Argh... (paeges through everything...)

LOL! ZombieRonfar? Men chasing Lucia in a thong? (Uhh... as in Lucia in a thong... not men in a thong >_<;;... then again, there's Kuja...)... CHIBI-THEATRE!

Well, my sister has discovered... Neopets, meaning that I probably can't find ample time to really post anymore (either way, it's practically the end of the tourny, and my character's... yes, half-dead >_<;;

And, thank you, Krizak! It was a great tournament, and I bet the ending will be great. Thanks to Rena/Terra Lockheart for giving me a team invitation ^^. Thanks to Lucia/Angelalex for uniting all of us in some epic, and REALLY dramatic battles. It really made this tournament fly. Thanks to Maniac Ranma/Dias and Rena/Terra Lockheart for the... interesting wedding. Ghaleon/Crystal Sword... your posts were really amazing and creative, being in first person. They were dramatic, comedic... and I think, even though I haven't played Lunar, that I really got a feel for Ghaleon's character. Cheers to all those who took non-Square characters and characters from lesser known origins! Thanks to Saint, for beginning the Survivor tradition. Being a fan of Vivi... congrats to Sylphid for playing an 'underdog' hero! After seeing the Celes posts... I was really looking forward to more from Shinji! And, being a fan of SoM... yays to Niflheim for portraying Randi! It really looked into his sadness for the events from the game. Magus, your posts were well-written, dramatic... and very special among all the insanity. I wish I could've seen what you did in earlier tournaments. Terra_Break, great portrayal of Marle (CT forever!)! Izlude, Saint7, Daigohji, and ANYONE else who made this tournament more humorous... it was amazing how much I laughed from reading these posts!

And everyone else... i think I should thank pretty much everyone for making my first Survivor experience a blast, since everyone contributed in their little way. I might make an ending for my character... Survivor has gave me some writing practice... and it really DOES make one feel more attached to the character, or at least know them a bit more.

I'll be back in a bigger and more interesting role next time! =)

(goes off to see if I can write one last story post...)

Cloud looked around. "A stadium huh?...so I have to fight people in order to win this...tournament...." Suddenly, Cloud saw Vincent across the stadium. "Hey, Vincent!!" Cloud yelled while running up toward him. "I'm not even completely sure what the hell this is all about...but its too late to back out now.....Shall we fight alongside eachother during this thing? It should give us better odds..."

Okay, who wants to tag team against Cloud and Vincent? hmmmm?

Randi finds himself... part 1

The darkness again

I've been here so many times...

It'll never change...I'll always be used by someone, as long as I have this sword...

I wish I never found it...

"You don't mean that Randi."

...Who is here? This is my mind.

"Let me help you."

I don't want help, I just want to die.

"I can't do that."

Anyone else would.

"You shouldn't think that. As soon as you do, you kill everyone you've ever loved. I'm going to help you now. Open your eyes, and your mind."

Randi felt a warm wind flow past him, and gravity once took over again. He was on the ground, in a place very familiar to him. It was Fa' Diel. And he was approximately in the same spot he first found the sword.

What am I doing here?

He tried to look around, but he couldn't. He wasn't in control of his body. In fact, his body was taller and bigger than before. Not only that, but there was a woman and child with him.

"Darling, we should keep moving. They are getting closer by the day." Randi's body said.

The woman was tall, beautiful, and had the oddest shade of green for hair. "I know, but the baby has a cold and he's hungry. Can't we wait here a little longer?" the woman said as she cradled, what seemed to be, her child.

"Alright, but not much longer, there's a village near here where we might find help." Randi said involuntarily.

That voice is familiar...

"Thank you," the woman replied.

They staid a while near the stream and fed the child. The poor thing looked very sickly.

They must have been on the run for a while.

The man turned and Randi couldn't help but looking where the man faced. He saw in the distance three men. Randi reckognized them, and he felt the man did too. They were all waiting to ambush him, his wife and child when they started to move.

"You must leave now, love," the man said. "Take Randi and go to Potos. It's just east of here."

RANDI?!

"What are you going to do?" the woman asked.

"JUST LEAVE!" the man yelled.

The woman stepped back and looked at her husband.

"I'll be fine," he said. And the woman took the boy and left. When they were gone, he spoke again. "You can come out now Thanatos! Bring the Emporer's henchmen with you. I want to get this over with."

"Ah wise decision, my shell." Thanatos said. "A man from the Mana Tribe would treat this old soul well for the next few millenia."

Mana Tribe? Randi? Could this be...

The two henchmen were Sheex and Fahna. The two Randi had killed in his previous adventure. They both divided themselves and got the man in a pincer attack.

"Remember, don't kill him. I'll need his body." Thanatos said and left the two to capture the man.

The man reached to his side and grabbed his sword.

This sword... It's the Mana Sword! This man is my Father!

"We shall show you the strength of the Empire is no match for the strength of the Empire," Sheex said.

"Fools always think they are strong." Randi's father shot back. and the battle had begun. It was all to blurry for Randi, his Father fought with such skill Randi had not seen before. He was not able to keep up with his moves or the moves of the two men.

After a few minutes, one of the men grabbed Randi's father from behind, and the other stabbed him in the side with his sword. The man screamed in pain and knocked the two away. He dropped to his knees and began storing energy for an attack. Green and white light spiraled around him and into his sword.

The mana sword's true power...

"What is he doing with that sword?" Fahna said as she backed away.

"What were you saying about the Mana tribe?" The man said and slashed his sword around in a circle and struck both the men.

They both screamed in agony and retreated a few steps. "Let's go, he's no use to Thanatos anyway. He'll die from that last attack."

They both shot off back after Thanatos and left the man injured on the ground.

He crawled to the stream and with his last ounce of strength, placed the sword into the stream. "Please, my friend, protect my wife and child for me." Then a white light surrounded him and he vanished.

OOC: phew, i need a break. Randi is still off-limits.

Size 1 cause it's so long ^_^

Marle sighed, "The fighting has begun..." It was now or never, and she knew her survival depended on it. She grasped the pendant, the burning grew... "Please... Please forgive me for what I must do!"

Marle closed her eyes and dropped her hands to her sides. The flame from within began to pull out. It flickered violently and a blinding aura of blue fire surrounded her body. The words of life came to her lips, the words she spoke when returning Crono to the mortal plain, "All who fear night and stand aganist the darkness... Please give us strength!" The flame grew brigther, her body vanished into the light. A massive ray of ice blew straight through the center of water above. It began to freeze from the inside out... Broken peices of ice began to fall onto the stadium below, hitting some unsuspecting people below...

Upon Bombay's request, one attack vote on Leon...

FFO Survivor: Ghaleon

OOC: Whoa! Action!

Thanks, Thunder Blossom! I'm truly flattered - Ghaleon is my favorite RPG character and I'm glad I was successful in portraying him well. It's too bad you won't be able to write much more - I was enjoying reading what Mizuki was going to do next. BTW, what the heck is a Neopet? Never mind, from your reaction and Terra's, I probably don't want to know...

This has indeed been a great tournament, and I hope to see all of you next time!

-----------

What was that? I heard something. Was it Ronfar again?

...No, he is still unconscious from that last episode. It sounded like it came from... the arena. Oh, my! What is happening - did someone actually begin to fight??? Perish the thought. *Derisive laugh*

Randi... why is he being so violent all of a sudden? And he seemed so level-headed in the earlier days of the contest. I wonder... is something else manipulating him? Or am I just being paranoid, given everything else that has happened to me and those around me throughout this week? Week. Huh. It seems an age has passed.

I suppose this is a good opportunity for me to return to the playing field. But I should refrain from involving myself just yet - I need to see who is truly being the agressor here. In the meantime, I had forgotten how enjoyable it is to go for a swim. That should keep me occupied long enough for me to deterimine who is friend and who is foe.

-----------

OOC: Ghaleon is not in the water when Marle freezes it yet. He goes in after the thaw. Er, I guess.

Izzat our swimming Ghaleon? Whoo!

Crystal Sword-san: Neopets is this online game which is basically raising these little critters and buying and selling items and stuff. That was a lame description O_o;; My sis was really obsessed with it for a while (and I still think she is) ^^;;

*waves at sis in case she reads this*

Gah ... beddy-time. *eyes snap shut*

Randi finds himself....part 2 ~_^

Randi left the body and returned to the blackness in his own mind.

You're my father aren't you!

"Yes I am, Randi. You needed to see how the sword can be used for good."

Father...What am I doing here? Why is everyone against me?

"People need to survive, they have loved ones and people to protect, just as you do. Before, you were fighting against an evil. A common enemy that should have been defeated. This is different. There is no longer black and white anymore, there is only grey out there."

Why must I be forced to use this thing, this accursed sword, to do evil when it was created to do good? It seems I'm always hurting the ones I love to protect the ones I don't.

"You don't hate anyone. As long as you know that, you'll be fine."

I hate them all.

"You're mind is being clouded by something. That little friend you've brought with you is the answer. It is all the black and white you'll need to win this tournament."

You mean Mackey? How could such a little creature do such a thing?

"It is a magnified reflection of yourself. When you recieved your Mana power in Fort Draconia, a piece of yourself entered him, and a piece of him entered you. As long as you know right from wrong, and stay in that grey area, you should be fine. And so should he."

I'm still too weak to do anything...

"The Mana sword wasn't revived by simple magic tricks when you fought Flammie. You will soon understand. Now wake up and release your mind."

Randi awoke underwater. It had seemed he had been gone for a few hours, but he wasn't dead. He couldn't swim either. Struggle as he might, currents would always push him deeper towards the center of the sphere.

'Release my mind. Just like my father did.' Randi thought and grabbed his sword. It began to glow the green and white he had seen in his mind and suddenly took flight. The sword pulled Randi out of the water and safely to the ground.

"I've done it," he said. "After all these years, the true Mana Sword has been revived..."
_________

OOC: okay, now you can use Randi for any battleing you want, but be careful...Randi is now in possession of the true mana sword. >=D

Lenneth saw the ice falling and in a flash went back into the bleachers and up to the top, avoiding the shards raining down. Something had happened in her moment of contemplation. She leaned back against the wall and thought a bit.

Why should I fight? I heard their explanation. It seems valid enough, and I myself couldnot bear the thought of all existence ceasing wihtout someone to sustain it, yet it does not seem right.

There does seem to be an imbalance, but is it really us who must fix this? I have seen the effects of temporal distorion - can even planar distortion begin ripping worlds apart and destroying the lives of all sentient beings?

All things have a right to life - even Vante. As much chaos as he caused, and havoc, and the loathing I have on control and possession of another being, there was something in his eyes that spoke volumes that he was not in it for the power or destruction - not wholly.

Perhaps that was why I had spared him. I never did get the reason why he looked that way though. Nevertheless, he deserved life. Even Zophar and Lavos certainly had their places, though their times were over in other realms.

I myself seem to have purpose in the future, but that does not mean I may walk away from this. I have seen temporal distortion in action - Lucia.


She glanced up.

Even so, I must be on my guard. I cannot fail. For Midgard, and for the lives in the future which pray for salvation. For all life that yearns and for all the destinies yet to unfold.

She drew Levantine.


So you would dare raise the blade against mortals?

No, I raise it in defense for now to protect the future of a race which prays for salvation. I will grant life and salvation unto those that ask.

Return of the Genome...

OOC:Thunder Blossom, thanks for your support. The trick to playing a deity is not to annoy people with them, and to remember that the tournament is not made to serve you. You are made to serve the tournament, and make it more fun for everyone else. I did my best to use my powers to make things better for everyone else, and to help as many story lines as I could. Anyway, Lucia is now going to have further encounters of the masculine kind, and has only a thong and divine might to fend them off. What to do?

OOC:I feel like picking on Zidane again.

Lucia was resting face down on her nifty floating beach chair, and had actually closed her eyes for a moment. Meanwhile, Freya had gone to get food from the washed up vendor. So, while Freya's away, Zidane had to play. Equipping Auto Float, Auto Haste, Auto Regen, Auto Reflect, and Auto Haste, he thought he was ready to make his move on the floating goddess.

The resting goddess never saw him coming, but the vendor did, and pointed it out to Freya. Freya smirked, and decided to let him learn his own folly. She had already warned him Garnet would hear about it if he tried it again. And the floor would soon be his resting place. If, after Lucia, there was enough of him left to rest at all.

Meanwhile, Zidane crept across the top of the dome, to the goddess floating just above it. He crept up on her, slowly, carefully, with the experience of a practiced thief. Both hands ready, he grabbed her ass firmly with both hands.

"Ooh, even softer!"

That was the last thing he would say that day. Lucia awoke, and shrieked. She cut loose with atomic burn on reflex, which reflect countered, and flung back at her. Now REALLY angry, she would have sent him to the emergency room with plasma rain, but auto life brought him back. So he managed to grab her chest before Lucia really cut loose on him. Hitting him again with plasma rain, the annoying sexual harrasser was cast down, but befor he hit the water, he got hit with 3 thunder blows in a row. Paramedics saw this one coming, and rushed out with the stretcher. Zidane had suffered a concussion, 5 seperate broken bones in different parts of his body, and heavy internal bleeding. If auto regen hadn't been on, Lucia might well have killed him. As it was, his magical abilities would take at least a week to heal him. After this, the guys decided to stop hitting on her for a while. They really didn't want to suffer Zidane's fate.

OOC:Yes, I know Zidane isn't really THAT perverted. Even to Garnet. But hey, I needed a story
