Chapter 12

-THE NEXT MORNING-

Krystal awoke without Jason.

"Where did he go?"

Then she remembered that he told her he was only allowed to be with her for a limited time.

"Well I better got give the stuff like he asked me to do."

Krystal did exactly what Jason had asked. Mr. Russell was the teacher Jason spoke about. He was quite smart but he was a child at heart.

"Thank you so much Krystal."

"No problem Mr. Russell."

"I'm deeply sorry about his death."

"It's okay."

"Well I better get started on this thing."

-HOURS LATER-

"Fascinating! According to this stone Jason can be brought back, but apparently there is a bad side to it also. I must find out if there is a way to avoid it." The scientist explained to himself.

Days began to pass. After a week flew away, Mr. Russell finally translated the stone.

"Oh! This is wonderful! I got to call Krystal."

So he did. The news practically killed her.

"Yes, after examining the rock there is a way to bring him back after using that technique."

"That's the best news I have heard in a long time."

"The only difficulty is getting him back."

"What do we have to do?"

"Well…"

It took about 20 minutes to answer the question, but finally he finished.

"Okay, so all we have to do is go to each temple and find one of the shards of the gem he wore on his chest?"

"Precisely."

"Okay. I'm going to go get the others together."

Krystal hung up and furiously dialed another number.

"Yuna!"

"What…what happened?"

"Professor Russell found a way to bring back Jason!"

"That awesome!"

"Yuna call everyone."

All of Jason's friends met at Yuna's house. Cloud, Aerith, Yuna, Tidus, Sephiroth, Krystal, Rikku, and Gippal were all there.

"Good now each one of us can go to each temple."

Each person went there separate ways. Everyone contacted each other when they arrived at their destination.

"Sephiroth, do you see the shard?"

"Yes. Wait something approaching."

Just after he stated it a ROAR erupted from above him. Drawing his sword quickly he blocked the massive tail that had attacked. The force caused the silver haired man to sink into the ground.

"This enemy has some power." Sephiroth thought.

The unknown monster attacked again but this time with its claws. This just pushed him deeper into the ground.

"Time to get serious!"

(AUTHOR: TOTALLY)

The male burst from the earth's clutches.

"NOVA SLASH!" Sephiroth cried.

His blade glowed a deep crimson red. As he slashed a large red wave followed. I literally sliced the monster in two. After the attack the enemy dissolved. He approached the entrance to the temple. Right above the door was the shard, imbedded in the emblem. The others had retrieved their shards but with a lot more ease. After everyone had contacted their worried friend, they meet back at Besaid beach.

"What took ya Sephiroth?" Rikku asked.

"I ran into some complications."

"Oh, so that explains why you are late."

"Okay…getting off that subject…" interrupted Gippal. "so what do we do next?"

"According to Mr. Russell, we need to go to where his body was." Krystal informed.

"So we need to go to his statue?" Tidus asked.

"Yes precisely. The only disadvantage of this is that he can't be touched for 24 hours."

"Yes Mam'!" everyone announced in unison.

"Okay then everyone let's get this show on the road."

The group gathered around the sculpture. Carefully Tidus and Yuna placed the jewel pieces in the original place where they had been before. Together the couple put the last piece in place. Soon after the statue began to glow. Suddenly the light faded. Everyone gave a depressed look.

"It doesn't seem like it worked." Krystal admitted.

"Think again." Sephiroth informed.

They all looked at his outstretched arm, pointing to something in the sky. A shooting star seemed to be heading straight towards them. In mere seconds the star struck the sand near the water. Tons of smoke arose from the impact. Sand whipped around. After it cleared, everybody saw two metallic wing-like structures. Attached to them was a black form. It rose to its full height of six and a half feet.

"Jason it that you?" a voice filled with curiosity asked.

The figure didn't move a muscle. Slowly, but surely it turned around to reveal a smiling face everyone had missed for so long.

"Who else would it be?" he asked cheerfully.

No one moved towards him.

"What's wrong?" he wondered.

"Mr. Russell said we were no allowed to touch you for 24 hours, or your in beast will break loose." Krystal answered.

"Okay so I'll just wait here for now. Don't worry I'll be fine."

Everyone began to leave, but not before saying welcome back. Only Tidus, Yuna were the last ones to leave. Krystal remained by his side, but didn't touch.

-WITH MR. RUSSELL-

"Okay thanks Sephiroth. I'm going to work on this rock some more I return it."

-23 HOURS AND 50 MINUTES LATER-

"Wait there's a spot missing here. I have something that looks exactly like that missing stone somewhere in here."

The scientist was now throwing some papers and random things around his laboratory.

"AHA!" he found what he was looking for.

After that little exploring he placed it in the open place.

"Computer analyze." he ordered. "Now that I had the time I am almost done with the creation of the alphabet of this strange language."

It beeped repeatedly before spitting out a piece of paper. Intently he looked at the paper.

"CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! I need to talk to Krystal ASAP!"

He dropped the paper. It hit the ground softly. He fumbled around looking for the phone book.

"CRAP! Only 2 minutes left."

Swiftly he picked up his phone and dialed. It rang once…twice…

"Please pick up!"

"Hello?"

"Krystal!" his voice was urgent.

"Yeah. What's wrong?"

"Where are you?"

"I'm driving to the beach where Jason is."

"Good. You must hurry though!"

"Why?"

"Remember what I told you earlier?"

"Yes."

"Forget that. Part of the stone fragment was missing, and I just found it. That piece completely changed everything. It says now that if the one he loves doesn't show him that she feels the same…the beast will emerge! The bad news is its power will surpass that of Sin!"

"What!"

Her foot jammed down the pedal. Luckily she had received that car from Jason so it was quite fast. She only had one minute left. It took her about 40 seconds to get to her destination.

(Author: yeah I know it's seems a long time but I said it is.)

Quickly she parked the Vehicle. The only she could park…by completely destroying half the parking lot.

"Oh no…ten seconds left!"

She sprinted shooting sand up as she flew down the beach. There he was standing where he had been all day long. He faced her as she screamed to him.

"Jason!"

She launched herself into her friend's arms. Just before he could open his mouth or ask any questions, her lips were pressed against his. Small tears streamed down her delicate face as she placed all feelings for him into that kiss. Jason, dazed and shocked at her sudden actions of um…well of affection. His eyes noticed that she was crying.

"Why is shecrying, and why is she kissing me like this? I can feel all her emotions…I never knew she felt this much for me."

Tears welled up in his eyes as he closed them…enjoying this moment. He encircled her well-defined body and drew her as close as possible with his large arms. At this time he felt something begging for entrance. Eventually his teeth parted. This was probably the best day of his and her life.

"Holy crap! Since when did she have this much lung power."

She didn't want to this to end, but as they say all things must come to an end. They parted for a long deserved breath. Her heart could not believe all of her feelings put this much pressure on her heart. Krystal felt relieved that she could finally revealed these emotions and that Jason returned them just as powerful. Suddenly a deep voice roared.

"YOU WERE TOO LATE!"

Furiously Jason grabbed his head as if a deep pain that was once dormant had awakened. He sank to his knees as the agony increased. She backed away from him not knowing what to do. A massive shock wave pulsed from his body. This caused Krystal to fall backwards. Suddenly all was silent; the pain has ceased; something felt different to him. She stood up and ran over to him.

"Jason! Are you alright?"

His head lifted up and stared into here emerald eyes. She fell back in shock and froze.

"What is wrong with me? Why I can't move!His eyes...what is happening?"

Author: He sorry to leave you hanging here, but how else will I be able to get you to come back and read it.
