So, this little baby has been in my head for... 6 years? This was actually the first fanfic I ever thought up. I never wrote it down though. But recently I've been looking up X-2 vidsand this bunny was awoke with vengeance! I'm still gonna write Frozen Reflection, no worries! But I'll also write The Final Dream as well. Originally, this story spanned over X and X-2, but I don't change enough in the X storyline for it to be worth writing, so there's gonna be flashback. A LOT of them. Fair warning. I'll put up the first chapter tomorrow. For now, enjoy this little preview. It starts out at the end of X.


Prologue: Wishing Does Nothing

I stared out into the bay. Yuna was giving her speech to the people of Spira. I knew I should have been there. I WAS one of her Guardians, after all. But not this time. Not now. I looked down at my hands.

"Why did you disappear while I stayed here?" I whispered bitterly, tears fogging up my vision. A gentle hand rested on my shoulder. I looked up into Crystal's face; white, flawless, sharp and beautiful.

"It will be alright." she said, her voice soft, despite her ice appearance. And standing at 6 foot didn't help either. I nodded as she transformed into her Aeon form. I climbed onto her back and flew away. I never want to see anyone again. I want to forget everything.


Sad, bright green eyes watched the ice-white and pale blue bird fly away into the distance.


Please let me know what you think! Here's a little excerpt of the first chapter:

"Ella!" Rikku exclaimed, running after me. She grabbed my arm, stopping me temporarily. "You can't just leave after being MIA for two whole years! I was looking everywhere for you! I thought..." she trailed off, knowing that Yuna and the black-haired girl were listening in.

"Rikku." I said, turning to her. "I don't want to think about it. I don't want to remember. All I want to do is sing until I die." Rikku bit her bottom lip, her bright green eyes pleading.

"Ella, what's happened to you? You used to be so lively-"

"That all died when my brother disappeared back into the Farplane."

Remeber, reviews are love!
