It was rather easy finding the aetherium crystal. The crystal was blue and shined; it held ancient magical powers that I never have seen before. Nothing like this could be found in other worlds, it's a pity that there's not enough of it to take for myself.  It would have a made a great item to do synthesis with.

Through out the whole day, my right eye which was covered by my patch was bothering me.  It was sending waves of pain from my eye to the back of my head. I did not understand my condition so I was a little antsy from the pain.  I more easily break into my fits of sadistic rage when my partners bothered me. Sadly they are the ones to see this frightening side of me which I try to skillfully hide.

I was disappointed that none of my partners seem mature enough to handle this mission. Daryx was deadly scared of me and Vanex was just the mischievous type that would look out for himself even if the expense of others. His attitude is something I distaste, having seen that type of behavior before in my human past. If he wasn't a cute boy, I think I would have done something more than scolding.

Daryx took the crystal into hand and stared at it like it was a crystal ball like she was looking for a hidden image. I tapped her shoulder and calmly asked "What are you doing" Drayx looked at me like was the most frightening thing in the all the worlds combined.  I was surprised yet I did not show it. Was I that frightening? What is wrong with me today?

"Oh... Xi-Xiyum... I think I found what we were after!" Daryx said smiling, somewhat getting rid of her awkwardness. She turned around to look for the crystal, but Vanex had not surprising took the crystal when she wasn't looking. For a couple of seconds I thought Daryx was going to cry on me. Out of fear from getting a scolding she searched for were the crystal might be.

Vanex was foolishly playing with crystal, almost looking like it was going to be tossed over the edge. Daryx looked scared about that possibility of losing the crystal. I myself was getting slightly uptight with it. I will not go after the crystal if it went overboard; it was the waste of my energy and skills.

"Vanex! Give that back!" Daryx screamed at him, and acted just like a child. It was amusing to watch this little fight between my immature partners. "What you gonna do, ditz? Come take it away from me..." Vanex challenged. I scuffed at the boy's reaction; it was all too amusing and pitiful to watch.  

Daryx lunged at him, just as Vanex threw the crystal right into the blue sky.  She landed next to him and lunged forward once more, after the crystal she went. Using her powers, manipulating the air she managed to get the crystal. Her normally happy face was turned into glaring at Vanex. Returning to me she looked cheerful once more. "Look! I told you I found it!" she cheered. I said nothing in reply, only turned around and made a portal back to our base.
