The Alpha and Omega: Spira's true history [with Ishu]

"Yeah... so- how long have you guys been Sphere Hunting?" He sipped some more of his beer and swiped his tongue over his teeth.


She watched him go and tapped her wrist, then stood up and walked closer to the tv area, "My, zny um zurrurk?"

"Ud'm bhidda ifirca duit ed dnum byurd."

"En, U mii ayo ehi kelpcurk dyy. Ty ayo dnurg ayo'hi kyurk dy legi eradnurk?"

He shrugged, "Zi'cc mii. U el ryd dyy syrsihrit pod bysgid-snerki um eczeam rusi." He finished off his beer and set the can down, "Zna tyr'd ayo mud tyzr, pymm?"

She put her hands on her hips, "Ry, U el kyurk dy ky scier ob."

The guy nodded idly and crossed his arms over his chest, his eyes glued to the screen.

Eve walked away and went into a room off to the side, the door closing behind her.
 
Axle vaguely listened in on the conversation at hand, but took small bit of delight seeing Kilika start to take the lead. It wasn't definite yet; however, from where he stood he was sure they would start to push Besaid down.

Legiaus was more interested in watching the delicious femme fatale walk in and then out of the room, only mildly concern with whatever else was going on. "Damn that woman is sexy..."

Xion...well he found himself actually entering an arena fight rather than going to the training grounds. He needed to think clearly, needed to feel his own energies and self, and he found the thrill of combat and blood something that helped him that department. Part of it made him sick; part of it was the only thing that happened to get him through things alive. By the time the match was over with [I'll let you decide the winner] a new intermediate level champion was being born, covered in sweat, blood, cuts, and a satisfied if not sadistic grin. Yep...he'd have a long way to go before he was the ideal image of a summoner...
 
"You are out of your league, man." He just shook his head. This guy sure was vigilant, even though he hadn't really made a move just yet.


(We can say that he lost. It will make his partner more important -nods-)

Eve started up her shower and peeled off all of her clothing, setting it aside and then removing her mask. When her mask was removed, her hair fell down around her. She sighed and dropped the mask, plus goggles, off to the side. It felt good taking it off every once in a while. She stepped into the shower and shut the door then let a stream of warm water splash onto her face from the wall.

She smoothed the water through her hair and spit out anything that got into her mouth. It wasn't long before her long, dark hair was completely wet and any dirt on her body had been streamed off. She turned off the water and sat down on the bench, then turned on the steam. She hunched over, resting her arms on her legs, as she relaxed.

A screen popped up infront of her and she looked at it. She sighed and pressed on it, "Ja, was ist das jetzt?" She paused before correcting herself, "Zned?"
 
Axle was not the type of person who couldn't admit when he had lost, and simply nodded. "Well I guess your potential seemed to win out in this case, and it was a good match...there are no complaints on my end." Rather than wait for Legiaus to hand over his lost gil, he picked the bag up and tossed it to the man himself. "We'll have to make another bet for the finals...you seem to be an enjoyable type to place a wager with."

Legiaus grinned slightly. It was nice to see one of them could be good sports about things like this; he personally hated losing...and that wasn't something he would enjoy. "Well now that that's out the way why don't we try looking at something else...you got any league arena matches you can watch from this thing?"

If the responsibility of the world were on your shoulders, what would you have done? The question continued to pound in the sixteen-year-old's mind over and over as he reviewed the path laid out before him. If the three of them happened to flip the screen to his final match they would see the fruits of his labor, and what happened when he was in his thinking mode...a.k.a...destructive mode. Axle would be proud, having been the one that taught him the way of the sword, to see he was utilizing the graceful acrobatics of their 8-forms style...but disappointed to see the injuries he had obtained. He would need more training...

It would be the particular moment that would have gained the most attention. Battered, blood merged with those darkened strands...his attire was nothing but tattered scraps as he glanced at the group ahead of him. It would appear that ever since Eve moved her way through the ranks ranks for Novice, Intermediate, and Pro were one versus a group...and he simply had to take on the final mob to claim his title. She thinks I should look at this as an honor...but...where's the honor in being the one who could have condemned the world? Xion understood her words. He had a chance to redeem the Guado, to redeem the ways of summoning and define himself, but...he barely accepted the way he was. Before he knew it he was rushing his opponents before his body seemed to blur into a spiraling motion of dark, wing like movements that cut through the Pilot League member's mercilessly.

Axle would watch the screen with a slight brow raised. To think he would actually master the Black Wing at such an age...it was...remarkable, and saddening to think about when he considered the path Xion would have to take. He would have made a great guardian if he wasn't a summoner. "I'll have to have him go over the forms...he's lacking..."

Legiaus watched with a slacked jaw. He knew the kid could be deadly using Axle's style, but even he hadn't seen the final technique of it implemented... "You're making one hell of a monster out of him..."

To this Axle flashed a rather cold smirk, dropping the temperature in the room slightly. "We're both rubbage on the doorstep of hell...the way we fight simply reflects the sins we inherit."
 
The man cheered when his team won and he glasped his hands together, then thrust his fists into the air victoriously, "Aien! Dned um zned U'l decgurk epyod!" He was hit in the chin with the money but didn't mind. He stuffed the bag away into his pocket, "Oh, you bet I will gamble with you guys again!" He got up from the couch and went over to the bar, "Yeah, you can watch just about anything on there. Go ahead and find a match." He grabbed a few beers and came back, handing them out to the other guys.



She looked over what she was seeing, "Ud tyimr'd cyyg kyyt. Dnihi um e cyd lyhi nihi dner ud um meaurk."

"U gryz. U wyort lyhi pod ud um ecc ur Koety ert U el ryd wcoird. "

"En, zicc, ayo dyyg dni lummuyr whyl li ert kefi ud dy e porsn yw gutm. Pod, U tyr'd lurt dhermcedurk ifihadnurk wyh ayo. Vomd mirt ud dy li znir ayo ser. Ayo gryz la curim ehi misohi." She turned off the steam and had it filtered before a fan turned on and began to dry her.

"Echuknd, ayo mnyoct nefi ifihadnurk myyr. Kid pesg dy li EMEB! Kyd ud!?"

"Dsn, aien, aien. Secl tyzr." Eve turned off the screen and picked up a towel that came out from a side panel. She started to dry her hair with the use of the fans and relaxed while she could.
 
By the time their little drinking buddy returned he would be graced by the sight of Xion decimating some of the League's members on the screen. Legiaus was cheering and downing another draft; he might not be as strict with him as Axle was...but man did it feel good to know their little brother could kick ass. "So how about that for you man...imagine what the kid could do in a MW!"

Axle sighed and tilted his head slightly, thanking the man for the beer and began to quench his thirst. "He's talented but has a long way to go...mastery over self is important...and he has yet to achieve that. But...it's nice to see how far he's improved...tell me Legiaus...when do you think Aimee will have the information?"

A sigh was his answer as the older man shrugged and grinned, "who knows...who cares right now...we could be rich betting on this Eve chick when she has matches...and on Xion! Think of the profit...we could enjoy..." He paused when he saw the daggers at his throat, and the annoyed expression on Axle's face. "Ahem...umm...it could be a few hours or tomorrow...heheh..."

About fifteen minutes later Xion returned to the room, looking haggard for lack of a better word...but more determined. Something about examining yourself in a life or death situation seemed to help certain people mature and grow; fortunately or unfortunately, Xion was one of those types of people. ".....Do you...happen to have a shower in this facility?"

Axle...and Legiaus face palmed themselves. You would have thought he would have said something more epic!
 
"I dunno, operating an MW isn't the same as fighting." He belched and continued, "But you guys said he could build them- he could make good money from that."


Eve looked over some of the pictures, crossing her legs infront of her and pushing through the screen, going through them.


The guy looked over the edge of the couch when Xion walked in, "hey, Champ! Showers? Yeah, go to the right over there, behind that shelf. It is a guest room. There is a shower in there." It was on the other side of the flat, in the opposite direction from the room Eve went into.



Aimee looked a bit frazzled. She had been working nonstop and was finally hitting a breakthrough. Her scans had just completely and she leaned forward, her eyes widening at what she was seeing. The girl in the middle of the room did not function from organs or brainwaves. Everything in her body was a facade, a shell. There was an amazing source of power circling around in her body. "Zned...zned um dnum?" She started to make another call when a warning popped up on her screen, "Eh?"

The amount of energy in the room was rising, emanating from girl. "Zned dni-" One of the operating systems exploded, shifting the floor in the room and knocking Aimee off of her feet. She looked up in time to see everything else around her start to light up with warning before exploding. She covered her head with her arms as glass and bits of metal flew around the room.
 
Axle sighed when more gil symbols seemed to flash behind Legiaus's eyes when the man mentioned Xion could make money building MW's. It as one thing when they didn't have a steady income, but to exploit the kid for the sake of it was a little...irksome. Then again it wasn't like he didn't have his days and interests. "Perhaps, but he...is a genius in every sense of the word. Technology, combat, anything you can think of...that child has the potential to achieve in...but not the stability at current. A blade in need of sharpening that can only take a master's touch."

Legiaus blinked softly, tilting his head as if wowed by those words. "Starting to sound a little poetic there, Axle...who know you might be able to pull in some chicks for us!"

Meanwhile Xion offered the Al-Bhed man a smile and nodded. When he entered the guest room he made an effort to disrobe himself, tired from the strain on his body and mind. The lack of clothing felt wonderful, especially as warm water began to pelt against his wounded body in a soothing fashion...perhaps...it was bliss...at least it started off that way. It was as if one moment he was in the shower relaxing and the next he was standing in that space similar to his dream, confused, but having the oddest feeling he was connected to something...someone...

"Hello?"
 
"That sounds more like a 'prodigy'. I dunno though, he is young..." He drank some beer, "It is his decision. That field is tough too. He would either have to get money from a commission for being recommended by a company or he has to be completely independent. But... chicks do like big machines."

"Hiec zylir gryz dned puk lesnurim vomd lierm dniuh tusgm ehi mnhuficit. " Eve walked out of the side room, fully clothed like before but without the blood.

He laughed at what she said and nodded, "Of course!"


The woman from before was there with him. She picked a flower from the ground and smelled it, smiling at the scent. This place is beautiful, don't you think? She looked over at him and walked closer. Listen... I am not always going to be able to guide you and... you must protect me. She smiled at him, though it was a sad one.
 
"Cu fryd ypuid druca fru drehg draen telgc yna 'oajuh'c kevd du fusah?" When the words left Axle's lips he tilted his head toward Legiaus, who was completely oblivious to that which was being spoken. Instead he seemed to fall into the verbal joke almost instantly.

"I should totally sport that MW he made me...get a little bit more action going on...what do you think?" A playful grin plastered itself on Legiaus's face, followed by a lecherous smirk when he saw Eve walk out. He might have been damn near afraid of the woman...but damn was she smokin' hot!

Meanwhile in that space shared between summoner and summon, Xion watched her with a smile. The place was beautiful and part of him wondered if this was what Spira could be should they succeed; however, something didn't feel right...not with the sadness in her smile. He looked at her unsure of what to do, but tried to feel out an appropriate gesture...so he wrapped his arms around her and held her. The action didn't feel as awkward as he thought it would...this woman, whatever, whoever she was, felt like a part of him he should have known for years.

"...I don't always expect to be guided...I'll find my own way...the path that you're expecting me to fall into...but for now, please teach me enough to start. I'm lost...I cannot understand how I can even begin to start, what I am expected to do...if I am a summoner to what way will I find that?" He paused in his words, and pulled back, offering her a determined look...a passion that Eve commented on earlier. "Regardless...I'll keep my word....I'll save Spira...but tell me...are you, are you Alpha?"
 
Eve laughed. She laughed. What Axle said followed by Legaius' statement... it was too good. She held her stomach as she laughed and shook her head, walking over to the bar.

The man didn't know what to do- laugh, cry, weep, hide. He sipped his beer and put his attention back on the game.


She smiled at him, I cannot teach you everything, but it seems you have already learned about determination. You need the drive to succeed, or you will die. You have to want to win. Her figure began to fade. I have to go now. You will see... a part of me very soon. She smiled at him as she faded, the flower caught in the wind until it caught on Xions clothes.
 
Legiaus blinked, a sweatdrop and look of confusion written across his face. What's so funny I wonder... Shrugging, he thought maybe he might have missed a joke and went back to the screen.

Axle on the other hand flashed a cold, almost calculating smile at his friend's expense before looking back to the others. Moments like this were simply priceless.

The drive to succeed...the desire to win? But...don't you need a reason to live for something like that?[e] His thoughts seemed to fade as the world around them fell back to the reality of his shower; before he knew it the familiar sound of water was hitting his ears. "...I wonder...if Lady Yuna...if Seymour even...needed these things in their time?" With a sigh he went back to his shower, dried off when he was done and came back in everything but his shirt...seeing that there really wasn't anything left of it.

"Axle, Legiaus...I'm going to need to head to the ship and get some more cl...othes..." When he looked up and saw that Eve was in the room all cleaned up, and he was...half-naked the boy had one reaction. Immediate embarassment as his body became flustered, but he tried to keep it...not completely obvious. He failed. "U-u-um...we-well...I'll...be...going...?"

Axle looked up wondering what was making him so...different, until he noticed why. Perhaps, some teasing was in order. "I don't know, perhaps you should just sit back and watch the game with us for a moment...what do you think Legiaus?"

The two of them shared an almost evil glint in their eye...intent on tormenting the boy.

"...Help me..." Xion pleaded to no one.
 
Eve was busy mixing drinks behind the bar, but she did look up when the boys decided to start teasing Xion.

"Bod ud ezea gut. Nefi e piih." He held up a can without looking around, completely absorbed by the game going on onscreen.



Aimee looked up at the room when the explosions and sparks were done going off. She looked around and stood up, carefully pushing off the glass that stuck into her clothes. "Zned dni nicc vomd nebbirit?" She sighed and adjusted her glasses, then hurried over to the subject. The girl was completely unharmed, but the glass cover had shattered like everything else. Aimee made a call to a small group of workers, "U riit e scier ob shiz ert myli lomsci dy dhermbyhd yoh mopvisd 4748E dy dni urwuhleha wyh er iqdihrec teleki snisg ob."
 
Legiaus and Axle were about to try and drag the poor boy to the couch and force him to watch the game when they felt the familiar click of two guns cocking back, the barrels pointed underneath their chin. Xion wore a sickenly sweet smile on his face as he glanced toward Axle first and foremost. "E'mm keja oui du dra luihd uv drnaa du cdub daycehk sa, un E'mm bansyhahdmo ahcina oui'mm hajan ryja y lryhla du ryja lremtnah...pnudran...fa pudr ghuf E lyh kad y meddma dnekkan rybbo." He then turned his attention to Legiaus and blinked, "I have every picture of every technical sexual harassment you've ever done in front of us...that can be spread to certain eyes really quickly...now...I'm going to get a shirt, you're going to leave me alone, and we're going back to Luca...I need to see that girl..."

Without another word he turned around, attaching his weapons to his side and going back into the guest room for his blade. Those eyes lingered on the curvy figure of Eve, a soft sigh parting his lips as he made his exit before any more proof of embarassment could happen.

Axle and Legiaus had a blank stare written across their faces the whole time. For a series of five minutes they didn't dare move before cracking their own respective smirks; it would be even more fun to see him react like that in the future...even if they were sure he'd try to live up to his threats. "They grow up so fast... Legiaus..."

"That they do..."
 
"Ayo mnyoctr'd diemi nul dyy losn. Ni um kyurk dnhyokn e cyd." Eve wanted to chastise the group but decided against it. She finished mixing the drinks and set them down, "Mursi ayo'hi ecc ciefurk, U koimm U zucc nefi dy byoh dnimi tyzr dni theur."

The man, who was completely oblivious during Xion's outburst, looked over at Eve, "Zned!? Ry! Ciefi ud yfih dnihi- U zucc thurg dnil ecc."

Eve shook her head, "Ayo thorg."

He raised his hand, which held a beer, "En-En! U vomd cugi dy thurg! Dnihi um rydnurk zhyrk zudn dned."



Aimee watched the crew clean up while she tried to get back into the system. She trusted the others to transport the girl safely while she extracted the information files that were flashing on and off before the explosion. After she got them, she put them on a chip and stuck it into her watch. Aimee walked out of the room and hurried to the infirmary. She took a phone out of her labcoat pocket and made a phone call to the White Falconz ship.
 
Axle looked toward Eve and then back to Legiaus. Perhaps they were teasing him a bit excessively considering the changes that were happening so fast in his life, but...it was one of the only ways they knew to keep his mind off of it. "Perhaps...but...sometimes...it's good to cherish these moments. Annoying as they may be, he'll soon long for these simpler times."

Legiaus picked up on the tone of what was said based on Axle's reply, and allowed himself a grin. He couldn't have said things better himself. "Well, enough of that...we need to get to Luca if Xion's little outburst was any indication. Thanks for the hospitality...and maaaaan you're smokin' hot." Before he could be killed or regret his words, the man bolted out the door and after the youngest White Falconz member.

Axle sighed and simply offered a slight bow. "Until our paths cross again, should they need to."

By the time Aimee was making her call to the ship, Xion was just entering...and made his way to the bridge to bring up the communications link. "White Falconz...can I...oh, Aimee...is something up?"
 
Eve paused when Legaius spoke, but looked to Axle. She nodded to him and shut the door after they left.

"So, when are you going to see them again?"

"Myyr."

He groaned, "U el kyrre nefi dy degi sehi yw dni shiz ekeur- pemdehtm."

Eve waved him off and left the drinks on the counter.


"Yes, we had a bit of a breakthrough. Our friend had to be transferred to the infirmary but it looks like she is ok. I am working on transferring your funds and rank scores now. You guys should head back. Everything should be set up once you get here." She hung up after that and looked over the new scans. She did a double take and flipped, rapidly, through the papers. "Pheur zefim... ert e niehdpied." She had already discovered that the pulses from before were due to the energy swirling in the girls body but now, they were real.
 
"Affirmative...we'll be heading there shortly then." By the time the others were boarding the ship, Xion had all ready mapped out the coordinates. A small sigh crossed his lips as he tilted his head, looking at the two of them before taking to the sky. "You two are such a pain..."

Legiaus grinned and tilted his head, "But you love us!"

Axle simply moved to his chair and began to check the navigation courses, wind currents, and weather conditions. If he heard Xion he chose not to answer. It would be an interesting ride back to Luca hearing Legiaus fawn over Eve's hotness, Xion interestingly enough making some commentary, and Legiaus...wondering what they will find in store for them.

When the ship arrived back at the GullWing Organization, the trio immediately were greeted by subordinates of Aimee and found themselves being led to meet her. Xion...had a pit of anxiousness building in his gut, confusion, worry, and a bit of relief all at the same time. He felt as if things were going to become complicated very soon and there were things he needed to learn now.

Legiaus...prayed that Aimee was able to find something that would be beneficial rather than detrimental to the boy. Finding out that he was a summoner was one thing...and potentially releasing two powerful entities were another. At some point he would have to tell him about his Guado lineage, not knowing that Eve had revealed that sensitive information, and sighed.

Axle...he seemed to keep his actions reserved but there was something that was troubling him. It felt as if they were being watched to a certain extent; it was almost as if there were eyes surrounding their every move and it unnerved the composed individual. "Be on guard...despite what you feel..."
 
Aimee was at the front desk when the others arrived, "Hey, you made it!" Her clothes were a tad bit torn up but she looked ok. "So, I filed away your mission and you each made a good bit of gold. You also gained some rank points but- I'm sure that isn't at the top of your list right now." She stepped to the side and walked around the desk, "To update you- she completely ruined my scanning network." Aimee sighed and held an sad expression for a fraction of a second, "But! I was able to extract some of the data before everything shut down!" ^^

She started walking down the hall and expected them to follow, "The good news is that she's fine! We had to do some work so she wouldn't draw so much attention- with all of that jewelry on her you would think she's the next Shiva-" She laughed at what she thought to be a joke before continuing on, taking them around the corner, "Anyway- she's awake and you can see her." She stopped in front of a door, swiped a card, put in a code and lowered her glasses to give an ocular scan.

The doors opened into a nice, plush room that was covered in subtle colors. "we are trying to keep her semi-secluded due to her state of shock."

The girl was on her hands and knees on the floor, staring over the edge of a side table at what looked like a Mog shaped clock.

"She kept tripping over the first outfit we gave her, so we put her in this." Aimee had an affinity for pencil skirts anyway.
 
They followed Aimee without interupting her words. It seemed that there was something strange about the girl afterall, something that proved their fears. It was Axle who spoke up first, "what kind of information were you able to obtain?"

Legiaus watched as Xion walked over to the silver-haired girl, and turned his attention back to Aimee. To have destroyed all of her scanners would require an immense amount of energy; he didn't need to be an Al-bhed to understand that. "She's definitely connected to him being a Summoner isn't she?"

Xion walked to her side, gently kneeling down beside her as a hand moved out to push through her silver strands. It was odd...not even an hour ago he was torn between being comfortable and shy around a woman and now...he just felt protective, and concerned. "Do you remember me...?"
 
"Mostly about her physical, and quite ethereal, make-up." She frowned as she looked at the girl, obviously perplexed, "We still don't know anything about her." She crossed her arms and sighed dejectedly. "We think she is connected to that, yes, but not how or why."


The girl jumped when he touched her hair and she turned, staring at him with large, naive light blue eyes. His words sounded like a blur and she frowned. She leaned in closer, her eyes staring at his mouth. She put her hands up, her fingers curling, and she bit down on her lower lip.

"Uh-oh- Xion, you shoul-"

The girl grabbed his mouth and yanked his jaw open, peering into his mouth and searching for the source of the sound he just made.

Aimee touched her own forehead, "Oh boy... she did that to three of the employees- it took us fifteen minutes to get her off of one of them!"
 
"Ryja drana paah yho haf nabundc vnus dra aqlyjydeuh days dryd luimt ramb mayt du cusa haf vehtc? Drana'c cusadrehk eh dra yen...cusadrehk dryd ec ihcaddmehk yht ehvunsydeuh luimt pa dra gao eh luhvnuhdehk ed...frydjan ed ec." When Axle was done speaking he glanced towards the humorous scene infront of him. A small smirk crossed his lips before turning his head back to Legiaus and Aimee. "Do you think...this will be the start of another pilgrimage before it is over?"

Legiaus sighed and shrugged, "Beats me...but if it does he'll have a lot on his hands. We'll have to do our bests to protect him from more than just fiends and that Omega he was talking about when people find out who he is." Tilting his heads, he allowed his eyes to fall toward Aimee's chest, and smile... "but my beloved chest...I mean, my sweet rose will definitely find the answers for us!"

"Ahgh...Al...shop ishh..." Xion tried to move her hands from his mouth, and stop her curious inspection. It was a struggle but when he finally managed to pull her away he blinked. I wonder if this is what she meant when she said she won't always be there to guide me...that I will have to protect her? After a moment he tried to get her hands to rest in her lap, and tried to speak a little bit more slowly...he doubted it would help but he placed a hand on her cheek as he spoke.

"I'm Xion...the one who set you free...the one who has to protect you...do you remember? Can...you feel me?" Maybe it was stupid, but maybe...just maybe he could get through a little bit? It was weaker but she still gave him the same serene feeling, and if for a moment, only a moment he was able to channel the mystical energies of the fayth around him he hoped something would click.
 
"U hisiufit myli lyhi tede pod ud um piurk dhermcedit." She glanced at the girl and Xion before addressing Axle, "Precisely." She pouted/frowned when Legaius mentioned her breasts. She raised her hand and was about to start yelling at him when she received a buzz from her watch. She looked at it, then glared at Legaius, "Dni timihd! Lehg la zyhtm!" She walked out of the room and put a bead into her ear, "Zned um ud?"


She fought quite hard to keep his mouth open but she was not physically strong, so it was easy to subdue her. Her cheek was warm to the touch, but did not get hotter. She stared at him as he spoke, her eyes staring at his mouth before looking into his eyes. She blinked a few times before smiling and thrust her shoulders against his torso, hugging him and beaming like a child.


"Ud meam dned Ecbne nem dnhii wyhlm. Dni tideucm ehi orscieh ert iesn wyhl um ziegih dner dni yhukurec."

Aimee groaned, "Dned zyoct iqbceur e cyd... nyz losn lyhi ser ayo dhermcedi?"

"Myli yw dni ulbyhderd behdm ehi wetit- ky wukohi. Pod dnihi ehi ecmy e wiz buisim lummurk. Uw dni diel ser kid ur tiibih, yh uw U ky ur lamicw, U ser wurumn ud. Iudnih zea, ud um kyurk dy symd ayo."

Aimee nodded and smiled, "Yw syohmi. U zucc mirt dni lyria dy ayoh essyord ewdih zi nerk ob. Cid li gryz zned ayo bcer dy ty ert U zucc mirt e pyrom ayoh zea."
 
Xion was taken off guard by the sudden child like affection and couldn't help but smile. She seemed so innocent in this state; it briefly made him wonder if this was the type of thing a parent liked to protect in their children...or a brother in their sister...or.. "I doubt you remember me then, but don't worry...I'll keep my promise to you...Alpha."

He gently ran his fingers through her hair, allowing her to take comfort in his position. Things were going to become complicated...she wasn't going to be able to save them like last time... "This time I have to...be the strong one don't I?"

Legiaus watched the scene for a moment before turning around slightly, and leaving the room. He couldn't understand what she was saying, but he could read her body language rather well... "To the point...tell me, what's the worst outcome you could expect from this. On a political standpoint you'll have to reveal the existence of Alpha, Omega, and ...the new summoner soon...what's the worst backlash we can expect from Spira that you can foresee?"
 
She rubbed her cheek against his chest, oblivious to whatever he was saying. She did know that she felt safe with him though.



Aimee sighed when approached by Legaius, "I don't know." She tapped her foot, "But every political group will struggle to gain control of Xion- just like in the old days. Or, someone will find out about Alpha, or the girl. That is why we put her in something more casual. If she is Alpha and people find out," She pinched the bridge of her nose, "I believe she is the source of all creation- imagine what someone would do with that?" She looked at Legaius, "And Omega! If he decides, for whatever reason, so side with a group- that could be catastrophic- even for the group!" She shook her head.

"Anything can happen at this point. Expect chaos." She shook her head and turned toward the door. "How is he taking it in there?"
