Kuriboh: Ok, I was just thinking about Felix last night.

CM: It's wasn't just Felix you were thinking about.

Kuri:Moo?

Angel: *giggle * try something you were going to DO to him.

Kuri: No, that's Piers.

Angel: Oh, carry on!

Kuri: As I was saying, *glares at CM and Angel * I was just thinking about Felix and Jenna last night, and what Felix was like before the storm. I was also in one of THOSE moods, so the idea turned into a sad story.cause I love torturing characters. Anyways, without further ado, I present the latest of my stories.

Felix.

By: the ppl of CMAK
Never in the history of Angara had such a perfect day ever occurred. It was the middle of summer, the bird were singing, the bees were buzzing, rabbits and squrrils were running around chittering and chattering. Children were out playing, their laughs echoing to the point of the old Vale, and the ruins of My.Aleph.

Where Vale used to be, there was nothing. And where Mt. Aleph used to stand; tall and magestic, only a small hill remained, to serve as a reminder of what once was. Atop this hill and the area around it, a forest was budding, spreading from the one surrounding the valley. Already trees had grown over Vale's entrance, the nearby Alchemy source speeding the growth, and extending the lives of the trees and shrubs in the area.

It was under one of these massive, enchanted trees that Jenna sat. She was in no way enjoying the day's marvels. The beauty and perfection was lost upon her as she sat under the tree, her knees drawn up to her chest and her arms hugging her knees;her head was down, and he shoulders were shaking.

Jenna sobbed, and sobbed into her skirt. She had been crying for the past while now, ever since.

*~*~*

A band of foragers came back to Vault bearing fruit, meat, fish and fresh water. Jenna ran to greet the party, led by none other than her dear brother, Felix. HE was smiling, nay, laughing as were the rest of the party. Piers cam over to pat Felix on the back, when without warning, Felix dropped, completely out cold, on the ground face down. Upon turning him over, it was revealed that his face was deathly pale, and his breathing had become ragged. Jenna's screams had attracted a mob scene, and in the end, Felix had ended up in the sanctum with an insanely high fever and laboured breathing.

*~*~*
That had been well over 6 hours ago. Now, Jenna was still crying. She had run to the ruins of Vale about 4 hours ago, to escape the noise of the city, and to be alone to cry. Her parets were back, Vale was being rebuilt, but she felt empty without Felix; and emptyness that had nearly consumed her before the incident at Sol Sanctum. When Saturos and Menardi had been killed, and they had set off into the continent of Indra, Jenna was overjoyed. Felix, her dear brother Felix, was back, and he was the Felix that had often led her around the caves and forests of Vale, not the Felix that obeyed the command of some stick-up-the-arse fire bimbo and her moronic blueberry of a sidekick. In fact, up until today, Jenna had never been happier! But then.

She unfurled herself from the ball she had curled up into, and lay down on the ground, stretching out. The breif intermission ended quickly however, as the sorrow overcame Jenna, and she curled up into a fetal postion on the ground and began sobbing again.

It was like this that Piers found her.

"Jenn, are you alright?" Piers asked softly.

"D-do I look *sniff * aright to you *hic *" She sobbed in reply.

"Aw, don't worry. Felix is a strong guy. He'll be ok," Piers reassured her. He walked over and helped Jenna up. She responded by latching on to his chest, and proceeded to sob again. "Look," he said, trying desparatly to calm the girl, "if it will make you feel better, we'll go visit the sanctum. Alright? Come on, everyone is worried about you," at this, Jenna could only nod. She followed Piers back to Vault without a sound.

Kuri: So sorry I had to end it here. I just got a cat the other day, and I have schoolwork to finish. Anywho, I'll probably get this done within the week.

CM; That is, if she remembers.

Angel: Yeah, we all know that CMAK as a group has a VERY bad history of updating. Right, Kuri?

CM: Kuriboh?

Kuri: *Is LONG gone *

Angel: Whatever. Come on, I'm tired.

CM: Yeah, same here, and I don't want to have to put up with pissy chibis in the morning. Anyways, Review!
