Ermm. This is the re-write version. I read the original story, and suddenly realised how stupid it was. Maybe this isn't so good either, but at least I hink it's a little bit better than before. After all, English is not my first language. There's a little bit of changes in this re-write version, but it won't make much difference. Please review after you finish. Well. Enjoy!!

Oh no! Earth is in trouble! Prologue

Kuja slowly sat up and looked around the gloomy interior of Iifa Tree. "Urgh." he groaned at his bruised back, which was the result of a hundred feet fall. In addition of that, his clear and smooth face was wounded and scratched all over! What if. it'd leave scars? His face would be ruined! It was all that monkey-tail's fault and his heroic companions. Kuja clenched his knuckles till they gone white.

Then, his eyes fell onto the spot where Zidane had just sat. Actually, he was quite shocked to see that blondie came for him. For a moment, he was quite touched, and thought of giving up his new plan. Luckily, he didn't. He had to pretend losing to that blondie, and that was the worst thing he had ever done in his entire life. If that's not enough, he also had to listen to Zidane's words that almost turned him into a good-guy. Luckily not many people saw it. If not, his reputation would definitely go down and if he really changed hs mind, all his efforts would be a waste.

For no apparent reason, Kuja suddenly laughed. There's only one word to explain his new plan; perfect, or you could also say flawless, and even extraordinary, or grandiose or brilliant. or wuteva that sounds good. He had just discovered a new world - thanks to his unlimited talents and abilities, not to mention intelligence. It was called Earth. In order to accomplish his plan, he had gottten himself a new acquitance, whose identity would remain secret for the sake of surprise.

"Behold!" Kuja said grandly to no one in particular. "Thus begin my domination on Earth." Then, he laughed and rose to his feet.

BUMP!

"Damn!" His head had just bumped onto the vines - or roots, whatever - of Iifa Tree, which for no apparent reason had lunged towards him and Zidane. That blondie had left and saved himself upon thinking that Kuja was dead, leaving him all alone. Such a good lil' brother he is. But of course, it was all a part of the brilliant plan.

Then, he burst out laughing and teleported himself to Invincible for his next step.

Zidane sneezed for the fith times. He was sure someone had been talking about him. But who? He sure hoped it was her beloved Dagger talking about his bravery and unlimited strength to her female friends. It'd surely boost up his reputation among girls.

He was walking slowly along a ravine that led away from Iifa Tree. His body was scratched all over and his clothes were torn. This was one condition he never wanted any girl see him. He was tired, thirsty and hungry. His belly groaned for he didn't know how many times, and finally gave up walking. With an exasperated sigh, he sat heavily on the ground. Another groan from his stomach made him sigh even more.

"Damn," he muttered. When he left his friends to look for Kuja, he didn't exactly think that they would really go and left him, especially Dagger. When the Red Rose departed, he was looking hopefully at her, wishing that she would suddenly jumped off the ship and said how much she loved him and went with him to find Kuja. VERY unfortunately, she didn't. Perhaps it was the best for her. She's a princess after all. And he's just a thief, though of a high-class one. The thought brought him even more despair. With a groan, he lied on the rocky ground.

"Giving up at last?" It was Mikoto, his supposed-to-be little sister. She was grinning at him. He couldn't understand how she didn't get tired and hungry. Maybe it was one of her special abilities - to bear hunger so that she could stand not eating for days and keep her figure slim and firm, or maybe to bear tire so that she could pick on the weaker people anytime, anyplace. "What happened to your boost up strength? Where's that over- spirited man who could walk across the Mist Continent within one day without rest? Could he possibly be lying exhausted on the gound after walking for a couple of miles?"

Zidane looked up with tired eyes at the girl. She can't believe that once quiet and shy girl could become *this * bad. "You're soo cruel," he accused.

The girl laughed. He groaned and looked away, and his eyes fell onto a blue moving object at the sky. He looked closely at it as it came closer. It was the Invincible.

He almost choked with joy. His friends had finally come for him. "Heyyy!!" he shouted at the top of his lungs. "I'm here!" He stood up and waved his hands wildly in the air. "I knew they would come for me," he said, smiling winsomly at Mikoto.

The girl smiled back. "Oh yeah?" She pointed one finger upwards and Zidane saw the airship flew over, and past them until it faded from his sight. "It seems that the Invincible is invisible."

"Noooooooooooo.." Zidane cried in despair. "Come back!"

Mikoto laughed.

Zidane sighed and sat heavily on the ground. He looked first at his sister and then at the spot where he had seen Invincible. "What had I done? Why do I have to be punished this cruelly? Whyyy???"

Kuja froze. For a moment, he thouhgt he had just heard Zidane's voice. He shrugged it off quickly and told himself that he was hearing things. He had far more important thing to think about. Then, he suddenly felt like laughing, and laughed his usual bad-guy's laugh. Even as he laughed, the Invincible sped of towards its destination - Shimmering Island, or what was left of it.
