The Angel Within

Chapter One:

Girls from Another World

On a warm summer afternoon Kayli, Keshia, Lilly, and Kadye were all camping at Lilly's house on her huge lawn. They were all arguing on who should go out with what famous guy.

"I think KayKay should marry Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy 7," said Lilly giggling.

"WHAT? Lill, I'm suppose to date and get to know the guy before I marry him, besides Tifa has deep feelings for Cloud but unfortunately she's having a hard time telling him because Cloud is always on delivery runs. He lives at Aerith's church, which is located in Sector 5. He's pretty much lives in solitude."

Kayli breathed and continued. "He blames himself for Aerith's death. The thought of her death weighs him down mentally. Cloud can hardly do anything without thinking of Aerith. Tifa tries to cheer him up but even that doesn't work sometimes. Tifa and Cloud knew each other since childhood. I couldn't 'take' Cloud from her, I just wouldn't feel right in doing that to either of them," said Kayli as her cheeks suddenly turned a deep crimson colour.

"She likes someone else," said Keshia simply.

"What? Who does she like Keshia?" asked a very curious Lilly.

"Sephiroth," said Keshia.

"Who?" asked Kadye.

"Sephiroth, the evil guy with the longsword and ankle length silverish-blue hair," said Keshia.

"The long sword is called a masamune and besides, how would you know who I like Kesh?" asked Kayli.

"You called out his name in your sleep when you last slept over our house when mom, dad and Kadye went away for Kadye's away game." Keshia had a hug smile on her face.

Kayli's face turned a deep scarlet colour.

"Look at Kay's face!" Lilly rolled on the floor laughing.

"So what if I have a crush on Sephiroth. I've always liked him, even though he's a bad guy. For as long as I first was told about Final Fantasy 7 when I first 'fell' in love with Sephi." said Kayli.

"She even has a nickname for him," said Lilly laughing still.

"Geez, give it a rest Lil. Will ya?" said Kayli as she tried to regain her senses. "So what if I have a nickname for him."

Keshia smirked.

"You're the one who started this Keshia," said Kayli.

"Hey Kay, do you have the Advent Children DVD with you?" asked Lilly.

"Yeah why?" Kayli raised an eyebrow.

"Let's watch it so that Kadye can actually understand what the heck we're talking about," said Lilly.

Keshia, Kadye Lilly, and Kayli crawl out of the tent and head for Lilly's house to watch the Final Fantasy VII Advent Children DVD.

"Hey Lil, wait a second," said Kayli.

Kadye, Keshia and Lilly stop walking.

"Kadye 'n' Kesh, We'll meet you two inside I have to ask Lil something," said Kayli.

Both Kadye and Keshia went inside the house.

"What's up Kay?" asked Lilly.

"Well, before we go and watch the movie I figured this is the best time to give this to you now close your eyes for a second", Kayli handed Lilly a gift.

With Lilly's eyes still closed, she felt the gift to see if she could guess what it was.

"Well, it's soft like a pillow, it's pretty big…" Lilly started.

Kayli laughed. "Just open your eyes, Silly Lilly." Kayli poked Lilly softly to make her open her eyes.

Lilly opened her eyes. To her wildest dreams, she held a stuffed Pink Moogle. Lilly gasped. "IT'S A MOOGLE!?" Lilly screeched and hugged Kayli.

Kayli laughed. "By your reaction Lil, am I to assume that you like it?" asked Kayli.

"Oh KayKay, I LOVE it. Thanks."

"I'm glad you like it. It took me forever to make it. The pompom was the hardest. At first I tried making it, but I gave up after one or two tries so I bought one instead."

"You made this?" asked Lilly.

"Yup! Hey maybe we should head in. Keshia and Kadye are waiting for us," said Kayli.

Kayli's cellphone started to ring. The ring tone was 'Victory at Fanfeir' a Final Fantasy 7 ring tone.

"Moshi, Moshi, Katelyn," said Kayli.

"How did you know it was me?" asked Katelyn.

"My caller ID on my phone, what's up?" asked Kayli.

"I just downloaded Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children and I'm about to watch it now. I also downloaded a bunch of pics for you too," said Katelyn.

"Cool thanks. By the way me, Lilly, Keshia and her little sister, Kadye are just about to watch Advent Children too," said Kayli to Katelyn.

"Well I'll let you go. I just want to let you know about the pics. Ja Na," said Katelyn as she said bye.

Kayli pressed end on her cell. "That was my friend Katelyn telling me she found more pics of FF7 and also she had just finished downloading 'Advent Children' and is about to watch it too. Come on Lil, let's go and watch it too," Kayli placed her arms around Lilly's shoulders.

Inside of Lilly's house, Kadye and Keshia were downstairs waiting for Kayli and Lilly.

"Here girls." Kelli was in the kitchen holding a big bowl of popcorn.

"Thanks Kell." said Kayli.

"You're welcome." said Kelli.

Kayli and Lilly walked downstairs.

"Finally." said Keshia.

"Oh, shut up Kesh," said Kayli.

"Are we ever going to watch the movie?" asked Kadye.

"Yes we are." Kayli put down the bowl of popcorn and placed the DVD into the DVD player.

A soft rumble was heard outside.

"I hope we don't lose power, I really want to see Sephi," said Kayli.

"SSSHHH it's starting," said Keshia.

'Sephiroth…' thought Kayli to herself.

Suddenly there was a flash of light. Everyone screamed. Then all went black.

When everyone came to, they noticed that Kayli was already awake.

Keshia, Lilly, and Kadye looked around. They where standing in a huge rocky terrain.

"What you looking at Kay?" asked Lilly.

With her mouth open wide, Kayli pointed. "Lill, lo…ook."

Lilly got up and walked over to where Kayli was standing. "EEEAAAKKKK? That's the ruins of Midgar?"

"Then that means that we are in my DVD…oh, wow!?" said Kayli.

"What are you two talking about." asked Keshia as she stood up and brushed herself off.

"Yeah, where are we?" wondered Kadye.

"I assume that from the flash of lightning, and the fact that we were watching Advent Children, we somehow were sucked into the movie."

Kayli put her hands into her pockets and gasped. She pulled out her Palm Pilot. "It's a good thing that I put Final Fantasy 7 info on here."

Without any warning, there was a voice. "In coming!"

A person fell on top of Kayli.

"Oof! Hey get off of me!" yelled Kayli.

"Sorry...KAYLI?" said the person.

Kayli gasped. "Katelyn?"

Katelyn got off of Kayli.

"Boy I'm glad you don't weigh anything." said Kayli looking at Katelyn.

Katelyn smiled at Kayli. "What are you...where are we?" Katelyn looked around.

"From the looks of it, we might be in 'Final Fantasy 7' world, to be precise that's the ruins of former Midgar over there. " said Kayli as she points to what looks like a city in ruins.

"How did I get here then?" asked Katelyn.

"Katelyn, you were watching 'Advent Children too right? Was it thundering at the Cape?" Kayli folded her arms.

"Actually, there were a few flashes and rumbles," said Katelyn.

"How strange." Kayli sits on a near by rock and thinks. "Somehow we were all pulled into here but how? It even baffles me." Kayli stands up and stretches. "Well, while we're here do you guys wanna make the best of it?"

"Sure." said Katelyn, Keshia, Kadye, and Lilly.

"How are we going to get anywhere? We don't even have any means of transportation?" asked Keshia.

Suddenly there were shadows that surrounded the girls.

"WHAT IS GOING ON‼" yelled Katelyn.

Kayli clutched her stomach. "I feel like I'm going to be sick."

"KAYLI‼" yelled the girls.

"These are Shadowcreepers," said Kayli.

Just as Kayli said that, the Shadowcreepers appeared in their full forms.

"What are we going to do?" asked Kadye.

"We can't defend ourselves," said Lilly.

"I can't kill them with my bare hands." said Keshia.

Kayli closed her eyes and thought to herself, 'Please I need a weapon to protect my friends.'

Suddenly from Kayli's hands, a sword was produce out of thin air. She stared at the masumune.

"What the heck? How did I…" Kayli instantly sensed that a Shadow creeper was about to attack. She swung the blade and destroyed the Shadow creeper.

While Kayli was fighting the rest of the girls looked in awe. "How did Kay do that?" asked Lilly. "Don't know Lil. Don't know." said Keshia.

Kayli ran as fast as she could, destroying the Shadowcreepers until there were no more. She stood still breathing heavily. "How did I summon this…" She held up the 6ft blade. "…let a lone wield it?"

Lilly flung herself to Kayli. "Kay you're awesome!"

"LIL CAREFUL! I'm still holding a sword. Hold on maybe I summon a sheathe for this thing." Kayli closed her eyes. She pictured the masumune to be sheathed.

Suddenly the masumune was sheathed.

"Impressive Kayli." said Katelyn.

Kayli gave a wide grin. "Thanks."

"How are we going to get out of here?" Keshia said as she placed her hands on her hips.

"I got an idea Kesh," said Kayli.

"What?" Keshia looked at Kayli.

"You like wolves' right? Why don't you summon Nanaki rather Red XIII her with his pack if he has one and have them bring us to Seventh Haven Bar. He basically is a wolf in the game and movie. See if you can truly be 'One with the Wild'." Kayli smirks.

Lilly giggles.

"I'll try." Keshia closes her eyes and lets out a loud, deep bellowing of a roar.

"Cool Kesh." said Lilly.

"I should put this away before anyone sees this." Kayli closed her eyes once more and dismissed the masumune. All of a sudden, the masumune disappeared.

"I don't think it's going to…" began Keshia when all of a sudden Red XIII came running towards them.

"Who summoned us?" asked Red XIII.

"I did, Nanaki," said Keshia bowing to Red XIII.

Red XIII looked at Keshia. "You know of my true name how?"

"My friends and I aren't from around here…" Keshia looked at Kayli. "Maybe you should explain Kayli."

"Okay Kesh." Kayli looked at Red XIII. "Like my cousin was saying, we aren't from around here. It's complicated to fully explain how we got here but…" Kayli searched for the right words. She continues, "…an unknown force brought us to your world. We were wondering if it's possible if you and your pack could give us a ride to Tifa's bar located in Edge. I know what you're going to say. How do I know about Tifa. Well that is also a long story. In due time I'll explain everything, right now…" All of a sudden, Kayli felt a sharp pain in her arm and collapsed to the ground clutching her arm.

The girls ran to her side.

"Kayli what's wrong?" asked Katelyn as she picked up Kayli's head and rested it on her lap.

"I…don't know…I…" Kayli's body started to shake uncontrollably.

Katelyn placed her hand on Kayli's forehead and looked up at the rest of the girls. "We have to get her help and fast. She's burning up."
