AN: I'm never sure whether to call it a Preface or a Prologue... So I call it both! So, ha!

Sorry it's so short, but it's the Preface/Prologue; it's supposed to be short! ... Unless you count that one my dad found that lasted ten pages...

By the way, if anyone has any suggestions for a title... -Hint, hint, Wink, wink-

Anyway, I do not own any of these characters, except Senna and Noah (sort of...). The rest are either actual people or they belong to Square-Whatever (Square, Squaresoft, Square Enix...)

Preface/Prologue

/Come./ A deep voice commanded her. It sounded so close, and yet, so far away. It worried her.

"Who are you?" She asked the Voice, her own words echoing in the endless darkness which surrounded her in this dream. And it was a dream, for what else could it be, really?

/Come,/ the disembodied voice repeated. /Find me./

"Why?" She asked for what felt like the millionth time in the last month, for how long she'd been having these dreams. For the first time, the Voice answered her question.

/I require your assistance with something./ The Voice responded calmly, with a tone that said It wouldn't take 'no' for an answer.

The teenager gulped, not liking the way the Voice had said that one, simple statement.

"What could you possibly require my assistance for?" She asked uncertainly, almost nervously. There was a deep, rumbling chuckle in response. The sound only served to make her more uneasy.

/You will see, child. You will see./

With that, the girl awokee in her bed, covered in a cold sweat and gasping for air, seeming almost unable to get enough oxygen in her lungs.

That voice sounded oddly familiar...
