Don't own anything, sorry for the wait, if anyone still cares. And now I'm skipping to the interesting part, the first time the gang gets together.
Snow watched from the rafters as Norah wept at her son's crystallized form. Lightning was sympathetic, but still determined to find him. Sazh was remembering Dajh, and the two pulsian women where trying to figure out what it all meant. Snow sighed, got up from his position and jumped down. "Well, damn, I hoped this wouldn't have happened."
Everyone looked to him "Snow!" the girls called, shocked. Sazh had no idea who he was but considering this Snow guy just went down from a fist from Lightning he figured they where safe enough. "I've been looking everywhere for you, where the hell have you been you stupid, arrogant, jackass. Running headlong into a Pulse Falcie, now that's just dumb, even for you."
"Light, I was just trying to get the kid and get out, I didn't mean for this to happen when I learned this was coming. But it did, and we have one last thing to do." Snow stalked off towards the next door.
"What do you mean when you learned this was coming?" Lighting grabbed his arm.
Snow sighed, "I've known this was coming since Dajh Katzroy, his son," he pointed at a stunned Sazh, "was made a cocoon l'cie. This place would be Bartandalus' first target. The Bodhum Pulse Falcie. I don't have time to explain everything, but I can tell you this, we have to kill Anima, and fast, or we all become l'cie." Snow passed by them all and knelt down by a sobbing Norah. "We have to go now, and we have to kill the thing that did this to him, ok?" She nodded, "Ok, Vanille, look after her please, everyone else, come on, he's just ahead." The station shook and they all quickly decided to follow Snow.
They came upon a chamber where there was Anima was sealed when Snow saw Lucifer. He smiled and asked "You ready?" and Snow nodded. Lucifer snapped his fingers and Anima came out as the others caught up with Snow.
Snow barked orders to Fang and Vanille "Watch out for Norah, we'll handle this." He smiled at them and charged an arm. Lightning and Sazh joined in,Sazh focusing on Anima's crystalline body while Snow and Lightning took out the mechanical arms. Finally, the Vestige began falling as the PSICOM forces ripped it apart. As they fell through they saw the true form of Anima as it began branding them, except for Snow. As the tendril of magic began to wrap around his arm, a pentagram symbol burned on his arm, causing him to cry out in agony. The tendril of magic began to burn as well, and it burned all the way to Anima. Snow heard Lucifer laughing as he saw true form of Anima burn and cry out in agony as fire seemed to drag him down.
Snow was up first, and he looked around as the others got up. The others groaned and looked around, seeing the crystallized form of Lake Bresha. "Well," Snow said as everyone calmed down, "that was fun." which immediately pissed off everyone except Vanille and Fang. Which means it pissed off Lightning, so Snow Villiers is down for the count shortly after saying that.
"Well," a new voice spoke up, "that is still funny."
The group of confused, angry, and terrified l'cie looked to the man who appeared behind them. "Please allow me to introduce myself," he said with a smile an a dramatic bow, "I'm Lucifer, me and Snow have been working together for a while, I'm on your side. Fang, Snow, and I have to leave you at this juncture, and don't worry Norah, we'll retrieve your son and I personally assure you that he will wake up from his stasis."
"Wait, he's going to wake up?" Norah asked, hope shining in her eyes.
"Yup." And before the Devil could continue, Snow pushed Lightning out of the way when a cie'th was about to hit her. He grabbed its arm with on hand and froze the creature solid before shattering it completely. The blast stunned the other cie'th and Snow proceeded to crash a massive amount of fire onto them. "And all of you are now l'cie, and your mission is to let loose Ragnarok. Except for Snow, his job is to circumvent the parameters of your Focus and still see you succeed. I need to borrow him for a while. And Norah, you will come across your son's crystalized form, but do not worry. Snow, Fang, and myself will get him to a safe location."
While Lucifer was talking to Norah, Lightning pulled Snow to the side and glared at him to give her answer. "OK, I know you don't exactly understand what's going on, but I'll try to explain everything. All I can tell you how is to do what you do best, survive. Now listen, most of the guardian corps is working for the rebellion, however not all of it is. I love you, Lightning, more than I've ever loved anyone or anything, but right now we need to play our parts. Just be yourself, that's all you have to do."
"Hey Snow," Lucifer called, "I'm done with Norah, the three of us need to leave for now."
"Hey, hey, hey," Sazh speaks up, "Why should we do what you two want, I mean, you're the guy who talked us into fighting that Fal'cie, and you seem to be calling the shots."
Snow looks him dead in the eye. "Sazh, I promise you this, if you trust me, and stick with Vanille, you will see your son free of his curse."
Sazh backed down in surprise. A transport does above the group, with the Bodhum Security Regiment icon on it to Lightnings surprise. Two cords dropped and Snow and Fang grabbed each. The group of l'cie looked at each other and then began their journey through Lake Bresha.
