Disclaimer: I don't own anything from the final fantasy series. Nothing. Though I DO own Kiki and any other of MY made up characters created in MY mind. But nothing else.

After Kiki landed with Yuna, they stayed on the deck for a while. They were about to head in when Shinra came out and started messing with the gull statue. He attached a wire connected to a box that he screwed to the deck next to the statue. Yuna went over and tapped him on the shoulder.

"What are you doing?" she asked him.

"I'm using magnetic forces to create a much wider range for our moniter to find sphere waves. In other words, I'm making the range of out map larger. We can even see sphere waves from other lands!"

"Lands other than Spira?"

"Yeah, let's go see if it works."

They went inside to Buddy's seat and control panel. There was a loading sign, then a much larger map appeared on the screen.

"Look!" Rikku said from behind where she had come to watch. She pointed at the corner of the screen. "There are sphere waves coming already from that place called… Beal…"

"Beil. Sounds like 'bell'," Shinra corrected Rikku. "That's a southern continent, it's got tons of major cities on it. Not many people travel to or from there because it lies across the ocean."

"Beil?" Kiki asked.

"Yeah, what about it?"

"I don't know, it sounds really familiar… I think that it could be where the lab was… I did fly over an ocean to get here anyway."

"Well Kiki," Yuna said. "Do you want to go check out the sphere waves?"

"Shouldn't we ask Koaso about Beil?" Paine asked. "He probably knows where the lab is if he was supposed to bring Kiki back."

"Knows what?" Koaso asked from the doorway. They all turned around.

"Koaso, do you know about a place called Beil?" Kiki asked.

"Yeah, that's where I lived. That's where my father's house is. Why?"

"We found sphere waves from over there. We were thinking of checking it out…"

"Sure, why not?"

So it was settled and Brother changed his course for Beil, but little did they know they were heading straight for the laboratory for the surprise of their lives. Well, mostly Kiki and Koaso's lives.

'Hey mom! I'm so happy for you! Where is my knew step dad? The lucky guy, make sure he treats you right!' the little girl said to her mother who was fixing her hair for the wedding. The girl's mother smiled.

'I'm not sure where he is, darling. Why don't you go find your step sisters? I'm sure the younger one needs help with her dress…'

'Okay mother.'

The little girl left the room to find her sisters. The wedding started at noon and the party lasted most of the night. Everyone was happy…

"Kiki!"

Kiki was startled awake by the sudden shoving from Rikku. She yawned. "What is it?"

"Where there!" she said excitedly.

"What?"

"Come on sleepy head!" Rikku said, pulling her out of bed. "We made it to Beil. We're almost to the site of the sphere waves. Let's go watch from the bridge!"

"Okay!" The two hyper girls waltzed to the bridge and looked out the window. It was sunny, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky.

"We're landing!" called Buddy. "Hold on sekrd!" "Hold on tight!"

The ship came down and landed with a light thud. The gullwings assembled and went out the door. Koaso and Kiki stopped dead in their tracks and their jaws dropped simultaneously. The sight before them was a disaster, but that wasn't all…

"What's wrong with you two?" asked Yuna. "Are you guys okay?"

"It's… it's… the lab!" Kiki cried. Kiki saw the glass dome that had once been her prison and shivered. The rest of the lab was no masterpiece, it was a disaster. One whole corner of the house was blown off, and there were scratch marks all over the walls. The gullwings slowly ventured forth to the inside. Inside was even worse.

"It looks like a tornado came through here. It looks like nobody survived…" Rikku said.

"Over here!" cried Paine. "I found a sphere… it's black…"

They crowded around to watch. Most of it was a documentery of an experiment they called 'Metal'. They also mentioned something called L4. (Please read Experiment M5 by tollivandi silverwing. We are joining stories. She has every right to copy me, but nobody else does.) Kiki knew it was her step sisters. Then, in the last document, the invredible happened.

Slowly, the small machine infused girl came out on the conveye belt. She slowly sat up as the scientists watched in awe. She looked at her hands, then smiled in a creepy way. Simultaneously, her claws and head spikes came shooting out. She looked at the scientists who were backing away in horror.

'Where is my dear step daddy?' she asked in an innocent tone. 'I want to thank him for my new outfit…'

After that, she jumped off the table and attacked everything and everyone that she could. It was very messy. M5 broke through a wall, setting another girl loose who had a tiara on her head. Kiki recognized her almost immediately. The sphere stopped.

"Lily!" she cried. "Metal! They're still alive!"

Cliffy cliffy cliffhanger!
