Hi how is everyone? Ready for the next chapter? Good cause here I go. Oh the Amber in my story is an OC, not the fall maiden.

Earlier.
"So tell me Amber, what's you semblance?" The man in red asked.
"What's yours?" She asked back.
"I don't know amnesia, remember."
"Pftt whatever. I can control and creat electricity, mostly in the form of lightning, it's what powers my suit."
"So I'm guessing you have a fairly large energy pool."
"Oh yes, off the charts."
"Interesting, what else?"
"I can charge my special equipment with my semblance."
"Excuse me sir," asked one of the airmen who where on the ship "would you like a drink?"
"Why thank you" Red said taking a glass filled with what looked like wine.
"Some for you Ma'ma?
"No thanks, I don't drink."
"Oh, it's not an alcoholic beverage."
"It's ok, I'll pass."
"Are you sure it's very good."
Amber narrowed her eyes, something was off. Pushing a button on her gauntlet a small eyepiece popped up and scanned the drink in front of her. Small alarms went off as the scanner identified a heavy sleeping drug in the drink.
"What is the meaning of this?" She asked standing knocking the drink out of Reds hand.
The airman looked up in slight fear. Red knew that the girl was already above average height wise but in her armor she towered over most every one.
"Damn, sir plan A failed!" Called the man up to the front.
Suddenly the airship was full of action as all the passengers started to try to subdue Amber and Red, however Amber was not going to let them have their way. Firing up all her suits systems and putting on he helmet she slammed the first attacker in the chest breaking his armor, his chest, and denting the door of the ship. She felt the Other warm in joy over her aggression but she pushed It down, She couldn't go berserk, Red was within range, she knew her symptoms where going to be present but she didn't care. She heard a gunshot and felt it hit her armor, however she had pulled up her over shield when the fight started so the dust round simply deflected off. Looking over at Red she saw him brake an attackers arm, slam him to the deck and use him as a shield against another attackers blade. There where more gunshots and Red drew his sword and deflected all the shots, however he forgot about the confined space they where in and had compromised the integrity of the airship.
"Red!" Amber called out in annoyance.
"Oops." Was his response before the ship started into a nose dive.
"Die elitist dogs!" Called the pilot before he jumped out of the cockpit.
"Red hold on!" Amber called grabbing the man. Activating her equipment she deployed a bubble shield ripping apart the airship.
"Hold on!" She called out locking her armor up.
As they hit the ground the shield took the brunt of the impact. Amber stood up and shook off the numbness from the hit.
"Red you ok?"
...
"Red?"
Amber was starting to get worried, looking around the crater she saw a red glove hanging over the edge. Climbing out she saw the man, he was bleeding and had several broken bones.
"Hold on I can fix this!" She said, even though she knew it would take a miracle to save him, being as cautious as possible Amber set all of the bones into place as best she could.
"Ok here we go." She said to herself activating her healing pod.
"Wait." He mumbled weakly.
"Don't speak!" Amber practically cried "I won't lose another friend, I won't! I swore to myself I wouldn't and you will not make me break that promise!" She felt tears welling up inside her helmet and was glad she was wearing it.
"Inside my jacket," he wheezed, "is a pouch with orbs in it pull out the green one and put it in my hand."
"Ok, why?"
"Like you said I can fix this."
Pulling out the orb he specified, she placed it It in his hand.
"Now what?" She asked.
"Watch the magic work." He muttered as the orb glowed.
Amber nearly fainted when she saw his bones return to the proper place and fuse together seamlessly, and his wounds close leaving no scar tissue.
"See told...you." He sighed as he passed out.
Amber picked up the man and headed to an outcropping that could provide them shelter, placing land mines out in front and settled in holding an assault rifle at the ready.
Inside the red mans mind he was looking at a stream of memories. All of which where his. He saw his friends and rivals, his adoring fans, and his terrible actions.
"Why am I alive?" He asked only for a memory to come to the forefront, it was Angeal and Zack.
"Alright Genesis," started Zack. "Are you ready for your second chance?"
With a flash the memories all faded from view and Genesis woke with a start.
"Red you scared me!" Amber said.
"No, not Red."
"What?"
"I remember, Genesis, that is my name." He said before he passed out again.
"Hmm, Genesis interesting name." Amber. Used out loud before she heard the click of one of her mines.
Amber heard a young woman's voice. "Umm- Gajeel?"
"Don't move!" Said a mans voice.
"Both of you, Freeze!" Amber said dropping her barrier and lifting her gun, Amber looked at the two and saw a scared young woman with red hair standing next to a young man with long unkept black hair.
"Hold on don't shoot! My friend here stepped on a land mine." Gajeel called to the armor. "I'm going to try to diffuse it."
"You can't." The armor said. "It's linked to a system of mines you set one off, they all go off. You diffuse one, the rest go off. If you move one-"
But Gajeel wasn't listening in stead he had backed up and started charging at Pyrrha. Upon reaching her he grabbed her as tight as he could and emitted as much power as he could to lessen the explosion, he also used his scales to protect himself. He heard the one in armor call him something unsavory but he didn't care, as long as Pyrrha survived he would be ok, he had no question about him surviving, he had suffered worse.
Amber cursed at the man who had charged the girl standing on the mine. If he had given her two more seconds she would have had it on standby. But no he had to act and now she was covered in dirt and rocks. ("Well that's not very accurate, the rocks and such are covering my shield.") as she thought a bout a way to get out she heard a strange noise.
"What?" She said with a start when suddenly sun light shown through and she saw the man digging her out.
"Hey are you alright?" Gajeel asked the armor.
"YOU DUMB...AGH HOW ARE YOU SO STUPID?!" The armor screamed at him lifting him up off his feet.
Looking at the armor Gajeel noticed just how tall it was, he also noticed two other things, the armor narrowed at the waist and the voice coming from within was feminine.
"IF YOU HAD WAITED JUST A FEW MORE SECONDS I COULD HAVE PREVENTED THE MINE FROM GOING OFF!" She screamed at him.
"Would you mind not screaming at me?" Gajeel asked, his ears ringing, especially his new second set. "You are killing my ears."
"YOU!...ehem, you are an absolute-"
"Idiot? I know." Gajeel interrupted as he was placed back on the ground. "Now are you two the passengers of the crashed airship we where heading to?"
"What?" Armor girl asked.
"Ok simpler question. What's your name?"
"Umm, Amber."
"Ok Amber, were are you from?"
"Atlas."
"Ok, why are you crashed in the woods?"
"Are transported ship was hijacked and they tried to kill me and my friend."
"Ok, what happened to the hijackers?"
The girl looked down at her hand and Gajeel followed her gaze and saw her glove was a different shade of black.
"Oh no!" The girl gasped. "I did it again."
"Did what?"
"I killed someone." She stated, falling to her knees starting to hyperventilate.
Pyrrha gasped, but Gajeel kept an impassive face.
"Was it in self defense?" He asked.
"What?"
"Was it in self defense or was it for a thrill?"
"It...it...was...both."
"What?" Gajeel asked, still not showing any emotion.
Reaching up the girl removed her helmet, Gajeel looked at her in the eyes and noticed something was off.
"Your not alone on their are you?" He asked tapping the girl on the forehead.
"You know the symptoms?" She asked.
"Yep, I've seen it before, I've actually fought someone with the same problem, just a little more dangerous." He said, thinking about his fight with Rouge.
"Why are you smiling?" She asked
"Just remembered something."
"Ok."
Suddenly the man in red sat up
"Amber!" He called out, drawing a sword but stumbling when he stood up.
"Easy there." Pyrrha said reaching out and catching the man.
"Red..er Genesis!" Amber called, rushing over to the man.
"I fells like shi..crap." He slurred.
Gajeels ear twitched. "We need to move, now."
Suddenly a giant bear burst out of the trees followed by two more medium sized bears and at least ten small bears.
"Ursa!" Cried Pyrrha, drawing her weapons.
"Every hit the deck!"
Gajeel ducked, closely followed by Amber, Pyrrha, and Genesis.
A massive blast came flying over head, incinerating all of the Grimm. Amber glanced up and saw a man walking over holding a giant weapon, his hair reaching below his shoulders whom Amber did not recognize,and a blonde woman with a riders crop. Amber recognized her as Glynda Goodwhich, a teacher from Beacon.
"It's about time" yelled Gajeel standing up and helping Pyrrha to her feet.
"Sorry" Cid called back. "I couldn't get the lock to disengage."
"Whatever, we got an unconscious guy here. Go get the ship there, are no more attackers."
"Ok, I'll be back soon."
Gajeel looked over at Pyrrha who was looking at Cids receding form.
"Hey! Pyrrha never seen a guy with expertly done hair?" He asked.
"What? No. I just felt like I've seen that weapon before."
"Right..."

Alright, how you all like it. No attempt at a cliff hanger today. Any way I'm working on another story. It will have one of my favorite final fantasy characters going to one of my favorite manga worlds. Go ahead and try guessing, if anyone gets it right, um I'll name some character after them or some type of attack named after their suggestions. But I'm going to wait on releasing it until I have at least 30 followers, so spread the word and share with your friends. So how did you guys like the meeting of the two characters? Hmm any good? Also Genesis will get back on his feet so no hate mail for making him temporarily weak. Also any guesses as to what is afflicting Amber? It's not quite the same as Rough from ft but same basic principle. Anywho have a great day leave a comment/review. Bye.
