Me: I…guess, but I think I'm more relieved than anything. I was nervous as hell the last two days and now its over. (sigh) let's just get on with the story.
Lloyd: uh…ok. Jen Rem doesn't own ToS, FF, or Ash.
Oblivion, Terran, and Kratos had made camp, just south of Mizuho, making their way slowly towards where they suspected Jenova and the Remnants may be. All three of them seemed to be off in their own worlds, thinking of the past, present and future. Terran had begun to write a letter and upon finishing it, asked Kratos to give it Tiamatt after everything had been sorted out. Kratos then went back to his own thought as he looked at the fire in the middle of camp and Oblivion talked to some of his wolves.
"…There is someone approaching sir." A wolf muttered, sniffing the wind.
"It's not a Remnant is it?" Oblivion asked, glancing towards the northeast.
"No sir." The canine replied as a figure approached on wings of mana.
"Kratos. I've finally found you." The blue haired man said as he landed and eyed the snarling wolves with unease. "I've come to help not to fight."
"Yuan," Kratos glared at his fellow Seraphim with uncertainty. "How do we not you are not simply following Yggdrasil's orders?"
Yuan sighed, crossing his arms as Oblivion put his hand the hilt of his sword and Terran revealed the energy blades. "I have given up on Mithos. His age of Lifeless beings is nothing but a sick fantasy. I came here of my own free will, offering my help to an old friend but if you will not accept it then I shall just leave."
"…Wait." Yuan glanced over his shoulder back at Kratos. "Perhaps we could use your help Yuan."
"Good. Now that that is settled, would you please tell your wolves to quit breathing down my neck and tell me the names of your other companions." Yuan nodded, glancing once more at the wolves who, after a quick word from Oblivion, quieted down, still watching the blue haired strange carefully.
"Yuan is it?" Terran asked, his icy glare fixed on the blue haired Seraph. Yuan nodded as he sat down and began noting an odd similarity to Tiamatt.
"And just who are you?" Yuan asked back, examining the man.
"I am Terran, Tiamatt's father and one of the governing spirits of the Lifestream." Terran replied, relaxing as he realized Yuan would keep to his word about not starting a fight. "I only hope you know what you're getting into if you help us."
"What do you mean?"
"We have to infiltrate the new reactor and confront Jenova along with several hundred Remnants. Not to mention the fact that I must get close enough that I can use Ryukinogami." Terran sighed, hand on the named sword at his side.
"You're telling me that you are Tiamatt's father? I thought she had no family." Yuan asked, skeptical of what the spirit had said.
"…I am not proud of my past." Terran muttered. "Tiamatt has had to pay dearly from my cowardice, which is why it is my soul that shall be used as the payment for Ryukinogami."
"At least you are trying to correct your mistakes." Yuan noted, glancing over towards Kratos before directing his attention towards the wolf king. "And who are you?"
"I am Oblivion, an old friend of Tia's." Oblivion introduced. "I was the wolf you saw when we retrieved the rhierds from your base."
"Is that right?" Yuan asked, glaring at him as he remembered how Lloyd's group had infiltrated his base.
"Yuan, may I speak with you for a moment?" Kratos asked standing near the edge of camp. The blue haired Seraph nodded and stood back up before walking over to Kratos.
"What is it Kratos?"
"There are matters I wish to discuss with you in private." Kratos answered leading Yuan out of earshot.
Outside the Temple of Earth"Bahamut!" Colette cried happily at the sight of the dragon.
"I am Bahamut Mana now Lady Colette." Bahamut laughed before turning back towards the cowering black scaled Leviathan and the bowing Neo and Zero. "Explain yourselves!"
"Brother, Jenova threatened to force us to follow her, like Leviathan." Zero said, head still bowed. "We did not want to become like Sin."
"Hmm…Leviathan!" Bahamut said calmly though the serpent hissed angrily. Bahamut took a deep breath before breathing a steam of green fire on Leviathan whose roars of protest were replaced by a quiet and confused sea serpent.
"Where am I? What happened to me?" He asked looking at the amazed Symphonian who moments ago were being attacked by Leviathan.
"You were under Jenova's control." Neo explained.
"I was?" Leviathan asked. "I didn't hurt any of you did I?"
"No, we're all safe." Raine told the serpent, who looked relieved. "Bahamut, How are you alive once more?"
"Hm, that is a complicated matter Ms Sage. I'll I can tell you is that I seem to be a Guardian Force once more but now have some attachment to this world. Unfortunately, with out a human partner, I can not leave this area." Bahamut explained with a sigh.
"What do you mean?" Genis asked, confused.
"One of you must allow me to junction with you. I will aid you in battle when I can but the longer that I am juctioned to any of you, the more you will forget your past." Bahamut explained. The group all looked at each other before Raine stepped forward. "Do you accept the terms I have given?"
"Yes Bahamut." Raine nodded, trying to remain calm as the great dragon became a small orb of energy, which was absorbed into her body. "Strange.."
"We are sorry for our behavior earlier. Please accept our apologizes." Neo asked, bowing his head before the group.
"We will aid you as much as possible." Zeros added.
"Well…I think we can handle the summon spirits but what about Kratos and the others. They might need help." Lloyd said, after a moment of thought.
"I agree. I believe they are planning to attack the Remnant base, for which they will need as much help as possible." Sheena noted.
"As you wish." Zero bowed her head once more before spreading her wings.
"We will aid Master Kratos as you have instructed us to." Leviathan agreed as Zero's claws picked him from the ground.
"Farewell, friends of Tiamatt!"
Mountain ReactorJenova hated it. She seemed to have less and less control over her body as Tiamatt and Madison worked together to torture the Calamity. Already, she had fallen on her face numerous times, slammed a door shut in her own face that she was opening and walking through, and then had yelled "meow!" during lunch causing many of her loyal followers to try to repress their laughter. It was frustrating but she figured she could handle it…for a while anyways.
I see a little silhouette of a man,
Scaramouche,scaramouche
will you do the fandango-
Thunderbolt and lightning-very very
frightening me-
Galileo,galileo,
Galileo galileo
Galileo
figaro-magnifico-
But Im just a poor boy and nobody loves me-
Hes
just a poor boy from a poor family-
Spare him his life from this
monstrosity-
Easy come easy go-,will you let me go-
Bismillah!
no-,we will not let you go-let him go-
Bismillah! we will not let
you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Will
not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go let me
go
No,no,no,no,no,no,no-
Mama mia,mama mia,mama mia let me
go-
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me,for me,for me-
"…" Jenova rubbed her temples, wishing she could quiet the two annoying souls who now tortured her with a song that Madison had called "Bohemian Rhapsody".
So you think you
can stone me and spit in my eye-
So you think you can love me and
leave me to die-
Oh baby-cant do this to me baby-
Just gotta
get out-just gotta get right outta here-
Nothing really
matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters-,nothing really
matters to me,
Any way the wind blows... Tiamatt and Madison's voices died down, leaving Jenova with blessed silence.
"Finally…" Jenova sighed as the song ended. "Silence!"
Next is All-American Rejects' "It end's tonight"! The two synchronized voices laughed as Jenova moaned and slumped over her desk in frustration.
"Why me?"
Your subtleties
They strangle me
I can't explain
myself at all.
And all the wants
And all the needs
All I
don't want to need at all.
The walls start breathing
My
minds unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone.
A weight
is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.
When
darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
A
falling star
Least I fall alone.
I can't explain what you
can't explain.
You're finding things that you didn't know
I
look at you with such disdain
The walls start breathing
My
minds unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone.
A weight
is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.
When
darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just
a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It
ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
"Uhhhhhhh!" Jenova moaned, slamming her head into the wooden table. "Why" SLAM! "Won't" SLAM! "You" SLAM! "Be" SLAM! "QUIET!" SLAM!
"Ma'am! Are you ok?" A Remnant asked, having watched Jenova repeatedly hit her head on the table.
Now I'm on my own side
It's better than being on your
side
It's my fault when you're blind
It's better that I see
it through your eyes
All these thoughts locked inside
Now
you're the first to know
When darkness turns to light
It
ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight will make
this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends
when darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends
tonight.
Just a little insight will make this right
It's too
late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Tonight,
Insight
When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight.
"AHH! SHUT THE HELL UP!" She screamed, scaring the Remnant who backed out of the room nervously as Jenova
Wow! I think this is the best I've ever done when it came to annoying people. Tiamatt and Madison laughed. OK Next song!
"UHHHH!" Jenova moaned once more as her head once again met the desktop. "How much longer can I put up with this?"
"So you are having troubles are you?" Hojo noted, coming into the room. Jenova looked up and him and glared but her normally shiver inducing glare was cancelled out by the sheet of paper stuck to her forehead. "I thought you might."
"What do you what Hojo?" Jenova growled, removing the paper, and folding her hands on top of the desk.
"Yes. I believe I may have found a way to- Jenova are you listening?" Hojo asked as Jenova closed her eyes with a pained expression on her face.
It's...
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even
though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say
it loud enough
You'll always sound
precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle
diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay!
Because I was afraid to speak
When I was just a lad
My
father gave me nose a tweak
And told me I was bad
But then one
day I learned a word
That saved me achin' nose
The biggest
word I ever heard
And this is how it goes:
Oh!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the
sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud
enough
You'll always sound
precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle
diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay!
He traveled all around the world
And everywhere he went
He'd
use his word and all would say
"There goes a clever gent"
When Dukes and maharajas
Pass the time of day with me
I
say me special word and then
They ask me out to
tea
Oh..
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though
the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud
enough
You'll always sound
precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle
diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay!
"…Yes, I'm listening Hojo." Jenova sighed, trying her best to tune it out. "Continue"
"As I was saying, I believe I may have a way to help you." Hojo grinned as Jenova looked up with interest.
"In what ways may I ask?"
"I believe I may be able to seal away your problems with the help of the Sorceress Memorial which has appeared in a small island to the Far East." Hojo continued.
"Is that so?" Jenova was listening closely, the idea of getting rid of the singing duo highly appealing. "What are the risk?"
"There is a small possibility that you could be sealed as well, but as I understand, you seem willing to take extreme measures as of late." Hojo explained, still grinning.
"Hmm…we shall try it." Jenova said after a moment of thought. "Be prepare to leave for the Memorial in two days."
"Yes ma'am." Hojo agreed, leaving the room.
Me: Jenova's breakdown! HAHAHA! Read and Review Please!
