When Fantasies Collide

Prologue

A large red ship with a blue outer ring floated in outerspace. The ship seemed to be searching for something. A man dressed an soldier attire began to address his commanding officer.

"Sir! Everything is set into place, we should hit the worm hole in 38.4 seconds." He said saluting his officer while making sure to stand perfectly still and not move a muscle until told otherwise.

"Must you be so exact General?" A very large broad shouldered man asked. He stared at the soldier looking him over seeing if he would break at any second from being so nervous. "At ease. Today is a special day. The day our empire becomes the largest that time itself has ever known. Mark my words men. We will rule it all!"

A large black man running through a field at full speed with a giant gun arm might seem out of place on an ordinary day.

"What do you mean it's gone? Are you stupid? How can an entire base just disappear dammit!" The man shouted into his cell phone while still running. He had been walking to the Chocobo Ranch so he could check on his prized racing Chocobo.

"I swear! I saw it with my owns eyes Barret! The entire base left the ground and flew off into space." Tifa said back. She had a sense of urgency in her voice that told Barret he'd better run faster.

As Barret reached the top of a hill high enough to see where Tifa was....he saw the giant crader where the sea base once called Junon Harbor had indeed disappeared. Junon was the base for Shinra that had the giant cannon. "What the f-"

"Told you Barret! Call up Cloud and the others right now! We have to find out who is behind all of this as soon as possible!" Tifa screamed into her phone.

"Yeah I gotta bad feeling about all this too....." He said looking up into the sky.

"How else could this be described...well, Zell seemed to have forgotten he had glue on his hands from when he fixed his punching bag for the 3rd time this week. He walked outside to use the hose and of course when some challenged him to a pull up contest he accepted and won with ease." Zell's mom explained inside her smoke filled kitchen where she spends that majority of her life.

"And that's why he's stuck hanging from the light post in the front of town? Gotcha." Irvine said laughing so hard his cowboy hat fell off.

"How's Selphie doing? You two got engaged a few days ago right?"

"Yeah she's doing great. She's teaching over at Trabia garden and really having a good time." He said picking his hat up off the floor.

"HEY!!! SOMEONE BETTER FRIKKIN GET ME DOWN FROM HERE!!!" Zell screamed from outside. You could here a guy like him from miles away.

"Guess I better go help him out." Irvine said as he waved goodbye to Zell's mom and walked outside pulling his rifle out of his coat and shooting the sign four times in the blink of an eye. Zell fell to the ground with the pieces of metal he was hanging on to still stuck to his hands, while the piece Irvine had "cut" him from fell down and hit Zell on the head.

"OWW! Damn you Irvine!" Zell said running after him. Zell had incredible speed so it didn't take long to make it to run all the way down the street to the front of his house.....more like two seconds. Both stopped as Irvine had his Rifle in Zell's mouth while Zell had a sharp piece of metal held against Irvines throat.

"Another draw? This is getting old." Irvine said as they both removed their weapons. Zell walked into his house. He grabbed a knife and cut off the gloves the metal was stuck to.

"Dammit! There goes naother pair of good gloves! If you didn't use a gun I'd kick your ass everytime!" Zell said as he did a standing back flip causing him to kick the ceiling fan.

"Zell! What did I tell you about showing off in the house!"

"Sorry Ma!"

"HAHA! You say that everytime. I'm a gunslinger Zell, it's my way." Irvine said. They both walked outside into the street.

"Yeah Yeah...Hey! I bet you can't hit that bird all the way up there!" Zell said pointing at a small speck in the sky. The speck somehow began to grow in size or rather it was getting closer to them.

"That's not a bird. Looks more like a ship...the Ragnarok!" The Ragnarok slammed into the ground in front of Balamb seconds later. Squall ran out screaming for them to get on the ship now.

"What's up Squall! Haven't seen you in a-" Ward grabbed Zell and tossed him on the ship. "HEY! Big overgrown--"

"Shut Up Zell! We don't have time for any of that now. Something big is going on and we don't have much time." Squall yelled as the ship took off in a flash confusing many of the locals.

Alone forever, that is the way he remains even after all that had happened. Amarant sat in a tree on the edge of the former Mist continent watching over a field full of Chocobo's and monsters. Chocobo's seemed to be good at group assaults as they all kicked and pecked incredibly powerful monsters to death. They were tall and majestic yellow birds ranging from 6-8 feet in height. Don't ever get on a Chocobo's bad side he said to himself.

"Amarant! Get up and get to Lindlum as fast as possible!" Zidane screamed at the top of his lungs not even making Amarant flinch. The guy had been through a lot. It'd take a whole lot to startle him.

"Why?" He said calmly.

"I'll tell you when we get there! Now come on!" Zidane screamed jumping up and down.

"No." He passively waved him.

"Fine, I guess I'll have to make you come!" Zidane said as he grabbed his dagger and sliced through the tree causing Amarant to hop off at the last second before it crashed into the ground. Amarant stared at Zidane very coldly for a moment or two.

"I always did hate you."

"Come on let's go!" Zidane said grabbing Amarants arm with his tail and dragging him to Lindlum.
"Yuna wake up!" Tidus yelled running into the hut she had been sleeping in on Besaid Island.

"What is it?" She said yawning. She had horrid bed head.

"You wont believe me when I tell you this....but Auron's back!" He exclaimed joyfully. Almost too joyfully.

"What?! What kind of joke are you playing on me this time Tidus? This isn't funny!" She said upset at what Tidus had supposedly tried to trick her into believing. "I'm gonna go for a walk now!"

"Wait Yuna!" Tidus said as she reached the entrance to the hut.

"Yuna, it's been awhile..."

Author's Notes: This is a revision of my other prologue in case you were wondering. I was told by many that I didn't use enough detail so I've added on to this prologue.
