Harvest Moon Island of Confusion

Third Seal Activation!

"I need to save my final breath for Chelsea!"

Mark ran ahead of his team member's in search of his childhood friend. His eyes scouted his surroundings, rather frantically. His gaze to each side was swift. Both Allen and Ash halted, needing to catch their breath.

As Mark ran up the staircase, he was alarmed and very startled when the door before him came flying into him. The explosion was large, an explosion caused by none other than the two main offender's themselves. Or so he thought.

"Termination"

"Chelsea!?"

She was glowing.... a light brighter than what even the Gods above could have. Her hair brushed by her ankles, a head filled with gold. Each strand was precious, and for her eye's.... they were a frightening Crimson. A red seeming thicker than blood. She was no longer a Chelsea in which these men and women knew... she was now someone in which they feared.

The Goddess stares down sorrowfully. Tears trickling down her cheeks and vanishing before they had the chance to collide with the floor. Yuuki's eye's widened at the sight of his prisoner, and he grinned devilishly at her.

Chelsea held out her palm, where a portal of light began to form. More than a portal... it was a black hole. "Third Seal Activation. Gate to restoration, open!" her voice was done mechanically.

....................................

"..... I'm sorry"

"Do not be remorseful, son. I do not regret this in the slightest, for now I may rest....."

Shea huffs, as his hands were now tainted by familiar blood. Shea arches his brows and further sinks the blade deep into his father's chest. "I cannot save you, for your very being died a long time ago" tears filled his eyes to the brim, as he says so weakly. "However; when you face your maker, you can now tell him that you did not die in vein.. you died protecting that which you always loved, your son."

"Boy......"

"It's just a shame.... you loved the wrong son...."

Lord Jinoah bends at the knees and slides down to the dirt, where his blood began to dampen the soil. "I never once stopped loving Yuuki" he whispers. "I just stopped loving the monster I created"

"So you finally admit that you created who he is today?" Shea asks, but Lord Jinoah shook his head.

"I was a horrible man, who did indeed give Yuuki a reason to resent.... however; I not once beckoned for him to walk the same path as I did... that was forced onto the boy by your Goddess's actions"

Shea sighs, pulling the sword from Jinoah's flesh, before picking up the man's weakened body, and carrying him off elsewhere. "I know..." Shea replies. "Which is why she is not forgiven"

..............................

"What the....?" Kana remained baffled as Rachel, whom once had a weapon only centimetres away from his friend, vanished before their eye's, leaving only a glittering dust in her place.

"She has gone.." Soseki too commented.

Denny was at a loss for words. He rose from the floor, and tied the material around his wrist. He cocks his head to face where his partner's stood, and all they could do was shrug their shoulder's at the situation.

"Whatever happened" Denny says. "Let's not take it as a reason to celebrate. She obviously left for a reason, and whatever reason it may be, can only be disastrous for us"

"Oh that was boring" Their eye's now directed at Kenji who stepped out from the shadows. They widen, obviously being because they forgot that he was still present. Kenji smirks at their surprised expressions. "Either way, I am not interested in fighting you" he exclaims. Soseki and Kana raised a brow.

"Oh? What are you interested in?" Soseki asks.

Kenji hesitates to answer such a thing, and although the men found his reaction suspicious, Denny clued on rather quickly to what it may be. "It's about Chelsea?"

Kenji nods. "Yes. My interests is indeed my sister" The moment that was said, all three men fell to the ground in shock. "Oh, that's right" Kenji replies. "You guys were unaware?"

As Kana rises he sizes Chelsea's brother up. "Does this mean you will help us find her?" he asks him, and Kenji, once again, was found nodding.

"Great!" Denny sighs. "Than let's go!"

...................................

Not long after Mark was thrown aback with the door, Vaughn and Neil caught up to Allen and Ash. In front of them was Mark, who to be completely honest, appeared as a bug that had just been squished.

"Poor soul" Ash sighs. Each man nods in unison at his statement.

They push the the rubble off of him, and pick him up before they too, appeared blinded by Chelsea's appearance. "Is that....!?"

"Yes." Mark says, answering Vaughn's incomplete sentence.

Beside Chelsea, stood two very faint angel's. One of Darkness, and her opposing being, one of light. "Rachel!" Neil shouts.

"Lillian!" Ash adds on.

Rachel and Lillian, who both stood a tad behind our Heroine, joined palms where their finger's than intertwined with each other's. "First Seal, activated" Lillian announces. "Second Seal, activated" Rachel read out afterwards.

Two lights spiralled upwards from the pair, blasting through the roof to merge and form yin and yang. The pupil's in Chelsea's eye's disappeared, leaving only light to shine in their place. Soon, all of her eyes emanated a powerfully blinding light.

"The purpose of this attack, is that two wishes are granted..." the Goddess explains. "It is written in the prophecy, that the first will be used for selfish purposes, and the purpose of the second wish, is so that it can be used to cancel out such a desire....."

Lord Yuuki's ears twitched to the sound. "Ah, I see. So my wish will be used to grant my own selfish desires, which in the end is going to be canceled out by that little girl? What is the purpose in the damn wish then!?" he mumbled that part to himself.

Suddenly... the words the Harvest Goddess has been anxiously awaiting to dread, was said. "Third Seal.... Activated!"
