Chapter 1: The Box

"Filo! Don't rush out just all of the sudden! There might be fiends around!" "I know, don't worry I'll be fine! Don't be such a whiner Vaan!" she yelled. "Don't worry so much Vaan, you've been tense lately, normally you would be the one rushing out all of the sudden" Penelo said while looking at Vaan.

"I know but I have this strange feeling lately as if there is something inside which just won't come out." Vaan replied. "Look guys! I've found something on the radar!" Kytes yelled. Vaan and penelo rushed towards Kytes and looked at the radar. "Let's go take a look, it might be something worth of value, isn't that right Vaan?" "I suppose you're right let's go Kytes!" "Don't worry about me guys, I'll wait in the ship and cook something for you guys." Penelo said. "Well then don't let it burn again!" Vaan replied with a big smile on his face.

As the two run off to get Filo, Penelo walked back into the ship. "Finally Filo, we found a treasure let's go! Kytes yelled" The threesome walked into the direction they saw on the radar and looked for the treasure. "A cave... I don't like caves too much... I really can't see a thing in here" said Kytes. "Don't worry I have a flashlight" Filo replied. "There is a heavy air here Vaan... do you notice?" Kytes asked. That's not the air Vaan replied, it's the Mist that is so thick here, but don't worry we are close" "That shadow looks like a big beast over there" Filo said "Stop it Filo it isn't funny" Kytes replied. "Stop it you guys the treasure its over there by those glowing rocks, do you see it", Vaan said. "It looks old..." Filo replied. "Let's get the treasure and go Vaan, I don't like this place at all..." "What's the matter Kytes! Got scared! Pwaaak-pwak-pwak!" Filo said. "It's not that Filo!" Kytes replied, "Just this place gives me the creeps". "Well we have the treasure so let's return to the ship" Vaan said.

Vaan and Kytes walked toward the ship when they suddenly hear a scream, "WHAT WAS THAT!" Kytes screamed, "Filo!" even before thinking Vaan and he rushed back to where they found the treasure.

"What is that! Kytes yelled", Vaan looked up, "oh gosh... we are in some serious trouble. Filo can you move?" Filo nodded, "then run when we distract it, ok?" Vaan said.

Vaan rushed toward the creature with his sword and Kytes was casting his Blizzard spell on him from a distance. "Kytes! Use your stop magic!" Vaan yelled. "Will do!" Kytes replied. After the spell the creature stood as still as a stone, "Now Filo run, we too Kytes!" Vaan yelled.

After running for some time they see the airship, Kytes is looking behind him and tries to catch his breath. "Few that was a close call!" he said. "Filo never leave the group again ok?" Vaan said. "Don't worry I won't! Ever!" said Filo. "What exactly was that creature Vaan?" Kytes asked. "A Wyvren, they can be a bit aggressive when you wake them. They are only active at night so that's why you shouldn't wake the sleeping Filo." Vaan explained. "No kidding!" Filo said with a strange face. Vaan and Kytes started laughing because of her. "Let's get back to the ship" Vaan said. "Yes, Captain!!" they yelled.
