Chapter 10

World of Trio

Lucas awoke to find himself in a strange world; it was like the apocalypse had come as where ever he looked he saw sand and the ruins of building. Nothing living was in sight, Lucas wondered what had happened, he remembered fighting and losing to Sephiroth but that was all. Lucas checked his equipment to see that all of his weapons were gone, not only that but his gauntlet was also gone. He wondered how that was possible; he wondered where he was as he wasn't in Midgar anymore.

"Just great, I fall asleep and miss the end of the world" said Lucas.

Then Lucas heard a voice, he turned round to see Sakura and Sakura, both Sakura and Sakura Two had managed to find their way into this world. Lucas ran over to them quickly hoping to get some answers from them as they called out his name. But then Lucas stopped as the sand begun to shake, then a large worm like creature appeared from out of the sand and tried to eat Lucas. Lucas jumped out of the way of the creature but he was completely helpless, he had lost his weapons and above all his gauntlet which meant that he couldn't summon Bahamut. Just as the creature was about to attack him again a voice sounded throughout the area.

"High Pixie" said the voice.

The worn then froze and was encased in ice; Lucas turned round to see a woman holding a brown book and dressed in a weird purple outfit with a brown hood and cloak which covered her face. By her was a pixie like creature however it seemed different to that of a normal living life form, Lucas then realised what it was, it was a Persona like the one Aigis uses. The pixie disappeared and the ice shattered destroying the creature, the woman then helped Lucas to his feet as Sakura and Sakura Two rushed towards him.

"Lucas, are you alright?" asked Sakura.

"I'm fine, thanks to her" said Lucas.

"Thank you for saving him, my name is Sakura, people call me Sakura Two" she said.

"I'm Sakura, just Sakura" she said.

"My name is Lucas, what's your name miss?" asked Lucas.

"Just call me the Mystery Woman, pleased to meet you" she said.

"O…kay" said Lucas.

"Lucas where are we, I was in the ship by Syaoran's side, I remember falling asleep and then waking up here" said Sakura.

"This is the World of Trio" said the Mystery Woman.

"World of Trio?" questioned Lucas.

"A world that lets you view either the past, present or future, it changes regularly hence why it is called the World of Trio" said the Mystery Woman.

"Past, present or future?" questioned Sakura.

"Basically the world changes form to that of the future, past or present, I learned of this world a long time ago and have been wondering it since, however the problem with this world is it never reveals which time period it is in and at what point, making it a hassle" said the Mystery Woman.

"So then how the hell did we get here?" questioned Lucas.

"It seems that you have been dragged into this world by some kind of power, the beings that you are now are not your true bodies but rather your astral form, however it seems that you can still be hurt here" said the Mystery Woman.

"Of course we can" said Lucas.

"You need to leave, if you dwindle here then the gate that is allowing you to stay here will close, if that happens then you will be stuck here forever and most likely killed" said the Mystery Woman.

"What…then what do we do?" asked Sakura Two.

"I believe that the gate that brought you here in somewhere to the east, you must be on the other side of it before it closes" said the Mystery Woman.

"Then can you lead us there please?" asked Sakura.

"Indeed, I shall guide you through this timeless desert and any other time periods that emerge, helping you may help bring me closer to my goal" said the Mystery Woman.

"Which is?" asked Lucas.

"To see a…..friend set free from his fate" said the Mystery Woman.

"Very well then" said Lucas.

Oddly a portal then appeared out of nowhere and from it came a sword, a staff and three gun like weapons, the sword and staff both resembled Sakura's and Lucas' weapons that they had in the real world.

"What the hell" said Lucas.

"It seems that whoever is behind this seeks to reveal something, a portal to an unknown time period has appeared, it seems we have no choice but to enter it, take your weapons and an Evoker each" said the Mystery Woman.

"Okay" said Sakura.

Lucas picked up the sword and Sakura picked up the staff, all three of them picked up one of the guns each and then they entered the portal. There was a blinding light but soon the four of them found themselves standing in a weird place, by the look of thing it seemed like they were on top of a tower. In front of them were Akihiko and Aigis, along with several others and a dark blue haired young boy, slowly a blurry shape came into view.

"You are….." said Aigis

"Ryoji- kun" said a girl wearing a pink top.

"That was my name for a time; I didn't mind it said the blurry shape.

"What's going on here, wait are you…." began a red haired girl.

"I am merely a harbinger of the fall although Nyx and myself are now one in the same" said the blurry shape.

"Is that so, well regardless I don't regret my decision, I'll defeat you no matter what you are" said Akihiko.

"I see…..then you must already know, what people fear most, what they try to ignore, that is what I am" said the blurry shape.

"We know that already" said a young boy.

"Yeah, everyone does" said Akihiko.

"You are what awaits all living things from the moment they are born" said the redhead.

"What the hell is this" said Lucas.

"A…..moment of the past…..but that boy, I really didn't think I would see him again" said the Mystery Woman.

"Then you understand that it is pointless to resist so then why do you, surely there must be fear in your hearts" said the blurry shape.

"Yeah of course I'm scared but there is no use carrying on about it, I wanna live" said a boy with a cap.

"I'm tired of running, living means looking death square in the face so I won't back down, not even from you" said the girl in the pink top.

"I will stop you even if it costs me my live, this is my own decision" said Aigis.

"I see" said the shape.

"Everyone get ready, Nyx is preparing to attack" said a somewhat shy girl.

"The moment man devoured the fruit of Knowledge…" said the blurry shape.

Lucas then due his sword and tried to attack the creature, but as he did his sword went straight through the monster. When he turned around everyone except the four of them were gone, they were still standing on the odd tower.

"They weren't real, they were just shadows of the past and so no matter what we could not interfere said the Mystery Woman.

"So that was a past time period, so what would have if we were in a present time period?" asked Lucas.

"Then we could interfere and everything that could see you in that period can hurt you, with the future you cannot interfere but the things in the future can still hurt you" said the Mystery Woman.

Then they heard a roar and a large monstrous blob like creature flew down from the sky. It's huge slime filled hands cracked their fingers as its wings faded back into its body.

"What the hell is that?" asked Lucas.

"A guardian, a servant of whatever brought you here, it's arcana is Magician" said the Mystery Woman.

That thing can't hurt us right, seeing that this is the past said Sakura.

The creature then swung its arm and knocked them all aside.

"Apparently it can" said Lucas as he got up off the floor.

Lucas then began drawn to the gun he had been given, he placed it to his head without knowing what it was he was doing.

"Per..so…na" said Lucas.

Lucas then shot himself but he remained unharmed, then a creature appeared in mid-air and attacked the monster. It was a large golden dragon, Kohryu, Lucas had no idea how he knew the things name but knew that he had summoned it. Kohryu blasted the creature and it burned away in the flames, Kohryu then vanished as Lucas looked at the gun in his hand.

"This isn't a real gun" said Lucas.

"It is an Evoker, a device that allows people to summon their Personas, I am sure you have see them before" said the Mystery Woman

"Aigis doesn't use an Evoker, neither does Takaya or you for that matter, I never even owned a Persona before" said Lucas.

"Interesting, maybe you can only use it in this world, either way it is a gift that has generously been given to you, I suggest you use it when necessary" said the Mystery Woman.

Another portal then appeared, Lucas found it suspicious that another one appeared right after the fight.

"Another portal, it seems that what ever is doing this is controlling these portals" said the Mystery Woman.

"So if we keep going through these then we should find what caused this and our way out of here" said Lucas.

"It would seem so" said the Mystery Woman.

So then, lets move, I want to get out of this weird world as fast as possible said Lucas.

The four of them walked through the portal and found themselves this time in a temple like place, Spyro and Cynder where there except Cynder was this huge black dragon instead of the sweet little one they knew, with Spyro was also a golden dragon fly.

"Spyro and Cynder, this must be the past" said Sakura.

"Two dragons, most intriguing" said the Mystery Woman.

"We're too late" said Spyro.

"Persist fellow aren't you, this is where it really ends" said The bigger Cynder.

"Bring it" said Spyro.

"No mercy this time" said Cynder.

"I can't watch this" said the dragonfly.

It seemed like they were about to fight yet Lucas and the others had no clue what about, they then disappeared and another portal appeared. Lucas was about to enter it but the Mystery Woman stopped him.

"I have a feeling that there is going to another creature on the other side of that portal, correct me if I am wrong but those people, are they your companions?" she asked.

"Yes, why?" asked Lucas.

"Doesn't it seem odd that all of the events we have seen concern your friends, think on it for a moment, you could see any past you like but you have seen two of your friends pasts in a row, more intriguing still" said the Mystery Woman.

"Does it matter, if what you say is true then we still have several to see so lets get a move on" said Lucas.

The four of them walked through the portal and found themselves yet again in the past, this time it was Etna's. They were standing in a castle with Etna standing next to a somewhat stupid looking demon with her spear at his throat.

"If there not here then where are they?" asked Etna.

"My what a temper you have, that's not very lady like" said the demon.

"Just hurry up and give me back my memories, you double dealing freak of nature" said Etna.

The demon then started laughing but as he did their shapes faded away and then a large creature made out of lightning appeared.

"Oh great, another monster" said Lucas.

"Siegfried" said the Mystery Woman.

A knight like creature then appeared and blocked an attack from the monster but soon both the knight and the Mystery Woman were knocked aside by the creature. Lucas tried to call his Persona but he too was blasted away by an attack from the creature and his Evoker flew out of his hands. Sakura and Sakura two were next on the monsters hit list, it got ready to deal a powerful blow that would kill them however Sakura and Sakura two both pointed their Evokers to their heads.

"Per..." said Sakura.

"So..." said Sakura two

"Na" said both of them.

Two Personas then appeared in the air and battered the creature away, oddly they were both the same Persona. In front of them stood two white angels wearing long blue and green robes, the Mystery Woman was shocked by these two Personas, she had never seen these ones before, their name was White Angel. The two angels then froze the monster solid and then completely destroyed it with one attack, Lucas couldn't believe the power of these Personas however they soon disappeared yet again leaving them alone in the past.

"Interesting, a Persona I have never seen before and you can both use the same Persona, very interesting" said the Mystery Woman.

Again another portal opened up and Lucas and the others walked through it, they then saw Snow proposing to a young somewhat pink haired girl and then quickly moved on. They then saw Mir and Lyner fighting each other with their friends helping Lyner. Then they saw Train assassinating a mob boss before they moved onto Amu which saw her yelling at Ikuto. The last past they saw was Sakura's and Syaoran's past, they were in this ruined tower and Sakura was in tears as she confessed to Syaoran that she loved him, he then replied that he felt the same and she jumped into his arms. This past embarrassed Sakura a lot but Lucas smiled at her, another portal then opened to the next period of time.

"Why did you have to see that of all things" said Sakura.

"No need to be so embarrassed" said Lucas.

"So then that's everyone's past, so this one must be the last portal" said Sakura Two.

"Considering that we saw Spyro and Cynder it must be the ones that heard the bell so let's see, Spyro, Snow, Mir, Etna..., only me left now" said Lucas.

"But your past..." began Sakura.

"Yes I know, let's see if we can't get some answers, the thing that caused this is on the other side isn't it?" asked Lucas.

"Logically yes" said the Mystery Woman.

What's logical about this place said Lucas.

The four of them then entered the final past and were in another weird place, in front of them was the portal out of the world yet something felt off. They were standing on a floating piece of rock with a staircase leading up to the portal. They began to move towards it but as they did Michel appeared holding a jar containing blood samples from all over.

"My lord, this is our key" said Michel.

A creature then appeared from nowhere but it was too blurry to make out and spoke with a deep voice.

"Very good my apprentice, Codename Advaka shall succeed?" asked the creature.

"Yes, I'm certain of it, an army of Advakas are being produced so far four subjects show great promise, two females known as Maria and M, a male known as Eric and finally this sample, I shall only name him Advaka, he is the true Advaka, the masterpiece of my research into blood work" said Michel.

"We shall win the war and call the beast down from the sky, nothing shall stop the true order of the world" said the creature.

The two shapes disappeared and left Lucas wondering what the hell was going on, obiously he was the samples in the tube but what was that shape that appeared and where was the cause of them becoming trapped inside the world.

"That's the cause, that didn't tell us anything" said Lucas.

"No, it told us that Michel isn't the one pulling the stings, that creature called him his apprentice" said Sakura.

"Something's wrong" said Sakura two.

The ground began to shake as a large skeleton monster appeared from the deeps with huge red horns and black wings.

"That thing is what brought you here" said the Mystery Woman.

The creature roared as the ground shook even more, soon parts of the ground began to crumble way and the portal began to close.

"This is not good, it's starting to close, you need to go now, I'll handle this thing" said the Mystery Woman.

"But what about you?" asked Sakura.

"Don't worry, I can leave and go at any time and I need to stay here anyway, as for this thing don't think a merger monster like this can hurt me" she said.

"Thank you for everything but I don't even know your name" said Lucas.

"My name is Elizabeth, say hello to Aigis for me and say hello to him if you see him" she said as she ran of to fight the monster.

Lucas and the other two ran for the portal, the dodged the monster's attacks as Elizabeth blasted it with her wide range of Personas, the portal began to close more vigorously and the three of them just made it through as it shut completely, Lucas quickly looked behind him to see Elisabeth defeat the creature before the portal shut. That was all he saw of her and soon Lucas felt the same sensation as to when he arrived there. Lucas then awoke in one of the bed on-board the Elle Ciel, his weapons by his bed and his gauntlet attached to his arm again.

That's it for chapter Ten, finally done, I'm sorry it took so long, I had computer problems and such, anyway read and review please and hopefully I'll be able to get the next chapter done soon.

Aftermath

Hello and welcome to the Aftermath, this is the recently affordable program that discusses the characters in the story, sorry but the writer was too lazy and stupid to but this in at the beginning, I'm your host, Joy.

What an interesting chapter huh, well let's see who we are looking at today, by the way this roulette picks characters that have and will appear and we always do one hero and one villain a day so be warned, okay so today it is...

spins roulette, roulette suddenly stops.

Aigis and Light Yagami, well let's get reviewing.

Aigis

hight: 162 cm

date of birth: September 10th, 1999 ( technically the date she was made)

profile:

an anti shadow weapon designed to destroy the dreaded Dark Hour and the evil Shadows, originally she was a member of a special squad called SEES in which she helped fight shadows and save the world. Her role was both protector and executioner at one time and she had a big part in the events of the story.

Light Yagami

hight:179 cm

date of birth: February 28, 1986

profile:

known also as Kira, Light was a top student until he found the Death Note and went on a serial killing path to dominate the world and kill all the bad people in the world (in my opinion, nut job). He killed hundreds with his Death Note and went up against the great detective L.

well that's that, hopefully we'll have some good ones next time, but before I go a riddle.

"I am something when you know what I am but you don't know what I am, what am I".

Light would be able to figure this one out as would Aigis
