It's like an addicting maze, the music you make...  x x ,Like fragmented magic on endless repeat . -------------------------------------------------------------- [/color][/right] Kuja stood on the outskirts of the castle as he looked upon it. He began to think to himself, it hadn't been to long ago when the queen had come with her troops to kill Kuja. He smirked at the thought of it , what a fool she was . She deserved it, she had it coming sooner or later, and besides if it weren't for her hate and rage he wouldn't be able to go into trance.
He brushed some of the hair from his face as he gave a narcissistic smile . "The past is the past, the elephant lady may be dead but her troops may still have a bounty on my head". He snickered a bit . It wasn't that he was afraid he just didn't want to cause an uproar, not just yet. He leaped off the roof and into an alleyway as he began to walk towards the castle.
He began to think aloud while walking "Has the canary stay true to her word, or has power corrupted her as well.". Kuja then stopped as he looked up at the castle, he had gotten closer than he thought he would. But as he looked ahead. "Guards everywhere". He narrowed his eyes as he peeked from behind a stone pillar . He placed his hand to his chin as he began to think again, If anything the princess , now queen wouldn't be sitting around the castle. He began to remember all the attempts the "elephant lady" had at trying to make her stay there. But where could she be, he knew she was somewhere in this city of course. Even though he didn't know why, something was urging him to find her. Words: 290 Lyrics: Chemical Soda - Saori@Destiny |

In my dearest memories....  x x I see you reaching out for me...... --------------------------------------------------------------
[/right] The princess.....now queen of Alexandria darted back and forth in the palace, trying to get away from Beatrix and Steiner who were pestering her with the daily roster of things to do. When she had finally eluded them up in her chambers by locking the door, Garnet gave a small sigh and quickly went to change out of her queen attire. Taking her silver circlet off her head she frowned lightly to it remembering her mother for a few moments, of course it had only taken a trip to the old summoner village to spark her memories of whom she really was. The truth was revealed to her by Dr.Tot that she had been found by her real mother's dead body, in a boat that had come to shore in Alexandria. She had resembled the dead princess of the nation and was put in her place, that was the past and she was thinking way ahead into the future. She was the queen and it was her duty now to take care of her people, of course Garnet will never forget all the friends she met on her adventure with Zidane. Thinking of Zidane the young queen wondered where he was, probably with Tantalus at Ruby's theater. Garnet had thought she lost Zidane after the final battle with Kuja, but he showed up some years later to the castle with the group to perform and showed himself to her. Although she was still young Garnet knew she couldn't anchor that monkey down to be king of a country right away, so they agreed not to rush into a marriage right away although they love eachother. Putting the circlet away and changing out of the dress, she put on the familiar orange jumpsuit and white shirt underneath. Putting on her white mage cloak she snuck out hearing the commotion still going on about finding her, mingling in with some servants she quickly left the castle and went out into the square of the city. "Free at last, enough of queenly duties for now".It was time for her to have some fun, real fun. Garnet had learned so much on her adventures and nothing could keep he contained to the palace, she could summon her staff if needed if she ran into any trouble. Unlike her late mother the queen she was not obsessed with the powers of her eidolons, and had been helping those in Lindblum and other places to recover after the war and damage that was done. Her Uncle Cid often wrote to her to tell her how things were going in Lindblum, and also how the whole relationship was much better with Helga. Peeking around a corner she made her way across the square and headed to the center of it, she would first check the theater and if Zidane was not there she would check every inch of Alexandria. Little did she know, that a familiar person lurked nearby. WORDS: 492 TAG: Kuja LYRICS: Melodies of Life -- Final Fantasy IX[/blockquote][/size] |

It's like an addicting maze, the music you make... x x ,Like fragmented magic on endless repeat . -------------------------------------------------------------- [/color][/right] Kuja decided to leave from the radius of the castle as he began to walk towards the various shops and things . This was nothing like Treno, and none of these places was anything like the auction house. But an idea struck him as he saw the various robes and things being sold. A disguise would serve perfect, it would allow him to move around easier. Not that any of these people noticed him, but for the fact that someone would, his current motivation was to stay as low key as possible, for the time being. Even though he had shown remorse for his actions towards the party some years ago , it was still in Kuja's nature to cause death, afterall he was the angel of death, and the fact of what was left of the worlds to exist without him still ate at him. Either way Kuja shook the thought from his head as he walked into one of the nearby item stores, buying the nicest robe he could find to go over his current clothing. Even though it wasn't luxury enough for his tastes it would have to do. He quickly handed over the gil to the shopkeeper and walked out of the shop , avoiding conversation , it really wasn't worth his time . He began to proceed to the town square as he looked around for any potential threats, and of course the princess. Looking around at all the faces , none familiar all of these people looked the same to him, no matter what kingdom he was in. He began to think of all the trapped souls in the invincible as he mumbled under his breath . "How disgusting.." Kuja moved some of the hair from his face to get a better view of things. and then he saw it, her that robe, he had seen it before when the princess was running around with Zidane. He was sure of it. He began to slowly approach the princess, the crowd seeming to part as he walked through the commotion. Words:344 Lyrics: Chemical Soda - Saori@Destiny |

In my dearest memories.... x x I see you reaching out for me. --------------------------------------------------------------
[/right] It's not that she didn't like being queen it was just that there were too many duties and requests from her people, before she had agreed to take the throne she was free to fly away like she had always wanted. A canary free of her guilded cage and no longer bound to one place, that's why she still yearned for adventure and by golly she was going to get it. That's why she was seeking Zidane today she wanted to just leave the kingdom and maybe just run out on the open plains or go see her Uncle Cid, explore a ruin or maybe fight some monsters. And probably once Steiner and Beatrix couldn't find her they would know where she is and come looking for her, after all they were shouting out for her in the palace as she hid from them. Saying she had this and this on the agenda for the day, boring things. Changing into her orange jumpsuit with the red boots and white ruffled shirt, also wearing the royal pendant and mage robe she quickly snuck out of the palace. Keeping her face hidden as she passed some guards patrolling, Garnet made her way towards the theater to see if Zidane was there. Hopefully Tantalus was still in Alexandria and seeing Ruby, otherwise she would need to travel all the way to Lindblum to go to their hideout there. Before making her way into the alley where the theater was, she stopped and glanced behind her getting that feeling someone was watching her or rather following her. Not seeing anyone though she continued on and finally got to the theater going inside, pushing back the hood the young queen frowned lightly. Just as she thought no one was here and not even Ruby who owned this place, maybe she stepped out for a few minutes. After all that girl was always looking for fresh talent to help make this place a success. Guess she had no choice but to head to Lindblum, and that meant she needed a airship. Garnet couldn't fly one all by herself so she needed to think, with a sigh she pulled her hood back up and left the theater. As she went to head out of the alleyway the young queen put her hands to her lips in a gasp, her eyes went wide as she saw the crowd part to let a familiar person walk towards her. Guess she had been right that someone was watching her, rather following her every move. But this could not be possible there was just no way, Zidane had told her that Kuja died that day after the battle they fought. Though Kuja did save them in the end, still she couldn't forget all the things he had done. But why was he in Alexandria of all places, could he be here to kidnap her or steal her eidolons again. Garnet felt herself rooted on the spot, frozen with just a twinge of fear in her eyes. All she could do was wait to see what he would do.

It's like an addicting maze, the music you make... x x ,Like fragmented magic on endless repeat . -------------------------------------------------------------- [/color][/right] It's not that Kuja was exactly plotting revenge . The events of the past had left him somewhat puzzled about his existence as the true angel of death. Even though in the end he has acquired the Ultimate strength of trance. Zidane had reached the stage long before he had, the surge of emotions baffled him on the inside. He began to think to himself as he kept his cold glare affixed on the queen. She seemed to almost be frozen in her tracks seeing him. This made him feel in control of the situation, being the egotistical schemer he is . He loved nothing more than to see others tremble at his presence after all it is his nature to provoke war and death, but the queen of Alexandria? This was priceless. He continued to walk through the crowd in no rush seeing as she wasn't going anywhere. Finally standing a few feet from the princess he spoke in a soft eloquent almost sarcastic tone. "What's wrong little canary?, you seem like you've seen a ghost". He snickered a bit brushing the feather from his face as he took a few steps to Garnet placing his hand on her face as he ran his hand across her soft cheek. He then spoke awhile , "I know it's been awhile but that's no way to greet a familiar face, I'm almost heartbroken." . he snickered a bit again . He began to think to himself . "After all the time that has gone by she doesn't seem to have to changed a bit, her actions at least." He kept his eyes fixed on her awaiting her response . He doubted she was going to try and cause an uproar around all these people. Unless she wanted them to die.. and he knew she was all for saving her people. It was the reason all the citizens of Alexandria liked her so much . He was using this to his advantage, constantly scheming and analyzing the environment around them Words:327 Lyrics: Chemical Soda - Saori@Destiny |

[/right] Garnet had no idea how to really react to seeing Kuja, as he slowly made his way through the crowd towards her. The people just seemed to part the way almost like an ocean, and the young queen could see that most of them had shock on their faces where as a few just stood as still as statues. Garnet had not forgotten about what happened here so long ago and neither did her people. It was still fresh in some minds and like a wound that refused to close up. True he had a change of heart right after the final battle with them, safely leading them out of the Iifa tree but still she held some bitterness towards Kuja. After all it had been him who destroyed Alexandria and the eidolon Alexander, he had ordered that her eidolons would be taken out of her so that her mother could use them for destruction and she was placed under a sleeping spell. In a way she could forgive Kuja, but it was just so hard. A lump in her throat was beginning to form, and started to feel nervous as he got closer and closer to her. Finally when he was but a few feet away from her, she heard him speak. "A ghost you say, I guess you can call it that." Garnet kept her voice stern and tryed to hide the fact she was shaking like a leaf on the inside. The young queen had not been expecting to even see Kuja again and now that he was here, it made her curious as to why.....why is he here and what could he be up to this time round. Upon hearing him call her canary she simply gave a small frown, how she despised that pet name he gave her. Her eyes glanced over to the people standing around, wondering what their queen was going to do about this man who had suddenly come back from the dead. She could summon a eidolon to drive him out, no......it would only cause panic and do damage to the city. Again he began to speak once more, she had her mind running with thoughts that she hadn't realized his hand run across her soft cheek. Smacking his hand away from her, and stepping back her expression changed to one of anger. Where fear had been only a few minutes ago it had now been replaced with hate and anger. "How did you think I would greet you, with smiles and friendly manners. No! Now leave Alexandria". Garnet didn't want to summon anything nor did she want to cause an uproar, the young queen knew how powerful Kuja was and she couldn't bare to see her beloved kingdom destroyed again.....no not again. How she wished Zidane was here or any of the friends she had made when she was on her grand adventure before. TAG: Kuja LYRICS: Melodies of Life -- FFIX WORDS: 483[/blockquote][/size] |

It's like an addicting maze, the music you make... x x ,Like fragmented magic on endless repeat . -------------------------------------------------------------- [/color][/right] He snickered a bit at her agreeing with his first comment, he liked to play on this girls emotions, she was so easy to stir up and her being queen added to Kuja's ego of being able to bring this much tension to royalty. He saw the frown come across her face as he responded "Did I strike a nerve?" continuing with his eloquent arrogant tone . as a smile came across his face . He could see her eyes fixed on him, he had never seen her this serious before, becoming queen must of matured this girl he thought to himself .
Her eyes, seemed to be analyzing him as he saw her glace quickly switch to some of the passerby's he glanced over he shoulder with a smile , her empathy for her people was great and knowing this he would play on that emotion. Shortly after rubbing his hand across her cheek it was smacked away followed by her harsh words. He glanced at her for a moment and then began to snicker. "Oh my, we sure have come a long way ". He said pretty much ignoring what she had just said, after all this all was just a game to him at this point.
He looked at her as he spoke again, "I'll be nice and ignore what you just said.." his tone changing becoming a little more serious and menacing as he continued ",as I propose somewhat of a truce". he finished trying to sound persuasive as he could, its not like it really mattered she would go along with it , he'd make sure of it .
It's not that he wanted to spend time with Garnet, he more wanted to understand , how was it that this girl helped Zidane achieve trance? Was a mystery to him that prodded at him for the last couple of years. "You will show me around Alexandria , no guards, no tricks , .. and nobody dies, leaving your dear kingdom out of harms way... for now" he said sarcastically holding his hand out in front of him and then to his side, as he re-fixed his gaze on the queen tilting his head to the side awaiting her answer "So..?"

Always I wanna be with you x x And Make believe with you --------------------------------------------------------------
[/right] Did he strike a nerve, oooo he struck a nerve alright. But in all honestly what grounds did she have to be hostile towards Kuja right now. None...yeah that's right, none. So far he had been on his best behavior and it seems he just followed her around the kingdom. Actually how long had he been following her for, since she had left the palace or longer than that. Of course as soon as he touched her cheek she instantly slapped his hand away, no one was allowed to do that unless it was Zidane. For the longest time her heart had always belonged to the thief of Tantalus and that was never going to change. "Yes I have come a long way for your information, a very long way. Ever since mother died I have been trying to rule this country the best I can". It wasn't easy sometimes to rule a kingdom, but she had Beatrix and Steiner there by her side to help her along the way. Had he ignored what she just said to him, well that didn't surprise the young queen one bit. The way he spoke now seemed to hold a more serious tone to it, not the way he was speaking before. Garnet knew not to agitate Kuja, he could flatten Alexandria in the blink of an eye. She quirked a brow at his next statement, a truce he wanted to form a truce with her. "I suppose we could make some sort of truce". At least for now, she somewhat didn't still trust him. And looking back to the people still all having their eyes on Kuja, finally broke the silence that had fallen over the square and went about their buisness. Lowering her hood on her mage jacket, she let her long ebony hair flow down her back. Giving Kuja a glare at what he asked she simply nodded to him. "Very well Kuja, no guards, no tricks. But I expect the same from you, otherwise your word will mean nothing and I shall strike at you" Could the angel of death keep his word she hardly doubted it, but this was a risk she was going to have to take. After all he just wanted to be showed around right, she had her word and she was hoping he would keep his. No one dies if both sides keep their word in this matter. With his 'so' she simply led the way, why did she have to show him around Alexandria anyways. Garnet thought he knew this country like the back of his hand, since he did after all spend alot of time twisting her mother's mind. Bending Brahne to his will to do his bidding, and turning her into a monster. And yet Garnet had found out the queen was not her real mother anyways, her real name was Sarah and her real mother had died when she was very young. Her mother had escaped with her across the ocean, from the village of summoners to try and protect her. And through her travels she had met another summoner like herself, Eiko Carol. There were still so many things she wanted to find out about her homeland, and for some time now she had been wanting to travel to see Doctor Tot about that. He knew alot about the summoners, well so did Eiko so either person could tell her all she needed to know. Pushing those thoughts aside for now, Garnet led him back into the square her identity revealed to all. So much for trying to be sneaky and unseen, the young queen tryed her best to avoid all the guards since she didn't want to go back to the palace right now. So as soon as she gave him the grand tour of the entire kingdom, Garnet stopped near the gate leading out into the vast wilderness that lay beyond. "I gave you the tour, now i'm leaving to Treno"TAG: Kuja WORDS: 747 LYRICS: Always -- Erasure[/blockquote][/size] |
