In another part of the stadium, two shadowed figured knocked out a guard. One, a young, asian woman with long black hair, dressed in black leather pants and a black halter, her hair up in a high ponytail, ran down the hallway, stopping at a doorway to give a quick wave to the second figure before she ran out.

The guard's body was dragged into the deepest shadows as the second figure stepped out. This one was a young man with curly black hair and deep chocolate brown eyes with a tanned complexion. He was wearing lose, yellow pants and a yellow muscle shirt as he raised one of his gloved hands to his mouth.

"T...D...C...In position." he whispered as he grinned. "It's show time."

I had been watching as Tori took a step forward with her microphone. In two years, she had only grown more beautiful, her face a bit more defined and power practically radiating from her eyes.

As she began to sing, I felt my heart beat painfully as I realized...this was the first time I'd seen her since we were separated two years ago.

What can I do for you?

The backup music started and she raised her mic to her mouth, but didn't sing as she danced around.

What can I do for you?

I can hear you.

What can I do for you?

She looked out into the crowd as she raised the mic and sang out in an angelic voice, like I'd never heard before. I felt my jaw drop as I listened.

Far beyond the hazy borders of my heart.

I can see a place, that's something like this.

Every now and then I don't know what to do.

But still I know that I can never go back.

I wondered, if maybe, she was talking about the day we were forced apart.

Suddenly, I head something from up above me, and turned, finding another all too familiar face, doing something...unexpected.

But the things I've seen in those hazy dreams,

Can't compare to what I'm seeing now.

Everything's so different,

That it brings me to my knees

Dustin was standing at the upper railing, watching Tori's concert through binoculars. It made me raise an eyebrow, wondering why her own cousin would need binoculars.

Then, a guard came up from behind him and tapped him on the shoulder, making him turn around. Dustin gave him a shy smile before lashing out and punching the guard, and kicking him in the stomach, knocking him out.

And though, I know, the world of real emotion has surrounded me

I won't give into it

Now, I know, that forward is the only way my heart can go.

I hear your voice calling out to me.

You'll never be alone.

As soon as the guard fell, he turned back to watch the show, but paused a moment when his eyes locked on mine. I noticed his eyes widen and offered him a raised eyebrow as I waved. It looked like he was going to say something, but before he could, the sound of fighting caught my attention from a little ways up from me.

What can I do for you?

Tori seemed oblivious to all this as she kept singing and dancing, two backup dancers behind her that I hadn't noticed earlier.

What can I do for you?

I can hear you.

And if I find the world of real emotion has surrounded me

And I can't go on

You are there the moment that I close my eyes to comfort me

We are connected for all of time

I'll never be...

Turning to look up the isle, I noticed a guard grab a young asian woman in black leather, but with a quick move, she jumped into a spin kick, kicking his baton out of his hand and then kicking him twice in the head, sending him flying as she landed in a crouch and glared at his unconscious body.

Getting up, she got a cool look in her eyes as she slid down the railing to land beside me and glared at me.

I just raised my hands, when I heard an engine near us and turned to find Dustin standing on one of the floating boards that had been used for the guitarists, and another one trailing behind him, empty.

"Blake!" he cried happily. He noticed the guard was knocked out and he grinned at the asian girl. "Yeah!" he cried as she got up on the empty board.

And though I know, the world of real emotion has surrounded me

I won't give in to it

Now, I know, that forward is the only way my heart can go

I hear your voice calling out to me

"You'll never be alone."

"Blake, come on!"

Turning my attention to Dustin, he offered me a hand which I took, and pulled me up on the board with him. He looked at me a moment, seeming to realize I was weaponless, and handed me a weird sphere. He pressed the small button on the top once it was in my hands, and the next thing I know, I'm wearing black leather pants with a navy blue, skin tight t-shirt and holding a sword with a bright blue blade, made out of the same material, as the thunder blade that was bought for me on my last trip to Spira.

What can I do for you?

I can hear you.

"Right!" Dustin cried as he flew the hover board, or whatever, over to the stage, where we all jumped off and stood in front of Tori.

What can I do for you?

I can hear you

As soon as the music died down, Tori sneered and looked at us with eyes that looked cold.

Dustin took a step forward and grabbed his twin daggers from his sides as he glared at her, and I felt myself frown. "Hey! Give it back already!" he called angrily.

I wondered what the hell was going on. One minute I'm seeing the woman I love, who I haven't seen for two years, singing and dancing, and the next, I'm with Dustin and some leather clad chick, about to attack her?

"What the hell, Dustin?!" I cried.

He turned to me and shook his head. "Just trust me on this." he whispered. "That's not Tor."

I raised an eyebrow and looked back at the blonde who was swaying to faint music in front of us, a smirk on her face as she called the two back up dancers that turned into men wearing green spandex and holding short swords. "Looks like her to me...though, maybe a little more evil." I muttered quietly, taking Dustin's word for it.

"Boys!" she called, and I felt my eyes widen.

That was so not Tori's voice!

"Want in on this number? Then show me your moves!" she yelled as she held the microphone in one hand, swaying to the music still.

The asian girl smirked and held her long black blade as she carefully watched the henchmen on either side of Tori's impersonator. "Think you can keep up?" she asked in a cold, confident voice.

"Awww, man. This is way narly." I muttered to myself as I grabbed my blade.

Dustin went straight for the woman, as I decided to call her, since it was way too easy to imagine this being Tor, and sliced her with his daggers, as the unnamed asian girl attacked one of the henchmen. With a shrug, I turned to the other henchman and attacked him, hitting him hard with my gleaming blue blade.

I think I was a little disappointed when they collapsed right away, leaving Tori alone. I could only stand by and watch as Dustin and his new friend went after her. She might not have been my Tori, but it was way too disconcerting to attack her myself.

After a few hits, the woman collapsed and groaned, before staggering to her feet and wincing as she glared at us.

"I could've danced all night." the asian woman said with a smirk.

The Tori impersonator sneered at us again and raised her hand in front of her. "Sorry!" she called out, speaking to the people in the stadium. "No time for an encore!" Tossing down a smoke bomb, she fled, leaving us coughing in her wake.

I felt someone grab my arm and pull me with them, and went willingly as I blinked and tried to clear the tears out of my eyes. Sheathing the blade, I followed them out of the stadium and towards the docks, noticing it was Dustin and the asian woman I was being dragged after.

As we made it to the first dock, Dustin stopped and groaned. Turning to me, he offered a quick smile and looked at the woman. "Cassie, this is Blake. Blake, Cassie." he said quickly before turning around and running back down the docks. "Get back here!" he called after the retreating form.

Cassie looked at me a moment before sighing and running after Dustin, and with another shrug, I decided to follow them. We had to battle more of those weird guys in tights, and some women in really tight pink tights that casted magic at us. They didn't last long though.

As we made it to the number 3 dock, Dustin veered off course and ran over to a shaking, huddling person in a weird, though in a strange way, kind of cute, costume of a white thing that looked a little like a stuffed bear, except for the pompom on the top of it's head. It looked up at Dustin and immediately raised its hand and we all felt better, restored.

Running back down the docks, we finally made it to the number 4 dock where Dustin ran a little farther ahead and let out a loud groan as he looked around. "Hey, you run too fast!" he shouted into the empty air as Cassie and I bent over to catch out breath.

"You're too slow, little boy." said a voice from behind us.

Turning back the way we'd come, I noticed a skinny man with a spiked collar come walking up, holding two guns. He was dressed in blue robes and sneered at us as he approached.

"Not them again." Cassie muttered with a roll of her eyes.

Dustin spun around and his green eyes widened. "Yeowch!" he groaned as he raced forward to pull me down the dock. "That's Skull. Wherever he is, you'll find Bulk not too far behind." he whispered as we turned around.

A bulky man came from the other direction and walked up to Skull. He sneered as well as they came in closer. He was also dressed like his counterpart. "Show's over!" he yelled before he began to laugh.

With a raised eyebrow, I figured this must've been Bulk and that his name really seemed to suit him.

All of a sudden, the sound of gunshots was heard and the men jumped around as bullets riddled the ground at their feet. When they stopped, they spun around...

...To see Tori!

I felt my eyes widen and blinked in shock as I took in the Tori I was looking at. Gone were the conservative Summoner's robes she used to wear, and in their place was a sleeveless shirt that was open in the front, the sides held together by an intricate T, showing off way more cleavage than I'd ever seen and just covering the essentials, and it came to just above her belly button. It also had a pink hood on the back, and she wore yellow arm bands and black leather bracers on her wrists. Under that, she wore a really short pair of almost black jean shorts with a light blue, ruffled half skirt over them, and a yellow belt with a pouch on it, and lastly, a pair of knee high black boots finished off the package.

Other than that, she looked identical to the Tori we'd been chasing.

I was a little torn between drooling or throwing her over my shoulder and running off, yelling at her about the choice of clothing.

I blinked again as I noticed she hadn't seemed to have seen me. Glaring at the men, she raced forward, twin pistols in her hands, and jumped up, jumping on Bulk's head and flying up in the air, to flip around and begin firing on them as she fell.

Flipping twice, she landed and held he guns out in front of her with her wrists crossed, the guns held butt to butt as she kneeled on one knee.

Dustin seemed to take the hint and spun his daggers in his hand as he walked over, standing behind the kneeling Tori, and crossing his arms with his daggers pointing out.

Cassie walked over and brought her sword up in an arc as she held it over her head, glaring at the men as she stood back to back with Dustin, behind Tori.

For a quick moment, I got a weird flash of Charlie's Angels, with the way they were dressed and posing, except one was a guy.

I shrugged and stayed in place behind them. The men ran forward and I watched as they fought them, only running in to block a blow from behind Tori. She spun around to see what happened and her eyes widened and her jaw dropped as she looked at me.

"Hey, Tor." I said quietly, offering her a small smile.

She gasped a bit, and I had to quickly pull her aside as Bulk threw a large round shield at us, only to have it boomerang around and hit him in the head.

I laughed as I grabbed my sword and took a step back. "It's good to see you too Tor, but think we can save it till we're safe?"

She seemed to understand what I was saying and blushed as she turned around. She grabbed her guns and seemed to glow for a moment before she unleashed a volley of shots that I couldn't keep up with.

Shaking my head, I turned and sliced at Bulk along with Cassie who gave me a mild glare. When I backed up, she shook her head, and I turned to Skull, deciding to let psycho witch go after him all alone while I helped the others.

Soon enough, they fell to their knees whining about their loss, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's quite enough sniveling, boys!" came that annoying voice from the concert.

We all turned to see the Tori impersonator come waltzing out, sneering at our Tori as she put a hand on her hip and stood between the fallen men. "Persistent, aren't you?" she asked with a shake of her head.

Tori growled and stepped in front of all of us. "My Grid!" she called as he held out her hand.

Dustin nodded and stood beside Tori. "You give us back Tori's Garment Grid, right now!" he shouted.

"Didn't you ever learn to share?" the fake Tori said haughtily.

My Tor glared angrily at her and took a menacing step forward. "Give. It. Back!" she said through clenched teeth.

With a shrug, the fake Tori sighed. "Very well, it's yours." she said as she tossed the weird bracelet-like thing.

Luckily Tori was able to catch it, and Dustin sighed in relief as Tori cradled it to her chest.

The fake Tori brought out a fan from behind her and swept it up in front of her face as she disappeared in a violet mist, coming back as a woman with long blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing an all too revealing pink dress and a giant pink heart tattooed on her chest.

I almost wanted to laugh at her when I saw the outfit, but managed to keep it under control. She looked like a wacked out barbie doll brought to life! I think, I was almost waiting for her to start calling for her 'Ken'.

Sweeping the fan from her face, the woman glared. "But it won't be yours for long, loves!" she called.

Tori growled and hit a button on the bracelet, causing it to glow. A moment later, and she was covered in a pale violet light as she spun slowly on the spot. The outfit she wore, was slowly replaced by the same blue dress the fake Tori had been wearing on stage, and with a jump, she caught the microphone that fell out of mid air.

"Hey! Eyes on me!" she called as she began to dance.

I heard the blonde woman make a noise of protest before walking around blindly, and Dustin hit her with his daggers. When he jumped back, she swung blindly for him, but missed by a mile.

I was beginning to get a familiar feeling that I didn't really care for, and shook my head sadly. It seemed, a lot had changed on Spira since I was last here, and I once again felt totally lost. I didn't understand why Tori was dancing, who Cassie was, how they changed outfits so quickly in battle, who these new people were, nothing.

I stood back and watched as Dustin and Cassie took care of the blonde, and Tori danced away.

As the woman collapsed, Tori let out a sigh and stopped moving, panting a little as we all stared at the three people across from us.

Walking up beside Tori, I leaned over and whispered in her ear as I raised an eyebrow at the weird blonde. "Who's the weirdo?"

Looking at me and blinking with wide eyes, a huge smile split Tori's face. "Cassidy and her goons Bulk and Skull." she answered quietly.

Cassidy stumbled to her feet and grimaced as she backed away, her lackeys by her side. "Uhh. Uhhh... I don't let you off so easily next time!" she called shakily as they ran away.

I turned to Tori, smiling. She looked back and began to laugh, jumping a bit.

"Get back here!"

Turning my head, I noticed Dustin at the other end of the dock, shouting after Cassidy.

Cassie turned back to Tori and me and raised an eyebrow, turning her head a bit to catch Dustin's attention. "Dustin." she called quietly as a smirk crossed her face.

Blinking a bit in confusion, I turned back around, and grinned, seeing Tori dancing around. She was jumping and spinning, but my smile frioze when I noticed the confused expression on her face. "Uhh...Tor?" She looked at me and blinked for a moment before she began to giggle a bit, though I could tell she was a little concerned.

I just shook my head with a smile. It had been so long, but besides her appearance, Tori hadn't seemed to have changed at all.

My body just started dancing by itself. I didn't know what was going on. I was...frightened. Then, strangely, I began to feel like someone else was there, inside me. I couldn't explain it.

Whelp, there's chapter 2. I hope you like this so far. For those of you who read my other fic and are wondering where Hunter and Shane are, they will be introduced soon enough, though they won't be much a part of this fic. They are minor characters this time. Cam won't be introduced at all, but for the earth Cam, seeing as how the Spiran Cam is resting on the Farplane.

Also, there will be many mentions of characters from my previous fic, as well as new characters that arise in this one.

Well, I hope you like it so far. :)

R+R please.

Thank you.
