Disclaimer- I dinnae own Ziddy, he's apart of Final Fantasy 9 which is owned by, err... Playstation? Right?
Okay, this is a one-shot fic, I was writing this the other night after reading other amazing Final Fantasy 9 stories, if you want to know what ones check my Favourite Stories list, anyways I don't know if it's good or not, but if I don't get any or many reviews at all, I'll just delete the story or something, but if it is liked then I will continue.
So please if you do think this story might be able to work review, thanks, by the way, I'll be leaving it like for two to three weeks to see how many reviews I get, kay?
Treason or Torture?
Zidane growled angrily, his tail arched over him, as he was standing in a defensive pose.
"Angel of Pain... You must come with me..." Garland ordered slowly.
Zidane hissed furiously like a cat, "No chance! You may have got Kuja, but you'll never get me under that dark magic spell of yours!"
"Oh, is that right?" Garland sneered, "Well, I guess I could leave you alone..." he paused, "And take your friends' lives as a replacement?"
Zidane looked at his former master with fear, surprise and disbelief, "You wouldn't..."
"Oh, Angel of Pain..." Garland smirked evilly, "I would..."
Suddenly, Zidane felt all the hope he had left inside him drain away, it was either him or his friends... And of course, Zidane being Zidane... It would be him...
Zidane sighed heavily, "Just what is it you want me to do?"
"Destroy Alexandria, and kill its reigning Queen..." Garland replied.
Zidane paused, "But Alexandria's current Queen is..." suddenly fear welded up inside Zidane, he was being told to kill the one true love in his life, "...Garnet..."
Garland grinned evilly, "Complete this task and I will spare your life, and the lives of your worthless friends."
"But, Garnet is one of my 'worthless' friends!" Zidane cried desperately, he was taking any chance to get out of killing Garnet, it was just something he couldn't do!
"Maybe, but if you disagree with our little arrangement, then I will be forced to kill all your friends..." Garland paused, as he stepped closer to Zidane, making Zidane jump back a few, "What's worse? The death of one, or the death of many?"
Zidane hesitated, he knew if he were to explain this story to everyone, they would definitely pick the Queen's life over theirs!
Garland noticed his Angel's hesitation, so he decided to push it more, "Or how about I double it? The Queen's life for every single person within the Mist Continuant?" he paused, "Including your friends of course!"
Zidane's eyes widened, now there were millions of lives at stake! What should he do?
I wish Garnet was here... If she was, she'd be helping me to make the right decision, just like she always did... Garnet...
"I-I.... I...." Zidane stuttered, What should I say?? What should I say??
"Times running out, my Angel," Garland sneered, "What is your decision?"
"I... I..." Zidane held his head in pain, he was so unsure what to do, and he had to chose all on his own, with no one to help him just like when he was a little kid, "I... I'll kill the Queen!!" he cried.
Garland grinned proudly, "I knew you'd chose the right one Pain... Now be gone!"
Suddenly, the Iifa tree, where Zidane had woken up in, started to glow a bright white colour, then Zidane felt himself slowly fall unconscious...
Please tell me, should I continue or not??
