"Metabee! Wake up! Why won't you listen to me?!"

Ikki dropped to his knees in the sidelines. It was useless, no matter how much he shouted, Metabee stayed still. The same thing was happening to Warbandit.

Dr. Metaevil laughed, "It is useless! All the medabots are in a state of dream. They won't be waking up!"

Ikki got up. He slowly made his way to Metabee and punched him, "WAKE UP! YOU STUPID PIECE OF JUNK!" Metabee didn't move.

Metabee opened his eyes, "Where am I?" He looked around. Brass, Neutranurse, Sumilidon and Warbandit were also there, knocked out. He looked up. The sky was blue. It was a beautiful day. He tried to remember how he got here. His memory was blurry. He couldn't remember anything.

"Metabee...?"

Metabee turned at the sound of his name. It was Brass. She had woken up and the others were also coming to. She looked around, "Where are we? What happened? I don't remember anything..." Metabee shrugged, "I don't know." Sumilidon got up and pointed a dark dot on the horizon, "Look, I can see something over there. Maybe we'll find some answers there." Metabee nodded, "Alright. Let's go. Move out troops!" Little did the group now that they were heading towards the city of Bevelle.

The ongoing war between Zanarkand and Bevelle was taking its toll on the people of both cities. However, Zanarkand seemed to have the advantage with its many summoners and magic users. The High priests of Bevelle were in a council meeting. The oldest priest, Asaar, spoke first, "I'm afraid, my friends, that we shall have to forfeit this war. It would be unwise to continue." There was a few shouts of anger and disagreements. He waited for them to calm down before continuing, "It has been brought to my attention that our people is suffering and that we will lose the war anyway if we should decide to continue it."

Zark rose angrily from his seat. He was known for being a hot head and having a huge ego. One might wonder how he had even become a priest. He spoke with confidence, and every one of the High priests in the room could hear the anger in his voice, "Why must we surrender? We can win this war! You are simply not making the right desicions. We can win this war if we used more money in creating machina! Right now, you are using all of the citizen's tax money on soldiers! I say, let us use that money for better purposes! Who agrees with me?" Most of the other High priests were young, the older ones having been the first target of the Zanarkand. Thus, they were still inexperienced and Zark's view of things were much more appealing than surrendering and losing. When Asaar saw this, he bowed his head, his eyes were flaming, not with anger, but a calm aura of power and wisdom, "We shall see Zark. Your plan may sound more appealing but it is an unwise choice. The council has made its decision. Only time will tell if it has made the right decision." With that, he left the meeting room, his stride calm, poised.

Long after the meeting, Zark still remembered the old priest's word. But instead of listening to them like he should have, the words angered him and he ended up hating the old priest.

Woo-hoo! So the first chapter is finished! This take place waaaay before Tidus and the others are born so we won't be seeing them. Now tell me, what would you guys like to see better, Metabee with Brass or Warbandit with Brass? I think I know what the answer will be but you guys are the readers, so you guys get to decide! ^^ And we probably won't see any more of Ikki and the others. Except maybe in the end.
