Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! Mistake! Mistake! Mistake! Mistake! I
make a mistake last chap but I have changed it already. This mistake didn't
affect the story but the chapter. How? Well, I said I would have the
chapter called 3000 years ago up as Chapter 4. But I suddenly decided to
put up another chapter instead of this. And this chapter (3000 years ago)
will be the next chapter, Chap 5, OK? Sorry!

winky: Let Quina do this.
Quina: Me do what?
Winky: The disclaimers.
Quina: What disclaimer? Me can eat disclaimers?
Winky: No you can't. Disclaimers are not food. Oh never, I'll do this. I don't own any characters from FF9. The squaresoft did. However I own Anna and other characters and places not in the game. See Quina. This is called disclaimers, understand?
Quina: Who is Anna? Can eat?
Anna: Hey! How can you eat me, you long tongue freak!
Winky: Ok, ok. The chapter's about to begin. Get back into the story, Anna, even though you are not in this chap.
Anna: Ok. Wait! I'M NOT IN THIS CHAPTER!
Winky: Shut up! **Throws Anna back into the story**
Chapter 4 - Enter the Forbidden Corridor
Zidane was walking along the corridor, accompanied by the Wise One. The old man was taking him to some place but he did not know where. All he knew was that there was no one in the temple except for the two of them, for they didn't meet anyone for the past ten minutes. He was also wondering what happened to the Four Elders. The Wise One suddenly stopped at a door. Zidane, not realizing that he stopped, knocked into him.
" Sorry, I was thinking just now and I . . ." Zidane immediately apologized and was embarrassed. But before he could finish what he was saying, the Wise One raised his palm to his face and interrupted, " If you want to apologized, speck to my hand." Then, Zidane shut up his mouth up and said nothing. He was kind of startled by the old man's weird actions.
The king-sized wooden door was pushed opened. The features of the huge hall bowled Zidane. The walls were in a very unusual blue and it seemed to glow a little. There were many, many cushions piled up neatly at one side of the hall and the glass ceiling brightened the place up. " This is the meditation hall," the Wise One noted. " I have asked the Four Elders to take all the students away from the temple, so there'll be no one to disturb us. Feel free to speak your mind out or ask any question, Mr. Zidane," he said in a friendly and welcoming manner.
" Ok. But first, it's funny when I'm called 'Mr. Zidane' so just call me 'Zidane', ok?" Zidane requested.
" Sure, no problem," the Wise One said casually.
Feeling more comfortable around the old guy, Zidane decided to relax a bit and be more of himself. " Ask Questions? I have a lot in my brain now. So how shall I begin?" Zidane said to himself.
" Many questions, yet don't know which to ask first huh?" the Wise One rephrased Zidane's little dilemma. He rubbed his thumb and index finger against his hairy chin as he put on his thinking cup. As for Zidane, he wasn't sure why the Wise One would mind someone else's meaningless (to him) problem. There was an odd silence as the old man thinks. Even the notorious thief didn't dare to break the silence.
" Aha!" the Wise One exclaimed loudly and instantly as an idea hit him. But the sudden 'Aha' startled our unaware genome. " I know what to do," he suggested jovially, " I'll bring you through the Forbidden Corridor. After you know what happened, you'll know where to begin."
" The Forbidden Corridor? I don't know what it is but if it can help me, then why not?" Zidane accepted the Wise One's suggestion. The Wise one nodded and said, " Very well then. Follow me."
They went to the far right corner of the hall. That corner was gloomy as little amount of light shone on that area. There was a curtain and it was covering something. The old man drew the curtains, revealing a big gray door. The door looked ancient and obsolete as if it had not been used for years.
The Wise One, with some help from Zidane, pushed the old and 'stubborn' door opened. It was a room, an empty room. It was dark and dusky. " Stay here," the Wise One ordered as he groped around the moldy wall for an unlit torch. Once he found it, he cast a small Fire spell to light up the room. The light of the burning torch exposed the interior of the room. There were cobwebs everywhere, hanging on the corners of the ceiling, and the air in the room was not very clean; it's dusty. Zidane nearly choked inside the room. But the Wise One just laughed.
" Pardon me, Zidane. But you must understand that this room hasn't been opened or used for the past . . . umm . . . 20 years, I think," he joked. Zidane just stared blankly at him.
There was a small jewel stinking out of the wall. The Wise One turned the jewel like a door knot. A strange door appeared out of nowhere from the wall and it sledded opened. Zidane was bemused by the immediate appearance of the entrance. So this room wasn't empty like it's seemed to be, he thought. The door led to a pitch-black and deep doorway. It's like it was able to swallow anyone who entered.
" This is the Forbidden Corridor. Don't mind if you enter?" the Wise One asked. Zidane thought about the past. His discovery of the ring, the appearance of Anna and how he finally reached the source of this problem and the solutions ----- Sacred Meridian. And now, he's standing in front of the might-be answer. He had to give it a shot.
" Of course, I don't mind," Zidane answered without hesitation or regrets. Then, the Wise One said, " Well lad, let me tell you something. I do not know what's waiting for you in there. But don't worry, I'll be with you." He patted Zidane's bare shoulder to reassure him. Zidane just nodded.
Both Zidane and the Wise One entered the creepy and mysterious Forbidden Corridor.
Once again, sorry for the mistakes and any inconveniences. What happen in the Forbidden Corridor? Wanna know? Just catch the next chapter - 3000 years ago. Pls. read and review.
