TwilightXDawn/Awakening Story

"What do we have to protect anymore? Why more pain and suffering?! We lost our home, our family, what more can we fail to protect!?!" 
"Each other..."- Mai and Isaac's (respectively) argument on being the chosen ones. This is the 3rd and final story for the game TwilightXDawn. Unlike the previous 2 stories which focused on multiple different video game characters, this one has mostly original characters and only 1 major video game character (Jessica Albert of Dragon Quest VIII). 
==Chapter 1 (Awakening) ==
Following the events of Dawn (OVA), Hero, Isaac and Mai are left homeless after their village burned down. Isaac suggests going back and asking for the help of the two people who went into the sanctuary earlier. However, Mai is against it and the three decide to head out to the beach and await destiny.
As they head to the beach, they are suddenly attacked by a wild Rattata before getting saved by a random girl. 
This girl introduces herself as Jessica Albert, a Princess from another world. However, she currently doesn't know her way and is looking around for assistance in this world.
Isaac is unsure about trusting her following the fire of their hometown but the Hero accepts her into the party and she becomes an official member. She explains that she heard that some guys from their rival village may have been the ones to have burned their village and they head out.
Before they can though, they are attacked by a King Slime who Jessica neutralizes. After this battle, the discover that a lot of the monsters of specifically trying to attack them and eventually the team makes it to Aurora, which is currently under attack by an army of Slime...
The team of 4 get their attention and take them out before being captured by the towns people. They are held hostage in the jail of Aurora because the 3 children all come from Sol which is their rival village. At night time, a girl named Kylie sneaks into the jail and comforts the hero.
She states that the towns folks annually overreact but considering the recent volcanic activity in Carma has made everything much worse. Kylie leaves and Jessica asks if life is always this stupid in Carnia. Isaac rolls his eyes and they wait the night out.
The next day, they are given the challenge of either heading into the palace of no return or being used as decoys in their war. Jessica arrogantly chooses to head into the palace of no return while the 3 kids gaze in confusion.
They are immediately rushed into the palace where the doors are locked shut and they have to find their way out. As they search around the dungeon for a way out, they realize how it looks almost exactly how everything is outside.
The group traverses this darker version of the outside world where they discover someone standing in front of a doorway. He wears an all black attire and has a giant sword. They go and attack him only to be pushed away like insects. That is before Mai uses a secret weapon that she'd been holding onto. Her inner anger!!
She blasts away the mysterious man who only vanishes into thin air. After that, some mysterious gas forms into a generic moblin. However, it powers into a stronger form.
After killing it, Jessica discovers that as a team they have some serious potential. They defeat it and find a door that leads into nothingness. Isaac (Like a fool), jumps straight into it forcing the others to follow through.
Here, the hero wakes up in the middle of a pink land called Magicant.
He finds himself wandering through the land looking for answers where he is told to head to the castle where he shall meet up with Queen Mary.
He finds himself at Queen Mary's castle. She introduces herself and explains the situation and her request. Vaguely, she tells him to 7 fragments of lost time.
== Chapter 2 (Beyond and Above) ==
He wakes up and finds himself on the shore of a stream.
As he searches around, he notices a girl watching the waves on the beach. He runs over to her, however, she attacks him.
The hero manages to subdue her before she introduces herself as Terra. She explains that she keeps having these strange nightmares that keep bringing her back to the same places. The hero, though confused, asks her if she wants to join him and the others in their new quest to find the 7 fragments of lost time. She accepts and they run into the jungle behind the beach.
Here, they find Isaac, Mai and Jessica who were all unconscious. As they try and peace together what had happened in the previous chapter, a bunch of monsters comes through and attacks them. Terra is suddenly overwhelmed by a voice in her head and she collapses to the ground.
As they fight off the monsters, Terra slips away into a comatose state before vanishing all together. Confused, they look around for her until deciding that they won't be able to find her.
They head to a hidden underground dungeon that supposedly holds the first fragment. They enter and discover monsters eating the dead bodies of wanderers. They turn to the 4 next and a battle begins.
After killing them off, they find a rock and Mai realizes that something is under it. When they push the rock out of the way, they realize that there is a temple under the rock and head inside.
Queen Mary then tells the group that this is actually where the first of many fragments are and they shall find it at the end of the temple.
At the end of the temple, they are attacked by two flying monsters.
After they collect their first fragment, they are teleported to a room. Here, Queen Mary tells them to put the first fragment in a small hole that houses many more fragment pieces. Here, it is revealed that this piece is just one of many smaller ones that they have to collect to make up all 7.
After this, they are teleported back to Carnia where they find themselves in a town outside of a river (Twilia). Here, they get information on the recent eruptions of Doragon Mountain.
They also learn about Team Gaia and Team Rocket V2 who have been invading some of the other villages. They seem to be heading into the direction of Twilia to the worry of all the villagers.
Though reluctant, Jessica believes it'd be a really good idea to see what both teams are up to.
They meet up with the mayor (Who is busy handling the evacuation) who says it'll do no good to go after them, but he allows them to try and past the guards. 
Before they can go though, the mayors daughter takes note of the Hero and tells him to come back safely. She hands him a piece of rock that she found in the Mayors room. She says, "Think of it as a gift"
Isaac discovers that the piece of rock is actually a fragment that they need. They begin to head out to find Team Gaia's soldiers current location. However, they discover that they are all stationed outside of the town, ready to attack when necessary. 
Though unsure, Queen Mary tells the 4 that they can easily sweep past the two. She hands them the power of a weaker elemental crystal and they are all powered up. They charge towards Team Gaia #21, who were already stationed outside of the village in trenches, and quickly defeat them. However, they are nearly ambushed by Team Gaia #22 who were their to assist Team Gaia #21 if necessary. 
The 4 manage to barely break through the group (Due to their heavy abundance of Pokemon and slime) and quickly take them down. However, the leader of Team Gaia #21 reveals that he isn't done and releases his strongest monster: Phantasmurai (Wind Yo-Kai)
They barely manage to overcome it. Following this, the boss runs off and decides it'd be best to call in the leader.
Meanwhile, the leader of Team Gaia concludes that the kids aren't a threat and that #21 and #22 were just not trying hard enough.
== Chapter 3 (Balance) ==
The group eventually learns of the next fragments location: Somewhere in the desert.
Before they leave though, the Hero is given a kiss on the cheek from the mayors daughter for some reason.
As they head out to the desert in order to find their next fragment, they notice a giant tower in the middle of the desert. Their are soldiers surrounding the place, leading the group to realize that it must belong to Team Gaia, leading Jessica to ask the group to attack the tower.
Though conflicted, they go over their and discover that the base actually belong to Team Advanced Team Rocket (Or Team Rocket V2) who are rivals with Team Gaia.
Even then, they charge into the base and start mowing down soldiers and heading inside. After pushing through a lot of their defenses, they are given another message from Queen Mary who tells them that the base holds another fragment.
As they continue running through the base, they discover a weapon. This thing is actually a captured Gaia Stalker that Tam Rocket V2 struggled to reprogram. Since they couldn't get it, they decided to put it at one of their front doors to mow down anybody who would come down at them. 
The group struggles to take it down but manage to destroy it just in time. After which, they heal themselves and head to another room. In this room,
