Runic Sword

Once we reached Kohlingen, Ruby told us to follow her to her house. And while we walked through the village, I saw that the technology on this world was pretty bad. It wasn't medieval, but wasn't much better. They hadn't got guns, and the closest I could think of, it would be a medieval steampunk world...

We entered the house, and Ruby yelled ''I'm home!!''. Ruby had blonde long hair, and red eyes. She was probably 9 or 10. and I immediately saw that the hair was his mother's. The mother had blonde long wavy hair and blue eyes. And looked kind of strong... like a soldier. The father had silver short hair, but it wasn't silver because of old, And blue eyes. He had clothes that resembled a thief... but I don't know about this world's fashion...

Ruby- mom, dad, this girl saved me with her friends! And she knows magic! Just like you! It was awesome!! I-

Woman- Ruby! I'm sorry for my daughter's demeanor... she took after her father...

Man- oy!

Woman- my name is Celes Chere. And my husband is-

Man- the great treasure hunter Locke Cole!

Juny-...has any of you heard of him?

Harry- no...

Sirius- nope.

Rainy- I did... I think? There was a Locke and a Celes on the book of the heroes that defeated Kefka...

Ruby- yes! That's my parents!! they are awesome, right!?

Celes- Ruby...

Rainy- I have a question... is Sabin stronger than you?

Celes- ? you know Sabin?

Rainy- we came here in his castle, and he was really strong...

Locke- and how are they? We haven't seen Edgar or Sabin in a lot of time!

Rainy- well.. they are kings... not sure what I can say apart of that...

Juny- anyway! We need to find the new Blackjack. So let's go!

Locke- Blackjack!? Setzer's old airship? It was destroyed when Kefka... got his powers...

Juny- no, a girl I know has made a new airship, in honor to that one

Ruby- !! right!! a girl appeared a week ago to tell me that I had to tell my parents about you!

Celes/Locke- what?

Ruby- yes! She told me that you had to guide them to the place where the Falcon was buried. That there was a new airship there for them.

Celes- and why didn't you told us before?

Ruby-...I forgot it? *Teehee*

Celes- *sigh*

Locke- then we have to go on another adventure? What dangers do you have to face?

Rainy- actually, we are going to the opera.

Celes-*siiiigh*

Locke- haha, cool! Celes acted as Maria once on the opera!

Ruby- really!!?? wow! I want to see that opera now!

Locke- sure! What do you say Celes?

Celes- ... does it matter what I say?

Locke- nope! We win two to one!

Celes-... ! but we wouldn't want to bother this good people right?

Juny- it's no bother!! you are welcome to the airship!

Rainy- (Juny is enjoying this too much...)

Celes- fiiine...

Locke/Ruby- woohoo!

Rainy- so... where are we going?

Celes- the Falcon was on the tomb on the west. So we'll go there.

We continued talking a little, and we ended up having dinner on their house. After sleeping on the inn of the town, we joined Celes, Locke, and Ruby, and got out of the town. Celes got a rapier, and Locke had two daggers. I thought that Ruby wouldn't fight but she took a dagger too. And during the journey, I conjured my own rapier to match Celes's.

Celes- you fight with a rapier too?

Rainy- yes! Since I was 10!

Celes- oh? You are quite good with it... but I suggest you to...

The rest of the journey, Celes helped me with my rapier skills. And when she saw that we had magic, she told me that she could absorb magic with her sword when she had magic inside of her

Rainy- can I try something?

Celes- oh? Go on.

Rainy- (Extract) thanks.

Celes- what have you done?

Rainy- you'll see.

When the next monsters appeared, I used Shell! to make sure that I wouldn't get hurt and when one of the enemies launched a fireball to harry, I yelled ''Runic!'' My rapier glowed, and the fireball got redirected to the rapier, which absorbed the magic, and regenerated my lost mana. Then I advanced and killed the monster with an horizontal cut.

Rainy- awesome!

Celes- w-what... what was that?

Locke- that was Celes's Runic Sword skill!

Rainy- hehe! I can copy unique skills like that one! And it's awesome! It even regenerates mana!

Celes- w-wow...

Ruby- is that one of the magics of mom? Awesome!

Locke- yes, yes it is...

Juny- Rainy, I'm sure that you think it's normal right now... but you should ask before using extract with a friend. Is true that they won't lose anything... but it's rude to use that without consent.

Rainy- oh... sorry!

We continued the journey towards the tomb with me apologizing about the extraction. and soon we reached the doors of the tomb.
