FINAL FANTASY IX

AUTHORS NOTE: Remember when Quina left the party once they had arrived on the Outer Continent and met Eiko? And do you also remember that the party left him/her behind when they returned to Alexandria on Queen Brahne's ship? Well, this is how Quina got back to Lindblum!

Quina Gets Abandoned and Stuff

"Where Zidane?! Where black mage?! Where princess?! Where little girl?! Where moogle?! Where I?!" Quina said.

The Qu was lost on the Outer Continent. S/he remembered that Zidane and the others had been here recently, but now there was no sign of them at all. S/he wandered helplessly around Madain Sari desperately trying to figure out where they had gone.

"Dummy-dummies go off and leave I alone... I no make any sense of this."

Quina decided to ask the friendly moogles for help. Maybe they knew where the party had gone. S/he approached Momatose who was hanging out in Eiko's house.

"Hey, moogle! You know where Zidane gone?" Quina said.

"Didn't they go off to the Iifa Tree, kupo?"

"I not know! I just wait here and they no come back! Maybe they get eaten by horrible monster!"

"Kupo, I doubt it. Why don't you try the Iifa Tree?" Momatose said.

"I no go there! Is scary!" s/he shivered in fear.

"Well, then the only other thing you can do is wait around here until they come back."

"I get bored! I go out for walk while I wait!"

Quina ran out of the village and explored the countryside. S/he then noticed a group of people down on the beach. They all lifted something onto a boat, then jumped aboard and sailed away into the distance. It took Quina a while to discover who those people were.

"Was that friends?! Did friends just climb on boat and leave?!" s/he said.

S/he then dashed off towards the beach, causing mini earthquakes on the way due to his/her weight. S/he eventually reached the beach and found the footprints of his/her good friends in the sand. S/he sighed in frustration.

"Zidane and others were here recently. They no leave on big boat, did they? They no leave I alone on this continent?! I scared! I very scared!" Quina looked around for a way out of this mess, but came up with nothing. "I know! I have to go back on my own! But no transport there is! How I get back to Mist Continent?!"

S/he decided to run back over to Fossil Roo. It didn't take him/her long to get there, but there was an unexpected surprise waiting for him/her when s/he did.

"Oh, no! Who you?!" s/he said.

Two villagers from Conde Petie stood outside the entrance to Fossil Roo.

"Rally-ho!"

"Rally-ho yourself!" Quina said.

"Rally-ho! Ye cannae enter Fossil Roo until ye say Rally-ho!"

"Rally-ho yourself! I no in mood for stupid games!"

Quina then selected the command "Eat" from his/her battle menu. S/he instantly devoured the villagers.

"Quina learned Rally-ho!" s/he laughed.

Suddenly, an earthquake shook the ground, and the entrance to Fossil Roo collapsed. There was no way Quina could get through now.

"Oh, I so angry!" s/he belowed. "I know! I swim back!"

And with that, Quina jumped into the ocean and began to paddle back to the Mist Continent. Unfortunately, s/he became exausted and gave up half way. A few days later, in Lindblum, two guards discovered something fat and smelly on the dock and, hell, you know what happens next. I don't think I need to explain it.
