Yes all the items have been obtained and yes I did grind the shit out of that scene for the Girl who wouldn't. Easy big ass money. Erik is a Red Mage and a Samurai but yet only knows Steal as his outside ability.


(Chapter Two - Into the Mist)

On the far right tower Erik was seen chasing the goddess girl, but on the other tower, the knight Albert Steiner was watching them and realized the girl was the Princess. The princess climbs on top of the edge and looks at Erik, then falls off the edge. Steiner goes ballistic, thinking she's falling to her death, when, in fact, she's holding onto a cord of some sort. Erik holds onto a cord as well, along with Steiner. Garnet and Erik land comfortably on a mattress of some sort, while Steiner smashes into the side of the Theater Ship. Erik jumps down inside the ship, where the entire band was playing and looking around he then said: "Huh? Where'd the princess go?"

The hooded Princess falls down and he catches her and says: "Well then, looks like I've succeeded. Get ready to sign out."

Rushing inside the ship as they entered the dressing room where Zidane was and he was making out with his girlfriend. Ruby wears a low-cut white blouse with short sleeves. Her hourglass figure is cinched in by a brown corset-like belt. Short green panels grace the sides of her teal, asymmetrical skirt. She wears opaque white tights, pink shoes, short white gloves with brown ribbons, and a brown choker. Her hair is gray, but much of it is covered by a large, light blue bandana.

Erik coughed as he held the princess tightly and the duo separated as Garnet tried to break free from his gasp and Zidane asked: "Is that…" Erik nodded and said: "Yup, knock it off Princess, your Uncle Cid had sent us."

She paused and said: "Wait Uncle Cid…" she jumps out of his arms and Ruby says: "This girl's wilder than a buckin' bronco!"

Erik raised his hand stopping the duo and he said: "True, she had me and Blank chase all over the palace. Anyway, change plans guys. We are going to plan B, the knights know the Princess went off somewhere and she wasn't in her room."

This surprised them, plans where Erik was the one in the field never go bad like this. Soon they heard Steiner calling out for her and Erik said: "Let's go!"

Zidane kissed Ruby and followed them down the stairs to the store room where they fought the boss earlier. Locking the door behind them Erik then said: "Zidane, making sure the hatch is cleared. I'll send the word through the tubes. Should be in the short recess so the crew will get the message."

He nodded and entered the meeting room, walking to the tube with a funnel he said: "Attention troupe, we have a code minue, I repeat code minus. Thank you."

Code Minus was for the plan with Erik having taken a turn that caused it to be blown from an outside source or by the target itself. So it was Plan B, time. Garnet then asked: "Do you know why Uncle Cid did this?"

Shaking his head, but he did say: "I have a logical guess. Word through merchants is that Alxandtia has been receiving a rise in taxes for the military and new weapons are being built. Cid fearing for your safety wanted you away from your mother."

Garnet knew the last few days, her mother got even bitter and started to resent her. She was not the woman she knew. A knock was heard and a jiggle of the handle as Steiner, the knight said: "Princess! Where are you?"

Grabbing her hand he dragged her to the meeting room and saw Cinna with Zidane as he said: "What're you two doing'? Come on, this way!"

The storeroom door was busted down as Steiner had entered and the group jumped down taking a shot to the engine room. But then Steiner and a bulky knight burst in and saw the hatch was opened and he said: "The princess must be down there."

The bulky said: " I-I'll go first, sir!"

He jumped down into it and only his torso and head remained above and he began struggling. Steiner shouted in shock: "Hey! What do you think you're doing!"

The knight replied: "Captain, sir! I think I am stuck sir!"

Steiner growled in frustration and ran off, but the knight laughed and leaned back to reveal the face of Blank as he said: "He bought it."

As they landed Zidane then said looking at the Princess: " Wow, you're really athletic, Princess. I think I'm falling for you!"

Garnet chuckled and said: "This is nothing. I have been training to escape the castle, after all."

Zidane sighed and said: "What a waste. If only you weren't a princess..."

Garnet then said, acting serious: "We have no time for idle banter. Come, let us move on!"

Erik looked at Zidane and said: " Get to your spot man, we have the closing soon."

Nodding as he rushed off out before the others. Running out into a large hallway, Erik, Garnet and Cinna were cut off by Steiner who emerged from a hallway on the other side. The man laughed and said triumphantly: "Aha! Princess! I, Steiner, have come to your rescue!"

Soon enough the knight from earlier runs in behind them and the Knight said, acting his part: "You needn't worry, Your Highness!"

Steiner smiled and said, placing his fist on his hips: "Good work! This will be remembered as the Pluto Knights' finest hour! Now my sister will actually show me some respect and the Queen will finally recognize us more than just dirty dogs."

Erik then looked at the man with empathy. His words struck true, he felt a kinship with him. Trying to do right, only for a bitch of a sister to tear it all down. As the knight laughed and fist bumped Cinna the knight aka Blank said: "Just relax, Princess. We'll get you outta here!"

Steiner's eyes widened and said pointing at him: " WHAT!!! You are not one of my knights!"

Cinna then said: " You can…" Blank then said: "... Leave the Princess… " but all three of them said: "To Us!"

They drew their weapons and took a ready stance. Unsheathing his sword, Steiner rushed with a powerful thrust, Cinna blocked it only to get pushed back. Blank came in with a wide spin slash, but Steiner ducked and countered it by butting the bottom of the hilt into him. But he got an uppercut from Erik's knee and roundhouse kick to the chick making him stagger and fumble back. Erik flipped back as Cinna jabbed the butt of his hammer into Steiner gut and spun having to hit him in the chest, the armor and aura absorbed most of the force, but the blow was still dangerous. Blank rushed in and locked blades with the Captain, only for Erik to flip over them and swiped a leather hat and a spare silk shirt he had on him.

Jumping back to avoid a swing, Blank slashed at him in the back with a critical hit. Steiner spun and knocked Blank back and knocked Cinna away, but Erik x-slashed him on the chest making him stagger and Erik's comrades joined his side. Steiner took a stance and said: "Enough!"

He rushed and power slashed as his sword glowed and nailed Blank hard and his armor completely shattered releasing the Oglops causing Steiner, Cinna and Blank to run around like headless chickens. Grabbing her hand Erik said: "Now's our chance! Come on!"

The duo ran into another room. But upon stage Baku was monologuing: "Tonight, I shall finally see my daughter Cornelia betrothed to Prince Schneider! And then Prince Schneider and his kingdom will be mine!"

He laughed as two guards fought alongside King Leo before walking onto the stage, holding Zidanes' arms. The soldier Zenero said: "Your majesty!"

The other Benero said: "We caught the intruder!"

King Leo then said facing them: "Why, my poor Marcus! Hark, lad. No matter how much thou dost treasure Cornelia...no matter how deeply she might believe she doth love thee… never shall I see her marry a peasant such as thee!"

As a bell rang once and the boss continued saying: "When the bell strikes three… Under the ax thou shall be!"

Below the stage the duo boarded the lift and he said: " Just roll with it.*

As the number two began to rise as Steiner rushed in and shouted: "Stop!"

Steiner walks onto the platform parallel to Erik and Garnet's. Both platforms begin to rise upwards. A second bell was heard as the boss said: "Furthermore…" the platforms had risen up onto the stage and since they got the message they all nodded and Steiner asked in surprise: "Ho? What's all this?"

Zidane breaks free and was relieved that Rose wouldn't blame him for this as she was with the others preparing the get out of dodge protocol that Erik called it. He then says lovingly: "Cornelia!"

Erik whispered: "Roll with it. And his name is Zidane."

She then said in the acting part: "Oh, Zidane! Oh, Zidane! How I've missed you so much!"

She hugs him and says: " I wish never to leave thy side. Prithee, lead me from this place!"

Erik, facing the man, said to him: " See, King Leo? Thou shouldst give them thy blessing!"

King Leo waved his arm in defiance and shouted: " Never! Never leave his side, thou sayest? Foolish banter! I'll not allow it! Cornelia shall marry none other than this man - Prince Schneider! Is that not so, Prince Schneider?"

Leo walked to Steiner when he said that and he looked stunned then said: " M-Marry the princess? Me!?"

King Leo nodded and said: "Aye! And this traitorous crew, I will put to death!"

The two guards lunged at the two thieves and both knocked them aside and defeated them. As they ran away in fear Leo approached the Princess and said in a gentle fatherly voice: "Pray, sweet daughter, come home to the castle with me."

Garnet shook her head and said: "Nay, Father! I shan't return!"

King Leo growled and said while yanking her arm

"Cornelia... Trouble me no more. This wedding is for their own welfare. Be mindful of that."

Zidane grabbed his weapon and said seriously: "Not if I can help it!!! Now is my moment of vengeance! For my parents, and for my love, Cornelia..." As he drew the blade he finished saying before rushing to end it: "I shall cut thee down!"

Zidane steps forward steps forward to stab Leo. Garnet goes in front of Leo, who steps back, and she gets stabbed by the sword, going "Ngh!" in the process. On the other side of the screen, Steiner begins to break down, thinking she was actually stabbed and Zidane asks in total shock: "No... Cornelia!!!"

Garnet then said falling to the ground: "Zid…ane forgive me. I still love my father..."

King Leo cried out rushing to hold his daughter: "Cornelia!"

Steiner cried out: "Princess!"

Garnet reached out and touched Leo's face as she said, faking her death: "Prithee, forgive my selfishness, Father, and spare my sweet Marcus..." As she went lifeless Zidane slumped beside her and said: " What have I done!? Am I never to hear her loving voice again!? Am I cursed never again to feel her soft touch!? O, cruel fate! Thou hast robbed me of all I treasure!"

Taking his blade he stabbed himself and Erik shouted: "Zidane!"

Rushing as the two grabbed each other's arms and he said: "Thank you for everything… bro… ther."

On the balcony the queen was in tears and she cried out: "Oh, my! This year's show is splendid! Waaaaaaa! Why did she have to die!? Why!?"

But then all of a sudden Vivi ran on stage with two knights and he raised his hands as embers formed around them and he said: "Don't come any closer!"

Vivi casts the low tier fire spell, which hit's Garnet hood and she jumps up feeling the heat and throws it off revealing her face. Baku then called out: "Zidane! It's time!"

A thump was heard on stage and they saw Beatrix drawing her sword and said: "Not so fast!"

Steiner then said: "Sister!"

Drawing his swords Erik looked to his brother in arms and he said: " Zid, I'll keep her occupied. Keep her safe."

Using a whirlwind sprint he locked blades with the woman as sparks flew between the swords. Flipping off of her he came in with a wide swing, as she blocked it, but ducked underneath his kick to her head and rolled to avoid the drop kick from it. She looked at him and said: "You're no ordinary warrior. You fight with not just your weapon but your entire body."

Taking his stance with reverse gripping his left and holding his right normally he said: " Let's dance shall we."

(Start Playing Get Outta Here, Blacklite)

She rushed and stabbed, slashed, uppercut, crescent slash and swiped at him. He blocked and partied her attacks, flipping back he lunged and let loose a barrage of fury slashed and attacked. Beatrix parried them, but he got a cut on her cheek, arm and leg. She was surprised, but grew serious before she lunged and did a powerful thrust. Blocking it with his swords, Erik was flung back by the force of the attack grunting; he flipped a slide across the stage. Spinning his blades in hand he charged and used the slow time shouted and as time returned to normal, she blinked and felt a force hit her in the side and she found herself flung into the plastered castle causing it to topple onto her.

Taking his stance, he watched as she emerged and said: "You are definitely different."

She lunged and jumped as thunder and lightning coated her sword and as he evaded, she stabbed the ground but the electricity followed him and electrocuted him making him cry out. Grunting in, he shook it off and his blue eyes flared as a flame-like aura emerged from them, surprising her.

He lunged and brought both swords to his sides and brought them in to pincer her, she was about to jump when the aura of a chomping dragon horizontal was seen she felt a massive force and was thrown back. Bouncing to the edge she pushed herself up, sure she was holding back for the sack of the Princess' safety, but this boy, no warrior, was something else. Both stood ready and charged coming blow to blow and Erik felt thrilled, finally someone who he can actually battle against, to push himself, someone to make him better. His eyes' flames grew more focused and he moved and kicked into the air and swiped something from her. In his left hand with his other sword, was an iron sword.

Blocking her next attack his sword shattered, but he slash her shoulder now wielding the Iron sword and took a stance ready for the duel to continue. With the Iron sword in hand, both lunged at one another when the ship rocketed as it was pierced by harpoons. Beatrix lost her footing and had fallen into the pool below and looked up seeing the soldiers fired chains into the ship, before firing a sentient flaming bomb aboard and watched as the ship exploded in a blazing inferno. The Queen cheers and laughs in triumphant thought that the ship was destroyed. But her eyes widened as the Prima emerged flying forth from the smoke. But it slowly began to fall apart and Ruby had fallen off and the crew saw this and watched as she had landed in the water and emerged unharmed making them breathe a sigh in relief.

(Song End)

As the Prima had fire and smoke coming from everywhere as it sailed over Alexandria and pieces began falling. She was beyond pissed and snapped at her fan in anger. As the ship was almost out of Alexandria's range it began losing altitude and Cinna cried out from the cockpit: "We're gonna crash, hang on everyone!"

As the ship descends into the thick missy below the cliff with it being almost pitch black. The ship crashed in the center of a vast forest. But upon impact the sound of an explosion with a column of fire erupted from it and could be seen from far away. As the Queen snarls she pounded her fist into the seat and said: "Garnet… I never imagined you would do such a thing. Perhaps you're not such a helpless little girl anymore… Zorn! Thorn!"

As the jesters emerged she then asked: " Is our little experiment ready?"

Zorn nodded and said: "Yes, Your Majesty. It is combat-ready."

Thorn nodded and said: *Easily terminate Princess Garnet, it can, Your Majesty."

The Queen's eyes looked ready to kill and she said: " No, I need her alive! Bring her back at once! But kill anyone who is with her."

Both bowed and rushed off as the Queen said: " Oh my precious daughter, I have big plans for you… well more so with that godly power of yours."

She began laughing like a maniac and walking into the palace. Beatrix looked over the horizon and frowned. She sensed her brother wouldn't die that easily, he was too stubborn. Turning around she went to have search parties sent out and to notify any forts to keep their eyes out.

[OVA 1]

Erik sighed as he looked over his reports. The battles he faced and treasures and things he obtained from Gaia has given the treasury life. He and his forces alone could survive on it for years. He did feel bad… a little bit about robbing his friend's people's capital and holy land of much treasure. But it had to be done, his forefathers the third had discovered his enemy could easily gain access to other worlds if she paid attention beyond the void and aether. Gnarl walked in and said: "My lord, are you sure it is wise to assist those filthy vermin?"

Looking up with a look of ridicule and rage, Gnarl flinched and Erik said: "Yes, they are skilled spearmen and have pledged an alliance with us. Besides, having kingdoms we could trade and barter for resources is better. If we pillaged and raided them, the resources would dry up and nothing would be accomplished. Besides, one of my concubines is from those verminel, speak more politely Gnarl or you'll be a target for our Black Mage force. Understand."

The threat was cleared and the minion gulped. Despite how Erik wasn't traditional, he would harm anyone easily who doubted him. And Gnarl questioned and doubted him more than a few times. Erik pulled out and unraveled it to reveal blueprints for an airship. It looked to be a merge of the Hilda Garde, Invincible and the Dev Aveza as it was slick, smooth and not covered in propellers as it four wings, two small ones in the front and two curved ones in the back as the points pointed forward. Various cannons could be seen, some singular, and some double, as the doubles were mainly mounted above and below.

Midgardsormr was the ship's name, as at the helm was a small deck with a shield for people who wish to walk along it, as the cockpit had a view over the deck and to watch the skies. But two metal panels on the front opened to reveal the Invincible weapon which had been reconfigured into a cannon. He saw the Dev station of such a weapon and to see his new Master wished to use it on his enemies was most thrilling. He was turbines for the ship on the base of the ship and the wings with large propellers built into the wings. Gnarl said: "Master when the ship will be built."

He looked at him and said: "Once we have the materials, for the ship to be built we need to find an alloy that would suit our needs and a proper power source. While the Gulug has much power, it won't do. Well not yet, once the heart is at fifty percent, I'll merge the item with another proper power source or craft it myself."

Later that day Erik walked into the Heart room and saw the fragments of the dark heart forming a ring around the crystal with the earth fragment of the nether heart on the top left. The palace was much stronger and barriers and with the brown hive back and the life force collected, he had legions of battlions ready to use. But the normal brown hive wasn't going to work anymore, it was time for an upgrade itself.


Yes the Ova gives hints and moments of what is to come. But I am thinking of making a timeline with Erik becoming a SeeD operative but leaves once Ultimecia is defeated. So yeah an OVA, you got a view of the Midgardsormr, the future airship and it is a beast in itself. But it will not be operational as of yet.
