Disclaimer: No, I don't own Golden Sun, and I pretty much don't care who does, and I don't know. Is it not obvious I don't own Golden Sun?!?
Golden Sun: The Fight for the Stars
Prologue: What happened afterwards
The sunshine streamed through the window into Isaac's bedroom, and its rays lit up the whole place. He had forgotten to draw his curtains again. Isaac himself was snoring quietly in his bed, his eyes shut and golden-brown hair in a total mess.
A few minutes later, the chirping of birds outside awoke him. Isaac yawned, and glanced blearily outside. "It's morning." He thought, and threw back the pale brown covers. Stepping into the bathroom, he cleaned himself up, and went downstairs.
Isaac could hear the sounds of his mother humming and cooking at the same time as he made his way to the kitchen. He smiled absentmindedly, feeling happy and carefree for once.
As he entered the kitchen, Isaac saw his father, Kyle, reading the local newspaper at the dining table, and his mother, Dora, at the kitchen worktop making breakfast. He sat down opposite his father. "Morning Dad."
"Morning son." Kyle nodded and smiled at his son.
"Oh, hello Isaac. Had a nice sleep?" Dora turned around and addressed him.
"Yeah, great." Isaac smiled. His mother beamed, and carried on making breakfast. He sighed with happiness. These were one of the few times in his life that he felt completely safe, happy and loved. He thought back to the events that had happened over the past year.
Isaac visualised him and his other friends, fighting side by side. Garet, Ivan, Mia, Felix, Jenna, Sheba and Piers. All of them had contributed in making the world safe once again. As he lost himself in his thoughts, he didn't notice a large figure walk into the room.
"Isaac. Hey, Isaac!" Isaac snapped out of his daydreams, only to come face to face with a bemused Garet.
"Daydreaming again, hey?" Garet laughed, grinning.
"Yeah." Isaac smiled sheepishly. "Sorry."
"Hey, no need to say sorry. You always say that when you haven't done anything wrong." Garet chuckled at his best friend. Isaac returned the smile.
"Well, hello Garet." Dora said, "Care to join us for breakfast?"
"Yeah, if it's alright with you, Dora."
"It's my pleasure."
Garet joined Isaac's family at the dining table, much to Isaac's amusement. After knowing Garet for such a long time, Dora had grown use to Garet coming over to their house. The first time he dropped by and she invited him to dine with them, Garet ate up almost all the food, and from then on, Dora made sure she had enough food at breakfast to keep him busy if he ever came round.
As they ate, Isaac's mind wandered off again, still preoccupied with his recent adventures that had only happened two months ago. This time, he found himself thinking about his friends that he had not seen for a while. Ivan, Mia, Sheba and Piers. They had returned to their homelands after their adventures. He missed each one of them sorely, especially Ivan and Mia, who he and Garet had travelled with the most during his quest. He had only met Sheba and Piers later, but he had still made great friends with them.
Isaac thought of Ivan. The young Jupiter adept had returned to Kalay. Ivan had wanted to see his sister again, since he had found her not too long ago, during their journey. Isaac and him had developed a companionable friendship, helping each other in times of crisis, and also found a listener in each other. Isaac found he could talk to Ivan easily and turn to him for advice, for he was very wise for his age. He smiled as he remembered Ivan arguing with Garet from time to time. For a little guy, he sure put up a great fight, whether in or out of the battlefield.
His mind wandered next to the Mercury adept Mia, the gentle healer from Imil. She possessed the grace and beauty of the water, just like her element. She was unlike other girls, in many ways, though Isaac couldn't say how, or why. She just was. Mia stood out.
Garet and Ivan were with him when they had met Mia in Imil. The healer had decided to join them after they couldn't prevent the Mercury lighthouse from being lit. She had been a great help to them, even though she had always thought herself the weakest of the group. Isaac thought this very untrue. She was brave, and definitely a very good fighter, with or without her Psynergy. Even if she was weak, she was still a really good healer. If it hadn't been for her, Isaac probably wouldn't be alive, and maybe Garet and Ivan too.
Sheba and Piers were lovely people. Sheba was quiet and reserved, a little like Mia, and used her head. She, like Ivan, could read minds, as a Jupiter adept. Sheba was a mystery to Isaac, really, but he immediately took a liking to her. That was helped by Ivan's great trust in her too. Isaac sometimes suspected that Ivan liked Sheba, but he kept his mouth shut.
Piers was gallant, strong, and willing to fight for his friends all the way. Isaac and him didn't talk much, but they knew they could trust each other. Isaac also felt that Piers really reminded him of Mia...
Isaac suddenly realised he had finished his breakfast, and stood to leave. Garet was still scoffing down a pile of pancakes with a lot of syrup. "Come on Garet. We're meeting Jenna at the tree, remember?"
At the mention of Jenna and the meeting at the tree, Garet's head shot up from the plate. "Phets woe!"
"Pardon?" Isaac asked, amused that his friend couldn't speak properly, even though he understood what Garet had said.
Garet swallowed, and stood up. "I said, let's go." Isaac nodded, smirking. Garet turned to Dora and Kyle. "Thanks for the breakfast."
"No problem, any time." Dora smiled, and Kyle nodded.
Isaac and Garet rushed off to the tree in the centre of the village to meet Jenna. They didn't want to be late, because standing Jenna up was not a good idea. You never knew what she could do if someone got her worked up into a temper.
They found Jenna sitting in the shade of the tree. She stood up as Isaac and Garet neared, and stopped in front of her, panting. "You're late. Again." She said, a small smile twitching at her lips.
"Not fair, Jen." Garet panted. "We tried our best to be a little earlier."
The two argued for a while, until Isaac told them to shut up. Jenna obediently did so, and Garet grumbled something about one of his best friends being such a suck up to his other best friend (no guess who he's talking about, right?). "Pardon Garet?" Jenna threatened, blushing a little.
"Oh, nothing." Garet replied quickly.
The three walked in silence, until they bumped into Felix, and he was dragging two children in tow. "Hi Felix." Jenna called to her brother. He nodded, being a man of little words, at the three friends. Isaac craned his neck to get a better look at the children behind him.
"Aren't they Kay and Aaron?" Isaac asked, perplexed. Felix nodded silently.
Garet grinned and frowned at the same time, being amused at the situation that his younger siblings were in, and worried for them at the same time. He stepped forward. "What have you two done this time?" he sighed.
"Nothing, Garet." Twelve-year-old Kay said quickly. She glared at her younger brother, Aaron.
"Aaron...." Garet began in a mock angry voice. "Tell me...or else you-know-what."
Aaron nodded hurriedly, his face scared, "I'm sorry big bro, but me and Kay were only trying to trick master Felix into dying his hair green..." he mumbled, receiving a horrible look from his sister.
Garet blinked at his eleven-year-old brother. Jenna began to smile, and then she started to laugh manically. Isaac grinned at the idea of Felix having green hair.
"Okay, and why the hell did you do that?" Garet asked, trying not to smile.
"Because... We thought it would be funny..." Aaron rambled on, "We just swapped his normal hair shampoo with some green dye, that's all! It was just for a little fun!"
Garet smiled, amused, and a part of him wanted the trick to have worked. "And you didn't think you'd get caught by master Felix here?" Aaron hung his head. "You know that he is a Venus adept, like Isaac, and he is very powerful. But... thanks for being so honest Aaron. However, you and Kay will be grounded tomorrow. And Kay, if you don't stop giving Aaron dirty looks, then I'll make it a week. For you only." Garet warned his sister.
The two children nodded in silence, and walked away. Garet sighed. "I'm sorry Felix. Sometimes, I don't know what to do with these kids..."
Felix nodded, as if to say, "It's fine, I understand." And the brown haired Venus adept strolled away silently, giving Jenna a short glare because she was still laughing like mad.
"Imagine, my brother with green hair!" she cried. The three friends laughed, and carried on walking, chatting amiably. Life was good. But it wasn't going to last long...
