Meeting With Kuja And Zidane

Thank you very much for your review Lucrecia leVria and I will be making chapters longer. That was just an intro chapter. I hope that many others are reading this fic and if you are I would really appreciate some critical advice. Also I would like to apologize for how late the second chapter is. And now for the next chapter!

Disclaimer; I do not own ff9.

Chapter 1

Darkness was all I could see. But for some reason I could hear alright. There were footsteps that sounded as if they were coming from the side. Having to learn where about's you're victim for a thief amazingly relies on having good hearing.

"Hey Kuja! I think she's awake," the voice sounded as if it belonged to a five year old.

"Very well. Go get the other herbs so I can get her voice and sight back. It would not fair well if she were to be in a panic because she realised that she cannot see nor speak."

"Okay!" Then I heard footsteps get fainter.

Of course I then chose that moment to relay the older voice in my head. I can't speak! I then started to struggle, then the one named Kuja spoke to me.

"If you struggle then your wounds will get worse. Please refrain from moving." I then felt someone's hand on my forehead. "At least your temperature has went down."

"I got them bro, but I think Garland is coming to see you."

"Very well. Zidane please make sure she eats this entire herb, then count to 30 after she has eaten that and make sure she drinks this straight away. I am going to Garland. Please do not disturb us." Footsteps again faded from the room. And suddenly I felt something being shoved into my mouth.

"Ya heard big bro! Eat it all!" I swear when I'm fully healed I'm gonna yell at that guy till his ears fall off. In the meantime I tried to swallow the seaweed tasting so called herbs. Finally, when I had swallowed all of the herbs, I heard the boy, Zidane I think, start to count to 30. After he reached 30, he stuffed a bottle into my mouth. Again, it tasted horrible! That's it if this guy ever gets ill and I have to help him. He. Will. Suffer.

"There! Ya should be better now!" I opened my eyes again and he was right I could see again. The stuff may have been disgusting, but at least it worked. Now for the shouting rage.

"Were ya tryin' tae droon me! I cannae swallow tha' fas.'"

"Sorry!" He didn't sound sorry at all. Infact he sounded smug. I then took a good look at him. He had light blond hair and just like his voice suggested, he looked about 5 years old. But the most surprising thing was that he had a tail. That's right a Tail!

"Ya halve a tail!"

"Yeah! Doesn't everyone?"

"Were am a exactly?" I asked as slowly as I could. Call it a hunch or whatever but I didn't think I was on earth anymore.

"You're on Terra, in the once great city of Bran Bal! We're waiting for our souls to return so we can make this planet as great as it used to be!" The boy smiled while saying all this. It was truly creepy. I mean waiting for your soul to return? Maybe he's taking some sort of drugs?

"What's your name anyway?"

"Aurora, is yours Zidane?"

"Yeah! How'd ya know?"

"The other guy, Kuja?" Zidane nodded, "Ah heard 'em sayin' yer name." I finally took in what Zidane had said before. I was on another planet? One without souls? Then it came back to me. The Starlight Jewel. Was this the reason that I had ended up here?

"Hey! D'ya know sumthin' called 'The Starlight Jewel'?"

"A teleportation device that was placed on a planet called Earth." Then Kuja walked back in. I don't know what it was, but he felt…colder? Than he was before.

"So that is where you came from. Well until you find the jewel again it looks as if you are staying. Zidane," he jumped as if he was surprised. Now here's a question for you. If you have no soul, then wouldn't you have any feeling? "Prepare a room for miss…?"

"Her name's Aurora." Zidane then started to jump up and down on the spot. "I'll go get her room just now!" then he ran out the door. Maybe sugar could give you a soul?

"I apologise for my brothers behaviour. We never get visitors in Bran Bal. Now I suppose you have questions?" Oh yeah! It wasn't just my imagination that he was colder.

"Ar ya awe righ'? Ya seem colder than ye were a few minutes ago?" Then Kuja's eyes narrowed. I swear to you all just now, that when he looked at me with that gaze, icicles started to appear.

"That is none of your concern. Now sleep." And when he said the word sleep, I began to drift into darkness once again. But when I woke up the second time, I would not be in a more understanding mode.

Right you're probably wondering what's happened to my character. Well I'll tell you.

First of all, the reason she is so accepting of her situation so well is because of the herbs and trauma that she has experienced but that will disappear in the next chapter.

Second, no my grammar is not that bad. Remember my character has lived in the streets for years thus she won't talk properly. Again that is going to be rectified.

So until my next chapter please R&R
