Leon was swimming around the shores of Besaid's beach. He had spent a month already at this peaceful island. Leon dreaded the day when whoever was chasing him finds him, yet he knew he just hoped that they never would.

After floating around and practicing a few deep breaths underwater, Leon started to paddle back to shore, that is, until his eye was struck by the glint of something. Leon spotted what appeared to be a shiny stick, and the little boy swam with ferocity to the strange item.

After reaching the object, Leon reached out and gripped the stick, a few tugs were not enough to remove it however, so Leon planted both feet on the ocean floor and pushed with his legs and pulled with his arms. Leon was propelled back as the object became released and Leon saw that it was a beautiful sword!

The stick was the hilt, glistening in the sun as the metal was near a dull shine. The blade it self was a sight alone, the sword was straight as 180 degrees line, the color of red shone on the flat edge of each side, while a strange symbol of a dragon was visible on both sides of the sword. Leon marveled his new find, swimming to shore while examining at his new discovery.

Leon raced back to Besaid to tell Lulu and Wakka about his find, Chappu had left the day earlier to fight the evil monster known as Sin, joining a group known as Crusaders. Just as the sight of town came into view, a dingo popped out of the bushes, ready to attack so his tender flesh could be eaten. Leon showed no fear, ready to use the swordplay Chappu taught him. The little child he remembered the sword he found and readied his battle stance. Leon picked the weapon up and brandished the sword in a threatening way.

The sword, though heavy for a normal boy, was light as a feather for some reason for Leon as he shifted his legs, ready to strike. The dingo, not waiting anymore, charged forward and then leaped. What happened next could be described as inhuman.

Leon, seeing the fiend move in only slow motion, brought the sword up and charged, focusing his energy into the blade, pointed the weapon at the dingo and released the power stored inside. A beam of red light shot out and pierced the dingo straight through the eyes, instantly killing the monster. Leon gasped as he regained control of his surroundings and peered at his hands then at his sword.

He wondered what just happened as he stumbled into Besaid. Unaware, that the attack had zoomed past Besaid, letting all its inhabitants see the single energy beam. Leon continued to walk in a drunken stupor until he heard Wakka call him over. Leon dragged the sword and walked towards Wakka, letting the sun reflect off the polished metal. A wolf whistle was heard from Gatta, one of the Crusaders assigned to guard Besaid, while his superior officer, Luzzu gave a small nod at the beauty of the blade.

'Where did you get that sword from Leon? Luzzu asked, his question sounded more of a demand.

'Well, I was swimming out at sea and then the sun reflected off the hilt, I swam over to it and plucked from the sand.' Leon said as he continued to get a strange feeling arise in his stomach.

'Well, that thing looks brand new, ya, you sure you found it at sea?' Wakka's face contorted into somewhat of a glare.

Leon didn't hear Wakka as the blade seemed to pulsate like his heartbeat. Leon felt somewhat of a connection with the sword and was starting to see something form in his mind. Leon seemed to form a high pitch fever, his mind hazy, and the world spinning. Leon collapsed onto the ground and became unconscious.


'Where…Where am I'

Leon was propelled into a dark pit before a little screen lit up. He became confused until a video started to play. Leon then realized this must be like the video sphere Chappu said he found that showed Wakka's parents. Quickly, Leon stopped fumbling and remained still, the movie captivating his mind as it unfolded.

'Hey there cuz, want some chocolate?' A boy with dark spiked hair and spiral pupils asked.

'Sure Alex… so you moving away to Luca tomorrow right?' Another boy asked. Leon recognized both instantly; the boy that offered chocolate was his cousin Alex!

'This must be my past' Leon muttered, as he could make out traces of his features on the bigger of the two, the one that took chocolate.

'Yeah I am it sure is crazy that I only spent a month here before moving again'

'Well, your parents have always been trying to find a good place to stay.'

'I know, I just wish that they asked me before they always go off and decide to move!'

'Well, I saw how your parents are tight on cash, maybe this is for the better, I mean you want to live safe, have clothes and eat right?'

'Well yeah I do, but I just wish man, I just wish they asked.'

'Let it go my cuz, ain't no use crying over spilled milk.'

'Heh, I guess your right, well I won't see you for awhile so keep this.'

Leon saw John hand him what appeared to be a necklace. He saw his younger self nod as he put the necklace on, and swore never to lose it.

'See ya in a few years cuz.'

'Yeah, see ya.'


Leon woke up with a start. He peered around to find he was in Wakka's bed, with both Lulu and Wakka sleeping against each other in chairs. Leon looked outside to note the sky was black and that the villagers had lit up a little bonfire. The boy reached up to his neck and gasped when his hand brushed against cold metal. Quickly, Leon removed the necklace and peered at the dragon symbol. The child noticed it resembled the symbol on his sword.

Leon shuffled around, looking for his weapon. He saw that Wakka had propped the blade against the wall. Leon ran over to the sword and looked for the dragon symbol. Leon didn't know what drove him to do it, but he pushed the necklace against the sword. At once, the little hut was lit up as the sword seemed to remove part of its blade and start to mold something.

Wakka and Lulu had awaken and stared at awe in the event unfolding before them. Leon backed up a few paces and covered his eyes as the light blasted even brighter. After all the dust settled, before Leon's face was two handguns. They floated into the boy's hands as he gawked at the beauty of the guns. Both shone a brilliant flash or red, coupled with streaks of gray as the handle was made firm and a perfect fit for Leon.

Leon looked back at the sword to find it had also formed a sheath and holsters for the handguns. Leon continued to gawk at his new found treasure until a video sphere molded itself and then started playing.

'Hello Leon............if you are watching this, then you have found the bloodline sword and presented the dragon crest to it, in turn this will make you two weapons known to our families for generations. Be wary of the possession of these items as if you were to lose them, you will destroy the honor of your family. I must tell you now that there are many enchantments to both your weapons, each part will regain your memory that you have probably lost. I am sorry but I can not tell you anymore than this, seek out the remaining parts to your weapons, only then will you regain your full memory. One last thing to tell you, I am your father.

With that, the video sphere stopped. Leon walked over to the stranger's sword…no, his sword and picked up the video sphere. He looked at it intently before placing it in his pack. Leon then equipped the holsters and the sheath. He placed the weapons in their respective holders and turned to faced Lulu and Wakka, both who have seen the video too.

'That's some freaking sphere ya?' Wakka walked over and started to examine the sphere

'Was that man truly your father?' Lulu had risen and now towered over Leon as he remained crouched.

'…I don't know' Leon rolled up into the fetal position, despite the weapons, and then starting wondering who this man was and why did he say those words.

'Well, whatever that was, we better keep it a secret. I don't think those priests at the temple are going to enjoy seeing machina on sacred grounds.'

'What! Those weapons are machina!?!' Wakka started to slowly approach Leon

'These aren't machina; they are my families' bloodline weapons. Leon kept a firm grip on his weapons, regardless of Wakka's glare.

'Very well, you can keep your new things; just don't go into the temple with them.' Lulu had raised her hand to support her head as the situation was starting to become complicated.
