Disclaimer: I did not own Final Fantasy XII and any of its characters, places and all of the things inside the game. I'm just a fan and I write only for fun.
Author's Note: This is my second FFXII fanfic. I think this chapter is too short, but I'll try to make the next chapters longer. Feel free to review.
The Treasure
Chapter 1: Buried Treasure
A glint on the sand caught Vaan's attention and he walked towards it.
Must be gil that someone have dropped… he thought.
But then he realizes that it is not even a piece of gil. It is only a tip of something bigger, the rest of it buried in the sand.
"Balthier, come here. I found something"
Balthier snorts and walked up to Vaan
"What is it?" he asked
"Don't know. Maybe a treasure or something like that"
The thought of treasure made Balthier's eyes widened.
They dig up the thing and found it to be a small gold pot with two handles on its sides.
"Looks like a rare treasure. Must be expensive" Balthier said as he admired the pot's beautiful, intricate design carved on it.
Vaan, noticing the greedy look in Balthier's eyes said to him
"I found it so it's mine"
"But when I take it from you, it'll be mine" Balthier grinned.
"No, it's mine!" Vaan said as he tried to snatch the pot from Balthier's hands.
Vaan got hold of one of the pot's handle and Balthier got the other. They're tugging the pot hard when suddenly it glows brightly.
"What the.." Balthier said as the glow grows bigger and brighter, nearly blinding both of them.
He felt a very intense pain in his head and then suddenly become unconscious.
