Shadow: The Individual
Based on Final Fantasy 6j/3us

Foreword
The following story was originally written on the spur of the moment to see if I could write it. I had told a friend of mine that I had the urge to write, but I didn't know what to write about so I asked him for an idea. He mentioned Final Fantasy VI and Shadow. The very short story below is the final result of that suggestion. I know it's short. It was meant to be that way. Could I develop this into a real story? Perhaps. Also, about continuity, whoever said it was to take place during the game? Just suspend belief for a while.
Story originally written in late 1998

The black suited ninja just looked at the monster straight in the eyes and said nothing, confusing the monster to the point that it had to look away from him. That was when the ninja struck, jumping in the air and coming down, with his blade out, slicing the creature in two, instantly bringing the monster to it's death. The ninja landed with a light thump, while the heavy body of the monster slammed down hard. The ninja looked around. All the other monsters were gone. He finally let his guard down, expecting no more, but he was wrong. Within a moment, the ninja heard a branch snap in two from a distance. He quickly hid behind a tree in the forest he was in and looked around for the source of the sound.
With the sword in hand and after looking for several noiseless minutes, he finally found the source. It was a human like figure that he could see that was still a distance away, but kept getting close, though slowly. He closely watched the figure as it grew closer, never taking his eyes off of it. Minutes later, he finally realized that it was only one of his teammates, Terra Branford. He took in a deep breath and walked out, putting away his blade.
"Shadow! There you are!" the young green hared woman said. "We've been waiting for you all morning. AND we could have used your help. A band of ogres attacked the camp."
Normally, Shadow rarely talked, but there are always exceptions. "Are you alright?" his voice didn't sound worried, but nether did it sound happy or anything like such. It sounded cold and emotionless, which was fitting for Shadow since his whole life, he has taught himself to be like such.
"Yes, we are fine. I mean, we can take care of ourselves, of course." Terra said. "Now come on, we need to get to the Opera House."
