Celestial Child.

Sazh panted as he tried to keep up with Agana and Vanille, both who were quite ahead of him. Agana sighed as she stopped her tracks and jumped, only to land beside Sazh, causing him to be shocked out of his wits. Without any warnings, she grabbed Sazh by the end of his coat and jumped up into the sky again only to land next to Vanilles where Agana released Sazh.

"T..Thanks..." Sazh panted as he looked at Agana. The killer nodded as she waited for Sazh to regain his breath. Just as they were about to continue on their journey, they suddenly heard a piercing scream coming from the East. Agana did not waste her time and quickly ran towards the source of the noise with Vanille and Sazh on her trails, trying to keep up with her.

Pretty soon, Agana reached to a clearing where there were a few monsters and what seemed to be...a child! One of the monsters lunged towards the child, intending to finish the child off only to suddenly find its head cut off. Agana appeared in front of the child and started finishing off them monsters, receiving some help from Sazh, who had surprisingly decided to help her despite their earlier argument and glaring competition. Vanille helped by casting healing spells every now and then.

With one last shot from Sazh's pistols, the last of the monster fell down. Vanille quickly rushed towards the child, as Sazh followed, trying to see if the child was hurt. When Vanille reached the child, she couldn't help but gasp. Even for such a young child, the girl was so beautiful.

The girl had snow white hair that reached her thighs, ending with soft curls. Her eyes were a strange colour of pink, reminding them of the cherry blossom flowers. She had tanned skin, making her white hair and pink eyes stand out. Her eyebrow and eyes lashes were snow white in colour.

If there was one thing that made her stand out, it was the two wing like appendages stuck on each side of her head. The wings were all pointed out, where there were three pink ribbons that were attached on each side of the wings. The child was wearing a simple white sundress that had a pink ribbon tied around her waist where there were two strings attached to it, holding two pink fuzzy balls. Over the sundress, she wore a silky pink jacket. As for her shoes, she wore a pair of pink sandals.

"Awww! Isn't she just a cute little thing!" Vanille said as she stretched her hand towards the child, trying to communicate with the child, only to have the child cry out in fear as the little girl immediately ran out of their sight. Sazh and Vanille panicked, as they scanned their surroundings, trying to find for the child who had mysteriously ran away. When they could not find the girl, Vanille began to panic.

"What did I do! I didn't mean to hurt her! I just wanted to know if she was alright!" Vanille said as tears threatened to spill out of her beautiful green eyes. Just as Sazh was about to comfort her, they suddenly heard Agana screaming.

"Get off me!"

They turned themselves towards Agana, only to see the killer who was desperately trying to get off the white haired child who was hugging her leg with tears in her eyes. While Agana found this situation to be depressing, Sazh and Vanille found it funny as they burst out laughing. Agana glared at them, making them close their mouth although you could most probably tell that they were doing a bad job in hiding their laugh.

Somehow, the child was able to climb her way up to Agana's neck as she hugged Agana. The cold blooded killer clenched her fists as she gritted her teeth.

"M...Maybe she..she's attached to yo..u..because you helped h...her!" Sazh said before he burst out laughing once again.

"Please don't hate me...I promise I won't be a liability!" a soft yet innocent voice came out of the child's mouth. They all stared at the girl who looked at Agana with a puppy pout face. Right on cue, she girl started glowing as Vanille and Sazh step backwards by a few steps. Then, Agana's weapon was also enveloped in the same light. A large pink orb burst out of the child and entered the weapon.

The light became too bright for them to see as the three companions covered their eyes. When the light finally died, they let their hands go as they gasped.

There, in front of Agana where her double bladed weapon was supposed to be, was now a scythe. The weapon was a beautiful black colour with a red ribbon tied all around it. The scythe had black four blades, two on each side of its long black pole. If the blades were to be combined together, it would look like a pair of wings that looked like the devil's wings. In the middle of the blades, was a pair of small white wings that resembled the ones that the child had on her head. Attached to it were two pink ribbons. As the finishing touch, the white wing appendage on her new weapon had a hole in its front.

Agana raised her brand new weapon as she scanned it. Sighing when she found no flaws on the scythe, she turned her head slowly, making her nose almost come in contact with the girl's nose.

"What's your name kid?"

The girl looked uneasy for a moment as her eyes darted. Agana narrowed her eyes when she saw this. If there was one thing that she had learnt during her years in PSICOM, darting eyes was a sign of lying.

"Umm...You can just call me Trinetta!" the girl, now identified as Trina said.

"Trinetta? Doesn't that mean innocent in French? I think it suits you!" Vanille said, only to have Trinetta hide herself behind Agana's long flowing hair. Vanille frowned sadly when she saw this.

"Hey, don't be sad! Give Trinetta some time to warm up to you!" Sazh said as he was able to cheer Vanille up.

"Trine...That's what I will call you..." Agana said, only to receive Trine nodding vigorously.

"Let's go!" said a cheered up Vanille as she jogged in front of them while Agana and Sazh were behind of her. The cold blooded killer sighed as she glanced down at Trine who was holding her hand, and was walking side by side with her.

'Just wait Trinetta...I'll find out about your secret...' Agana thought as she narrowed her eyes.

(Scene Change.)

"Lightning!" Hope said as he knelt next to the cold soldier. He couldn't help but glance as Lightning's brand.

"Your brand looks different...Was that an Eidolon? Like L'Cie can summon?" Hope asked as he stared at Lightning, waiting for an answer.

Lightning sighed as she got up onto her knees.

"Magic and mumbo-jumbo...I must have hit my head on that Purge train..." Lightning said lightly as she stared at the ground below her.

Both Lightning and Hope got up with Hope casting his head downwards.

"Um...Am I really in your way?" Hope said.

Lightning sighed once again as she sheathed her gun-blade and started walking in front of Hope. The young boy did a 180 turn as he stared at her retreating back.

"I'll do better! I'll try harder! I'll-"

"Hope!" Lightning interrupted, causing Hope to sigh, thinking that he was not going to go much further.

"We'll toughen you up..." Lightning said, before she continued walking. Hope looked up confused. Lightning was only able to wal a few steps before she turned her head slightly again.

"I'm sorry about before."

Hope smiled as he rushed forward, intending on catching up with Lightning.
