Chapter 4: Date with Kefka?
"Where are you taking me?"
"On a night you'll never forget."
"How are you able to take us out with no trouble at all?"
"Well I am one of three chair men under the Emperor."
"So you can do as you please, really tell me more," she said in a seductive voice, it made his heart skip a beat.
"Well it turns out that witch Ultimeshia is plotting something against me."
"Why?"
"Oh that peeked you interest?"
"Sure…," she said sipping on some tea. He went onto tell her more stories not remembering how much her brain could hold.
"Wow your buddy was right about you."
"What do you mean?"
'Has he found out?'
"How you're a real deal chick."
"Thanks I guess."
So he decides to scoot closer to her, backing away from him she tries to laugh it off.
"I need my personal space."
"It's cute the way you act all shy."
"Who says I'm acting?"
"Are you putting all that effort for me?"
Changing the subject she asks, "Why do you wear makeup?"
He stopped drinking his tea, the way he looked at her made her freeze.
"Come on I know a place where we can go have fun."
"Gripping her hand he cradled her like baby, did she care? Yeah but there was no stopping him now. Kefka glimpsed down at her with his still creepy smile that gave her goose bumps.
"Please don't smile like that it gives me the chills. Hey if you have such a beautiful face why do you hide it?"
He sighed, "They would not understand."
"Why would they not? This is your face if they are your real friend it won't matter."
"I want you to be with me."
"I'm sorry but I have someone."
"That tall fellow?"
"Yes, his name is Jecht we're suppose to get married three months from now."
He kept strolling towards someone's house.
"Where are we going?"
"To a couple of my friends' house."
Kefka arrived there with a sleeping Shantotto in his right arm.
"Who's there?"
"Kefka who do you have there?"
"My girlfriend, Kuja."
"Really isn't she from the Coliseum?"
"So what's your point?"
"She shouldn't be here!"
"I don't care about that!"
"You know the rules about this!"
"Can we come in, we're cold out here."
"Sure I'll get Sephy to make some coco."
"Make sure the little marshmallows are in it."
"It seems you are changing for the better."
"What do you mean?"
"You never take of your makeup before."
"Don't make a big deal out of nothing."
Kuja led them to the living room.
"So what do we owe to your visit here"
"I don't know I mean you're the one who can have a discussion concerning to this."
"Regarding what?"
Kuja had a pretty good idea about what, but he never seen him like this, so he wanted to tease him on the subject of Shantotto.
"Feeling I think I'm falling for her."
Kuja sweat dropped, "You've only just met and fall for her you mean on top of her?"
"This is no laughing matter."
"I'm here to have a conversation with you, so flap your mouth."
"So here it goes."
(In the other room)
"Are you conscious little one?"
"Where am I?"
"The champions' house."
"Why am I even here?"
"Ask him about it," Sephiroth pointed his One Wing Angel blade.
"Isn't that dangerous?"
"No, but you should have seen it when my little peacock or you know him as Kuja, he flipped off at me, it was a riot, he almost used ultima on me when I scared him."
Shantotto snuggled into the covers; it's been a while since she was in a warm bed.
'You never know what you have until it's gone.'
"Miss the house I lived in."
"Perhaps you will return to it one day."
They glaze into each other's eyes, she smiled, he grinned, it was a code that told both of them "I'm going to win no matter what!"
"Sephy is she up?"
"Yeah what up?"
"Kefka has something he wants to say."
"What could it possibly be?" she sighed.
His long gold hair trickling down his shoulders, he got down on one knee.
"Don't do what I think you will!"
"Shantotto will you marry me?"
(Flash back three years ago)
Shantotto and Jecht finally got Tidus out of the house.
"What do you wanna do?"
"Play scramble?"
"No we say that if Tidus was here."
"He's a big boy now, hey where did he go?"
"To meet his girl friend."
"So we have the houses to ourselves?"
"Pretty much, we won't know if we'll ever get again."
"Jecht you, wow I mean how did we even meet?"
"Oh on a stormy night when we were about to die."
"Yes I remember I casted flame that night in the alley."
"Good at least your mind has not been altered."
"I have strong feelings for you in a way I cannot say," she started to blush.
"will you only have those feelings for me?"
"Yes only you."
"Let's seal it with a kiss."
"Only you will my heart so desire Jecht."
"Shantotto my heart yearns for you."
(End Flashback)
"I'm sorry I promise only him, plus we only just met."
"No we've met before."
"Where I think I would remember you."
When you were a lot younger."
"What about it?"
"You really don't remember?"
"I wouldn't be asking you if did."
"You lived here a long time ago."
"Ah, no wonder she looked familiar," Kuja piped in.
"I lived here before? Why don't I remember?"
"He put a spell on you to make you forget this place."
"Who, tell me who!"
"The Emperor."
"Why would he do such a thing?"
"He feared that you would get the throne."
"The throne what of it?"
"So he put you to sleep and had me take care of you. You said to me, "Kefka you won't forget me right?" I kissed your hand and said never. You were gladly pleased, that night it was a stormy night."
"So what you're saying I'm born of this world?"
"Yes you are!"
"Also the Emperor who is he to me?"
"He's your brother!" the three of them clamored.
