Iruka onna no ko: [*Still playing WipeOut*]

NeoEarthPrincess: [*Acts like Devon's sister* I can leave
if you want me to.]
Iruka onna no ko: [*Twitch*]
Iruka onna no ko: [*Wishes Dev's sister would just leave
her alone*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Big, stupid grin*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Chuckles*]
Iruka onna no ko: [Go ahead and repeat.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]
Iruka onna no ko: [I'm gonna finish this race. ^_^;]
Iruka onna no ko: [Actually, I'm going to leave it paused
and have music play.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]

NeoEarthPrincess: Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Were
you?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Yes. I wished for Zidane to give
you my greetings and to tell you that you did a fine job of
chasing me.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Until he outsmarted you,
apprently. *Chuckles*

NeoEarthPrincess: Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Were
you?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Yes. I wished for Zidane to give
you my greetings and to tell you that you did a fine job of
chasing me.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Until he outsmarted you,
apprently. *Chuckles*
Iruka onna no ko: [Stupid mother.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [o.O;]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: I see.
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Watching warily behind from
behind Steiner*
Iruka onna no ko: [I'm going to finish this scene up really
fast 'cause you have next to nothing to do.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Looks a little annoyed about
the fact that she was outsmarted*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *On the bottom of the stairs,
waiting for Kuja, feels bad about leaving him like that*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Turns his attention back to
Zidane* I won't be here for much longer. Can I browse
your market without fear of being arrested?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I think so... *looks nervously
at Garnet, then to Freya*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Frowning*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Frowning at Kuja, gripping the
pointy end of her spear*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Nods* I'll be quick. If there is
anything more that you wish to say to me, you will have to
find your own time to come talk to me. As I said earlier, I
will not return here.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *nods*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Mutter* Good...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Bows, not giving any hints that
he heard Freya* Good day, your majesties.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Resists the urge to chuck her
spear tip at Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja; *Turns, pushing hair over his
shoulder, similar to leaving Burmecia the first time, when,
really, only Freya saw him*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Blinks, flashback*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Walks from the room, hips
swaying, as they always do*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Free hand goes to her head*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Watches Kuja, wishing that
that could have been a more pleasant encounter*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Goes down the stairs and to the
courtyard*
NeoEarthPrincess: [<.<;; *Stays clean* >.>;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *At the bottom of the stairs
still*
Iruka onna no ko: [Eh? o.O?]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Dun worry 'bout it.]
Iruka onna no ko: [Okay.]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Stops when he reaches
Andrew* I'm done.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Nods*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I'm sorry, Kuja...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: For what?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Wraps his arms around
Kuja's waist* Leaving like that...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Smiles*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Wonders what Kuja's
smiling at*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: It's alright. You knocked sense
into my head.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Nods, small smile*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Listening at the top of the
stairs, out of sight*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I still wish I could have been
there...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Wish I coulda "knocked sense"
into him twenty-two years ago...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Don't worry about it.
NeoEarthPrincess: [I wanna knock a brick into him...
^^]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small nod*
Iruka onna no ko: [*Chuckles*}
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ... Can we go now? I wanna
get out of these uncomfortable pants...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Sighs quietly*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Smiles* Yes, we can go now.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Pulls away from Kuja and
pulls the pants down*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Chuckles*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Thanks...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: It's not funny...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Has never heard him laugh
like that* o.O
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I find it to be.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I don't...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Come. We have shopping to do.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grumbles and turns around,
starts walking and stops, pulling his pants down in the back,
grunting*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Chuckles as he follows Andrew*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Turns and goes back into the
thrown room*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grumbles and keeps
walking* it's not funny, Kuja.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Oh, but it is.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Why?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Why couldn't you people have
been nicer to him?
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Cowering behind Steiner*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: He is a killer, Zidane, what did
you expect?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods in agreement with the
canary*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Because you look so irritated.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Yes, but...you don't
understand...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: What don't we understand?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grunts and keeps walking*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He's...changed...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: No, he hasn't. *Gestures
angrily at Freya* He snapped her spear in half! How is that
a change from how he used to be?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods angrily, clutching her
broken spear*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...I'm going to have him
arrested.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: No, you won't.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: He is a danger to my people.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: No, he isn't!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Zidane, he is and you know it.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...He isn't...
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: He is. You just don't want him
to be.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: She is right, Zidane.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: But...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Steiner, please see to it that
he is captured.
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: And the boyfriend?
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...Him as well.
NeoEarthPrincess: [;.;]
NeoEarthPrincess: [PK I will save them! ^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Bows* Yes, your majesty.
*Takes off, calling together his stupid Pluto Knights*
Iruka onna no ko: [LOL]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: And how many people are we
going to put in danger by trying to capture him?
NeoEarthPrincess: Plutonian Knights: *Assemble in front
of the stairs*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He'll only become angry.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Climbs onto SD, not waiting
for Kuja*
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Timidly* Perhaps...
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Hopes she doesn't throw Vivers too
OOC*]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Mounts, taking his seat in front
of Andrew, sitting side-saddle*
Iruka onna no ko: [*Shrug*]
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: Well, what if we wait until he
attacks? He really only mad one hostile move, which was
against Freya's spear. He could have easily wiped us all out
if he wanted...
NeoEarthPrincess: [<.<;]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Yeah!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sitting how he would
normally, slides his arms around Kuja's waist and slides
Kuja's legs open with his hands, slowly rubbing the inside of
them*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Grins and leans back against
Andrew*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: We can't just do nothing! What
if we kidnap the boyfriend? We can hold him until Kuja is
done.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles and leans his head
against Kuja's*
Iruka onna no ko: [Oooo, that's a good idea...]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^]
Iruka onna no ko: [Hold on a minute.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]
Iruka onna no ko: [Back.]
Iruka onna no ko wants to directly connect.
Iruka onna no ko is now directly connected.
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Kidnap!? That's not how I do
business!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: We will not kidnap anyone!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...It sounds like a good plan,
Zidane. Then we know he won't harm anyone.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: It used to be how you did
business, if I'm not mistaken, I recall, you kidnapped the
queen and that's how you met.
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Sighs*
Iruka onna no ko: [Good line, I had forgotten about that.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Sankyuu. ^^]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: If you ask me, he's going to be
even more dangerous if we kidnap his boyfriend!
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Bows*]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Think about it! He won't play
nice!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: But, he won't harm anyone for
fear we harm his boyfreind.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: But will we?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: It'd be up to Lady Beatrix or
Steiner.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: They'd kidnap him.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Are we to tell him that if he
doesn't cooperate, we'll kill his boyfriend?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: No. Tell him his boyfriend may
not be too happy, or something like that. Not an actual
threat.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: But...
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: It'd be his choice if the boy
was harmed, not ours.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: And, if he's not hostile, as ou
claim him not to be, he should understand. Don't you think?
NeoEarthPrincess: [Ack! O.O]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Pulls a Rei and spills Pop on her
shirt* <.<;;]
NeoEarthPrincess: [�.�;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He came here without hostility
and we treated him like an enemy! Now he will be hostile!
Iruka onna no ko: [LOL]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Shut up.. *Grumbles and feels like a
slob* <.<;;]
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Then we should arrest him if
he's going to be hostile, shouldn't we?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: But how are we going to keep
him arrested?!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Stops the argueing* ...We
will kidnap his boyfriend and tell Kuja that if he harms
anyone we will, in turn, harm his boyfriend.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: That won't work.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: And why not?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Then he'll be sure to blow us
all up.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Along with his boyfriend.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: We'll threaten to slit the boy's
neck.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: But who will be the one to hold
the knife?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: I will.
NeoEarthPrincess: [<.<;]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Freya...
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Said that a little too quickly*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Yes?
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Has a migrain* >.<]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I...This isn't going to work...
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Only because you don't want it
to.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: If we mess with him, he'll just
blow us all up...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I think we should just leave
him alone.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Along with his boyfriend. He
won't, Zidane.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: And if he destorys
Alexandrian, like he did Clerya?
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Didn't spell those right* -.-;]
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: He almost leveled Alexandria
with Bahamut! Who says he won't do that again!?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He doesn't have control of
Bahamut.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: How do you know!? He could
have something worse!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: What if he Trances!?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Cowers, remembering last
time*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: If he Trances, then we'll all be
killed, including his boyfriend, wherever he may be.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: You've been in a Trance
before, Dagger, you know how you lose all sense of logic.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He won't care where his
boyfriend is.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Then he will blow us all to
pieces. No doubt.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I say we just leave him alone
and do our best not to anger him.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: I say we kidnap his boyfriend
and keep him until Kuja is ready to leave here.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: That won't work.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Because you don't want it to.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Kuja will not cooperate like we
want him to...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: You're overruled, Zidane.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: But...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Steiner, take Beatrix and
Freya and kidnap the boy. Bring him to the castle
dungeons. Tell Kuja that if he makes any mistakes, his
boyfriend will be in danger.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Shakes his head*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Bows* Yes your majesty.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods* I'll need a new spear,
if I could.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I'm sorry, Zidane, but this is
the only way.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: No, it isn't...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Yes, we'll get you a new one.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods and bows*
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: Zidane, sir...? At least Kuja will
be okay, right?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Slumps onto his throne,
frowning sadly*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...Perhaps.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I don't want to have to hurt
him again...
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: No one will be hurt unless Kuja
makes them be hurt... And if he's changed, like you said,
everyone will be okay.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: But if he freaks, like I think he
will, we're going to have to step in...
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Nods slowly and steps back,
fingering his staff, which he hasn't used in battle in a long
time*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I don't want him to be hurt
again...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: You weren't the one watching
the last breathes of life leave his mouth!
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Looks down and steps back*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He told me that he was too
late! Too late!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Damnit, he told me that he
was too late to experience life to it's fullest!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I don't want to kill him again!
He's only twenty-two, did you hear that?!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Didn't you see him!? He
smiled! A real smile! It was real! It wasn't leering or
sarcastic! It was real!
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Slowly walking backward, away
from Zidane*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He's finally been able to enjoy
life! He was given a second chance, damnit!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Zidane, calm down.
NeoEarthPrincess: [Mention him saying he loved Andrew,
perhaps?]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Realizes that he's standing
up*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Sits*
Iruka onna no ko: [Ooo, good.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Why do you think he was given
a second chance? It wasn't to kill more people.
Iruka onna no ko: [Have Freya, Steiner, and Beatrix
already taken off?]
NeoEarthPrincess: [... Sure, why not?]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: It was to try again. To live life
like we're living it right now. And he is...didn't you hear
him...? He said he loved that guy!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Zidane, if what you say is true,
then he has weakened immensely.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...No, not necessarily.
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: Maybe he was lying... He did lie
before... And how could he love another someone of the
male species...?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Shrugs helplessly*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I don't know...
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Keeps bringing up points, both for
and against Kuja* <.<;]
Iruka onna no ko: [Nice job, thank you.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Nods* Sankyuu.. ^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I don't think he's lying...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: But you don't know that for
sure.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Yes, I do.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: How?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I...I don't know...
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: Uhh...
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: Mrs. Garnet, ma'ma? Perhaps
you're doing to Kuja as Zidane may be doing to Kuja...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...How do you mean?
Iruka onna no ko: [He'd call her Dagger.]
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: Perhaps you think him to be evil,
becasue that's what you want to believe. he could have
changed...
NeoEarthPrincess: [He would?]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Wasn't sure about that* Alright.]
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: He could have. But there's no
telling what he'll do, even if he has changed.
Iruka onna no ko: [*Nod nod*]
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Small nod*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I don't want to take chances.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I want to protect my people. I
couldn't last time and I don't want that to happen again.
The lives of these people still haven't completely recovered
from that loss.
NeoEarthPrincess: [Should I have him call her "Mrs.
Dagger"?]
Iruka onna no ko: [No, just Dagger.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: But, Dagger... No one has really
noticed Kuja, yet...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: That doesn't matter, he's still a
threat.
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: And a big one.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: But if we just leave him alone,
he won't do anything...
NeoEarthPrincess: [He's not that big... Actually, he's
kinda small.. <.<;;]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: There is a reason he came
back and it isn't to hurt anyone...
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: You can't be sure of that,
Zidane...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Has his eyes closed, slumped
in one corner of his throne, elbow on the arm of the chair,
hand holding up his forehead*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Slowly shakes his head*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I'm sorry, Zidane.
Iruka onna no ko: [Mmkay, scene switch.]
Iruka onna no ko: [^_^]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: So how shall we go about
doing this?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: First we need to find them.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Um, er, flying the dragon over
the lake sperating the castle from the lake*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Yeah, that sounds good*
Iruka onna no ko: [^_^;;]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;;;;;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: And they're already taken off
for the market, if that's even where they're going.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods* You have airships,
don't you?
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Nods*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: It's still early in the day, they
may decide to get their supplies now.
NeoEarthPrincess: Frya: We can use an airship to look
for them.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: If they leave the city, yes.
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: I will send my Knights out to
scan the city streets.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Those bumbling fools? Why
don't we have some Alexandrian Soldiers go look for them?
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: They are already posted
around the city anyway.
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods*
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^; Poor Knights...]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Have your men pass orders on
to the soldiers. Spread them out.
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Salutes and clunks off to do
so*
Iruka onna no ko: [Yup.]
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Sighs* How can you put up
with those bumbling fools, Beatrix?
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: I don't. I let Steiner do it.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: How can you put up with
Steiner?
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Smiles* You would be
surprised.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: I am...
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Small chuckle* Now, once
we do locate Kuja and his boyfriend, how will we go about
kidnapping the boy?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: I'm not sure. He didn't look
too bright...
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: But he did look loyal.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: I don't believe that anyone
can be so loyal to a man such as Kuja.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: I agree...
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Unless forced, of course...
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: All of Kuja's followers were
either soulless or he created them.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: I think the boy falls under one
of those two categories. In any case, we can question him
once we get a hold of him.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: That will be interesting...
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods* Do what you want with
him. I could care less.
NeoEarthPrincess: [could = couldn't*]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Nods* If we can catch him
while he's a distance away from Kuja, it would be easiest.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods* So, if they are
shopping, as they say they will be, that would be a good
time.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Yes.
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Comes back* I have told the
Knights to spread through the city to tell soldiers to keep
watch for Kuja and the boy.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods at Steiner*
Iruka onna no ko: [BRB]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]
Iruka onna no ko: [Okay, I'm back.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]
Iruka onna no ko: [I had to work out sleeping
arrangements with the girls.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Nods*]
Iruka onna no ko: [I got stuck in the rec room.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Chuckles* Aww...]
Iruka onna no ko: [Yeah.]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: What of his dragon? Is it
necessary to ground him by capturing the dragon?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: I'm not sure...
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: And is it dangerous?
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: I've never seen it fight,
so-to-speak.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: I don't remember his dragon
being dangerous. I remember it listened to him, though...
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: If his dragon is like any of the
dragons that tried to keep the Invincible from entering
Terra, it's dangerous.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: True. And, as Lady Freya
pointed out, it does follow Kuja's orders.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freys: *Nods* Meaning it could be
more dangerous.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Then it sounds as if we must
also confiscate the dragon.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: What if we just wait until they
are shopping? The King may be upset if we do anything to
the dragon. He's already uite upset about his boyfriend
being taken into custody...
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: I hate to say it, but we are
following orders of the Queen.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods* Yes, but she did not
say we could do anything to the dragon.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: She gave no orders pertaining
to the dragon. Either we make the decision or we ask for
her directions.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: It matters not to me. As long
as the boy is taken care of.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: We will leave the dragon. If
he leaves Alexandria at any time, in any way, we will
threaten his boyfriend.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods* Alright.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: That way he will not have the
chance to retaliate.
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Nods*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods and smiles* I see why
you are head of the Alexandrian army, Lady Beatrix.
NeoEarthPrincess: [Ooooo.. She's hittin' on her... ^^;;;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Smiles and makes a small
bow* Indeed.
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Also smiles* Truely gifted
she is in the art of war.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Lands the dragon in one of the
many squares of Alexandria, the one, in fact, where he
stood and watched Bahamut blow up Alexandria so long
ago*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Reluctantly pulls his hands
away from Kuja* I can't say your name, correct?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Correct.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Nods* You need a name,
then.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Was enjoying the thigh rub and
makes a mental note to have Andrew continue later*
NeoEarthPrincess: [Terrance? ^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: [What about just "Terra"?]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Kuja wouldn't like that...]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: [True.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*That's the whole reason she
suggested "Terrance"* ^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: "Love" will do nicely. *Smiles*
Iruka onna no ko: [How's that? ^_^]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles* Love?
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Chuckles*]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Yes. Any better ideas?
Iruka onna no ko: [How about Rinoa? Aeris. Tifa?]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles* Love will do nicely.
NeoEarthPrincess: [LOL!]
Iruka onna no ko: [*Snicker*]
Iruka onna no ko: [Barret! ^_^;;;]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Laughs*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Then he could ask Cloud out!]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^]
Iruka onna no ko: [LOL!!!!!!]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Good. *Dismounts SD*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Slides of the dragons back
after Kuja* What can I do?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: You can follow me.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles* I do anyways.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Pats the nose of the dragon*
Take off.
Iruka onna no ko: Dragon: *Does so and flies off,
gathering the "ooo"s and "ah"s of many of the citizens*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Realizes how much of the
old Kuja he can see in Kuja when he's with SD, doesn't like
that*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Used to the dragon*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *holding the leather bag that he
got when he baught Andrew's clothing*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Planning on using that for
carting around his baught supplies* First, an item shop
needs to be found.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Tugs on the pants* Can I
change back into my old clothes, first?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Stop fussing, Andrew, you can
deal with it for another hour. *Starts walking, looking
around the various stalls, booths, and shops for items*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grumbles and pulls on the
pants once more before following Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: And if you can avoid doing that,
it would attract less attention.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grunts and pulls on them
again* I don't care if I attract attention. These things are
really uncomfortable...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Sighs* Shall I get you another,
larger pair, Andrew?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Why can't I just wear my old
pants?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Because they aren't Gaian.
NeoEarthPrincess: PK II: *Spots Kuja and runs to a
Burmecian Soldier, points to Kuja and tells her that she's
supposed to look for him*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: So?
Iruka onna no ko: [-.-;]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Soldier: *Sighs and tells the Knight to
go report the finding*
NeoEarthPrincess: PK II: *Nods and bumbles off*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Sighs* So I don't want people
staring at you.
Iruka onna no ko: Soldier: -.-;
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grins* Why?
Iruka onna no ko: [*Couldn't help that one*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Giggling*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Doesn't blame you*]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Jealous?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small chuckle*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Because I don't want any airhead
girls to try to take you from me, though you'd enjoy that,
wouldn't you?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grins* Come on, Kuja.
Can I have my pants back?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: You can have your pants off
when we get back to the Palace.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: What about my boxers?
Could I wear those?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grining widely at Kuja's
proposal*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja; *Still has his pants stuffed in the
bottom of his bag* Yes, you may wear your boxers.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles* Good. *Stops*
Hand 'em over.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Looks at Andrew* No.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Blinks* Why not?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: You said I could...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Because I won't have you
carrying them before we get to a place where you can
change.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I'm going to get you a larger pair
of pants.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Can't I just wear my
boxers?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: No!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Why not?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Heading in the direction of the
clothing shop*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Ignores the people who are
staring at them* But Ku-, err, Love!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sighs and stops walking*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Sighs, frusterated, not used to
being on Gaia and being talked back to at the same time*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Also stops and looks back at
Andrew*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grumbles and pulls his
pants down, not all the way, just lower, although the GM
wouldn't mind... ^^;; walks toward Kuja slowly*
Iruka onna no ko: [Did you ever think of how "Every
Breath You Take" describes Andrew stocking people all the
time? *Shudder*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [No... <.<;;]
Iruka onna no ko: [*Shudders again*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Doesn't know what you're talking
about*]
Iruka onna no ko: [It's a song. "Every breath you take,
every move you make, I'll be watching you." *Shudder*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Giggles*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Thinks of her Opa when she hear
that song* ;.;]
Iruka onna no ko: [*Huggles*]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Sankyuu.. *Huggles back*]
Iruka onna no ko: [Now, with pulling his pants down...is it
just the usual readjustments or is he actually removing
them?]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Readjusting them.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;;;;;;;;;;;;;]
NeoEarthPrincess: [He's not wearing his boxers,
remember?]
Iruka onna no ko: [...Oh, right. ^_^;;;]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: If I buy you a larger pair of
pants, will you wear them?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Without complaining?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I'd rather wear my boxers
and pants.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I know that.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: So, why can't I?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: You can when we get back to the
Palace.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: You said I don't have to wear
them when we get back...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small, impish grin*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Because we're in public.
Correct, I did say that you don't have to wear them.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Can I wear my boxers, at
least? Do you know how not cool this feels?
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Snickers uncontrolably*]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Sigh* Andrew, just wear the
Gaian pants for now, alright? I'll buy a larger pair.
Iruka onna no ko: [Not cool, man...not cool...]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Continues snickering*]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grunts and grumbles*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Would it help at all that I think
you look rather sexy in tight pants?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Looks around the corner and
spots Kuja, leans back around the corner* It's Kuja, alright.
His friend is there, too.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: -.- Not in public, Andrew.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grins* Yeah, yeah... I
know... You and your public thing... *Sighs*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Puts his hands on his hips* You
would think it reasonable to remove my thong in front of all
these people?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grin disappears* Kuja, you
wouldn't... They'd all stare and flock to you and... *Goes
on, grumbling*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Yes, exactly.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: That's different!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Sighs* Do you want me to get
you another pair of pants or not?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: No, it isn't.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: It is too different!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I have nothing under my thong,
you have nothing under those pants. It's the same thing.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Nu uh...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Crosses his arms and
grumbles*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I am quite tired of arguing, let's
just get going, alright?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sighs* Fine...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Thank you. Do you want a new
pair of pants or not?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Remembers Kuja's earlier
statement and shakes his head*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Are you sure?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small nod, readgusts his
pants again*
NeoEarthPrincess: [readjusts*]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Could I persuade you to change
your mind if I told you that I find you sexy no matter what
you wear?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Turns slightly red and looks
down, small grin*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Rolls his eyes and turns to start,
yet again, for the clothing shop*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grumbles and slowly
follows after Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: Now seems to be a good
opportunity.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Not yet. Wait until he's lagged
farther behind Kuja.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods* It's like he wants to
be caught...
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Get those soldiers ready for a
scuffle.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Walking swiftly through the
crowds*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *His rear getting out of Andrew's
sight should be enough to get Andrew to catch up to him*
[-.-;]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Blinks and looks up,
realizes he can't see Kuja and freaks out*
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Chuckles*]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *In fact, hurries up, trying to
see Kuja* Love?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Glances over his shoulder and
comes to a halt, seeing no Andrew* Just like a child...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Looks around*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Love...?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looking around frantically*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Is Kuja out of sight?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Andrew!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Being a typical blonde,
walking away from Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Oh, damn it.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Can't hear Andrew over the
crowds*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Can't hear Kuja over the
crowd* Love?
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Sighs* Of course he gets lost.
Of course.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Starts retracing his steps in the
hopes of finding Andrew*
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Snickers* Leashes are handy.. ^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: ...Kuja is out of sight.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Wondering about, toward
Beatrix, Steiner and Freya, actually*
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;;;;;;;;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *To a nearby soldier* Locate
Kuja and keep an eye on him.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Raises an eyebrow* We could
probably wait here and he'd come to us...
Iruka onna no ko: [-.-; Oh brother.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Alright, let's grab him.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: I'll stay out of your way, Lady
Beatrix. *Steps back, respectfully*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Suddenly makes a turn and
heads away from his soon-to-be captors*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Frowns* He's moving away
from us...
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Follow me. *Leaves their post
and walks to Andrew*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Follows Beatrix, like the
stupid tin can that he is*
Iruka onna no ko: [You can play the soldier that Steiner
ordered to find Kuja.]
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Wasn't sure if she was told as
well, follows anyway*
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies... ^^]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Still walking back to find
Andrew, calling out for him as he does8
NeoEarthPrincess: PK V: *Smiles, more than happy to go
find Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Grabs Andrew's arm* Sir,
you're under arrest.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Blinks and looks at Beatrix*
Let me go. *Tries to pull away from her, instinctively*
Iruka onna no ko: [-.-;;;;;;]
NeoEarthPrincess: PK V: *Thinking about PK I*
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Quite a bit stronger than
most females and keeps her grip on Andrew* I'm afraid
not. Please follow us without a fight and you'll be fine.
NeoEarthPrincess: PK V: *Spots Kuja and follows him*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I don't think so.. LOVE!
HELP!?
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Stands being Beatrix,
fingering his sword hilt*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Stands beside Steiner, new
spear poised*
Iruka onna no ko: [The stupid dult wouldn't use his name,
knowing this is an emergency....]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Nods* -.-;;;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Quiet down, boy. *Violently
yanks Andrew in the direction of the castle lake, towards
Kuja, actually*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: I'll go have a boat ready.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Ack! Hey! Be nice!
NeoEarthPrincess: [-.-;]
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Nods and follows Beatrix*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Thank you, Steiner.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Be nice? *Chuckles*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Tires to pull away from
Beatrix*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Takes off*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: You're a feisty one, aren't
you? *Grins*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Hears that one, head snaps in
the direction*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Starts walking swiftly* Andrew!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Hears Kuja, cries become
more urget and desperate* KUJA!
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Grabs Andrew's mouth and
covers it*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Starts trotting, hearing how he
sounds as if he's in trouble*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Completely stops moving,
lets his legs give way from beneath him*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Stupid kid. Up! *Keeps
Andrew on his feet*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Has the boat ready and is
patiently waiting for Beatrix and Freya to get here*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grunts and doesn't move,
tries to trip Beatrix*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Waves over a soldier*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Kicks Andrew in the side*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: *Hurries to Beatrix's aide*
Yes ma'ma?
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Snaps* Help me!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Screams in pain, sides still
hurt from slightly his earlier wounds*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: *Grabs Andrew's arm and
tries to help Beatrix keep him up*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Blinks at his harsh reaction
and wishes he'd quit making a scene*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Good at making scenes*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Hears the scream and
recognizes it as Andrew's, incredibly worried now*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Runs faster, in Andrew's
general direction* Andrew!?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Waiting to see Kuja*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Screams again, trying to
get Kuja to him*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Starts dragging Andrew to
the boat, a way has been cleared for them by the staring
crowd*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Sees Kuja and rushes to him*
Stop.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Frowns at her and doesn't stop*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *When it doesn't look as if she's
going to move out of his way, he shoves her out of his way
instead*
Iruka onna no ko: she's not going*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Frowns and turns, looking at
him* If you continue, he may be harmed.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Picks herself up, off the
dround and dusts herself off*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Stops dead in his tracks and
turns to face Freya*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Frowning daggers* What have
you done with him?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Looking calmly at him* We're
taking him as a safety. To make sure you don't harm
anyone. You harm anyone, we hamr him. Simple enough.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: By order of the Queen.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: ...You truely are a filthy rat. You
and the rest of your colony. *Turns and keeps going, not
believing her immediate threat*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Frowns* Fine, but Beatrix will
not hesitate.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Following him quickly,
keeping a "safe" distance between the two of them*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Ignores her*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: How could Zidane let them do
this? This isn't like him.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Andrew!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Hears Kuja distantly,
screams as loud as he can*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: What could I have expected?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: He's the same backstabber he
was before.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Again, tries to trip Beatrix*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Hears the scream and breaks
into a full run, finding that Andrew's a greater distance from
him now*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Frowns and runs faster, trying
to keep close to Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Stumbles over Andrew and
kicks him again, in the leg*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Yelps again*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: They're taking him to the castle.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Shit, this wasn't supposed to
happen. He shouldn't have come! Why did I make him
come!?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Outloud, quietly* I should have
come by myself...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Ignores the pain his old
wounds are now giving him, as well as the sore spots
Beatrix is giving him, tries to trip Beatrix again*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Continues running down the
long street, in the general direction of the lake*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Damn boy! *Kicks him, yet
again, and continues to drag him*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja; *Quickly gaining on them*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Andrew!?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Yelps again*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Cringes and give up, drops
all of his weight toward the ground in a final attempt to slow
Beatrix*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Waves over a pair of
soldiers* Get over here!
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: *Accidentally lets Andrew slip
her grasp*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Falls to the ground, on his
butt, with an "Oof!"*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: *Cringes and quickly picks
him back up*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: II and III: *Rush over to
Beatrix, at the same time* Yes, ma'ma?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Panicks when he doesn't hear a
reply from Andrew* Andrew!?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Hears Kuja, yelps*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Grab his feet.
NeoEarthPrincess: Solider II: *Nods and grabs Andrew's
left foot*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier III: *Nods and grabs his right
foot*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Hears the yelp and finds it quite
close, starting to tire of running*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *The four of them now have
him lifted completely off the ground*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Writhes around, trying to
get away from the girls, wouldn't mind this, usually*
NeoEarthPrincess: [-.-;]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Able to cover much more
ground now*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Violently jerks himself
about, trying to get away*
NeoEarthPrincess: All three Soldiers: *Having a difficult
time keeping ahold of Andrew*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Hears yelling and people
turning their heads; runs out to help*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Continues to stay behind
Kuja, afraid of what he might do if she were to pass him*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Forced to come to a stop at a
tight-knit crowd, who are ringed around Beatrix, Andrew,
and the soldiers; tries to hurridly push through them*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Shrieks, sounds like
"Kuja!"*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Move! *Shoves two people out
of his way and breaks into the clearing, stumbling forward*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Continues to violently try to
jerk himself from the soldiers and Beatrix*
Iruka onna no ko: Crowd: *Murmerings among some of
the older citizens, they recognize Kuja's name*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Damn it!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Jumps over the ring of people
and joins Beatrix*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Pulls his sword free and
comes at Kuja with it raised*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Doesn't see this or would
have a fit*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Frowns and blasts Steiner*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Get him in the boat! Hurry it
up!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sees the blast, however,
and stops struggling, looks at Kuja, shrieks "Kuja"*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Flies backwards and quickly
gets to his feet*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Steiner!? *Swears*
NeoEarthPrincess: [Awww...]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Shop shweet... ^^;]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: I swear I'm going to kill him
myself.
Iruka onna no ko: [Yesh. ^^]
NeoEarthPrincess: [^^]
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Small smile* Go ahead, Lady
Beatrix. I'll get the boy onto the boat.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Thank you, Freya. *Leaves
Andrew for Freya and the three soldiers to take care of and
pulls Save the Queen free of its sheith, advancing on Kuja*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Grins and steps up to
Andrew, quickly grabbing his arm*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Flailed his arm about as
soon as it was let go*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Shakes his head* A fruitless
battle, Beatrix, you know I can shatter your body into a tiny,
million pieces.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Slaps Andrew* Come on,
girls. To the boat. *Heads toward the boat*
NeoEarthPrincess: Slodiers: *Nod and comply*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: I'm willing to sacrifice myself if
it means the safety of the Queen and her citizens.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Grins* But how do you know I
won't do this?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Screams again, Freya hit
him on the chest, where an earlier wound had been
inflicted*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Lifts his hand into the air and
his entire body starts to glow red*
NeoEarthPrincess: [-.-;]
Iruka onna no ko: Crowd: *Screaming all about the place
as Kuja begins one of his stunts*
Iruka onna no ko: [*Dark Messenger comes on* XD]
NeoEarthPrincess: [-.-;;;;;;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Pales* Stop! Please, Kuja!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Then let him go!
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Glow gets brighter*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Lifts his head to see Kuja,
since Freya's not covering his mouth* Kuja!
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Moves one foot back, sword
pointed to the sky, and starts to power up a Stock Break
attack*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Frowns and smacks him
again*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Continues to power his own
attack, doesn't fear Beatrix's much at all*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Thrusts her sword forward,
activating the attack* Stock Break!
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *White light flies from the
sword and hits Kuja's body*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: O.O KUJA!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *At the castle balcony,
watching the scuffle from across the small lake*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Shakes his head* This isn't
supposed to happen, damnit!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Watching the fight between
the two soldiers*
Iruka onna no ko: Soldiers: *Evacuating citizens away
from the fight*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Presses his eyes shut and falls
back a step, faultering his own attack*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Smile moves across her face
seeing that she hurt Kuja and that her theory of him being
weak is correct*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Freaks out and starts
flailing about* Kuja! God dammit! He better not be hurt! I
swear I'll kill you, god dammit! *Flails about continuously*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Glow of red isn't as bright as
before*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Frown deepens* Hold him
tightly, girls.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Opens his eyes and the red
glow becomes brighter*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Holding him tightly,
temporarily has stopped moving, trying to get him under
control*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Eyes narrow, prepares for an
onslaught of energy*
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Yells* Freya, tie him up!
Iruka onna no ko: Steiner: *Joins Beatrix's battle with
Kuja*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: I can't! I'm having a hard
enough time holding him down!
Iruka onna no ko: [Oh, this is all so exciting. ^^]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Nods*]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Thrusts his hand forward and
lets fly his attack* Flare! *Red energy flies forward and
hits Beatrix head-on*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Falls to the ground after
flying back a few feet*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Groans and gets to her feet*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Red eyes look up at Steiner,
Beatrix, and Freya* Why couldn't you just leave us alone?
Why can't you understand that I'm not who I used to be?
Iruka onna no ko: [*Dark Messenger plays again* XD]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Is playing DM* ^^;]
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: *Bows, To Zidane* Quickly,
your highness. You are needed. It is urget.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I wasn't planning on killing
anyone. I wasn't going to hurt a single person, rat and
human alike!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Yes, I can see that... *Sighs
and runs off to join the fight against Kuja*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: *Nods and follows him*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Lifts himself into the air*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looks frantic, glad he
wasn't gagged* Kuja!?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I'll kill every last one of you if
that's what it takes to get him back.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Spear poised still, although
her hand is slightly trembling*
NeoEarthPrincess: The Three Soldiers: *Standing
defiantly around Andrew*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Kuja, we'll give him back! Just
cooperate and we'll give him back!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Cooperate?! What do you think I
was doing!?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I wasn't hurting anyone, I wasn't
doing anything wrong!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ... Kuja!?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Hurrying over on one of the
faster boats*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Looks back behind her at the
boat* Get that boat going!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Starts to tremble*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: II: *Nods* Yes, ma'ma!
*Runs to go start the ship*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ... >.<
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I'll kill you all...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Jumps out of his boat* Kuja!
Stop!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Stop? Stop!? Give him back and
I will!
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier II: *Gets the boat started and
drives it toward the castle*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *To Beatrix* I told you! I told
you all! This isn't going to work!
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Yes, it will. We'll make it
work.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Look at him! He's going to
blow us all to pieces because you had to cross his path!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: He would have, anyway.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: That isn't true!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I meant no harm coming here!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: No? Then why do you do this,
now?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Because you took from me the
only thing that is important!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: If you would cooperate, things
would be fine.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I was cooperating! I wasn't
hurting anyone!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: And we weren't planning on
harming him!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: How was I supposed to know that
when I hear him scream?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: You could have started by
listening when I tried explainging it to you.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Speaking rather calmly*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Enough! Give him back to me!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: No.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I'm trying to cooperate!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Why can't you understand!?
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: You can cooperate by letting
us keep him with us. As a guest at the castle.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Enough of this, bring the boy
back.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Your highness.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *To Zidane**
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: If you won't give him back, I'll
take him by force.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Proving you are the monster
you have always been!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I am not a monster!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Prove it by letting us keep him
at the castle.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: He will not be harmed.
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: I don't believe you.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Zidane would not allow it.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Freya, that is enough.'
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Frowns but silences herself*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Beatrix, bring him back, this
has gone too far.
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: ...I cannot do that, I follow the
Queen's orders.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Looks at Beatrix with disgust*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Flies forward, towards the lake*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Damnit.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Hurls her spear at him*
NeoEarthPrincess: [2:34! ^^;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Gets hit in the right calf,
screams with pain, flight faulters*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: O.O Freya!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Small frown, her accuracy not
as good as it has been* Yes, Majesty?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He's definately going to kill us
all now!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: He's already killed all of my
people.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: And that's reason to let him
destroy Alexandria!?
NeoEarthPrincess: [Didn't he...? <.<;]
Iruka onna no ko: [Pretty much.]
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: You can stop him, King.
Iruka onna no ko: [He caused it.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Nods* Okies.]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Pulls the spear free of his calf*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Crying with pain at having a
hole in his leg*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: II: *Parks the boat*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Turns and lifts Freya into the
air*
NeoEarthPrincess: The Three Soldiers: *Starts to unload
Andrew*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: O.O Kuja, stop!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja; *Trying to stay steady in the air*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Eyes fly open, fear the same
thing that happened to her spear is going to happen to her*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Flies at Freya, spear up over his
head*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Watching Kuja mutely,
doesn't fight the girls* Can I just watch him, please...?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Quickly induces a Trance,
spends much of his training time practicing the process*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Cringes, but looks Kuja
straight in the eyes, fearlessly*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Look at one another*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Changes course at the last
second and rams the spear through her own calf*
Iruka onna no ko: calf = thigh
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier III: *Small nod*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Shrieks in pain, hand flies to
her thigh*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: *Keeps Andrew's right arm
secruly in her own*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Floats back and flings Freya
down into the water of the lake*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier II: *Does the same with his
left*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *All Tranced and spiffy now,
flies up into the air* Kuja, stop!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Holds her breath, sees she's
heading for water*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Haul Andrew inside
quickly*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Stares at Kuja, doesn't fight
them*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Watching from the balcony,
has her staff in her shaking hands, watching her husband
chasing after her sword enemy*
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Standing beside Garnet* Are
you alright, Dagger?
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I will be once he is dead.
*Lifts the staff* Gaurdian Bahamut! Aid me in protecting
my kingdom and true love!
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Cringes and steps back,
watching Dagger*
NeoEarthPrincess: [Ooooo... Bahamut... XD]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Doesn't see Garnet, nears the
castle*
Iruka onna no ko: Bahamut: *Makes its wonderful
appearence as it did on the game and takes off after Kuja,
with a roar*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja; *Gasps when he hears the roar
and spins around*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sees Bahamut through a
stained glass window* What on Earth...?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Eyes open wide when he sees
Bahamut*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: What is she doing!?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: No...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Starts to glow red* I will not go
down like this!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Finally breaks the surface of
the water, facing away from Bahamut*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: *Swims to Freya*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Gasping for breath*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: I gotcha. *Helps her to
shore*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: Thanks...
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: Not a problem. *Gets the
spear out of Freya's thigh*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Leg is hurting like hell* Flare
Star! *Lets fly an attack on Bahamut*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Gets out of the attack's way*
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Does her best not to scream,
suddenly sees Bahamut* What is going on...?
Iruka onna no ko: Bahamut: *Takes no damage from the
attack, what-so-ever*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Eyes open wide*
Iruka onna no ko: Beatrix: The Queen summoned
Bahamut.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Small nod*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Stop behind Garnet with
Andrew, unsure where to bring him*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Flies past Kuja and to the
balcony, where he figures Dagger is* What are you doing!?
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Don't interrupt her*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Turns away from Zidane and
to the soldiers* Take him to the dungeon.
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Grasping her leg, doesn't ask
any further questions*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Nods*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: No! We're going to give him
back!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Your highness? What did I
ever do to you?
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Drag him off*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Starts to accelerate himself
backwards, away from Bahamut*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Puts up a fight this time*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Dagger, I'm going to have to
interfere.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I can see that you already
have, Zidane.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Send Bahamut back!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet; Not until it kills Kuja.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: WHAT!?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: No!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Flails about best he can*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Continue to try and carry
him off*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Turns to the soldiers* Get
him down there!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Please, stop!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: You- you can't kill him! He
hasn't done anything!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I will kill him. He is a threat.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Please, for god sake.. I love
him, can't you see! >.<
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Try to get Andrew to the
dungeon*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: He has seduced you, boy!
*Turns back to Zidane*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: No, he hasn't!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane; Listen to yourself,
Dagger...what's happened to you...?
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Nothing has happened to me.
He is a murderer and a danger to my people.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Really mad* That's the old
Kuja, dammit!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He's only a threat because you
provoked him!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Freaks out on the soldiers*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He's right! Kuja has changed!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: You don't know that for sure!
NeoEarthPrincess: Solider III: *Falls backward a step*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I do!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He didn't kill Freya, did he!?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He had the perfect opportunity
to kill her and he didn't! The one that was the nastiest to
him!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I'm the one that wakes with
him in the middle of the night when he has nightmares about
killing people! And he's right! Kuja could have killed you at
anytime he wished!
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Has a horrible urge to hug Kuja*
x.x;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Get that twit to the dungeon!
Iruka onna no ko: [*Always has the urge to hug Kuja*
^_^]
NeoEarthPrincess: [x.x;;]
Iruka onna no ko: [*has the urge to plunge a spear
through Garnet*]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Don't you get it, Dagger!?
They're like us! They love each other!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: They are not like us! He kills
people!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Yells angrily* And look what
you're about to do!!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Suddenly breaks down into
tears, shrieks with all his might* KUJA!
NeoEarthPrincess: [Aww...]
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Face is suddenly covered with
grief*
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Gonna start crying*]
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Looks past Zidane and to
Kuja*
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Stops trying to fight with
Andrew*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Just in time to see Bahamut
attack Kuja with an onslaught of fireballs*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sinks to the floor in tears*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Can't see Kuja through his
tears, thank goodness*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Screams as he tries to protect
himself*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Unfourtunaley can hear
Kuja, head snaps up* KUJA!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Follows Garnet's wide-eyed
gaze and his mouth drops open*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Look at what you're doing!
Look at what you're causing!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: You're tearing them apart!
NeoEarthPrincess: Freya: *Staring at Kuja with
wide-eyes, can hear Andrew from across the lake*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Slowly starts to sink down
towards the water*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Shakes his head with disgust
at Garnet and flies to Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Bahamut: *Makes its exit: unfortunatly,
eidolons only perform once per summoning, then take off*
NeoEarthPrincess: ViVi: *Staring at Dagger in shock
from behind a curatin*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Grabs Kuja and flies with him
towards the castle*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: Don't touch me! *Starts to
weakly flail*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Calm down, Kuja, I'm going to
take you to him.
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldiers: *Step back from andrew,
allowing him room, thinking him not to be a threat*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja; *Continues to flail, tears spilling
from his eyes*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Kuja, stop!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Tears continue to cascade
down his face, hunched over*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Can't carrying him like this
and knows he'll drop into the water like a rock if he lets go
of him, so has no choice but to knock him unconscious and
does to by kicking Kuja's wounded leg*
NeoEarthPrincess: [>.<]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Screams*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Flinches through the scream*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Head snaps up* KUJA!
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Passes out, due to extreme
pain, and falls limp*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Carries the dead weight to
the balcony and lands*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Detranced on the way over*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sees Kuja's lim pbody in
Zidane's arms* KUJA! *Tries to get up to go to him, but
can't*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Staring at Kuja with anxiety
and grief all over her face*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Carries Kuja past Garnet*
Untie him!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looks up at Garnet, hatred
on his facce* You killed him... Are you happy now?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Hurry it up!
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: *Hurries and unties him*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He isn't dead, he's
unconscious.
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier II and III: *Don't move*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Stop, stop, don't rush at me!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Anticipating Andrew's running
at him*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sniffles and doesn't move*
Look at him... He's dead... That bitch killed him for no
reason... He didn't hurt anyone... he was trying to save
me...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Carrying Kuja like anyone
would carry Kuja* [>.>]
NeoEarthPrincess: Soldier: *Steps back, having untied
Andrew*
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Nods*]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Follow me, please. *Starts
down the hallway*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiffles and slowly gets up,
follows him*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Silently follows them*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Wipes the tears from his
face, the thought of being embarrassed at crying not
crossed his mind yet*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Carries Kuja into a guest
bedroom and lies him on the bed*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Stops at the door and
watches Zidane*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Stands at the doorway,
watching, grasping her staff lethally*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Looks at Andrew and jerks
his head to Kuja* Come'ere.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Glares at Garnet hatefully
then slowly walks over to Zidane* What?
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Swallows under Andrew's
glare*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Sit. You're going to stay here
until he wakes up. You'll be the first he'll want to see when
he does.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ... *Slowly sits on the bed, at
Kuja's waist*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: He wanted to see you...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: In the mean time, Dagger,
you're going to heal his leg.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I...me?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: She's not coming near him.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Frowns at Zidane*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Doesn't hear Andrew* Yes,
you are. Get over here.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: She's going to make up for
what she did by healing him.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Stands* No.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I can't heal him, he's...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: You're not going to.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He'll die from loss of blood if
she doesn't.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: And if we were to wait for Eiko
to get here, he'll definately be dead.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Frowns at Dagger* She'll
probably kill him rather than heal him...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I...I can't...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: You can and you will.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Quiet, you, you aren't helping.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Don't talk to me as if you
know me.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Continues to stare at Kuja's
limp body*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: You're right, I shouldn't. But
this is life and death we're talking about. Get over your
pride and let her heal him.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Frowns at Zidane, then
looks at Kuja sadly, sits beside him again and takes Kuja's
limp hand in his own*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Slowly strokes Kuja's hand*
He didn't do anthing to her, yet she killed him...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Watches Andrew and
swallows*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Turns to Garnet* Do it!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Look at him! He's going to die
if you don't!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Slowly lifts Kuja's hand to
his mouth and kisses the back of it*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: You did this to him, you're
going to kill him, Dagger!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Stands up, lying Kuja's
hand on his mid-drift*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Tears start to fall from her
eyes*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I'm sorry...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Then heal him!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Where's a bathroom?
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Eyes closed*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Slowly walks forward*
Iruka onna no ko: [-.-;;;;;;;;;]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Bathroom? Why?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I'm going to be sick...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I mean...
NeoEarthPrincess: [<.<;]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: It's...over there. *Waves
towards one side of the guest room*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Hurries to the bathroom
and closes the door*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Stops at the foot of the bed
and continues to watch Kuja*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *GM is going to be nice and
spare the deatails*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Come on, Dagger.
Iruka onna no ko: [Thank you.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Nods*]
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Laying pathetically on the
bedspread, a tortured look on his face, one that is
particularly painful for anyone to look at*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Feels like she's going to be as
sick as Andrew currently is*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Quite sick*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...Alright, fine.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Thank you, Dagger.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Nods and lifts her staff*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: You probably shouldn't thank
me yet.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Frown* What's that supposed
to mean?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Opens the door* She's
going to kill him...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Doesn't answer him as her
staff starts to glow blue*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Leaning against the
doorframe for support*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Puts a hand on Garnet's
shoulder* Don't disappoint me, Dagger.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Shuts her eyes*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Hasn't she already?
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Whispers* Death. *Shaking,
she waves her wand forward, the blue of her staff suddenly
turning an ugly black and flying to Kuja's body, collecting
over him*
Iruka onna no ko: [>.<]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: O.O STOP!
NeoEarthPrincess: [O.O]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Kuja! *Runs and divs on top
of Kuja, covering his limp body with his own*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Opens her eyes and watches
the blue magic rearrange itself into a deadly-looking grim
reaper*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Hopes the attack hits him
rather than Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: [blue = black]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Doesn't know how magic
works, so isn't sure*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *grim reaper lifts a scyth over
its head*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Eyes and mouth are opened
wide, watching with horror*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Head over Kuja, softyl
kisses Kuja's mouth, whispers* I love you...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Pinches his eyes shut and
braces himself for the attack*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Drops his head to his chest,
can't stand to watch*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: What am I doing!?
NeoEarthPrincess: [I don't know!]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Wants to kick Dagger really hard*
>.<]
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Grim reaper brings its scythe
down over Andrew and Kuja and, unfortunately, it's targeted
to Kuja and will only affect him; scythe dissolves over Kuja's
body, as does the grim repear*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Breaks down into tears*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Short sob* No... *Shakes
his head* No, no, no, no, no... >.<
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Seems unaffected by the
attack, continues breathing*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Tears are falling down his
cheeks*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Opens his eyes slightly,
looks at Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Brother...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Head snaps up*
NeoEarthPrincess: [He's not affected by Death, huh?]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: It missed!
Iruka onna no ko: [^_~]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Thwaps Rei* Not funny!]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Blinks* It what?
Iruka onna no ko: [Bosses are never affected by the
Death attack. ^_~]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: It missed!
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Thwaps repeatedly* Not funny!]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sniffles, looks at Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Grinning*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small smile, kisses Kuja
softly on the lips again*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Continues to breath, raggedly,
but he's breathing*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Smile faulters* But he'll still
die from loss of blood if we don't do something fast.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Sniffles and sits up, looks at
Dagger* I should kill you...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Rises to her feet*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Frowning at her* On Earth,
attempted murder isn't something taken lightly.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I deserve whatever
punishment you decide to inflict.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I'm not going to do anything
to you... *Frowns at her*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looks at Kuja* And neither
will he.
Iruka onna no ko: [And if you plea not guilty, I'll make
your head spin with such a good representation of the
public! >.<]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Nods*]
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: But...why?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: You'll live with the fact that
you tried to kill my one, true love after he did nothing to
deserve it. He only wanted to go shopping...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Would you rather one of us
hurt or kill you?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I told you, Dagger...I told you
he came peacefully...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...I'm sorry...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: As you should be.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...Let me heal him...?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: So you can try another
attack? *Turns and raises a eyebrow at Garnet, skeptically*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Shakes her head* I won't.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small nod* Fine.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Why did you try to kill him,
Garnet?
Iruka onna no ko: Dagger*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Stands* It doesn't matter.
She did, and that's what does.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...I thought that it would be
worth forfeiting one life, maybe two or three, if it meant that
a thousand more would be saved.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Pinches his eyes shut,
through cleenched teeth* He did nothing wrong...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: And he wasn't planning on
doing anything wrong either. No one was in danger,
Dagger!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I got quite a different
impression of him when he snapped Freya's spear!
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: You mean after he asked her
nicely to put it down, yet she kept it menecingly poised and
ready for battle?
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja; *Breathing is starting to slow*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He's right, Dagger.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Now can we stop arguing this?
Just heal him!
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Nods and lifts her staff again*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small frown, steps out of
the way*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja; *Breathing is getting dangerously
close to non-exsistant*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Closes her eyes as her staff
glows blue*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Would definately kill Garnet
if Kuja dies*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Curaga. *Waves her wand*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Very relieved and exhales*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Watches Kuja intently*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Blue and gold rings of light
start to rotate around Kuja's body*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *The bloody hole in his leg starts
to grow smaller, the tissue, muscle, bone, and everything
else in there start to mend and grow back*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Glad Kuja's unconscious for
all of this, as is his GM*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *As is this GM, needless to say;
miscellanious cuts and brusies disappear*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Resists the urge to go to
Kuja, continues to watch him*
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja; *The blue and gold rings finally
fade away and his breathing regains a normal and healthy
rhythm*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small smile, goes and sits
beside Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Wide smile* Thanks, Dagger.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Nods, a grieved look still on
her face*
NeoEarthPrincess: AndreW: How long will he be asleep?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane; *Shrugs* Probably not for
long. Then again, he may sleep all day and through the
night.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ...Can I have a brush for his
hair?
NeoEarthPrincess: [Awww...]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Blinks at the strange request*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Uh...yeah, I'll go get one.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Runs off*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small nod*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Glances up at Garnet
quickly, then back at Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Doesn't want to be left alone
with Andrew, nervous of his death threats*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Slowly sits Kuja up, then
crawls behind him, leaning Kuja against his chest*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Comes back in, carrying a
fancy, silver-backed hairbrush with spiffy designs all over
the back*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles and keeps his hands
still, although this reminds him of them on SD*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Hands the brush to Andrew*
Here.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looks at Zidane, extends
his hand for the brush* Thank you.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Leans Kuja forward slightly,
hand on Kuja's tattered armour, slowly and gently brushes
Kuja's hair*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Backs up to stand next to
Garnet, watches*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Uses the ut-most gentlness
and kindess*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Amazed, never imagined
Kuja in a familiar position such as this*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Has spent many an hour
brushing Dagger's hair*
NeoEarthPrincess: [Oooo... <.<;;]
NeoEarthPrincess: [-.-;]
Iruka onna no ko: [What?]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Shrugs*]
Iruka onna no ko: [Oh.]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small frown*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I take it back. My Kuja's
hair is crispy, so he may come after you against my will...
Iruka onna no ko: Kuja: *Still unconsciously limp*
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Chuckles*]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Small smile* He's still like
that, huh...?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Nods* He sent me to a place
called Oilvert once. It was a very old, rundown castle-type
of place...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Blinks and glances at
Zidane*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looks back at Kuja and
brushes his hair softly*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: While he breifed me of the
mission, he said something like..."I can't enter Oilvert
because of an anti-magic barrier around the area."
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: "I'm going to send you
because you're too stupid to use magic." *Chuckles*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Chuckles* That's my Kuja,
alright...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Nods* The next thing he said
was "Besides, it's not my kind of place."
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grins* Dirty?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Also grins and nods, still
looking at Kuja* Very.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Chuckles* Yep... That's
one thing that'll never change.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He never ceased to amaze me.
Even though I swore to beat the crap out of him, I was still
awed by his sense of...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: His sense of determination. He
was so determined...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Glances at Zidane, nods*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Slowly shakes his head, a
small smile across his face*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Chuckles* He beat the crap
out of me more than once.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles* He's a very
persuasive man...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He is.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grins, nodding*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Speaks up* He persuaded
my mother to destroy three kingdoms before he killed her.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ... *Glances at Garnet*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Then he destroyed the last
one.
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Also staring at Kuja, anger
and hate still on her face*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Looks down* Dagger, that's
enough.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles and looks back
down at Kuja* Of course he did. You don't think he'd do it if
he didn't have to, did you?
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Laughs*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Glares at Zidane*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smirking* He doesn't do
things he doesn't want to...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He's still like that too, eh?
*Chuckles*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Nods* Oh yes... I usually
can't persude him other wise, either... *Small sigh*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Chuckles*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grinning*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...What's he like? I mean...in
day-to-day life?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Very feminine...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Nods slowly*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Thinks about there days
and realizes they're usually together, in bed, or
terrorizing/being terrorized by the gods*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...Does he laugh often?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles* He doesn't usually
laugh...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ...It's more of a giggle...
*Grins thinking about it*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Surprised, looks at Andrew*
He giggles?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Oh, yes.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles* He's quite
tickleish, as well...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Wow...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Is he?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Chuckles*
NeoEarthPrincess: AndreW: Oh, yes.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Huh. Never would have
thought...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: It's so adorable...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Smiles and kinda spaces
out*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Does he mock people and use
a lot of sarcasm?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Thinks of Ares* Not
usually...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Nods* That's good.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Nods, still brushing Kuja's
hair*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: Tell him, Zidane...about the
bird...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Blinks and looks at Garnet*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Smiles*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looks at Zidane*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: After he died...and saved
me...it took me three years to get back to Dagger.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: In that time...well...Dagger,
you tell him.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Perhaps you should wait until
my love can hear you...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Smiles at hearing Andrew call
him "my love"* Yeah, maybe that's a good idea...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Nods*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Oh, geez, we forgot about
Freya.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Blinks* Who?
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Blinks, coming out of her
daze*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Uh...the rat girl.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: The one who put the hole in his
leg...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Frowns* The one that kept
smacking me and re-opening my cuts?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: So? Leave her outside.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Yeah, I guess so...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I can't do that.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Stands up*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I could...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I'll go.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Looks at Garnet*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: I have to heal her anyway,
right?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Fine, go.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Yeah, I guess...
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Swallows at Andrew's harsh
order*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Still not on good terms with
Garnet*
Iruka onna no ko: Garnet: *Turns and leaves the room
quickly, to escape his hateful glares*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Sighs*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Didn't look up from Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Sits down on the edge of the
bed*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: You can't expect me to be
friendly to her, can you?
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: No, I guess I can't.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Nods* Thank you.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: She was only trying to protect
her kingdom...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I think there's a little bit more
involved that just that though.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: From what? A grocery
shopper? Oh, scary...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Grumbles*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Shakes his head*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I think she's trying to prove to
herself that she can protect the kingdom this time.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: From what? *Looks up at
Zidane*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Kuja. Last time, she was
helpless.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: She could only stand there and
watch.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Frowns* Kuja did nothing...
Nothing except try and save me... *Looks down, grows
quiet*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: No, not this time. Last time.
Twenty-two years ago.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: That was more than two
centuries ago!
Iruka onna no ko: [You mean decades, right?]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Yeah.. -.-;]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I know...but we haven't had a
major attack like that since.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: And she doesn't know...about
Kuja's last words...I never told anyone.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Well, you should have... She
was the one that caused this entire thing...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Yeah, I guess so...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: When they asked how I knew
that he had changed...I couldn't give them a straight answer
because I didn't want to tell them what Kuja said to me...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Why not? It could have
made this not happen!
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I don't think it would have
made any difference.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: And even if it would have, it's
too late now.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Frowns and grumbles*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Kuja told me that...that he only
just realized...in the last ten, fifteen minutes of his life...that
he realized what it meant to live...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Then he...*face contorts with
tears* Then he said "I guess I was too late" and...died...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Sniffs and wipes at his right
eye* I remember that so well...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: The frightened, sad look on his
face...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looks at Zidane*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: The way he looked at me when
I told him that I was going to take him back up to the
surface...he couldn't believe it...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He was so surprised...that I
was going to try to save him...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Blinks slowly and looks
down*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: His body was mangled...and
his face was tear-stained...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He had been through hell.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Closes his eyes*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He had sent us all through hell.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: But...in those two or three
minutes...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Drops the brush and hugs
Kuja to him*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...I found something no one
could ever and would ever grasp...I understood why he did
all that...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Smiles, looking into space,
staring, still, at Kuja's body* He never was really, truely
an evil, bad person...he was just...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: Alone and scared...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Closes his eyes and hugs
Kuja tighter to him*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He was just in the wrong place
at the wrong time...he had no choice...if I had been in his
shoes, I would have done exactly the same thing...
Iruka onna no ko: [So true.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [*Nods*]
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I tried to tell the others that,
but they didn't get it.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: They just couldn't understand.
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Small nod, face in Kuja's
hair*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I gave up after a while.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Looks at Kuja's face, coming
in from space*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Tears immediately brim his
eyes*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looks at Zidane*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: He looks now exactly like he
did before he died...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Swallows*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: Frightened...and desperate...
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: *Looks away*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Looks down at Kuja*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Wants Kuja to wake up*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: You said that he has
nightmares about killing people?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: ... *Small nod*
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: I'll bet he's having one right
now...
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Closes his eyes, cringing*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Slowly starts to shakes
Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko signed off at 4:44:29 AM.
Iruka onna no ko signed on at 4:44:37 AM.
Iruka onna no ko direct connection is closed.
Iruka onna no ko: [I'm here.]
NeoEarthPrincess: [Okies.]
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Closes his eyes, cringing*
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: *Slowly starts to shakes
Kuja*
Iruka onna no ko wants to directly connect.
Iruka onna no ko is now directly connected.
Iruka onna no ko: Zidane: ...Is that a good idea...?
NeoEarthPrincess: Andrew: I don't care. He won't be
horribly mad at me, and I want him awake.
