Disclaimer: trumpet fanfare Okay, let's run the bases. I don't own these characters, only Connie, and her family, and any friends of her or her family. This story is totally my creation, and anyone who steals any aspect of it will be hunted down with an attack kitten. Thank you to all of the people who review. You all rock my face off! By the way, apparently I've been spelling Aeris wrong, and no one thought to tell me. So, from here on in, it SHOULD be spelled right. I hope. I also learned something else. Someone asked a long time ago who Kurama was. Before then I didn't know, and I was still spelling his name wrong. I recently discovered he is a character from Yu Yu Hakusho (Heck, I'm not even sure if I spelled that right!). No, I did not know this before, so, from here on in Yu Yu Hakusho will be added in my disclaimer. If I did spell Hakusho wrong, SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME! Thank you! Also, please don't forget to check out my other story, if you have a sec called "Imaginary Friends". Okay, trumpet fanfare now to the story.

Because I couldn't drive, and neither could everyone 10 people that I have following me around we were walking the half mile to my grandmother's house. While I was hoping and praying that no one was going to see me, or them, or any of us. My grandmother was really cool. She plays video games, and watches TV. I don't think she ever grew up. But, she is the kind of person who would believe me, and not think I'm crazy, when I tell her that I have 10 characters from games following me around town. It doesn't take us too long to get there. Only about a minute and a half... or so. Truthfully, I have no idea how long it took, but you get the basic idea. I walk up to the gate in front of my Grandma's house. It's a wrought iron fence. Her mail box says "Grandma Jill" on it. My entire family calls her Jill. All of them except for me. I always call her Grandma Jill. She loves it. She and I spend a lot of time together. My sister used to, but then they lost interest in each other, and I filled the position.

I turn around to face the group of 10 and tell them, "Stay right where you are. Don't go anywhere." They all nod their heads and stand quietly. I walk in the fence and Sora jumps on me. Sora is my Grandma Jill's dog. He is a pure bread golden retriever. "Hi Sora!" I say. I then proceed to rub his face and head with my hands. He loves it when I do that. I finally stop and he shakes his head so hard it looks like it would hurt. It was my idea to name him Sora. At the time I was really into Kingdom Hearts. Then Kairi and Riku wonder around the side of the house. Kairi and Riku are her cats. They are both American Short-hairs. Kairi is more of a calico and Riku is a gray stripped cat. They are both really cute, and very soft. "Hi Kairi, hello Riku," I say talking to the cats.

"Hi!" says Rikku as she thrusts a hand into the air and waves. She was in the back, so she didn't know I was talking to the cat.

"No, Rikku, not you, the cat Riku. With one 'k'."

"Oh, OKAY!!!" Rikku had gotten her energy back. That was good. It was kinda scary to see her so sad.

I walk up the cement steps to my Grandma Jill's front door. I do a knock that I always do when I go to her house. I knock five times to the tune of "Shave and a Hair Cut," then ring the door bell which is the "Two bits." She opens the door and I say, "Hi Grandma Jill!"

"Connie!" My Grandma Jill is the coolest. She has a quaint little town house that is just big enough for her to live in and me to spend the night in. One bathroom, two bedrooms, one really big living room, and a kitchen/dining room. And then there is a basement underneath the entire house. This is where her TV and PS2 are. There is also a Futon, and a fold out couch. I've had many a slumber party down there. There is still room left over for washer and dryer in the corner, and sleeping bags wherever we want to try to put them. Okay, I guess it isn't really that small, but you would think it was teeny from the outside. The house is painted light yellow and light blue shutters, door, and window frames. The inside rooms are just random colors, with no white, black, or grey. Every room is done in a different color.

"How are you Grandma Jill? I love your shirt." It was a t-shirt that said 'Grandma: better known as PARTY ANIMAL!' She also wore blue jeans. My grandma has long grayish hair that goes half way down her back, and she usually wears it in a pony tail. She walks every day, so she's pretty skinny. She doesn't look very old, at least, I don't think so, but she does.

"I'm doing fine," she says. "Well, are you just going to stand there, or are you going to come in and help me beat Seymour for the 100th time? I swear, that man has come back from the dead more times than the years I've been alive. Which is a lot, may I remind you." See, I told you she plays video games. This is her second go around at Final Fantasy X. She's going to get the really big thick book for FFX-2 and beat the game and get the perfect ending. Currently she is waiting for Kingdom Hearts 2 to come out, which should be the December of 2004, we hope, because we were running out of games to play.

"Before we go in and beat Seymour, Grandma Jill, I want you to meet my friends." At the sound of the name Seymour Tidus started getting anxious. You could tell he was just itching to get a piece of him.

"You know, these friends of yours look awfully familiar. Have I met them before?" she asked. Obviously she wasn't putting 3 and 5 together and getting 8. I think she was getting 7, coming up just short.

"Well, you've seen them before, and you know their names, but I don't think you've met them," I said with a smile. Then came the introductions. They went much better this time. "Grandma Jill, this is Yuna," Yuna just waved and smiled. "Rikku," when I said Rikku she jumped up and down happily, "Paine," Paine nodded her head, "Lenne," Lenne did a small curtsey, "Aeris," Aeris held up a peace sign, "Baralai," he did a crusader salute, "Kurama," Kurama did a normal salute, "Mrs. A," she just smiled sweetly, "Calli," Calli, being in the front of the people, and dead set in front of Grandma Jill shook her hand, "and Tidus."

"Hi!" Tidus said.

"Oh, I recognize you all now. You're the characters from those games, aren't you?" They all shook their heads at once. "Well, it's good to meet you all. Come on in won't you? It will be nice to have some experts to consult when trying to beat the brains out of that Seymour."

"You mean, you don't think you're insane? Or, I'm insane? Or that they could just be kids in costumes?"

"No, I believe you. I believe it's really them. Why? Is it against all logic?" I started to talk, but she cut me off. "Life is illogical, and none of it makes any since. When life throws you punches you either got to take them, or fight back. Now, I'm gonna fight back. What are you gonna do?" She asked. I knew she already knew the answer.

"Thanks Grandma Jill."

"You're welcome, Connie. Now, lets all go inside, have some popcorn and beat this Seymour dude." We all rush in the door and head down to the basement.

"Seymour is toast!" Tidus shouted.

"Leave some for me!" cried Yuna.

"This will be fun!" yelled Rikku

"Who the heck is Seymour?" asked Paine

"Some old Master guy from a while ago." Replied Baralai

"I think I'm gone before he comes, right?" asked Lenne.

"I think so," replied Mrs. A.

"I think I remember him, the blue haired guy, right?" asked Calli.

"How should I know?" asked Aeris. "I'm in a different game."

Kurama was already inspecting the PS2. "Didn't we have one of these on the ship? These are fun!"

Grandma started making the popcorn and I got FFX started. Rikku got on her collar communicator. "Buddy, we have new position. Please send everyone else here."

"You got it!" replied Buddy over the speaker. Everyone picked a place on the floor as the game got started.
