I'd continue, but I've got to go to bed now -- I was exhausted today after staying up so late last night. Plus, as you can see, *points to above post* I'm not feeling too good about my writing right now. Ahhhh....anyway, goodnight, everyone.

Possible minor spoiler for FFX... I think.

Clive really didn't know what to make of this; what kind of water was this, where drowning was impossible? Still, pushing mind-boggling facts aside, he had sat back like the other non-participating contestants and watched as the graceful dance of a fight started between Vincent and Lenneth. Occasionaly he went off to get a particular tasty food called 'popcorn'.

"Hey there!"

He blinked and looked up to see a young man grinning back down at him, while spinning a blue ball on his fingertip. He was rather tanned, and it contrasted greatly with his bleached blonde hair. His yellow attire seemed rather odd to Clive; but then again, with the other attires he had seen so far, it hardly surprised him. "Hey." he greeted, somewhat reluctantly.

The man grinned again, caught the ball, and sat down next to him. "So, what do you think so far?" the young man asked, only to recieve a blank stare. "The fight, I mean."

Clive shurgged uncomfortably. He hadn't seen this man before as a contestant; who was he? "I suppose it's all right, considering the water restricts their speed."

"Well, I think the fight really needs some improvement. It's not really up to my standards, you know?"

"Reason being?"

"There's not enough... class."

"... I see." Clive shot him one of his 'uh-huh' glances. "Who are you to deem it as such, anyway?"

The man stared at him in shock. "You don't know who I am!? Seriously?"

Clive raised an eyebrow. "Should I?"

"Oh, man... you're really missing out on all the good stuff, huh? Name's Tidus. The famous Blitz Ball Celebrity. Come on, you're joking about not knowing me, right?"

"No."

There was an pregnant pause as Tidus tried to get over the shock.

"... I guess you don't want my autograph, huh."

"If you don't mind. Popcorn?"

The body is but a vessel for the soul,
A puppet which bends to the soul's tyranny.
And lo, the body is not eternal,
For it must feed on the flesh of others,
Lest it returns to the dust from whence it came.
Therefore must the soul
Deceive, dispise, and murder men.

Où est la Lumière?

Tatsuya…Tatsuya wake up! Tatsuya…this is just a dream. Wake up to reality. Tatsu!

“Tatsuya! Tatsuya!”

Tatsuya was shocked out of his daze. The voice in his mind had been haunting him ever since this morning, where he woke up to find Maya with him.

“Are you alright? You seems to be in such a daze all the time today.” Maya asked with concern.

“I…guess so. I think…I am just tired.”

“Wake up, you sleepy head. We are already in the final dungeon. This is our final battle, a final battle to freedom.” Said Lisa.

Lisa, Jun, Ekichi and…Maya. It’s so good to be with them again. But something is wrong. Something is very wrong…

“We are finally here. Get ready, you guys. We are going to finish that bastard who ruin our lives once and for all!” Ekichi shouted.

Finally, Tatsuya and his friends were faced with the strongest enemy of their lives. Nyarlathotep...
Though this was not the first time Tatsuya was facing him, Tatsuya could still feel his power emitting from him. But something was wrong. Something was not right about him. He seemed so strong, yet, so weak.

“Fusion spell everyone! Persona!”

Nyarlathotep was defeated in a snap. Tatsuya was surprise. The battle was too simple, much too simple. Somethins is wrong...

"Tatsuya! Finally! We are free from our fate! Free from all this!" Maya exclaimed as she hugged Tatsuya.

This is not right....something is not right...

"Let's go back and tell the people of Samura!" Lisa shouted happily.

I am forgetting something, what? What is it?

"Tatsuya, what is it? We had defeated Nyarlathotep. You should be happy." Jun said, giving a slap on Tatsuya's shoulder.

No, that's not it. We defeated him, but...

"Tatsuya, we did it, dude!" Ekichi smiled, giving him the victory sign.

But...it did not feel real...not at all...

"Tatsuya...you kept your promise, you manage to protect me and all of us." Maya said, and kissed Tatsuya on the lips.

No...no, that's not it. I didn't save Maya. Maya died in my hands. I am a sinner...

"Tatsuya? What's wrong?" Maya asked with concern

No...I didn't manage to save Maya...Maya...you are not Maya...Maya don't call me Tatsuya...She calls me...

"Tatsuya?"

Tatsu...

"This is not real."

"What? Why do you say that, Tatsuya? Are you alright?" Maya asked, looking into Tatsuya's eyes.

"You are not Maya..."

"Don't...don't say that, Tatsuya...please..."

"You are not real..."

"Don't...you can stay here forever, Tatsuya. If you don't deny your existence here now, we can be here forever."

"You are made from my guilt and my longing for Maya...but you can never be her..."

"Don't...don't you want to stay here? I am alive here, you will be happy here...Tatsuya, don't say it. Don't say it..."

"MAYA IS DEAD!!!!"

The world around Tatsuya began spinning and falling apart. Lisa began to vanish into ashes...followed by Ekichi and Jun.

"Tatsuya! NO!!! Don't!!" The trio shouted before turning into dust.

"Tatsuya...please, don't..." Maya begged.

Tatsuya looked at her, with tears welled up in his eyes.

"I would love to too...but...the real Maya needs me. She is waiting for me to save her..."

Tears rolled down Tatsuya and Maya's eyes.

"I have to keep my promise..."

Maya began to disappear, turning into dust.

"I shall see you again...Maya. Good bye, my love..."

The world swirled around Tatsuya as he fell to his knees. The quiet world began to transform into a stadium with a giant sphere of water in the middle. Crowds shouted out so loud, it hurst the ears.

"Welcome back, Tatsuya."

Tatsuya looked up. It was Sydney.

"Here, have a potion. You will need it. This sphere of water is going to be blood red soon..." Sydney said as he hand over a bottle of cure potion. "Let's fight hand in hand again, shall we? For our goals and dreams."

"Yes, for our goals and dreams."

And for you, Maya.
---

You will never know, Tatsu, that I am always looking over you. Good luck, Tatsu...and...Survive.

---

Ok, done with Tatsuya's part. He is back and he can fight now. BTW, just a qns. Does anyone actually read all the fic in the thread? Or is my one always ignored by all? ^_^;;

BA - I kinda read most posts...

And fantastic story! Poor Tatsuya... @_@

Now, for more Clive madness!


----

"I think I get it." Tidus muttered, scratching his head in puzzlement. "A Tournament of the fittest, huh... kinda like Blitz Ball competitions?"

Clive sighed and rubbed his temples. "Is Blitz Ball the only thing on your mind?" he grumbled, and Tidus gave him a irritated look in return. "Well, I do love Blitz Ball and I'm not afraid to say it." he said defensively. "I still can't believe you haven't heard of Blitz Ball. It's like the most popular sport in the world!"

"So?"

Tidus sighed, and idly tossed the ball between his hands. "Fine, be that way. What's your favourite sport, then?"

Hunting.

"Shooting," Clive replied, after a moment's hestiation. "You wouldn't happen to see a blonde woman wearing a white cape around here, would you?" He subconciously started to caress Sturm which was at his side, feeling somewhat reassured when he touched it. A faint trobbing started in his head.

"Elza! Are you all right?"

Elza gave him a reassuring smile as she held the blood-stained cloth to the middle of her face. "It's okay," came her muffled voice, "It just needs a few stiches."

"Kelley won't be happy when he hears about this..."

Elza's eyes twinked at him. "You're pairing us up already, Clive? And here I thought that you liked me."

"No! I just--"


"She has a scar across her face," he murmured softly, frowning as memories floated up.

"Uh... well, I--"

"How much did you spent on this thing?"

"Oh, not much... it smells pretty nice, doesn't it?" Elza rubbed her wrists together, spreading the purfume. "It's the smell of lilacs."

"It does smell like it..."

Elza grinned as she took the bottle from him. "Think Kelley would like it?"

"If you're planning to seduce him, I'm not telling."

Elza burst into laughter, and smiled at him. "Always the protective friend, aren't you?" She joked, and donned her cape as she prepared to go out.

"He's like a brother to me."


Clive shook his head, trying to dismiss the growing pain. "She smells of lilacs. You must have seen her somewhere here. You can't miss her... you can't. She stands out too much. There's the scent, and her laughter--"

Tidus yanked his arm out from Clive's death grip, which startled the gunslinger out of his hysteria and dropped Sturm. "Dammit, what's wrong with you!?" he scowled as he rubbed his nearly bruised arm. "It looks like you're the obsessed one, not me!"

Clive stared at him, blinking in confusion as the pain that had threatened to burst faded away. What did he say?

"Don't you think there's more to life than obsessing over this woman of yours!? Geez!"

There was a pause, as Clive tried to regain his dignity. "And there's more to life than Blitz Ball, too." He replied eventually, rather lamely. Tidus gave him an annoyed glare in return, and went off to harrass the other contestants if they wanted his autograph. Clive watched silently as he left. Of course he wasn't obsessing over Elza! That was mad, insane; why should he? He was only carrying out orders from the Howling Voice Guild to hunt her down. Nothing else. Shaking his head, he picked up Sturm.

"I didn't mean to kill Kelley."

Sure she didn't. Sure she didn't.

OOC: There might be little bit of VS spoiler>_< Sorry.

================================
"What kind of dream do you have? Happy ones? Sad ones? With colour? Without colour? I always have a dream, it is......"

A little boy is sitting on his father's lap listening to the most wonderful story told to him. It was a bliss, the boy dream in dreams of wonderful adventure. He love the time he spend with his father.

"It's time for you to go to sleep now, son," said the father, looking at the child with feelings.

"But I don't want to, I want to listen to your stories," opposed the boy. Seems that he doesn't want to obey his father whenever the story time ends.

"Ok, I will tell you one more story, and then off to bed, is that ok?"

"Alright!!" The child said with enthusiasm awaiting for his next adventure to be exciting.

"Once upon a time, there's a child. He is really kind, he loves his father and his mother," the father told his story and then stopped waiting for the child to response.

"And then, and then??"

"And then, one day, there comes a sandman, no one knows what his intention is. He came up to the child and said, 'Do you want to dream the world's most beautiful dream there is?'" The father paused again and ask his own son, "if the chance was given to you, will you want it?"

"..........I don't know father, but I think I will," the child sounds doubtful.

"Well, lets continue on and see what will happen," the father smiled.

"Ok!!"

"The child say yes to the offer, then the sandman spray the sand into the child's eyes and he immediately fall into sleep. The child starts to dream, he dream of the most wonderful thing in his life. But from that day, he never want to wake up, and no one knows what he dreamed of. He lives in his own world, and lost contact with the reality. THE END."

"What did he dreamed of?"asked the child with an innocent face.

"What do you want to dream of?"

"I want to dream of sitting here everyday and listen to your stories forever and ever and ever and ever........"

The father laughed at the childish answer, "but, is that what you really want to dream of?"

".........." The child was silent, now he is thinking deep, but before that, he returned the question to his father, "What do you want to dream of, papa?"

"One day, you will become strong and have your own dreams, and goals, and......."

"And?"

"And your own life. Don't fall into your own dreams like the child in the story. He only want to be happy, and depend on the spell of eternal bliss. He drowned into his own world and forget about the life he got in front of him. Have your own life, and don't let the dreams hinder you. Even though you won't understand it now, but someday you will."

"Someday...I will?"

"Yes, you will, I am sure. Now go to sleep, son, it's late."

"Yes, papa!!"

With that, the child ran into his room, and fell into sleep.

"What kind of dream will you have, son? I hope it is not eternal bliss, because you will be haunted by it later in your life."
-----------------------------

The child woke up, he didn't drown in his happiness. But he was haunted by it. "Papa....where is papa!!!" he cried, "I got an answer for you! I got an answer for you!" He kept on repeating that phrase. " I got an answer for you!!! I have to help papa, since you helped me when I was born! Papa!!"

No one reply his cry, he is alone.

"Is this what I should get?" Sydney ask himself as he laughed. "But he is gone now, there is nothing I can do. I know what you mean by dreams and life now, papa, I finally know."

Sydney got up, not far he walked, he found Tatsuya, struggling with himself. Just when Sydney was about to touch Tatsuya, he saw a transparent image flickered and standing next to Tatsuya. The image looked at Sydney and said, "please look after him." And the next second, she was gone.

Finally Tatsuya regained his conscious, Sydney walked up to him and greet, "Welcome back, Tatsuya."

For a second, Tatsuya can't realise who it is, but after a while, he realise it was someone he met before. He got up and Sydney handed him a potion. "Lets fight hand in hand, shall we? For our goals and dreams."

The two walked off.
-----------------------
"What did you dream of, son?"

Um...

OOC: Crystal Sword: "What's Neopets??" Neopets is a consperacy to control America's youth! Er...uh, I mean...Neopets is like a mixture of Pokemon and Tamagatchi. Enough said.

Ahem...Luna, your posts are NOT boring! They were good, and most of us were surprised that you got voted out! It was just votes by people who needed to vote, they were just randomly targeted towards you. And if you didn't get voted out, you might not have had time to be Nall, right? ^_^

As for Niflheim...er...what can I say about that comic? It's um...interesting to say the least. ^^ Anyways, finally, some action!!! And still no one is posting...
