Chapter 1: The Story Begins

The waves slowly came down upon the sands of Besaid Beach, the only signs of life being the gulls and two bodies bundled up near the dunes. One being a beautiful eighteen year old ex-summoner, the other a dream come true, in all sense of the phrase. The sun finally began to set over this peaceful shore and loving embrace.

"Did I ever tell you how much I love you?" The blonde man exclaimed.

"All the time." The brunette, mockingly annoyed, said.

The man put a look of mock upset across his face. This was soon put to rest by the comment that followed.

"And I never get tired of it."

They laid there for a few more minutes until the stars lit up the sky. The man then broke the silence.

"Its late we should be getting back."

"Do we have to? Can't we just stay here and enjoy this night together."

"But what if fiends decide to chow down on us tonight."

"Then my 'Big Strong Guardian' will deal with them." She aid as she put her hand to his chest.

He was loving every minute of this, but he knew it would not last as he saw the bushes ruffling in the distance and suspicions were confirmed when a Lupine pounced from the bushes and came charging at them. His initial reaction of drawing his sword didn't even have time to come into play as a load noise rung in his ears and all that was left was a swarm of pyreflies making they're way to the Farplane and a very smug looking gunner at his side.

The revolver was cleared of smoke and holstered, the man's eyes bulging at the site they were met with, still not even having enough time to take it all in.

"You have changed." He whispered. His only response was a muffled giggle.

Slowly the stars began to fade as the both fell into a deep slumber both they're bodies in tight embrace.

Somewhere over Bikanel Desert.:

".......Oh......"

"......Crap....." Then silence until.

The air was filled with the roaring explosions from the port side of the Celsius that send to bodies hurdling across its deck and smacking into the exit onto the deck, one, lying on the stairs and the other sprawled out on the elevator. Then the air was filled with a more terrifying, annoying and down right pissed off voice.

"ZRYD DRA RAGG FYC DRYD BROTHER?" (What the hell was that Brother?) exclaimed the blonde youth crawling up the steps followed closely by her semi-blind companion.

"Y meddma fynhehk fuimt ryja paah knaydmo ybbnaleydat." (A little warning would have been greatly appreciated.) Said the man.

"Ed ryt hudrehk du tu fedr sa, ed fyc ymm Shinra'c vyimd." (It had nothing to do with me; it was all Shinra's fault.) Came the voice over the comm.

"SHINRA." They both shouted in unison.

"E's zicd y get." (I'm just a kid.) Came the timid voice slightly laced with worry, they weren't falling for that excuse this time as they made their way to the elevator making sure every step came with force upon the hull of the airship and muttering to themselves different means of torturing a certain 'kid'.

But before they could get any further a terrified voice shouted through the comm.

"PNYLA OUINCAMJAC." (Brace yourselves.) The pilot yelled as his main duty was overlooked due to all the commotion the Celsius came crashing into a sand dune covered in wreckage of what was once the proud 'Home' of The Al Bhed.

The two on the hull had only a split second before they were sent flying through the air once again, due to the force of the impact. Debris from both ship and structure were scattered through out the air mixed with a great torrent of sand. As the sand finally began to settle the girl's eyes opened only to see a familiar statue of a seagull next to her, before she collapsed into the sand.

The Calm Lands (Gorge Bottom):

Away from the bustle of the new Calm Lands, (once living up to its name, but now a haven for those with enough Gil to hand and those looking for a good time.) great sounds of weapons clashing were sent through the gorge as a battle lasting nearly five hours was finally drawing to its conclusion.

".....You've.....got....huh...better." Proclaimed the sword wielding female, barely able to string a sentence together, but still able to bring her blade down upon her opponent once again only to have it blocked by the man's staff.

"As....have you." He barely whispered. Followed by his staff sweep at the woman's feet bringing her down to the ground with a loud 'thud'.

"You let your guard down with wasting time on speech." Was all he said as he brought his staff to her throat. This in tern leading to the woman's legs rapping around his and with great force brought him to the ground, and with lightning quick reflexes she was able to fling herself upright grab her sword and place it to his throat as he began to rise.

"As did you." She said as her foot to his shoulder sent him back into the ground.

"Hmm." Was all he said as she gave him her hand, the man excepting without reluctance.

"Good match." She said.

"Very." His response, once again barely a whisper.

As they dusted themselves of in the quite depths of the gorge a chill ran down both their spines as they're attentions were drawn to the opening to the Cavern Of The Stolen Fayth, the once secret holding of the Fayth of the Aeon Yojimbo.

"What is that." Said the woman as she turned to face the cave.

"I don't know." He said as he began towards the entrance only be stopped by the hand of his comrade.

"What do you think you're doing?"

"Going to find out what it is."

"What, what is."

"That's what I'm going to find out."

"Huh." Was all she said.

He made his way closer to the cave when a single pyrefly appeared in the depths, soon joined by many more.

The mans eyes flared as he shouted "NO." and quickly drew his concealed handgun and yelled "DRILL SHOT." Only to hit nothing but air as the pyreflies sped towards him, hitting with such force to send his gun flying from his hand and fling him across the gorge into the wall, and finally falling to the ground.

Not even bothering to comprehend what was going on the woman took her stance and charged at the pyreflies swinging franticly but hitting only air, and soon being struck with the same force sending her into the body of her partner.

All was silent as the pyreflies retreated into the cave.

TBC.

OH MY GOD finally, anyway a little R and R will be greatly appreciated, I welcome all constructive criticism and ideas in which way to take the story...........oh and flames will just bounce right off...until next time kiddies.
