Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
Authors Note: Finally, chapter six. I changed the final phantom confrontation to be a little shorter.
Disclaimer: Still don't own anything FF: TSW even though I consider Neil to be god.
Where Hearts Can See
Jane's shoulder gently brushed Neil's as the quarto descended slowly into the crater that had been formed by the Leonid meteor. The two were crammed in with Ryan, Grey, Aki, and tons of Aki's spirit tracking equipment. It amazed Jane that the small ATV was able to hold all of them. Suddenly, Dr. Sid's voice came over the comms. "We have incoming!" He barely finished the last word when an explosion rocked the quarto. Jane fell back into Neil as the ship swung around crazily. When Grey finally got it stabilized Jane, blushing furiously, pushed away from Neil, muttering an apology almost beneath her breath. A hurt expression flashed across his face. "Doc, what the hell was that?!" Dr. Sid came back on, but this time the message was full of static. "It's the Zeus Cannon! They're firing!" Grey seemed ready to say something, but Aki jumped in. "What about the spirit?" "I can't find it on the scanner." There was a long silence before Dr. Sid screamed into the comm. "They're firing
again!" Everyone crouched low to the floor. An explosion shook the ship, then they began to fall. Everyone braced themselves for impact. The finally hit the ground, hard.
Aki watched the monitor intently, looking for some sign of the eighth spirit. Then, there it was. Her face lit up. "I found it." The others gathered around her. "Okay," Grey took control. "Ryan, Jane, Aki, let's go get that spirit. Neil, see if you can repair the damage." Everyone nodded and silently set about their appointed tasks.
