(This is a fun little thing I thought up one night not too long ago, I wanted to post it but I had just made my account so I couldn't upload anything until now. But I hope you like it, it's based around WA3's Filgaia but there're characters from the other series. I did this without much planning so it may be a little scrappy, tell me what you think when you're done, I'd love to hear what people think about it.)
Chapter 1: Forever And A Day
A warm wind
grazed the surface of Filgaia as it blew across the barren desert. In
the middle of a wasteland where the only thing close to civilization
were the beasts that roamed the rocky crags, rising high above the
ground. In a way those monsters that spent their entire lives walking
from one meal to another were not so different from human civilization
at all. These and other thoughts echoed off the mind of a blue haired
teenage boy as he stood daydreaming in the middle of that barren plain.
Not but a few meters away from him a man with long silver bangs and a
pair of round spectacles was hopping from side to side with his hands
held behind his back, and had there been no monster swinging at his
feet it would have seemed as if he were dancing. The scorpion like
monster swung it's claws at the man as it inched forward on its two
broad feet.
As the man continued to casually dodge the monster's claws he sighed out of boredom and his mind began to drift. But as his attention shifted away from the monster its deadly tail swung down on him. With little time to react the silver haired man took a blow to his right arm falling to the side, but before he could hit the ground he had drawn a pistol and sent three bullets into the monster. The sand crab monster roared in pain as it dropped to the ground dead with a bullet in each eye and one directly between them. A deep wound in his right arm, the silver haired man grasped the limp arm and winced. With the gun fire and the thud of the silver haired man against the rocky ground the blue haired boy snapped out of his dreamlike trance. He hurried over to the silver airman and helped him to his feet.
"You weren't paying attention Judecca. How many times have I told you to pay attention to your opponent in battle?" Reaching a hand to lightly touch the wound on the silver haired man's arm, the boy's finger received a kind of static shock.
"Yow! Hey what're you trying to do? Leave it alone we'll fix it up later." The silver haired man complained and swatted the boy's hand away. "And I've told you, I can't focus on these stupid monster, especially weaklings like that sand crab, such things aren't worth the effort." Judecca's voice was peeved and perhaps slightly whiny.
"May I remind you that one of those weaklings that isn't worth your time just took a nice chunk out of your good arm?" The boy chuckled as Judecca sneered at the remark, but soon let a light laugh out himself. "But quite seriously Judecca, I must've told you millions of times not to underestimate your opponents, a single-"
"-window of opportunity is all it takes to make or brake a battleā¦" Judecca finished the sentence in a mocking sing-song voice. "And how many times have I had to tell you not to act like my parent? You look more like you could be my son." At that the boy haired boy laughed full heartedly.
"I can't argue with that. But seriously, you can't let your mind wander like that in a fight. I know I told you not to get absorbed in outfights either but I didn't mean to ignore the fight entirely!"
"Oh please! Why do you always bring that up? I'm not getting bored on purpose, and besides that was that one time that I got too caught up in things and on top of that it was like a hundred years ago!" Judecca argued against the blue haired boy's lecturing like a child.
"Yes and look what that one time did to you! I'm starting to think that wound you gave yourself did some kind of permanent damage to your brain, that's probably why you can't focus." The blue haired boy chuckled and gave Judecca a little shove.
"Hey, don't make fun of me, shrimp!" Judecca laughed and gave a playful shove back. "Besides that little hole patched right up, thanks to you." Judecca tapped a finger against his temple where a sound like metal rang off it. "See?"
"I told you before Judecca, I just got your body out from that Diablo pillar, your body healed itself" The two had been talking for awhile since the battle with the sand crab, walking towards the next town all the while, and as they approached a large cliff face they stopped and sat down under it. For some time they simply worked on their guns, giving a few minutes to wrap Judecca's arm, curious objects that they were, no ordinary firearms but rather they seemed to be made of unfamiliar parts, almost alien looking in their precise complexities.
As twilight embraced the wasteland with it's warm spectrum of oranges and reds the two ventured apart to gather some wood to light a fire with and meat to cook and eat. As Judecca walked through the empty desert he scratched at the cloth tied around his arm. He winced at it a bit and pulled the cloth up to have a look at the wound. The gash had been deep but it had already been covered with a scab, but the scab was very strange, it was a dark grey in color and its texture was more metallic than fleshy. However Judecca saw nothing that surprised him, but he was about to continue walking he spun around to the sound of a gunshot fired off in the direction of his camp. Worried for his companion he ran back towards the camp as fast as he could.
(I had alot of fun doing this even if it isn't great, not to mention the only word processor I have is a notepad so there's no spellcheck, I just hope I didn't goof up anything too bad, if I did sorry. ;; I don't really know when I thought of the story, it just kinda came to me. There'll be other interesting twists as well, so I hope you continue reading this as I update. )
