Chapter I: The Fayth
Finally, I get around to some FFX stuff, anyway, this is my first FF fic, and it basically follows the storyline except for the addition of Heiei (Pronounced He-A), and a few other parts. Um, the characters might seem OOC but...I sometimes have trouble keeping them in character, so, sorry in advance if that happens. Anyway, I own only Heiei, no one else, everyone else belongs to Square-Enix.
(Heiei's PoV)
I lay there in my bed, I couldn't sleep...(Damn, I hate it when this happens...) I thought, It didn't happen very often, but...I still hated it.
I closed my eyes and tried again, after about 30 minutes of trying to get to sleep, I finally gave up, I sat up and looked at the clock sitting on my windowsill, 3:47...(Great...) I thought, (Why does this have to happen tonight?) Tiredly, I got up and turned my PS2 on, I knew that I shouldn't be doing this but...it really didn't matter, what my mom didn't know wouldn't hurt me.
I looked at the title screen that popped up on my TV, Final Fantasy X...As I selected 'Load' from the menu, I felt a strange rumbling. "What the hell..." I said quietly, not wanting to wake my parents, I dismissed the rumbling and turned my focus to the game.
The game started up, I was at the Djose highroad, right after Operation M'ihen, as I started to move up the road, the screen turned black...like there was a cut-scene. "There's not supposed to be a cut-scene here..." I said to myself, then the power turned off. "What the?" I walked over to the PS2 and pressed the on/off switch, nothing...
"This is really weird..." I said quietly, "Ah, well, I'll figure it out tomorrow..." I walked back over to my bed, and laid down again, (Maybe now I can get some rest...) After a long while, I finally fell asleep.
(Normal PoV)
Heiei's PS2 shook and vibrated violently, his TV screen shone in a bright blue light. A strange young boy, his face shadowed by a purplish hood appeared in his room, standing next to him. He looked at Heiei, and then drew a long broadsword with a crosshilt that resembled a sun. He slashed once, creating a strange portal, which Heiei was sucked through, the strange boy then smiled, and vanished.
(Heiei's PoV)(????????)
Darkness...that was all there was, my eyes were open, but still all I saw, darkness and small orbs of spectral light. One of the orbs floated over to me and spiraled around me, I reached out to it, but it dissipated. A small boy, wearing shorts and a somewhat long purplish shirt, appeared in front of me, he wore a hood, which shadowed his eyes, and a long broadsword was sheathed at his waist.
"What was that" I asked, although, I had a strange feeling I one of those strange lights, and this boy before.
"It is a pyrefly," The young boy said in a calm voice, "You are probably wondering where you are and why you are here, correct?"
"Well, actually, yes." I said.
"You are on the Farplane." The boy said, "And the reason you have been brought here, is him." The boy waved his hand and the pyreflies swarming around the area spiraled to create a figure, a person that I had seen multiple times before.
"Tidus?!" I said surprised... "But wait, he's a..."
The boy cut me off. "You shall follow along in his story," he said, looking at me, "No one will know that you have left your home, everything that must be done, will be done, only once his story has ended, will you be able to return, and then, only if you desire to."
"So...basically, you're saying that I'm going to become one of Yuna's guardians, right?"
"You are correct, Heiei," the boy said, "But as you are, you are not ready."
"What do you mean?" I asked, "And who are you?"
"You know who I am Heiei," He said.
I thought for a second "...You're Bahamut." I said
Bahamut nodded, "Correct, now, I must prepare you for your journey," He said.
"I still don't get what you mean by 'prepare'." I said, kinda confused
Bahamut didn't answer, he just raised his hand, and pyreflies swarmed around me, creating a glowing, spiraling barrier, my body was engulfed in a bright light, the pyreflies soon dissipated, leaving me dressed differently. "See your new self." He then said, gathering pyreflies to create a sort of pseudo-mirror in front of me
My clothing had changed a lot, I now wore a long red trenchcoat, open all the way down, a long sleeved white shirt, black fingerless gloves, black, somewhat baggy pants and brown leather boots. A curved saber hung at my waist. Not much else had changed on me though, my shoulder blade length black hair was now tied into a low ponytail, and my eyes were golden now. They were the only thing that had really changed
Bahamut looked at me, "Now," he said, "You are ready." He then drew his sword and slashed once, creating a portal, which I was sucked through, giving me no time to comment on the fact that I had absolutely no idea how to use my new weapon, the last thing I heard him say, was "Good luck."
Bahamut's portal spit me out in midair over the ocean, I fell a short way into water, which was raging and churning, as soon as I hit, I went under. I quickly fought my way back to the surface, but was soon pulled under again, farther down this time, I fought my way back up, my lungs burning, I managed to stay afloat this time, giving me a chance to look around. There were many people on shore, shooting at something, the sounds of gunshots echoed through the air. I saw a huge gun on shore, charging with electricity. (Hang on...I know this place...I'm at Mushroom Rock, during Operation M'ihen...) I thought, suddenly, I was swept backwards by another huge wave, probably caused by Sin's...(Hang on, Sin?!)
The wave rammed me into something hard, my back hit it roughly, I turned around, and saw...Sin. The huge grayish black monolith looked down at me with one of his many eyes, I started to feel woozy...light-headed, (What's happening?) I thought as the world started spinning, my vision blurred. I looked up again, I could faintly see Sin still looking down at me, then, my vision started to blur...and soon, all I saw was darkness.
Well, that was the first chapter, I know it was kinda boring, but don't worry, it'll get better in about two or three chapters, Heiei definitely has a problem now though, he came in contact with Sin, what will happen now that he's been affected by the toxins? The next chapter will be up soon, until then, review please!
See ya
