[Thread, Pandaemonium]
Characters: Tifa, Warrior of Light, Rydia, Terra, Celes, Mateus, Auron, possibly Lufene (let me know if I forgot anyone)
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: The group travel to Pandaemonium to retrieve the Fire Crystal. Little do they know that an old enemy is waiting for them, let alone the undead denizens of the island. No tagging order for this one - tag in as and when.
Location: Pandaemonium
Date: October 30th, 1804
Warnings: Violence.
It wasn't the first time Tifa had left her family behind in her efforts to try and find a way back to her own world, and she suspected that it wouldn't be the last. Getting the crystal was only one step on their journey home. That didn't make it any easier though. And it was a difficult time for the children, especially since Cloud had disappeared...
Cloud.
She was doing this for him too. Tifa was sure that he would have wanted to go after the crystal. There was no life for any of them here. Children like Denzel and Marlene desperately needed stability, and that was the one thing Gaia couldn't provide. They needed to go back home.
Still, it wasn't easy to leave them. All Tifa could do was make sure that she kept in touch with her friends and family. She'd become almost paranoid in that sense. One missed call could mean so many things.
But as they touched down on Pandaemonium, Tifa tried to put all that out of her head. She needed to focus. Pulling on her gloves, she nodded at the others. She was expecting Mateus to be waiting for them, but apart from that, who knew what was out there? Lufene could have seen them approaching too. Could be waiting for them, even.
Stepping outside, the sight of Pandaemonium itself, huge and imposing, should have drawn all their attention. But there was something else waiting for them: an army of the undead, stretching out as far as the eye could see. Abominations, skeletons, rotting corpses, even zombie dragons. The nearest of these corpses began shambling towards them, and Tifa felt the bile rise in her throat.
"There are thousands of them!"
