"Are you sure that all of you saw them?"
Zidane looked at Freya and nodded. "Yeah...we are pretty sure about it. I wonder why they are out here now Kuja's gone...it just doesn't make sense."
Amarant stood up. "There may be another..."
"What are you talking about Amarant?" Zidane stood up.
"The business that I mentioned earlier...is that there has been rumors of a woman searching for Kuja."
Everyone looked at him with an odd expression on their faces.
"She's a Terran...with a silver dragon. I have seen her use magic before as well..."
Silver Dragon...
"It could have been her dragon that you saw...but yet you say there was two."
Amarant looked at Freya silently for a moment.
"Hey...which direction were they headed."
Zidane scratched his head. "Um...the Lindblum/Alexandria gate...why Blank?"
Amarant walked out of the door.
"Hey! Wait up!" Zidane, Eiko and Vivi ran out after Amarant.
After catching up to the tall man, they caught the special aircab to the gate. Once there, Amarant took off again with an exasperating pace. Vivi and Eiko had a very difficult time keeping up. Even Zidane had to jog slightly to keep up.
"Will you slow down?!?"
Amarant paused for a moment, then started walking again, but his pace was slower this time. They boarded the train and rode it down to the station.
"Amarant…what's with you?"
He looked at Zidane. "I've met that woman before. If there is two dragons, Kuja may be still alive and with her."
"Kuja? Why Kuja?" Amarant shook his head. "I don't know. I think that the are connected...maybe related."
"I
see..."
They entered Treno and headed toward the auction house. A figure rounded the corner and walked straight into Amarant. With a startled yelp, the figure fell down, landing with a loud thud.
"Hey...are you okay?" Zidane extended a hand to help the person up. A slender hand slipped into his and he pulled. The woman, now on her feet again dusted herself off.
"Thank you." She stepped into the light and regarded Amarant. "Much apologies, Sir."
Zidane recognized her clothing. It was similar to Kuja's, however, the colors of black and aquamarine dominated the robes. He hair was long and black. To him, she was quite a sight to behold.
Amarant glared at her. "Where is Kuja."
"Kuja? What do you mean?"
Amarant stepped forward. His expression darkened as he growled. "Do not play such games with me. I know that you have been looking for Kuja..." Her eyes widened. "He's here...isn't he."
She began to back up and she bumped into a wall. Turning, she took off down the street, with Amarant in full pursuit. She ran into the Card Hall and hid in the crowd. When Amarant entered, he looked around and stepped away from the door. As he pressed on through the room, she slipped out the door and ran down the street, passing Zidane, Eiko and Vivi.
Amarant walked out a few minutes later. "She got away..." His face was creased in frustration.
"Was that who you were talking about in Lindblum?"
"Yes...and if she is here…then Kuja may be here in the city as well." He looked down the street and the back the other way. "But since she got away...they may not be here for much longer. Damn..."
Zidane looked down the street where she had run. "Well, we might as well head to the Auction house for now."
Amarant nodded silently and they left the Card Hall.
