Ellie smiled as her blade went through the fiend before her. She was tired and frustrated and not to mention her muscles were aching at every move she made. Of course this didn't seem to stop her; she needed to know if it was true. Rumours in Spira spread unnaturally fast for a place with such sadness and destruction. Sighing she placed her blade back into its sheath and continued up the stairs to the stadium. People around her bowed with hellos as she walked past them only acknowledging them with a slight bow of her head.

No matter how she tried to play it off it seemed most of the people knew why she was here. She had gotten impatient and had ventured all the way from Kilika where she had built herself a quiet home to see him. Well ok maybe they didn't know it was for him the least they expected was because she wanted to see the team from Besaid fail like they did every year. Her black-heeled boots made small noises as she ascended the stairs to the deck.

People cheered beside her for their teams but that didn't seem to be her concern. She wasn't stupid, she had seen him and she was sure he had seen her but that didn't mean he would approach her. No he would wait for her to find him. He always did. Chewing on her nail she searched the stadium for the red in the crowd. It took about two minutes before she registered how high above the stadium he was; the top deck.

Ellie frowned, as she was sure they made eye contact though of course this was impossible to tell for sure. The distance didn't allow her to know for sure and his glasses made it even harder to tell. She made a sound of distaste as the announcer voiced the little faith he had in one of the teams though Ellie couldn't care less on whom the man was talking about.

Standing she flattened her skirt and nodded to the man above before turning and heading her way farther up. She could remember the look on his face as she was growing up but now at the age of twenty-seven she knew the reason for his distance from so long ago. She knew she had died too young in her past life and it seems he knew it too. Though Ellie couldn't remember much about that life she knew it had been a sad one. She knew that at the age of fourteen Sin had been unforgiving to her. Of course in that life it seemed she had actually wanted to live; much different then this one.

As she climbed she got more and more nervous knowing what was at the top. Half the time she couldn't understand why she looked up to this man at all. When she was younger she had always figured it was that past life's feelings just resurfacing but now Ellie wasn't so sure. She could no longer tell what were her feelings or the past her's or if there was even a difference between them. She was never sure and it bothered her to no end.

Maybe she wasn't nervous seeing him again. In truth she had been feeling nervous since she had reached Luca. The town itself wasn't sitting right with her. Not like it normally did. It only took a few minutes and about three screams for Ellie to realize why this town had bothered her. So many fiends were now crowding every floor as people ran to escape the building.

"Damn!" Ellie screamed as she ran faster up the stairs towards where she had seen him. Like hell she was letting him go with just a few fiends. She couldn't let this go by and let him disappear again. Running faster against the current of people she was finally unable to go any farther as the people just kept running; pushing her back down the stairs even with her attempts to break free of the crowd.

This wasn't fare. Hadn't she waited long enough? Ten years had seemed like forever and it seems all of Spira was determined to make the meeting wait much longer. Giving up entirely she allowed herself to head back to where she had started at the bottom of the stairs. Rolling her eyes she pulled out her blade once more and faced one of the fiends that had followed everyone down the stairs. If she couldn't get up there with those fiends on the stairs then she'd just have to cut her way through.
