Yay! Chapter 2! I wrote it up!
I'm still thinking of a muse, so don't expect one, at least not yet…
Note-Look, I only got like one review last time, and if you people hate my story, just tell me. Flame me-I don't really care anymore. Besides, if my writing sucks, I should know about it.
Disclaimer: I don't own FFTA okay?!? I want it, but I will eventually own it. I don't own any of the other games or movies or anything else involved. (duh)
Strange World
I suppose we were asleep when it happened. One moment we were at Alex's room, sitting in front of his big screen TV, watching Starship Troopers, and then I fell asleep, and woke up on the ground.
"Damn, ow…" My head really hurt for some reason. I moved my gauntleted left hand to the back of my head and felt a small lump. I looked at my armored hands and they felt really heavy. I also noticed that I had this armor that was kind of shiny, like a mirror, though it was still very solid. My boots were reddish, and I had this strange helmet that also looked like shiny, but was different, and made of diamonds! This has to be very strong and reliable. I also noticed two pistols on my belt, and a huge sword that was all shiny. It looked like Excalibur from all those weird movies. My pistols had the name "Outsider" inscribed upon their barrels, so I guess that's what they're called. I was happy to have two pistols on my belt for two reasons: 1, I have two weapons I can use very well, but more importantly, because it meant I actually HAD a belt. (This is very important to me, because I need it to keep my pants on)
I looked about at my surroundings and I found myself to be in a strange town up in the trees, somehow, and I tried to find some of its inhabitants. The first one I saw what looked like a rabbit! I thought about a game I had been playing about a week ago. I remembered: these "rabbit people" were called viera, and they inhabit the whole world of whatever it was called. (Which I had forgotten) I decided to head for a restaurant or something, hoping that this world had someplace where you could get food.
Unknown pub in Spina Lodge-roughly 3 hours after appearance-
Finally found a place called Spina Lodge, where there was a pub. Of course, it had taken three or four hours… Surprisingly enough, I found that if you give the bartender money, he will give you beer no matter what your size was. (or it could be I'm just taller than most other kids) I found these golden coins which were called something like gil in my pocket, and I gave the dude a ten gil piece. I drank the amber colored drink, and I started getting drunk. Finally, after many drinks, I started to think about everything that had happened to me. I thought about my friends, where they might be, and I thought about FFTA. I remembered there was some big time dude that made antilaws, and he should be in a city called… In my drunken state, I couldn't remember clearly where I should go, so I just asked for a room for the night. I somehow stumbled up some stairs, tripping twice, and falling on the floor just as I got to the top. I wandered around looking for the room, and I collapsed on the bed inside.
I woke up feeling different: my head hurt like hell. I guess this was a hangover. I decided that drinking was still okay, though. I headed out the door with no clear idea where I would go. I decided that I would travel around, looking for my friends. I knew that I would eventually find them, so it was worth a try. As I grabbed a map off the bar, I dropped some gil, and went off to find my friends. I didn't actually think I could survive any clan conflicts, but I had to try. I set off with my hands set firmly on my pistols.
Strange Road second day after appearance
The road was very dusty, and I wished that I had brought a water bottle. That would be great. Unfortunately, some 3 huge snakes appeared in my path, and I was forced to stop.
"hey you fellows wouldn't happen to have a beer or five would you?" Unfortunately, they didn't like my humor, and decided to attack me. From god-knows-where a huge armored dude appeared, running after his weird chicken/horse/hamster/something, yelling that we couldn't summon, or something. I was fairly amused watching the stupid guy in armor chase after the chicken(?), and so were the animals.
I took action, just as the creatures were staring at the stupid armored dude, and snuck up behind one. I swung my sword, Excalibur, at one of the weird snakes, and it fell over and somehow turned into a little snake, which I chopped in half and threw into a nearby puddle. The rest of the huge snake things turned around, and one of them cast this spell that sounded like "Night", and it missed me, and put its friend to sleep. How can these things be so stupid? I hit it with my sword and it, like the other one, fell over and turned into an unconscious snake. I grabbed it and threw it at the armored dude's chicken. The chicken stopped to eat it, and the armored guy finally caught up. He swung himself on, and suddenly, the chicken started going a lot slower…
I finished of the last snake thing, and the armored chicken rider decided to yell out battle won! From out of nowhere. Then, for some reason, the guy yelled "Battle won!". What the hell? This place is strange. Anyway, the dude gave me a sack of gil( I think that's what it's called) and another sword that had the name "Ragnarok" engraved on the handle. I didn't get how I was supposed to carry so much crap around, especially without a bag. The sword did sound cool, though. I asked the judge if he would teleport me or whatever to the nearest town, because I had no bag.
"Well, I don't know…"
"Hey!" I said "I stopped your chicken creature so that it would stop, so can you repay me by transporting me?"
After like an hour of haggling he said no, but he teleported off leaving me in the dust. 'Crap' I thought. 'Now what?'
Again on the strange road on the same second day after appearance
Now, I was helluv tired. I thought that there might be a good way to carry two swords and a bag of money, but I was mistaken. I was tired because the gold or gil, as they called it, was not worth very much, so the inhabitants of whatever this place was called HAD to bring tons of it wherever they went. This proved to be very annoying indeed. Finally, I reached a curve in the path, that went through a forest.
"You! Give me that huge bag of gil, and hand over your weapons!" This was not good. Some huge gang of mostly monsters decided that they would rob me. I figured that I wouldn't go down without a fight, and just as I pulled out my two pistols, I heard this weird whooshy noise and this dude with a huge black hat and a curvy staff somehow warped in right behind me. I raised my pistols, but just before I could fire, he said this strange spell and I ducked down to dodge it….
Wahahahahaha! Cliffhanger! But there IS a clue you know! Just read between the lines and you can probably understand… Answer this: Who is the character that you gain who comes with a black hat? Alright… till next time… Hope y'all liked it.
