You guys didn't give me reviews... tsk tsk. I will destroy stuff in this chapter. My anger will be vented! Ok I actually planned this already out. But if I do write impulsively, important people die. Review, ok?

----------------------------------------------

Soala sat in his hotel room in Luca, not knowing what path his life was taking with this dangerous next step. Or indeed, it was not his life, but that of this very planet.
-----------------------------------------------
He needed to be precise...one year of planning would be wasted otherwise. Day and night the power of the Cigam was burning within him, wanting to be used. And the miserable civilization that exists on this planet would deal with the consequences of rejection and forgetting of the Omega Mages, those who slaved for a thousand years to defeat Sin for them. They will know our true power, Soala thought.
--------------------------------
On the Celsius, the Gullwings still did not quite understand why Paine had brought a verbally abusive, potentially psychotic man on their airship. Paine called Baralai in advance and explained the situation to him. He agreed to humor Paine's father while the Gullwings manages to arrive at the airship and leave Luca. Shinra had already used him as an unwitting guinea pig for a tracking device, like a small sphere in his arm. They would know how to avoid him when he began looking for them.

"Once he realizes we're gone, he will hunt us down and probably take down the airship." Paine remarked. She was very gloomy.

"Um, Paine I don't think he could destroy an airship from the ground." Yuna thought Paine might be a little too tense.

"Actually," said Shinra, "After she left home her father joined the Al Bhed and became one of them. His main interest was weapons and it is likely he could take down the ship."

"Told you Yuna. He's not someone to fool around with."

"Thanks for raising the mood Shinra!" Rikku snapped.

"I'm just a kid." He replied and immediately left.

"Well, Luca's always good for a party. We'll have fun while we're there." Yuna was trying to bring up the mood, not state facts like Shinra always did.

"Yddahdeur! Gullwings, asankahlo!" Brother's voice blared over the intercom. (Attention! Gullwings, emergency!)

"What's going on?" Yuna spoke fast in emergencies.

"There's smoke in the engines!" Buddy was yelling.

"Are we on fire?"

"No it's...Luca."

"What about it?"

"It's burning Yuna. It's burning."

-------------------------------

Soala stood looking at the destruction around him. His powers were truly marvelous, and he had just proved it. Luca, a powerful city, was in flames. Soon he would make a statement announcing war on Spira and bingo, all opposition would be instantly decimated. Just a few more hours while Luca burns.

-------------------------------------

Can the Gullwings save Luca? Of course not idiots everything's on fire. LOL. But a bigger question: What exactly is Soala thinking? How will Tidus and Paine's father interact on this new mission? What happens to Paine's father? Tune in next week!
