(Writer's block is eeeeeeeeevil... but here's the next update! Cloud's
first boat ride! That can't be good... and something about Cloud is
revealed in this chapter...something you may or may not expect...)

The Begining of Two Destinies _______________________________________________________________________
Chapter I
Rough Sailing
Pitching. Spining. Tossing. Turning.
All of the sudden movements of the boat caused Cloud's stomach to lurch. He groaned quietly, clutching his stomach.
Mental note: stay away from boats in the future.
Cloud was suddenly wishing he had stayed in the Bone Village, but his need to put distance between himself and the decimated Siena'shon caused him to realize that that would not be an option. The town was too close...much too close. He had to get away...
Another sudden movement on the boat's part flung the boy headfirst back into the Present... and into a crate. He groaned. This day couldn't possibly get any worse...
Could it?
_______________________________________________________________________
The sky had become dark very quickly. The vessal's slight pitching had increased dramaticly, and Cloud remembered something he had heard in the past:
"If it seems things can't get worse, they usually do."
A wave crashed into the side of the ship with such force that it nearly capsized. The other passengers of the small vessal were in a panic, screaming like there was no tomorrow. Well, for some there may not be.
Cloud was certainly afraid, but nowhere near as afraid as he had been of the creature from the day and a half before. No, that had not been fear. It had been something much deeper than that. Something that had touched his very soul...
Another wave smashed into the boat mercilessly. And no one noticed as a seven-year-old boy was flung over the side...

Light...?
Darkness...?
^Do you understand?^
(No.)
^Think!^
(Who are you?)
^You must find that out for yourself.^
LISTEN. IT HAS ONLY JUST BEGUN.
^Do you know your importance to the Planet?^
(I have no importance.)
^You are wrong.^
THE GUARDIAN HAS YET TO AWAKEN.
(Awaken...?)
^Seek the Light that is your opposite. That which is the sibling of your soul^
(I...will.)
^Our fate rests upon your shoulders...^
Young Cetra.
(Were you surprised? Well, I'm out of camp now, so I'll have more thime to work on this. The next chapter should be out soon! Don't forget to review!)
