Alex’s Quest

Summary

A Golden Sun fanfic I wrote in 2004 as a teenager on the Golden Sun Bazar French website under the pseudonym Water Seer. I was able to recover it thanks to Wayback Machine.

Several months later, Mya has decided to have a child with her lover Garet but Vaiazak, a malevolent sorcerer, kidnaps her after giving her friends amnesia! Fortunately, Alex, who is also in love with her, is unaffected. Thus he embarks on an otherworldly quest to rescue her by using the Stargate.

Introduction.

Several months later, Mya had decided to have a child. All the Adepts eagerly awaited this event. Meanwhile, in another world, Vaiazak, a malevolent sorcerer, had stolen the Elemental Crystals. He's proud of that because it starts the destruction of the world and only he will survive! But he wants a wife, and he immediately knows whom to kidnap. "All I have to do is throw Amnesia Powder on her friends and no one will come to save her!" Mya, in Vale, wakes up. "I have a funny feeling. As if... yes, the Stargate has opened! Who will emerge?" At the same time, a gust of wind rips the roof off the house and carries her into the river, where a whirlpool of water ensues!

Mya: GARET! GARET, HELP ME!

Garet (who has just received Blue Powder): Mmmm... But who are you?

Mya: WHAT! YOU DON'T RECOGNIZE ME! IT'S ME, MYA, YOUR WIFE!!!

Garet: My wife!!! I've never had a wife!

Mya: GARET? "Well, I'll have to..." JENNA! SHEBA!

Jenna and Sheba: What!?

Mya: I AM YOUR FRIEND, HELP ME!

Sheba: Our friend?

Jenna: She's crazy. WE NEVER SAW YOU BEFORE!!!

"Am I hallucinating or have they all forgotten who I am!?" Mya falls into the water vortex.

Mya: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! FELIX! PIERS! ISAAC!

Isaac: Do you know this girl?

Felix and Piers: No.

Mya: AH, I DON'T WANT TO END HERE! "IVAN! HELP ME!"

Ivan (receiving her telepathic call): "How did you know my name was Ivan? Who are you!? ...Mia, do you know this girl!?"

Mya: "IT'S ME!!!"

Mia: "No."

"Oh no," thought Mya, "they've all forgotten who I am!"

Mya (getting sucked into the whirlpool): NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Mya, after being sucked in, changes into a ray that goes to the Stargate. The Gate closes behind her.

Chapter 1: Shock Amnesia!

Alex comes over at Vale.

Alex: Isaac, is Mya okay?

Isaac: Mya? I don't know any Mya! Except the one who guards the Mercury Lighthouse...

Alex: It's all right, I'm sorry to have bothered you.

Seeing that it was odd that Isaac didn't remember Mya, he goes to ask Jenna, Sheba, Felix, Piers and Garet. They answer the same as Isaac, which makes Alex worried. He sends a telepathic call to Ivan, who says he doesn't know her either. So Alex teleports to Imil to ask Mia. She gives the same answer as the others. "All her friends have forgotten her. There's magic in this! Now just to find out how? Well..."

Alex: Mia, what's that Blue Powder you got on your dress?

Mia: I don't know. I've had it since this morning.

Alex: Since this morning!? I hadn't noticed, but it seems everyone has it!

Mia: What?

Alex: This Powder has made you and the others forget Mya!

Mia: Who the heck is this Mya?

Alex: She's a friend, an All Adept, a perfect woman who possesses Alchemy. The Alchemy I want...

Mia: My poor Alex! You're going crazy!

Alex: No, I know I'm not crazy. The proof is that I'm going to bring her back!

He disappears.

Mia: Alex!

He runs past Jenna and Sheba, who wonder what's wrong with him, and goes to the Stargate.

There, he spends three hours finding the combination of the seven symbols. Once he's found it, he goes through the Gate.

Chapter 2: Kitten and the curse.

Alex finds himself near a village. It's dark. He heads for it. There he goes to the inn.

The innkeeper: 15 Coins for one night... and 20 Coins more for a slave.

Alex : A slave!?

The innkeeper: Yes. Don't you know that our inn is famous for its slaves who obey your every word during your stay?

Alex (not wanting to appear ignorant) : Yes, of course I know that!

The innkeeper: So you're taking one?

Alex (who had a little idea) : Yes.

The innkeeper: Very well. SLAVES, COME HERE!

No one comes.

The innkeeper: SLA-VES!!!

A young girl about Mya's age, with brown hair and green eyes, dressed in a rag, arrives.

The innkeeper (who didn't seem too pleased to see her): Where are the others!

The slave girl: I'm the only one free.

The innkeeper (embarrassed): Sir, I'd advise you not to take her. She's the worst of them all! Go away Kitten!

The girl runs off. "Kitten? Alex thought. Funny name."

Alex: Uh... I'd like to take her.

The innkeeper: You can't be serious!

Alex: I won't stay long and I'll pay you double.

The innkeeper: Double! In that case, I'll let you have her! KITTEN!

Kitten (is that her real name?): Yes.

The innkeeper: Come here.

Kitten arrives very slowly, as if she's afraid.

The innkeeper: You will obey this man during his stay, and beware if anything goes wrong!

Kitten: O-of course. Welcome to the Saka Inn. My name is Kitten and I will obey you throughout your stay.

Alex: Good. In that case, take me to my room.

Kitten: Of course. The "deluxe" one or the "crappy" one?

The innkeeper: KITTEN!

Alex: Isn't there an in-between?

Kitten: Oh yes, of course! Please follow me.

Kitten led Alex to his room. It was a room with just a bed, a window, a small bath (in the "deluxe" one there would be a whirlpool!) and a wardrobe.

Alex: It suits me. (He lies down in bed.) I have to rest now, I have a lot of things to do tomorrow.

Kitten (who would have liked to ask him what those "things" were): ...

Alex: ?

Kitten: Sir... I'd like to know - if you don't mind my asking - what these "things" are?

Alex: Well, it's pretty hard to explain...

The innkeeper (who was passing by and had heard everything) : HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT YOU SHOULD NEVER ASK QUESTIONS UNLESS YOU'RE TOLD?

Kitten (nervous): Tons of times!

The innkeeper (leaving): THEN SHUT UP!!!

Kitten: I'm sorry, sir. It's part of the rules.

Alex: It's nothing. I'm going to be nice, so just obey me and everything will be fine.

Kitten: Yes, sir.

Alex: First of all, call me Alex.

Kitten: Okay... Alex.

Alex: Secondly, is your real name Kitten?

Kitten: No. My real name is Kaisa.

Alex: So why do they call you that?

Kaisa: That was when a man came to the inn and "rented" my services. He kept calling me Kitten.

Alex: And it stuck?

Kaisa: Yes.

Alex: In that case, from now on your name will be Kaisa.

Kaisa: Good.

Alex: Well, you'd better go to bed.

Kaisa (wondering why he's asking her that): Okay.

She lay in a ball on the floor beside the bed. Alex went to the window.

Alex (thinking out loud): Mya... you may think your friends have abandoned you, but they haven't. They have amnesia because of a spell. I'm the only one who can save you. Ah, Mya, I love you and will always love you...! If it wasn't for Garet! Anyway, even if you love him instead of me, I'm still going to save you. After all, I'm an Adept.

Kaisa, who wasn't really asleep, heard everything. She waited for Alex to go to bed before getting up. Standing up, she asked herself tons of questions. "Who was this Mya? Was she really in danger? Alex seems to love her, but so does this Garet... in fact, who is this Garet? And what does 'Adept' mean? I'll ask him tomorrow." Kaisa goes to bed.

"I'm on the edge of an abyss. I throw myself into it. After a descent of several months, I find myself at the center of the earth! There I saw a young girl tied up.

The girl: Go away before he comes!

Kaisa: What?

The girl: GO AWAY! IF YOU DON'T LEAVE... OH NO!

A huge sand-colored beam hits me.

An icy voice: Now you're cursed! You'll have inherited powers, but you'll turn to sand if you don't water yourself all the time! And the only way you'll ever be normal again will be with 100% Pure water! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!"

Kaisa wakes up in a sweat. Alex had been awake for a long time and he asks her what's going on. She tells him about her nightmare.

Alex: Does that mean you should always be watered, otherwise you'll fall into sand?

Kaisa: That's it and I'm scared! Where will we find Pure Water? Oh no... my fingers are turning to sand! I...!

She collapses. All that's left of her is a pile of sand!

Alex: Oh no, Kaisa!!!!

Chapter 3: In search of Pure Water...

Alex put what was left of Kaisa in a bag (since when did he have bags?) and ran out of the inn. An angelic-looking girl came to stop him.

The girl: My name is Marie and I'm Saka's apprentice priestess. You seem to be panicking...

Alex: Do you know where I can find 100% pure water?

Marie: There's no water purer than Holy Water.

Alex: Holy water? You mean the Water of Life?

Marie: Yes.

Alex (sighing): But it's rare to find some!

Marie: I have it for one use... but I don't give it to just anyone!

Alex (showing the bag of sand): It's for her!

Marie: Oh, Lord! She's been cursed! Poor thing... the only advantage is that she'll have Earth Psynergy but...

Alex: Have you heard of Psynergy!?

Marie: Yes, but all the Adepts in this world have been eliminated by Vaiazak, an unscrupulous sorcerer! He's even got hold of the Elemental Crystals! The world is going to die and no one can stop it!

Alex: I can! I'm an Adept from another world. I could stop him with Kaisa, but I need Pure Water!

Marie: The fate of the world is in your hands. In that case, I'll get the Water!

She leaves and returns five minutes later with the Water. Alex takes all the sand out of the bag and Marie sprinkle it with the Water. The sand turns into Kaisa!

Kaisa: Oh, my head! What happened? I can't remember anything when I'm in sand...

Alex tells her everything. He reveals that she's also an Earth Adept (after telling her what that is). Then Marie tells them that Vaiazak's domain is in the center of the earth and to get there they have to go to Sika-Kadarec village.

Alex: Well, we know where to go.

Marie (handing a rod weapon to Kaisa): Go quickly and follow the road!

Kaisa (walking away with Alex): Okay and I'd stay out of the sun!

"I don't want the water in my body to evaporate and I'll go back to being a big pile of sand!"

Chapter 4: Cydric, last Wind Adept, Tower of Jupiter’s guardian and... werewolf!

Alex and Kaisa set off, and after several days' walking (Kaisa couldn't stay human that long!) they arrived at the town of Terra. There, Alex learns that this is where the Tower of Venus is (where the Crystal of Venus used to be). After spending a night at the inn and finding some Water of Life (by begging the town priest!), Alex and Kaisa (now human again!) leave the town. They walk for a day, arriving at night in a seemingly deserted village.

Kaisa: Why are there so few people?

???: It's because of me.

Alex: Show yourself!

???: No. If I showed up, it would be a disaster!

Kaisa: Hey, is that the Tower of Jupiter over there?

???: Yes, and I'm the guardian. Well, I've only been for a week.

Alex: You're a Wind Adept?

???: ...Yes, the last one. But I can only do Ray and Wrilwind.

Kaisa: It's not as bad as me. I only know how to use Cure. By the way, my name is Kaisa and yours?

???: Cydric.

Kaisa: Enchanted, Cydric. But why don't you show yourself?

Cydric (whose voice becomes more... savage): Because... it's thanks to a potion that... I can control myself. I... GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

A werewolf pounces on Kaisa!

Kaisa: LET ME GO!

Alex: GLACIER!

Alex's Psynergy hurts the werewolf, but he counters with a Psynergy! Wind Psynergy!

Kaisa (who was able to walk away) : Cy-Cydric?

Alex: LET'S GO!

They fled and waited for the moon to go down. Then they return to the village and find Cydric with the same wounds as the werewolf!

Alex: You're a werewolf!

Cydric: Yes, it's a curse I received from Vaiazak. He doesn't want me to find the Jupiter Crystal.

Kaisa: He put one on me too. I'm starting to get sandy again! Do you have any water?

Cydric fetches some water. Kaisa doused herself with it and became solid again.

Cydric: So that's your curse? It's not as bad as mine!

Kaisa: You're talking! When I'm in sand, I don't know what's going on. It's like I'm on "pause." It's not practical.

Alex: Anyway. Cydric, will you join us? To defeat Vaiazak and take back the Crystals?

Cydric: I... if I leave the village, I won't have the potion that allowed me to control myself during my transformations...

Kaisa: We'll manage. Besides the full moon won't arrive for several evenings.

Cydric: Well then, I'll join you!

Cydric joined them and they set off again. They passed the town where the Tower of Mercury is and headed for where the Tower of Mars is. "Next," Alex thought, "it'll be Sika-Kandarec."

Chapter 5: Diana and metamorphosis.

Alex, Kaisa and Cydric arrive at the Tower of Mars. There, they meet the guardian, Diana, who joins them. And then...

Diana: Let's go to Sika-Kandarec! But... you haven't met Désiré, the guardian of the Tower of Mercury?

Cydric: Yes, but the curse turned him into an icicle.

Kaisa: There was nothing we could do.

Alex: But it's okay.

Kaisa: That's right, you're here. We don't need any more Water Adepts.

Diana: Right, let's go!

They set off for Sika-Kandarec. On the way, Kaisa reverts to sand and Diana confesses her curse: she has become a vampire! Cydric replies that it's nothing to worry about.

Cydric: After all, being a vampire isn't as bad as being a werewolf!

After this conversation, they arrive at Sika-Kandarec.

Cydric (whose voice changes): No! It's getting dark!

Diana: What?

Cydric: It's... the... full moon!

Alex: Oh no!!!

Cydric's turning into a rabid werewolf!

Alex: We have to fight him! Diana...

Diana (whose eyes become devouring): Ah... I smell fresh blood!

Alex: DIANA!

"She's a bloodthirsty vampire again! I'll have to fight them..."

Chapter 6: Alex (and Kaisa?) vs Diana and Cydric!

Diana (who was at a much higher level than Cydric and Kaisa): FLARE STROM!

Cydric: RAY!

Receiving these attacks, Alex drops the bag containing Kaisa. It goes into a puddle.

Alex: GLACIER!

Diana: HEALING AURA!

They recover 100 HP! "If they're healing all the time, it's going to be hard to beat them!"

Cydric: WHRILWIND!

"Good thing they don't have Dijinnis... oh no!!!! Diana has one!" Meanwhile, Kaisa returns to normal and comes across a small creature.

Creature: Hi, I'm Gravity.

Kaisa: ?

Gravity: I'm a Venus Dijinn!

Kaisa: Ah, in that case...!

Gravity: I help you in combat! My power is to freeze an enemy with the force of gravity.

Kaisa (who sees Alex getting...) : Quick, get inside me!

Gravity goes inside her and Kaisa goes to help Alex.

Diana: FLARE!

A Dijinn emerges from within her and bombards him with flames.

Kaisa: Not so fast!!! You may have a Dijinn, but I have one too! GRAVITY!

Diana is paralyzed!

Alex: Great! Did you just find him?

Kaisa: Yes. Now let's take care of Cydric.

Alex: That won't be difficult. He doesn't have any Dijinns.

Kaisa: I've got a plan to avoid hurting them.

Thus she uses Gravity to paralyze them both, and when the effect wears off, she does it again... all night long. The following day...

Diana and Cydric: We're so sorry.

Diana: I shouldn't have used my Dijinn.

Kaisa: I have one!

Cydric: So do you. This isn't fair!

???: Hey, do you want a Dijinn from Jupiter?

Cydric: Uh, yes.

???: Then I'll join you! My name is Pixie. I block enemies' powers.

Pixie showed up next and Cydric happily pulled him inside.

Chapter 7: Granny and preparations for the center of the earth.

In Sika-Kandarec...

Granny: Welcome, my name is Granny and I know why you're here. You want to beat Vaiazak.

Diana: That's right.

Granny: In that case, you'll need to get ready!

She gave them miniaturized food and water, sleeping pills (Granny: The trip will last several months and the only way to fight boredom is to sleep.) and three parachutes.

Kaisa: One's missing!

Granny: I'm sorry, but you'll have to become sand.

Kaisa: Damn!

Granny: The chasm over there leads to the center of the earth. All you have to do is jump.

Kaisa becomes sand again. Alex, Cydric and Diana grab their parachutes and jump into the abyss.

Chapter 8: Long descent and defeat!

The descent lasted a long time. At first, our friends told each other stories to pass the time (Alex enjoyed this game. He could talk about Mya and Isaac and Felix's adventure with the Elemental Lighthouses). After that, they used sleeping pills. And when they ran out, they waited... After several months of waiting, they arrived at the center of the earth.

Alex: Vaiazak is going to die!

They find themselves in front of a castle. They immediately go inside and find themselves in front of Vaiazak. (In the throne room.)

Vaiazak: I see you've made it here alive. That's quite a feat, since I thought I'd killed all the Adepts. Too bad. In any case, you can't do anything against my secret weapon!

Cydric: What weapon? Oh! I... Alex, we're not going to make it!

Alex: Why do you say that?

Cydric: Because... I heard his thoughts. And I know what weapon he's talking about... Tell me, Mya is blonde with blue eyes and she dresses like a boy?

Alex: Yeah, but you know all that. (Knowing what he meant.) OH NO!!!!

Vaïazak laughed and left the room. Alex, Cydric and Diana see a young girl enter. Her eyes were glassy and Alex immediately recognized her.

Alex: MYA!

Diana: That's... Mya!?

Mya: Yes, it's me, (She draws her sword.) and you're all going to die!

Cydric: Mya wait! It's true you don't know us, but you know Isaac!

Mya: !

Diana: And Garet, Ivan and Mia!

Mya: I... I don't know them!!!

She goes on the attack.

Alex: We can't reason with her anymore. We'll have to... defeat her?

Cydric: That's an impossible task. But we'll try!

They fought like hell (forgetting about Kaisa!), but Mya was too strong. No one could beat Alchemy. So they died...

Chapter 9: What's become of Kaisa?

Mya didn't react to what she had done. She put away her sword and was just about to leave when she noticed the bag of sand. "Why did they drag that sand all the way out here?" She pulled out the Water of Life. She was about to bring one of the heroes back for an explanation! Unfortunately, she drops it and it falls on the sand! Kaisa becomes human again!

Mya: I'm going to beat you!

Kaisa (who knew she couldn't beat her): Don't hurt me! I'm your friend!

Mya: That's not true! Mya has never had any friends!

Kaisa: Mya? Are you... the real Mya? If you're the real Mya, you wouldn't have beaten Alex! He's one of your friends! Like Isaac...

Mya: Is-Isaac?

Kaisa (who remembers Alex telling her about it on the way down (even in sand, this information had managed to stick in her memory.)): Yes Isaac! He lives in Vale, IN VALE, the little village...

Mya: Va-le?

Kaisa (seeing that she reacts): And Garet, your husband! He also lives in Vale! He's Isaac's best childhood friend! A Fire Adept, like Jenna, another friend!

Mya: A-Adept?

Kaisa: Yes, Adept! All your friends are Adepts! Earth, Fire, Water and Wind Adepts! They control the elements with their thoughts!

Mya (getting nervous): Uh...

Kaisa: And you're an Adept! Like me and those you killed! Would you like your father, Lord Hammet, to learn that his beloved princess has killed her friends?

Mya (whose nervousness is increasing): I...

Kaisa: Ah, didn't you know you were a princess? I see... PRINCESS ADIMYA KILLED HER OWN FRIENDS!

Mya: No!

Kaisa: ISAAC, GARET, IVAN, MIA, FELIX, JENNA, SHEBA AND PIERS! ALL KILLED!!!!

Mya : NNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! THAT'S NOT TRUE!!!

She falls unconscious.

Kaisa: Mya...?

Mya: Mmmmm... what happened?

Kaisa: You killed Alex!

Mya: What!!! I've been controlled! I... I must right my wrongs.

She brought Diana, Cydric and Alex back to life. They tell her what's going on.

Mya: He's going to pay dearly for doing this to me!

Chapter 10: Vaiazak defeated.

Mya goes to find Vaiazak. She's in a fury! Five minutes later, she returns with the crystals, all the while saying she's slaughtered Vaiazak. Our heroes teleport back to the surface of the earth. There, the Guardians of their respective Towers return the Crystals, and peace is restored to their world. Alex and Mya return home through the Stargate.

Epilogue.

Back in her own world, Mya is delighted to discover that her friends remember her again. Thus she tells Garet that she is now ready... for a child.
