1 Chapter 33
1.1 Void
Eve awoke to the hot blistering air, which seemed to smother her. She sat up maladroitly and looked around, waiting for her azure eyes to adjust to the bleakness. After several moments she truly looked around. She sat in the middle of a vast grand desert, yet the earth beneath her was hard as granite. She remembered confronting the evil woman, but where she was now, was disturbing. The atmosphere was still and not a whisper of a cool breeze stirred its design. The sun was high above, smack-dab in the middle, while as far as her eyes could see was a flat infinite landscape. Eve cursed in the name of Hyne and got up, because if she didn't start walking she would die of thirst or starvation.
Four hours later Eve fell upon the gravel and cursed her thousandth time. She looked back up at the sun and noticed that it hadn't moved at all… Why isn't the sun setting? It's so hot and I am so tired! Eve's conscience snapped her out of her complaints.
: Get a hold of yourself! You will not die where your father almost lost his life! :
: What? :
: Your father battled Ultimecia and when time compression was broken, it created a void that your father fell into. If it weren't for your mother, you wouldn't be here alive today. This place is timeless, but there is only one way out of here. :
: How do you know all this? : Eve asked herself.
: That I shall reveal in due time…now get up and start moving northward. : Her voice commanded.
It was another few hours later when Eve collapsed from thirst. This time her shady conscience did not speak to her and she fell asleep.

Blade dreamt of a field full of wild flowers and the sun high above him, skies of blue cobalt. Everything looked beautiful, but there was a crack in this marvelous painting, a missing piece. He turned around to see a woman standing with her back to him. She wore a dress of burgundy wine and her silvery hair played fairly with the wind that entwined its lithe –like fingers around the strands. Beneath her fluff was a pair of black wings…
"How did you come here?" she asked without looking at him.
"This is my dream." He answered. The woman turned around to face the young man.
"I am weary and tired, trapped in a void of no time, I dream now too."
"What is your name?" Blade inquired.
"My name was once Ultimecia, now Eve Leonhart." Eve answered.
"The runaway daughter of the Hero? Squall?"
"Yes."
"Why are you trapped?"
"I am a shade of my past life, and I am bound to be reborn with Eve, for she is me and I am her."
Blade feeling a bit confused thought it over, before speaking again, "So Eve Leonhart is actually the reincarnation of Ultimecia? That's impossible!"
"Tis true young Knight, and I know what you seek."
"I'm not a knight! I'm a SeeD!" Blade quipped.
"I'm dearly sorry, my personality still clings to me. That is until Eve accepts me as who she once was and the new person she is now."
"O.K. let me get something straight: Rinoa inherited Edea's, Adel's, and Ultimecia's powers…so Rinoa is your Great zillionth mother? Am I correct?" blade asked. He seemed to be fitting the puzzle together. The shade nodded and forced her violet hues away from his.
"Does the Leonhart line still grow on in the future?"
"It does, I used to have four brothers and two sisters. I killed off my sisters, so I could inherit their powers, and then I killed my three other brothers that also held power, though dormant."
"What?! What kind of sick maniac are you?" Blade yelled out, his echoes vibrating infinitely across the plains. "What about the other brother?"
"Ahh, Luna survived. He held no powers that I could sense." She answered, "My time is short and I must leave this haven."
"Wait!" Blade cried out, "Will I ever see this Leonhart girl? Will I ever meet her?"
"You already have." Then the ex-sorceress vanished leaving Blade to travel within his own dreams.
* * *
Eve awoke from her speechless dream and wondered if Blade was truly there. She was there along side a strange shadowed figure that spoke to him, the irritating thing was, that she couldn't here their voices.
The sun had blistered her exposing skin and she swore that she looked like an over cooked lobster. She had lost a lot of energy and not even her junctioned magic worked. Nothing worked in a realm that stood still. She glanced around, knowing that all she would see was a tombstone with her name on it, waiting, just waiting for her. She stood up and began to trudge northward again.
Suddenly a white glimmer caught her sore eyes. Ahead was a cliff and she noticed that she was on a rockier ground… yet ahead she saw in the air a shimmering white that flashed every once in a while, and that flickered hope in her soul. Maybe this was her way out…
I'm sorry for leaving you readers stranded like that! ^^ I didn't have writers block or a lack of ideas; I said that I had several plots and this was just one of the many. Please review and tell me what you think of the story so far? *Puppy eyes*
