Okay, so I’m at home, board to death. There’s nothing on TV, I’m too aggressive to hit the sack, and there’s nothing on the Internet. But then it hit me. I ran down to the basement, and I put in my favorite Playstation game: Final Fantasy IX. I put it in, and the weirdest thing happened. I was sucked into the game!
“Dude! This rocks!” I said out loud.
I was in a white room, where this robot voice told me to choose my status. I was thinking that this was just a dream, but I would make it a cool one if it were.

Boy did I make an entrance. The Tantalus dudes were done with the meeting on how they’re going to kidnap Princess Garnet, and I fell on the ground on my back!
“Hey! Where’d you come from?” Marcus cried.
“Oww… my back.” I said, and got up.
“You don’t look like anyone we know on the ship.” Cinna said.
“Gee, maybe that’s because I’m not some dodo on the Prima Vista.” I replied. From that moment, I could tell I wasn’t gonna be too popular.
“Well, what’s your name and why ARE you on the Prima Vista?” Baku asked.
“I’m Loleile, and I have no clue how I got on the Prima Vista.” I replied.
Blank was staring at me, and he was thinking some stuff about me. There were stuff I’m glad he didn’t say out loud, and stuff that I wouldn’t care if he said out loud. He thought:
Loleile, huh? Where does she come from?
Is she a thief like the rest of us?
What kind of girl had silver hair?
Is she a knight?
I hope she’s a fighter.
Maybe she is a knight, what with that fancy armor.
Hmm…
Loleile…
They told us the plan to get Princess Garnet and kidnap her. I shrugged as a sign to mean, “I don’t care, do what you want,” and I think they understood. Then, I asked Baku something I really wanted to ask. And we started a conversation.
“Hey Baku, can I be in Tantalus?”
“If you can find treasure, I’ll think about it.”
“I got something.”
“A pendent made of pure gold with a two-inch wide jewel in it! Now that’s treasure!”
“Awesome.”
“Okay, I’ll give you shot at it. Just hang with the guys, learn from them, and call me, Boss. Got it?”
“Gotcha, Boss!”
We arrived in the beautiful country and kingdom of Alexandria. It was better then when I saw it in the video game! I was out on the deck when Zidane came up to me. I remember saying to my sis how hot and sexy Zidane looked, and seeing him up close was a dream. He was even hotter, and bulkier, and a complete fox.
“First time in Alexandria, huh?” he asked.
“How’d you know?” I replied.
“I could tell, you looked excited and amazed.”
“Ha… yeah. That’s me.”
“Listen… Loleile. Are you part of Tantalus now?”
“Baku… I mean, the Boss is giving me a shot at it.”
“Cool. Just hang with me and the guys, and we’ll show you the ropes.”
“Thanks man.”
I walked inside the theater ship, and no sooner did I do that, I made the biggest mistake ever. I slammed into Ruby, one of the actresses on the theater ship.
“Hey! Why’d ya do that to me? Ya should at least say yer sorry!”
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.”
Ruby and I began to argue a bit, and right before both of us could attack each other, Blank and Zidane grabbed my arms and held me back. Cinna and Marcus held back Ruby.
We were both yelling horrible insults at each other that even shocked the guys. But both of us held our tongues when The Boss came in. He was staring at both of us.
“Will ya two damsels shut up or I’m really gonna get angry!” he snapped.
Zidane and Blank let me go. Ruby on the other hand was screaming on the top of her lungs while Cinna and Marcus where pulling her into another room.
“I feel so sorry for them.” I said, causing Zidane and Blank to burst out laughing. Then I began to laugh a little. We went walking over to the costume place, were I had a great idea. Zidane even got Baku to come and hear my greatest plan yet!
“Okay, so you guys are planning to drug the princess chic with a sleeping weed, then bag her, right? Right, but let’s get down to it, the place is loaded with the Knights of Pluto and the Alexandrian Soldiers. It ain’t gonna be no walk in the park. But to make a long story short, let’s break down to the main plot. With your permission, Boss, I’d dress up as a decoy. First I’ll dress up as an Alexandrian Soldier, just to hold up some major problems when you bag the chic. Then you guys head for the hills. I’ll then dress up as the princess chic, just to calm the butt-ugly queen down. Then when you guys start to head home, I’ll sneak out and get on. So what do ya say?”
Everyone stared at me like I spoke a different language or something. Then Baku smiled and said:
“Babe, you do know those were the most brilliant words I ever heard anyone say in a long time? You are definitely gonna be a Tantalus member, and you are definitely going to make this a lot easier for us. I allow the plan to go into motion!”
It was finally time to put the plan into action. I dressed up as the Alexandrian Soldier, and the Tantalus troupe got ready for the big act. I snuck out, and went straight up to where the royal seats were. But another Alexandrian soldier was in my spot. I grabbed hold of her by the hair, ripped off her helmet and threw as many punches as I could. Then I tied her up and threw her in a closet. I went up to where the queen was. The job was easy. All I had to do was just stand there like a zombie and not say a word until spoken to. In my head, I kept on saying to myself over and over,
This is going to rock the house. Tantalus forever!
Zidane and the other cool dudes made an awesome entrance. Fireworks, sparklers, music… something you’d never see at your average performances. Then the show started.
Infront of me was General Beatrix, on the left side of the ugly queen was on of the Knights of Pluto, and the Pluto Knights’ Captain Aldebert Steiner. I’ll have to admit this; Queen Brahne was no beauty. She was so ugly a pimple the size of Manhattan would be more pretty compared to her. She looked like some fat lady and something the cat dragged in.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you because, “I warned you.”
Beatrix looked towards me, and examined my face. Then she stared at me with the most observant eyes I ever saw before. It looked like I was a spider and she’s about to reel in for the kill.
“What’s your name, soldier?” she asked. Oh boy…
“N-Nicole, ma’am.” Nicole?
“Nicole! You’re supposed to be at the base. I’ll deal with you later. But where’s your sister?”
“She said that she had…” Oh God…
“Had what?”
“She had…well… it’s a very harsh point, sir, umm, ma’am, I MEAN SIR!” Oh jeez.
“Whatever. Just stay here and keep guard, and DON’T raise your voice to me again.”
“Yes ma’am.”
After we both gave a solute to each other, I gave a sigh of relief. I thought that my neck was saved, but both Steneir and Princess Garnet stole a look at me. I just stood up straight in a military form, and didn’t care about anything at that time. Then I thought to myself:
I hope Zidane and Blank have better luck then this.
Garnet left her seat, and only one thing came to my mind when she left. She was going to get dressed into her orange body suit and her white and pink hood. Then she was gonna head for the hills!
“Oh no you don’t!” I murmured under my breath, and took off. Not Beatrix or anyone noticed my disappearance, and I took down the hall by the stairs. I took off my helmet then. I heard voices, and I looked over the balcony. It was Zidane and Blank dressed up as the Pluto Knights.
“Zidane! Blank! Up here! She in the room!” I shouted quietly at them. They heard me and looked up.
“Thanks, Loleile!” Zidane said, and ran up. Then I hopped off and landed on my feet.
“I have to sneak into the ship to dress up as Garnet. Do you know where the wigs are, Blank?” I asked Blank.
“In a cabinet over the princess gowns and under the sword hanging on the wall.” Blank replied.
“Thanks. I’ll catch ya later.” I said and ran off. I made it in the ship, and found the wigs. There was one that was exactly like Garnet’s hair. I slipped it on, and when Zidane and Blank went chasing after Garnet, I snuck into the royal rooms. There, I put on Garnet’s gown, shoes and tiara. I took her purse to hide my armor and clothes.
I snuck back into my seat next to the ugly queen. I kinda had to bring down my mood a bit, like how Garnet does. I looked exactly like the princess, and not anyone noticed anything different. But Steiner had to leave his seat to go on patrol or something.
I guess I had to watch the show. Marcus, Cinna, Baku and even Ruby were doing an awesome job. What a great show, but I tried not to smile or comment. After a half an hour, three people came up from the floor of the stage. I couldn’t help myself. I jumped up and looked from the balcony.
~~FLASHBACK~~
Back with Zidane, he was with Garnet, chasing her all over the place. Then they reached the tower, and Garnet stood on the edge. She just stared down at him, and smiled.
After a minute at smiling at him, she dropped from the tower, and went swinging on a rope with multicolored flags on it. Then Zidane started swinging too!
I saw the two, and they went swinging into the area were the musicians were playing music. Then he chased her into the ship and down into the stairs. She stopped there. It was a relief for Zidane, and I guess it was a time for both of them to take a breather. If that were me, Garnet would’ve gotten away!
“Well, it looks like you’ve made up your mind.” Zidane said.
“Do you… do you work on this ship?” Garnet asked.
Aww darn… I guess she figured it out. Zidane thought.
“As you’ve no doubt suspected… the truth is… I’m actually…” Garnet took off her hood, then said:
“Princess Garnet Til Alexandros, heir to the thrown of Alexandria. I have a favor to ask of you…” she grabbed hold of Zidane’s hands and said,
“I wish to be kidnapped… right away!”
Zidane smiled.
“Well, then Your Highness… I shall hearby do my best to kidnap you.” He replied.
Then Cinna appeared threw the next door, and they raced into an escape hatch threw the engine room and into a room under the stage. But then Steiner arrived. Then Blank raced in and shouted,
“EAT THIS, RUSTY!”
Then he threw a package of oglops at Steiner, causing Zidane and Garnet to escape. But Steiner raced after them! Zidane and Garnet went on a trap door, and Steiner went on another one, but they made it up.
~~END OF FLASHBACK~~
There on the stage, was Zidane, Garnet and Steneir! How cool was that. I sat back in the chair with a smile. But then the part where Marcus stabbed Cornelia (played by Garnet) made Brahne burst into tears.
Then, two Pluto Knights were chasing a small black mage… it was Vivi! How cool was that? But then Vivi shot fire at them, but it got caught onto Garnet’s hood! She ripped it off, and Brahne noticed her! Then she shot and me.
“YOU’RE NOT MY GARNET!” she screamed, ripping off the wig and crown on my head. My silvery hair fell, and even Beatrix and the soldiers were shocked!
“That I’m not, your Royal Ugliness!” I snapped. I leapt off the balcony and landed on some noble guy. Then I ran towards the stage barefoot. Leaping on, Zidane pulled me up and we raced to protection.
While escaping, I put on my regular clothes and armor, then raced out by Zidane, Vivi and Garnet.
“ZIDANE! HEADS UP!” I screamed. Brahne was shooting huge metal spears at us and then a huge bomb! I tackled Garnet and Zidane, and we took cover from the blast. It blew up and I thought that my life was going to be cut short. But then the smoke faded and we escaped Alexandria.
Everyone escaped okay, but the Prima Vista was wasted. Only God knows how far we can make it.
“WE’RE GONNA CRASH!” Cinna screamed out. The Prima Vista sailed over a huge forest, then crashed. Zidane, Steneir, Vivi and Garnet were thrown off by the impact. I on the other hand jumped off and was a little injured from it. Nothing but a bruise, a nearly broken arm, a couple of screwed up ribs and a sprained ankle. I somehow landed on my stomach, and was surprised I even made it. I heard rustling, and opened a cascade eye.
It was Zidane! He
was a bit busted up, but he was okay. He then ran over towards me, and picked
me up. I wasn’t being carried; I just leaned on him until my ankle was cool.
We made it to the Prima Vista, and found Cinna there. He was talking to some of the musicians on the ship.
“Zidane! Loleile! I’m surprised you two made it. I can’t believe you two jumped off! You two are nuts, ya know that?” he said when he saw us.
“Actually, Zidane was thrown off by the impact. I was the one who jumped off and nearly killed myself.” I replied.
“Well then you’re the crazy one.” Cinna replied.
“That figures.” I replied.
Then I took out some dinner rolls I stole with some butter, and us three ate ‘em. I guess I was going to be liked, but I didn’t want to ruin Zidane’s upcoming relationship with Garnet. I kind of thought Blank and Marcus were pretty cute. Okay, let’s cut the stupid crush crap. Zidane gulped down his rolls, then he talked to Cinna for a little bit.
“So what are you guys doing?” he asked.
“Look’n for the princess. Can’t find her anywhere.” Then I smirked and slapped Zidane on the back.
“No problem. Zidane and I’ll find her.” I replied. Zidane smiled at me.
“Yeah! Let’s go, Loleile!” he said, and we ran off. Cinna repeatedly called out after us:
“YOU TWO ARE NUTS! YOU KNOW THAT?”
Zidane and I ran out into the forest. The floor was ankle high water when we ran out. The entire forest was very unique. I never saw a forest like this before. It was like the jewel in the crown.
“I don’t know why they call this place ‘Evil’ Forest. It’s too beautiful, and actually very nice looking.” Zidane said. But even though I agreed, I know better.
“I agree, but if you’ve forgotten, the prettiest flower might turn out as the deadliest. We should find Garnet and Vivi, and then head for the hills.” I replied. Nodding to my opinion, we both raced to the higher part out of the water.
When we made it there, a huge and giant monster had Garnet trapped in it!
“What the hell is that?” Zidane cried out. We joined up with Steiner, who was about to attack.
“Release the princess at once!” he snapped.
“Yeah! Like it’s really gonna listen to YOU!” Zidane and I replied sarcastically.
The three of us were us were about to strike, but then something happened. As if a huge wave of power came flowing threw the air, it made it’s way to Zidane. And then a bright magenta light covered Zidane’s entire body.
“Alright Zidane! You’ve got Trance power on your side!” I shouted.
We battled the creature, but it escaped! We were looking around, and it hit me. The monster was going to come back and get Vivi! Only a picture in my brain came to me with the monster having Vivi.
“WATCH OUT VIVI!” I screamed. I raced and slammed into him, causing the monster to get its cage onto me!
“LOLEILE!” Zidane hollered.
“Oh no!” Vivi cried.
“LET ME GO! HELP ME GUYS!” I shouted.
Vivi was blasting the monster with his black magic fire attacks. But the monster was absorbing my energy to get stronger, and then he escaped! Then he came back and caught Vivi! While Steiner and Zidane were swinging their swords at the monster, Vivi shot a fire blast, and both Zidane and Steiner hacked away with the swords. Finally the creature died, and he crawled out.
“Whew… thanks guys.” He said.
“No prob, kid.” Zidane said, but then the monster released a green ooze, and while Zidane jumped out of the way, Steiner and Vivi inhaled it!
“Pr-Princess…” Steiner said, before fainting. Zidane made Steiner lean on his back, and then he threw Vivi ontop of Steiner’s back.
While Blank was helping Vivi, and while Marcus was helping Steiner, Zidane was arguing with the Boss. He refused to save both Garnet AND me!
“Forget it! Creatures born out of the Mist are crawling everywhere.” Baku said.
“So what? There’s nothing we can’t handle!” Zidane replied.
“But what about the wounded Zidane?”
“We can take them with us!”
“With the monsters out there? Trust me, we go out there and we’ll get wasted. We’re not moving until everyone recovers. YOU BETTER NOT STEP ONE FOOT OFF THE SHIP! YOU HEAR ME?”
“Grr… damn!”
“My boys come before a princess. It’s too bad.”
“But Loleile’s our first Tantalus sister!”
“Don’t get me wrong! I love Loleile like I love you guys, but we can’t risk it right now! All we can do is hope for the best!”
“I can’t believe you’re abandoning them! You’re nothing but a coward! Grr… DAMNIT!” Zidane screamed.
Running down the stairs, he was filled with rage. He stormed into the main hall, then ran into Blank. But Blank looked a little down.
“What’s up?” Zidane asked after cooling down.
“It’s… nothing.”
“Is it because of Garnet?”
“No…”
“It’s Loleile, isn’t it?”
“I…I don’t know…”
“I’ll get her back for you. You can count on it.”
“Why do you always have to play the hero?”
“I don’t know, it’s a curse, I know it. But I can’t just sit around knowing my two friends are in danger. Especially when they’re both girls!”
“Whatever. I’ll keep it secret, and I’m coming with you.”
“Sure, man. I’m sure it’ll make both you and Loleile happy.”
The two friends took a map, some seed remover medicine, and then they gathered their group. It was Zidane, Blank, Steiner and Vivi. The forest was getting spooky, but they had to do what they had to do.
Finally, they found us. Garnet was out, and I had some of the seed stuff in me, but I chopped both of us free and went to attack.
“LOLEILE! GARNET!” Zidane hollered.
“ZIDANE! BLANK! I HAVE SOME OF THE SEEDS IN ME!” I shouted.
“CATCH!” Blank shouted and threw me a small bottle of the seed stuff.
“THANKS BLANK!” I shouted back after drinking it. I threw Garnet to Zidane, and while joining the others, we battled the Forest Keeper. With Zidane and Blank’s fighting skills, Vivi’s black magic, Steiner’s sword work and my eidolons, we were unstoppable!
A poisonous stem with thorns on it was heading towards Blank, and I saw it. I ran, jumped up and sliced that sucker right infront of the dude’s face!
“Good one!” Blank said.
“Don’t mention it!” I said with a smile.
Finally, we blasted that sucker and he was down and out! But then the entire place was filled with its spawn! They were like pray mantises gone wrong!
I raced out of there, calling my pals to hurry it up. They raced after me, but then the entire forest was chasing us.
“Blank!” I screamed and he ran up to me.
“Yeah?” He said while running.
“If anything happens, please don’t leave me! Promise me you won’t!”
“I promise you, I will never leave you!”
Zidane and the others met up with up, and we went racing for our lives. The forest was being petrified, and turning into stone. Zidane was almost caught by a monster, but I grabbed his wrist and flung him out of the monster’s reach. Blank did the same for me, and I thought I’d lose him when he did that.
But then, Zidane was really close to being caught again, and Blank jumped in the way, getting caught himself! He threw Zidane the map, and told him to run. But I leapt over Zidane, drew my sword and chopped Blank free! Then I grabbed his wrist and we both went racing for our lives.
We were running at a fast speed, then we flung ourselves out of the forest into the Mist Continent boarder. We could only watch as the entire forest was covered in stone.
I hope we can survive out here.
I could not believe what has changed so far. Blank was supposed to give his life for Zidane, but he’s here with us now! And we’ve gotten this far without any problems. At least I know that Tantalus is somewhat safe in the forest.
“That… was… too… close.” I said while panting hard.
“You said it.” Zidane said.
We set up camp to get some rest. It was going to be a long travel to Lindblum, especially if we were border crossing. Garnet woke up after we gave her the stuff, and she was a pretty cool person.
“Are you the one who saved my life on the ship?” she asked me. Come to think of it, I did save both her and Zidane’s neck. I had to do something, or that huge spear would’ve crushed them, and the bomb would’ve blasted them off the ship.
“Yeah… that’s me.” I replied. That made Steneir stare at me.
“You mean to tell me you and your band of rouges were sent to kidnap the princess and you saved her? I don’t believe it! I never will! You were the one, who was dressed up as the princess, weren’t you? How dare you…!”
I couldn’t take his screaming in my face, so I punched him in the chin so hard, he fell over.
“SHUT UP RUSTY!” I snapped right before a punched him.
“WAY TO GO, LOLEILE!” Zidane cheered on. Garnet stared at me like she never saw a girl do that before. Then I turned to Blank. He saved my neck back there, and I owed him.
“Blank… thanks for what you did back there.” I said.
“No problem, girl. But you’re the one who saved my neck too, ya know.” He replied.
“I guess I owe ya, huh?”
“Nah, we’re even. But thanks anyway.”
“No problem…”
“God you’re pretty…”
“Excuse me?”
“What? Did I say something? Sorry…”
“You were very brave back there, Miss Loleile.” Vivi said. “Woah, that’s probably the first time anyone’s called me, ‘Miss’. Just call me Loleile, ‘kay? But thanks anyways. You were pretty brave back there too, kid.” I said.
He looked at me, and said:
“Are you going to travel with us, from now on?”
“You betcha! I needed to get away, anyhow. That’s one of the reasons why I joined Tantalus. My life was a little… not fun.” I said.
“Oh… well I hope you have fun.”
“Thanks. You’re a sweet kid.”
We rested a little bit, and then we fell asleep. The next day, it was early and the sun was coming up a bit. Zidane, Blank and I were staring at Evil Forest. The place seemed dead… but I sure hoped Tantalus wasn’t.
“Let’s get going. I heard there’s a cavern towards the east.” I said.
“She’s right. It’s on the map.” Blank said.
“Well… let’s go! We’re gonna get to Lindblum one way or another!” Zidane said.
We received a welcome from a little moogle, a cute furry bird and mammal-like creature. His name was Monty. He gave us a few tips, and also gave us a flute to call moogles anywhere in the world.
We left, and went trotting towards the east. From the looks of the scenery, we were in a misty valley of cliffs. From what Zidane heard, North and South Gate were sealed off.
I guess it was time to start battling stronger enemies and grow stronger fighters. I know It ain’t gonna be easy, and it ain’t gonna be too much fun, but I’m gonna have to get it done.
I’m sure I’ve been following that phrase. Now I’m going to have to use it if I want to survive. But I won’t be alone while following it. I’ve got Zidane, Garnet, Vivi, Blank, even Rusty on my side to help me. We made it to the beautiful and mystical “Ice Cavern” and that’s when Vivi said that it would lead us out of the valley.
It was time to rock, now. We’re going to have to battle more harsher battles, but I won’t be alone when I fight them… and I’ll make sure that everybody else will too!
“Oh… what a beautiful place! It’s better then just reading about it!” Garnet said.
“God, you said it, dude.” I said. Of course, Steiner was angry… AGAIN.
“D-DUDE!? SHE IS GARNET TIL ALEXANDROS! AND YOU WILL TREAT HER WITH THE PROPER RESPECT THAT SHE DESERVES!” he snapped. I growled back at him.
“DAMNIT RUSTY! WOULD YOU PLEASE SHUT THE HELL UP!” I snapped back. He shook his fist at me and gave me the angriest face in the world.
“You guys…” Vivi protested.
“Can we move it already? I’m freezing here.” Zidane said.
Rusty and I turned away and the group traveled into the beautiful cavern. It was very cold though for Zidane, Blank and Garnet. I saw how cold Garnet was. A bodysuit isn’t fit for cold weather.
“Hey, here ya go.” I said. I took off my cloak and put it around Garnet.
“Are you sure you will be alright?” Garnet asked.
“Oh, don’t mind me. I’ll be cool.” I replied. I guess I just made a new pal.
Boy was I going to regret that I gave my cloak to Garnet. We were walking on a cliff that was five feet away from the ground in a certain part of the cavern, and boy was it freezing. There was like a small blizzard. It was like Garnet was reading my mind. Without talking, she threw the cloak on me and walked away like it was nothing.
“Hurry up Vivi! You don’t want to be left behind!” Zidane called out.
“I’m coming…” Vivi said, but fell off the cliff onto the ground.
“Master Vivi! I’m coming!” Steiner said, but he fell off too!
The two were sleeping like babies. Zidane then jumped down to check out what happened, and I wrapped my cloak around Blank, Garnet and me to keep warm.
“Hey Rusty! You’re… not alright, are you?” Zidane started. Then he softly kicked Steiner.
“Hey Rusty! Move it or lose it!” he said.
“GET UP!” he shouted, giving Steiner a huge kick to the ribs. Still nothing happened. My cloak wasn’t warm enough. Blank, Garnet and I fell asleep.
“Oh no! Not you guys too! Oh great! Now… I’m… falling… asleep…” Zidane fell asleep.
It seemed like we were going to freeze here, but then Zidane heard something. It was like a bell ringing.
Following it, he found… Black Waltz No. 1! He looked like everything that described a demon.
“Are you the one who’s making this blizzard?” Zidane snapped.
“Hehehe…that’s right.” He said. Just then, the waltz rung a small bell and then an Ice Giant Sealion appeared.
Zidane was a bit scared, but who wouldn’t be?
I woke up, and shielding my face with an arm I woke up Blank. He was stubborn at waking up though.
“Blank! Wake up!” I shouted, giving him a smack across his smock. He woke up then, placing a hand where I’d slapped him.
“Dang it… you hit hard.” He said.
“Come on! Zidane’s in danger. We’ve gotta help him!” I said.
“Alrighty, let’s go!”
“Okay, I’ll meet you up there.”
He raced off in Zidane’s direction. I picked up Garnet and threw her ontop of Vivi and Steiner, and then I wrapped my cloaked around all of them. It was time to get nasty and beat up some ice giants and black waltzes!
“It’s gonna take a lot more then you to get rid of me!” Zidane snapped.
The Sealion was about to smack Zidane, but a dagger went chopping right threw the flipper! Zidane looked up, but then a fiery eidolon hit the Black Waltz before he could do anything!
“Looks like we got here just in time!”
“Blank and I wouldn’t leave a partner!” I said. Zidane was glad to hear that. The Black Waltz however was super angry though.
“No matter! You’ll never win anyway!” he snapped.
“That’s what you think, ugly!” I snapped, and then used my fiery eidolon of Ifrit. Then Zidane had Trance again, and Blank used his special weapon technique.
Together we beat the living daylights out of the two! We stood with pride as the victors, but right then there was a voice. It said in a very eerie tone:
“You may have defeated No. 1 but No. 2 and No. 3 WILL reclaim the princess…”
“What the hell?” Blank said, confused.
“Whatever, Bro. Let’s check up on the others. You coming, Sis?” Zidane asked. Sis…? Alrighty! Now I’m officially a Tantalus member!
“You betcha!” I said, winking at them and giving a peace sign. We raced towards the others, quickly because the blizzard had stopped.
Garnet and the others were pretty curious, and then that’s when I thought this…
Blank’s more then a pretty face, Zidane too. I just hope they realize that they won’t have to battle alone anymore…
And while I’m around, they sure won’t have to!
