" Oh I see? So you were in a cell? Why were you thrown in there?" Yjuna said looking him over suspiciously with her blue glowing eyes almost as if she could see right through him.
Yjuna stopped and turned around, halfway into the darkness of the hallway, her eyes began to glow again. " You sure? You aren't luring me into a trap are you? I'm not one easy to trust others, especially what I've been through."
" Yeah, sounds very much like it- . . . ugh, so my suspicions were right. Sorry I must be going, I had a nice talk with you but, I can't afford to be captured again and treated like a pawn or a new weapon, I'm out. So I will just be. . ." Yjuna said as she tried to walk away from him and escape.
" Oh so you knew somebody from the empire? Hmm ? not surprising, everyone seems to be splitting up more then ever lately to form their own resistances. But tell me, you aren't in alliance with a strange man I was captured by earlier. . his name is uh . .. I think Joseph . . . John, uh . .. Johna- . . ugh forget it, I have a hell of a time remembering so many names. "
" Oh so knowledge of my existence is more vastly spread on the outside? I thought nobody knew about me except for those who were a part of the super soldier program. I assumed that when I was left on a cold table knowing no company except for white masked faces and deadly syringes full of chemicals. . . with nobody there to give me a voice or rescue me." Yjuna said smiling a slight smile.
" I'm not sure what effect our births had, but obviously nothing new. Unless something is hidden that I cannot see. . ." Atem said , not alarmed by the sudden jerk. " I wonder where we're going." Sophie said as she sat on the control panel, still in her pink kimono from the festival. Meanwhile back at the palace . . . Phisoxa in one of the three deserted throne chairs. She was asleep but her ears and whiskers twitched when she sensed something, something famiilar yet unexpected was in the castle. She heard a floor tile move and began to shake on the marble titled floor a few feet away and Phisoxa stared it down. Suddenly the tile lifted, revealing a empty space beneath. " Nobody is here but a cat, I think its safe." said a male voice. " Why don't you go first and make sure then instead of hiding down here?" said a female voice " But . . . ergh fine." Suddenly a man pulled himself out of the gap in the floor and Phisoxa instantly recongized him, the handsome landowner who seemed never to age a day over 30. " What is Dante doing here?" Phisoxa thought, keeping her composure because didn't want to alarm them with the sight of a talking cat. After Dante pulled himself to his feet he helped a whole crowd of others up, all whom Phisoxa knew. Riku, Sora, Kairi, Pippi of course who looked more like a young woman now then the bratty little girl she used to be, Aia, Crystal, and many others. Nuthura and her eight year old daughter who had light gray hair and blue eyes came last and soon of them were above around calm but still weary of the danger. " Do you think hes someplace around?" Dante said as he dusted off his clothes and looked around the room. " Who knows, but that doesn't matter,the jaw of the enemy is more safe then whats out there." Aia said as she came walking towards the thrones where Phisoxa was seated and Nuthura's daughter followed and the young girl's attention focused on Phisoxa whom she scooped up in a flash and began cuddling her, catching Phisoxa by suprise. " Awww, this cat is so cute !!!! I didn't know such a evil guy would have such a cute cat !!" " Put the creature down, Haydee, who knows, for that thing might have rabies." Aia said as the girl refused to let Phisoxa down, without thinking, Phisoxa spoke outloud. " I certainly do not have rabies !!!" The young girl screamed and allowed Phisoxa to fall from her arms. " That cat just talked !!! What is it !!!" " Its a spy !! A demon !!" Nuthura replied as she pulled her daughter back and Dante wandered forward and scooped up the cat and looked it straight in the eyes, which made Phisoxa feel uncomfortable. " Hey let me down !!! Don't hold me like that, it hurts !!" Phisoxa scrambled in his grip as Dante made no sudden movement, after a long silence, Dante only sighed. " This isn't a demon, but this cat isn't just a cat, it has a human soul and heart. . .. " " Do you think Mixt manged a soul transmutation?" Nuthura said eying the cat.
" My name is Yjuna. . . I don't consider myself to be part of the imperialists or any side for that matter, I may wear this outfit, but it was because I used to be part of the imperials. . . you see I was a former member of the experimental soldier unit and later I was adopted by the royal guard, but then the Prince grew suspicious of me even after I helped bag a enemy spy for him who tried thieving his office, but instead he thought I was the culprit and he sent me to the front lines either to die or prove myself. . . but instead I was captured by enemy, interrogated and then they were originally going to kill me but now . .. they brought me here for some reason and I escaped. Hopefully these people weren't on your side. . . ."
I posted in breath, reply?
" I don't know why I am here either, you see I was captured but for some reason, they didn't kill me, they kept me alive. . . even though "he" said I was useless . . ." The girl said walking slowly out of the shadows, revealing her face and her eyes stopped glowing once they came into the light. " So what be your business stalking lonesome girls and pointing a gun in their face?"
Atem finally broke his silence and spoke a answer. " Well, you see according to my mother's friends shes more then just a regular human, you see mom wasn't ever suppose to exist, nor were we, and you see her birth went against the laws of the world order and in turn caused a gap in time, space, and even dimensions. People and creatures of all manner were allowed to venture amongst the universal spheres, like a bridge. it allowed father to cross from his dimension to ours and also The heartless were birthed from that as well. You wanna know why this uncommon event happened? Well it is said, when mother was only a baby, she was destined to die early,to be killed but a seeker masquerading as a "guardian angel" gave her the chance to continue to live. Her birth gave way to that bridge that was the first strike, but when she gave birth to my older half sister and brother,it teared another gap, larger then the first, and so much more evil was allowed to come through. Mother may not care or know about it, but she is what you would call a living virus to this universe and many another. Shes a abnormality in the universe that naturally every manner of creature is attracted to in one way or another, even those who hate her are somewhat drawn to her"
" I think his world would be last to fall prey to the consumers, so he is either oblivious to what is going on or he is preparing to meet them. I think he has little regard for what will happen to his citizens, because they won't matter much when the worlds are ravaged again. But knowing the consumers they will want to get to that world more then any other because Phisoxa is there and they are attracted to her like moths to a light." Nemo said as he took out a cinnamon stick and put it in his mouth.
Yjuna kept walking, "seemingly oblivious" to his presence as she continued on, it seemed to get darker further down in the hallway as she progressed since some of the lighting had failed, it go to a point that the hall had been painted dark with shadow that only the outline of her body could be seen. But suddenly she stopped dead and stood there for a minute, then she spun around to glare at him not a sound escaping from her. As she looked at him from within the shadowy portion of the hall, her eyes seemed to glow with a eerie blue tone in the darkness. " Why are you following me?"
As the hulking ship when on it's buisness carrying them to whereever they were needed, everyone was busy sitting silent, their minds full with questions and wonders about today's events. " I wonder if mom, dad, and my little sister are okay . . ." Nemo said as he leaned against the wall. " They are probably on the run, knowing them." Sophie replied to him as she sat in the middle of the room while Atem sat in the navi chair completely silent.
Freyja arrived at last and jumped up top to meet them, but she kept her distance, waiting for a perfect moment to come in, after all, she did not feel like wasting her time by transforming right away, she only reserved that for her really tough customers who were rather wealthy with power. But now she could look upon each and everyone of the enemy without worrying that her stare would disrupt anyone of them. For now the grim deed of birthing new l'cie had been done and now she considered them more of a equal opponent then before. Freyja stood in the background with her arms crossed eying the fued between Cid and Omega.
Yjuna began kicking around a old rusted can on the ground as she wandered down the hallway, completely unphased by whatever dangers she could bring upon herself, after all she was unafraid of nearly everything. " Hopefully I can find a way off here and back to the home planet where I can live normally and let these people play out their little game of war by themselves."
" Hmm, these people sure are strange. . . I wonder what it could be stalking us down here. . . it won't hurt to give it a try . . ." She thought to herself as Yjuna shouted down the empty hall. " Hello?!"
Yjuna quickly broke free of the guard who was holding her and ran across the lab, intent on getting away from them, but also out of sight from the silent assassin.
" These peopled don't appear to have died by starvation or illness . . it seems as if they were killed by force, some of their bodies are mutilated a bit. . . " Yjuna said looking down at the corpse of a fallen lab assistant , well it appeared to be by the uniform, it seemed her jaw had gone missing.
Yjuna felt a sickening feeling in her stomach at the sight of all the degrading carnage, maybe that or the sight of the lab brought back bad memories of whens he spent most of her childhood in a lab. " What happened to these people . . .?"
" Hmm, it seems this place goes on forever, does it go deep underground as well?" The girl wondered aloud to herself.
