9th Combo - [Dream]
Warnings: None.
Effects: A sense of excitement and determination. (Optional.)
"The first thing you need to know," Lloyd said, lifting a finger with the confidence of someone who knew what they were talking about. "Is how to fly."
"Is that so?" Dino looked half amused, half bewildered at the prospect. "Ahaha, I must admit, I have never flown before, Lloyd."
"Don't worry," Colette chipped in cheerfully. "It isn't as hard as it looks." The blonde Chosen effortlessly extended her wings, pink, sparkling things that seemed to glow with an ethereal light. She flapped them once, lifting into the air a few inches. "See? Come on, Dino. Just try!"
"Hmm..." A look of concentration crossed the Italian's face. Lloyd leaned forward, excited. A pair of wings spread out from his back, too, though his were red and didn't sparkle as much. Dino glanced at those wings, and his lips twitched again. "Red like tomatoes, Lloyd?"
Lloyd reacted instantly, throwing a pillow at the other boy's head. "Ew! No way!" Obviously expecting the reaction, Dino laughed and shielded his face. Lloyd swatted him again anyway, then huffed and dropped the pillow. "They're red for courage, not tomatoes."
A small gasp distracted them both, drawing their attention back to Colette. Her blue eyes were wide. "You did it!" She pointed behind Dino's back. "Oh, I'm so happy!"
Sure enough, a pair of translucent gold wings fluttered gently behind the young man. Dino twisted his head around so he could stare at the things with no small amount of amazement.
Lloyd cheered as he spotted them. "Great! Now we just have to fly to the Tower of Salvation in your world, Dino. Colette can show you how to be a Chosen of Mana, and I'll be the guardian angel. With three of us, there's no way Yggdrasill can win! Come on, let's go!" He took off, unable to contain himself.
Chuckling at their friend's enthusiasm, the two blonds shared a look. Then, grinning, they both took off, too, leaving a flurry of pink and gold feathers behind.

Lloyd stirs as the morning light hits his eyes, then yawns and rolls onto his side. The Dreamberry transmits for another few minutes, then shuts off, allowing the peaceful teen his sleep.
