RikkuxStarr: Okay, I know this is a really short update, but the next stuff I wrote doesn't have anything to do with the stuff in this chapter. I know, it's been a while. I've been working on the end of the story. . I'm almost done with the last few chapters. Got about…2-3 chapters to end it, then I gotta do at least 4-5 chapters in the middle to lead up to what I have. Got to type all that up. I'm gonna be honest, I had no storyline for Mi'ihen Highroad, that's why I've been avoiding this part. Nothing really big happens here in FFX. I mean, yeah, the Chocobo Eater, but he's no big deal. Well…let's see…I don't think I have anything else left to say. Well…I'll try to get the next update soon. I promise this time! After I get past Mi'iHen and Djose Highroads, everything should go swimmingly. Well, get reading! Please review!
Chapter 20: I Hear a Whistle
"Yes, let's get going," Cloud placed his hand on the door knob.
"I wonder why you're in such of a hurry. Planning on getting that summon and trying to kill me with it!" I screamed. Cloud let his hand drift back down to his side. "Huh! Do ya!" I stepped closer.
"Heh," Cloud was slient for a second. Out of the blue, the tip of Cloud's bulky sword was at my nose. "You better watch your back,"
"Cloud," Kid pushed his sword down to waist level.
"Yes, Kid?"
"Shut up," A scowl was on both of their faces. Cloud turned around and headed out the door. "Ya alright, mate?"
"Just fine,"
I didn't expect Kid to say something like that to Cloud. She's usually nice to him.
"Let's head for Mi'ihen Highroad," Lulu tossed us out onto the Luca streets.
"Where's Mi'ihen Highroad at anyway?" Kid stopped us in front of a large television screen in Luca square.
"Just outside the city," Lulu turned her head to the screen.
"The Maester is traveling through Mi'ihen Highroad as we speak. He is making his way for Guadosalam to take on the responsibility of defeating Lavos," The newscaster on the television's voice boomed.
"Takes a lot offa us," She turned away from the screen. "I neva liked him,"
"Kid, ya don't even know the guy, ya?"
"Oh yeah,"
"If we can hurry, we can see him," Cloud called from the staircase to our right.
"Oh, so ya wanna see the Maester now!"
"Precisely," Cloud led us out of the city, to a path in which leads to the highroad. Kid stopped us at the grand circle. Water was splashing against the rocks of the cliff.
"Hey guys…" Kid's voice trailed off. "Didja hear that?"
"Hear what, Kid?" I asked.
"That," There was an utter silence.
"I don't hear anything,"
"Ya don't?"
"Kid, what does it sound like?" Lulu questioned.
"It sounds…like a whistle,"
"Maybe you're just hearing things," Cloud, Lulu and Wakka walked up to the steps of the highroad.
"Maybe I am…" Kid stared out to sea.
"You know what they say about whistles," I walked next to Kid.
"What's that, mate?"
"They say if you whistle, the person you're trying to reach can hear it,"
"Serge…" Kid stared. "That's a buncha bologna," Kid pulled my arm. "C'mon, I wanna go home,"
I'm going to be honest, I made that up. I wanted to cheer Kid up, just a smidge. The thing is, I think I have heard that somewhere before.
RikkuxStarr: Wisdom6906 and I have a special treat for all you Chrono Cross fans. She and I are writing a CC fic together. Since I'm so nice, I'm going to give you a li'l in sight. Okay, well, it takes place 3 years after the defeat of Lavos. Of course, the main characters are: Serge, Kid, Glenn and Orlha. Glenn and Orlha are engaged and emotions start getting tangled. That's all! Yep! . I'm mean like that. Well, wisdom6906 is going to be uploading this new story, so be sure to watch her. I should be giving her the prelude soon. It'll be uploaded within the next few days.
