I'm glad people are liking this fic. I'm doing my best with what I have.
Chapter 6
Seperation
We all headed for the lift to the deck to fight this "Evrae" beast.
"Might I suggest buying something before fighting?" Rin said running towards us. Tidus purchased a few items and distributed them among us. I got 2 Potions and an Antidote. I guess these help, but I had no idea what they'd do.
"We gotta pay!?" Wakka said shaking his fist. "If we go down you go too buddy."
"I am confident in your victory." Rin told us in his accented voice.
"Well guys let's get to it!" Rikku said in her usually cheerful voice.
"Somebody got happy." Wakka told her. She blushed a little. "Did your Al Bhed friend help you out?"
"Maybe. I'm not telling secrets." she said smiling brightly as the elevator took us up.
There it was. The wyrm creature. It had multiple horns and didn't look to happy to see us.
"Let's see what you're all about!" I said scanning it. "Evrae. Flying monster. Weakness is the eyes and spines. When inhaling its preparing to breath toxic fumes. Pull the ship away to avoid and counter with missiles."
"Rikku you read me?" Cid boomed over the loudspeaker. "Tell me when to move the ship. Give me a heads up beforehand."
Whenever I scanned it I could almost make out the vulnerable points on its body. I fired at it's face and it inflicted some damage but not too much. Everybody traded blows with it. Auron and Kimahri attacking, Wakka throwing a blitzball, Lulu with magic, and Tidus and Rikku healing and items.
"Go back farther away!" Tidus shouted as Cid acknowledged his order.
"Open wide!" I yelled firing again at his eyes. We pulled farther away from it and a series of missiles fired from the ship and struck Evrae dead on dealing massive damage to him. Then it began to glow.
"Is it supposed to do that?" I asked keeping my aim trained on it as best I could from this distance. Then it launched a series of lights at us striking us, this hurt a bit but I decided to drink the Potion I was given and part of my wound was gone.
"Shinn, how are you hanging?" Tidus asked me.
"Fine, yourself?"
"I'm surviving. I think you have your overdrive." he told me.
"What's that?"
"An Overdrive is a special attack that is unique to each person and can be used once. It happens for different circumstances." Rikku explained further.
"Ok I gotcha." I acknowledged as Evrae moved back close to us. I focused and my skill came to me.
I took the Potion and Antidote from my pockets and combined them together and they formed into a magazine for my pistols. I loaded both in.
"One Shinn approved dose of pain coming right up!" I said aiming and firing rapidly at Evrae until all 30 bullets were depleted. It was something I called "Bane Shot" and it managed to inflict quite a bit of damage to the opponent.
"That was cool." Tidus shouted dodging a blow from Evrae. Soon Auron knocked him down with his move called Shooting Star. Evrae fell from the sky moaning in agony from the injuries inflicted on it.
"I see Bevelle!" Lulu yelled to us. A large red and white city was ahead below.
"What do you call that move, eh?" Wakka questioned.
"I call it Mix Shot." I told him happy about my new little skill.
"Kinda like my Overdrive but his is more attacking than just plain randomness." Rikku joked as we felt the ship decend. "Hang on guys!"
I hung onto whatever I could grab as the ship went down and was immeadiately fired upon. We all prepared to slide down ropes the ship deployed to the ground but as I went to join everyone my legs was caught on one of the ropes and I was left dangling as my friends were in Bevelle alone.
"Shinn!" I heard Rikku yell as she touched the ground safely.
"Rikku! Protect YUNA!" I yelled increasing the volume of my voice as the airship pulled away. I was left behind.
The ship flew over this big grassland and was at low enough altitude. Then the rope loosened on my leg and I dropped to the ground with a thud. "Ow"
I stood and the ship pulled around to another area to be repaired. Dusting myself off and checking for injury I appeared to be fine.
"Looks like I made it, but I need to get to Bevelle to help the guys out." i said gazing in the direction of Bevelle, but seeing guys dressed in white and red appear holding these rifles and they began to chase after me. Luckily I was near a Rin Travel Agency and they were all the way over some ridge so I had a headstart, until these yellow bird they rode caught up to me.
"Guess I'll have to fight." I said turning around and aiming carefully shooting the men atop the birds killing them with only a few bullets. Taking one of the birds I managed to ride it successfully to escape the army that was coming after me.
We rode through most of this gigantic field and exchanging gunfire with each other. Once all the mounted troops were dead these strange gliders flew overhead. "What in the world?" I mumbled. They had two white troops and a red one in the center on the back looking out.
After killing the white ones with ease the red one shot a stream of flames at me burning me up a little bit. These guys must be from Bevelle, just from a hunch that they wanted me dead. Eventually only one glider remained and after killing the white troops it flew threw this canyon and right into this big hulking beast who swatted it from the sky like a nuisance.
I was thrust from the bird I rode and fell to the ground as it retreated. A Guado emerged from behind the giant rock creature.
"Maester Seymour summons you to Bevelle. Come!" he told me.
"I don't want to talk to HIM"
"I warn you. He doesn't need you alive." the Guado said turning his back to.
"I don't need you alive either." I said pulling the trigger shooting him in the back of the head killing him. That only seemed to enrage the rock monster behind him. "Oh crap." I said looking at the headless being and Scanning it.
"Defender X. Machina Weapon. Strong armor protects from most physical attacks and has high Strength. No actual weaknesses." I recited to myself.
It stood and I began to fire at its chest which barely did any damage at all. Then it was about to punch me with its right arm. I quickly fired both pistols frantically at it and after multiple shots its attack stopped.
"How do I have this much ammo?" I said to myself, surprised that I asked this question now after using these weapons for so long. I kept up the pace firing and barely dodging the attacks it threw out.
Then it pointing its arm at me and it fired like a cannon striking me and sending me to the ground. "This thing packs one mean wallop." I groaned standing up ready to fight again.
"I have my Overdrive but I can't Mix anything if I only have one Potion." I said to myself firing. I'd have to do it the hard way.
The battle seemed to wage for the remainder of the night and into the morning. Neither of us giving in. This Defender X being a machine made it tireless, while I was really exhausted. It's vitality was dropping and nearing death from the Scan I always got from it.
Into the morning we still fought as I fell to one knee seeing it about to smash me into the earth with one last punch. Aiming upwards at its chest I gave it everything I could muster and fired like hell.
It still came after I stopped. My fingers were so tired I just dropped my weapons and was ready to face death. "Hopefully Yuna will pass by and send me to that Farplane." I said looking up as the beast began to crumble to peices.
It's arms fell off and then collapsed to the ground in a defeated heap. I did it. I beat the strongest monster yet all on my own. Then I thought I heard a voice behind me.
"Shinn!"
I turned and Yuna and her guardians were there watching me.
Rikku and everybody else ran up to me and started to ask a bunch of questions.
"What happened to you? How'd you get here?" Lulu asked before everybody else.
"The airship landed around here and I fell off, these guys in white and red came after me then I ran into that thing." I said pointing to Defender X's broken body. "And now I'm here with you."
"You look terrible, ya? Didn't you get any sleep?" Wakka asked me.
"I was here fighting that thing since yesterday afternoon. I couldn't sleep." I said. I did feel rather horrible now that he mentioned it. As if one que I just fell backwards into a state of sleep. I needed it anyway after such a mighty battle. All I remember after that was being picked up by somebody and carried somewhere to rest.
Like this chapter? I hope so. Bet you're wondering where they go from here.
