Luca - Destiny Islands (Put it on repeat)
"Whoa ho ho! This place is HUGE! And look at the Blitzball arena! It's giant!" Zeo swirled around, staring at everything around him, "Sweet. Just plain sweet."
Tala sighed and held Kia's hand a little tighter. She was beginning to droop in his hand, "Let's find an inn
first, she won't last much longer."
Kaika nodded, scooping Kia into her arms. Kia's thumb became attached to her mouth and she leaned on Kaika's shoulder, "You're right."
Zeo chuckled, "I am so far ahead of you guys! Look!" He pointed at a large sign, "There's an inn just inside town!"
The inn was large and roomy. Several sphere viewers where placed around so that you could practice fight something before it happened. The attendant spoke only Ancients or Al Bled as it was called here. Kaika giggled and quickly purchased two rooms for the night. Tala and Zeo would crash in a room, Kaika and Kia in the other.
Kia tugged on Kaika's shirt sleeve, "Sleepy?"
Kaika smiled and set the little one down in the small cozy crib. She was out cold within seconds of lying down, so Kaika walked down to the lobby.
"Hey Kaika! OVER HERE!" Zeo and Tala beckoned Kaika to a small table just outside the hotel. Kaika ran over and slid into her seat, "What's up?"
Tala and Kaika looked at Zeo, who began to blush, "Um…. It's nothing really, we're just trying-"
A piercing scream broke out and shattered their conversation, "Ahhh! Help!"
Tala looked at Kaika, who looked at Zeo and they nodded. Kia would be fine, the attendant would look after her.
"Ancients! MOVE OUT!"
Meet the Gullwings? The first fight in Spira – Bustin' up on the beach (REPEAT!)
"What the-?"
"Spinning tops? You must be joking!"
"Oh, I don't wanna hurt them!"
Three girls stood over three spinning beyblades. They seemed to be a team. The leader had hair that was in a style similar to Ray's. Mostly short with a tail swinging down. She wore a pair of shorts with a half-skirt attached to the side. A brown pouch dangled from the belt. She wore a white and pink hoodie with the sleeves and most of the neck part cut off. Two matching armbands finished the look, "I don't understand…."
"That's understandable Yunnie!" A confident blonde leaned over next to Yuna, her wild blonde hair messing with her mecha eyes. She wore a yellow bikini with a pair of low-cut brown shorts. A yellow and red scarf dangled around her neck. Aside from the peasant style sleeve cuts and the untied boots, she looked, well… Odd.
"Yuna, don't listen to Rikku, she's babbling again…"
"AM NOT!"
"Shut up." The final member wore black leather with red charms and outlines. Her hair was much shorter than the others and it was black with white highlights. Her red eyes hated the onslaught of deadly hair, so she kept it spiked up. "Shall I hurt them?"
"Uh…. NO!" Kaika burst onto the dock, followed by Tala and Zeo. All three of them snagged their weapons, "Ancients! FIGHT!"
Tala swung his gun over his head, locking his beyblade into place, "I'm ready!"
Zeo blew the sea-green hair from his face and swung out his dagger, "Kaika?"
Kaika closed her eyes and the Oath of Darkness appeared in her hand, "Sorry, but you don't know what you're dealing with!"
Paine took a step back and crossed her arms, "We'll see…."
Kaika nodded and flashed back, "Okay, OZUMA! Get the heck out here, you big coward!"
Ozuma, cloaked of course, stepped out from the shadows, "I knew I could drag you out! FLASH LEAPORD!"
The red beyblade swerved towards Kaika, almost hitting her. She jumped back, landing on a post. "Trinity formation! 3 2 1!"
"Let it rip!" All three launched at the same time, and immediately, Black Dranzer, Wolfborg and Cerberus swerved around the tired kitty. Wolfborg and Cerberus attacked the sides, while BD stood on the side. Kaika grinned, "Smack 'em hard and fast boys!"
Tala and Zeo circled around Ozuma's beyblade and with one strike, they knock Flash Leopard out of the park. Kaika returned her blade to her hand and as the boys did the same, the other members of the Saint Shields emerged. They each carried a dagger, while Dunga had some knuckle enhancements.
Pocketing their blades, the trio took a step back. Tala sighed, "I knew they'd play dirty…"
Kaika snickered, "And we don't?"
Zeo nodded, "Good point."
Kaika grinned from ear to ear, "Well boys, let's show them why we call ourselves the Ancients!"
Zeo jumped into the air, starting the motto, "We're the Ancients! Why? Because when we're done with you…" He flashed out his dagger and stepped to the left.
Tala jumped up next, drawing his gun, " You'll be nothing more than a piece of the past!" He swished his gun to side and tapped it on his shoulder, standing across from Zeo.
Kaika twirled her staff around and it disappeared. Jumping into the air, she heard a gasp from Yuna, Rikku and Paine. Ignoring it, she transformed via her dress sphere. A black cloud surrounded everything and a small red glyph appeared on the ground. Surrounded by Black Fire, Kaika emerged, her blue hair tied in one ponytail. She wore a black cloak, with the hood dropped back. The deep navy colored skirt had gentle light blue flowers sewn into the seams at the bottom of it. Two slits where cut on each side, making movement easier. A pair of black shorts was sewn a few inches above that. They couldn't really be seen, but they were there. The top had no sleeves. It was black and had the same design embroidered in it as the skirt. A different version of the Oath of Darkness appeared in her hand.
It was a blackish blue color with the gem surrounded by a transparent red color. It shimmered in the sunlight as the black cloud disintegrated. Tipping the wand forward, she fell in-between the two, landing on one knee, "And you see Ozuma, that makes you…"
"Obsolete!" They said together as they broke into a battle formation.
"Is it me, or is it chilly? Let's warm things up! Firagra!" A tornado of fire appeared behind Kaika and rammed into Ozuma's gang at full power.
"Humph. I see no reason to let you live." Tala charged a beam with his gun, "Say goodbye." He fired it at the four, causing an extreme amount of damage.
"Don't forget me!" Zeo chuckled, "I like to destroy, don't you? Impulse!" A purple energy beam filled his sword and when he drove it into the ground, it spread like a wild flame of darkness and burned the Saint Shields into submission.
"Run away!" Ozuma and the others took off into the hills and victory was won.
Kaika sneered, automatically returning to her white tunic with the blue edges. "And that makes it Ancients: 1, Saint Shields: Zip!"
Tala pocketed his gun and shook his head, "That was pathetic…"
"Um…. Guys…. We may have a problem…." Zeo took a step back and hid behind Kaika.
"What's up Z? Oh. Yep. That's a problem." Kaika turned to see that Yuna, Rikku and Paine surrounded them, and they didn't look happy.
RUN AWAY! - Catch me if you can!
"Heh heh heh?" Kaika tried to smile.
Tala sighed and nodded at Zeo. Both of them grabbed one of Kaika's wrists and took off, with Kaika flailing in the air behind them, "RUN!"
"PUT ME DOWN!"
Rikku's eyes looked demonic, "Get 'em!"
Oh, Come and try to catch me
Oh, Catch me if you can!
Oh, Come and try to catch me
Oh, Catch me if you can!
The trio was soon being pursued by six different groups of angry mobs. "Over there!" Zeo pointed suddenly at a tree big enough to hide the three. Sliding behind it, they tried to breathe as their pursuers closed in.
Look out it's time the world is finding for a
New thing, it's time I got a head
Keep thinking nothing is going to stop me
and I won't quit till I'm sitting on the top!
"May I help you?" A voice said, tapping the somewhat dazed Kaika on the shoulder. Kaika smiled and turned around. A youth league official stood behind her, tapping his mallet in his hand. Kaika turned around, a look of annoyed horror plastered on her face, "Split up!"
"Come back here, you little brats!" The three split off, running for a different dock.
Never give up when the going gets rough
I know I'm going to make it through
To just try will never be enough
I'll show you there's nothing that I can't do!
Some newbie New Yevon soldiers were pursing Kaika. They were dressed in white tunics with the armor on their chests and legs. When she was surrounded, she whimpered and jumped up really high, letting the morons below smack into each other.
Oh Come and try to catch me
Oh Catch me if you can!
Oh Come and try to catch me
Oh Catch me if you can!
"Kaika! Over here!"
"Z! T! What the hell is going on?"
"Don't know…"
The three collapsed on the steps in the main hall of the Luca Stadium.
"Traitors!"
"What the?" Kaika exclaimed, blinking in unbelief. Tyson and the Bladebreakers stood a few stairs below them and they didn't look happy.
Come on
Come on
Catch me now!
Catch me Pokemon!
Can you come and catch me can you now?
you can't catch me anyhow!
"Zeo…." Tala and Kaika cracked their knuckles and looked at the very embarrassed Zeo. Kaika hissed at him, "Did you betray us?"
Zeo rubbed the back on his head, "Uh…. Ask my dad?"
"That's it. You're getting a beating so freaking bad, you won't be you…"
Kaika pulled Zeo and Tala apart and looked down at Kai and Rei, "Umm…. Catch me if you can!"
Dragging the boys by the collars, she ran away, now being chased by around sixty people.
Get up let's see what you're made of!
Bring it on, you know I'm not afraid
There's no way that you can slow me down now!
It's time to show you what I'm all about!
They ducked behind some boxes and tried to breathe, but Tyson blew up the boxes. Running to the next dock, they duck behind a crate. Kai blew that one up.
Never give up when the going gets rough
I know I'm going to make it through
To just try will never be enough
I'll show you there's nothing that I can't do!
"RUN!" Kaika screeched, running as fast as her legs would take her.
Oh, Come and try to catch me
Oh, Catch me if you can!
Oh, Come and try to catch me
Oh, Catch me if you can!
Oh, Come and try to catch me
Oh, Catch me if you can!
Oh, Come and try to catch me
Oh, Catch me if you can!
"Need a lift?"
A pink airship that looked like a giant hamster swooped down and flew near Kaika, Tala and Zeo.
"Oh. My. God. It's pink…." Tala's jaw dropped, "It's hideous…"
"A little kitten named Kia told me that you all needed a lift, so Zagart bought an airship!"
"BRYAN!?!?!?" Kaika blinked several times, "Are you flying that thing?"
"The one and only! Hold on! I'll drop a rope!"
"Uh, NO!" Rikku, Paine and Yuna stood between the trio and safety.
It's so close I can almost taste it!
There's no way I'll ever look back!
It's so hard but stopping's not an option
I'm going to keep on, keep on cuz I believe in me!
Kaika laughed aloud. "Attack pattern Bungee!"
Tala and Zeo nodded and put there hands down. Kaika jumped onto the hands and they threw her up into the air. She flipped over the Gullwings and ran to the rope. Tala and Zeo ran for the walls and catapulted for the rope, also making it.
Come on
Come on
Catch me now!
Catch me Pokemon!
Can you come and catch me can you now?
you can't catch me anyhow!
"Those…Little…Brats!" Rikku's hands twitched as the airship started to fly away.
Paine snickered, "That leader, she wasn't as weak as I thought…"
"What were those tops and how do they have dress spheres?" Yuna's hands dropped to her sides. "Not fair."
Come on
Come on
Catch me now!
Catch me Pokemon!
Can you come and catch me can you now?
you can't catch me anyhow!
"Why are we inside a giant cat? And why it this freakin thing almost completely PINK!?!?"
Kia put her hands on her hips and laughed, "Me picked it out! Looks like Skitty!"
"It's hideous!" Tala said, nearly vomiting from the pink.
Kaika bonked him. Hard, "It's awesome!"
Zeo blushed, "I like it…"
Kia smirked, "Yeshums."
Oh, Come and try to catch me
Oh, Catch me if you can!
Oh, Come and try to catch me
Oh, Catch me if you can!
"Uh, Yuna? You want us to pick you up?"
"Yeah Buddy… That would be nice…"
Winds of Besaid - Men who live for Blitzball
"Bryan…. We're in the damn water…"
"Ugh! I'm TRYING! This thing is so pink, it's scary!"
"That's alright Bryan, I'll kick him later… YEOWCH!" A blue and white ball landed on Kaika's head. She picked it up and looked towards the beach.
A guy with spiky orange hair stared at them. His yellow trousers matched the people around him. He wore no shirt. "Yo! Give us back our blitzball, ya?"
"Blitz? Zeo? Tala? Shall we?" Kaika smiled and tossed the ball into the air.
"Three!" Tala bopped it back up into the air with a hard hit from his head.
"Two!" Zeo catapulted himself into the air and smacked it down.
"One!" Kaika bounced it off her forehead to Tala. Tala bonked it over to Zeo and together they shouted, "Let it rip!"
Kaika pushed it into the air and jumped up after it. Spinning horizontally six times, she hit it squarely in the middle, sending it flying with tremendous power. It whacked the orange haired guy straight in the chest… and into the wall.
"Ow, Man dat hurt!" He sat up, groaning from the pain.
"Ooops! Sorry!" Kaika waded through the water as fast as she could and tried to get to the beach.
The guy stood up, rubbing the back of his head. He towered over Kaika. "Wow! You no amateur! Who you play for?"
"Umm…. The Neo-borgs?" Kaika tilted her head to the side, not sure of what to say. Tala drew his hand down his face in disgust, "Pathetic…"
"Hah hah. Very funny. Show us that thing again?" He handed Kaika the ball.
"Well… Zeo? Tala? Shall we?" Kaika tossed the ball into the air.
"I see no harm…. Three!" Tala bopped it into the air with a hard hit from his head.
"I love to play this game! Two!" Zeo catapulted himself into the air and smacked it down.
"But you see, I taught you in the first place! One!" Kaika bounced it off her forehead to Tala. Tala bonked it over to Zeo and together they shouted, "Let it rip!"
Kaika pushed it into the air and jumped up after it. Spinning horizontally six times, she hit it squarely in the middle, sending it flying with tremendous power. This time, it flew into the sunset.
The man stuck his hand out, "I'm Wakka. That's the Besaid Aurouchs. We're a blitz team."
One of the team members laughed, "But you see, Wakka's a daddy, so he's a big meanie!"
"No, the only meanies is people who make fun!" Kia dropped from the sky and landed on Keepa, the goalkeeper. "Hello! I Kia!"
Wakka pried the munchkin off of Keepa's head and hoisted her onto his shoulders. She giggled in delight.
Kaika sighed, "Be good you little twerp…."
Wakka pointed at a village barely seen from the beach, "That's Besaid. My wife, Lu and my kid, Vindina are up there, ya? You can chill up there!"
First Vision – Into GAEA
Kia slowly began to nap as the group reached a cliff overlooking the entire village. A strange statue was placed up there and Kaika's hand slid over her heart momentarily. A strange pain had suddenly come over her body, but she wouldn't admit it. She couldn't.
"This place is nice…" Tala closed his eyes and breathed slowly.
Kaika clasped her hands behind her back and turned to the right a little, "The wind is… Soothing."
"Argh! You guys can't have any fun!" Zeo snickered and grabbed Kaika's wrist, "Let's beat Tala down!"
"Umm… Okay…" Kaika let herself be pulled along, but something kept knawing at her. That statue, what was it?
The chain around her neck began to rumble and it burst into her hand in a mess of purple and black energy. The Oath to Darkness appeared in her hand, "Huh?"
You can't hide from me forever…
I created you, therefore I can find you…
You've tried to resist me, the first to succeed, even for a little while.
But coming to this land, that was a very foolish thing to do.
You see, the overwhelming darkness within your heart pleads.
It longs for your return to the Otherworld
Tiny flaming embers burn in your soul
Stop this nonsense, you foolish captor…Otherwise, you may not survive the ending.
