Red Mage Hikaru here! I just wanna welcome you to my fist fanfic! Please be gentle, I am new at this so if you can R&R and help me out, it would be most appreciated.
Disclaimer: I do not, I repeat, do not own FFIX or any characters in it! If I did, I would be in Belize drinking some drink in a little coconut.
Servatis a Maleficum
Chapter 1:
Prologue
Six years ago, Zidane Tribal, Garnet Til Alexandros XVII, Adelbert Steiner, Vivi Orunitia, Freya Crescent, Quina Quen, Eiko Carol, and Amarant Coral saved the world of Gaia from the clutches of Zidane's brother, Kuja. Kuja was from the planet of Terra, as was Zidane, and was sent (and created) by Terra's ruler, Garland.
In the end, the band of heroes followed Kuja to Memoria, the land of memories, which hovered above the giant Iifa Tree. While there, Zidane and the gang fought an armitage of enemies to get to Kuja and stop him from destroying the crystal, which in turn would end all life on Gaia. After defeating Kuja in his trance form, the group was sent to the land of the dead, where they fought and defeated Necron, the "Grim Reaper" of Gaia. Afterwards, everyone appeared outside the Iifa Tree, which had come alive.
Zidane noticed that his brother, Kuja, was no where to be found. Zidane then proceeded to go back to the Iifa Tree alone to find him, while the others escaped safely. Zidane eventually found Kuja, near death, inside the ancient tree, but not a moment later, the trees living roots all converged on that spot. Was that the end of Zidane and his brother?
A few months later...
There was to be a huge celebration in the Kingdom of Alexandria. Queen Garnet Til Alexandros XVII was hosting a reunion for the adventurers and the theatre group Tantalus was coming to present 'I Want To Be Your Canary', the same play that was held there when the adventure started. Everyone was there, everyone that is, except for Zidane.
The play started. Marcus, who was donned in a hooded cloak to hide his face for some reason, was supposed to meet his lover, Cornelia, at the docks so they could leave together, but she never came. Marcus was talking, but it mattered not to Garnet, for her love was missing as well. Then, something surprised her.
Marcus threw off his cloak to reveal our very own Zidane Tribal, who said, "Bring my beloved Garnet to me!" Garnet jumped out of her seat on the royal balcony and ran to the door. General Beatrix and Captain Adelbert Steiner blocked her path for a moment, then let her go to her love. As Garnet was running to meet Zidane on the stage, her royal pendent fell off her delicate neck. She turned around and put her hand to her neck, but turned around and continued running, leaving the large jewel behind. She flew into Zidane's arms and there was a rupturous applause.
She looked up at him and asked, "How did you survive?"
"I didn't have a choice. I had to live. I had to come back to you."
"So..."
" So I sang your song...Our song."
Over the next six years, many things happened. First off, Zidane and Garnet, or "Dagger" as she was called, got engaged and then married, making Zidane Prince Consort of Alexandria. Eiko and Vivi have spent a lot of time together, despite the distance between Black Mage Village and Lindblum. Freya and her love, Sir Iron-Tail Fratley, have been together since the incident at Memoria, although Fratley remembers nothing of their past together.
Steiner and Beatrix have devoted their time off of their duties to spending time with each other. Quina returned to Qu's Marsh on the plains between Lindblum and Bermecia and has been happily catching frogs ever since. Amarant has been trying to raise his wanted level in Treno and other places on Gaia by continuing his duties as a bounty hunter and thief.
Our story picks up at this time, when all seems calm. But is trouble looming ahead?
