Note: Well, since I was gone for a while, I'll give you guys a recap for those slow on the intake; '_' is a character's thoughts, "_" is a character's dialogue, ::_:: is a character(s) action, in a ( _ ) is the author's notes (me, if, again, you're a little slow), and finally, this story will be in Vivi Orunitia's POV. But before I start, I got my inspiration thanks to Jerails Prower, best friend 'til the end, Vivi jr., always there for whoever, and Momo, will always correct a no-no.
Act V
"Down the Whirlpool..."

Treno...
"Ugh, I'm getting tired of waiting. How did you even know that Ghost will be here anyway?", Zidane asked.
"I'm a black waltz. I can see things you can't; we're brothers...", Needle said, and I couldn't possibly imagine going against Ghost again after what happened last time. The fog began to gather as Ghost slowly appeared over the lake, shrouded in a blue flare.
"I'm so happy you waited...", he said as his voice echoed in eerie tones, as if his existence was denied by familiars. "Alas, master has other plans for you, O bastard brother of mine. Your death will be my freedom, as with yours, No. 5..."
"Other plans?! Oh, I see, your just CHICKEN! Come down and fight me!", Eiko yelled at Ghost, whose glare seemed to quiet her. I look to Yuki, who is slouching in terror. I just want to comfort her, but the feeling of death around her is overcoming. What am I to do? I've never been like this before!
"Ahahaha...I just hope master goes easy on you, as I still want to mutilate your screaming bodies...until next time, I leave you with a little present...hahahaha...", Ghost said to us. His mere voice sent chills down my spine...he then disappeared into his flame, which split into many, shooting at us. One hit Needle, who braced himself, and merely slid back, blast seeping through his fused chest-plate. I could see rage within him building. I thought It was just a saying that your eyes flare in anger, but his eyes were literally flaming red...'

Black Mage Village...
'It was cold and raining outside. Mr. 288 is a genius. He was able to invent a magic blue fire lamp, which warmed us when cold, and cooled us when hot. It was powered by the elements.
'Needle asked if Mr. 288 could have someone remodel him a new chest- plate, and was off somewhere. Dagger was sleeping, with Steiner guarding her. Poor Steiner; he has sleepies under his eyes.
"So, what do you suppose Kuja has in plan for us? I, myself, can't imagine...", Zidane said. I was completely lost. I wasn't sleepy at all. I just felt sorry for Yuki. Even after the last encounter with ghost, she was still scared. I can't blame her. Kuja did take her wings...
Needle came back from the metal-smith in the bridge city. I forgot what it was called. His chest-plate was amazing. It seemed enchanted; it had a dragon on it, which seemed to stir constantly.
"I overheard you outside the door. Not even I know what Kuja has in plan.", Yuki suddenly seemed to brighten up, looking at Needle. She really loves him...
"Well, maybe he's going to remake, or retake his black mage army?", Zidane asked. Eiko and Freya fell asleep one the spot, Amarant was outside, and Quina was preparing something. The magical flame suddenly went out as Mr. 288 walked away at an unwanted memory. "What? Oh! Sorry! I'm sorry Mr. 288!", Zidane said, chasing after him. Zidane is so caring.
"I couldn't help nut overhear your conversation...", Dagger said, obviously awakened by the thunder outside.
"Hmm...knowing Kuja, he'll most likely take out the one who is the biggest threat to him right now...", Needle said, Yuki now sleeping, head on his lap. When he said that, we looked to Dagger, who nodded in acknowledgment. "Wrong, it's me...", Yuki then stirred, obviously faking her sleep now. "I obtain the most power amongst us, and he knows that even with half my strength, I prove a formidable opponent. Kuja has outdone himself with me..."
'Dagger then said, "...well, Kuja will know it's convenient that he can rid of me and Needle at the same time...", I knew where this was going. "Fine, then it's decided. We will use Needle as bait at Alexandria. It's dangerous, and it's a do or die situation..."
"We need two mages that know either medium or high level petrify spells...", Yuki then sat up quickly, hitting her head on Needle's mask.
"Ow...", the atmosphere seemed to lighten at that. "I'll go with you, bro! With a float spell, I can still fly a little! We'll go through this together!", she said.
"Wha-?", I said.
"Come-on, Needle! I can go!"
"...fine. Now Ghost can't resist...", I was surprised. Needle, Yuki's big brother, of all people, should know that it's too dangerous for her. I suddenly said it. I didn't intend to, but the flood of emotions I was experiencing was overwhelming.
"N-no! You can't!", I said, standing up. "It's too dangerous! Needle! You, of all people, should know!"
"I trust in your judgement, young one, but you need to trust me for now-..."
"No! I won't let you! Yuki! You can't do thi-..."
"Vivi! Stop! You're being immature!", Dagger suddenly said. I was dumbfounded. "I know how you feel; knowing that you could lose someone precious to you, and knowing that you can't do anything about it, but unless you believe, they won't get hurt! Zidane taught me that..."
"Please, Vivi, you need to trust me on this one...this last time. I don't care if you never do again, but you need to trust me...", Needle said. Yuki was just looking at me, frowning. I just stormed out to the chocobo shack...'
\\*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*- *_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*_*-*//
'I don't' know, but the warth of the chocobo shack seems to comfort me. Yuki came in and then sat next to me.
"Vivi, I decided not to lure Ghost with my likes..."
"...I'm sorry about how I acted in there...", I really was embarassed.
"You know, Dagger is right...", all of a sudden, the egg began to hatch. We just sat there, watching the egg hatch, soft 'kwehs' filling the air. When the egg opened, a golden chicobo appeared.
"I thought golden chocobos could only be trained?", I said.
"I doesn't matter. It's still the most beautiful thing I've seen...", she then leaned her head on my shoulder, the chicobo still chirping it's innocent kwehs.
Dagger was right...I believed...

I know this was a short act, but it's because the finale will be very long. Anyway, thanks for reading so far. Csaio, Nakuta Chan...
P.S.:"E-Mail me at Pocky_Rei@yahoo.com if you want to review my story, or MST it (I'm dreaming...). Well, it doesn't matter, anyway. Most likely, someone already is using my story to MST, or is copying it, claiming it to be their work. Let me assure you, the is the original!"
