Voices of a Lost Spirit
It's kinda cliché to wonder where I am…but I guess I want to know…Seifer…where is he? I wonder if he made it out alive. Am I dead? Is this what happens when you're dead? All you think about are other people…how boring. Hey wait…isn't there some kind of visit from Hyne or something. I've been mostly good my life…mostly…well, there was that one time I snuck into the boy's locker room and stole boxers from each of their lockers and hung them up over the entrance. But that was because the boys made fun of me, said I was ugly and tomboyish. Too bad they became drooling heaps of goo at my feet later on. Ha…that was revenge enough. And there was that one time where I slipped a T-Rexaur skin in the teacher's desk and it began rotting. Ew…the smell was horrible. Not to mention that one time when I shoved Xu off a cliff and into the ocean. She never forgave me for that. And that one time when I stole all of Cid's cards and sold them in the cafeteria…wait, why am I thinking of this now. I've been a relatively good girl, do I have to dwell in my thoughts forever?
Seifer…where is he? I've already asked that to myself but where is he really? I'm sure he survived…I put my entire life and energy into that shield but the Omega Weapon was stronger than ever…I doubt anyone can defeat it. Squall…I wonder how the others are doing…I wonder if Rinoa's all right. Seifer that jerk. How could he do something like that? But…with my death…I know they'll be sad. This is what I've always wanted, right? This is what I've wished for on every star possible. Salvation, peace, and end to all my troubles by means of death. But…I can't help but feel empty. I feel lonely. I want to go home. I guess you don't know what you have until you lose it. I had friends, that's what I had. And I had a man who loved me. Why didn't I realize that? It wasn't until I died that I realized that I really did love Seifer pretty badly. He can be a jerk sometimes but…but…he's the Seifer from my childhood nonetheless. I can love him, I do love him. It's a pity I had to die before I realized it. I guess everything comes clear when you die.
Huh…It's been a while. Is this death or what? I thought all the people who died before were supposed to greet you. You know, the golden gates, bright light, family who have passed away. I thought my parents would run at me with open arms. I wouldn't recognize them but still…someone should've greeted me and welcomed me somewhere, Heaven or Hell. Hopefully not Hell. Ah…maybe that's why I haven't seen Seifer. If he's dead, chances are he's going to Hell. Poor guy. Even if it is in the dreariest of infernos, I want to join him. I just hope he's alive and well. I wonder…
What do you wonder Quistis?
Who the Heck are you?
What? Don't you know me? I'm only the great Hyne, ruler of all.
Har, har, very funny. You're not Hyne. Hyne doesn't talk like that. He's not supposed to be arrogant.
I'm not sure how to take that, Quisty.
Don't call me that.
Why not? I created you didn't I? No, really, I am Hyne. Who else would talk to you at a time like this? Santa?
If I ever meet anyone, I must tell them that Hyne's a sarcastic humorous voice. Give me one reason to believe you.
I can resurrect you?
And why would you do that?
Um…got me. Well, here's the deal. You're not really dead.
Har har. I just love your sense of humor. If I'm not dead, where am I?
I can't answer that! It's a secret. But anyway, you're just in a different place than death. Honestly…I'm not joking. You can take my offer or sit here forever thinking to yourself alone. Do you understand how boring that would be?
Yes.
Well now that we're clear on that, do you want to return to life or not?
I have a feeling that there's a catch, "Hyne."
Smart girl. Yes there is a catch. Only your one true love can save you.
I feel sick to my stomach. Sooo many clichés here…
What? I'm not joking either. Right now the only one capable of resurrecting you is the one that loves and believes in you the most. And I'm sure you know who that is.
Edea?
Quistis, don't make me hit you.
Ok, ok. I was joking…well…maybe not but that's not the point. You're saying that an incompetent loser is supposed to save me?
That's your one true love you're talking about.
It's true isn't it? Seifer's not exactly the brightest.
He's mourning your death. He had been mourning your death for months.
……Oh. I really mean that much to him?
Yup.
So what does he need to do?
Good girl. Onto the procedure. Currently, your body resides in the Omega Weapon.
Ew…that's just nasty.
Be quiet please?
Sorry.
You body is in the Omega Weapon. Seifer has to kill it. Now, the only way you can communicate with him is during the night, when he sleeps. He has to find the Omega Weapon and kill it. But that's not all…you only get a day to live before you actually die.
WHAT??!! YOU SERIOIUS?!
Haha. You're so gullible when it comes to listening to me.
I'm disliking this version of Hyne.
What do you mean this version? This is the only version. It's been that way only people have glorified me too much. Back to the matter. After he kills it, he has to eat it.
Hyne…
Fine. After he kills it, he has to retrieve your body and also your spirit. He has to basically come to this dimension and find you. But it won't be easy. There's also a high chance that all of this could damage your mind. If something wrong happens, you might as well be dead, you'd be nothing but a shell and your spirit would wander the planet, never being able to join your body. You'd be like a doll. There's also the chance that you might lose your memory. I'm not talking temporarily either. I'm talking forever. But then again you might not.
I'm amazed at how comforting you are.
Hey, I'm Hyne. I'm not here to sugarcoat things. So, will you accept or not?
Yes.
