Another day dawned in Hollow Bastion. And up to greet it, with the utmost regret, was a girl with bright blue hair leaning on a giant shuriken. She sighed as the sun peaked its orange edge over the horizon. Another day, another adventure- that was the way it was supposed to be. None of this day after day standing guard on the wall, waiting for a threat that had come and gone. And anything that remained, the computer could take care of.
Teela wished she could be down in the city with Yuffie and Tifa. She was sure they at least were having fun. But here was where she was supposed to be, and she'd be damned if she'd disobey Leon. She absent-mindedly twirled her shuriken, a threatening gesture indeed, although not intended as such. Her weapon flashing in the sunlight would have alerted any enemy within five miles of her presence. Her wandering mind would have easily allowed any such beings to quietly scale the large walls.
In her defense, however, her quick reflexes and steady battle skills would give her enough time to sound the town's alarm system manually, before the computer could even have time to notice a disturbance. She would knock many of the creatures off the stones to a deadly drop, and those few that stayed on would feel the wrath of her blue tinted shuriken. Soon after the alarm, she would be joined by Cloud, Leon, Yuffie, Tifa, and any other available warriors. With their help, the town would be mostly cleared of the threat, thought by so many to no longer exist.
But the numbers of the enemy are overwhelming. The defenders would stand little chance, as wave after wave of dark and twisted beings pour into this place, so newly cleansed. The girl known as Teela would never see the giant shadow incarnate come up behind her. All she would see would be the stones of the place she called home rush past her, and the well of darkness from which this menace sprang come up to meet her.
She closed her eyes and plunged head first into the darkness. Another day, another adventure, right?
