AN: this is my first fanfic so please please please read and review... definitely tell me what you think about it! ... I don't own anything... 'cept Reah and I have Final Fantasy X... Okay... now with the fic...
I thrashed about in my bed, another nightmare ruining what little sleep I had already gotten, before I finally sat straight up.
My breaths were coming in short gasps, my heart was pounding and I was completely soaked in my own sweat. 'They never were that bad,' I thought, slowly catching my breath.
I looked at my clock and saw that it was still only two in the morning... four more hours until I would have to get up for school if that stupid dream hadn't waken me up.
Figuring that I wouldn't be able to go back to sleep, I got up and crossed the room to my bathroom where I looked into the mirror above my sink. But what I saw was so horrifying, so gruesome and disgusting that I just had to shake my head at it... it was my face.
"Ew..." I muttered, leaning over to wash the sleep away from my face. When I looked back up in the mirror though, it wasn't my reflection that I saw... it appeared to be.. a little boy? I jumped back and screamed, scared out of my mind. I rubbed my eyes thoroughly, hoping that it was just my eyes playing tricks on me out of lack of sleep. But when I looked back up, the kid was still there.
He wore clothes that were unfamiliar and strange to me, including a purple hood that concealed his eyes so that all I could see was his mouth. From his reflection, it seemed like he was standing far away from the mirror but when I looked behind me, no one was there.
"How-" He didn't let me finish though,
"A destiny that was forgotten is soon to be remembered."
"Wha'?" I breathed, completely confused.
"The fate of the summoner lies in your hands, along with one other. Without you two, all will be lost." His riddles were definitely starting to get annoying.
"Sum-a-whatzit?" I asked, deciding not to even try to finish the word, "Wait a second.. How can the 'fate of the sumiemoner'" I said in a mock-tone, "lie in my hands when I don't even know what h-... it is?"
"All will be answered in due time. Be patient and wait." The lil' creepy guy started to slowly fade away, with little balls of light erupting from where his reflection stood.
"No wait! I don't have time! I won't be patient, I want to know now, dammit!" My screaming was no use though because the guy had already completely disappeared. I sighed and fell down to the floor, hoping that it wouldn't be too long before all this was explained to me...
I eventually got dressed and walked downstairs, still confused about what happened. I entered my kitchen slowly, hunger getting the best of me, ready to find some food. I opened the door to the fridge to find absolutely nothing. I groaned loudly and yelled for my sister.
"Becca! There's no food in here!" Getting no response, I started searching through all my cabinets. Luckily, I found one last pack of ramen noodles.
"Thank god," I said to myself, filling a pot with water. I heard a crash from upstairs, causing me to jump. I stood in silence for a while but then decided that it was just my cat, Fasa, and went back to making my food.
After about ten minutes, it was all cooked so I dumped the yummy noodles into a bowl. When I turned around though, I was so shocked to find a man standing there that I dropped my bowl, which smashed into billions of tiny shards on the floor.
"Ah, crap!" I yelped, after the boiling hot water splashed up and burnt my ankles. I started to rub them gently, hoping the burning wouldn't be too bad, and then looked back up at the man.
The man was tall, dark and handsome... need I say more? Well I will... He had a long red coat on, concealing most of his body. 'Damn' I thought, practically drooling over him. He was also wearing big black boots and dark sunglasses that hid his eyes from my sight.
"Who are you? How did you get in here?" I asked defensively, standing up straight. 'Can I keep you?' I continued in my mind.
"That doesn't matter now, your fate is about to unfold." The guy swished over to me, his coat billowing behind him. He got a hold of my chin and lifted it so that I was staring directly into his.. er.. sunglasses, my heart jumped when he touched me. "This is your story... your destiny begins here!" he practically screamed at me.
Before I could ask what the hell he meant by that, I felt a tight jerk and I started to fly backwards. My kitchen and the se-.. er I mean strange man faded away and all I saw was the pitch black that surrounded me.
After falling for so long that I thought I was going to die in this extreme darkness, I slammed down onto a cold, hard surface. As I landed, my head flew back and took a hard hit to the surface, causing me to in turn pass out...
(A/N: so this doesn't confuse you, this is in Becca's POV)
I layed in my bed all nice and comphy when I heard Reah scream from down the hall. I just layed there for a while and figured that she had justhad a bad dreamor something like that.
I sighed with a mutter of 'teenagers' and looked over at my clock on my dresser. 2:13... 'Another nightmare, Reah?' I wondered, slowly sitting up. I got out of bed and walked across the room, ready to go see if my little sister was alright. But before I even touched the doorknob, I felt a hand touch my shoulder.
Acting off of instinct, I grabbed the hand and the arm attached to it and flipped the entire person over my shoulder. I dusted off my hands, proud of my martial skills and looked down at the man.
"Who are you?" I asked him, straight forewardly. The man simply coughed and stood up, a bit wobbly.
"No need for introductions.. yet. All the answers you will seek, will be answered." I pouted.
"What answers? All I asked was for you name.." After I finished, I hear Reah yell for me from downstairs. I sighed and shook my head. "Look, you have to get out.. alright? I change my mind... I don't want to know who you are or how you got in my room but just get out and I won't have to call the police."
"She'll be fine."
"What?"
"Your sister... you're worried about her health... Don't" He simply said. "She'll be fine" He then repeated.
"You have no idea , okay? Now get out.." I went to grab for the doorknob again but the man grabbed my wrist and tightly gripped it.
"Just have faith, it's all I'm asking.." His voice faded away along with everything else and soon I was only surrounded by darkness. I thought I heard a crash and loud 'Dammit!' but I could be wrong...
Eventually after feeling the sensation of falling for a looooong time, I landed gracefully on my feet in what I thought was... but could it be?... Guadosalam.
A/N Yay! first chappie! I just finished editing it because I read through it and decided... I wanted to change it up a bit.. thanks for reading and again... PLEASE REVIEW!
