Snow clenched his fists as he banged them on the cold floor. He had been trying to free Serah for days. However, all of his actions were useless as the ice just seemed to keep hold of Serah's crystallized form.

'I'm sorry Serah... I'm sorry that I can't help you...This proves just how weak I am!"

Snow felt tears spilling down his blue eyes as he kept on banging the frozen floor. Tears fell down as some of them dropped on his hand where they hit his L'Cie mark. While Snow was continuing with his actions, he never once noticed that his L'Cie mark was glowing. As if the mark was angry to see that Snow had not noticed its a actions, it glowed even brighter causing Snow to finally realized that his mark was glowing. He got up from his position as he clenched his glowing arm. Then, the glowing disappeared completely.

Snow was so immersed with his arm, wondering why the glow had stopped, that he did not see the two figures behind him. Suddenly, an object that seemed to be a tyre suddenly came flying in front of Snow, making him react immediately by punching the tyre, only to find that it flew somewhere else. That somewhere else was his back. He turned around and saw something that shocked him. There, in front of him were what seemed to be two women with blue skin, standing on front of him.

One of them had a darker shade of skin and had a patch around her right eyes while the other had a lighter tone of skin and a patch around her left eye. Without warning, the woman with the lighter shade of skin suddenly attacked him with the tyre again, causing Snow to defend himself.

"So that's how you want to play huh?" Snow shouted as he got ready to battle the two women in front of him.

If there was one thing the three had not noticed, it was the presence of a few people, watching them fight from high above a cliff...

Agana slashed her weapon again and again as she killed all of the monsters surrounding her. The battle took some time, but she was still able to defeat them all. In the end, all that was remaining was the broken and cut off bodies of her enemies. Agana sighed. So far, she was not able to fight a decent opponent at all.

Agana broke off into another sprint. She continued sprinting until she saw something that made her stop her tracks. There in a far distance, was Sazh and Vanille, both obviously having a short break. Deciding that she had nothing to do, Agana jumped into the air and did a couple of back flips before she landed right in front of them, shocking them out of their wits. Vanille was faster to recover from her shocked state as she waved her hand excitedly.

"Hi Agana! It's been quite some time hasn't it?" Vanille said perkily. Sazh woke up from his shocked state as he whipped out his guns, ready to fire a shot towards the killer if she made any kind of unnecessary move.

Agana saw this action as an invitation for a battle and instantly got out her double blade. She place it in front of her, ready to use her weapon to deflect the bullets. Vanille did not like this as she got in between the both of them, with a frown on her face.

"You must not fight! This is not how it's supposed to be!" Vanille said, looking at the both of them with a disapproving glance. Slowly, Sazh lowered his weapon as Agana did the same. Once they put back their weapons, Vanille's frowning face was immediately replaced with a smiling face.

"Now that we're together, we might as well travel together!" Vanille said as she started walking ahead of them, unaware the glaring competition that Agana and Sazh were having...

"This isn't working..." Lightning said as she stared at Hope, who had fallen due to exhaustion. Hope quickly glanced up at Lightning with a desperate look on his crestfallen face.

"You're a liability." Lightning said coldly before she turned again, continuing on her journey.

"You'll just slow me down."

Hope gave a short gasp.

"W...What?" Hope stuttered, trying to process all of the sudden actions.

"I'm sorry, but I can't protect you with- Ughh!" Lightning gasped as she placed her hand onto her glowing chest.

"You can't leave me here! You have to take me with you!" Hope said, not aware of Lightning's sudden pain.

"Enough!" Lightning hissed before she fell on her knees in pain.

"The whole world is against us. I can barely help myself...Let alone a helpless kid!" Lightning said before she gasped again. The pain in her chest...It just seemed to get much more painful with every passing second.

"I have no time to baby you! You want to get tough? Do it on your own!" Lightning exclaimed before the ground below her suddenly began to glow as a big pink circle started to form with patterns and unknown writings on it. Connected to the circle were what seemed to be a design of flower petals, all glowing extending themselves towards an even bigger ring where there were even more petal like design. All in all, it looked like a rose. Lightning scanned her pink surroundings as she quickly jumped towards Hope.

As soon as she jumped out of the way, a creature appeared. Hope, who was covering his eyes, let his hands go down before he gasped at what he saw. In front of him was what seemd to be a creature that looked like a knight with a shield and a double bladed weapon.

"This cannot be happening!" said Lightning who had recovered from her state as she stood up.

Suddenly, the monster was in front of Hope, its blade poised in an attacking position. Hope staggered before he fell on the ground and closed his eyes, ready for the incoming slash.

"Hope! Look out!" Lightning said as she rushed towards Hope, her gunblade ready.

Hope widened his eyes as Lightning was able to stop the creature from killing him. Howeverr, it seemed as though the creature possessed tremendous strength as it was able to push Lightning away effortlessly. Lightning staggered for a while before she stood in a battle stance.

"Get ready Hope..." Lightning muttered.

Hope nodded as he unfolded his boomerang.

He had to help Lightning...
