Remake of

The Reality Paradox

By Vincent 'The Vampire' Valentine

Chapter 1: Prologue

As a 16 year old teenager you would expect life to be hard, I mean some teenagers get jobs at fast food restaurants or cinemas or whatnot… but not me. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Vincent Valentine, I attend Balamb School of combat and magic and lead a pretty good laid back life, but I am suffering the drudgery of depression. I would really not like to talk about it, but you may just hear the sad tale some day.

It's around 8:30PM and I'm watching 'Final Fantasy: Last Order' on my sphere player (sphere's are like MP3 players only you can listen to music and watch movies). The lights are off but the light from the sphere puts some colour on my pale face. Although light cannot penetrate my raven black hair, I think it's turning gray.

Enough about that for now though. It's coming up to 10PM so I best go to bed. I put on my chocobo pyjamas and go to sleep (If your wondering what chocobo's are, they are bird-like creatures that inhabit the world).

When I wake up in the morning I put on my cloths: a blue shirt with a red tie, black shoes and trousers. When I have my breakfast I set off for school.

The journey is not so hard since Balamb is only half a mile from Balamb town. If I keep to the road I don't meet any monsters but sometimes I feel adventurous and explore the fire cavern near Balamb.

When I get to school I found a magic draw point and if you whisper "Come to me" you will suddenly gain more magic. Draw points came to Earth around the time when the monsters fell from the moon.

(From this part of the story onwards it will still be Vincent's POV but other people will talk)

'Vinnie' said a cheerful voice 'nice to see you, how was your summer?'

It was Yuffie, a girl who lived in the same street as me, also around the same age as me, she had quite a crazy personality but she is cool. She wore a green top with no sleeves and light brown shorts.

'Hello Yuffie, it's good to see you too, listen, I got Final Fantasy: Last Order on my sphere player' I said in a slightly happier voice than usual.

'Wait, you got WHAT'

'Final Fantasy: Last Order'

'You are so lucky, can I watch it pleeeeeease?'

She gave me the puppy dog eye look.

'Yeah, come over to my house later'

'Yaaaay' shouted Yuffie, she started dancing in joy.

'Ok Yuff, I think that's enough'

She didn't hear me.

'I'm going to my locker; do you want to come with me? It's got your birthday present in it' I provoked her

'Present, yay present' she sang as she started dancing again.

It was true, Yuffie's birthday was tomorrow.

When we got to my locker, I opened it, it contained loads of Final Fantasy pictures, and I took Yuffie's present from the top shelf. I handed it to her, she looked all exited.

'Can I open it now?' she asked.

'Wait until tomorrow'

'C'mon'

'Nope'

The bell went off telling us to get to class.

'Fine you win' said Yuffie with a sad look.

'If you opened it now then it will get stolen'

'That's true'

And with that, I took my Balamb issued pistol from my locker, holstered it, and proceeded with Yuffie into class.
