..::"He got caught!" Vivi cheered. They all smiled at each other and
headed off towards the huge city of Lindblum, the really didn't know that
their journey was just starting::..
As they entered the docks of Lindblum Mina and Vivi stared wide eyed in awe. They both have never seen a city like the one they were in before. Mina watched as a man with a long robe on and a white beard walk over to their ship and looked at the ship disapprovingly. Mina tugged on Vivi's robe and pointed to the scowling man. Zidane and the others had yet to come out of the ship and the man was staring at the two. He walked over to the two and looked at Mina. His eyes widened as he saw her horn. Mina laughed and touched it, causing it to glow for a moment before turning back to normal.
"Never seen a horn before?" Mina smiled before hearing a loud gasp behind her. She turned in a wave of sliver to see the princess smiling at the man.
"Are you giving my friends a hard time, Minster?" She asked with a smile. The man looked at the princess before he was incased in a hug. Steiner and Gunner stood doing the Alexandria solute, and Zidane just leaned against the ship and yawned.
"Princess! It is so good to see that you are ok! Regent Cid is hoping to see you, all of you. He heard about the play non-stop from that witch days ago. Please follow me." He said in a huff before ushering the princess down the small bridge towards the main rooms of the castle. Everyone followed but Mina, who stood back feeling that she wasn't part of the group and watched them walk away without looking back. She just smiled and shook her head and looked up to see Vivi looking back to her.
"Miss Mina, are you coming?" The small boy asked as he waited behind the group. Mina smiled and walked over to him, resting her hand on his hat.
"No, it really is not my place to join you guys, go ahead and don't worry about me. Tell everyone I went to go find a place to eat." Mina said and she pushed the small boy in the direction of the group. He looked at her before rushing to catch up. Mina turned at walked through some rooms and walked out to a huge balcony. She laughed as the wind tickled and flew all around her before she looked out towards the huge city. She wasn't very high from the ground and she saw a mattress she could land on, so she jumped, right into a huge crowd of people. They all backed away from her as she spead off towards the bar that was down the street. She stopped as she looked in a mirror to see that her ears were different, the looked like that were almost pointed in some way, but she just brushed as she saw a black cloak for only 200 gil. She quickly bought it and pulled it on so she wouldn't get any unwanted attention. She slowly walked into the bar and sat down by a person that was dressed in red. She glanced at the person to see that they had a mouse tail and face. The person's dark, purple eyes turned towards Mina, studied her for a moment before turning back to the drink, and ordered another.
"Now people won't stare at me for my horn." She smiled as got her drink and took a swig of the bitter fluid. Mina could tell that the rat lady had heard because eyes got fixed on her again.
"Excuse me, did you say you had a horn?" The rat asked and Mina smiled under the protection of her cloak.
"Yes, I did" Mina stated before pulling her cloak down and showing her horn to the fellow, "I am Mina, and you are?" The rat laughed at the younger girl and put out a fuzzy gray hand.
"I am Freya Crescent, a royal dragon knight." She said as she pushed back her long white hair from her eyes. Her red hat was bellowing to a point with two small "wings" on the sides and what looked to be holes for eyes. Her red coat flared out naturally on all ends and a flag like cloth was draped across her chest. Her tail had an orange bow the same color as her skintight pants. She had no shoes on and no gloves so her hands and feet are full of fur.
"I have never seen you here before, what brings you to thins place?" Freya asked and Mina went into the story of which she was and they talked for what seemed like hours. As the sun came up an angry Zidane, who never noticed the mouse hybrid that stared wide-eyed at him dragged Mina from her chair. When he dragged her all the way up to his room in the hotel, he pushed her down towards her bed.
"Well, have a good time?" He asked. She laughed and smiled at him, her eyes starting to droop.
"Anytime is a good time my friend, any time." She said with a yawn. She fell asleep and Zidane just shook his head before stealing the bed across from hers, and falling into a slumber of his own.
The next day Zidane woke to find that Mina was gone, and he didn't know where everyone else was, so he decided to look around. He ran over towards the bar where he thought Mina might be. As he walked in he saw her talking to the same person, and he watched as the person turned towards him. He slowly walked over and sat next to Mina, ordering soup of the day.
"Hello Zidane, can't even say hello to an old friend I see." Freya said turning towards the boy. He smiled as a response.
"What brings you to Lindblum? Weren't you staying as a knight in Burmecia?" He asked as he looked down at the puke green soup.
"I have come for the competition in search of a friend." She replied and Mina looked back and forth from the two. She smiled as she realized they were old friends who need to catch up.
"I am going to look for Vivi, talk to you later Zidane! Freya, it was nice to see you again." Mina said as she stood up and pulled her cloak over her head.
"Anytime, maybe we will fight alongside each other, I would love to see those Zodiacs!" Freya said as Mina walked out the door with a wave. Freya just smiled and turned to talk with Zidane.
Vivi looked at the nut in his hand and smiled at his luck. He was able to get it free from the shop owner and he left before she could change her mind. He looked around and noticed all of the 'Festival of the hunt' posters.
"I hope I don't have to do that. I wouldn't win." He sighed as he walked over to the trains that connected the three districts. He was in the Business District, but the other two are the Industrial District and the Theater District. He rested at the castle over night and left to find Zidane, but he couldn't. Mina said she was going to be at a bar but he still could not find that either. Right as he was about to get on the train someone ran out and bumped him to the ground, causing his nut to roll away.
"Vivi! I am so sorry." Mina gasped as she grabbed his nut and helped him up, "Here is your nut." She smiled as he took it and she started to walk away. He followed and tugged at her sleeves.
"Miss. Mina, I have been looking all over for you. You must come back to the castle, Mr. Cid wants to see your Eidolon." He squeaked. She stopped and looked down at him.
"Eidolon? What in the world is that?" She said with a shake of her head.
"Your Aries." He responded.
"Oh, I see. Lets go." The both walked away towards the huge castle. As she entered the room, she saw a man that looked like a mix between a frog and a bug. She just ignored it and smiled slightly.
"You called?" She said after he watched a moment. Cid noticed her voice did not falter and she must have not been from this world.
"Please, tell me of this 'Aries' that you have power over." He said slowly. She blinked and thought over her words carefully, and the man watched.
"I don't know," They all gasped and almost fell over, "Aries can tell you about his life!" She said as she jumped around and stopped in the middle of the room. Every one backed away as far as they could and Cid watched calmly.
"Go ahead." He stated and Minister Artania jumped to his side.
"Are you sure of this." He stated.
"Yes." Cid answered and watched as Mina looked her hands together and prayed for a summoning.
That is very short, but next will be Aires's story of the Zodiac. Review, cuz I forgot to turn off the no anonymous entries, so sorry. REVIEW PLEASE!
