Chapter 2: Early years Valhalla

I was falling…I was sure I was going to die. Here and now I was just going to die in the same situation as Cocoon. The only sad part of this was that I was so high up it would feel that it would be hours before I fell right into Pulse. My only thoughts were "this was actually happening." "What turned out as a good day was now my last."

I could see Pulse now, covered by snow. To what seemed as if it were snow except it was only in this one giant area. The floor was getting closer now, the time has finally come. I spared Cocoon one final glance to only see that a weird like structure formed on the flooring of Pulse and liquid surrounding Cocoon. Glowing orange due to the heat being excreted from the fall and the lava spewing inside the crystalline shell I manage to make out the formation, it reminded me of my necklace.

Well now this was it…

The end was brought up…

Goodbye Cocoon…

My chest constricted on this feeling of soon going to die, I wanted to close my eyes but I couldn't when I was staring death right in the face or even if it was just a floor.

I remember though what my sister said "Close your eyes, it'll be over soon." Those were the words she always said to me whenever I had a nightmare or when something was always bothering me and I would soon breakdown.

…I must be dead, all I could see was nothing but pure white, I was engulfed in it. I opened my eyes to see green–like arches, more of like a giant clock tower. Falling back slowly I reassured myself I was looking at a giant castle, surrounded by an enormous city which was engulfed by a tranquil sea of black.

I could see something flying in the air towards me, it was none other than the Eidolons from the stories, and it was Bahamut. The dragon was fierce and ready to attack any target, it was coming for me. "Not without a fight I said to myself." I threw my necklace as it transformed into a silver, shining, metal katana.

I lunged for my katana managing to spin around within the air and connect a strike through the Bahamut. The Eidolon was supremely strong as my katana connection just made a simple scar through its left wing. It managed to gain turbulence despite the torn wing and was charging for a final impact towards me. If this Eidolon was going to charge for me then all I had to do was be evasive and manage to get to the floor using it as a landing pad.

Full blasted at me I used my katana as a platform and stuck it knee-deep into the back of the Bahamut. Bracing myself for the crash, we landed pretty hard and I was thrown off it, crashed into the waters of this place. I got up and not even a scar, I ripped my sword out of the Bahamut and stared at this divine place. "Where exactly was I?".
