Sora ran. He glanced up at the sky as he ran. It seemed so empty and black ( Read more... )

Leon knew that he should have been taking the opportunity to rest. Having only slept a handful of hours since his arrival to Traverse after a long journey -- No thanks to that idiot Zell, he thought viciously -- he sorely needed it. Sleep had lost its appeal after that meeting, however. There was too much to take in, namely the full extent of Ansem ( Read more... )

"Hoping we'll be able to see something different?"It took a while from suggesting having this meeting inside this room to actually setting foot in it, despite the cold outside. Once the General and Zack started into the room Cloud followed behind only pausing to give a fleeting look of concern to the overly-thoughtful keyblader. The look was ( Read more... )

"That's for me...?" The inquiry about the items caused a raise of an eyebrow in response. "Yeah.." There was nothing particularly odd about giving the items that belonged to his friend, to him. They both got something out of that munny so it was a fair shake on both sides. It didn't hurt to make sure that there was extra items there if his friend ( Read more... )

Aerith stared right up at the gaping hole in their nice, sturdy roof with a frown. A nice, pile of snow had gathered right in the middle of the hallway by now, and the flower girl was a little miffed that no one had bothered to temporarily patch it up until Dante and Zack actually got around to repairing it ( Read more... )

Sephiroth stepped into the First District cafe with a genuine sigh of relief. Not only was he grateful to be away from the hotel, swarming as it was with strange people - and Dante, whom Sephiroth had his doubts qualified as a person, exactly, he seemed more of a creature - but he was simply glad to be somewhere warm. He didn't have enough munny to ( Read more... )

The Third District was considered to be the most dangerous, but that never stopped Leon from using it to get to the First District. He'd lived in Traverse Town long enough that the gradual increase of powerful Heartless in recent years no longer posed a challenge for him. Wyverns and Defenders were the strongest variations that Traverse provided, ( Read more... )

"Sorry to cut in," he said, though from his tone he didn't sound very sorry at all. "But why are you here, Sora?" It wasn't that the Keyblade Master wasn't welcome here, but it wasn't something that could be taken lightly either. There had to be a reason, especially when there was a bloody war out there.Rikku winced at Sora’s question. Why did they ( Read more... )

Rikku stepped out of the hotel; this had been a very interesting evening, to say the least. Tackling a “heartless”, a man (and what a man) flying through the roof, seeing her new semi-metallic friend in bed with another man. She had had more excitement in a single evening in Traverse Town than she had had in her entire life on the Destiny Islands. ( Read more... )

It still felt a little unreal, even after so many years. In his mind, Sephiroth was still the General, after all, and to have stood here exchanging words with him... Well, it had been interesting. The awe had worn off long ago, obviously, but it would still take some getting used to ( Read more... )
