    Chapter 1

                The beginning

.... At last...the birthday of Princess Garnet. It is night here at Alexandria castle. We have been waiting till the show "I want to be your canary" shows. Standing to the right of me is Steiner of course. He seems to be excited about this and then the show has begun. I was impressed but when I saw Garnet I see that she seemed sad...I didn't know why.

Chapter 2

Finding princess Garnet

Then I saw that the princess was leaving to her room I followed she told me, “Sir Gust may I be in my room privately?" I replied, “But, Princess I have been sworn to protect you and...." Garnet replied, “Gust, just this once now." I think...and said,"alright than but be back soon." I went back where the Queen was with Steiner and...Beatrix. After a while it hit me the princess isn't back. When I was going to inform the Queen, Zorn and Thorn came. Beatrix came and said, “What do you want Zorn and Thorn?" Zorn and Thron both replied, “We need to talk to the Queen cause.... the princess is IN DANGER!" Beatrix said,” I see...I'll see what I can do." Beatrix talked to the Queen and the Queen replied, “Captain Steiner, Beatrix, and Gust find Princess Garnet and bring her back to me at once!" We all replied, "Yes, your majesty!" and so we searched. Steiner went to the west tower and I went to the east tower outside of the castle. When I was at the top I saw Princess Garnet being chased by a guy with a monkey tail. I said, "HALT!" in front of the guy but he smiled and jumped over me and when I looked at my back Princess Garnet jumped off the tower hanging on something sliding down along with that guy. I saw Steiner doing the same thing going after the princess. I watched him.... then "BAM" got hit at the ship.

I followed them at the ship then Steiner came along with his Pluto knight. The door was locked and I heard someone talking. I said, “Princess?" Steiner has said,"HEY open up this door!" When Steiner and I bust the door opened I saw nobody here but another door and it was also locked. When we bust the door opened nobody was there except an opened hatch. Steiner commanded the Knight to jump in there.... but..... he said he is stuck. So Steiner got furiously angry and left to find another way..so did I. When we found one we went down and,"Aha!" Steiner said. “Give us back the Princess or you will be sliced!"

Chapter 3

The fight

Steiner and I have engaged in battle. And then somehow they won.... probably because of Steiner. Well cause he broke the fake knights of Pluto's armor (known as Blank) and a lot of oglops came. Then the princess and the guy escape to the upper level at the stage. When we popped out a black mage named Vivi is chased by 2 Pluto Knights. Then Steiner commanded,” Attack those thieves!" When we fought the 2 knights of Pluto chickened out so we lost again. But the ship started moving.... its escaping! Meanwhile Queen Brahne commanded to attack the ship and last they fired a Bomb which me and Steiner didn't noticed how can I be so dumb!? When the bomb exploded we no the ship survived just about. And we left Alexandria. Then the ship became out of control and began to crashing down into a forest named.... Evil Forest.....

Chapter 4

Evil Forest

I made it out okay except the ship didn't. Then I noticed that the Princess, Steiner, and Vivi is gone. So this guy with a monkey tail named Zidane came out of the ship (looks beat up) and agreed to search with me. When we found them the Princess has been captured by a monster prison cage. When we fought we almost killed it but it escaped with the Princess I feel so ashamed I believe Steiner felt this also. We 2 began to lose hope of where to search her but suddenly that beast is back and captured Vivi! When Vivi is captured he cast fire on it Zidane, Steiner, and me fought. So far we killed the little fella beast but it spewed seeds or venom on Vivi and Steiner. Luckily Zidane and I dodge it. Then later Zidane carried Vivi while I carried fat ol Steiner yeesh. Marcus met us and gave Zidane and me a medicine for Vivi and Steiner so we took both of them in separate rooms. Later I chatted with Baku and Blank they were both okay...in a way. Then for a while Vivi and Steiner felt better and for a few minutes we started searching for the Princess. When we traveled we saw a spring and something there drinking it. I said,"Hey thats a moogle!" Zidane says, “Of course it is..uh...." I said, “Gust, the names Gust." Zidane says,"Ah well hi then soo...who is that big guy's name there...Rusty?" I laughed a bit not to make Steiner mad but,"WHAT!! RUSTY! ITS STEINER ALDEBERT!! NOT RUSTY!" Steiner burst out like mad. Then I saw the little moogle ran away. I said,"Yeesh you don't have to get that mad." Steiner says," WHAT! If he didn't captured the Princess we wouldn't be talking to you Thief and in this mess!!" Later we drank from the spring and head straight forward to a cave."Woah! What is that?!" I said. Zidane says, “Its the master get him!" As we fought I got swung back from its tail. Then Blank came to help us. I felt like he was showing off. When I took a slash with my Oblivion sword it died. Then Blank gave the Princess the medicine then Lots I mean LOTS of plant spider kind came so we ran for our lives.

Chapter 5

The Escape

We ran and ran then Zidane stopped I said, “What are you doing we must escaped quick." Zidane replied, “I know.....its like the whole forest is going after us." I said (running),"What do you mean by that?" When I looked back Zidane is gonna get caught by those fiends. I went back to help but Blank pushed Zidane and he got caught. He grabbed something and throws it far. Zidane couldn't catch it so I tried to get it and I did. I cast fire as much of I can but no use I have to keep running. Zidane is getting close to me and we can see the exit but many of these thorn like long stem came trying to hit us or kill us. We ran as fast as we can and jumped...........and we made it. Zidane said,"BLANK, BLANK!..... that bastard! ARGH" I can tell he was mad I felt sorry for him so I look at the road above and saw nothing but trees, plains mountains and mist so much mist. "Why did it get this misty?" I said.

Chapter 6

The journey ahead

I said to Prin....I mean Garnet that I am sorry that I failed you and said please forgive me. She did forgave me and a moogle came and said, “Mind if you rest in this tent Kupo!" I didn't mind but Steiner got mad at Zidane and finally stopped at Garnet's command. During the next morning we went ahead to a cavern called Ice Cavern.

Chapter 7

Ice Cavern

When we came at Ice cavern we fought fiends and all but when we got close to the end.... I hear a bell tinkling and I, Steiner, Zidane, Garnet, and Vivi got knocked out.

Chapter 8

Black Waltz#1 and Sealion

When I woke up I saw that Zidane is gone then I heard some fighting above. When I went there I saw it a sealion and Black Waltz. Zidane fighting both of them I angered the sealion and made him attack me. I use fire and a slash with my fire sword magic. Zidane is doing much better than me with his mage masher weapon. Then I took the Sealion to the ground and its dead along with Black Waltz. Then Zidane and me went back and saw Vivi, Steiner, and Garnet waking up. So we went on out of Ice Cavern.

Chapter 9

Village of Dali

"Hmmmm its too peaceful here." I said. Zidane said lets take a rest over there at an Inn." So I agreed and the 5 of us slept. I woke up along with Vivi and Steiner so I took a look around the place. As I went back in the Inn, Zidane and Garnet is gone. Then I searched for Vivi everywhere gone too. The only person I found is..... well.... Steiner. So I have nothing to do but just stayed where Steiner was. When I heard the news of being an air ship heading to Alexandria I took a look including Steiner. But then Steiner and I saw a big barrel I examined it until I saw Steiner trying to poke it I said, “STEINER WAIT!! THAT MIGHT BE....." "POKE"......"OOOOWWWWWW!!!" I was confused.... or just.... I might've gone crazy but then Zidane popped out and said, “Why you! ARGH YOU ALMOST KILLED DAGGER AND POKED ME INSTEAD!!!" Later Zidane said, “By the way Steiner is this air ship going to Lindblum?" Steiner said, “Yes, yes it is." I knew he was lying I think Zidane noticed too except "Princess you will come back to Alexandria at once!" said an Unknown voice. When I looked back I couldn't believe my eyes......

Chapter 10

Black Waltz#2

Zidane said,” What are you doing here?!" Black Waltz said, “I have come here to take the princess to Alexandria." Zidane said,"Oh yeah!? Well try it!" Black Waltz said, “Foolish boy..... resistance is futile now Princess come back but first I will kill these fellows first it won't be long." So we battled Black Waltz#2 again. Garnet casting cure on us and me, Zidane, Ru..... I mean Steiner, and Vivi fought Black Waltz#2. It wasn't that easy like last time but we won pretty easily. So we boarded the ship and head for Lindblum or is it Alexandria.

Chapter 11

The return of Waltz

As we boarded the ship I saw many of Black Mages like Vivi except different. I went up at the main deck along with Zidane and we met Steiner there. Well I didn’t do much but just look at the scene out there…. Until the ship moved and I felled back. I didn’t know what happened but then I saw Zidane. He is turning and bringing us to Linblum. Steiner angry at him like always….. but then I saw something coming…… it was Black Waltz #3. I said, “Man! Haven’t you bugged us enough?!” Black Waltz#3 casts thundaga on me and I got hurt real bad. But then I got to my feet and started to charge at Black Waltz but the other Black Mages started to protect us or something. But then Black Waltz destroyed them like dust. I saw the terror…… I looked at Vivi….he looked real sad…..Then I looked at Black Waltz. Then I screamed out loud and charged at him even Vivi, Zidane, and Steiner. Dagger flew the ship to Lindblum this time. It was a long harsh battle and I couldn’t hold on much longer. Then Vivi went into Trance he casts his magics twice now at Black Waltz. Finally we defeated him and saw Black Waltz flying to an air ship vehicle and saw 2 people there. Then looks like Black Waltz got control of it and headed straight for us.

Chapter 12

The challenge

“Zidane the South Gate is gonna close on us we can’t get through and Black waltz is chasing us!!” I said. Zidane said, ”We will break through the South Gate!” As we went in the South Gate, Black Waltz is right next to us seems like he is gonna casts thundaga on us! But Vivi deflected it and it hit Black Waltz’s vehicle meaning to explode. We went out of the South Gate safely but Black Waltz’s vehicle exploded and got squished  between the closing gates and I saw the last of Black Waltz…… or is it….

Chapter 13

Lindblum

As we arrived in Lindlum the place was huge!! But we were stopped by the 2 guards except someone known as Dagger’s uncle. He welcomed us and showed us the Regent Cid. I didn’t know why but when the regent appeared but……he’s……an……oglop and Steiner punched him (Don’t ask me why) in the face. Then after the meeting I waited in the bedroom till everyone came back at the bedroom. I heard The Festival Of Hunt is about to begin! I decided to join in it and I also heard Freya has came back to do The Festival Of Hunt. Now the hunt began….. 5 minutes till the hunt is over! I started pretty well I just got 225 points but Freya has 295 points! I saw Vivi being chased by a Fang but I felt sorry for the little guy. Then I fought more of these fiends……2 minutes left! Then I met Zagnol….. yeesh what luck. Then I just defeated him leading 343 points! But Freya got 375 points. I wandered how is she getting so much points so quickly? Zidane has 327 points! 1 minutes and 30 seconds! Its now a tie! 387 points has Freya and Gust! The time is getting rough for me to beat Freya. 30 seconds left! Zidane know has 380 points! As I thought their might be 3 ties but their has to be 1 winner. The Festival is OVER!!

Chapter 14

Face off

It is now a tie, me and Freya. The Regent said the 2 persons fight each other and whoever wins well wins the Festival Of Hunt! We battled at the Regent’s room. It was an impressive fight. Freya had got me good. When she started to finish me off a soldier known as an Burmecian Soldier came to us. ”What’s going on!?” I said. As I listened I heard that Burmecia was being under attack by “pointy hats”. I decided to help but Dagger said to me and Steiner that we leave for Alexandria and put sleeping weed at Zidane’s, Vivi’s, Freya’s, and the Regent’s food. When we did that we left at south gate to go to Alexandria.

Chapter 15

South Gate

Then me and Steiner hiked up to South Gate and we were checked to see if we were working for the Gate repair. We both had to do some stuff to clear the alley and make room for Dagger. We shouldn’t have put those pickles in the bag but we had to do it. Then I overheard that Dagger will be changing (well cause she smells like the pickles) her clothes for now so I didn’t watch except Steiner was guarding the other way where Dagger was changing except he didn’t see it so we went off. When we went on the train we are going to Alexandria just a bit. We had to stop at another station to go there. Then I heard a familiar voice….I took a peep outside and saw them….Cinna and Marcus. Glad to see them well and escaped Evil Forest in one peace. It was a coincidence but Steiner wasn’t happy as usual. Dagger talked to him and Steiner grunt and obeyed. Marcus told us he was looking for an item called Super Soft to cure Blank at Evil Forest. So we went to Treno instead of Alexandria.

Chapter 16

Onward to Treno

As we rode to Treno, Cinna wasn’t coming with us. He told us what had happened to them except something happened we took a look outside and saw him alive….. Black Waltz. “Dude! I have it with you!” I said. But it looked broken can’t move right or speak right a bit. So we fought him yet again. This time I was ready I dodged his move (cause he is slow last time) and we killed him easily. So we moved on to Treno but I wondered, Black Waltz……. What does he want to take the princess to Alexandria? For what? We are taking her to Alexandria…… I don’t feel good about this…. wonder how Zidane is doing…..

Chapter 17

Treno

Now we spread out except Steiner didn’t noticed it till later. (how dumb) We searched for an item called SuperSoft to revive Blank. But then I saw Steiner and Dagger going into the inn so I followed….. I didn’t know why but we rested there then later….came Marcus and Baku. Then after the talk of where the SuperSoft is we went back at the inn. Then I heard something and said, ”Who goes there?!” Then I saw a guy with a long nose……Then I recognize him I said, ”Doctor Tot! it’s a coincidence to see you again Doctor!” “Ah Gust, Steiner, and Princess it’s a pleasure meeting you all hear so what do you need or talk about now?” said Doctor Tot. We all answered to him. “SuperSoft eh?…..well Princess have you seen a tall tower here? Go there later on and you’ll find the door unlocked.” Said Doctor Tot. When we got there we told him where he is. Then Marcus stole it and in a bad manner way but as usual Steiner got mad…..ugh. Later on I said, ”How are we going back to Alexandria now?” Tot said to us to go to that hatch at the upper right. So we followed to a room called Gargan Roo.

Chapter 18

Gargan Roo

Tot told us to do this and that except he doesn’t know where it is so we have to foind it ourselves. As we did pull the final switch and came the ride but I found something strange what it is…….It’s a Gargarant!! I said to Tot, “Doctor, we are supposed to ride this thing!?” He said yes. (I should’ve known) As we went on the Gargarant we were encountered by a Ralvu Rahva. We almost killed it but it escaped. Then we went again to Alexandria. When we were going to meet the Queen we saw gates that went up in front of us and back of us! Then Thorn and Zorn appeared. Steiner said to them to open the gate up. (like they’ll listen) Then Dagger was being brought up by Alexandrian soldiers to the Queens chamber. As for me, Steiner, and Marcus we were knocked out by Alexandrian Soldiers.

Chapter 19

The Escape and Encounter

Me, Steiner, and Marcus are locked up in a cage how ironic. Marcus thought up a plan. So we followed his plan and made it out. Of course we have to engage the Alexandrian soldiers. Once we were on our way outta here I saw some bubble like things. All of us saw Zidane, Vivi, and Freya seem to be in one peace. Zidane told me that we gotta save Dagger quickly in 15 minutes. While he told me that I thought about the Queen……. Marcus told us that he is gonna save his “bro” with the item. We fought all the way to look for the princess so far we passed the throne and head forward dow the stairs, but we turned up with Zorn and Thorn. I was really getting angry at Zorn and Thorn for this and so we all focused on 1 enemy but once we defeated Zorn, Thorn escaped from the battle. We got Garnet to safety at the throne but we end with Zorn and Thorn, and we were facing….her

Chapter 20

Beatrix

Seems like Zidane, Vivi, and Freya was ready to fight her.We were all doing…sorta well but she got our life points to 1 and weakened us really bad. Once the battle was over Beatrix saw Dagger lying on the couch unconscious and she realized that the Queen really meant it. We saw Beatrix curing Dagger with her magic alot til she awoke. Once we were on our way Beatrix and Freya was left behind. Once I looked back I saw that they are fighting a Bandersnatch. I heard Zidane calling so I left them to fight. Once we were going down the stairs we were caught by 2 bandersnatch.The fight was pretty easy for awhile. And seems like we have to fight the Black Mages also. We made it by luck except I decided to turn back to fight for what I know is right and Steiner turned back as well.

Chapter 21

The day the Queen died….

I know…I skip the part of what happened to us. It was a long story though..but lets continue. We heard that the Queen died by Bahamut…no Kuja. So it has finally came….Dagger now has control of the Kingdom now. Wonder what will happen now….

To Be Continued…
