Chapter 2: The Coliseum part I
Shanttoto woke two hours later just to feel another girl tap here on the shoulder lightly.
"Why hello and oh good bye!"
Shanttoto strolled over to the other end of the cell. The young girl appeared in front of her once again. Shanttoto peered up into her face.
"Listen what do you want?"
"You want to find a way out of here?"
Casting blizzard for some steps she got even with the eyes of the girl.
"Can you be helpful?"
"Perhaps I can be of assistance."
Shanttoto pondered upon this thought.
"Just don't get in my way."
The girl's face lit up, "Oh thank you!"
"I'm Shanttoto the great and you're?" asking as if she really didn't care.
"Terra Branford an ex-soldier for the Gestailian Empire."
"What's your field?"
"What do you mean?"
"Magic, swords, daggers, etc. I use magic myself."
"I also use magic."
"Really what kind of magic do you use?"
Terra showed her the magic should work with, her face never leaving Shanttoto as she worked away.
"I wonder why they won't think we'll run away."
"Because they know of how high our pride is. We won't risk harming our pride, we won't do it."
"You're right damn it!"
The screaming brought their attention, sounds that roared the cell.
"What's going on out there?"
"It seems like fighting."
"To the death?"
Yes, and then some also to a point where it seems like that."
"Interesting."
Terra paced around the cell until an older lady unlocked the door.
"It's time for you to go."
Shanttoto pointed to Terra and Terra pointed to herself.
"Yeah, the head master wants to see you."
Terra glanced at Shanttoto and waved.
"If we are to meet again," Terra said.
Shanttoto waved back at her.
"As for you it's time for you to fight."
"As if I will, I'm not a barbarian."
"You have no choice."
Shanttoto ran through the lady's legs into the laid beyond her.
"Yeah annihilate him! Get him!"
Out in the middle of the Coliseum blood was sprayed on the ground. Shanttoto's brown eyes widen and her arms lurched at her chest. Blood was everywhere in sight and the men who was responsible, the centers of attention. The taller man's eyes gleamed as he licked his blood stained arms. The other man looked annoyed and bored.
"Sephy my fleece coat! I just washed it!"
"Don't worry too much my little peacock."
"Who are they?"
The lady saw the people Shanttoto gazed at.
"Oh they're the champions, if you want to get back home you have to beat them. There has been gossip that on one has ever beaten them, and the people who forfeited were sentenced to work here until a team could beat them."
"What are their names?"
"Sephiroth and Kuja, they are so exclusive they each have their own song."
"Didn't really care about the last sentence."
'Sephiroth and Kuja, so those are the names I have to remember.'
Sephiroth caught her eyes, she stood frozen while he motion for the lady to go. He was so close her that his arms were around her painfully.
"Let…go…of …me right…now!"
His mouth was on her neck making little kisses, so she closed her eyes, the next thing she felt was someone prying his arms off of her and into his.
"Don't mess with Sephy's fun little boy."
"Shut it Kuja, are you alright?"
"Yes, thank you."
"Sephiroth she's not one of your little toys!"
Sephiroth smirked at the young looking boy.
"Please I must know the name of my rescue."
"Zidane, it's nice to meet you, you must be the new ones who transported today."
"Yes but I have a companion."
"It wouldn't be that tall fella with a tattoo over his chest?"
"Yes, he's not harmed is he?"
"No not yet but I think he will be soon."
"You two what do they do to newcomers?"
"Oh we don't know, we have our own place and it's been far too long to remember."
She turned to Zidane, "You're not a male mirtha, and no you're not."
"Why the heck is that?"
"The male species of my kind."
"Oh no I'm not but there are some thugs over in the like your friend their pride shines though. Sephiroth lifted her on his leg,
"It's time for me to go now but we'll meet again."
She wanted to cast magic so bad but she thought to herself it's not even worth it.
"So what is your name?" asked the three of them.
"It's Shanttoto you three better remember it well."
Sauntering away from the three of them, she thought this going to be an experience to remember, Zidane had followed her.
"Hey Shanttoto baby!" Jecht clamored from across the area.
"Oh hello Jecht how have you been?"
"Fine just some macho little boys wanting to dominate the place I had to put them in their place. What's happened to you?"
"Meet a few people here and there nothing big."
Jecht turned to Zidane, "Hey buddy nice tail!"
"Umm thanks but Shanttoto I have to go."
"Bye see you later."
He left as he came, her head didn't feel so right.
Jecht picked her up, "What were you thinking?"
What in the heck are you talking about?"
"That boy that's who."
"I'm no catching on."
"You are so naïve, what I mean is he's checking you out."
"No he was not!"
"I'd know if a man was checking out my girl."
"Why I'm so little."
"You're cute and sexy a man has no choice but to look at you! You vex a man to look at you. Bewitching all the men who stand in your way!"
"You're serious aren't you?"
"Yes and my heart has never beaten any faster!"
"So you were jealous then?"
He nods his head, kissing her mouth; she closed her eyes enjoying it.
"Don't let any man see you like this," he breathed.
"Not looking my best?" she breathed back.
"Yeah, you're so hot."
"We can't continue like this."
"Breaking up with me?!"
She thumped him on his head, "No you idiot I mean everyone can see us."
"…I knew that!"
The crowd grew quiet and the spotlight was on them.
"Welcome once again to the Coliseum where you fight to get home. I am in charge of things; my name you shall refer to me is The Emperor."
"Oh this looks fun!"
"Yeah my jester next to me is Kefka."
Kefka started to laugh, "Oh you have much power."
Jecht stepped in front of Shanttoto, "You freak don't even gaze at her like that."
"Oooh what do we have here a pain of lovers?"
"That classified information," Shanttoto uttered.
"Let the games begin," declared the Emperor.
