Something to See

Note: This started bugging me…so…I wrote an epilogue. I have an original character here. Her name is Amika.

Epilogue

Dagger's POV

Five Years Later…

"Mama! Mama…lookie!" A four year old girl with long back hair, a summoner horn, and a tail runs up to her mother. Me.

I smile and take the piece of paper my daughter gives me. "Oh. It's an invitation from Eiko. Did a moogle give this to you?"

She smiles a big toothy grin. "Yup!" I read the letter. It's Eiko's birthday!

"Well Amika. Eiko says her birthday is tonight and she wants us at her party." I kneel down and hand her the paper. "Why don't you find a pretty dress to wear and I'll help you put it on."

"Okay!" Amika runs out of my room and down the hall to her's. A second later someone else comes in. Zidane.

He's changed so much in the past five years. Zidane…he's a little more mature because he's a father. His physical appearance is different too. He's taller, more muscular, but he still has that mischievous glint in his eye.

"Hey sweetie. Why's Amika so excited?" he asks. I hug him. "Today is Eiko's birthday. I almost forgot."

Zidane takes a box from his pocket. "Well, good thing I didn't." He opens the box and I gasp.

It's a beautiful crystal. It's shining quite brightly where the sun from my open window hits it. There's only one odd thing. It's…blue. "Zidane…" I murmur. "Is that…?"

He nods. "I found it a while ago."

I look at him confused. "But Zidane…Garland took it with him and how did you-"

Zidane puts a finger to my lips. "I might've quit stealing but I still have a knack of finding things. But…where I found it…is a secret. This is Eiko's gift."

"Are you sure it's okay to give it to her? Is it safe?" I ask worriedly. He chuckles. "It's fine."

"Mommy!" Amika yells from the other room. "I have my dwess!"

"Well, why don't you put on something to wear for the party and I'll help Amika," I say. Zidane smiles, "Sure."

I walk over to my daughter's room. It's funny that I don't need to dress up because I'm in a dress already.

"Ready honey?" I ask opening the door. I go inside. Amika smiles and gives me her dress.

I help her put it on, lead her to her dresser, and then I brush her hair. "You haven't seen Eiko for a while. Are you excited sweetie?" I ask putting the brush down and picking up a ribbon.

"Yes! I can't wait to see big sissy!" Amika says happily. I tie up her hair and turn her around to face me. "Well. Daddy's getting ready okay? We'll be going to Lindblum soon."

Knock, knock, knock. "Can I come in?" Zidane is at the door. "Yeah daddy!"

He comes inside, wearing a tux. "You look so pretty Amika. You too Dagger. Are you two ready to go?"

I nod and stand up. Zidane picks up Amika and we walk out of the room. "Daddy, Mommy says that there's a story she wants to tell me. 'Bout you and her, and Auntie Freya and everyone else. Can you tell it to me tonight?"

Zidane smiles. "Well…we'll start telling you now. Ready Dagger?" I smile back.

"Well…it all started on my sixteenth birthday…"
