Back then people don't know anything about Winhill. Until a young wandering journalist of Timber Eyescoop decide to took pictures of it's wonder and beauty. It was 3 years ago.
Now, everybody think about Winhill for holiday. Relaxing remote village with chocobo farms and refreshing local liquors with beautiful villagers and great singers help the heating brain to cool down. Almost all rich people in the world pay to build holiday home and hotels in Winhill, to enjoy it's fresh air. Most of them build it in the mountain above the village.
It's a school holiday and 16 year old Delphy is in vacation house with friends. No adults.
Well ... that's the plan.
There's this guy, a long black haired guy who is too lazy to shave even once in three days, as he's too lazy to change his clothes and take a bath once a day. Conquers the comfortest sofa in the villa and tv remote too, eating all chips they have, his feet everywhere and always want to know what his little sister up to with her friends.
"I need to go to the village." Delphy fold her arms and give her eldest brother sharp look.
"Where?" This guardian of exit door's name is Luke Lionheart.
"Village. Down the hill. Can't you just read the map?"
"Well, I have to let dad know where you up to. And take you there if it's necessary."
"I only go to the village, I don't need a guardian or a driver. And I'm 16, I'm not a kid anymore. I have my friends with me and we going to take a walk to enjoy this miserable holiday because someone is being daddy's lap dog."
Luke smiled bitterly, "that's harsh."
"I don't care you upset me! Why in front of my friends you treat me as kid?"
Luke trying to be diplomatic to his little sister, "well, there's been rumor about the bad boys of Winhill ..."
"Oh, you think I'm here to see Ryan?"
Luke only can cover his laugh with a smile. "Honestly, I have no idea what his name ... so ..."
Notice her mistake, Delphy walk away quickly into her room, forgot about her idea of visiting the village.
"Hey ... so, his name is Ryan. Okay. Where you guys met? Come on, tell me. We used to be a great team when you were kid."
A door shut tight between the brother and sister. Behind the closed door, Luke can hear his sister scream, "I hate you, Luke! I wish you die in your journalism journey!"
"Geez..." Luke scrach his hair when returning to his boring couch watching football league between Delling United and Timber Owls. "Why so angry?"
In the same room, Luke notice three teenage girls staring at him. It's the fifth day of holiday and they have two more days in Winhill until the next semester begin. Their school in rebuilded Galbadia Garden will not tolerate any indiscipline act from the students. Even if it's a Colonel's granddaughter or the youngest daughter of a leader from another garden. Thanks to this wandering journalist of Timber Eyescoop, they almost doing nothing in this summer.
"Want some chips? Still got lots of them." Luke share them a bowl of potato chips with cheese powder. But the girls just witness their classmate hysterically shout at her eldest brother. They don't feel like chewing something now. So Luke just enjoy all the chips alone.
His phone rings. "Yea? Dad?"
"How's your sister?"
"Angry."
"Why?"
"She wants to meet a Winhill boy named Ryan."
"Who's Ryan?" the voice become fast.
"I don't know."
"Okay. Good work." the talk ends.
Luke understand how funny the situation-at least for himself. He admit that their father is overprotective to his only daughter. When Delphy was a little girl, she was a bouncy ball. Always running around and get excited to her surroundings. Until one day they found her drowned in pool, father almost lost his dearest daughter. And that is the last day Delphy Heartily breath what she call "freedom". There always stalkers following her around.
Two days pass, the girls packing up their baggages ready to return to Galbadia Garden.
"Okay, girls, when you ready I hit the gas to Galbadia Garden." Luke texting his bos at journalism office in Timber, saying he will arrive at Timber in couple days. He is too busy talking with his boss about the new place he will dispatch to. It said that someone report an exotic site about ancient civilization. This is his favorite topic to write, he's not really paying attention for the girls, just count about four people enter their red car. With eyes on the phone cell, Luke sit on the driver seat, checking the mirror and set on his seatbelt.
"Four people in car, let's roll." He hit the gas, car sliding away from the villa. They already outside the Winhill area when he realize that his little sister is not inside. Breaks hit hard and he interogate the girls. "Where's Delphy?"
The girls keep silent.
"Girls, she's an important kid. Grand daughter of president Esthar and Delling, and also the leader of Ballamb Garden's daughter. Someone can make good money by kidnaping her." if he has guts, Luke knows.
"She's in Winhill." the blonde tell him.
Pressing his lips, Luke turn around his car return to Winhill. "Let me guess, Ryan."
"Yea ..." the girls answered.
"Who is he?"
"He's Delphy's internet friend."
Luke laughed sadly. "Internet friend?"
"They promise to see each other in summer holiday." the black girl says.
"What are they? Lovers?"
Nobody answered. Winhill is very beautiful village a few yards away from mountain and beach. When the car rushing back to the village, they face south, and there's the ocean is. Honestly, Luke also feels sorry for the girls to not enjoy a week of holiday completely. All they did was just having fun with computer and console games or watching tv and reading book in village. But his little sister is growing as beautiful teenager. Any guys who will marry her will enter the family who lead the world. Mr Leonheart should be extra carefull with his daughter's socialization.
Just a moment before Luke's car enter Winhill, the ocean breaks.
Luke hit the break and watching the sudden tidal wave split the ocean into two. No matter how you see it, that is one weird tidal wave you ever see. It seems more to something swim from the ocean to the land. Something big. Something large.
First, the wave hit the ground.
Then he see a very large fin.
Finally, a grand creature holding a great sword rise from the salt water.
The girls screams, Luke hit the gas and rush faster than before into the village.
"Brother Luke, what are you doing?"
"Turn around, that thing attacking Winhill!"
"That's why I'm going to Winhill." Luke whispered.
Villagers's car-mostly pickup trucks-drive away from the village upon learning the appearance of 20 feet mysterious monster from the ocean. What breaks Luke's heart is most of the villagers are old women and kids. Most young men in Winhill travels to the big city hoping the can be success there and take their family out from the small peaceful village. What's left are the old men digging on their corn field.
"Wait here." Luke jump down the car and running with his feet to looking for his sister. He can hear the heavy sound when the giant creature approaching the village.
"Delphy!" He shouts worriedly then continue his run to the town square.
As he run against the panic villagers, a car almost hit him if he's not aware. No intention from the driver to step on break even he knew he will hit Luke Leonheart with the green truck.
The creature already reach the village, and it swing his giant sword to split a house in two. Down by the house, Luke can see a familiar face tries to escape.
"Delphy!"
6 barrel revolver slide out from Luke's side belt. Hopelessly shooting at the creature. He try to hit the monster's eye. Because most creature's weakness locate in the eye. One of two bullet hit the target, the monster release a great scream of pain. Luke rushing to his sister and lift out the falling wood so his sister's feet is free.
"Run!" Luke command her as he continue shooting to the monster's eye with his remaining bullet.
Luke catch up with his sister to where the girls waiting. They already scared and ready to leave the siblings if not remember that both of them are the offspring of important figures in the world. But before Luke reach them, the monster rushing on him, wielding grand sword.
"Luke!" Delphy screams.
Luke release a safety button and press something in his revolver. A shape of iron formed a blade in right moment before the monster's grand sword split his head in two like the house before.
"Yeah, this is Revolver 3.9, evolution of gunblade. Cool, eh?" Luke said proudly to the humanoid monster that looks as if it wearing full body armor with blue and black color.
They share swings an blows. Fire release from the monster's breath but unable to hit the target. Luke might be too small for the monster but he can jump high and combine his physical attacks with magic which he learned naturally without GF help.
"Brother!" Delphy still worries her brother, and worry if she late to arrive at Galbadia Garden tonight.
"Delph! Return to your garden now, you'll be late for new semester!" Luke hold the swing from the giant monster.
"What about you?"
"I can handle it. Don't worry!" Luke continues, "just make sure dad know about this. I have no time to report him since this big guy appears so sudden."
"Take care of yourself, brother!" Lyra release the hand brake, and she hit the gas to Galbadia Garden.
Range is the problem for Luke to hurt the monster. This monster is too fast and breath blue fire. And his sword that he carry around is too big. Luke only jumping away as far as he can while releasing some tiny weak magic. While running away, he reload his revolver and shoot when he got the chance.
"Shit. It's been too long since the last time I'm doing this. I should've train my cardio more." Luke almost out of breath escaping the monster's strike. Finally he got tripped when the monster release a big blue fire breath. Luke's body hit a burning house and because of the collision, the burning straw roof collapse burry the gunblade specialist.
to be continued ...
