Nope, don't own final fantasy...

Noble, Sabrina, Emet, and Silac wandered into Giza Plains. Silac sat down on a rock, saying that he wasn't in the best shape of his life. Emet filled a few goblets with water via the stream, and handed them to his clansmen. Sabrina sat in a tree, eyes closed, meditating. And Noble... Well, he went to sleep...

"Thank you very much for the water my fine friend." Silac smiled as Emet handed him a goblet.

"Leasst I can do." Emet assured Silac. "Want to play ssome Triple Triad??" Emet asked, taking out a deck of cards.

"Hot damn, so you did bring them!" Silac laughed. "Draw your hand!"

Silac drew a Bomb, a Couerl, and a Gigas. Emet had not been so fortunate, drawing an Ahriman, Bomb, and Antlion.

"Sshitss..." Emet murmured

But, before the game got under way, clan Dip entered the encampment. They were made up of a Soldier, an Animist, a human Thief, and a White monk. Sabrina jumped down from the tree and drew her Masamune. Silac drew his Heretic Rod, and Emet unsheathed his Bangaa Spike.

After a good sleep, Noble awoke.

"We've been waiting for nearly five minutesss!" Emet growled.

"Eh heh... Sorry." ^_^'

"Can we engage already!?!" The Judge had grown veeeery pissed.

".... Yes..." Noble murmered.

ENGAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And so it went. Noble would fight the Animist, Sabrina would take care of the Thief, Emet would handle the Soldier, and Silac would duel with the Monk.

The Monk casted Holy, which Silac easily reflected. "That was pathetic.." Silac murmured. "Sshutss up!!" The Monk said, as it launched a series of earth renders. Silac shielded himself for impact, and flew back 50 feet. Then Silac's hat got torn...

"You little %$^&*%$@#$%^*&*^%$##!!!!" He yelled

"I never knew Nu's could sswear like thatss..." Emet said in astonishment

"Now pay!" Silac yelled as he casted frog shape on the Monk. Silac's adversary had been turned into a weak little toad, so Silac finished it with Meteor. "That was fun." Yelled Silac.

Emet's fight with the soldier was going badly. The foe kept using speed break, and ran circles around Emet, taking stabs at him every few seconds. There was no possible way for Eemt to keep up with his adversary. His foe was but a blur, moving back and forth. Emet decided to put this fool in his place, and unleashed a tremor attack, sending his foe 40 feet, into a tree, knocking him unconscious.

Sabrina was having a speed contest with her thieving foe. Both combatants ran up the side of a tree, and jumped off the side, dueling in midair. Then Sabrina did a kick flip, hitting her enemy straight in the face. But, it was far from over... While in midair, the thief grabbed Sabrina's heel, and swung her into the ground. Sabrina got up, and dodged the knife slashes her foe threw at her.

"You can't dodge for all day!" her foe taunted.

"Don't need to." Sabrina said. She had been forced into a tight spot. Sabrina side-stepped, and her foe fell straight into the river. Sabrina held her Katana near the thief's throat and said "Looks like I win."

"Stupid animal controller freak..." Noble said, as he was pelted with a 15th Chocobo rush.

"This is fun kupo!" His foe insisted, sending a sheep count attack Noble's way.

"I've had enough of your stupid, squeaky, annoying, high-pitched, Moogle voice for one day!" Noble yelled, unleashing a night hawk attack. The dark falcon swooped down, hit one of the Animists' vital points, and knocked him out.

"Well, what do we win?" Noble asked the Judge.

"4000 gil, and a Save the Queen sword!" the Judge responded

"A holy blade? Marche may like that." Silac pondered

"Well, can we go now?" Sabrina asked. "I'm tired." She laughed

"You can't go until I'm done with you." Said a dark voice. "Thank you Clan Dip, you served me well." The voice unleashed a far fist, and sent the heap of defeated combatants into the yonder sky. "Now that Clan Nutsy is tired, I can easily defeat Marc- hey where is you're leader!?"

"He didn't want to come." Said Noble. "But, we'll be glad to bring you down."

"Noble don't." Sabrina said. "That's Gukko, leader of Clan Borzoi."

"Clan Newb Borzoi, I presume?" Noble said bowing, making his fellow clansmen and wemon laugh hysterically. "I'm not worthy of the all powerful nubby leader!" Noble yelled.

"You can't beat me. You know it." The voice said. It came out, revealing the silhouette of a fighter.

"Very well. Clan Leader Gukko vs. Clan Substitute Noble." The Judge yawned

"Clan SUBSTITUTE?" Gukko screamed with laughter. "What a joke!"

"You know, that laugh is getting reeeeal annoying." Noble said, yawning, and scratching his ear with his hind leg. "I don't have time for a yapansy like yourself, so hurry up and die already okay? You might as well say just do what you want with me Noble." Noble said laughing

"Ego contesst, I presume?" Emet asked

"No. Noble just wants to lower Gukko's confidence. He's not doing this out of enjoyment." Silac responded

"Oh no! I forgot about the laws!" ;-; the Judge blurted

"Wish we knew that before..." -.-' Sabrina said

"Laws are uhh... No using any antilaw cards!"

"Brrriiiilllliiiiannnt..." -.-' Silac remarked

"I'm gonna make you wish you were never born!" Gukko yelled

"Yeah well... At least I don't pick lice out of my hair!" Noble yelled back.

ENGAGE ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Noble took a fighter's stance, with his spear in hand. Gukko took out his sword, and unleashed far fist. The force hit Noble, sending him back, almost hitting a tree, but Noble sprung off the branches, at full force toward Gukko.

Gukko used his Beatdown technique, and hit Noble straight in the face, causing some severe bleeding to occur. Noble got back up, and thought about a neat trick. He would have to get Gukko to use magic.

So Noble leapt into a tree top, and sprinted along the top of the tree. Gukko launched a fury of Air renders, which Noble dodged with no problem. But, Noble's running room came to an end, and was forced to use the same tactics on the ground.

Finally, Gukko launched a Far fist, and Noble leaped into the air. This was his chance.

"MATRA MAGIC!!!!" Noble yelled. This attack switched a foe's magic and health power, and as fighters have a low magic, Gukko became crippled. Noble finally used the weak, yet accurate blitz, and Gukko did backdraft. The two hit each other simultaneously, knocking each other out.

"I will count to ten. The first to stand up will be the winner." The Judge declared

1..... "You can't fail Noble... Not after that." Emet thought

2..... "Get up you lazy good for nothing!" Sabrina yelled

3..... "You fought bravely Noble. You were so close.." Silac thought

4.... "Am I really going to lose to a Borzoi...?" Noble couldn't get up. His legs were broken, and his arms were bent.

5.... "This isn't over...." Gukko remarked.

6.... "I..." Noble slowly got up, using his staff as a support.

7.... "I can not lose!" Gukko did the same with his sword.

8.... "Have..." Noble was completing his sentence, trying to stand up. Battered and bruised, Noble gave up hope.

9..... "Get up Noble! We believe in you!" Sabrina said, and watched Gukko rise.

10.... "Failed...." Noble completed his message, and dropped unconscious. Gukko was victorious.

"THE WINNER IS GUKKO!" the Judge yelled.

"I can't believe he had such power... And for a substitute. I'm, never going near you freaks again!" Gukko said, and limped off...

"Noble!" Sabrina ran over to her fallen comrade. He was soaked in his own blood, unmoving. Silac hurried over and casted a raise spell, but it would take weeks for Noble to recover from this.

"I'm sorry..." Noble murmured, cringing. Even talking bestowed a great pain upon him. "I don't deserve to be in such a clan..." he said as he lapped up some blood.

"Sshuttsss up!" Emet slurred. Everyone turned around. They were surprised to see Emet say something. "You fought well. But if you're just going to drown in your own pity than you can quit for all I caress!"

Noble smiled. "Thank you Emet..." and he fell into a deep state of unconsciousness.

"You'll pay Gukko, you'll pay...." Emet said, staring hatefully into the sun set.
