Michele's Saga
Chapter 4, Blitz Off!
That tall lady opened the door to this "Infirmary" and inside was Hazel and Michele. I couldn't resist but run up to Hazel and hug her.
"Hazel! I'm happy ta see you!" I squealed with delight seeing a familiar face. Michele was lying on a bed holding her head. "You feel okay?" I asked. "Yeah. Just a headache." She told me. "My men are trained to protect their commanding officer. They thought you were attacking me." The mechanical lady said.
"Thank goodness I found you Emi. I was starting to worry about you. You're parents told me to take care of you when our world seemed to collapse. I wow to protect you until we reach your parents again." Hazel told me bowing to show respect. "I vow to get you to your parents! They must be worried." Michele said.
"Who are your parents anyway Emi?" the lady asked me. "Don't you know them?" I asked. "No. What's your name anyway? Full name?" she rephrased. "My name is Emerald Kisaragi. Call me Emi for short. My parents are Perry Gainsborough and Yuffie Kisaragi." I told her feeling proud of my heritage.
"You're Perry and Yuffie's daughter? I never knew he had a daughter." The lady said with shock. "Yes. Did you know them?" I asked her sounding almost as surprised. "Yes. I went to their wedding." She told me. "Cool. Of course I don't really think weddings are that great." I told them.
"Why not?" Michele asked me. "I think it's nasty. I don't like boys much." I told them. The three of them started to giggle a little from my response. "You'll think differently in a few years." Michele told me. I hope I don't.
"Where now? We have Emi back so let's find Perry and Yuffie." Michele said to all of us. Then the other lady who's name I don't know yet held her hand to her visor.
"Yes? A-are you sure about that? Understood!" she said removing her hand. "I got orders to travel with you. Seems my commanding officers feel that I can infiltrate the Lugara military easier. I guess I'm stuck with you three." She said shaking her head.
"Hey lady? What's your name?" I asked her tugging at her pant leg. "Oh I must not have told you. My name is Elena. Pleasure to meet you Emerald." She said bending down at me. "Call me Emi. My parents only called me Emerald when I was in deep trouble." I said. Not just my parents really, I wasn't the most well behaved person at school.
"The nearest place to go from Zargot is Garret. It's quite a busy city." Elena told us as she turned to leave the room. "Hey, Emi and I were heading there until you kidnapped us. Well you did save us from the monster so thanks." Michele said to Elena. "Well let's get going. It isn't far enough for us to take a transport so we'll have to walk it." She told all of us.
"But it's late though." I said to them wiping my tired eyes. "It's only like eight." Elena told me. "She's only ten. She sleeps a bit earlier than we do." Hazel said to everyone as I just sat on the floor and snoozed. I didn't care where just as long as I got the rest I deserved.
When I woke up we were in some other room. "Where are we?" I asked. "Garret Hotel. We carried you here. You must have been tired. We can go around the city if you like." Hazel said smiling in front of my face. "Sure. Lead the way." I said rubbing my eyes.
We exited the hotel and the city was huge, like a smaller Junon. People were everywhere and so much was happening.
"I'll try my best to lead the way. I don't know this place at all." Hazel told me laughing a bit. I held her hand as the two of us made our way over to this large building. It was almost spherical and people were everywhere in it. "What is this place?" I asked Hazel. "I'm not too sure myself. Why don't we just go inside to find out." She said smiling. It was a stadium of some kind with people everywhere and then there was a large sphere of water in the center.
"Wow. That's so cool!" I shouted with excitement. People began to enter the water from both ends. One team had blue and the other had yellow. "What game is this?" I asked aloud. "According to this handout it is called Blitzball." Hazel said reading from a small handout. "Sounds cool. I wish I could play someday." I said aloud over the roaring cheers from the crowd.
Elena and Michele came over to us after a few minutes of play. "Found you two! I still don't like this whole idea of traveling with you three!" Elena complained. "What game is this?" Michele asked. "Its called Blitzball. Quite popular in this world." Elena explained. "I'd love to play it when I get older." I told her. "I wouldn't count on it. Blitzball is a male sport. Women aren't allowed to play." She told me. "Well I'm just a girl, and not a woman." I told her. "I hate children. We shouldn't be wasting time here!" now she sounded angry.
Then we heard gunshots. Elena immediately looked up at the stands and saw the shooter. People were in a panic and rioting everywhere. "Come! We need to check if somebody got hit!" Michele yelled to us. "Take the kid! You come with me!" Elena commanded to Hazel. Michele grabbed me as we ran to the large pool.
Fish like monsters were attacking the players. One of the players who had escaped warned us not to go in. "We have to go in to save them!" Michele pleaded with him. "But you won't be able to breathe! Take these!" he said handing us two small masks. These must let us breathe underwater. We both readied ourselves as we jumped into the water.
All the other players but this chunky one were safe. He was throwing a blitzball, as I'm told, at one of them killing it. Michele nodded to me as we prepared ourselves. I took Kata and cut one of the fish in half as Michele punched one sending it away. The player we saved was happy but then a large machine emerged from the depths and shot a rocket at the player. He was fine except his armor was destroyed revealing...a woman!?
She had her blonde hair tied up in the back, her eyes were a shade of green and she looked rather pretty. I thought only men could play this game. If I could talk over this mask then I'd say something but we had a mechanical monster to deal with.
It readied itself judging from its sounds as I slashed it with Kata. I knew throwing Gara wouldn't do much in water. The woman threw her blitzball at the machine and it seemed to be damaged a bit. This thing isn't as strong as I thought. Michele cast Bolt on it, good thing she knew her magic or we all would've been hit. In a series of explosions the enemy was gone. The three of us swam out from the water and decided to go after Elena and Hazel.
"Thanks for your help!" The blonde player told us. "Hey wait we have questions!" Michele said before she noticed that I had run up to where Elena was. "Emi come back!" Michele yelled chasing me. "Guess they need me!" The unknown player told herself following.
Elena was fighting with two soldiers dressed very much like her. Once we all got ready to fight the two left. "Who were those guys?" Michele asked Elena. "They looked like Lugara troops. Why would they do something like this? Who's this?" Elena said looking at the blitzball player among us.
"We saved her and it turns out that women do play this game. Shows what you know!" I beamed with victory. "Well not legally. My team tried to hide that I was a woman. I have no choice now but to quit blitzball. Thanks for your help anyway." She said walking away from us.
"Poor girl. Maybe we could take her with us." Hazel suggested. "Absolutely not! She plays sports, how could she help us? Besides our ranks are very pathetic to begin with!" Elena said with disgust. She didn't like us from the tone in her voice. "Hey Elena! Stop being so stuck up!" Michele shouted to her, this didn't look good. "I'm the leader of this little 'group' so you'd better mind your mouth." She retorted. "Who made you leader? I will never follow the orders of someone like you!" Michele snapped back. This was starting to upset me. "Look! We'd better get out of here before we get dragged further into this mess! So I hope you at least have the brain power to understand that!" Elena yelled aloud at the top of her lungs. "Fuck you! I won't take this!" Michele said before turning and running away.
"Serves her right." Elena said proud of herself. "You didn't have to do that. Let's go Emi." Hazel said offering me her hand. I took it as we left. "Damn girl!" Elena muttered to herself before following us.
Michele wasn't back at the hotel when we arrived. "I hope she doesn't leave us." I said softly. "I could care less." Elena said casually. "Who cares what you think?" I said kicking her in the shins and then running into my room locking the door. "She's just like her mother. Ouch." She said limping away on her wounded leg.
Sorry this one was so short. But the next one should be a little deeper than this chapter was.
