When the door had opened, Yuna and Garnet looked to one another, both incredibly confused by what was happening. Aerith had told them both quite a bit, and neither truly understood what was going on.

“... Thank you.” Garnet bowed quickly to Aerith, looking to the green eyed woman for a moment and meeting her gaze. “... What happens to you, now?”

Aerith shook her head. “I will remain here... as I have for so long... I cannot leave. The magic that keeps me alive only works here... and I cannot depart from this world until I have seen peace come to this land... if you ever need me, I will be here, Sarah.”

Garnet flushed once more as she was called by her birth name. The girl turned and slowly emerged from the room, looking rather confused... but her eyes were burning with a determination.

“... So, what happened?” Auron asked, as he saw the two emerge.

“... I am not entirely sure myself... but I do believe that this quest has come to its end. When the time is right, I will be able to call on the summons...”

Yuna looked to Garnet. She wanted to ask Garnet – her apparent sister – about what they had learned, but now did not seem the time, and with Rikku around...

“What will you do now, Princess?” Yuna asked.

Garnet frowned. “... I must return to Alexandria...”

Didymus raised an eyebrow.

"...Sarah? Interesting..." he said.

"...and your quest has come to an end, you say?" He paused. He still found himself uncertain of the very nature of what had occurred...in that regard, he was probably no different from most any of the rest of them, though he guessed it was pure.

“... I must return to Alexandria...”

Didymus nodded.

Something was building inside him. THIS was it. THIS was why Garnet had been protected. If she was going to claim the throne...

...this could be the reason why it was ordained he protect her.

"So, then, shall we all gather 'round the campfire for the night? Or...you know, now that I think about it, was the boat just going to wait for us?"

Steiner's heart rate had increased-he looked hopeful, yet wary, about the prospect of seeing his country again.

"And, Yuna, if I may ask, are you coming with us?" Didymus continued.

He resisted the urge to make some remark about her having "prior engagements".

"I'll believe it when I see it...." Crystal muttered, eyes narrowed and tapping her foot "Oh wait, but I wont because you're going to rush off and hopefully not die if your lucky! Promise me you wont get killed, because if you do the whole entire world is doomed. You think what happened at our home was bad, well imagine how bad you'll feel when it happens to EVERYONE!"

I can't see what you're imagining
-Central Streets-

Carrot held up his sword, then slashed as Scar charged at him, attempting to scare the man back from attacking!

Meanwhile, a woman dropped from the rooftops, appearing in front of Galv and Melanie.

“Wh-who are you?” Galv asked, eyes wide, afraid someone else was attacking them.'

“Relax, I'm a friend of the guy with the sword...” the woman answered, “I'm Sergeant Angua, Ankh-Morpork City Watch...”

-Central Underground-

Hammah frowned, not liking all the yelling and arguing going on among the adults, his eyes beginning to well up slightly.

“Hold on here...” Spork said, stepping forward, “Going to the Fuhrer yourself and inviting him is a bad idea, like Crystal here said...Besides, we have to get Ankh-Morpork to agree to have the talks. Which means we have to get an audience with Veterni. I might have a connection I can use, though....”

-Madain Sari-

“...Sora and I can go with Yuna, for now...” Kairi spoke up, “She might need help...and Spira is a neighbor, after all...”

[Central Underground]

Sama flinched as Crystal yelled at him. She really thought the world would be doomed if he died? Sama wasn't so sure... ever since he had failed to protect his own home, he wondered how much good he could really do for the world... but she still had faith in him, even after all this time...

“... Crystal, I promise I won't die...” He frowned, wishing he could make her believe.

“Ahahahahahahahah... Master, maybe I can offer some assistance?”

Suddenly appearing next to Crystal was Genius!

“Don't forget, you've got a genie. Phenomenal cosmic powers.” Genius is humble.

Then Sama looked over to Spork and frowned. “I guess you have a point... but why wouldn't Ankh-Morpork agree? If the war is ended thanks to their help... every nation in the world will be in their debt to some extent... I'd think they'd like that...”

[Madain Sari]

Yuna frowned. She had... Seymour to deal with. She knew something was very off about the Maester, and she needed to find a way to deal with him... and the only prospect that would allow him that option was the wedding...

But, as she sat here... she wondered if it was the right thing to do...

“... I will at least come with you back to the shore, to see you off.” Yuna said.

Garnet frowned. “Lady Yuna... I realize you have your own country to think about... but do you think you could come with us?”

Garnet had just learned that she was Yuna's younger sister, and that she was – by birth – a citizen of the Spirian Islands... she hated to think of saying goodbye to Yuna already.

“... I... do not know.” Yuna sighed.

[Central Streets]

Scar was cut across the chest by Carrot's spear and he jumped back, clutching his new wound and growling with pain. The Ishvaran holy man narrowed his eyes and his hand began to glow with alchemic lights.

“You are infuriating me!”

“... I... do not know.”

"Of course you can! You can go with them! You're NEEDED more on the mainland, right?"

Rikku had quickly entered into the conversation.

"I don't think you should simply up and leave any responsibilties you have here..." Didymus said.

"...I'd hate for the Cluster to suddenly blame Galdwin or Alexandria or anyone else for your disappearance...and as much as I hate to say it, you absconding in the company of a Paladin wouldn't exactly be the best PR for Galdwin...nor for Alexandria with Garnet. You should at least make sure people know where you're off to..."

Rikku seemed to have suddenly gotten an idea, but now looked...uncharacteristically troubled.

The Genie appeared and spoke and once again Crystal's mood made a sudden change from absolutely enraged to optimistic. "You're the all powerful genie right? Then why can't we just fix this all with magic? Surely you can't shy away from politics right? End the war!"

Sorry Crystal, if the Genie did that it would make for a very short RP.

Central Streets

Melanie looked up to the woman...And narrowed her eyes. "Well your watch is doing a pretty cruddy job! Do you know you have homicidal maniacs runniny around Central trying to 'cense our soul'?! No wonder my mom never let me come here before!"

“... As I said, I do not know.” Yuna shook her head. “For now, all I can promise is I will see you back to Luca. I can speak with Maester Seymour there...”

[Central Underground]

Genius simply chuckled.

“My dear, I am all powerful... I can create something from nothing, a feat even the greatest alchemist cannot accomplish... I can utilize magics without repercussion, a feat even the greatest mages cannot preform... but ending the war...”

Genius frowned. “I cannot change people's hearts or minds. I cannot destroy free will... so, no, I cannot end the war. It is beyond even my power.”

Didymus nodded.

"Very well. In the meantime, shall we set up camp for the evening, or-"

"Yeah!" Rikku insisted. "We're already here and we got a fire going and everything! It's getting dark anyway!"

"And I'm not so sure that I feel entirely at ease spending the night in this place, but I suppose...I think we'll be okay." Didymus interjected.

Rikku nodded. "So we can all take it easy and just stay here for one night, right? Riiiiight?" she asked.

"Why are you so insistant?" Steiner added.

"Um..." Rikku paused. "...because everyone's tired! I really think we all just need a rest..." she said.

Yuna frowned a bit as Rikku pressured them to stay the night in Madain Sari. She supposed it could do no harm, but this city... it was overrun with fiends come nightfall, and it could be a dangerous place to stay.

“... Very well... we can stay, but we're going to need to be on guard.”

Garnet, however – and you all should know it by now – disagreed.

“No... isn't there some way we can head back to Luca tonight?” She frowned.

Rikku looked satisfied, momentarily, when Yuna agreed to let them stay for the night.

“No... isn't there some way we can head back to Luca tonight?”

"I think I have to say that I agree..." Didymus said. "...we shouldn't tarry any more than needed."

"Hey!" Rikku said. "Come on, we can afford one night here! We'll be on guard! Didn't the princess wanna stay here anyway? I mean, this place is kind of cool to look around, isn't it?" she asked.

She seemed rather insistent on this point, and Steiner was raising an eyebrow...

While Crystal had a feeling that was what Genius would say, it still dissapointed her greatly to hear that the war could not be ended with a single wish...She just wanted things to go back to what they used to be! She remebered being so happy as a kid in the waterbending valley....Being grown up sucked.

"....I had a feeling you would say that" Crystal muttered sadly, turning back to Sama. He was going to leave either way....She doubted there was much she could do to change that.

"Just go then" she muttered, going back over by Hammah "Go get yourself killed trying to be the hero"

She was VERY bitter about this.

“Rikku...” Yuna looked over to her cousin and gave a small sigh. She knew this girl well, and she knew that Rikku had some sort of reason for wanting to stay. At the same time, Yuna wasn't sure if staying behind was a good idea.

She worried... she was unsure if she should follow Garnet, and she feared that if she tarried she would end up staying in Luca... with Seymour.

“I did want to stay here... but...” Garnet shook her head. “I feel as if we should hurry back, if we can.”

[Central Underground]

Sama flinched, he could tell that Crystal was very unhappy about his decision. He sighed... he could easily understand why, and if he was wrong – if he DID end up dead, then she was right in thinking it would likely mean the end of any chance the Bending Tribes had.

Even if Sama did not really believe in himself, he knew that many Benders still held out hope that the Avatar would return and save them... to chase Amestris from their lands...

“I know you don't understand what I'm doing, but I promise you I won't get killed.” Sama said, approaching her and smiling.

“I'll be back... really soon...” He paused, and then grabbed her and kissed her. After a moment, he broke away and turned, heading towards the path to the surface.

[Fuhrer's Office]

“Fuhrer Mustang...”

Mustang was at his seat near the window of his office. He was brooding, and angry; but now he was being briefed by one of the generals.

“Yes? What's your report? Get on with it!” Mustang demanded.

“... Sir, there has been no sign of Lieutenant Hawkeye...” The General frowned. “... But there are reports that Scar, the alchemist killer, has been sighted in this area...”

Mustang swore. “...”

“Sir... if we keep the troops looking for Lieutenant Hawkeye, there will be no one to pursue Scar...”

“... Damn it. Fine. Recall the teams... I want Scar's head before sunrise, do I make myself clear, General?”

“Yes, sir!”

Once the General turned and left, Mustang was again alone with his brooding. He was really in no mood for anyone to approach him, when suddenly the door burst open again. Someone who was not supposed to be there had come to see him.

No, not Sama.

A tall woman with scaley green skin and large black horns instead of hair. Maleficent.

“... Fuhrer Roy Mustang.” Maleficent smirked.

“YOU.” Mustang was on his feet. “You were there when Bradley...”

Maleficent nodded. “Let me spare us both some time: My name is Maleficent. I am a sorceress, and a servant of a greater power. I created Bradley, and many of the other homunculi. This nation is my tool, and as its new ruler, you are my puppet.”

Mustang raised his gloved hand. “I am no one's puppet.” He snapped his fingers – but nothing happened.

“Your alchemy is useless against me.” Maleficent grinned. “Now... sit and listen, if you care for Riza Hawkeye.”

Mustang's eyes widened, and he slowly sat down. At times like this, he regretted not carrying a firearm.

“The homunculus who took Hawkeye is my servant... and your fellow puppet. You should know, his name is Wrath... and he will live up to his namesake, and take his full wrath out on Hawkeye, should you disobey me.”

Mustang swore. “What do you want from me?”

Maleficent chuckled. “What I want... is a Philosopher’s Stone. Alexandria is another nation that is under my control... but there is a problem. You see, Alexandria is a realm where women rule. I have Garland, the King, to control that realm – but if Princess Garnet were to return, she would be Queen... and in Alexandria, a Queen is far more powerful than a King.”

Mustang paused... an entire nation where women were always considered better than men. He was both excited by the idea, and terrified, given his reputation with ladies.

“... Princess Garnet must NOT be allowed to return. Not if I am to use Alexandria as the base for the next Philosopher’s Stone... the one we created from the Bending Valley is almost dry.”

At this, Mustang paused. “W-What...?”

“Hmm? Oh... right. Philosopher’s Stones are created from human sacrifices. All the people you helped kill and capture in the Bending Valley? They are my current stone. I really must thank you for helping me enslave their souls.”

The look of horror that crossed Mustang's face was indescribable. His eyes were wide, and his mind churning. Could it be true? Was this woman's story reliable...? Had he really helped turn an entire nation into...

Mustang looked as if he might throw up.

“Anyway... Alexandria is next, you see, but to do so, I cannot have that foolish Princess return... and moreso, I cannot afford to destroy them as long as Galdwin is proving a problem. So... you will kill Princess Garnet... and you will break the back of Galdwin's army. If you fail, or refuse... I will send you Riza Hawkeye... one body part at a time.”

Roy was shaking with rage, gritting his teeth, and ready to snap... but unfortunately, snapping his fingers was doing nothing at the moment, thanks to Maleficent's magicks.

“... So glad we could have this chat, 'Fuhrer'. You've gone up in the world... instead of being Bradley's minion and weapon or war... you are mine. Now, the lives you take will at least be in your own name... ha... hahahah...”

Maleficent vanished.

Rikku looked disappointed, but comtemplative, as both Yuna and Garnet expressed their eagerness to move on.

She sighed.

"Fine, if you want. But we still have to pack up."

She paused.

"But I think someone should go on ahead and make sure they all know at the boat we're coming. And they'll probably listen to you most, Yunie. So why don't we split up and you and I head out to the harbor and everyone else cleans up camp?"

"Sounds efficient." Steiner remarked, silently hoping he could be free of Rikku's company for a bit (she wasn't THAT bad, he thought, but she irritated him almost as much as Zidane sometimes).

Central City, Amestris

A knock came on Mustang's door.

"Roy? What's going on in there?"

Hughes let himself in.

"I heard someone here...a woman, I thought. But..."

He had a look at Mustang's expression.

"...what just happened? I didn't see a woman come in, and you look like you've just been...outdone."

Hughes knew Mustang's general moods and expressions.

Yuna nodded to Rikku. “Okay. That's a good idea...”

She paused, looking over to Garnet... her newly-discovered sister. There was a lot Yuna wanted to ask, but that could wait until a time when the two were alone.

She would eagerly follow Rikku back towards the dock.


Garnet, meanwhile, looked over to Didymus. She approached him and paused.

“May I have a word with you while we pack?”

[Fuhrer's Office]

Mustang looked distraught. The agony on his face was the same sort Hughes would remember from the Ishvarlan and Bending Valley campaigns.

“... I have been, Hughes. We all have... this entire damn country has been outdone for a long time!”

Mustang threw several things from his desk, seething with rage. He kicked over his trash can, because he is mature, and then he walked over and sat on the edge of his desk, ripping open the drawer and pulling out a bottle of whiskey.

“... It's all a joke. It was all a waste... I scarified... I fought... I schemed... and now, when I'm finally sitting in this chair... I'm just a figurehead. A puppet so that our enemies have a target, and our country has a image.”

Mustang sighed, leaning back in his chair. “... And worst of all, Hawkeye is going to die for my dream... and it's a dream I can't realize. I wanted to bring peace... and instead I'm going to end up known as a bloodier man than Bradley...”

Hughes probably thought Mustang was off on an insane rant.

[…]

Meanwhile, on the balcony, Sama had just arrived...
