(Now, before those who are following me, this story also takes place after my interactive adventure "A Mobian's Tale" on my DeviantART account. You can search it on Google to find it yourself on move on from there (I'm not really one to do this, but for the sake of the story and of FanFiction's rules to sharing stories, it's the best I can do . I hope you enjoy the part of the "Prolouge" before the main story happens so it can clear things up for later chapters. This is a crossover between Final Fantasy XIII and my own character. There will be spoilers for the game. If you're one to not care for things as such, then you're fine. Enjoy the story.)

Station Square - Church - Time: 3:06 PM

"...Are you taking off now?" A Brown male hedgehog with a Grey arrow-like marking on his top quill and Dark Blue eyes, along with glasses, wore a Brown and Grey shirt, also having a Black one armed backpack with it being held together by sports tape, along with his left arm and leg, also having Black pants with his Grey arrow symbol on it along with chains, Black and Grey shoes, a ring through his ear, and had White gloves with the palms being Black; Ken the Hedgehog himself, asked while a mobian with little to know origins begun to walk away.

"Yeah... I should probably return back to what I do, go on my own way." He/she said, in which Ken nodded.

"Alright, I understand. But remember what I'm about to tell you." Ken said as he smiled and crossed his arms. "You're our friend and a member of our group. If you need any help with anything, you know on who to call. When you do, we'll come running." The Mobian looked back at Ken and the others, which contained Stone, a Light Grey Furred hedgehog with the same colored eyes wearing a tanktop, Black jeans, gauntlets on his arms, and boots, Edge, a small Red cat with Black and Grey clothing, Yune, a Grey furred hedgehog with Green eyes and wore a white shirt with a blue vest, jeans, and black boots, and finally Gemstone, a Emerald Green hedgehog with the same colored eyes and wore an adventurist outfit.

"I will." He/she said before continuing to walk, going its own way before Ken smirked and stretched.

"Aw man, talk about an adventure that will really wear you out!" He said before finishing and quickly turning to them along with doing a clap. "How about he we head to somewhere where we can relax or something, grabe a bite to eat or something. Who's with me?!" They all quickly cheered happily in celebration, finally being able to stop Mephilies, except for Stone and, for some reason in which caught his attention, Gemstone.

"I'm afraid that I must not." Stone said while shaking his hand and head a bit. "I must find and return the Master Emerald back to where it rightfully belongs so I may protect it for any reasons possibly."

"Alright Stone, I udnerstand." Ken said with a nod while they looked at each other, then offered him his hand. "Thanks for help and looking after that Mobian. We wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you."

"It not a problem. I am glad to have assisted." Stone said as he too then walked off, returning back to Angel Island while Ken looked at everyone to see Gemstone looking down in thought still, making him worried a bit but then looked at everyone else.

"So guys, what do you say? How about we eat at a good place and have a good time?!" He asked happily, making Edge jump up happily.

"Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! I'd love some food!" He said with a smile while he kept jumping.

"Yeah, let's do it!" Yune said while smiling, in which Ken nodded before stretching his neck and arms.

"Alrighty! Let's do it then!" He said as he then walked with everyone else through the town, while also keeping an eye on Gemstone. "What's up with her? I wonder if there's something bothering her..."

Station Square - Restaurant - Time: 6:34 PM

"...So then here's what we did." Ken said while taking a drink of soda and sitting with everyone else at a table while also eating burgers. "We sealed him back up to where he once was, and he won't be getting out of it for a LONG time. We got out of it out of pure luck, but we did it."

"It must have been intense for the both of you to deal with him after the world fell apart." Yune said before taking a sip, with him nodding.

"It was. But we did it. It took a heck ton of effort to do it, but it was all worth it in the end." He said just before Gemstone got up to refill her drink, which caught his attention. "Hey, I'll be right back." He got up slowly begun to follow her to the soda dispenser, then got near her. "Hey, is something wrong?" Hearing this surprised her because she wasn't paying attention, then slowly look at him with a half-nod.

"Y-Yeah...I am..." She lied, but he noticed it easily and he crossed his arms, which made her sigh. "No...It's just that I've...I've been thinking, about us."

"About us?" Ken asked, which took him by surprise, but he began to listen. "Alright, so what about us?" Gemstone looked at everyone, took a deep breath, and looked at him.

"Can we...Can we talk outside?" She asked, with him nodding as the two went outside while both Yune and Edge watched them, and finally made their way outside.

"Alright, so what is it?" He asked, with her then looking down sadly, making him sad a bit. "You can tell me if something's wrong..." He then sighed a bit. "...It's bad, isn't it?"

"It's...It's about what happened a bit ago. With Mephiles destroying the universe and all..." Gemstone suddenly said as she looked at him in the eyes. "...I died because of it. I...I can't imagine the amount of pain it must have put onto you..."

"Hey, it's fine. Don't worry about it." Ken said as he put his hand on her shoulders, with her reacting by stepping back to get them off.

"No, it's not. My death hurt you so much...And making you feel like that...It's my fault...It's my fault you felt that multiple times..." Gemstone said, which surprised Ken.

"Multiple times?" He asked. "What do you mean by that?" She then sighs.

"When...When I betrayed you with Xiran, getting Comet killed, making you go through the entire fight of who will stay at Station Square or Soleanna because of me being selfish, and having you go through my death like that...I can't imagine the amount of pain I made you go through..." She said while pinching her forehead and Ken listening to her. "...And it's all because of me...Me falling for you, and our relationship...It's just caused you to get nothing but hit and hit over and over again. Each and everyone of them getting stronger and stronger as they just keep...Keep coming!" She finally had tears coming out of her eyes.

"Gemmy-" He tried to say.

"Don't call me that anymore...I don't deserve you..." She said, which took him by surprise. "I all I ever did was cause you pain...I...I never should have formed these feelings for you...Because all it did was get you hurt..."

"So...What are you saying? Are you saying we should..." He said in devastation by what she's saying, with her slowly nodding. "I mean, come on! You can't be serious! This is-"

"I...I don't want to see you..." She said, which put him in more devastation. "Our romance only hurt you more than made you happy...And...I don't deserve anyone to be with..."

"Gem, this-this is crazy! All just..." He said as he fought back a few tears, making Gemstone cry now, with him sighing sadly. "O-Ok...I'll be the one to break it off. So you don't have to..." She then looked at him. "If you want to think that...Then let me be the one to do it..." She started to cry more and more, leaving him heartbroken. "Then...I guess...I'm breaking up with you..." He looked down to not look at her crying, which made him feel bad enough. "Is...Is that what you wanted then?"

"Y-Y-Yes...Thank you..." She said before walking away, but stopped. "Can you...Can you tell them I'm not coming back inside?"

"...Yeah...I will..." He said as Gemstone then walked away, leaving him to just stand there and slowly walk back inside, while a shadowy humanoid figure watched them.

"Aw...Poor little thing..." It said, revealing to be female, and walked away afterwards.

In Fabula Nova Chrystallis

284 AF
Gran Pulse - Archlyte Steppe - Time: 18:46

"Cocoon's Pillar about to collapse!" A young and small boy said as he ran through the Green grasslands of a large area of plains and small occupied towns from within. "It's about to collapse hurt everyone!" Most of those in the town looked at the small boy in shock.

"I-Is it really true?!" One man asked.

"Oh my goodness..." One female said as she then prayed.

"Someone get the military on this or something!" Another male said as the nearby male nodded and quickly ran to a communicator on one of the walls and begun to make a call.

"Hello?" A female voice asked through it.

"Get the military on Cocoon's crystal pillars! Something's about to make it fall!" He said quickly and in fear.

Cocoon - Sunleath Waterscape

Inside an area that looked very Autumn-like, which was once a nature filled area, held giant Flans, which were giant Red Ooze that looked like a tomato but with goopy arms and mouths, slowly moved over to an area filled with crystal while being led by a larger one with multiple faces on them known as the 'Royal Ripeness'. It lead multiple Flans to the crystal pillar in which held Cocoon, making it somewhat melt and crack slightly, weakening it more and more until there were bullets being shot at them, making them scream as soldiers from a military of some sort came in from a aircraft and landed in.

"Team Blaster, fight them off and keep them occupied long enough!" The leader from within yelled loudly while looking at the area. "Team Defender: Get Oerba Dia Vanille and Oerba Yun Fang out of there. It's about time we owe those two after all they did. Move!" Another team came out of the aircraft, with drills in hand, and begun to drill a hole through the crystal while he pressed a button on his ear piece. "Team Enhancer, make sure all of those airships keep Cocoon afloat for as long as you can! Multiple people and soldiers are here! That's an order!"

"Afrimative sir. Cocoon ain't going ANYWHERE." One soldier said, while on the outside, multiple airships from the military kept the large planet afloat as best as they could.

"Good. Now stay there while others get those supporter beams from Gran Pulse up running!" The leader said as multiple of the soldiers in the Sunleath kept shooting at the Flans and Royal Ripeness as best as possible and at one point resulted in shooting them with rocket launchers.

"Nothing's working on them sir! They're too strong!" Another soldier yelled outloud in fear until he was hit by a fireball from a Flan, killing him.

"Just keep hitting them as best and strong as you can boys! Cocoon and the people of Gran Pulse's lives depend on it! Don't let all of those who live there down!" The leader said while those in Team Defender kept drilling through the crystal as fast as they possibly could, making it crack more and more as it begun to fall apart.

"Come on! Just hang in there a little longer!" The main driller, which was a female, said until she finally hit something from within. "I found a weakpoint! Help me dig through it!" Some of them then helped her drill through it as much as they possibly could until they reached the core, seeing two people, one young that was nineteen and one that was twenty one, from the inside that was in a crystal stasis and in a pose of which they were a foetus sleeping position and holding hands. "I found Vanille and Fang!"

"Good! Now drag them out!" The leader said while more and more of the soldiers fighting were killed by either being smashed or killed by their Fire spells, and those in Defender begun to drag the two of them out of the crystallized area. He begun to sweat a bit but then decided to take a part in the battle, in which he took out a large shotgun from his back, and begun to shoot at the Flans as much as possible.

"Sir! The support beams are ready! Just give the word!" One soldier said from a different area.

"Very good soldier! On my go!" The leader said until the ones in Defender finally got the two out.

"Sir! We've got them out! Sending them your way!" The main driller said.

"Good job soldier! Return to base!" The leader said until he put up the shot gun. "Men, return to the aircraft quickly, double time!" At that very moment, those who survived in Team Blaster quickly ran to the aircraft while shooting at the flans, and in Team Defender put the crystallized Vanille and Fang inside along with the others. Once they entered, the aircraft then started another set of rockets and begun to set off, leaving the Flans and Royal Ripness to continue and destroy the last remains of the Crystal Pillar. "Ready the support beams on my go!" They kept flying away as the leader kept watching until the inevitable finally happened; The crystal pillar then broke as the rest of it then shattered, making Cocoon begin to fall. "NOW!"

"Got it sir!" A man said as he was inside the falling of the crystal pillar, and pressed a button on a machine that was now attached to the ground, shooting out a large amount of wires from the inside which later formed multiple beams of metal and turned into a large one, then hitting where the crystal pillar was once in, making the large planet slow down until it made a complete halt, stopping it from falling. "It's stopped sir!"

"Well done soldier. That was terrific bravery you had there." The leader said as the aircraft kept flying away to a new location while those in the Archlyte Steppe witnessed what happened and begun to cheer, along with a small Orange mist coming out of the ground with nobody noticing it, observing what happened but then slowly seeped back inside its spot.
