Authors Note: In the last chapter, you may have noticed that I tried to bring out a darker side. Don't worry. It will be here
off and on. So, I just introduced you. Let us continue the fic.\

Judgement of Darkness
If fate had you in its hand,
forcing you to run from where you stand
Could you escape from the grief and hate.
This question still haunts you to date.
Ramza Beoulve thrust and slashed with his Chaos Blade, strongest blade of all. He ducked, dodged and weaved with great skill.
The 23 year old had seen many battles in his life. He parryed another blow and thrust.
"You can do better than this!"
Thunder God Cidolfas Orlandu was his opponent. Orlandu came for a short visit and brought good tidings of everyone. Orlandu
was the best swordsman in Ilvalice. He was only matched by Zalbag and Balbanes Beoulve, Ramzas' Brother and Father. His father
was murdered by his other Brother Dycedarg and he had to kill Zalbag with his own hands when Lucavi took control of his body.
"Come on!" Orlandu shouted again as he took the heavenly Excalibur and charged. He shoulder tackled Ramza and sent him flying.
Ramza did a backflip and then he was stabbed in the chest with Orlandus blade. Ramza fell on his back and sprang to his feet
imediatly. Orlandu sighed and sheathed his blade.
"Nice try." He smirked. He knew Ramza would lose. He wasn't Thunder God for nothing.
"Yeah," Ramza said, with a smirk, "But you didn't notice Worker 8 behind you. Sneak attack!"
Worker 8 flew out and readied his cannon. Orlandu drew his blade, ready to dodge the robots insanely powerful attacks. Worker
8 reared up and fired...
"Ribbons and Flowers?" Cid grinned as he saw them fly out of the robot.
"Welcome back!" Ramza said, "You can stop firing now."
"Yes master." Worker 8 said. He ceased firing.
"Glad to be here. Glad I found you actually." Orlandu said. His face turned rather solmenm then. But he hid it and laughed, "Lets
go see Alma, shall we?"
"Yes, lets!" Ramza yelled.
After the defeat of Altima, the Bloody Angel, Ramza, Agrias, Mustadio, Orlandu, Rafa, Malak, Meliadoul, Beowulf, Reis, Cloud and Worker
8 had split up. It was far to dangerous for them to stay together, being branded as herectics and evil to the church. They
split up across Ilvalice.
Ramza, his sister Alma and Worker 8 have been living in a cottage near Riovanes. They must disguise themselves so they aren't
arrested.
Rafa and Malak have wandered to Barruis Valley where they live off the land.
Cloud Strife, the mysterious man from another world has wandered around looking for a way home.
Beowulf, Reis and Agrias live in a small village by Limberry castle. Beowulf and Reis are now married and have a baby girl named
Calia. Suprisingly, she takes after Agrias for some reason. Agrias says it is obvious reasons.
Meliadoul has been living in a village to the east by Warjilis trade city. She likes to look at the water.
Mustadio and his Father live in Goland Coal city where Mustadio continues his inventions.
And Orlandu has been wandering, a tie between everyone.
"Orlandu! Ramza!" Alma yelled as she rushed out to meet them. Orlandu spread his arms wide and hugged her. Worker 8 left for the trees.
"We have another visitor that showed up!" She said excitedly. She hurried inside. They heard a familiar grumbling and Meliadoul Tingel
came out of the house.
"Meliadoul!" Ramza shouted. She grinned. Ramza and Orlandu ran towards her. They reached her and Ramza and Orlandu gave her a hug.
"Glad to see you." She said, "It has been so long. At least a year. Why, It must have been on the 23rd of May.
Orlandu growled. He drew Excalibur and took up a fighting stance.
"Who are you!" He thundered, rearing to his full height. He took a swing at her Midsection. She leaped back and drew her sword.
"Orlandu, stop!" Alma yelled. She through herself infront of the 2. Orlandu shoved her aside.
"Ramza, draw your blade!" Orlandu yelled. He swung at Meliadoul and she ducked. Orlandu swung down low and Meliadoul did a backflip
over it. Orlandu stabbed her chest. Meliadoul put her sword infront and Excalibur hit it. Meliadouls' sword was broken and
she flew back. Suddenly, Ramza drew his blade and charged. The Chaos blade glinted and a black energy ripped through it as it
slashed open Meliadoul. Ramza leaped back and held the blade at her throat.
"Who are you!" Ramza raged.
Meliadoul began to laugh. The laughter was not Meliadouls laugh. It was an evil bloodthirsty laugh. Meliadoul faded away,
leaving a black aura behind. Black thunder shot out and it vanished.
"How did Meliadoul..." Alma began.
"It was not her. 1 thing got me going. The last time Meliadoul visited was far after that. Only 6 months ago I belive. Ramza
knew when the "Save the Queen" broke with such a feeble blow. It should have lasted longer, even from Excalibur."
Ramza merely nodded.
"Why would somebody do this. Who could get the power to become a doppleganger?" Alma puzzled.
"I do not know. But I fear that we are in great danger. Look out!" Orlandu yelled. He leaped infront of Alma and deflected an
arrow. All of a sudden, 2 samurais and a ninja dropped out of the trees. Then 2 archers came from some brush. Then the Ninja spoke.
"Come with us. King Delita wishes to see you," the ninja motioned for everyone to put up their arms, "Or we'll force you there!"
The trio stood as still as stone. Suddenly, Ramza pushed Alma into the cottage. Arrows started firing.
"Worker 8!" Ramza yelled. Worker 8 came hurtling out of the trees. It saw his master in danger and shifted to battle mode.
"Worker 8 Genocide mode!" Worker 8 glowed and began spouting electricity.
"Lightning Stab!" Thunder God Cid cried. The 2 archers were blown away by an electrcal blade. They flew 10 feet into the air.
"Worker 8, throw me in the air!" Ramza yelled. Worker 8 dashed over and threw him in the air. Ramza got 50 feet into the air
and began to glow. A strong energy rippled through his palm.
"ULTIMA!" Ramza roared. He fired a massive blast of blue energy. It slowed his descent and it obliterated the one archer that
remained. The samurai and the ninja flung themselves at Orlandu. Orlandu fended them off. Worker 8 grabbed the Ninja and threw
him against a tree. The ninja flipped and rebounded off the tree. Worker 8 lunged and the ninja leaped over him. The ninja kicked
him and then threw a ball at him. Worker 8 wheeled around and grabbed the ninjas sword and destroyed it. Then he grabbed the ninja
and threw him into the air.
"Dispose." Worker 8 bleeped. 3 massive guns came out of his chest and fired missles at lightning speed. The ninja was hit and
turned into a bloody wreck. He still had fight though. The ninja came down with a flying kick. Worker 8 came up with a drill hand.
The ninja was ripped apart and landed in a bloody heap.
Ramza landed and a samurai went after him. Ramza had to block the massive katana and he ducked and dodged. Ramza took the chaos
blade and cleaved the katana in half. The samurai tossed it aside and began fighting hand to hand. He punched and kicked. Ramza couldn't
land a blow. The samurai was very fast. Ramza finally got smashed in the gut. Then he was shoulder tackled into the ground. Ramza
had the wind knocked out of him. The samurai was a bout to smash his face when Ramza threw dirt in his eye. The samurai looked aside
and Ramza threw him off. Then Ramza rushed at the samurai. A black aura covered the Chaos Blade. It lanced through the samurai and
cleaved him in 2.
Orlandu had his hands full with the other samurai. Orlandu had the speed advantage, but just barely. The samurai leaped over and ducked
under every swing with Excalibur. Finally, Orlandu got fed up.
"Heavans wish to destroy all minds! Holy Explosion!" A mystic energy exploded the samurai from within.
"Orlandu, Alma, Worker 8, are you all alright?" Ramza grumbled.
Alma came out of the house, a big gash in her side. She collapsed.
"Alma!" Ramza yelled. He rushed towards her.
"Ramza!" Orlandu yelled. He rushed over and Ramza gave a sigh of relief. Alma was only hurt. She would survive. Ramza picked
her up and walked towards the house. Orlandu followed.
"Ramza," Orlandu began, "I am afraid I must go. I must warn the others of this threat. In 2 weeks time, August 12, meet me and
the others at the Inn in Warjilis trade city. I take my leave of you. Thank you for the hospitality."
"Goodbye Orlandu. I may be late though, Alma must rest, But I will try." Ramza said smiling.
ALMA AND RAMZA BARELY MADE IT OUT WITH THERE LIVES. ORLANDU SEEMS TO BE RIGHT ABOUT SOME EVIL. SOON THEY WILL KNOW JUST HOW DEEP THE
TRAIL GOES INTO THE FOREST.
