Part 2

The storm had subsided. As they walked the streets of Alexandria Rosa noticed there was indeed a lack of moogles around the town. They were normally everywhere. But not today. She knew an old woman who was a good friend of the moogles. She headed for the woman's house. Perhaps she would know something. They approached the house, and Rosa banged on the door. A woman answered it, but she was a lot younger than Mrs. Fijiba.

"Hello. Could we see Mrs Fijiba please?" The young woman stared at her.

"Mrs Fijiba is dead. She died a few days ago" Rosa immediately felt awkward. She hated feeling like that, believing it to be a sign of weakness

"Oh." she mumbled "I'm…er…sorry. We wont bother you any longer then" The young woman, who seemed close to tears, nodded and went back inside. Rosa turned and walked away. Tog ran to catch up to her.

"Kupo, you really put your foot in that one!"

"Shut it you"

"Pssst" Rosa turned sharply. There was a cloaked figure nearby. It approached Rosa and Tog. "I'd be careful if I were you. The moogles were the reason that woman died"

"What!" Rosa cried out, taken aback"

"You heard me. She died protecting 'em" the figure then turned on its heel and walked away, before Rosa had a chance to react
"KUPO!" she heard Tog shouting and glanced at him "you really are an idiot! Follow him! This is the perfect chance to find out what happened to my friends!" Rosa shook her head in surprise.

"Of course. Your right!" she turned, but the figure was nowhere to be seen. "Where did he go?"

"Kupo! You stood there looking stupid so long he could be anywhere by now"

Rosa felt incredibly stupid. She called herself a warrior, but she didn't even have the sense to follow a mysterious person who knew something about the moogles disappearance. A piece of paper fluttered down in front of them. Curious, Rosa picked it up.

The Church. 2 hours.

That was all it said. Rosa gazed at it.

"You think this is for us?"

"Who cares Kupo? Even if it isn't, we may find out something useful" Rosa nodded.

"We have a while. Let's chat to a few people about the disappearances."

The two of them headed off towards the town square. An ominous shadow watched them leave, and chuckled to itself.
