Agana sprinted as she gave a look at her forged weapon. Unfortunately, she was not able to forge a scythe as the metals were not suitable. Because of that, she had to create another kind of weapon. It was a unique double blade that was capable of gunfire, similar to a gun blade. Although she was able to forge a unique weapon, she found that she was having a hard time getting used to the new weapon as she had always used the scythe. Nevertheless, she was still determined to master the said weapon.

(A/N...To those who don't get what I am trying to say. Go to .com and go type in 'Rosso The Crimson.' Her weapon is the exactly same one that Agana is using only that Agana's blade is black in colour.)

Agana stared up only to see that the sky was beginning to darken. She frowned as she decided to camp out in the clearing. Seeing as how she had no camp, she was just going to have to sleep on the uncomfortable ground. The cold-blooded killer gave a small yawn before she slowly drifted to sleep.

(A/N...I really wanted to do a boarder only to find out that I didn't know how to set one...So if any of you who has decided to review this story, please inform me.)

Lightning sighed as she crossed a thin looking tube without a speck of fear evident on her face. Pretty soon, she reached the other end and turned her head slightly, wondering whether they were going to cross the tube or not.

"Okay, do not shake the slippery tube. We cool on this? Do NOT shake the slippery tube!" Sazh exclaimed as he started crossing the tube, his body shaking with fear as he gulped. When he got across, he gave a sigh of relief as he too, turned to his back, intending on looking whether the two other companions were faring well.

Vanille was able to walk across the tube with ease, much like Lightning. Although Hope took a little bit of time, in the end he was able to get across successfully.

Lightning took off in a jog slowly, making sure that none of them lost trail of her. Just because she was cold, that didn't mean that she was not going to bother about them. Sazh felt his eyebrows ticking when he saw Lightning jogging ahead of them. Mentally, he couldn't help but wonder how in the seven hells she had such a great stamina. They had been walking for around 4 hours straight and were starting to feel the painful effects while the cold woman seemed as if she did not feel anything.

Nevertheless, they started walking towards Lightning. After some time, they finally caught up with Lightning. By the time they did that, they had already reached a place that seemed to be like a chamber. While Lightning, Hope and Sazh stuck together, Vanille decided to wander around. They were all immersed in their respective thoughts deeply. Suddenly, they heard Vanille shouting, causing them to wake up from the thoughts. Vanille quickly rushed back towards their side as all four companions stared at the dragon in front of them.

All of them got out their weapons and readied themselves in their battle stances. The dragon gave loud roar, signalling the starting of the battle.

The battle started with Sazh casting buffs onto everybody. Because of that, their attacks were strengthen by a great amount. Hope focused himself on dealing magical attacks onto the dragon while Vanille took it upon herself to cure her partners whenever they were injured. Lightning attacked the dragon with in a fierce manner, never once dropping her mask of solitude.

Suddenly, the dragon started flying around rapidly before it stopped in front of us, glowing a bright colour of blue and yellow.

"It's charging up..." Lightning said, causing Sazh to have a panicked look on his face.

"Charging? Charging up for what?" Sazh soon got a dreaded answer.

"It's last moments."

Everybody tensed up, waiting for the dragon to attack, And it did attack. The four heroes complied back only to find that their attacks did not deal as much damage as it did earlier even with the help of Sazh's buffs. Lightning gritted her teeth in annoyance at how persistent the monster was as it refused to fall down even after they had deal a lot of damage.

"Looks like we're going to fight this thing with all of our effort..." Lightning murmured.

Her three partners nodded as they started attacking with twice the effort.

Luckily for them, the dragon was finally defeated. They all gave a sigh of relief. Fighting the dragon had taken out a lot of their energy. Despite that, it seemed that Vanille was not affected as she was completely energized.

"Hey! Check that out!" Vanille said, pointing towards an airship that had crashed.

"Come on! Hop onto it!" Sazh said as he walked towards it.

(Scene Change)

Agana groaned as she fluttered her eyelids open. She quickly got up as she patted her clothing, freeing it of any dust. That was when she realized something. Everything around her...was blank. It was pure black, without any other forms of different colours. Agana whipped out her double blade, ready to attack. Just as she was about to drop her stance, a loud roar rang out the clearing. Agana did a 180 turn as she brought her weapon in front of her just in time to block what happened to be a strike.

Agana cursed when she realized that she could not do anything due to the dark place. Just as soon as she realized that, her surroundings changed again. This time however, it took place of a beautiful meadow with a waterfall. To anybody who saw a meadow like this, they would immediately exclaim that this place was beautiful...For the colour blind people. For the normal people however, they would immediately run...

The waterfall, flowers, and the sky was all black.

'At least I can see now...' Agana thought mentally. She suddenly heard the shifting of grasses behind her and did another 180 degree turn. Last time, she could not see the beast...This time however, she could see it clearly...And when she did, Agana couldn't help but gasp at how majestic the creature looked like.

There, in front of her was a wolf whose size was that of a fully grown stallion. Its coat was as black as night with red markings. Its tail was long and sleek with a red tip. One of the most noticeably features of the wolf was its eyes. It was a shade of brilliant crimson, reminding Agana of her own eyes. Its left ear, Agana noticed, had a piercing of three red rings.

Another thing that was majestic about the wolf was that it had a pair of wings. The wings were strangely not attached to the wolf's back, but seemed to be floating on the wolf's shoulder blades. The edges were black while the inner part of the wings was crimson.

(A/N...The wings are like Leviathan's wings/fins in Final fantasy 9 when Garnet reaches the place where the sea serpent was sealed.)

The beast was snarling at her, showing off its pristine white and razor sharp teeth.

Suddenly, the wolf started running towards her in a shocking speed. All Agana could see was a flash of black before she was suddenly knocked down by the wolf. She struggled to get the wolf off her, only to have its strong paws pinning themselves on her. Agana, for the first time on her life, was scared. The wolf opened its jaws as it lunged forward as-

Agana shrieked as she sat up. Beads of perspirations clung onto her body like a second skin. That was when she realized that it was all just a dream.

'Calm down, Agana...It was just a dream...' The killer said as she took deep breaths. After calming herself down, she decided to continue on her journey. She would never admit it, but she was still felling shaky although it was just a dream.

However, if there was one thing she did not realize while she was walking, was that the same wolf she had encountered in her dreams, was behind her, standing on top of a cliff watching her...
