Chapter 1: Dreamless

The inside of the sphere was lit only by the capsules lining it’s walls, which all glowed with the same eerie green light. The room would have been a xenobiologist’s dream, for within each one was a different being, and while some were just human, others were decidedly different. Over on one wall were two capsules that contained what appeared to be elves, while across from them was an enormous turtle with a dragon-like head. Near the bottom were two sophisticated robots, one completely different from the other, and a particularly large capsule near the top contained a white-feathered dragon.

All of the occupants of the capsules were perfectly motionless, being held in a state of suspended animation. None of them knew where they were, and none of them ever would; in their eyes, the teleportation would be instantaneous. For now, they slept a dreamless sleep. A sleep Yume envied more than anything.

I wonder what their dreams are when they sleep normally, she thought as she floated in the centre of the sphere. Do the dreams have meaning, or are they simply flights of fancy? Are they happy dreams? Sad? Frightening? What does one dream about when your life is your own?

She floated over to a male thief and a female knight. Do you two dream of each other? Does your love live on even there? She moved a bit to the left, to look in on an elvin boy dressed in green. Do you dream of adventure? Is it the quests of your past you dream of, or do you imagine future battles that you may take part in?

She continued floating in front of the capsules, thinking about each one, wondering what their dreams were. Is your sleep always dreamless, robot, or do you dream as well? What dreams do the darkness produce, clown? Have you already fulfilled your dreams, old man, or are there still wishes you have left?

Finally, she floated back to the centre of the room. I said that with my gift, you would be able to make your dreams come true. What you don’t know is... if you win, you may not have any dreams left. She wiped a tear from her eye, and spoke aloud. “I’m sorry, but I can’t live my life without dreams. I hope whoever wins will understand...”

White energy started to gather around Yume, growing brighter by the second. Yume threw her arms wide, and in bright flash, she was gone. Along with all of the occupants of the capsules.

Eric was having a great day. Last night’s premiere performance of “The Moogle King” in the Event Square had been a fantastic success, far better than he had expected for a play adopted from an animated film. Even better, since his boss had been killed in the recent attack in the Battle Square (Serves him right! Always making me do all the work while he got all the credit! Bastard.), he had been promoted to Chief Stage Manager of the Gold Saucer, which meant a lot more money and a lot more credit. He was already busy with his crew to prepare for tonight’s performance, and they were even ahead of schedule.

At least, until the girl in purple appeared.

Eric was more annoyed than surprised when the girl suddenly appeared on stage. Damn kids... he thought as he walked out from backstage. Always getting a hold of the their parents’ Materia and then goofing off. Girl’s lucky she didn’t pick up a Destruct one...

“Young lady, I don’t know what you’re doing here, but you had better get back home before-ULP!” The stage manager's words were cut short as the girl drew the katana by her side and in one fluid motion brought in a centimetre from his throat, without even looking at him.

“Sir, I suggest that you evacuate yourself immediately from the premises.” Yume looked over at Eric, who looked like he was about to wet his pants. “It is for your own good that you not interrupt us.”

Only after Yume said that did Eric glance over to the audience. In the front seats, he saw at least 60 people, most armed with various deadly looking weapons. And in the circular aisle above the seats appeared to be a white dragon.

The dragon was what finally drove Eric to action. He glanced at Yume a moment, and then turned and ran down the stairs and up through the aisle. I suppose today’s performance will have to be cancelled. I don’t think Dio will mind, considering...

Yume chuckled softly to herself, and then turned back to the gathered participants. “I welcome you all to the Gold Saucer, which will be the first venue for our competition. Before you begin, though, I should lay down a few ground rules. First off, there will be no attacking civilians during this tournament.”

Near the back, a high-pitched voice cursed, “Son of a submariner!”

“However, I do realize that security forces may be sent out to try and stop you from fighting, and that various heroes may always intervene, so you are allowed to defend yourself against these individuals. Secondly, do not leave this building at any time; we don’t want to disturb the locals too much. And lastly, I expect you all to give your best efforts. You have all chosen to be here, and now I want you to show me that you want the prize!” Yume swung her sword around and pointed it towards the crowd. “And now, let the tournament begin!”

With her last words, the audience broke into a raucous cheer, heading for the exits to the theatre. Behind them, Yume sat down on the stage and smiled in spite of herself. “I wish you could see this, Saint. I... I think you‘d be proud...”

Round One Location: The Gold Saucer (Final Fantasy VII)
Begin Time: 1:30 AM MST, Monday Morning
Ending Time: 1:00 AM MST, Tuesday Morning
Special Rule: Defined Votes Only

The Gold Saucer is a giant amusement park rising out of the desert. From the outside, it looks like a large golden tree, with various branches sticking out in all directions. Inside, there are eight main areas, each one in a different branch:

- Station Square: This area has the main entrance to the Gold Saucer, and a trolley to North Corel that you aren’t actually allowed to take, since you can’t leave. Occasionally, a man appears here, willing to sell people GP, the official currency of the Gold Saucer.
- Event Square: This is the area that you started in. It’s essentially just a large amphitheatre, with a lot of seating and a stage.
- Ghost Square: A large haunted mansion, run by a group of employees dressed as various spooky creatures. Contains an item shop and an inn, both of which are headed up by the hilarious Mr. Hangman, who drops from the ceiling as soon as somebody wants something. Be warned, though; the inn portion only accepts GP.
- Speed Square: A long hallway from the entrance leads you to the Shooting Coaster, an attraction that only accepts GP. On the coaster, you try to earn points by shooting targets in various themed areas. If you get a certain amount of points, you win a crappy prize, which could be a toy soldier, a fake sword, or a tissue. Do really well, however, and you could win a new weapon.
- Wonder Square: One of the most popular places in the Gold Saucer, Wonder Square is filled with different arcade games. These accept normal currency to play, and should you do well, you can earn various amounts of GP, as well as other prizes. Among the attractions are an arm-wrestling game, a basketball game, several of those claw machines, an automatic fortune teller, a boxing simulator, a virtual-pet-like game involving a moogle named Mog, a submarine battle game, a snowboarding simulator, and G-Bike, in which you try to protect a truck from enemy motorcycles by attacking them with a sword and your own bike. There is also a person who will exchange GP for various useful items.
- Chocobo Square: Here, you can either bet on chocobo races, or you can race one yourself should you own one. The track itself runs around the outside of the Gold Saucer, and use holographs to create a virtual environment for the chocobos to race in. You can either win items or GP in Chocobo Square, after betting normal currency.
- Battle Square: Your battling skills will be tested here, for after paying 10 GP, you will be put in battles against increasingly harder monsters. The longer you stay in without dying, the more Battle Points you’ll earn, but you keep getting more handicaps as you fight. Battle Points can be exchanged here for some of the greatest items in existence. You can also visit Dio’s trophy room, where there’s a variety of historical artifacts that relate to war and battle.
- Round Square: Here, you can pay to take a gondola ride above most of Gold Saucer, where you’ll be able to see down into most of the squares. Highlights include a close-up look at the chocobo races, passing through the Shooting Coaster, and a view of the cat statue at the top of Gold Saucer.

All these areas are connected by a tubular transport system; jump in one tube and arrive almost instantaneously in another square. Throughout the Gold Saucer, you’ll encounter patrons, employees, and mascots dressed as fat chocobos. Also, the nine heroes of Final Fantasy VII may show up for a well-deserved break from saving the world, and they may take offence to you being so violent and intervene. So expect to see Cloud, Aerith, Cid and the rest running around the Gold Saucer as well...

Special Rule: Just as Yume wants to see your best efforts, so do I. In an attempt to get the action started quickly, this round has been designated as Described Votes Only. This means that all votes must be declared in the thread, and that you must describe how your character attacked or defended another. Spectators are the exception to this rule; they can still privately vote by e-mail.

FFOS6: Flammie

...Wow. I'm actually here for the beginning.

*Puts on a MIDI of Flammie's music*

I am going to be SO tired of this theme by the end of the week.

Lemme get one thing straight. While touring the Gold Saucer (From Round Square and during the intro FMV), you see that the domes are open to the sky. Now, would it be permitted for characters to fly from one venue to another? Since, er... I don't think Flammie will fit into those little transport tubes.

As along as you don't fly away from the Gold Saucer, you're perfectly fine. I expect people to eventually LEAP out of the gondola to get places...

FFOS6: Locke Cole

As the speech ended, Locke looked around the room. "Nice place" he thought to himself, "Sure is strange, though. It's like something out of a dream. Even Vector didn't have anything like this."

Some of the contestants were already beginning to leave the room, but Locke decided to take a few moments to relax. "Sure are a lot of freaks here," he thought, "Who are all these people? Some of them aren't even people." He corrected himself.

Glancing at one of the exits, he could swear he saw a moogle. "Nah, couldn't be." he thought "Or could it?" Mog was certainly the strongest moogle he had ever had the privilage of knowing, even if he was a bit eccentric at times.

Looking at another exit, Locke did a double take, "Celes! What is she doing here?" Immediately standing up, Locke began running towards her. "Celes wait!" he yelled, but apparently she didn't hear him. Leaving the room, Locke quickly scanned the crowd, but couldn't catch sight of her. "Damn!" he swore under his breath, "Looks like things are starting to get interesting."

---

And so it begins. Good luck everybody! Thanks for mentioning me in the intro Krizak.

Edit: Don't worry, just fixing the color.

FFOS6: Rydia of Mist

Woohooo! One quick post before bed! XD

(Good venue choice, Kriz... This should be interesting.)

*kicks on Rydia's theme*

FFIV spoilerage, of course. :P
-------
Well, this is it.

She walked out fo the auditorium, nervously looking about at the strangeness of this place. It reminded her almost of the Giant. Or the towers.

Rydia, focus! This is it. The prize is at stake!

She looked at a tube before her, and tenatively stepped in. The sudden launching sensations caused her to shriek, nad she held her whip tight to her chest until she seemed to pop up and out. She landed gracefully, having picked up that skill from the times she ahd to evade Edge.

Edge... I wonder what he's up to? Or everyone else for that matter?

She walked upto a map, gave it a cursory glance, and then spied a familiar shadow just exiting another tube. She picked another tube quickly. Acclimation was a good thing, and besides that, she wanted to see these Chocobos.

This is not my world, but they exist here too? How curious... but... that... that was... Golbez? If he's here, what of the others? Rosa? Cecil? .... Edge?

She recalled the man they had dealt with before, before he had goento sleep with the Lunarians... The Lunarians who slept until they felt the humans of her world would understand. The same ons who neverfully understood the summons as people, not beasts.

What I would not give, that the Lunarians could live with us, that Cecil shouldhva ehis brother again, and the Summons not have to be so feared and be more understood than just by summoners. What... I...

She stood at the foot of the stairs leading to a flashy towery place above. Her steps rose slowly as she milled over things. Her mother and Mist meant much to her, but so did the summons... and she had felt sorrow for those who had to sleep ... those who feared misunderstanding...

She once knew that feeling as well.

------
No way am I voting at this hour. ^^; Maybe when I wake up. G'luck to all!

Mintaka's tip of the moment: copy and save the master list so you can keep trakc of who's in, whos' sponsoring who, and so that you don't always have to look back to page 1 to know! ^^

That's my sign to go to bed. Night all!

Edit: Wait a minute.... someone correct me if I am wrong...

But did I really just get POST EIGHT of this thread? I can't count right now, but... ZzzzZZZzzzzZZZZzzzz.....

FFOS6: Zelda

Zelda looked around her.

Oh god....everyone's about to start fighting...I'm no good at hand to hand....I'd better get out of here....

"Nayru's Love.." She whispers to herself, and a blue force field appears around her.

"That should give me time to get out...."


Zelda ran outside of the event square, and into a giant area with many tubes leading to different places. She saw a blonde, spikey haired man walking towards one of the tubes, he stopped and looked at her, before walking towards her.

"Are you alright?" He asked, sounding concerned.

"Y...yes.....I'm fine...but you should leave as soon as possible...there're tons of people from all over the universe here....all fighting for a prize...in..in...a.."

"A tournament..." the spiky man cut her off, getting a grim look on his face.

"Y..You...know of it?" Zelda said backing away.

"Oh yes...I've been in three of them....Do yourself a favor girl...loose now...Nothing good comes out of these.....false promises...broken dreams..."

"Three...of them? And...those battle scars....it would seem that you're fairily powerful....." Zelda took a step forward.

"Powerful? Me? hah! Those tournaments only showed me how weak I truly am...how low I could truly become...."

"Mister..."
"Cloud...Call me Cloud...which reminds me....what's your name?"

"Pr...Zelda...just call me Zelda..."

"Zelda....You look like you could use some help...I know how brutal these can get...and I couldn't just let someone who seems somewhat reluctant to fight at all by your very nature go it alone....you will be taken from this place as soon as the powers that be decide it..but until then....would you like my help, Zelda?"

Zelda looked at Cloud for a minute, before steping closer to him.

"Yes....I'd like that Cloud...." Zelda said with a smile, glad that she'd made a friend under such hostile circumstances.

"We'd better get out of here...this is where everyone's going to emerge from...and they're ALL going to be looking for a fight....We'd better head down to another part of the gold saucer.." Cloud said, turning towards the battle square

"I don't think there'll be that many people heading here right away....." Cloud said as he and Zelda hopped into the tube.

Well, there we go, my first story post. Who hoo!!! its started!! *dances*

Wake up...

Wake up...


"Huh? AHHHHHH!!!!!"

Gau was shocked woke up in strange land, with large capsules all around him.

"Forest! Trees! Gone! Where, Gau? HUH??? O_O!!!"

"Welcome...to SURVIVOR..."

"GASP!!! EEK!"

"It's time to fight, Gau. For freedom, for love, for justice"

"Who you? Where, Gau?"

The mysterious lady smiled and disappeared, leaing Gau alone in the strange land...
Gau sniffed the air carefully...

"Food! Gau hungry! Smell food!!"

And he was lead away by the smell of popcorn and candyfloss found only in amusement park.

"Welcome to Gold Saucer, Gau..."

FFOS6: Flammie

Flammie looked around at the interior of the Gold Saucer.

Bright lights... Pretty colors... FUN!

With a warbling roar that caused a few people nearby to scatter reflexively, the young dragon spread her wings and lifted from the floor. Flying upwards through a hole in the roof, she circled lazily up around the main "trunk" of the enormous amusement park. She rolled slowly to one side to avoid a gondola going by on roller coaster tracks. As she flew, a few spotlights swung to pinpoint her. She calmly barrel rolled, noting a few camera flashes going off in the crowds of spectators.

Thrilling in the pure joy of flight, she circled higher and waited for the main event to start. She flexed her claws gently and let out a small puff of flame in anticipation.

Angelus
Lucia's Knight

*Leo's theme:Justice*

The great white knight looks around at this...place of revelry...and the only similarity that can come to mind is Jean's carnival.

"Hmm...perhaps...it is best..."

He couldn't see his Dragonship anywhere...he thought he'd been allowed to have it. Oh well. It wouldn't have made much sense to have it here anyway. He searches around for people he knows, or at least people he thinks he knows...

His first instinct is to get the lay of the saucer, and he proceeds to make use of the gondola ride...but it's lonely by one's self. No matter. White Knight Leo would manage. The car takes him round the saucer, and he's truly amazed by the lights and colors. It's enough to make one think he was insane...or within the realm of the goddess. Which he was, actually, just not Lucia's realm.

The ride stopped, and he got off. "This place is strange indeed. But yet..." The thought trails off...fun? For him? Never...

He has yet to notice his now glowing mask...still slipped safely in his pocket...but by chance, or perhaps some irony of fate, the first man he meets...happens to be the OTHER Leo. WKLeo meets LeoC.

"Greetings, noble friend!"

"Hello, honorable competitor!"

Good grief. And it had yet to truly begin.

"...for I am White Knight Leo, captain of the dragonship destiny, and Althena's guardian!"

"How strange, for I too am Leo...General Leo Christophe, of the army of the Empire!"

WK Leo and LeoC sat there for a considerable length of time discussing the best ways to protect all that was just in the world. What was stranger is that they both worked for not so nice people, despite being men of honor. Must be the name...

TEH Efli

A blinding flash. Then...gold. Everywhere. The sound of rides far off in the distance. Bright lights in every colour of the rainbow.

"Gods...this is so advanced. Yet it's nothing at all like Vector." he whispered to himself.

He looked down to see his sword beside him. He picked it up and turned it this way and that, so it caught the light.

"The marker of my grave. How did it manage to turn up here?" he shook his head, dismissing the thought. It did not matter. Only one thing did.

His face grim, he slid the sword home in it's sheath. Leo Christophé, Knight of the Empire, was back.

He turned to see another Knight.

"Greetings noble friend...."

***

"Ah, there are things I regret, friend Leo." Leo shook his head, trying to shake the memories loose. "I have done some terrible things."

Leo sighed. "I know what you mean Leo, I know what you mean. Yet surely, we wouldn't be human if we didn't have regrets."

Leo nodded. "Too true, Leo, too true..."

Sylphid
FFOS6 - Angela

Alright! Here we go!

Oh, I might as well warn you now that some of this post may be a bit more… er… well, “mature” in humor (well, for my writing, at least), so… enjoy!

----------

Day One

She opened her eyes to another world…

She found herself inside a large room, devoid of life. If there'd been anyone in this room, they'd left long ago...

Many rows of brilliantly coloured seats spread out from all sides of her. At the farthest end lie a large stage with an unusual mural painted on the wall. Whatever this place was, it certainly wasn't Altena...

Angela found her staff at her side, mysteriously transported with her to this unusual place. She turned to reach for it, only to find two strange creatures at her side. One resembled a floating, white ball of flame, while the other looked more like a very small person wearing a green Santa Claus hat that was about six sizes too large for it.

“Oh, thank goodness you’re alright!” the ball of flame said as it eerily floated towards Angela.

The Altenian princess leapt up in defense, clutching her staff in front of her. “Back off!” she shouted, trying to intimidate her opponents. “What do you want with me!?”

“Geez, she’s a feisty one, Wisp! Are you sure we want to waste our time? She looks more like a stripper than a sorceress! I mean, look at that skimpy outfit…” the small creature shouted to the floating flame, bouncing up and down.

“Hey! Who do you think you are!?” the princess shouted in disgust.

“Not now, Gnome!” Wisp retorted. “We’re trying to help her, not traumatize her!”

Obviously, Angela was confused. Whatever these “Wisp” and “Gnome” creatures were, they were certainly… odd. She relaxed a bit. “What are you…? I’ve never seen anything.… wait!” A sudden thought returned to her. Those magic lessons from Jose may have just paid off! “You’re… Wisp and Gnome, the Light and Earth Elementals… aren’t you?”

“Yeah, baby!” Gnome shouted as he bounced higher and higher. “Ya got that right!”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Angela,” Wisp said. “We are indeed two of the eight Elementals of Mana.”

“Uh… hi!” the Princess replied. “But, what are you doing here… hell, what am I doing here? All I remember was Mother in the throne room… then…”

“You passed out, then vanished into thin air. We saw it all,” Wisp answered. “We’ve been watching over you for quite some time… as is normal for those worthy of our powers.”

“Huh?” Angela replied in confusion. “What do you mean?”

Gnome bounced closer, the pompom on his hat bouncing from one side to the other. “Get to the point already, you flaming flop! Angela, he means that you’re worthy of commanding our magics! See, was that so hard to say?”

Her heart leapt at the last thing he said. “Me…? Worthy of commanding magic? I can’t even cast the simplest spell… How can I be worthy of using-”

“Ah, don’t sweat it, Angela!” Gnome interrupted. “With us, you’ll be able to Holy Ball and Diamond Missile with the best of ‘em!”

A gleam of hope shone in her eyes. “Really…?”

Wisp reassured her. “Of course. All you have to do is focus one of us on a target with the spell you want in mind. The rest happens on its own. You’d be surprised how simple it is. Go ahead… try it.” The Light Elemental vanished into thin air.

“Hey! Where’d you go, Wisp…?”

He answered her question.“Don’t worry, I’m right here with you. Go ahead and cast the Holy Ball spell.”

“Aieee! There’s a voice inside my head!” Angela screamed in surprise. This was certainly unexpected… although looking back on what had happened already, it really shouldn’t have been…

“Elementals can communicate with those that possess their powers telepathically. You’ll be able to speak to us, and we can reply physically by appearing before you, or simply answering you through telepathic means.”

“Okay…”

“Don’t worry, we’ll always be at your side. Go ahead and cast Holy Ball.”

“Alright… here goes nothing.” The budding mage clutched her staff and focused on one of the benches and chanted a few words. “Holy Ball!” With a twist of her staff, she pointed her finger at the target. Sure enough, a ball of pure light began to form at her fingertips, growing larger and larger. She focused harder on her task, and the ball of energy rocketed towards the seat, splitting into several spheres and encompassing it completely in a wash of holy power. A beam of energy fired up into the air, frying the target in white-hot energy as the blinding light began to dissipate into nothing, leaving only sparkling, bluish-white specks glowing in the air like fireflies.

“I… did it…!” Angela leapt into the air, ecstatic in her accomplishment.

“Not bad! That was the nicest Holy Ball I’ve seen!” Gnome bounced up and down. “And trust me, I’ve seen PLENTY of Holy Ball spells in my time! Personally, I think you’ll like Diamond Missile better, though…”

Wisp spoke again. “Leave it to Gnome to try and stand me up. You did a great job, Angela. But remember, as a beginner, your Mana power is fairly weak, so you will be unable to cast a large quantity of spells. You’ll need to rest to regenerate your casting power, or simply wait a while and it will gradually return. Or, just eat a Magic Walnut. You should have some in your robe pocket, as well as some other restorative items.”

“Alright!” the princess shouted happily.

“Well, now I know it wasn’t a mistake giving you our power, Angela. Put it to good use in the tournament, alright?” Gnome said as he bounced around, slowly fading away.

“Oh, so that’s where I am…?” Angela questioned her companions.

”Ya got that right! You were still unconscious through Yume's introduction, but no matter.” Gnome replied. ”Give it your all and you’ll definitely go far. We’re behind ya 100%!”

“Thanks, you two!” Angela replied cheerfully. Feeling as if she could take on the world, the young sorceress proceeded on without fear, though she didn’t know what perils awaited her.

And so, a new magician was born.


---
I’ll place the Summary section down here. I’ll be posting votes or obtained abilities here, just so everyone knows what’s going on, and what Angela’s spells do, just in case you want to use her in your storylines as well – and by all means, feel free to do so; just don’t send her flying off a cliff or something evil like that, okay? And of course, if you can find a new use for a spell, go ahead and try that in your storyline, too. Don’t feel restricted to what I put down here, this is just what I can think of off the top of my head. See, isn’t Angela versatile? I’m so glad I picked her!

Gained Abilities
Holy Ball (Spheres of Holy Energy)– Deals Holy Damage / Illuminates darkened areas
Diamond Missile (Shards of Jagged Diamonds)– Deals Earth Damage / Destroys some solid objects / Constructs simple objects (bridges, platforms, etc.)


Okay, going to bed.... there's no way I can wake up in 4½ hours, but I'm gonna have to! Best of luck, and have fun, everyone! This is gonna be a blast!

I'll see you all when I return, which will be approximately 16 hours after this post.

Heart of the Sword

Edit: Still a little bit I needed to do before I posted this.

---

Yume undoubtedly had the gift of the silver tongue- and not a bad taste in swords. Slash let his own blade ride piggyback on his shoulder as he stepped across the chamber. There were quite a few sights to see here, in this 'Gold Saucer'- and that didn't just mean the shining beacons and odd chariots-on-tracks they had around here.

Guy with eight swords, streetwalker in armor, oversized white hamster with black wings, punk with green pajamas, where in Mystica did these clowns come from? Slash scanned the entire room as he proceeded, or as thoroughly as he could. They were a motley bunch- he thought he even recognized a few. In fact, one of them looked like Flea, though the back was turned and the backside was a lot more impressive-

That is Flea!

Slash choked, stumbling in his path. Mumbling apologies to his eyes, he averted them to spot a few other armored figures and striking women. As he straightened his walk, he heard names like "Cecil" and "Celes" pop up. Apparently, he and Flea weren't the only ones here linked by fate. More's the pity. So many will fall here.

He exited the theatre, leaving the many behind, and found himself in a bright, circular space. Slash gritted his teeth and brought a pale blue hand over his eyes- it hurt to see such vermillion light after all that darkness. As his eyes adjusted, he saw that the circle was lined with tubes. Must be the tubes Yume was talking about. Hmm...so you hop down one, and you find yourself in another area. Sorcery at its best...

One tube stood out to him. Slash's deep azure lips twisted up in a smirk.

Battle Square

I hope you bunch are ready to taste pain, thought the Mystic swordsman as he stepped up to the tube. Before this tournament is over, I'll have bathed you all in the crimson grave. The Cold Sword of Great Magus prepares for its slash!

Slash turned one last look at the circled chamber, Station Square. He was prepared for defeat, if it were to meet him- he knew he would not escape unscathed. The auras emanating off the Gathered told him as much- they were all great fighters, in their own way. He'd enjoy crossing blades with many of them; testing skills, unleashing techniques, screaming for blood in the hellish blaze of glorious battle. Slash knew full well what horrors that would birth- but by no means would he resign himself to fate. He'd relished blood as a child its mother's teat; the faceless death would be nothing new to him. Fate was a difficult mistress, but not inexorable.

Only he would have that title.

Slash lovingly gripped his sword, revelling in the texture of its hilt, and stepped into the tube. As the descent took him, he felt the adrenaline begin to pump, and the bloodlust in his hardened arms begin to rise.

The prize will be mine. I'll show them all why I am the Inexorable. I'll show them why I'm the greatest of the Mystic Swordsmen.

Why I'm going to survive.

Gilgamesh arose from his seat straight after the speech.

"Hehehe, this place looks like fun..." he said as he ran towards one of the tubes to explore this place further. He saw a strange long-haired boy who talked funny. "He looks pretty strong...may as well get some experience while i'm here!" Gilgamesh lunged towards the boy with his excalibur, knocking the young one down. "Go way! Gau get food! GOOO!" the boy said as he kicked Gilgamesh's ass and ran away

"DAMN! It's like my sword didn't even phase him! ExDeath...of course...I knew that bastard couldn't be trusted..." he muttered secretively under his breath. He checked his other weapons to see if they were even real...and whaddya know, they were actually fakes!

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEXDEEEEEEEEEEEEATH! Noooooooooo!"

Meanwhile, Gilgamesh decided to start his exploration of the place by going to this so-called "Battle Square", hoping to maybe find some sort of usable weapon and quite possibly a nice challenge as well...

FFOS6: Mog

Mog stumbled through the exit, slightly dazed. He'd just zipped through a tube and landed in a brightly lit area surrounded by more tubes just like the one he had popped out of. He blinked his eyes, not yet used to all the glaring lights. He took a minute to absorb his surroundings... everything was so bright. Once he'd taken it all in, he began to look at all the people - and non-people - around him. So many different beings. So were these the people he would be competing against? Mog gripped his lance. A lot of them were gathering here. Don't just stand around here was all he could think. Just then a maniacal laugh rose above the din. Mog knew that laugh. "Kefka!" he shouted, dumbfounded. "But how- nevermind. I've gotta get outta here, kupo!" He made his way to one of the tubes and dove in head first. In a matter of seconds he found himself in another area, not quite as brightly lit as the other. He saw a man in a chocobo suit. "Yo, where am I?" Mog inquired.
"This is Wonder Square!" the man in the costume answered jovially.
"Thanks! Kupo!" Mog said as he quickly moved past him and up a flight of stairs. He was still quite stricken by his surroundings. Right now I just have to get away and prepare myself. No need to start fighting right away, he thought to himself. I've got to get my bearings straight and then I'm just going to take them as they come. "I wonder where that crazy sasquatch is," he said aloud. He entered the arcade area. More bright lights assaulted his eyes, but now it didn't come as a shock. He walked around marveling at the games, almost forgetting why he was here. Then he came across something that really grabbed his interest... "Mog House?"

FFOS6: Edge

Why am I up this bloody early? Oh well...

I'll probably get caught, grounded, and not be able to participate anymore...

Sigh...

*****

Edge looked around carefully. So many odd people, and...er...things. He scratched his head, then found a nice seat near the back of the theater.

Hmm...I wonder if I'll see anyone I know?

No one had started fighting yet, but he was ready nonetheless. There was no telling when someone would start the first act, and he wanted to be around for the finale.

The King of Eblan waited...

*****

Yeah, it was short. Sorry...

I'll be up in several hours.

Leo looked up sharply at the laughter.

"Kefka..." he hissed from between gritted teeth, and gripped his sword hilt. Hard.

"Who?"

Leo scanned the area, looking for a sign of the maniac. "Kefka." The man's laughter echoed around the square. "The man who killed me."

*gasp*

*wheeze*

Crap.... Almost didn't make it...

----------------------------------------------------------


Systems on-line.


Consciousness.


Not Stonehenge anymore.


Where?





The press of bodies.


Organic life-forms.


Hostile. All of them.


Cannot challenge them. Not yet.


Retreat.





Light. Sound. Pattern.


Speed Square.


Target approaching.


Observe.





The loud clink of unneccesary armour could be heard even above the constant din and racket of the monstrous roller-coaster that the stout little iron man was approaching.
His huge blade was drawn and ready, having been pulled out to help him escape the mass of people that had seemingly appeared out of nowhere.

Yarhh, 'tis naught but a funhouse, this be. What 'ave we 'ere? A giant metal worm? Herr herr, reminds me a bit of home, all these meta' tubes an' gyrating lights. Let's take a look, shall we?





Analyzing.


Threat.


Level: low.


Observe.





What ye be sayin', lass? Prize? Hurr, tha' young dark-headed 'un spoke of a 'Preize'. No preize is oot of range for the greaht Boomer!

With those words, the noisy thing scuttled aboard the small shuttle (not without difficulty) and prepared himself for what he believed would be an easy challenge.

With a sharp click, the coaster car moved up the ramp.





No threat.


Conclusion: easy prey.


Engage.


Destroy.





Boomer was having the ride of his life! The swoosh the air made around him as he traveled at blistering speeds made him feel great! Those blasted little targets kept moving around all the time, but his aim was pretty decent, and he managed to tag most of the airplanes and cacti that kept poping up. After a few rather violent spins, the track straightened out and the shuttle picked up some speed. Stars and annoyingly cute UFOs were now his main targets, but their speed was not enough to dodge his precise blasting.
A giant UFO suddenly decended upon him.

Yarhhh! Ye be no match fer me, yu glohrified tin cahn!

Even with his blaster zapping in quick intervals, Boomer knew his chances at busting up the spaceship were rapidly vanishing as the track started to angle in another direction.

Yarrrrrhhh! I gots ye now!!

Two small specks of light flashed from the UFO. Beams of energy smashed into the hapless lunk of metal, and he fell into the dephts below, shouting about his "dam' prieze" all the way down.





Target disabled.


Area secured.




-----------------------------

(1) Vote against Boomer!


Now off to bed!

"As far as I know," Locke pondered as he wandered aimlessly through the hallway, "Celes and Mog are here. I wonder if any other Returners are."

""EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEXDEEEEEEEEEEEEATH! Noooooooooo!" Someone shouted no less then ten feet behind him. Startled, Locke snapped back to reality and had his dagger in his hand in moments. Turning around, he saw a very strange looking man, with countless weapons strapped to him. Before Locke could do anything, The man jumped into a tube labled 'Battle Arena'.

"I'd say that guys missing a few buttons," Locke mumbled under his breath. He had no intention of fighting him, though, and returned his dagger to his belt. "Celes could have gone through any one of these tubes," Locke thought to himself.

"Well, here goes nothing." He said to no-one in paticular is he jumped into the portal labled "Chocobo Square."

Lutz
TEH Defiant of Time

“YES”
As Lutz replied the whole world seemed to fade away… The grass shrunk, trees became as miniatures… All was replaced by the rushing sound of air.
Lutz looked around him, but could see nothing that he recognised. He was even weaponless.

“Elsydeon?” He said, a note of shock in his voice for he had just moments ago been holding onto it.

”I’m sorry Lutz came the voice that Lutz now recognised as Yume, from within or so it seemed. But that sword part of another world, another legend and you cannot take it with you, it doesn’t belong to you. And if you fail, others will need it more than ever.

“But you never said! If I’d have known I’d have left it myself and taken my own staff!” He shouted to the tunnel of air

”This one? said Yume. A small column of light sharpened, focused in front of Lutz, and an intricately wooden rod, 6 foot long appeared. The sapphire and twin rubies sparkled brilliantly before him. ”I am not unfair you know. Good look Lutz, and welcome to Survivor…

The tunnel suddenly opened, a golden floor rushed up to meet him. He raised his hands protectively towards his face.
It stopped. A calm had settled. He moved his hands… A huge explosion above startled him, sparks fell from the sky.

“What manner of place is this?” He gazed around, people were casually walking past. One man was even in what appeared to be a chicken suit.

Seizing his staff firmly, Lutz brought himself to full height and walked towards what appeared to be a map. A quick glance told him all he needed to know. The Battle arena. That was the logical place to start he thought. And without hesitation he jumped into a tube.


-----------
ARGH!!! Seem to suffering from a bit of writers block. That ain’t too good, so no votes yet.
I’ll wait till things pickup a little, maybe that’ll help.
Oh! May I suggest (I’m being a bit forward here!) That we don’t post any signatures? It will save un-necessary scrolling, and we’re gonna be doing a lot of that! Just a thought.
Good luck one and all!

Munkwunk
FFOS6: Zio

"I come to compete in a tournament and I find myself in a place full of -- what the hell are those things?!" Zio's thoughts were as scattered as the crowd. His eyes catching sight of a white, fuzzy, bat-thing, with antanae...?

"This is going to be more fun than I thought..." he mused. "All these little creatures to pick on. Dark Force will certainly be pleased! Better cast a Magic Barrier before anything happens, though."

Whispering a few words amongst the chatter and noise of the strange room, Zio attempted to preemptively cast a barrier to ward off all harm. Just as his hands finished the movement, a soft fizzling noise was heard, indicating that the spell had failed him. "Damn," Zio cursed to himself. "Dark Force does not exist in this relm... I fear my powers may be limited..."

Not wanting to be a sitting duck, Zio started moving. Watching as people -- things -- crowded through the exits, all in a rush to leave the room as quickly as possible. His eyes darted around, trying to gain some sense of who was who and what was what. Finally, Zio's eyes fixed themselves upon a blue, furry creature wearing a green tunic.

"HIM!" Zio shouted inwardly, not wanting to draw attention. "He was from that pathetic town I burned to the ground mere days ago! A motavian! ...and one of the few who escaped. He should not be so lucky again!"

Deciding it was time to rile things up a bit -- "Might as well start things with a bang!", he thought -- Zio focused his attention on Gryz, the wretched Motavian who had barely escaped his clutches only days before. Stretching his hands, he pointed his palms in the direction of Gryz, a soft word spoken.

"Flaeli!" Zio shouted, and fireballs errupted from his fingertips, searing the air as they laucnhed toward Gryz.

"Better make tracks before you're noticed," Zio thought to himself. Taking advantage of the commotion, he quickly, yet calmly, proceeded toward a tube marked Ghost Square.

_________________________________________________

OOC: Well, I decided to try to shake things up a bit right from the start, being evil and all.

Gilgamesh entered the battle arena with caution. He asked one of the many clerks what this was about, and the clerk pointed at a sign right next to him reading:

"Come one come all, test your strength in the Golden Saucer Battle arena! It's completely safe, and only costs 10 gp! Test your strength against the most powerful monsters on the planet to win GP! Or are you too chicken...?"

"Hmm...GP? I don't have any GP...I guess i'll threaten that guy over there with my fake legendary weapons...they look real enough!"

He unsheathed all his weapons and cornered a guy wearing nothing but a speedo. "GIMME ALL YOUR GP!!" Gilgamesh roared at the skimpy-looking man. "Umm...that's not a good Idea ya know! I happen to be Dio, the owner of this very Golden Saucer, man!" as he said that, 10 security robots surrounded gilgamesh, went into hyper-mode, and aimed all their biggest guns at Gilgy's head.

"...."

*Time to test out my new power...*

"....Get ready...."

"......NOW!"

Gilgamesh became but a blur and completely totaled all 10 security bots within seconds, then collapsed from sheer exhaustion.

"Whoa man! Now dat's some speed ya got there!" Dio shouted in excitement. "Man you sure good at fighting! How's about this; I lend you 10 GP, and yous has to fight in the battle arena. If you win against all 8 groups of enemies, I give you 100 000 GP so yous can do whateva you want. If you lose...well then...you must cater to my every whim, heh..."

Gilgamesh regained his breath, then spoke to Dio once more.

"...so if I lose i'm basically your slave, and if I win I'm rich in Golden Saucer currency...ah whatever, I'll do it. It's not like i'm gonna lose anyways..."

FFOS6: Mog

"Mog House?" he said again. Mog examined the arcade game. 100 gil to play? He looked around - and spotted some coins lying on the floor. "My lucky day, kupo!" He snatched them up and dropped them in the slot. "I got a good head start on the others; I guess I have time to play." The controls were simple enough. But as he played, Mog became more and more bewildered. "Man, this is a cheesy game!" He found himself feeding "Kupo Nuts" to a Moogle named Mog (just like him!) so he could fly and therefore impress a female Moogle. It must've been a kids' game, because he beat it with ease. "Well, that was a waste of my time. Amusing, though. Kupo!"
"That was really good!" Mog turned to see a girl watching him. "You look just like the thing in the game. Here, have 30 GP; you earned it."
"Well, thanks, kupo!" Mog accepted the tokens. OK, enough fun. Time to get down to business! He began surveying the area and preparing himself for what was to come.

FFOS6: Lise

(hey Sylphid! I like that idea.....I hope you don't mind if I copy you!)


Lise entered into the Gold Saucer area. The first thing she noticed was not how shiny everything was, not how much fun everyone was having, and not the fireworks and lights streaming everywhere.

The first thing she noticed was a Mushboom (a cute little enemy mushroom in the game). The Mushboom was on its head spinning around like a top. It looked like it was break-dancing.

Lise: "Little Mushboom, what are you doing?"

Mushboom: "I'm practicing against my fights against the irritating No-Shows."

Lise: "Really? Are the No-Shows bad?"

Mushboom: "Yes! Very bad. I urge you to become a Huntress of No-Shows! That is the highest level you can obtain. What is your current status?"

Lise scratched her head, "well, to be honest with you, I'm just an Amazon right now."

Mushboom: "No problem. Check your equipment and gear and I'll turn you into the Huntress of No-Shows very soon!"

Lise: "Sounds like a deal!"

So they went into the tunnel together.

Bloody August
Où est la Lumière?

Gau was munching on the pieces of dried meat he stolen from the cat around the amusement park and was walking towards the portal with the words "Chocobo Square" on it.

He was really amused with this place. It was bright with neon lights all over and the music was loud. But nothing beat the smell of all the delicious dried meat around.

"WARK!"

"AHH!" Gau jumped up in shock. Standing in front of him is a black chocobo. He recognises it, as he remembers Sabin and the rest riding on it back in the old days, before they went their seperate ways after the defeat of Kefka.

"Wark! Wark!"

"Dried meat? No, bad bird. Gau eat dried meat, no give yellow bird"

"WARK! WARK!!!" the black chocobo began chasing Gau around the place. Gau leapt onto the back of a yellow chocobo and before he knew it, the yellow chocobo was running to a stable full of other chocobos.

"URG!! Stop, let Gau go!"

"WARK WARK WARK~~~!!!"

Sniff...sniff

Suddenly, Gau caught the scent of someone familiar. Someone whom he has not seen for a long time. Who was it?

OOC: nuts, I can only make 1 or 2 more posts...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gilgamesh silently walked into the arena.

*BOOM!*

the door crashed behind him, and a gate started lowering.

"Cuars..." Gilgamesh whispered as three cougar-like animals approached.

Battle 1: Gilgamesh vs. Cuar x3


They wasted no time and all three concentrated an energy blast at him at once. Gilgamesh jumped out of the way, and latched himself on to the wall, where he jumped off and catapulted right onto one of the cuars, defeating it instantly. "I can use that against them..." he thought, as he started beckoning them to come forward. One of the remaining cuars took a leap right into Gilgamesh and slashed his arm pretty badly, as the other ran up and bit Gilgy in the ankle. He then whipped out two of this swords, and threatened them into opposing corners, and they started resonating...

Gilgamesh thought, "Here's my chance!" as the primal beasts fired a radiant ball of energy towards him. Gilgamesh jumped upwards and the balls of energy were now speedily heading towards each of the cuars. Yet, the cuars predicted this and moved out of the way far before the energy hit them. Thinking that he should stop toying with the beasts, Gilgamesh went over and gave them each a swift punch in the jaw which knocked them out cold.

"One group down, seven to go..."

Then the gate started lowering once again...

Cloud Stryfe
FFOS6: Zelda

Zelda and Cloud walked alongside eachother, when suddenly, something fell out of the sky and landed in front of them. On reflex, Zelda shot an arrow into it, and Cloud took a slice at it, it snarled and ran off quickly.

"Arrg...already we're running into competitors...lets move to the gondola...we can survey the place from the sky.." Cloud said, and led Zelda to the gondola entrance.

"We'll be able to watch all the competitors from here.....see who's hostile...who has been thrown here against thier will....and who are just trying to survive....It should give you an edge, however small..."

"Thanks Cloud" Zelda said, giving him a smile, as they stepped onto the gondola.

-------------
One vote to Boomer (Yes, Boomer was the thing that they attacked)

okay...I'm going to bed....don't screw with Cloud and Zelda at the moment...if ya want to say something like "I shot a random blast and it hit someone in a gondola", then fine, but don't take them out of the gondola 'till I get back... Goodnight everyone, and good luck

Lutz
TEH Defiant of Time


Lutz walked away from the battle arena dejected.

“Need some currency before I can enter. Dammit. Yume never said anything about this”

He jumped back into the tube, heading for his original posistion.
As he arrived he saw two figures dashing past, the chaser had a wicked grin on his face… They dived down one of the tubes.
Looking down Lutz saw a young man in a uniform clutching a wound on their arm, the blood was seeping through his fingers.

“Here, let me help” Lutz said as he held his staff low, his right hand high. Small stars appeared in the air, and converged on the wound.

“Hey! Thanks! The wounds healed… Still hurts like mad though. That damned tournament! I told Dio that he should have ristricted it to the Battle Arena, but noooo…. He thinks it’ll be better to allow “Survivor” to run all over the saucer. Doesn’t care about the common folk.
But hey! Thanks anyway! I’m glad you do! Here, take this. It ain’t much, but it’ll last you a while.”

The man gave Lutz a card and a handful of coins.

“That’s 50 gp and 1000 gil. Gill ain’t much use here, except for the races. But the GP will be handy. Anyway, I’d best be off. Much obliged my friend.
If I was you I’d head towards the ghost hotel, you could do with a rest from the looks of things. Bye!”

The man jumped down a tube labled “Chocobo racing” before Lutz could say anything.

“Hmm… Ghosts? I might be able to do something about that…”

Moments later Lutz was in the hotel. Smoke was pouring from the front door, the windows were black except for a few shards of light that escaped from gaps in the curtains.

As he was about to enter when he felt odd… strangly like he felt not more than an hopur ago in that titanic struggle against the Dark Force.

“Ghosts? I think not…”

But now is was more intense… He felt like he was being watched. Turning around he saw a man in black. Deep black that some how went beyond the normal colour range of light.

“You….” The man muttered “I’ve seen you. In my dreams. In the dreams of my master. You how foils him at every turn. Well, Lutz, not this time!”

Lutz reacted immdiatly, firing a burst of ice at the man in the black cape before grabing the handle of the door to the hotel and jumping inside, leaving the howl of pain and fury behind him.

“Can’t fight now. I must rest. Especially if there is an embodiment f the black energy wave here.”

Lutz headed inwards, towards the counter…

Munkwunk
FFOS6: Zio

Spewed out at the end of the tunnel, Zio found himself in a strange room, filled with strange people dressed up as the undead.

"There's a word I recognize..." Zio said to himself as the word "INN" on a sign caught his eye. "I need to rest a bit before I get caught up in the commotion."

Walking up to an empty counter beneath the INN sign, Zio looked around, hoping to find someoen to provide him service.

"DAMN!" he shrieked as a hanging man dropped in front of him, startling even the calloused black mage. "Careful, dead man. You'll be food for Dark Force if you do that again!"

"What do you want? You want to sleep? Show me your GP!" The dead man didn't seem so amused.

"GP? I only have Meseta..."

"GP or nothing. No room for you. Come back when you've got some GP to show me!" Mr. Hangman disappeared again.

Looking around the room, wondering how he would find some "GP" to pay for the room, Zio spotted an unsuspecting target. Faster than one's eye can see, Zio whisked the character into the shadows and and cast Bindwa (OOC: a spell that puts someone to sleep) on him, putting the person out of commission for more than enough time to steal its GP and make off with it. Just then, he noticed that the man was none other than Lutz, an enemy of his God's. "Just barely...." he thought to himself.

Heading back to the counter, preparing himself for the odd clerk, Zio watched as the weird man dropped back from the ceiling.

"You again? Back so soon? We only take GP!" Mr. Hangman didn't look happy -- then again, his neck is in a noose.

"I've got your GP right here," Zio scoffed. "Now let me stay."

Wondering how the magician procued the GP so quickly, but not wanting to question the intimidating man, Mr. Hangman escorted Zio to his room.

"Just a quick nap," Zio said to hismelf, "and then the carnage can truly begin!"

I use One Attack Vote on Lutz, and he gets his sleep at the same time.

Edit: Sorry to do that, Lutz. I was posting while you were, so some things seem to have conflicted there that I had to edit. I hope you don't mind, as I have to get to bed (work tomorrow.)
And as a side note: Since I am a Sidekick now, I don't think I can be attack. Again, I'm really sorry about that... but unsuspecting work is such a bitch! I hope you all understand.

4 wild wolves arose from behind the gate.

Battle #2: Gilgamesh vs. Wolf x4

The wolves snarled at Gilgamesh, and he did nothing but stand still with his eyes closed. "They'll regret attacking me..." he whispered. The wolves surrounded him, ready to pounce. The wolves then began some very strange behavior, and their tails began to separate into four sections...their claws grew 2x their normal size, their legs were all of a sudden filled with muscle, and their faces mutated and spikes emerged from all over their bodies. A little worried, Gilgamesh began to think. "These are no ordinary battles...I'd bet anything that Dio's cheating me...of course! How could I have been so stupid?! Oh well, i'll have to show that freak what kind of fighter I really am!"

Gilgamesh sped towards one of the freshly mutated wolves and split it right in half with Excalipur. He then did the same to one of the others. The wolves further mutated until they were double the size they were before...and they then charged Gilgamesh and bit into his shoulders with their powerful jaws.

"AAAAAAAAAAAUGH!!" Gilgamesh roared as he collapsed to the ground. He thought, "This can't be the end. This is only the second battle afterall...! I CAN'T LOSE!"

He jumped on top of one of the foul beasts and slit it's throat, then beckoned the final wolf to charge at him. It instead gathered the bodies of the other wolves and combined with their flesh...what Gilgamesh saw then was absolutely horrifying. He was so shocked he couldn't move, not at the monster in front of him but the fact that the others might be too much for him. He madly slashed at the monster, and it got few shots in before Gilgamesh had defeated it in his rage.

And with that, the gate again lowered...


"I fear this may be more than I can bear..."

And so it begins

-----

Driscoll smiled quietly. This place... this place was right. A tournament of death and pain, held in an amusement arcade. Heh. Somehow, it appealed to his sense of humour. It was just a shame none of the others were here - Lloyd, Hans, Sakata..

..but then, what good would it serve? These people would die for no other reason than for some god's enjoyment?

Heh.

He smiled again. This place looked to be more fun than he'd expected - if only cause it appealed to his sense of humour!

He looked down and tugged his green coat into place. With all the strange types down here, he needed to maintain some air of respectability. Tidying a stray strand of hair, he noticed a sword handle in his belt. Ah yes.. I used to fence, before the war. Wonder if I still have what it takes, now I'm without.. Karen..

Pulling the sword from it's scabbard, he launched himself into a roll, bringing the blade up to pierce the body of a passing guard.

Standing again, he wiped the blood off the blade onto the guard's body, and leant over to grab his gun.

Aah... an automatic weapon. Now THIS was a bit more familiar to him. He slung the carry-strap over his shoulder, sheathed his sword, and walked on out of the room, humming a soft tune under his breath...

Aquisitions: One Fencing sword, one machine gun. I can't use my Wanzer, so I gotta improvise...

HolyKnightWayne
Dark Knight of Vanda

NOTE: No Votes just yet, despite the fact I'm Dark. I'd just like to see things play out a little more, since I've not played most of the games that are being used here.

-----

Culex stepped out onto the ground and reflexively gasped. Air... vile, horrible air, swirling all around me... it's a wonder I can even... breathe? W... what is this? The foul taint of oxygen permeates everything nearby, and yet....

Then another sensation came to him. I... stepped... out? But I-- But he looked down to see that he did indeed have legs, though they were covered in a sort of robe. His outfit was black with violet trim, and a cape of the same purplish hue was slung over his shoulders and nearly trailed to the ground.

That's right... I remember now.

Yume did not seem disappointed with Culex's refusal of her offer. In fact, Culex thought, she did not seem to feel anything. Culex had sensed her power, of course, as she reached through the dimensions, pulling the warriors that she had promised him from to and fro the multiple universes. Fifty, no more and no less, had accepted her offer to fight for the ultimate prize. Several others were merely present for their own reasons. Like Culex.

Culex pondered these things as he walked through the odd structure Yume had brought them to. It was full of humans, for the most part, a fact that did not seem so terrible now that he could survive in the same environment they did. Many of them were staring, with varying degrees of conspicuousness, at the amethyst tone of his skin and the piercing red eyes which glowed slightly. Or, quite possibly, they wish to determine my strength before they challenge me to battle.

He stopped in front of a sales booth put into place by one of these humans. The individual was a short, dark-haired man with a booming voice, advertising his various wares. Culex approached to look them over, much to the dismay of the shopkeeper.

"Listen, guy. If you're dressed up for the performance, forget it. Some freak show moved in and kicked them out." He spoke brashly and quickly. Evidently, this was a man who did not weigh his words or consider the possibility of angering his foe. He was no Knight.

"I am Culex, Dark Knight of Vanda. I am a warrior, and I--"

"Look, pal, I don't want to hear it. If you're gonna shop, shop. If you wanna fight, then go to the Battle Square." He crossed his arms and glared at the unusual man, and resumed his vigil of the promenade, looking for more customers.

Then a marvelous, wonderful scent caught in Culex's nose. His eyes widened as he looked eagerly for the sight of it... a treasure, perhaps, could indeed be found among the humans. But if the Dark Mage were to discover that I have been involved in such activities.... No matter. The Dark Mage is not here.

Culex reached down as though his hand was lightning and seized the item he sought, upsetting the delicate load of weapons and armor the human was hawking in the walkway.

"Ah, so you want one of those." The man smirked. "They're expensive, you know. Something made out of--"

"I will pay." Culex uttered quickly. "What is your price? I have never seen such work as this."

"3200 Gil. And you should be glad there's a sale going on." He frowned as Culex blinked, clearly surprised. "Oh, no you don't. No Gil, no sale." He reached for the item Culex was holding delicately in both hands.

"Wait, human!" Culex thought quickly. I do not know what this Gil is, but it may be like 'gold,' which other humans use. "Could I interest you in gold?"

The man's eyes widened as Culex placed several large coins of pure gold upon his marble countertop. The icon of a mushroom stamped upon them meant nothing to the human, who stared at them greedily. "Gold... it's really gold! It's so rare these days!" he exclaimed gleefully. "Mako reactors ruin all the precious metals when they tap into the ground. So all people ever use any more is Gil, except for Gold Saucer Points, but they don't work outside here.... Praise the Ancients! Gold!"

"Will this suffice?" Culex asked quickly.

"Oh, yes it will!" he exclaimed, and then, abruptly remembering his role, frowned again. "...but just barely. You should feel lucky I'm in a mood to accept different currency right now." He rapidly shoved the coins over the counter into his hands and chortled happily.

Culex bowed. "I thank you for your generosity. You shall be considered honorable in mine eyes."

The Dark Knight then stared at his treasure lustfully. A Diamond Bangle, they call it... the gems are exquisite! And so luscious and well cut.... Culex gave in to his hunger and ravenously bit into the gems, tearing off a few scattered shards as his powerful teeth and jaws worked into the precious materials. Fortunately for Culex, the entire armorpiece was made of gemstones, and even better was the interior lining, cut from pearl and other softer gems.

The crowd of people staring at Culex only intensified as the shopkeeper, hearing the loud crunching from only a few steps away, turned to see his wealthy but clearly mad patron eating the diamond bangle he had purchased. "By Alexander and all that is Holy..." he began, whispering, but could not control himself and then shouted, "This lunatic is eating diamonds!"

Culex rapidly finished his meal, his ordinarily incredible senses not alerting him to the sound of footsteps behind him. The Dark Knight wiped the slivers from his lipless mouth and bowed once more to the shopkeeper. "I thank you for the great meal. You would do well as a restauranteer for we lithovores." He lifted his head back to normal from his bow, just as he heard a voice call from behind him.

"Okay, okay... what's going on here!?"

Culex turned to face him, and saw before him another human, but this one in the garb and bearing of a warrior.

"Greetings. I am Culex, Dark Knight of Vanda. I have eaten and been refreshed. If you seek to challenge me, I am prepared to fight."

FFOS6: Flammie

Flammie hovered, watching the action below. She had a feeling things would heat up later, but there just wasn't much happening. A few spells had gone off, some swordplay, but nothing to really draw her attention. At the moment, she thought she had seen a few of her friends disappear into transport tubes, but she couldn't be sure.

She felt her wings tiring, and dropped lower, coming to perch on the top of the Chocobo Racing building. She relaxed, stretching her wings out, and closed her eyes for a moment...

Duran - FFOS6

Allright. Here I go.

------

Gazing in wonder at the giant mechanical construction known as the Gold Saucer, the yound swordsman from Forcena then shook his head and decided to focus on the little things instead. All the other fighters had basically moved their seperate ways, leaving him and Yume standing there. She turned to him and gave a soft chuckle.

"Don't you need to get moving? The Gold Saucer is facinating for a while, but now it's promises are all false. Latting your guard down would result in punishment. And yet you still gaze... One would almost think that you were a dreamer, than a fighter..."

"What?" Duran shook himself out of his second stupor, a bit annoyed at the teasing comment, and headed for the Central Tube network. A soft hand stopped him for a moment.

"One more thing. Whereas you needed magical artifacts to change class in that Mana-fading world of yours, this planet is almost *made* of it in the literal effect. This means that the rules for changing your class type could change..."

Duran nodded, a bit unsetteled by the news. He was supposed to find a balance to become stronger... but the power might find him first. He didn't want that to happen. Turning to Yume to show his appreciation, he found it was a futile gesture, as she had already left.

"Allright, then. It's time to prove myself!"

Duran unsheathed his sword leaped into the tube named Wonder Square, trying not to let his armor grind against the wall of the tube as he was shuttled off.

Lutz
TEH Defiant of Time


“Wake up! Wake up!”

Lutz groggily opened his eyes. A man was shaking him, his arm pushing him around.

“You OK pal? You know the beds are up stairs don’t you?”

Lutz struggled to his feet, his muscles in his lower back had seized up and he stretched wide to ease the pain.

”A man, a man in a black cape, have you seen him?” He asked of his waker.

“No, but apparently there was a disturbance here a while ago. Perhaps he caused it.”

Lutz could feel the magic of the Bindwa spell leaving his body, it was powerful, but not powerful enough.

“Yes, perhaps…” Said Lutz. He clicked his fingers and his staff shot up into his out stretched hand.

He raised his hands and a yellow-ish smoke spilled from them, and as it fell to the floor it reacted with something in the air, as a thin red light hung there, like fog.

“What’s that spell? That’s some funny materia you’ve got there friend” said the man shaking his head.

“Materia?” Enquired Lutz “Hmph, no worry, I must be off”

He walked to the stairs, but they curled up in front of him

”What the…!”

“hehehe… you gotta pay before you even try to get up there!”

Lutz turned, the hangman was once again behind the counter

“I take it you is after the person that floored you? Well, he’s up there, but you ain’t going up. Unless you have some cash…”

Checking his pocket Lutz found no gp, only the 1000 gil.

“Nah! We don’t take gil here, just gp. You want some advice? Go to the races and bet that cash” And with that the hangman was slowly hauled back towards the ceiling.

“Damn you, whoever you are” Muttered Lutz, “I will find you and destroy you. All servants of darkness shall perish before me.

He turned around and left the hotel, heading towards the chocobo races.

---------------

Not long after Lutz appeared at the Battle Square, back from the races.
He’d had a little luck on the races, he’d won an “Ether” which was said to restore magic powers and an elixir. However a man near by had persuaded him to sell the Elixir to him so that he might aid his daughter who was terminally ill. The man had insisted on paying Lutz 20gp, despite Lutz’s protest that the man could have the Elixir for such a noble cause. But the man had been adamant, saying he wouldn’t be able to live with himself.
Lutz noticed that a large crowd had gathered around the arena, watching the combatant within.
He gazed in and saw an unlikely warrior. He had four arms!
But Lutz saw he was an awesome close combat fighter. He had quickly disposed of his adversaries with a speed that was impressive to say the least.
In the second round ge looked as though he was beat, but the the wolves fell with a chilling ease, despite the wound on his shoulder.
As the next monster entered the battle Lutz raised his hand and light eradiated from it, and focused on the garishly dressed combatant.

“Lets see how well you do against the next one, with a little slow spell to help you” Grinned Lutz “A true agent of evil wouldn’t let such a little thing bother him, lets see how you do.” And with that Lutz turned and headed towards the tubes.

----------------------------------------
VOTE:- An attack against Gilgamesh.

FFOS6: Setzer

The rest of the contestants had already disbursed, even Yume was no longer in sight. Setzer sat alone for a moment in a secluded corner of the Event Square auditorium, much as he had at the opera house every night for months. Rather than dashing off as all the others had done, he decided to take time to devise an appropriate strategy. He stood and walked over to a map near the exit to familiarise himself with the layout of the place. Eventually his eyes settled on the area labelled Chocobo Racing.

Hmm, a place to earn money Setzer thought, that may be useful.

His cloak whipped round as he turned on his heel and strode out to the hallway. Scanning the row of transit tubes he headed for the one marked Chocobo Square and nimbly jumped in.

It took only a few moments for Setzer to arrive. Looking up he saw a staircase carpeted with purple velvet leading up to a golden dome bathed in a rainbow of light. He ascended the stairs and as he approached the dome could hear the cheers of the winners and the cries of the losers inside.

“I’m home”, he whispered to himself with a smirk.

There was a sudden rush of hot air from the ventilation system as he passed through the doorway and approached the nearest desk. A bored looking employee handed him a flier containing betting information.

It seems this place has it’s own currency. I need some to get started.

Setzer surveyed the punters for a likely candidate. Almost immediately he recognised the classic drooping stance of someone in a major slump. He approached the man and asked what the problem was.

“Damn it all, I had everything bet on Rocket Town Blues”, Cid moaned with a well chewed cigarette flapping from his lower lip. “The useless fleabag fell at the first corner.”

“How terrible”, Setzer feigned sympathy, “the same thing happened to me last week. I tell you what; if we goes halves on the next bet I’ll let you have three quarters of the winnings.”

Cid’s eyes lit up, “Really?” He fumbled around in his pockets and pulled out a single gold coloured coin. “Here’s my last 10GP.”

“Excellent” Setzer smiled, “I’ll add 10 of my own and make the bet. What’s your tip for the next race?”

“Centra’s Handbag is a dead cert!”

Setzer walked over to a desk at the opposite end of the room so that Cid could not see him. He looked at the board for a moment, Centra’s Handbag was at 3:1. {I]The amateur’s choice[/I], he thought to himself. The chocobo looked well groomed and its speed was good, but stamina was lower than Corel Lifer at 25:1.

Making sure that Cid was far enough away that he could not hear, Setzer put the coin on the desk, “10GP on Corel Lifer.”

Setzer’s choice won easily and gained him 250GP. Cid on the other hand left with nothing, having believed that the money had gone on Centra’s Handbag.

“Old times”, Setzer chuckled and looked at the screens for the next race.

He deals the cards to find the answer,
The sacred geometry of chance.
The hidden law of a probable outcome,
The numbers lead a dance.


Fortune favours the bold.
