Dawn: "Regardless of the age. He can use Rostical. That already makes him far superior to even those of mature age."
Rachael: "Rostical." *She whispered to herself, as if she was thinking.*
Dawn: "Being able to use Rostical is a gift and it's very rare for people to be able to use it."
Rachael: "People keep saying it's rare to use Rostical, but I see it almost daily."
Dawn: "Hmh. You have no idea." *She spoke with growing anger and formed a fist by curling each finger inwards, causing Rachael to look confused.* "Those that are blessed with the correct amount of Astragons and Neurons are able to use Rostical, the ability to mix them both usually comes naturally during puberty."
Rachael: "So you're saying, that even though he's nine, the fact he's able to use Rostical is special?"
Dawn: *She nodded her head.* "I'm very envious. Despite this, he's a smart child and is always willing to prove himself."
--
*Karol wandered through the city and avoided the passing citizens, as the lively place was cluttered with people.*
Dawn: "Those people that strive to prove themselves will always get stronger. In theory, it's the adults that should be afraid of Karol."
Rachael: "Adults? Don't be foolish. One punch in the wrong area could kill him."
*Karol skipped past dozens of people and avoided several umbrellas, as women wearing old-fashioned garments swung them around like a purse.*
Dawn: "Be it, incantations, singing, dancing, summoning, any of those that are able to use Rostical or Remenistal that some people like to say, can definitely hold their own."
Rachael: *She sighed in confusion.* "I don't understand."
*Karol felt his throat and continued to skip towards two large set of stairs, one which travelled up and the other down the city.*
Dawn: "You're over thinking. Research believes, fearing over someone that can use Rostical is foolish. Understandable but foolish."
Rachael: "You think?"
Dawn: *She shook her head.* "Both, research and I believe this to be true."
Rachael: "Hehe, okay." *She spoke with a sigh of relief.*
Dawn: "So easily convinced?"
Rachael: "I trust what you and research have to say."
Dawn: *She blushed and smiled.* "Hmh."
*Karol skipped up to the entrance to the city and watched it warp in front of him, before stepping through it.*
----------
*Nathan sat on the edge of the castle's roof and looked across, observing a thin black line on the horizon of the blue sky and the city's edges.*
Nathan: "Hmm?" *He leant back and placed his hands on the stone flooring behind him, watching Lezard unintentionally slam open the door, giving him access to the rooftop.*
Lezard: "Six levels." *He spoke with a sarcastic tired-like pant.*
Nathan: "What are you doing here?"
Lezard: "Actually, what are you doing here, my delightful silly sausage?"
Nathan: "This is where I go to think."
Lezard: "Ooo, more character development?"
Nathan: "You're so strange, bro."
Lezard: *He giggled at Nathan.* "As Lezard hobbled onto the roof, he instantly noticed delicious life-sized pillars of Scoldrants along the castle-" *He adjusted his cone-shaped hat.*
Nathan: "They are Scoldrants of each element."
Lezard: *He observed the pillars, intrigued.* "Fancy that, little monster. I never noticed the pillars up here."
Nathan: "I know.. You're still doing that?"
Lezard: "There were several stone sheds in each corner of the roof."
Nathan: "What are you doing?"
Lezard: "Well, unless if you read the other series, we never knew what the roof looks like."
Nathan: *He looked up, as a strong gust of wind blew his hair.* "Pretty crazy how the sky is fake."
Lezard: "Little monster?" *He hobbled up to Nathan and sat down, watching his cone-shaped hat flap in the breeze.* "It's not fake."
Nathan: "I know, I know. It alters the Astragons, but it could be night by now."
Lezard: "I think it's the afternoon."
Nathan: "It's hard to keep up with what day it is."
Lezard: *He nodded his head in agreement.* "All these Spacial Funnels and a city that has altered daytime, I can see how confusing it could be."
Nathan: *He sighed.* "I lost my sword. I better go get a new one."
Lezard: *He noticed Nathan's elbows shake.* "Have you rested?"
Nathan: "I just did."
Lezard: "Don't be a silly sausage." *He placed his hands near Nathan's elbow, causing a white light to glow in his arm.* (Oh? He has many bruises-)
Nathan: "I'm okay." *He spoke with an exhausted smirk.*
Lezard: "You're tired, notorious Nathan."
Nathan: "Ha ha, it's okay."
Lezard: *He lowered his arms and looked slightly annoyed.* "You're very aggressive."
Nathan: "What do you mean?"
Lezard: "Well, why is it always a struggle for me to heal you?"
Nathan: "I have to be strong."
Lezard: "Why?"
Nathan: "Ha ha." *He shook his head with a smile.*
Lezard: "And what exactly is so funny, Nathy-poo?"
Nathan: "That I'd be talking about this to you."
Lezard: "Me? Why is that a bad thing?"
Nathan: "It's not-"
Lezard: "Wait a cupcake moment, did you call me bro?" *He squealed the word bro while placing his hands on his chest.*
Nathan: *He looked down, watching the lively city.* "I have to be strong, because I wasn't once."
Lezard: *He thought to himself in a serious-like manner.* (He's serious.)
Nathan: "Bell-.." *He mumbled to himself, causing Lezard to lean closer.*
Lezard: "Who?"
Nathan: *He shook his head.* "My friend was a Fore Hunter."
Lezard: "Fore Hunter." *He looked up in thought.*
Nathan: *He smiled in a half saddened manner.* "It's an old term. You probably wouldn't-"
Lezard: "Fore Hunter, they are tribal-like gangs that seek sacred treasures. Despite your dislike for titles, they coincidentally hate Scoldrant Users."
Nathan: "You-?" *He looked at Lezard with widening eyes in shock.* "Just how old are you?"
Lezard: "Bwarharh, don't ever ask a girl that." *He waved his hand in a sarcastic, feminine-like manner.*
Nathan: "Ha ha. But how do you know about them?"
Lezard: "Father and mother monster encountered all sorts of people. It was one of my favourite past times, listening to their stories when they got back from their travels."
Nathan: "Interesting."
Lezard: "Oh, don't flatter poor old Lezard."
Nathan: "Nah, I'm serious." *He spoke with a genuine smile.*
Lezard: "The Fore Hunters have been said to be extinct." *He tilted his head in thought.* "Maybe not the best word to use, but-"
Nathan: "I know what you mean."
Lezard: "So your friend, what about him."
Nathan: "She was very special to me."
Lezard: "She? Special? Was father and mother monster wrong about the two tribes?"
Nathan: *He shook his head.* "No. They were right. We weren't allowed to be seen together."
Lezard: "Forbidden love?" *He gasped in a sarcastic, excited-like manner.*
Nathan: "We met very unexpectedly and became really close."
Lezard: "Yes."
Nathan: "Bell, Isabella had a certain follower."
Lezard: "And?"
Nathan: "We had a fight, and even though he was a Rostical User, I won."
Lezard: (Nathan's friend was a Rostical User. Does that have something to do with his hatred for Rostical?)
Nathan: "I was weak." *He spoke in recollection, as if he was replaying the emotional memories.*
Lezard: "Lezard is confused, you said you won your battle?"
Nathan: "A few days later, if not earlier, he-" *He paused and shook his head.*
Lezard: "You don't need to tell me if you don't want to."
Nathan: "Thanks."
Lezard: (Oh, he's not going to tell me?) *He thought to himself in disappointment.*
Nathan: "But, if I wasn't weak, I would have let her live.. I hate titles and I hate Rostical Users."
Lezard: "There's one thing that has changed, my delightful sausage."
Nathan: "What?"
Lezard: "You have us now." *He spoke with a smile, causing Nathan to shake his head with a smile.*
Nathan: "That, is, a, fact." *He nodded his head in thought.* "Maybe I should get some rest. I've already enrolled for Battling Oxident."
Lezard: "Ooo, is Battling Oxident coming up?"
Nathan: "Yeah." *He stood up and looked at Lezard.* "I appreciate the talk."
Lezard: "You're welckies." *He giggled in excitement.* "I really like the foods that are only presented during Battling Oxident."
Nathan: "Those sausages?"
Lezard: "Yum yums!"
Nathan: "See you later, bro." *He mumbled in his deep voice and started to walk across the roof, towards a small thin door, designed as if it's not meant to be used often.*
Lezard: *He watched Nathan open and close the thin stone door behind him.* "He was very vague in his story, but he had so much emotion when he was telling me. Who is Isabella? Who or what was her follower? Why did he say he was weak when he won the battle? And.. Where is she now?"
--
Nathan: *He dragged his feet down the corridor.* (Bell.. I miss you.)
----------
*Luna and Destiny bathed in a small secluded lake, hidden by a thick cloud of mist-like steam.*
Luna: *She dunked her hair in the water and wrung it out with both her hands.* "Man, didn't notice how rank I was, aye."
Destiny: (Neither did I-) *She swam on her back around Luna.*
Luna: "Ain't kitties meant to hate the water?"
Destiny: "Yeup."
Luna: *Images of Gabriel flashed in her mind, causing her to look down to the rippled water around her.* "That was so scary."
Destiny: (What was?)
Luna: (That creature.)
Destiny: (I don't want to talk about it.)
Luna: "I'm sorry."
Destiny: "Yeup?"
Luna: "I don't know how my brain works, aye. But.. When I'm in those mind frames, you're just meant to listen. I wasn't right for yelling at you either."
Destiny: (She's talking about before the creature-)
Luna: "I think-.." *She paused, as if she was trying to find the words to express herself.*
Destiny: (I didn't know.) *She floated upwards, looking at Luna.*
Luna: "I think I was taking you for granted.. Not being able to see.. It was scary, aye. It was like I was looking into the darkness of my heart."
Destiny: (I also didn't know what abilities I got from you.)
Luna: "You mentioned somethin' about not thinkin'?"
Destiny: (Repelling my Astragons to the ground was much harder than normal.) *She floated back down, bathing in the water in front of Luna.*
Luna: "Your flying ability. Is that why you had such a hard time trying to flee from that demon fuck?"
Destiny: "Yeup." *She meowed in agreement.*
Luna: "At least you could still fly 'n' shit, aye."
Destiny: (I.. Couldn't think for myself. I couldn't think rationally.)
Luna: "Like you were all instinct?"
Destiny: "Yeup!" *She bobbed up in agreement, causing water to splash onto Luna.*
Luna: "Aha, freak." *She giggled.*
Destiny: "Huesst." *She hissed in disagreement, swimming towards Luna.*
Luna: "There's somethin' I gotta tell ya-" *She paused and gently held Destiny with both hands, readying herself.*
Destiny: (What's wrong? The negative feelings I feel from you are slowly going away. They are actually positive-)
Luna: "I love you, kitty."
Destiny: "Yeu?" *She half meowed in shock.*
Luna: "Yeu? The fuck? I just opened my heart and that's all you-"
Destiny: *She closed her eyes and floated into Luna's chest.* (I love you, too!)
Luna: *She gasped with widening eyes and smiled.* "You ain't just sayin' that?"
Destiny: (No!)
Luna: (You fuck!) *She tightly closed her eyes and hugged Destiny in happiness, as tears of Joy ran down her cheeks.*
*The transparent blue strings which connected Destiny and Luna together suddenly materialised and brightened.*
Luna: *She opened her eyes and stared at the blue strings through Destiny's perspective.* "Wat are-?"
Destiny: (Our Soul Link?)
Luna: *She watched the strings change into a divine golden colour, causing her to gasp.* "Shit, have we done somethin' wrong?"
*Destiny and Luna separated by an unknown force and the strings straightened, rippling a small wave around them.*
Luna: "Gah!-" *She leant back and inhaled in pain, as her hair started to lose its colour by the roots.*
Destiny: (What's happening?!) *Her fur flapped in circles and she floated up off the water.*
Luna: "Gah-" *She continued to gasp for air and an expanding purple glyph spiralled behind her.*
Destiny: "Yeu!" *She meowed with an echo and suddenly turned into silver liquid.*
Luna: *She watched the silver liquid spiral towards her.* "Wat the fucking fuck is goin' on-?!"
Destiny: (My body, it hurts!-)
Luna: "Destiny!" *She screamed and leant forward, as a purple light flashed behind her.*
*Luna took short quick breaths and slowly opened her eyes, leaning up.*
Luna: *She glanced to each side, listening to only the sounds of the water splashing around her.* "Dest-.. Destiny?"
