Oblivium
Oblivion, The Hill of Despair: Quadrum Insolidus
(Silence)
Kuja appeared, his eyes watering.
He had never thought he would feel such sorrow, especially at death. His own death, to be precise.
He didn't even know why he felt this way. He had nothing to look forward to in life. His brief life had no purpose at all.
"You moron," A mocking voice said, "It's not over yet."
Kuja paused, considering his magic.
"Go ahead," The voice said, "We can't die here."
Kuja turned.
Behind him was one of the oddest people he had ever seen.
It was a jester of some sort.
"Yeah, yeah," The clown said, "I look stupid, I've heard it before."
"Who are you?" Kuja asked.
"The name's Kefka," He replied, "Welcome to Oblivion, loser."
Kuja looked around him.
It was really a place of evil.
It was all darkness, with dark colors visible, some of it looking like blood or other fluids.
Various beings were scattered about, some of them conversing, others fighting.
"Oblivion?" Kuja inquired.
Kefka started cackling.
Some of the nearby beings seemed to get annoyed at that. Kuja didn't blame them.
"I don't see what's so funny." Kuja said.
Kefka stopped abruptly.
"Nothing," Kefka said, "Forget it. We're all rather ignorant about this place. We all died and went here. Apparently, we're all evil people. Some of us tried to destroy everything or dominate everything or whatever."
"I see..." Kuja said, thoughtful.
Kefka paused and looked around. He seemed bothered suddenly.
"Well, uh," He said, "Have fun."
He ran off ungraciously.
Kuja looked around, wondering why he ran off.
A man wearing black clothes walked up to him. Kuja noticed his extremely long sheath, as well as his one wing.
"What?" Kuja asked.
"You're a newcomer," The man said, "What's your name?"
"Kuja," He answered, "And you?"
"I am Sephiroth," Sephiroth said, "Kefka has already welcomed you."
"Am I to understand that all of you are evil?" Kuja inquired.
Sephiroth said nothing.
He silently turned to look at the group he came from. There was a rather imposing woman in dark clothes that were slightly revealing and a large, armored figure leaning on a large sword.
The armored figure picked up his sword and walked over.
The dark woman suddenly appeared next to him.
"I am X-Death." The armored one said.
"I am kalled Ultimecia," The dark woman said.
Kuja felt something in his head nudge at his mind, but it escaped him.
"Very... uh, interesting names." Kuja said.
They seemed to ignore that.
"Surely this is the last one?" X-Death asked.
"We kannot know," Ultimecia said, "Nothing signifikant has happened, so nothing kan be assumed."
"What are you talking about?" Kuja asked.
"Not every evil being has been sent here," Sephiroth said, "So that means we are a select few, chosen for a specific reason that we have yet to be aware of."
"After all," Ultimecia said, "We have all had different goals that we hoped to akkomplish with our powers."
"All in vain, I assume." Kuja said.
"Indeed," X Death said, "I even went far enough to desire the destruction of everything! And I was defeated by a group of children!"
"I rekall that they were rather past their childhood years," Ultimecia said.
"Whatever." X-Death said.
"We shall seek Necron again," Sephiroth decided.
Necron? Kuja thought, That sounds familiar...
"Perhaps we should test the abilities of this one," X Death suggested, "If he is more powerful than we are..."
Who mentioned Necron...? Kuja asked himself.
"I don't think so," Ultimecia said, "I kan sense no greater power in this one."
Why can't I remember? Kuja thought, It was... the old guy... he...
"Garland!" Kuja suddenly exclaimed, "That's his name!"
"Garland?" Sephiroth asked.
"The old fool," X-Death said, "He fell here a while ago."
"He is the one who first tried to kontrol Khaos," Ultimecia said, "It was astonishing enough that he survived until recently."
"So he is here..." Kuja said, "I thought so."
"Enough of this," Sephiroth said, "Necron!"
There was a silence, the others around them had stopped what they were doing and looked up.
A huge monstrosity suddenly appeared. It was an extremely pale bluish color, surrounded by strange rings.
"Is this the one?" Sephiroth asked, "Is Kuja the last one? Can we finally obtain our freedom?"
He is not the last one, but it is almost time. You shall have your freedom... after we are done with you.
