

The End

"Bravo! Bravo! Beautiful!! This will be one of the best movies ever!" Hamstine exclaimed.

"I hope he's kidding..." Carrie mumbled under her breath.

************************

"Ok! We attack now!" Lena exclaimed jumping off of the tree.

"About time!" Karl frowned before leaping after her.

***********************************

Most of the group were talking quietly to each other when suddenly Alex whipped around, aiming his gun he took a shoot at

something causing everyone to look behind themselves startled.

Karl groaned, dropping to the ground holding onto his arm while Lena gracefully landed on her feet.

"Look like it's the soul thieves." Ryan growled, while he and his group members got ready to attack.

" You look all fired up, very well then! This monster will be perfect to get that fire out! ICENA, I SUMMON YOU!!!"

The group were forced to shield their eyes as a bright light filled the area as the monster Icena came out of the ground. The

monster had a body of a beautiful and well shaped girl, but she was faceless except for two sliver orbs that took that place of

her eyes, he long hair swirled around her, making her seem more like a princess then an enemy. But then again, what took away

from her beauty was the fact she was made out of nothing but ice!

Ryan pulled out his T.P.R.A. the screen flashed almost immediate with information.

ICENA

Beautiful women that are made out of ice/crystal. One touch from a Icena and they can turn you into ice. Icena's are mostly

peaceful and hate fighting, but if you are being attacked by one it is helpful to know that fire magic will not work. They may be

made of ice, but they must be weekend first before they melt. A way to weaken them is to keep on attacking them until they

crack.

Please note; Icena's were wiped out around 100 years ago, if you actually find an Icena please report it right away!

Karl laughed. " Icena I'll leave this to you, bye for now! Oh and Icena, kill them off and I will consider freeing you, got that?"

"Coward!" Ryan exclaimed driving after him but the other boy had disappeared seconds before Ryan could get his hands

around him.

"....." Icena dashed forward, swinging a fist in Mimi's direction. The fairy-half tried to back away in time but the first hit her

causing her to turn into ice, her face frozen in an expression of fear.

"MIMI!!!!" Genki cried, throwing himself forward, his fist ready to strike.

****************************

Lena watched in the corner of her eye as Icena kneed Genki in the stomach, causing him to yelp falling to the ground as he to

turned to ice. Her eyes scanned the area finding Mr. Hamstine huddled in a corner she smirked, taking opportunity of the confusion to strike.

"Your soul is mine!" Lena exclaimed, extending her arm forward blasting the soul crystal from his chest.

****************************

"NO!!!" Ryan exclaimed as he watched Lena run off with the soul crystal in her hands, but he knew he could not go after her

because he had to fight Icena, and right now it was a loosening battle. Mimi, Genki, Alex and Carrie had already been turned to

ice.

"Lima....Lima scared!" The elf whimpered, "Go away!!"

At the sound of the elf's cry an violent earthquake erupted throwing everyone off balance, causing Icena to fall to the ground,

because of her small and weak body she stayed still for a moment and had a hard time getting up. A fully wolf transformed

Squall leapt at her, his nails raking across the girls chest. It did not make a crack but you could see scratch marks on her

crystal/ice skin. Turning her empty gaze toward the wolf she angrily gripped his head, slowly turning Squall to ice.

"OH SQUALL!!!" Both Lemon and Lima exclaimed at the same time.

" You'll pay!" Lemon growled, dashing forward his scythe appearing in his hand, striking the Icena in the chest, she was

beginning to crack, a few more blows would do it.

"......" The Icena grabbed the end of Lemon Scythe, freezing it. Lemon, who's hand had became frozen to the handle was

frozen along with his weapon, his face frozen in a surprised expression.

Lima growled, rising her hands into the air. "Lima will make you pay! TYPHOON ATTACK TIMES 50!!!!!!!!"

Ryan gasped at the huge water twisters that slammed into Icena causing the ice doll to fall to the ground, her body slightly

melting from the water. Rising her hand into the air she used her ice magic, causing part of the water to turn into a huge ice

spear that flew towards Lima who screamed as it impaled her side, tumbling to the ground she stayed their laying still, a pool of

blooding forming underneath her.

Ryan growled, gripping his sword as Icena turned towards him.

"I'm the only one left...and I'm not about to let evil creatures like you win!!"

"......Evil?" Icena whispered, but Ryan did not hear her.

" FIRE WAVE!!!" Fire magic blasted forth from Ryan's sword, the ice woman however dodged it and it crashed into the

theater causing it to start to burn, flames dancing all around them.

"I'll save my friends, no matter what it takes, I don't care if I turn into ice at the process."

".......I'm evil?"

Ryan dashed forward, his sword drawn. It seemed to happen in slow motion, as his sword impaled Icena's weakened 'flesh' a

mute scream of agony coming out of the Icena mouth.

"This is the end of you! Change my friends back, you evil monster!"

"....Evil....Evil...No!!!"

Ryan screamed as he felt himself being threw to the ground with a powerful slap. Starting at his feet he

could feel his body begin to get cold and he stared at Icena who stared down at his slowing freezing form.

The monsters eyes wandered over the frozen group, looking towards the ground she mumbled.

"I really did become evil, didn't I...?"

Pushing himself upward her watched as Icena walked towards the flames Ryan's sword magic had made, the fire licking her skin as she stepped with in the

burning lotus flower.

"What?" He gasped, not understanding what was happening.

Icena turned toward him, her body almost completely melted.

"I'm truly evil...I've become the thing that I hated...the thing that destroyed my family, and enslaved me..."

Ryan reached out his hand in protest. "Stop!"

All what Icena did though was look over in his direction, a single crystal tear sliding down her cheek, as the flames engulfed her.

***************************

Lena was running threw the woods, the soul crystal held tight in her fist. She was trying to get away from Ryan's group, but at

the same time stay close enough to stay close enough to him to capture his and his friends souls on the moment of their deaths.

"Ow!" Lena suddenly exclaimed as a rock hit her in the head, causing her to fall to the ground, dropping the crystal.

"Who threw that!" She growled but then looked up surprised as a silhouette stood in front of her, picking the crystal up in it's

hands.

"Wha---? Hey, give that back! METRO SHO---!!"

"Bow of faith!"

" Destiny's embrace!!"

A magical blast of an Arrow, and of two large beams crashed into Lena before she could complete her attack.

"....I'll....win...next...t...time!"

The three people watched as the leader of the great L's vanished. Amy and Kim walk toward the silhouette, who handed the

crystal to them.

" Who are you?" Amy asked.

"....Karl........Karl......."

Amy and Kim exchanged confused looks as the figure rocked it's self back and forth as it spoke.

"Um....You ok...?"

"Karl....Karl.....Must.....stop....Karl....must.....must.....Kar l....Karl...."

" Amy, this person's crazy, let's get this crystal back to it's owner."

"You probably right." The cheer-leader sighed, following Kim as they left the crazy figure behind.

*************************

"HEAL!!" Mimi tried again, over Mr. Hamstine's lifeless form, but like the other times it didn't work. The group returned back

to normal after Icena died, and right away Mimi healed Lima and then tried with all her effort to heal Hamstine, but they knew it

was pointless, without his soul, the body couldn't live.

"It's no use...I'm not strong enough." Mimi sighed, tuning away from the body almost in shame.

"It's nothing to do with how strong you are, you could be the strongest being in the universe and still he would stay like this...a

body needs a soul to live." Genki comforted.

"....I can't believe we let Lena get away with it. Dammit!" Ryan cursed, punching his hand against his knee in anger.

"You let her get away, so did we, but at least we got the crystal back." Kim spoke, startling the group as her and Amy

suddenly appeared on the sean.

" You should be more careful, if your going to continue this journey then at least do it right."

The group watched silently as the crystal floated from Kim's hands and back into Hamstine's body. The two girls turned to

walk away, but stopped as Ryan called out their names.

"Are you guys still after the soul crystals?"

"Yes. I told you, we will stop at nothing to get our hands on the goddess stone. Even if we must end innocent lives."

"But..." Squall began, stepping forward. "I saw you return the soul crystals to Lemon and I, and now to Hamstine."

"We don't want them if they aren't a goddess stone fragment. We would like as less people to die as possible, only those with a

piece of the goddess stone shall be sacrificed!" Amy exclaimed, her voice cold and unfeeling.

" We should try and stop any lives from being lost! All life is important." Mimi argued.

Kim and Amy turned away from the group, walking away into the forest, while Kim spoke back to them as her and Amy's

figures disappeared into the darkness.

" The death of four will stop the death of millions. We care about the lives of everyone, not the lives of a few individuals, an single individuals life is not worth anything in the big picture."

**********************

"... That's not true..." Mimi whispered softly. " Everyone's life is important..."

" Individuals are what makes up the big picture.... Each and everyone of those people they and we are trying to protect is an

individual, how is it some individual's are more important to save then others?" Carrie agreed.

'...All life is important....Monsters, and evil lives are important too, I suppose.....'

Ryan looked down from where he leaned on a burnt piece of wood, the fire was put out and his eyes scanned over the ashes,

there was no trace of Icena, she probably melted. He had no idea why she decided to kill herself in the end, he guessed that

even Taromecika's monsters had hearts. His eyes caught on to something that shimmered on the ground, kneeling down he

picked it up and saw that he was holding a single crystal tear in the palm of his hand.

"What's that?" Lima blinked, gazing down at it.

"All that remains of Icena, a single crystal and tear.... Mimi, Carrie, your right, all life is important, but we can't protect

everyone, Icena was a monster but her life still had a meaning...I think I understand Amy and Kim now, but still, I believe there

has to be another way to save the world without anyone having to die."

*********************

Saiyoua looked up at the moon, the light casting down on her pale skin.

" ...I wonder just how much more games we have to play, before we get handed the right cards."

"If This is a Game." Keith replied as he appeared by her side. "Then it's a game that uses people's lives as the pawns."

"And pawns are very insignificant."
