Terra is standing outside on a cliff side thinking quietly to herself. 'I can use magic, so what? It's not like it hasn't been seen before... but still, it feels wrong. Magic has disappeared from the world, it disappred from within me. So why can I still use it? It's as if it means something more... but what?'
"Terra?" Setzer walked up beside her, lowering himself down to sit beside her; the Esper girl took his lead and sat down as well.
They stared at the sky, silently watching as the sun is rising.
"They're mad at me aren't they...?" She said mechanically.
"I believe the word you're looking for is confused." The gambler replied. Removing his coat, he slid it around her tiny, though mighty, shoulders noticing the shudders. But it wasn't from cold, it was fear. The warmth was given as comfort rather than cover. "Terra, why didn't you tell us that you..." The words couldn't come out of his mouth, so she finished his thought.
"...Still have magic?" She bundled herself in his coat; his scent brushed against her senses calming her more through the vanilla rose fragrance. Her green gaze calmed by continued looking at the sunrise.
"I thought it all disappeared back then, that you were a full human?" He watched her face to make sure he isn't over stepping the conversation.
"Oh Setzer," she sniffled and leaned against him lying her head on his shoulder. "Why didn't it go away? Why didn't it leave my body? Why aren't I normal?"
"Sshh," He hushed her rubbing her shoulder. "Terra...? Terra do you remembered when I told you about my airship? My... need to fly?" She nodded. "Well it's destiny now, my destiny, just like all the others have their destinies... and having magic, being part Esper... is yours'..."
She shook her head, wiping the steady stream of tears.
"You're afraid," he continued to say. "but you know in your heart that you're not. To live as you are, as you're meant to... it's all anyone ever hopes for. You'll overcome your fear of being different, you'll embrace it that you're unique.. You can do it."
Terra began to straighten herself up as it sank in. "You're right, I can do it. And, if I believe I can- if you guys believe I can?" She said moving herself away from him taking the warmth in his heart that she had provided him.
"We do," the gambler replied with a smile then he glanced over his shoulder making sure no one was watching, and he gave her a quick kiss on the cheek then stood up. "Now, I have to be off. See you, Terra." He ran a distance but she called out to him.
"Wait!"
Setzer stopped and turned around.
"What about your coat?!" She asked.
"Keep it!" He called back, waving as he left.
She smiled to herself yanking it on tighter. 'Setzer?'
She had a thought back to the day the world was coming to an end, they were scared- the air ship had broken in half from a blast, and he tried to save her, he held on as tight as he could but they were both blown off. Why hadn't she kept a hold of his hands? Terra stood up and began to walk back to the airship with the others; her hand upon her cheek where a kiss is being held onto.
In Thamasa.
"I made it," Relm said relaxing. "and not a scratch on me." She laughed happily. Running her Grandpa's house, she shoved the door open in a hurry. "Grandpa!?" She shouted up the stairs. "You awake?!" She stomped noisily as she ran down the hall. "Grandpa...?" He was asleep, his Matron looked over at him then her and silenced the child.
"Is he alright?" Relm asked and the woman nodded, but it seemed forced along with a smile. Relm walked over to the bed and stared down at him, he didn't look very healthy to her. His skin is pale, very pale, and he was hardly breathing.
"Oh Gramps..." she was starting to wish she hadn't come here at all and she'd just stayed and fought with the others.
"I'm going out for some medicine, seems like herbs are hard to find now adays, will you watch your grandpa Relm?" The woman asked.
"Uh-huh." She sat down on the chair next to his bed and watched him sleep; as the matron left the room she turned back with a frown at the sight of it then she left. 'I know... you'll be ok, you old geezer.' The girl thought solemnly and patted his fading hand.
There was that nagging feeling again, someone was watching her; and as they moved closer she heard the creak on the stairs making her jump from the start.
"Whose there?!" She jumped up from the stool looking around. "Show yourself, don't make me paint your portrair!" She stared into the darkness, a little scared.
"Wait! Gau no want get hurt from friend, Relm." The boy came from the shadows on all fours.
"Gau," she sighed out. "what are you doing here?"
"Gau run," he began into a story with a flashback to what happened. "Friends get attacked, Gau fall down- roll away, when Gau come back, fight over and friends gone... Gau go back to last places Gau remember, but can't find way in castle. Gau go back to boat place, man take him to Nikeah, Gau see friend Relm, Gau follow her and be here."
"Oh..." She said returning back to her seat by the bed.
"This Relm grandpa, still?" Gau asked looking down over the man in the bed.
"You know I never undertsand you when you talk- at all!" Relm bellowed.
"You mean friend, Gau wish never came, Gau leaving." The boy turned and walked away.
'So go on then,' Relm thought with a slight sniffle. 'I don't need anyone here with mock sympathy for me, no one at all.' She began to cry into the pillow on the bed. A shadow moved behind her in the darkness, had Gau really left?
"Come on you guys. We have to get going..." Edgar yelled to everyone that strayed the camping location. Setzer walked up to Edgar and pulled him away from the group. "What are we going to do about Terra and her secret?" He whispered.
"I'm not sure... we'll have to wait it out I guess, come on, old man." He patted his shoulder and walked away.
They all boarded the airship and began to take off. "Where to?" Setzer asked.
"We should fly around for a while and look for any soldiers that escaped last night... I'm thinking some of them may have gotten away." Edgar said to them sitting down at Setzer's desk.
"Or worse someone was standing around watching the whole thing and they went to tell their new master." Sabin was saying. "I mean, a guy wounded would take awhile but some by stander could easily get there."
They all thought about the possibility that they were going to get ambushed in a nearby location.
"So the question is... What do we do now?" Terra asked her eyes scanned the room for the answer, when she looked at Setzer his attention was out the window, she looked down a little dismayed.
Imperial Vector.
"Sir, we're sorry to report sir but our maps were stolen from the hide out," The figure cocked his head at his soldier, and in a shiver he continued. "the Returners may be on their way to us right now." He backed away hiding his face from what he thought would come next.
The figure just smiled behind the shadows. "You know what to do." A deep, evil voice emerged from it.
"Yes, sir!" The soldier saluted proudly and turned around to alert the other men.
"Oh! And one more thing." A shrill voice followed, and with the push of a button the man had been killed by a blast of fire, shooting from a machine. "Make ready for the attack." It ordered another soldier and he rushed away. "Soon Terra my lovely, very soon."
In the Blackjack II, Locke is in the center of the room fiddling with a pair of dice on the table rolling it three times seeing what it lands on. 'Snake eyes.' He thought. 'Snake eyes.' Again. 'Snake eyes, what are these fixed?' The thief picked them up and squinted through the red coloring.
'Now's my chance,' Celes thought walking away from the group to be near Locke. "Hi, Locke." She said getting next to him and taking a piece of dice from his hand.
"Oh, hey Celes," he replied with a bright smile. "Your group thing go okay?"
"Well we lost Relm and Shadow." She mumbled out then smiled at him. 'Just say it.' She coached herself. 'You know he likes you.' She had a flash of the Opera House performance she had done, when he'd seen her in that dress and made him blush.
"Conference." Edgar announced steering everyone to a table.
They pulled up a chair yup sitting on either sides of the table in the group they were assigned to, and Edgar sat in the middle of the table at the end.
"Well, we so far know that we've been found out... We know where their bases are. The likelihood of the maps being fake is at a low percent rate." Edgar was saying and being interrupted by Locke.
"Well, we could have acquired a map of places marked where they've searched for us.
Edgar gave him a look and continued. "They could alert their boss and be on us, so report. What did your group accomplish? How far ahead are we in this thing?" He looked to the left where Sabin, Setzer, and Celes were sitting.
"Well to be precise, we uh..." Sabin began and ended weakly. "we lost Shadow and Relm from the start." He shrugged.
"How could you lose them?!" Edgar exploded in panic. "Shadow, sure, he can take care of himself, but Relm- she's a little girl."
"Hey! Don't you go starting in on us, we noticed that Gau isn't exactly with you either!" Sabin shot back.
"Touché." Edgar mumbled. "Well, I guess that's another matter, then. I'm sure they're very capable of taking care of themselves." They lost the tension that had just passed and eased back into conversation.
"Have you found anything out, secured any areas?" The king questioned them.
"Setzer, pay attention." Celes ordered. "Give him the maps."
"Do you hear a buzzing sound?" The gambler asked ignoring her completely.
"I don't hear anything." Edgar said.
"That's you're ship, man. You think you'd be used to it by now." Locke said trying to rush the conference.
Setzer tossed them the maps and walked away to go on the top deck. Edgar reached for them and rolled them open; Locke was the first one over to see them. "Alright, let's have a look." They leaned across the table for a look at the map.
'I know what my ship sounds like, and that awful buzzing is something else.' Setzer thought as he reached the ladder climbing to the deck, when he got out there he saw nothing, and it was quiet. "...!?" His senses were up and then came the attack!
Down below. "Look at this little red 'X' under Vector, sirs... What doths thou think it means?" Cyan asked pointing to it.
"Must be the main base, it has to be," Locke was saying moving around to get closer. "You think maybe we should go there and check it out?"
"Wouldn't hurt." Edgar said.
"Whoa!" Their yells went up.
"Setzer!" Sabin was shouting into the air. "Keep this thing straight!" The next rumble felt more like an impact then air turbulence.
"What's going on up there?" The twins say the same, but, not together.
Setzer flew the ship faster through the skies, he slid away from the control panel and walked to the point of the ship, accessing the situation. Moving his sleeve he waved his hand over his slot watch summoning a command but they fired!
The gambler jumped out of the way getting his hand burned. "Ah!" He moved his sleeve up reaching for his watch again but... "Damn, it's broken." He said to himself and he threw it off. "Can't do it by hand."
"Then how's about some assistance?" Locke said, Setzer turned to see the group standing behind him.
"Am I ever glad to see you guys, my watch is..." His words froze as he felt a familiar vibration run through him. 'Couldn't be?' He thought.
The others had gone into battle already and, so far so good. Terra freely used her magic on the Skyfires. She summoned heat blast after fireball. The blast knocked out at least two and had taken some damage on one.
"I'm gonna miss you." Locke said to his Hawke eye tossing it into one of the robots vents knocking it out of the sky, it does not return to him having gotten stuck in the thick metal it pierced. "Party time!" The thief shouted.
Sabin used his Blitz along side Cyan, his Fire Dance taking out the one guy Terra had damaged to finish the job, the dance does size-able damage to others. The flying robots aimed and fired breaking a hole in the ship's deck, two more opened fire and it knocked against Celes's shield causing her to go flying against the railing. "Uh!"
"You alright, Celes?" Edgar asked running to assistance, he pulled out his new Bio Blaster shooting acid sludge through the sky landing on two of the robots.
With out warning everyone felt revived, they looked to Terra but she shrugged shaking her head. They figured it was just a sudden burst of energy and kept fighting. Setzer tossed a full deck off cards at one of the Sky Fires, the sharp edge cut through the metal knocking it out of the air. Without warning a herd of Chocobo's flew into the air at the Sky Fires, but gave no damage to the machines.
"Setzer, what's going on?!" Edgar shouted over the commotion.
"I'm not sure," He was saying, tossing another deck of cards. "But I think my slot may be malfunctioning and all the attacks are coming out." Setzer quickly dodged a blast.
Having not used her magic to do battle for some time, the Esper girl was hesitant to test her merit, but Terra cast a stronger attack a Flaming Meteor Shower. A fire shower came crashing down on the robots taking them out in droves, but more kept coming. The atmosphere shifted and Setzer's 7-Flush came up through the sky blasting them to bits, but the robots kept returning.
"There's just no end to these guys!" Edgar said changing to his new Spit Drill.
Setzer looked around feeling the attack welling up inside of him. "You guys, get down!" Shouted the pilot.
Everything had gone in slow motion and explosions burst in air, not just on the rest of the robots, but on his ship's engines. It hit Edgar's weapons as well. The sky turned red and the ship began to fall...
