Chapter 1

The Beginning

"Come on baby let's fight some more!"

"No you idiotic fool."

Shantotto had just finished her readings on how to improve her magic skill by at least five hundred percent. Now she thought that Jecht was here just to bother her on begging her to fight.

"I have more things to do with my life."

Jecht used his left hand to pick her shirt like a kitten, swinging to get in his face, Shantotto cast freeze and instantly he was frozen in a sharp column of ice.

"That should keep you in your place," she added sarcastically knowing that he would just melt it in a matter of seconds. As she sat on her high chair going over her today log and on the first point was to take Tidus to blitz ball practice.

"Wait why do I have to take him?"

"When you lost ping pong that was the wager."

"That's simply isn't fair of my status!"

Jecht tilled her chin upward, growling she bit his finger.

"Don't mess up that pretty face of yours."

"That's not all I plan to mess up!"

"Good now you're heated let's fight!"

"You're on!"

Just at that moment they were both transported to the Duel Coliseum. When they got there roars of crowds were screaming. Glancing at each other they did not know what to think.

"What is this place?" Shantotto asked.

"I'm glad you asked short stuff."

"What did you just call me?"

"You really shouldn't have done that, now it's going to be hectic!"

"Anyway this is the coliseum in which the two of you and many others will fight for your survival and the will to get home will drive the one who wants it the most. Also judging if your love can triumph over all the obstacles in your way. Ding! Dong! Take these gladiators to their stations."

From behind the station Shantotto could hear his voice with a menacing sound.

Turning to back to Jecht she noticed that she was going the opposite way that he was going.

"Shantotto I'll come for you!"

"No I am not the damsel in distress so we'll meet again soon. My corrections are correct very soon."

When they parted Jecht didn't feel like fighting, he just wanted his little Shantotto back and if this was the way to get her back then so be it.

"SHANTOTTOOOOOOOOOOO!"

From the other side of the coliseum she heard his voice and smiled as she thought.

"He's an idiot, but he's my big idiot."

She found herself falling asleep in all of the noise that was going on.
