Disclaimer: Final Fantasy IX belongs to Squaresoft and there's nothing I can give you if you sue me. *sniff*

(this takes place about 3 years after zidane's adventure)

A boy of about 19 walked through Alexandria as he looked for the castle. His tail carelessly swung around as he looked at his map. "Why didn't I go to school? Why did I have to join Tantalus? I wonder why I wasn't around when the boss gave the lecture about maps," he sighed as some small children passed by him laughing. " Z-Zidane, i-is that you?" he heard as a small shaky voice was heard below him. He looked down and saw the small black mage he used to know so well. "Vivi! What a surprise to see you here! What are you doing here?" "I live here now." "Oh" was the response. "Um… do you know where the castle is?" asked zidane. Vivi chuckled at his stupidity. "you take a right, then left then right, left left, strait, right, left, left,then another left, a straight, then a right." zidane smiled at him sheepishly. "can you take me there?" vivi sighed. "Alright 'cause a have to go there too." They finally got to the castle as Steiner stood outside. Steiner spotted Vivi and said," welcome, Master Vivi!" He spotted Zidane and asked, "Who are you?" Zidane sighed and said, "Don't you remember me Rusty?" Steiner immediatly recognized the nickname and said, "Oh! Zidane! We haven't seen you in ages! If you're looking for the queen, she's inside. "They followed Steiner and saw her on her throne, looking rather depressed. when she saw Zidane, she had an urge to just run up to him and hug him and ask millions of questions that she wanted to ask but just sat there and sighed. Zidane asked Steiner, "What's eating her?" He replied, "There has been a jewel missing for several months and nobody that has found it yet." "Hmmmm..." Thought Zidane "maye we should leave her alone "Let's try to find the jewel!"
