Disclaimer: Do I have to repeat myself?
AN: The first chapter in which Kidd and Serge start out on their different quests. Figure out who the 'Ghost' is. It's a CC Character!
dead-Ikiri:Oh... Ah... So Dario doesn't want others to get involved or something?
Nasuren: Mean that sleep? Read on. He fell into that sleep for this chapter.
"Uhh!" Kidd grunted as she turned her head fiercely around. 'She's been doing this ever since she went asleep' Lucca thought as she turned around, trying to get some sleep. 'Can't take this!' She got out of the bed in her night clothes, waddling over to the sleeping girl. She started shaking the girl
"Kidd, wake up so I can get some sleep...Kidd? Bah! Figures that she would be sleeping like a log! Gonna be a rough day tomorrow...."
The sleepy inventor walked back to her bed...
A elevator rose up. The other two occupants rushed out as soon as the door opened. It seemed like he was looking through someone else's eyes, and everyone's face were...blank?
"Serge what's wrong? We can't turn back now!" the teal haired man spoke
"Oi! Will ya two hurry up! Lynx, yer day of reckonin' has come! I'll kick yer arse so hard yer kiss da moons. hahahahaHAHAHAHA!" she turned to me. "Oi, yer alright mate?"
"Yeah, fine." came out of my mouth.'No, I'm in another person!' I yelled.
"Let's go then! Say yer prayers, Lynx! Not that it'll do you any good!" We shot down the hallway.
'Oi! What's with dis place?' I yelled as we shot past two robots. Everything seem to be automatic. Suddenly a bat shot toward me, and before I knew it, a silver dagger shot out and sliced it in two. Whoever this was, she sure is fast. Before I noticed I was standing on some strange platform. Light shot around us and suddenly we were thrown up wards.
"Did it feel like your body passed through the floor just now?" The strange man spoke.
"Bugger! Are we high up!" 'Just don't fall, or I'll kick yer...'
"Kid, let's go!" The man she called Serge voice rang out. She nodded and the three if them walked towards the heavy set doors at the end of the walkway. Serge and Kid(?) stood in front of the heavy doors. But sudden the doors opened inward and a great wind hit them from behind, they were sucked into darkness....
A Voice rang out in the darkness...
'Remember as much if this as possible. It may help you on your journey. Never let your hopes downs, let it be your light in the darkness..'
Unknown to either listener that there were two people watching the dream. When they awoke, they would remember only fragments, let alone the names.
Serge awoke with a start, hitting his head on the Doctor's, who was checking his eyes with a flashlight. He didn't remember much of the dream, but he remembered Dario and his advice.
"Serge! My what a thick head you have!" Greer pointed to the Doctor, who was still rubbing his head. Serge didn't feel the contact at all, which showed on his face that caused most watching him to laugh.
'Norris must have set up a guard while I was out.' Serge wasn't laughing like the others.
"The sword's at the fort." Everyone went silent.
"The haunted ruins?" A nearby sailor asked.
Meanwhile at Termina...
Lucca, Kidd, and Glenn got on the boat that was for their trip.
"Everyone ready?" He asked. Not long after that they were sailing towards the ruins.
"It's not only some ruins. It's Fort Dragonia, a fort unmatched even today." Glenn explained to them as he set the sails. Growing up in a port town taught him a few things about sailing. "In it lies ancient secrets and technology, some that even surpasses todays standards. However some of the ruins hides things that could hurt many people. So that's why Luccia got called away. Actually she was plaining to take you there because that part is needed there."
"Oi, if ya know so much, why didn't ya become a guide?"
"I've come from a long line of Dragoons. I always wanted to be one."
"One question, are we there yet?" Lucca asked...
"Are you sure we can trust him?" Norris asked. Serge told him most of what happened, except the part of his 'Enemy'.
"We got nothing else, sir." I answered.
"Rumor has it no one has ever made it to the top because of the ghost. Supposedly a lad fell in love with a lass, but somehow he forgot about her. He lived a good life, got married and had kids, but when he died, he was split into two. One was the man he became, the other is the lad who fell in love with that lass, still looking for her." Fargo ended this story like one would do a tragic play.
"So we got two ghosts?' Greer asked. Ghosts wasn't rare, heck there was an island filled with them near them.
"Nay, the first one passed on after he died. But the second remains. As long as he is there, the keep will be locked....."
