Yeah, so I decided to completely re-post my fanfic. Here's the first Chapter, credit to Olympia for the first paragraph.
Chapter 1 - " Transformation"
"Lloyd...Is that you?" Colette asked a bit unsure as she heard some footsteps from outside. She laid down in her tent, but she wondered who was outside so she stepped out of the tent. It was full moon, and everything had a beautiful silver colour. The thousands of leaves at the trees, the little twigs at the ground: everything. She looked around, and saw Lloyd, who was walking away from the camp. "Hey Lloyd!!" She said happy and ran up to him "...Colette?" He stopped and looked behind him, seeing Colette running at him. "Where are you going?" She asked friendly "..." Lloyd didn't answer at first "Colette, this...Go back!" "Uh?" Colette said surprised and her eyes widened a bit "What do you mean?" She asked curious "...I said go..." Lloyd started walking away again, his brown hair covered his eyes. "B-but..." She stuttered "GO!" Lloyd yelled at her as he turned around, it was like he created a roar and a shout at the same time. "..." Colette looked down "S-sorry..." She said softly. Lloyd made an annoyed growl, " It’s not like him to act like this," Colette thought to herself and she looked at him. Lloyd stood there for a while, and Colettestood there as well. "...Gh....hr...!" Lloyd fell at his knees suddenly when making weird grow like sounds, Colette rushed quickly at him. "Lloyd! Lloyd! Are you okay?" She asked worried as she grabbed his arm in order to help him up. Lloyd refused her help and pulled his arm back. "Hrr...Go...Now...before it's too late..." He muttered softly and Colette seemed afraid now. "Too late? What's too late?" She asked, but the only reply she got was a wolf like howl. Lloyd stood up, facing her with his back. Colette noticed a long hairy tail..Lloyd turned around, Lloyd was not longer Lloyd. Ripping his gloves apart, his hands made place for big furry claws with black nails, as well as his feet. His head was like a wolves head, white shining teeth, and red glowing eyes. Colette gasped and took some steps back. "Too late..." he growled, it hardly sounded human, and he jumped at Colette...
" Not so fast!" a voice rang out from the shadows. A dark figure leaped out from the forest, and blocked Lloyd's attack. " You will not harm her," the voice growled. Lloyd, eyes glowing red, turned and ran into the forest. " Thank you" breathed Colette, as she breathed a sigh of relief. " Don't worry about it." he said, as he helped Colette up. He wore a white long sleeve, a blue shirt on top that extended down to his lower body, white pants, and a katana slung on his back. " That was so weird. I've never seen Lloyd like that before." said Colette, looking nervous. " It's alright. He won't come for a while, but he might go after someone else." " Sheena!" cried Colette loudly. " Sheena?" " Yes, she's our friend." " Where is she right now?" " Mizuho." " Then we should get going." " Yes. Oh, my name is Colette." " Please to meet you, I'm Takeshi." " We should get going." " Yeah....hm?" Takeshi heard a howl, and he turned to Colette. " We must go now."
" Why did you protect me?" asked Colette, as she walked beside Takeshi. " I didn't want you to get hurt. Simple as that." replied Takeshi. " Oh, I see." " We must hurry." " Yes." " Why? Why did Lloyd suddenly turn into that creature?" " I do not know, but we must move quickly. I rather not have your friend hurt." " Yes, I hope so too."

Chapter 2 people! Credit to Roy for the Sheena paragraphs.
Chapter 2 - " Sacrifice"
After a while Lloyd reached the Mystical Village Mizuho. Everyone was asleep, except Sheena. She was watching the stars and then looked down at the bell of Corrine, that was in her hand. She muttered softly something and gave a deep sigh. Lloyd sneaked around in the town, and sniffed something in the air with his black sensitive nose. Then he smelled Sheena, growled, and rushed in her direction. There she stood, in the middle of the town, watching the stars. Lloyd growled softly and stood there in a battle position, ready to attack if she turned around... Sheena quickly turned and grabbed her cards... she gasped " Lloyd! Is that you?" she hurried toward him only to be thrown back to a tree.. " What happened... why are you like this" she asked in a soft voice.. she slowly backed up...her fear was overwhelming her... she didn’t notice that she had reached the edge of a cliff…
Lloyd growled as an answer and his red eyes glowed a bit more as he showed his fangs while roaring at Sheena. Lloyd walked on his four hairy paws at her, he saw she looked afraid, and smirked a bit. Then he started to run and jumped at her, biting her cards. Sheena quickly let go of her cards... she wouldn’t raise her hand to one of her friends... she'd rather die than that... she quickly jumped down from the cliff... Lloyd just stood there looking down... he growled. He had won.. by scaring her...
As she jumped down off the cliff he walked at the edge and looked down. He growled softly, then he gave a loud roar. He celebrated his triumph. But he was hungry, he had to eat something...Or better; 'someone'. He looked around and sniffled in the air again. But then he realized it would be easier to eat someone who was already dead. He looked down in the edge again, and started to climb down, which didn't fail strange enough, until he reached the bottom and saw Sheena \lying on the ground.
" We must hurry. I do not know if your friend is safe or not. I pray with all my soul, that she is. " " Yes, I hope too." As Colette and Takeshi entered Mizuho, they saw a disaster before them. " Oh no..." " This does not bode well. We must quickly find your friend." " Yes...yes we must. " At first, Colette was nervous, but when she heard the strength and calmness in Takeshi's voice, she recovered quickly. " This is not good....hm?" A howl jolted Takeshi out of his thoughts. " Come, follow me." he said quietly, as he grabbed Colette's hand, and pulled her behind a hut. Lloyd emerged from the shadows, and his eyes glowed red in the moonlight. Colette had to stop herself from gasping. As Lloyd went out of Mizuho, Takeshi sighed a breath of relief. " We better get going" " Yes"
" This is terrible. Mizuho has been destroyed." " Yes, and it will only get worse." " Worse?" " Yes, I'm afraid that each city in Tethe'alla will continue to be destroyed be him." " Oh no....." " I'm very sorry...." " It's not your fault." " Come, let us go." As the two walked past ruined huts, they heard moans of pains, and some cries. " I hope Sheena's alright." " Yes, I hope so too...." As they walked past the last hut, Takeshi flung out his arm, stopping Colette in her tracks. " What's wrong?" " There's a cliff up ahead." Takeshi's eyes were dark and serious. " Takeshi?" " Lets go." He walked up to the edge of the cliff, and Colette followed him.
As Colette looked down the cliff, her eyes widened in surprise. " Wha...Wha...What happened?" " It seems that Lloyd cornered her, and she jumped off the cliff, rather facing death then attacking him. " Takeshi leaped down, and slid down the slooped cliff, Colette behind him. As he reached the bottom, he saw what Lloyd did to Sheena. Colette was beside Takeshi, and as she looked at Sheena, her eyes were filled with sorrow and pain. " Oh Sheena...." " I'm sorry about your friend" " Sheena....." Sheena's body was ripped, completely demolished. " We should give her a burial, and all the villagers here." " Ye...Yes....we should. " Takeshi, carrying Sheena's body, walked up the cliff, with Colette behind, mourning silently, for a true friend, Sheena.

Chapter 3 - " Disaster"
" This is not good. He's slowly giving in to his savage instincts. " " Instincts?" " Yes, he's slowly becoming more insane, not caring what happens." " Oh Lloyd..." " He may be gone, but he will go after someone again." " Yes.....Presea!" " Presea?" " She's another one of our friend." " Hm...we must get to her before he does. Where is she right now?" " Altamira." " Then we must hurry." Takeshi finished burying Sheena, who was the last one, and Mizuho was filled with runied houses, and the bodies of villagers who were killed for no reason. " Lets go." " Yes."
As Lloyd moved towards Altamira, he was losing control of himself. He was slowly going insane. But, in a small part of his mind, he knew the terrible deed he did, and he would never forgive himself for what he did. He stopped, and looking up at the moon, he howled, mourning Sheena's death, and for what he would do next....
" Hm? " Takeshi turned his head as he heard a howl. " Takeshi?" " We have to move." " Yes." " Come on" As Takeshi and Colette moved quickly, they left behind the ruined Mizuho, and headed towards Altamira....
" I hope Presea is alright." " I hope too. I do not want her to suffer the same fate as Sheena." " Yes, me too." " We must move quickly, if we are to save her." " Yes..." As they ran, the sun rose, and Takeshi's hair, turned red, and the light illuminated Colette's face, her eyes filled with sorrow. " Lets continue Colette." " Yes..." They reached Altamira, but, like Mizuho, a disaster laid before them.
" Oh no..." Colette whispered, her eyes shocked and saddened. " We must find her." Takeshi said softly. " Yes, we must. " " Where would your friend be?" " At the Lezareno Company. " " Then we must hurry." " Yes...." Presea...please be safe..." thought Colette, as they ran towards the Elemental Rail, knowing what may lay ahead for them....
As Lloyd reached Altamira, he sniffed around, trying to locate Presea's scent. He knew that slowly, his mind was giving way to the savage instincts, and there was nothing he could do. As he moved silently through Altamira, his eyes glowed red through the night, people ripped through, no one left in the whole city. After much searching, he found what he was looking for, Presea's scent.....
" Do you think your friend is alright?" " I truly hope that she is..." " Yes, I hope so too..." They dashed across the bridge, but Takeshi held out his arm, stopping Colette. " What's wrong?" whispered Colette. " Follow me." Takeshi said quietly, and walking over to the balcony near the lift, he peered over the edge, and Colette, right beside him, looked over, and her eyes widened in surprise. Lloyd was looking around, standing on the dock, eyes darting back and forth, looking for Presea. In the back of his mind, a small part of him was crying, begging not to do the deed that was about to be done. But it was too late. His humane side was now forever lost to the savage side. As his red eyes darted around, his eyes settled on the Lezareno Company, and his mind was set. Leaping into the water, his red suit now torn into shreds, he swam towards the Lezareno Company, and Presea....
" Oh Lloyd...." Colette thought sadly, as she saw him leap into the water and swim towards the Lezareno Company. " We must hurry. I don't know if we can reach there before Lloyd, but I hope that we will reach there to help her..." " Yes, I hope so too..." As they descended down to the dock, they saw that a boat was in the water, laying on its side, but had a hole in it. " We cannot use that boat. I'm afraid I have no choice." " Takeshi?" " I wish it didn't come to this." As Colette looked at Takeshi in confusion, she saw wings, white wings, extend from his back. " Takeshi? You have...." " Yes, I know. Colette, my family was descended from angels." " Takeshi....don't worry." " Hm?" Takeshi saw that Colette, extended her pink wings from her back. " Colette..." " Takeshi, see? I have wings too. So don't be ashamed." " Thank you Colette...." Takeshi said quietly, as he turned his gaze to the Lezareno Company.
As Lloyd climbed onto the dock in front of the Lezareno Company, his red eyes darted around, and settled on two guards standing in front of the doors. He moved silently, and moved behind the guards, and then, he attacked, his claws extended. Cries of agony rang out, but Presea, inside the President's Office, was busy looking over maps of unknown terrain, not knowing the fate that would take place.
" Presea, please be safe." Colette thought, trying to reassure herself, as she and Takeshi flew to the Lezareno Company. As the sun rose, her eyes were filled with despair and sorrow. " This is getting worse..." thought Takeshi, glancing at Colette. " She's losing hope. I just hope that we reach there and help her friend...." They reached the Lezareno Company, and a runined scene greeted them. " Takeshi! " gasped Colette, looking at the two guards that laid before them. " I know...we must move." They ran to the doors, and ran into the lobby, where no one remained. " The President's Office!" Colette cried. " We have to go there." " You know where to go. Lead the way." " Yes." They ran to the elevator, where Colette pressed the Up button, and waited for the elevator. They went in, and after going up a few levels, they reached the President's Office, where they heard a howl and a scream. They ran towards the noise, and Takeshi slammed open the door, where a sight greeted them.

Yes, enter the appearance of my second OC. I changed her name, so her name actually means something.
Chapter 5 - " Ally"
As Takeshi, Colette, and Presea walked along the path, a pair of eyes was folowing them. It was a ninja girl, who eyes were concentrated on Takeshi. She moved through the forest, never losing him from her sight. As she ran, she was eventually ahea of them, and then she waited for them to arrive. As they approached the bridge leading to Ozette, she leaped out. " Stop!" she cried out, and all three of them stopped. " Takeshi, do you know her? Takeshi?" Colette asked, and when she looked at Takeshi, his eyes were dark and serious. " Why are you here Satomi?" Takeshi asked. Satomi had a kimono on that stopped at her waist, with a skirt, and had a katana slung on her shoulder. " Wondering where you went Takeshi!" she responded, looking at him with a hard look. " ......" Takeshi said nothing at this answer. " Um...I'm sorry to ask, but who're you?" Colette asked timidly. " Colette, Presea, meet Satomi, my childhood friend, and a fellow ninja." Takeshi said. " Hello, I'm Colette" she said enthusiatically. " I am Presea." " Please to meet you both!" Sariko said happily.
" So, you two know each other?" Colette asked, as they walked across the bridge to Ozette. " Yep! We grew up together, in a ninja village." Satomi responded. " Wow!" Colette said amazed. " Sariko is skilled in using the katana she has for wind attacks." " And Takeshi is incredibly skilled in using the katana he carries for ice attacks." As they entered Ozette, Presea walked in a different direction. " Presea?" Sariko asked confused. " I have to visit someone. I'll be back later." Presea said, as she walked towards a house at the bottom of hill. " It's okay." Colette told them. " She's just visiting her dad. " Ohhhh....." Satomi said, understanding. " We should go to the inn." Takeshi said, turning and walking to the inn. " Yes..." " Sure."
As Presea walked towards her house, her eyes were filled with sadness and sorrow. She stopped in front of her dad's grave, and kneeled down. She couldn't remember any memories with her father, but talking to her dad's friend, she slowly pieced together what her father was like. She laid down some flowers in front of the grave, and got up, and walked to where everyone is. As Presea walked to the inn, Colette, Takeshi, and Sariko already obtained some rooms. Colette had her own room, Presea would have her own when she arrived, and Takeshi and Sariko had seperate rooms. " Takeshi?" Satomi said, knocking on his door. " Yeah?" Takeshi said, opening his door. " What is it?" " Can I talk to you?" Takeshi nodded. They went outside and stood by the balcony near a shop It was sunset. Takeshi's hair turned red, and Sariko's hair turned red too. " Takeshi, what's going on? Why are you with those two?" " Their friend has been turned into a werewolf demon. He's slowly going insane." " What!? " Satomi exclaimed, shocked. " It's true. He already killed Sheena." " Sheena? Oh no..." " I'm sorry Satomi..." " Sheena...she was a good rival, and a great cousin.." " Yes..." " We're trying to stop him.." " Then I'll help you." " Satomi?" Takeshi said, sounding surprised. " I'll help you." " Then we have to get to Sylvarant before he does." " Then we should move soon." " I agree, but we should rest first." " Yes..." As they went back into the inn, Satomi was lost in memories. It was night by the time everyone walked out of the inn. " We have to hurry. We have to reach the Otherworldly Gate before he does. " " I agree." " Yes...." " Yeah..."
" Sheena, I hope you're happy where you are..." thought Satomi sadly, as she walked beside Takeshi, lost in her thoughts. As the sun set, they walked towards Altamira, where they would go over to the Otherworldy Gate. " We must hurry, or he will reach there before we do." " I agree." Takeshi looked up at the sky, and saw that the sky was darkening quickly. " Hm.....we must protect Colette and Presea's friends, before they lose hope..."
As the moon rose, Lloyd's eyes glowed, and he ran through the forest. His humane side was praying that Colette and Presea reach everyone before he did. He knew that he was disappearing slowly. " Colette, please be safe!" he cried out silently....
As Lloyd darted through the forest, he could see Ozette up ahead. He knew in his mind what would happen when he reached Ozette, and there was nothing he could do to stop it. He hoped that Colette and Presea would still be at Ozette to stop him. He stopped, and, gazing up at the moon, he howled, hoping that they would understand his message.....

Well Takeshi's name means "warrior" and Sato means "village" or "wise" and Mi means "beautiful" Take your pick, either way, you only have one rival for Takeshi Shiku-san
Chapter 6 - " Battle"
" Hm?" Takeshi muttered, as he turned his gaze towards the entrance of Ozette. " Takeshi, what's wrong?" Satomi asked, looking at him. " He's close." Takeshi said softly, and Colette looked sad, while Presea looked anxious. " I won't allow him to destroy this town." Takeshi said, his eyes dark and serious. " I'll help!" Satomi exclaimed. " I will too." Presea added. " Yes...I will too..." Colette said sadly. " Then we must be ready for him." Takeshi said. " I rather not see this town demolished as well..." " I agree." " Yes..." " Yes." Takeshi concentrated his gaze on the entrance, and his hand was near his katana, waiting. Sariko had herfan in her hand, Colette had her chakrams in her hands, and Presea had her ax in her hands, as they all waited...
After a little while, Lloyd reached the entrance of Ozette. The pathways were empty, people asleep. The torches set on the walls flickered and wavered. His red eyes darted around, and he then spotted four shadows. He went into battle position, and then he dashed, arms outstretched, his glowing eyes insane, no remanance of him left, only savage instincts...
" Here he comes..." Takeshi said softly, as he saw Lloyd dash towards them. " Lloyd, please, be careful..." Colette thought to herself. Takeshi pulled out his katana, and Satomi pulled out her katana. Takeshi ran towards Lloyd, followed behind by Satomi. " Forgive me..." Takeshi thought, as he blocked Lloyd's attack, and Satomi sent a gust of wind towards Lloyd to distract him from Takeshi. Lloyd jumped away from Takeshi, leaped up, and landed on a rooftop and ran into the darkness of the night. " Thanks...Satomi." Takeshisaid uncertainly, as he placed his katana back into the sheath. " No problem." Sariko smiled, as she placed her katana back in the sheath. " We have to go now." Takeshi said. " We may have succeeded in stopping him from attacking Ozette, but we have to get ahead of him." " Yeah, we have to go!" Satomi said enthusiatically.
" I hope you can keep that excitement up..." Takeshi said unenthusiatically. " You bet I can!" Satomi replied happily. All four of them were on the path leading to the coast, Takeshi and Sariko ahead, and Colette and Presea behind a bit. " It will be alright Colette." Presea said, trying to cheer Colette up. " Yeah!" Colette said. " Oh Lloyd, where are you? I hope you're safe." she thought sadly. " It's almost dawn. This is a good time for us to move." " Yeah! " After a while, they reached the coast, and it was noon. " We're almost there." " Takeshi, how do you expect us to cross over there!? " Satomi yelled exasperately. " Calm down Satomi. Don't get so exasperated. " " I guess you're right." " Let's take a break." " Sure." " Okay." " Yes." As they sat on the dock on the coast, Takeshi sat at the edge, looking out at the island. Satomi walked behind him, and stopped when she reached him. " Takeshi? " Satomi asked. Takeshi turned his gaze to Sariko, and looked at her. " I brought you something to eat." she said, handing him a sandwich. He took it, and started to eat. Satomi sat down beside him. " I was worried about you when you left the village without a word. " Satomi told him, as she stared out at the water beside him. Her eyes were sad and lonely. " I'm sorry." he said softly, staring out at the water, the sunlight reflecting on the water, both of their hair turning red. " Thanks for the sandwich." he said, turning his gaze and looking at her. " You're welcome." she replied, blushing slightly. " I won't go anywhere without telling you Satomi..." he thought in his mind.

Chapter 7 - " Speculation "
- Iselia Village -
Genis was sitting in his room, no longer wearing the clothes he wore 2 years ago. He now wore a blue jacket on top of a black shirt, and blue pants. His silver hair was still the same, except his back hair was slightly longer. On his desk was his kendama. " Genis!" a voice rang out, and Raine was standing in his room. She no longer wore the clothing from two years ago, but wore a kimono that stopped at her waist, and wore a skirt that stopped at her knees. In her hand was her rod, except it had a red crystal embedded on top of it. " Genis, we have to go." " Okay Raine." Genis replied, placing the book he was reading in the bookcase, and followed his sister outside.
" Let's go." Takeshi said after they finished. " Uh, Takeshi? How do you expect us to get across again?" Satomi asked skeptically. " I must admit, I'm a little unsure myself." Presea added. " Don't worry you two, I'm sure Takeshi knows what he's doing." Colette replied. " Okay..." Presea said. " I guess so..." Satomi replied, still a bit skeptical. Takeshi continued to stare out at the water, lost in thoughts. " Takeshi?" Satomi asked, kneeling down behind him. "Takeshi? " Satomi asked. " Let's go." Takeshi said, getting up. Satomi got up too, and they walked over to Colette and Presea. " Takeshi, how're we going to get over there?" Sariko asked. " I have a idea." " Well, were you planning to share it with us? Or do I have to read your mind?" Sariko asked, a bit amused and a bit annoyed. " I'll tell you, follow me." Takeshi said, motioning Satomi to follow him. When they reached a spot, Takeshi talked to her, and she was attentive, and when he finished, she smiled slyly. Both of them went back to Colette and Presea, and the two of them were confused.
Takeshi, what's going on?" Colette asked, looking confused. " We have a way of getting to the Otherworldly Gate." Takeshi explained. " Really?" Colette exclaimed, looking surprised. " Yeah. We'll explain." Satomi said. As Colette and Presea sat down, Takeshi and Sariko told them. " When we trained in the Village of Mizuho, our Sensei taught us a secret seal that would help us, but it was to be used only in a important time." Takeshi said. " It involves the user having to use a exponential amount of mana." Sariko added. " But, once it's used, there's a limited time to get to your location." Sariko told them. " We plan to use that, and get all of us to the Otherworldly Gate." Takeshi added. " But that seal was only meant to be used by one person, and since there are four of us, Takeshi and me will have to acquire a huge amount of mana." Satomi said. " I was thinking that you, Colette, and Presea, could transfer your mana to us." Takeshi said quietly. " We'll help any way we can!" Colette said determinedly. " Yes, we will." Presea added. " Alright then, we'll begin by transferring your mana to me Colette." Takeshi said. " I understand." Colette replied. Takeshi placed his hand together with Colette's hand, and he closed his eyes, and a white light engulfed their hands. Satomi did they same thing with Presea, and their mana was transferred. " I'm sorry to do this Colette, but it's our best chance. Or would you rather swim?" " No way! I don't want to swim!" Satomi exclaimed. " Alright, Satomi, you'll have to support Presea, and I'll do the same with Colette." " You got it chief." she mocked. " Very funny."
" Ready Satomi?" " Yeah chief." " Very funny." " I know, isn't it?" Takeshi had Colette on his back, and Satomi was holding onto Presea, much to her displeasure.
- 5 minutes ago -
" Takeshi, why do I have to hold onto her!? I'm a girl, not a guy!" Satomi exclaimed. " I can't hold onto two people and use the seal at the same time." " But I'm a girl, and she's a girl! I can't hold onto her! It's not right!" " Satomi, who's going to see you?" " That's not the point!" " Satomi, you have to do it. I can't support Colette and Presea at the same time." " But..." " No buts. Do it." " ....fine." Colette and Presea watched as Takeshi and Satomi argued back and forth, like a tennis match.
- Current -
" Let's go." " Yeah!" " Yes." " Yeah.."
As Lloyd dived into the water, he began to swim away from the shore, heading towards the Otherworldly Gate. The moonlight shone down on him, emphasizing his blood red eyes, which held no remorse for his past actions, only vicious emotions.

Chapter 8 - " Reunion"
As Takeshi, Satomi, Colette, and Presea reached the Otherworldly Gate, the moon aligned overhead, and the stones began to glow. Satomi walked near Takeshi, but she then tripped over a medium sized rock. " Satomi!" Takeshi shouted, turning around as Colette and Presea disappeared, surprise etched on both their faces. " Takeshi!" Satomi cried out, getting up quickly and running towards him. Takeshi stretched out his hand and...
Lloyd saw the moon align, and he dashed towards the stones. He saw the girl trip, and he smiled menacely, and continued to run. He reached the stones, but no one was there. He instinctively leaped, and disappeared, just as the moon moved away. He was moving quickly, and then, he landed outside of Palmacosta, face first. He got up, and sniffed the air around him, and stared at Palmacosta, but turned and ran the other way.
" Takeshi!" a voice rang out, faint. " Takeshi! Wake up! Don't leave me!" the voice rang out again, slightly louder. " Uh...." Takeshi groaned. His eyes slowly opened, and he saw Satomi looking at him with concern. " Takeshi!" Satomi said surprised. " Are you alright?" " Yeah...." Takeshi sat up, and he winced in pain. " Takeshi!" Satomi said, concerned. " I'll be fine...." Takeshi replied. " Where are we?" Takeshi asked, looking around, sunlight pouring through a window. He was sitting in a bed, Satomi sitting beside his bed. " We're in Palmacosta." Satomi told him. " Palmacosta....." " Colette and Presea left to buy some stuff." Satomi said. " You were unconcious when we found you." Satomi told him, looking slightly less worried. " I'm fine." Takeshi replied, getting out of bed. " Are you sure? " Satomi asked him. Takeshi looked over at Satomi, and smiled. Satomi blushed slightly, and picked up his katana and handed to him. Takeshi stood up, and slung the katana back onto his back. " Let's go. We have a long way to go. " " Yeah." Just then, the door opened, and Colette and Presea walked in, carrying bags of items. " Oh Takeshi, how do you feel?" Colette asked, looking worried. " I'm fine, don't worry Colette. " Takeshi replied. Presea looked serious, but she had a bit of concern in her eyes as well. " We have to leave, now."
Lloyd ran towards the edge of the continent, knowing he would eventually reach the coast. It was a long way from Iselia Village, but he knew that nothing would stop him, not even Colette....or Presea. He made his way towards the town closest to Iselia....Triet. His eyes glowed red, and he growled in anticipation.
" Where is the closest town that we should go to?" Takeshi asked Colette, looking down at a map of Sylvarant. " Triet." Colette replied, pointing down at a town in the middle of a desert. " Then that's where we should go. I'm very sure that Lloyd will head towards there as well. We can't afford to let him reach Iselia." " I agree. " Satomi added. " I've seen the strength that he has. " " How did you know?" Colette asked, surprised. " Are you kidding? While I was looking for Takeshi, I passed through Mizuho, and man, was there a disaster. " " Yes.." " We must go." As they moved out of Palmacosta, they headed towards the mountain range, towards Hima.
- In Iselia Village -
" Genis, remember, focus!" Raine told him. " Yeah Raine, I know. Don't need to nag me, I'm 14 you know!" Genis replied, a sly grin on his face. Raine smiled, and shook her head in mild exasperation. Genis turned his gaze towards the target, and raised up his kendama. " I call upon the blade of power of the God of the sea! Tidal Blade!" Genis cried out, and the spell came down on the target, destroying it. " Very good Genis. Next, we'll try a new spell. Try this one. Thunder Lance. " Raine instructed him. " Lord of the Sky, grant me your awesome power! Thunder Lance!" Genis cried out, and a rod of thunder came crashing down...on the school. " Genis!" Raine cried, running over to the school, which was demolished. " Oops...Sorry Raine! " Genis cried after her. Raine stopped at the school, and stared at it in disbelief. " I need to work on my aim..." Genis thought exasperated.
Raine was kneeling at the scattered pieces of wood that was the school. Genis was practicing his spells near the targets again. " Earth Flare!" he shouted, and a pillar of flames emerged from the ground...setting the pile of wood that was the school on fire. " Argh..." Genis groaned. Raine's eyes were glowing in the fire. " Genis!" Raine shouted, and Genis turned and ran, Raine running with her rod in her hands. Genis ran around Iselia, shouting behind him " I'm sorry Raine!" The townspeople stared at Genis being chased by Raine around Iselia, but then Genis ran into a young man with two girls beside him. " Ow!" Genis cried out, as he fell backwards. " Genis? Are you okay?" a famililar voice called out. Genis lifted his gaze, and stared past the three people. " Colette?" he said in disbelief. " He is not hurt." another voice rang out, and Genis turned his gaze, and said, in an audible whisper, " Presea?" Raine stopped beside Genis, and she stared in disbelief.

Chapter 9 - " Questions"
" Colette, who are these two?" Raine asked, as Colette, Presea, Genis, and herself were seated around a table, in Raine's house. Takeshi and Satomi sat together, Takeshi looking outside the window, Satomi looking around nervous. She grabbed Takeshi's hand, and squeezed it gently. " That's Takeshi." Colette indicated to the young man staring outside the window. " And that's Satomi." " Professor, Genis, we have to tell you something." Colette said quietly. She told them everything that happened, Lloyd turning into a werewolf, Sheena dead, and how Presea was nearly killed. Raine was lost in thoughts, but Genis looked shocked and furious. " Lloyd tried to kill Presea!?" he said furiously. " Genis, calm down. Lloyd didn't know what he was doing..." Colette said sadly. " He's going insane." a voice added seriously. They all turned their gazes to Takeshi, no longer staring out the window. " His humane side is slowly disappearing, being replaced with savage instincts. He is coming to kill the remaining members of the group that protected Colette two years ago. He'll come to kill you both, and there's nothing he can do about it..." Raine looked very serious, and Genis was shocked, no longer angry. " Lloyd..." Genis thought sadly. " This is very strange." Raine thought, looking perplexed by this. Takeshi returned looking out the window.
After a while, Lloyd reached Triet, and sniffed the air, trying to find a familar scent. He found one, and his eyes glowed red in the darkness of the night. He ran towards Triet, and he recognized who it was....Regal....
Regal was awake, sitting on his bed inside his room in the inn. He couldn't sleep, and he was writing something in a notebook. The light of the lamp shined in his hair, turning it a lighter colour. Suddenly, a howl rang through the town, and Regal looked up, tense. Triet was silent, the townspeople asleep, dead to the world. Regal looked back down at the notebook, and continued writing. His door was locked, and his greaves were on the desk in his room. He finished writing, and placed the notebook inside a bag hung on the chair. He turned off the light, and went to bed. Another howl rang throught the town. Regal sat up in his bed, and placed his greaves on. Footsteps echoed in the hallway, and Regal looked tensed. He went into battle stance, and readied himself for whatever that thing was. He saw the shadow of a creature, standing in front of his door...
Regal was in battle stance, waiting. Suddenly, the door flew open, and in the doorway, stood a mysterious figure. The moonlight shined on the figure, and Regal was shocked. " Lloyd?" he said surprised. Lloyd growled in response, and was ready to attack Regal. Regal looked into Lloyd's eyes, and understood. " Lloyd's no longer in there. His humane side is gone....only savage instincts...Lloyd, forgive me for what I'm about to do..." Regal thought. He then dashed at Lloyd, and landed two quick kicks into Lloyd's chest, sending him out of the window. Regal looked down at Lloyd's crumpled figure, and turned away, sadness in his eyes. He then heard a thump, and turned around, and surprise filled his eyes. Lloyd was standing in the room, fury in his eyes. His eyes glowed red, and he then howled, rushing at Regal. Regal used Bastion, but he was hit, sending him flying towards the wall in the hallway. He fell on the floor, and got up slowly. Lloyd walked towards him, his eyes red. Regal planted two kick in Lloyd's chest again, but Lloyd knocked him with one swipe. Regal collapsed, exhausted. Lloyd grinned over him, and swiped Regal on the chest, leaving three deep cuts. Regal could no longer fight back, and Lloyd took advantage of this. He threw Regal out of the window, and heard a dull thump. He smiled in the darkness, and howled, leaving the people of Triet a disaster...
" Do you know anyone that he would go after, that's close to here?" Takeshi asked, as the map of Sylvarant was spread across the table in Raine and Genis' house. " We received this letter from one of our friends." Raine replied, walking over to a desk, and opened a drawer, and pulled out a letter. Raine handed the letter to Takeshi, and he read it, his eyes sliding quickly down the piece of paper. " Takeshi?" Saru asked quietly, and Takeshi looked grim, his eyes emotionless. " We have to go to Triet..." Takeshi said quietly, and he took the map of Sylvarant, and placed it in his pocket. " Well, I’m coming too." Satomi said. " We're coming too." Colette said, looking determined. Presea nodded as well. " So are we." Raine added, and Genis looked scared but determined as well. " Alright then..." Takeshi said, smiling slightly.
" You seem a bit tense." Takeshi said to Genis, who was a bit scared. " It's just...I never would have expcted to be fighting my best friend. It makes no sense. " Genis replied, looking down. " Don't worry." Takeshi said, smiling slightly. " I promise you, no harm shall be done to your friend. I will find a way to return him back to normal, alright?" Takeshi said, looking at Genis behind his black hair. " Okay." Genis replied, looking less tense.
