Chapter 5: Dolls
I hummed a sad tune while I was playing the violin. It was my favorite song and it was called 'Polovtsian Dance'. I remember hearing it playing when I was a girl, and eventually learned to play it on my violin. Everyone had gone except for Zidane, but I decided to sit on Garnet's bed until he woke up. " hmm, hmm, hmm," I could go on for hours playing this one song because in a way it reminded me of my past and when ever I heard someone else play it, I would always cry. It reminded me of my lost boyfriend who left Alexandria for some job in Lindblum, but he was never heard from again. Zidane was still out and I was still playing the violin, but I didn't care how many times I played that one song.it was just a memorable piece. Zidane woke up finally and his eyes went to my violin. " I didn't know you could do that!" " Even the toughest of warriors have a soft side." I said putting my violin down. " I was ordered to put the Princess to sleep with my music. I guess it worked with everyone else huh?" I laughed. " C'mon my music can't be that bad!" I laughed with Zidane. " So were you the one singing?" " I was humming, I don't think I can sing very well." I said picking up my violin and playing another joyful tune. " So where did everyone go?" " Oh, they didn't really tell me they just said they would be out. But this is a small village.you should find them easy." I played 'ode do joy' while Zidane walked out the door. After an hour or so Zidane walked back into the room. " Have you seen Vivi?" " No, why? is something wrong?" Garnet or Dagger as some might call her walked into the room, claiming not to see Vivi either. I set down my violin and rushed out the door along with Zidane and 'Dagger' to find Vivi. " Zidane, where was the last place you saw Vivi?" I asked. " He was near the windmill, I don't know why he would disappear like this." Zidane answered. We then heard a 'sniff, sniff' and we knew it was Vivi. " Vivi, are you okay?"
...Yes..
" Are you hurt?"
..no. ..They told me to stay here.
" Don't worry we'll get you out soon! poor Vivi, he must be scared. I hope he is okay." I said as we all stood in a little circle. " Zidane, something odd is happening in this village." Dagger said. " Yah, I wonder. And did you notice that there are no adults here?" Zidane asked. " Your right, I guess I haven't been paying much attention to that until now." I said looking around the empty streets. " And where is Rusty?" Zidane said. "Hmm rusty, I think I grow to like that name tee hee," I thought to myself. " Okay we should all split up. The guard looks for Steiner- " Zidane, my name is Heather." " Right okay and me and Garnet look for Vivi." " Wait a minute." I said holding my hands to my hips. " I have to keep an eye on you, Zidane! I can't trust you with Garnet- " Uh her name is dagger." " Groan whatever! I can't trust you with DAGGER alone!" " Why I- " Zidane just let her come." Dagger said. " Oh alright! C'mon lets go get Vivi," We walked around just about everywhere, my feet were getting tired and I just had to suggest something, " Zidane. c'mon we have been searching forever! Why don't you let me lead now!' " Sure whatever!" He said. " Hmm the windmill looks like a good place to start!" I said. We walked over there and saw a round door thing that leads to the underground. I examined it and it opened! " Alright! Lets go save Vivi!" I said jumping in. We landed in a cold damp underground factory of some kind. " Whoa, what is this place?" Zidane yelled. " It must be a factory, because all the mechanical stuff!" I said. We walked a little farther until Dagger and I noticed crates with the Alexandrian seal on it. " Heather, those crates are from Alexandria!" " Yah, what is going on?" We paused to hear a few voices in the distance and rushed closer to it.
" What are we going to do with him?" " I don't know how he escaped, he is just a doll but just put him with all the rest!"
" Vivi! I'm going to hurt those- I covered Zidane's mouth and dragged him out of the room. " But what about Vivi! You aren't just going to let him get hurt are you?!" " Oh shut up! It is a matter of getting to the right place at the right time!" " How are we going to do that?" Dagger asked. " Don't worry, I got a plan listen up!"
Vivi had walked over to where the men told him. Before he was stuffed in a box he noticed the conveyor belt with black mages hanging, but the funny thing was they weren't really black mages.they were dolls.
