Life! Trust! Belief in a higher force. I was what I was meant to be. I was human and yet I was tired of my life. The days were long and I hoped for shorter ones. I wanted an adventure. I wanted to find my place in this life but always turned up at dead ends. I wanted to find the guy of my dreams. No where to look while my parents yelled and emphasized the importance of life. Tired and hoping for a change. Nothing looked so hopeful as an adventure.
Sitting in the middle of my bed I drew a picture of a dragon. Dragons were my favorite and to be truthful have been since I was little. I saw them in my dreams and even saw myself as one. Their shining scales and their graceful wings stroking the air to ascend into the skies. Flame dancing from their mouths and eye's that bore into the very soul of a person.
The dragon I drew was something I saw in my mind and heart. I loved dragons and didn't like to hurt them whenever I played my games. I believed that they were guardians of the young. I was not young anymore but I still had a little bit of innocence. I have seen dragons from books and places that I had not heard of yet until years later.
I guess you could call me something of a special person. I can see the future and the past like a movie. I have even appeared to people as something that they have faith in like a Goddess or a God. I am like a messenger or . . .
The pictures on my wall began to stir as if there was a wind in the room. That or as if the window was open or something. I could feel the warmness of this wind. When I turned toward the window and I soon realized that they were closed . . . Something was going to happen. I looked back at the pictures above my bed and realized that it was happening. I was going to get my wish. The question was, which one?
My body was tingling now and it felt like I was being pulled apart. Every inch was being grabbed and pulled at. My arms were hugging my chest and I felt like I was being watched. Slowly I got up and put my shoes on. If I was going to go anywhere I was going to have to put shoes on. I grabbed my backpack and put a change of cloths inside. I ran downstairs and grabbed a pot and some provisions. Running back upstairs I stuffed my backpack with the things I needed.
I didn't know how long I would be gone but I had to leave a note for my parent so that they would not have to worry to much. After writing them a note, I again looked at the faces of the pictures on the wall.
"I'm ready to go."
The wind was back and know in full force. My pack was on my back and I felt myself lifted in the air. Actually I was lifted into the air into a portal above my bed.
I was tousled to and frow by the strong wind. All the worlds I wanted to go to tried seeping in to my mind. Only one world slipped into my head. I finally knew my destination. I was going to Final Fantasy Nine. The portal was purple now and I found myself falling. One name charged it's way into my head..
"Diablos! AHHHhhhhaaaaa!!!!!"
There was a burst of light and a ball of energy formed. From the ball of energy Diablos came forth. He saw me falling and raced in a steep dive to catch me. It was like time had gone very slow but in the next moment I was in his arms. He flew down to the ground and put me onto my feet.
"Thank you."
"You are welcome for I serve only you and no one else. I am yours to command." He said. His voice was a husky but lilting voice that had trust written in the wind of his speech.
"As I will, too." Several voices shouted out to me from inside of me.
In the next second several monsters appeared before my eye's. They were summons really and I could name each one. Quenzeqoutle, Neo-Bahamut, Bahamut-Zero, Eden, Knights of the Round, Diablos, Pandemonia, Choco-Mog, Cerberus, and Titan all stood before me. I could sense the power that they all had. They were mine and I could call upon them when I needed their help. There was one other summon that came forward that I had not noticed. It was the Brothers.
They looked like centaurs but were tough Earth summons when they needed to be.
"We to will help." At this all summons nodded.
"Heyy! Don't forget about me?!" A soft musical voice yelled out.
Behind the brothers walked a lady with wings on her head and feathers that stuck out of her hips. It was Siren. She not only hit the opponent but cast silence on the enemy no matter whether they were a boss or not. In fact each summons power was tweaked and their attacking methods had also changed. For example, Eden who could hit over 9999 hit points could now restore everyone's magic points. It was surprising that they had changed.
"Oh! By the way you can have these." Diablos said. He handed me ten cards. Before long I had been given over a hundred cards, one hundred and fifty to be exact. The cards themselves had all their arrows and therefore I know had the highest ranking score in Tetris.
"Thanks everyone." They each nodded in turn. Bahamut-Zero came forward and it seemed like he wanted to have a word with me.
"I want you to have this. I know you will find some use for it." From his hands he produced a staff. It was silver and seemed to glow with an inner ability.
"This is the Dragon Staff. It allows you to trance faster and to float on command." He then gave me some other things so that fighting other monsters along the way would be easier. The items were all dragon related. From a dragon wrist to a dragon orb to a dragon vest I equipped them all. I stowed away the cards I was given. When I looked back at all the summons they were glowing and becoming points of light. The lights swirled into a small orb and raced toward me and into my chest.
Inside I could feel all their personalities. I now knew what they liked and what they did not like. They had become apart of me and they knew my heart. I wasn't greedy but I sometimes become confused. In those times of confusion they would be there to comfort me. After all I was a long way from home.
"Heyy! You there!" Looking around I saw who it was and nearly gasped. It was Zidane while Garnet, Vivi and Steiner towed behind.
"What! Why are we stopping? You scoundrel! You better not be thinking about hurting the princess." Steiner seemed to complain openly to the whole world. I mean after all he was shouting.
"Oh, don't worry about him, he's always like this. By the way I'm Zidane that is Princess Garnet. The little mage there is Vivi and the man in rusty armor is Steiner. So, what's your . . ."
"Ahh! Zidane you might have told the whole world that I'm traveling. What are thinking . . ."
'laughing,' "My name is Natasha. I'm a mage as well. I use summons and a combination of black magic as well as white."
"Well, if that is true then would you like to join us then." Zidane asked.
"Sure! I would be most delighted to join your party."
"All right guys lets get moving. Were heading for the Ice Cavern. We have to get above the mist." Everyone nodded.
Zidane took the lead while I walked with Garnet. I asked her if she knew how to use summons. She asked why. I didn't know how to tell her that the summons I possessed were forgotten so long ago. The only problem with Garnet was that she did not have enough magic points to summon them.
"MP is used to summon the Eidolons I have. With all the summons you've told me about, I don't remember hearing about any of them. It's like their all forgotten over time."
"Heyy! Guys! Watch out." Zidane yelled. Before I knew I was in a battle against a few pythons.
"Zidane I'm going to use a summon so don't attack just, yet."
"All right but hurry up over there. There attacking like crazy." I nodded.
"Bahamut-Zero!
There was a flash and the party was now protected. Above our heads Bahamut's older brother charged up and took aim at the pythons. A beam was thrown down on the enemy and all three were gone. Bahamut-Zero saluted me and then disappeared inside me to await when I would call him again. Half my magic points was gone.
"Wow! How many summons did you say you have?" Zidane asked.
"I have a total of twelve summons. In actuality I could learn a few more like Alexander, Cactaur, Tonberry and Doomtrain. They are the only summons I don't know yet."
"Wow! That's a lot of summons to know. How did you get a hold of them anyhow?" Vivi asked curiously.
"It's not a matter of how but the answer that they decided to come with me. Neo-Bahamut and the others gave me cards and weapons so that I could survive without any problems. I believe in them enough and they believe in me. It's this tie that brought us together to form a team. A team that could stand just about anything." I replied.
" . . . . . ." Garnet stayed quiet.
I think I was the only one to ever know that many summons. As for my level… I am at level twenty-one. No one said anything until we reached the Ice Cavern. Though I think I overdid it with my speech about the summons I knew. I mean Garnet couldn't even use her summons yet due to lack of magic points.
Sitting in the middle of my bed I drew a picture of a dragon. Dragons were my favorite and to be truthful have been since I was little. I saw them in my dreams and even saw myself as one.
