Hime Fantasy

A/N: STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT! I know I have so many fic to tend to, and honestly I've been taking whatevr free time I have to edit some chapters and I am, honestly working on some updates (since they have been so nicely requested) For those who care, Holding Out (NaoNat), Aishiteru (NaruIno), and Samurai Returns (from Musashi) are the fics I'm currently working on. Next chapter for Holding Out, editing Aishiteru then updating, and editing then updating Samurai Returns. I just thought of this idea and I wanted to act upon it. Ehem.

SO, this is basically a crossover of Final Fantasy X and Mai Hime/Otome in the sense that I'm using the concept of FFX, and well, knowing me there probably will be cameos. Memo that I'm using the CONCEPT, so yeah not everything will be the same…

Why Aoi as the main summoner, you ask? And why is Chie the main character? Well I'll be very honest and say that Aoi and Chie do not get enough love! AND I HONESTLY THINK THAT THIS FIC WILL PROVIDE THEM WITH LOVE. Ehem, I'm on summer vacation right now so don't worry. I know it's annoying but it's the only way I work, I MUST multitask. And yeah, I feel so bad about not updating for so long; but I suck like that. BUT I DO KEEP MY WORD ABOUT NOT ABANDONING ANYTHING. I'm mostly just rereading and editing 8D Keep your faith in me and I won't let you down.

If any of you know Final Fantasy as well as I do, you'll know that this will be very long. I predict it will be about 50 chapters long. Oh and it is a crossover of FFX but not so much that you need to play the game in order to understand this fic.

ANYWAY, ON WITH THE SHOW. Oh and this will be Chie's P.O.V.

Prologue: Star Player Chie Hallard

There isn't any other rush like this.

The city lights are beautiful and the screaming fans give me energy. The temperature is the same as always, warm with a light wind to give my hair that dreamy push. Night has finally reached my soul and the one thing on my mind: Blitzball. It's the one thing I'm best at and I exercise this to my best ability, where's the proof? Well here they are.

My adoring fans.

"Chie-sama! Can I have an autograph?"

"Hallard-kun! Break a leg out there!"

"Chie-san! Good luck tonight!"

This was all normal to me. Their shining smiles, the frantically waving arms, and the smell of freshly made popcorn. And, sweat? That's the true smell of the game, the sign that greatness is about to wreck havoc on my beloved city of Zanarkand!

By now the fans were getting slightly annoying. My marker was starting to run out of ink as I signed away, and I was starting to run out of patience before the game began. My nose wrinkled in frustration but I managed to keep my smile as dazzling as always to keep the fans happy. Did these people not understand that I have a game to get to?

In 15 minutes I managed to reach the locker room where my team mates all greet me with a loud holler. In the span of a year I managed to make myself the best of the team, like my father before me. It's actually annoying, how much everyone compares me to that old man but I guess they can't help it. I'll show them I'm way better than he ever was and to stop hiding me in his shadows. It's been a long time since the star player of any Blitzball team was a female, and boy was I glad to have such a title. If my old man was here...

"Chie-san!" my captain cuts off my train of thought, "Remember, tonight isn't that important of a game so don't show off all your moves yet."

I nod at him quickly and give him a thumbs up, to be honest with all of you I was a little nervous. Which is, in actually, very rare when it comes to me but, there's this feeling in the pit of my stomach tonight. Hopefully it doesn't interfere with my play.

The bell rings and I make sure I have my whole uniform on. With a few more stretches I run to our half of the stadium and watch as the whole dome fills with water. Every time I watch this I feel chills run down my spine. Blitzball, the sport that brings all of us together. It was nothing like any other sport, nothing like basketball or soccer; that is, if anyone plays those old games anymore. Blitzball was played everywhere and was the main sport for every city, town and village.

What is Blitzball you ask? Well it's basically soccer and football put together, and it's completely played underwater. It's a very difficult sport to train for, you need to be able to breathe underwater for long periods of time and you need incredible arm strength to throw the ball through water.

Its difficulty is sort of why I take so much pride in being so good at it. That and-

"What the?" the nervous feeling in my stomach spikes up as the dome starts to shake out of balance. Fans are screaming for their lives and I look all around me to find a way out. I get up and run as fast as my feet can take me, but I quickly lose balance and fall and fall and fall.

Am I going to die here?

A hooded boy stands before me, "It begins," he mutters, I wonder how he's floating, "Don't cry."
