Chapter X: The cosplayers

(Author's note: I didn't really know what the hell Cosplay was until I found out and it's kinda cool when I seen one of my friends do it)

(Fight Time)

Fira O

Zero O

Vale O

A giant cobra suddenly attacked us. I flipped backwards then rushed the cobra with 5 attack card attached to my keyblade I rammed it with the Keyblade. But the snake's skin was way to rough and it knocked me aside as if it didn't feel a thing.

Vale pulled out three fire cards and casted Firaga on the Cobra weakening it's shell alittle. The Zero jumped out and attached afew cards to his Shuriken and tossed them at the large snake. The Shuriken sliced a chunk out of the snake but it was still up.

I flipped down infront of it then hit him the remaining four times in the face while in mid air. The snake fell out.

(Normal mode)

We were on the ferret's deck.

" I'll go and see if the passengers are okay" Zero said disappearing.

" And I'll check the captain" Vale said running up to the captains bay.

" You guys make a real good team kupo" Mog said.

" Whatever" I said crossing my arms to my chest.

Vale came back with wide eyes.

" Sir Fira…the ferret was knocked off coarse from that huge water cobra" Vale said.

" Damn…" I said turning around to face the open sea. We were headed for a big fog cloud on the water.

" Everybody's fine especially the ladies" Zero said tucking some phone numbers into his scarf.

The ferret went into the fog and all of the passengers ran into the bottom of the boat where the power room was. Suddenly there was loud scream from deep in the fog.

"Did you hear that kupo?" Mog asked.

" Duh everyone and their grandmama's heard" Zero said." Infact it sounds like…"

The scream was sounded again.

" Like ladies!" Zero said diving off of the boat.

" Zero…get back here" I said running to the edge. " Idiot"

(Author's Note: Okay I gotta go because I'm busy so I'll leave the rest of this chapter to my sis Blizza Chan…Please be nice to her)

I flipped down into the water then swam after him Mog hovered over the water with me as I swam to catch up with Zero.

" I don't want to get my hair or my tux wet so you go on I'll guard the boat" Vale said. I swam on and got to what looked to be ruin.

(Author's Note: I don't remember the name of the temple but it was the one that Tidus first visited at the beginning of the game…Baaj Temple think it was called)

I swam for the temple an reached some ruins then climbed up on them. I couldn't see a thing but Mog's pong pong ball flying around my head. I jumped down and started to walk across old ruins. The scream sounded again this time catching me off guard I slipped and fell but caught myself I hung on with one hand onto the ledge. If I fell I would have fallen into the water pit where that huge underwater monster was that Tidus didn't finish off.

I pulled myself up and continued walking along the stone path. I came to an old door and kicked it open, on the inside was two girls about Utada's height. One dressed like Yuna FFX, had the hair and everything, and the other dressed like Paine she had the hair right and everything too. They were both screaming because Zero had a firm grip on their butts.

" Your gross" The Yuna cosplayer said punching Zero in the helmet. Zero backed up.

" Come on…it's just us here no need to act shy" Zero said.

I sort of laughed this guy reminded me so much of Avalon.

" SO!" The Paine cosplayer said backing up and pulling out her large sword. I walked over casually the two girls turned around and seem me. They're faces turned beat red upon seeing me. " OMG Millie this guy is too cute"

" I know isn't he Anna?" The Yuna cosplayer said they were close to eachother as if they were whispering but they spoke loud enough for the entire temple to hear.

" Hey have you forgotten about me ladies?" Zero said posing.

" Yea…completely forgot" Millie the Yuna cosplayer said running over to me.

" Uh so you're like here to sweep us off of our feet right?" Anna the Paine cosplayer said.

" Uh…sorta well we gotta get you two outta here it's way to danger…" Before I could finish my sentence a large golem machina fell from the sky. I grabbed Millie and rolled aside with her.

" OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH YOU SAVED MY LIFE!" She said blushing wildly. I picked her up and moved her aside.

" You guys get out of here theirs a door there go outside…Mog guide them" I said pulling out my Keyblade. " COME ON ZERO!"

" Don't have to tell me twice" Zero said as we both rushed the machina.

(Fight Time)

Fira O

Zero O

Vale (Unavailable)

I rushed the machine and used a card with my keyblade to knock off the giant machina's arm. The Zero took out it's legs with his giant Shuriken.

(Author's Note: Sorry I'm not as good with battles as he is…forgive me!)

We ran outside of the ruins where Millie and Anna were waiting. We walked over by the water the same path I took to get to the ruins.

" Uh…" Millie started with a red face.

"What is it" Zero asked.

" She can't swim" Anna said.

" Oh" I said rubbing my chin.

" Zero carry her let's go" I said.

" All right!" Zero said jumping up.

" No I'd rather…I'd rather you carry me" Millie said looking up at me with a red face smiling.

" Why me?" I asked.

" Because that Zero guy is a jerk and you've been really…nice to me" She said blushing.

" Uh…o-okay…" I said. 'I'm glad Utada isn't here or she'll be pissed'

" Uh climb on my back" I said bending down on one knee. She wrapped her arms around my neck then her legs around my waist.

" Okay I'm on" She said rushing her head on my back.

" Kay" I said standing up and looking at Zero then Anna. We all shook our heads then jumped in. We then took off swimming for the boat. Millie was abit heavy but I could carry her no problem. We got to the boat then Vale let down a ladder for us to climb up.

" You leave here then come back with two females?" Vale said walking back to the captains room. " Their beauty pales in comparison to my Kiako"

" Who was that guy?" Millie and Anna asked at the same time.

" That's Vale" I said standing up. " So uh you guys wanna tell us why you were in that temple?"

" To tell ya the truth we don't really know ourselves…We were on our way to a Final Fantasy Convention awhile ago then we ended up here" Millie said.

" What's a Final Fantasy Convention?" I asked.

" Yea what the heck is that?" Zero asked.

" Your dressed like Riku from Kingdom Hearts with a keyblade and your dressed like Mr.X from Metal Gear Solid those are really good cosplaying suits and your asking us what a convention is" Anna said.

Zero and I looked at eachother then back at them.

"Well yea" We both said at the same time.

" Uh you really don't know do you?" Millie said rubbing her chin while smiling at me.

" If it's anything like those Star Wars gatherings in the Stadium back at my home city then I don't wanna know" Zero said disappearing.

" Star Warz?" I said around.

" Fira you really are as dumb as a box of nails kupo" Mog said floating by.

" I don't get it" I said.

" You sound so naïve and that's cute" Anna said walking up to me with Millie too.

" I still don't know what a convention is" I said.

" A Final Fantasy Convention is when fans and cosplayers get together taking pictures, playing games doing all sorts of stuff" Millie said. "You'd fit in great there…You and Mr.Zero have some really good costumes"

" Yea… so can you explain to us where we are" Anna asked.

" Okay but you have to promise me you won't flip" I said turning around and walking towards the bow of the ship.

" Okay" The both of them said at the same time.

" You're in the Final Fantasy World" I said.

"WHAT!" Anna screamed.

" OH MY GOD" Anna said.

" OH MY GOD!" Millie said.

" OH MY GOD!" The both of them screamed at the same time.

" Yea…" I said. Gee was I this excited when I first came here?

" So your like a really powerful warrior right!" Anna said poking me in the chest.

" Uh well no" I said backing up as the both of them walked towards me. " I'm not a GREAT warrior"

" So like I'm really a summoner here?" Millie asked.

" Yea" I replied.

" And I'm really a swordsman here?" Anna asked.

" Uh right" I said.

" What are these for?" Anna asked holding up a deck of cards.

" Those are your Cards you use them for battle" I said.

" Why are mine different they have these monsters on them…hey this is Ifrit…and Bahamut…and Shiva" Millie said going through her cards.

" Those are Summoning cards" I said.

" Will you teach us how to use them Mr.Fira?" The both of them said.

" Uh…" I said backing up some more.

" I'll teach you how to use the cards kupo" Mog said.

"Awesome…I just love moogles!" Millie said petting Mog.

" Yea that feels good kupo" Mog said.

" Thank you Mog… I owe ya one" I said walking off. I walked up to the captain's room…The captain was knocked out and resting down on the floor with bandages on his head and Vale was steering the ship.

" Nice work with the ladies Fira" Vale said.

" Stop that I'm already in love with another girl" I said.

" WHAT IT BETTER NOT BE KIAKO!" Vale shouted.

" Easy Vale it's not Kiako" I said walking up beside him.

" Who is she?" Vale asked.

" She's a summoner…her name is…" I started.

" It's Yuna isn't it? Dammit Fira she's already taken by Tidus" Vale said.

" No…Utada you jackass!" I shouted.

" Utada? Never heard of her" Vale said steering us out of the fog. The ship was out into the ocean blue again with the blue skies and the shining sun.

" How long until we reach Luca?" I asked.

" About a day" Vale replied.

I walked down and out of the Captain's room. I walked to the bow of the ship again and thought more of where we were to go next? We didn't have all that much leads but to go east and Luca is about as east as we can get.

" Hey Mr.Fira!" Millie said standing behind me blushing with her hands behind her back. She swayed around then moved to my side.

" Oh hi" I said.

" I was sort of thinking…me and Anna plan to travel now and I wanted to know if you would come along and be my guardian." She said while blushing.

" Uh sorry but I have to decline I'm on my own journey to find my girlfriend and my friends" I said.

" Oh your…girlfriend?" She said getting sad.

" Yea" I said. " She got kidnapped by these men and I'm going to find her"

" Well can we come along too?" She asked again this time blushing even more.

" Well I don't see why not…I need as much helping hands as I can get these guys we're dealing with are tough" I said.

" Thank you Mr.Fira um…I'll see you around kay?" She said blushing and backing up abit then running off. Zero appeared at my side.

" You invited them to come with us? What were you thinking their like at Lvl.1 and their stats are a joke…" Zero said.

" Well we can't just leave em to take on this world by themselves your right they are amateurs but what if they die here? This is a very dangerous world Z" I said.

" Your right" Zero said. "But we gotta guard em with our lives" Zero said disappearing.

" I know that" I said looking off into the sunset. The sun was setting and the stars were coming out. It started to get a tad chilly out but it wasn't anything I couldn't handle. Thinking of Utada gave me much warmth in my heart.

" Ahem" Millie said walking up beside me again. " Um I thought you'd be cold" She said holding a blanket. "Mr.Vale gave it to me wanna share?"

"No thanks I'm fine" I said.

" Oh" She said.

" You should get back inside before you catch a cold" I said.

" Oh yea…wanna be healthy while traveling" She said running off. " Um goodnight Mr. Fira she waved."

I waved back to her. " She isn't but a friend Utada…nothing more than that" I said turning back and looking at the stars again.

(Author's Note: Fira san had become busy all of a sudden so I'll be filling in for him on some chapters hope you don't mind, Millie and Anna are my OCs)

(Cosplayers Millie and Anna)

Millie (Yuna FFX cosplayer)

She uses mostly summoning moves she isn't near as good as Utada but she is a summoner none the less. She can't fuse seeing as though she has no Drive X card but can combine a move with her friend Anna.

Anna (Paine FFX-2 cosplayer)

She uses sword cards, she isn't all that good with the blade either and only knows one combination technique with her friend Millie. Their combined move is the Elixir Blade. Millie uses a lot of white magic on Anna's sword then Anna's sword becomes a healing blade that heals all abnormal status, HP and MP and even refreshes Cards for use again.
