So, many of us come from different worlds, and a bunch come from Earth at different points in time...or different versions of Earth.

I guess that could lead to some culture clashes, like that Dating Auction. Some of us are more familiar with arranged marriages. I'm from [ 19th Century name for the part of Central Asia he comes from.] and I think I've heard some people refer to the time period as Victorian, for some Queen in England or whatever. That faraway place had nothing to do with my clan.

[ Unaware of the Great Game, that England had going on with Russia.]

Many of you haven't even heard of where I lived. Maybe the name changed? Or it's just part of the Russian Empire? They're way too big.

Why do I sometimes hear words in different languages anyway? Isn't there something translating whatever we say? I doubt anyone speaks Kazakh.

I had a point with this. Since we all come from places with different cultural standards,it might be better to try to keep an open mind. I think that's part of why Naoto was trying to get a better understanding of our worlds.

[ a video feed cuts in and out while there's screaming being heard from beyond the camera. Albel appears a couple of times, standing in front of a large Heartless that looks like a dragon ]

I said, get back! [ Albel barks at the others. the video finally focuses, showing the snowy campsite of the soldiers. Albel raises his claw at the Heartless, practically waiting for it to attack him first as he starts to make a harsh laugh, mostly to himself and slides a foot backward ]

I'll make a new coat out of you!

[ the video goes out again when Albel's seen running in for an attack on the heartless. after a few moments, the video cuts on again and an annoyed looking Albel is seen in the video. he doesn't seem to be beaten up too much, just a couple of cuts and bruising here and there. the camera moves as he sits down in the snow, scoffing ]

Bah! The dragons back home put up much more of a fight than this fool did.

[ he glances behind his shoulder at some of the soldiers who look like they're amused ]

Idiots... How was I supposed to know that the beast would just disappear when it was defeated? Now I'll need to find another animal to make a coat out of.

[ The screen flickers on and a young man with snowy hair and ice blue eyes appears. He doesn't say anything for a moment and the expression on his face looks one part confused one part angry, and generally worried. He bites his lip, and then finally speaks. ]

I'm looking for this girl. She's got red hair and she's wearing a white robe and a gold pendant...

[ The worry in his voice elevates and he looks away for a moment. He's far more concerned about the fate of this one girl, this one person that he really honestly loves, then about the fact that apparently his world has just been destroyed. Because... she kind of is his world? Holy shit that sounds cheesy and he was only just thinking it. He kind of wants to smack himself for coming up with such a bad romance novel romance novel cliche but manages to refrain from doing as much. ]

Look, her name is Kyrie. Has anyone seen her?

[ She HAD to be around somewhere, right? And if she wasn't... well Nero wasn't exactly sure what he was going to do. ]

Or tell someone tell me how to get back, I mean my world isn't completely destroyed-destroyed, right? There has to be something left that I can search through... I really don't care if it's dangerous or anything.

Help, theif!

[It's a normal day in Agrabah and there's a theft in action! The commotion causes the market to ease and quiet as the shoppers stare at the armed thief. There are no imperial guards in sight and just as the frantic vendor was about to loose hope, a man dressed in black appeared across the thief's path.]

Going somewhere?

[The thief attacks but Kanda's skill with a blade over power's the poor man, he tears the rope that held the satchel the thief had hid the jewels he stole and stood in front of it just in case the guy was stupid enough to go for it. He did and Kanda reacted. He disarms the guy and kicks him in the gut throwing him backwards.]

Nice try. Bastard.

[The crowd cheered! Guards appeared and grabbed the thief just as Kanda picked up the satchel to hand it back to the vendor when it tried for another escape. This time it reached desperately for Kanda's hand squeezing at his fore arm. Kanda winced, grunting in pain before backhanding the guy off and having the guards drag him away. He didn't hear the vendor speaking, he was gripping onto his arm. The vendor watched him offering him a seat but Kanda refused preferring to keep on walking.]

I'm fine, be a little more careful next time.

[He rubbed his arm trying to hide the fact it was hurting. The pain was obvious in his eyes.]

[The video feed started up abruptly, viewers were met with a close up of the contented and smiling face of Washu. The camera tilted back and forth as she struggled to get the thing situated on top of a log. Once she was satisfied with that, she stepped away from it and moved to stand beside a large object covered by a sheet.]

Greetings everyone~

[Giving a light wave, she appeared eager to continue.]

I have an important announcement to make! [Leaning forward, the toes of her shoes sunk a little further in the sand] After tireless days of research, endless days of tinkering, and a series of small-scale tests..

I am proud to present..

[Pausing for effect, she griped the edge of the cloth and yanked it off in a flourish]

NOX AETERNA!

[The sheet obscured the view of the object a moment longer before it completely fell to the ground. There was something familiar about the mechanized monstrosity...]

 


This may look like any ordinary Gummi ship, but I assure you that it is not. We are all aware that the Gummi ships run on happy thoughts... traditionally but for this experiment.. I reversed the polarity~! [She added with a wink]

She hasn't been ... test flown so to speak, yet.... So are there any brave souls pilots out there willing to help make history? [She needed to make it sound reallllllly good, since an untested space craft could just as easily crash and burn] Don't let this opportunity pass you by~!
 
[And why yes, there was a logo of a crab on it..]

Listen up ya'll. [ aj's not entirely sure who exactly she's supposed to be addressing. ] Didn't yer momma ever tell ya' that it ain't nice to kidnap anypony. I just ain't got the time to be playing any of yer silly games. I have work to do around the farm and it ain't going to get done on it's own. [ a smirk as she looks aside to mutter the next bit under her breath. ] ...at least not without ol' Applejack there anyways.

[ clears her throat and returns her attention to the communicator. ] So c'mon, ain't there anypony going to confess 'cause I'd really like to get back home. [ the situation appears to finally be sinking in. ] ...this here better be some kind of a joke! [ stamps her hoof. she might be getting just a little bit frustrated. ] Big Macintosh stop it this instant! Dash? ...anypony?

[ a sigh as she looks at dog sitting by her hooves. ] Winona, I have a feeling we're not in Ponyville anymore.

[Kanda hadn't gotten out of bed, at least not since he had found his way on it. The feed was on, more than likely an accidental touch as Kanda went to slam whatever was making noise on his dresser. There wasn't much on the feed, Kanda's bedroom was dark and empty. The only actual furniture was the bed and the nightstand. The sheets were pulled over Kanda up to his waist, his back was exposed. It looked terrible. Bruises, scars, and a lot of raw flesh. He didn't enjoy laying on his side so he turned slowly onto his back. He grunted.]

I guess I'm not going to work.

[From somewhere out of the feed, Allen's golden gollum Timcampy came flying over the dozing exorcist. It had grown in size, probably ate another cat again, and flopped on Kanda's stomach. It didn't give the poor guy a warning, it just landed square on his stomach. Kanda winced and gasped for air before lifting himself up on his elbows and giving the thing a stern look.]

What the hell do you think you're doing! You don't just do things like that without a warning, idiot! Who told you to come in here in the first place! You're just as annoying as that stupid- [And Kanda froze. The poor Gollem was crying. That was a lot of tears for such a little guy. He hesitated. He made it cry. Again.]

H-Hey, knock it off. Why are you crying. You need to stop doing this, Tim.

[Video / Underworld Action ]

Ok, I get it, I do, went a little too far with the ‘taking over worlds’ thing…

[At first one can only hear Hades voice and see the dark and gloomy interior of the Underworld. ]

So Dante, come on, let’s talk this over a bit.

[There is a clank of chain as whomever is using the recording device tries to figure out how to move the camera. There is even a brief glimpse of an eyeball as the creature looks inside the lens to see if the thing is working. ]

We’re both reasonable people here, well, not people per se but… we can work this out. What do you want? There must be something… help finding some one, success in your business… Oh! A new jacket?

[And there the camera finally focuses on Hades who appears to have been chained to his throne in the Underworld. Now for those who know their Greek mythology they should recognize the golden chains that even a God can’t break. Dante and his team successfully managed to put Hades out of commission for a while. ]

Come on, let’s talk, what do you say?

Idiot beansprout, where the hell are you!

[The underworld was a battle zone at the moment and Kanda was busy doing what he did best: schooling things. He was still injured from his previous battles so his movements were highly compromised but that was never a reason for him to quit. He was a stubborn exorcist, he was still on his feet. Breathing hard, Kanda was trying to keep his ground. He wasn't backing off even if he was mildly overwhelmed at the moment. The enemies surrounding him were a clear testament to that. Some made a move at him and he slipped underneath their grasps just in time to give their general direction a good and firm slice before catching his breath again alert for the next move.]

Tch, the first thing you tell him not to do and he's probably doing it. If you're listening to this, we need to regroup. I know you, stop running ahead! [We can't afford to have you hurt, Allen! Bad things happen when you're hurt! He's moving forward trying to ease up the load of people following him.]

Hotaru, grab your friends and go home. No excuses. Lenalee, wherever you are-

[And he's struck, it sends him flying off somewhere towards the side off-screen. He drops the communicator. It lands just in time to show him struggling to get to his feet. This wasn't looking very good.]

[ Albel knew this place too well already. there were people here that he couldn't stand and then people here that he didn't want to even speak with. he hated this place. he hated it more than home.

at least in Airyglyph, he was still "loved" and told how amazing he was even if he had failed. even if he had let the enemy win, he was still the best. unchallenged and undefeated in the eyes of his people. here, there was no one. not even the idiots that he couldn't stand to tell him to do things or the king to give him new missions. nothing.

Albel was on the roof of a building in Traverse Town. he still didn't have anywhere to stay, so he tended to stay wherever he could. after his battle with Aqua, he tried to get as far away from everyone and the tournament as he could. he didn't want to hear about any of it either and made sure that the moogles around him knew that. the wounds and burns that he had gotten from the battle before only seemed to be getting worse. though he had been used to being burned before, he didn't even wince at any of it.

in the darkness, the video showed Albel sitting on the roof as he unstrapped his gauntlet from his arm. he let it fall off with a few quiet clanks as he looked at the bandaged arm underneath. without having anything else to bandage himself with, he began to unravel the top bandages on his arm and then take the wrappings out of his hair. he started to wrap the burns on his leg and his other arm, mumbling to himself angrily ]


Stupid woman. When I get better, I'll slit her throat.

To those who missed out on the Hades Cup, I took the liberty of recording the fights. Sure, plenty of you already know who won in the first round, but it still shows some of the competitors abilities. If Peter Pan ever shows up, he'll be sorry he missed this.

[ Billy would have recorded the boat ride, but he was still shaking in fear at the time.]

There was also some other entertainment.

[There is a video ofDem Bones performing their new hit single. The camera was able to pick up the dancing spirits..

Renge interviewing Hades also counts as entertainment.
]

Miss Renge Houshakuji also provided the battle commentary.

[ The videos of the battles are rather straightforward. Billy says as little as possible. He isn't close enough to pick up any of the fighters' dialogue. Renge's comments are clearly heard, though.

Round one! Fight!

There are some abilities that are too quick or flashy for the camera to pick up, but overall it's a solid recording. Anyone hoping for upskirt shots, would be sorely disappointed. Violence is the main focus for this pirate.

[The video turns on to show a small apartment, barren of any real personality save a Blitzball in one corner with a sword perched up next to it. Tidus looks lost in thought.]

People have always asked if you feel any different or older, but I don’t feel any different at nineteen than I did yesterday.

[In reality, he had almost forgotten. It didn’t seem to matter much when his world was still gone, and the one person he wanted around wasn’t. Did they even count when he was going to be gone back on Spira? Then there was the darkness incident with Terra. It had been horrible, so much so that he could finally understand why so many people acted so afraid of it. At the same time, he couldn't give up, could he? It would be wrong. Now that he knew the risks, he would have to be careful.

These thoughts were annoying, and in a way, dangerous, so he needed to take his mind off of them somehow.]


I’m going to go for a swim before the next round. If anyone wants to join me, feel free.

[Edward stands, arms crossed, brows knit in front of a handfull of moogles that surround him in a semi circle. A last, unseen moogle is holding the communicator open, broadcasting this exchange in video. The blonde haired boy's frown is set sternly as he eyes the moogles in front of him silently, almost as if he's trying to absorb what they've just tried to tell him. The moogles fidget uncomfortably under his gaze. Eventually, Ed shouts back at the moogles, the last half of a unheard conversation.]

What the hell do you mean my world is gone!? A whole world can't just disappear over night! [the moogles jump at the outburst but one shakes its head in response, holding up its tiny paws.]

Sorry, Kupo! But it's true... Your world was lost to the darkness. There's nothing you can do right now!

[Ed scowls, his expression twisting slightly as he struggles to hold back the panic that's trying so hard to settle in his stomach. Nothing he can do? He's not about to listen to that.] NOTHING I can do? Do I look like an idiot to you!? What the hell are you anyway? Is Alphonse here? Winry? Did you assholes drag them both into this mess? Tell me where they are, damnit! [The one moogle shakes its head, while the others slink behind him. This guy shouts a little bit too much for them.]

Tch. [He glances down at the hotel key and money in his free hand before clenching it tightly.] Damnit... After all of this, I'm stuck here with no way out? I'm not going to just sit around and wait for something to happen. If you think that's what's going to happen you're wrong!

[Edward glowers up at the floating device recording all of this, and scowls. He says nothing more before reaching up and snatching the device, effectively shutting it off. Giving the moogles one last stern and disapproving glare he shoves the communicator into his pocket and stalks down the street towards the hotel. Passers by might notice a somewhat short statured blonde haired boy in a deep red coat.]

Ahha, I realized this might seem odd, but has anyone seen a dog like creature running around anywhere? He react's to the name Kurogane and has a really bad and disgusting habit of carrying around dead fish.

It seems while I was out this morning, he managed to get out and go walkabouts and has yet to come back to the store. I'm worried that he might be lost somewhere or he's somehow managed to get aboard a Gummi ship.

Anyway if you see him anyway, I will be thankful if you let me know.

[There's a pause for a few moments.]

In other news the cafe and bar are doing really well and it will soon be coming up to it's year anniversary since the cafe was first opened, so I'm thinking of maybe throwing some big event to celebrate and I would like to hear suggestions if you have any.

[The view of the moogle can be seen holding the device in it's little paws, before him at the Gummi station stood a young blond girl who appeared to be taking a closer look at the ships.]

Such engineering~ I wonder who could create such a thing or even more so, what exactly is it they have built here. It's nothing like I'm use to back at home.

[She paused, placing a finger upon her chin, tilting her head and focusing on it some more. The moogling holding the device, her munny and key just stood there trying to get her attetion.]

I wonder what it could be made from, maybe some kind of hard steel, or maybe something stronger.

E-Excuse me, kupo.

[This caused Winry to finally turn her head around and look down towards the little creature, her eyes unsure of what exactly you were seeing.]

What are you?

[She went and knelt down slightly, taking a closer look at the creature.]

I'm a moogle, kupo. I came to give you a few things since you arrived here not long ago.

[She turned her head. She remembers being on the train after seeing Edward and Al, and wound up here with so far no explanation, so the only thing she had to wonder...]

Hey, have you seen a guy with blond hair, wears a red coat and is pretty short? He's usually hanging around with his brother who wears a giant piece of amour and makes the other guy look shorter.

[The moogle just shook his head before finally getting it's change to explain what was going on and all Winry could do was sit there and listen, her eyes looking quietly towards the floor.]

No, thank you, ladies! You’ve been a big help, seriously, couldn’t have done it without you…

We will have to do this again, real soon.

Now…

[Turning to face the camera.]

Wha? Is this thing on already?
I know you hero-types have been having fun up there with your parties and fits of truth telling, but come on, you have to be tired of it all by now? What you need is a little excitement, a little adventure, what you need is the HADES CUP!

This year it will be held in the Underdrome for even more excitement and thrills than the last Hades Cup.

Where is she? You can't hide her from me forever. Where is Hikaru!?

[A childlike voice flooded onto the feed. The video only caught snatches of a wispy figure as she glided around the city.]

I- can't feel her anywhere.

[A touch of panic was filtering into the voice.]

Mother either.

If you would just let me explain, Kupo! [A moogle panted trying to catch it's breath. Finally coming to a halt the populace could get a better glimpse of the latest arrival. Her long pink hair billowed out behind her, her features were innocent enough, she was wearing a body suit and armor. Her strangest feature might have been her pointed elfen-like ears.]

Where are they? [She repeated.] I- I don't want to be alone.. not ... not again..

[Nova's voice turned thready as if she might start crying. Then without warning she turned on the moogle and drew a blade made out of light out thin air and brandished it toward the moogle]

Take me to her, NOW! Take me to Hikaru!

[Kanda's in a mood. Then again he's always in a mood. Today, he's a particularly angry teenage boy. He's in his living room with one of Renge's books lying open in front of him. He's reading, a rare sight to catch Kanda doing this, with a very stern expression. Every once in a while he turns the page.]

I don't sound like that. [He changed the page.] That idiot. She doesn't even know what she's doing. It's like she didn't even bother to-

[And he paused. Something on this particular page made him freeze his blue eyes staring at the page. He turned it, and again, and again and some more. The entire time his face started getting redder, he was sitting up a bit straighter. He started going through the remainder of the pages in a silent fury before pausing. He had to backtrack, something obviously caught his eye and the red got deeper. He slammed it shut and punched the table.]

I'm going to kill her! I'm going to kill anyone who reads this, if I so much as catch you with this in hand I'll- Tori, don't!

[His pet seemed to find this book interesting. Kanda wasn't sure if it could even read but it sure liked to think she did. Kanda walked over and pulled the book out of it's wings.]

Yuuki, Yuuki, Yuuki! Oy, day and night, whining and complaining… I miss Yuuki, where is Yuuki, when are we going to find Yuuki… Enough already!

I don't complain that much....
[Openly. Clearly Hades is blowing it all out of proportion.]
Once I accomplish my goals I’ll have no cause to trouble you further…

[Hades voice takes on a light almost gentle tone. ]
No, no you don’t… You only mention it…
[His voice flares as his flames rise with fury and toast anything that is too close to the God‘s explosive temper. ]
EVERY WAKING MOMENT!

[Kaname looked dismissively aside, there was no arguing with Hades when he was in one of his "moods". That's when he caught sight of the communicator recording it all]
Did you intend to broadcast this exchange to the populace?

Why do you leave these things laying around? What the he--…
[That ends the triad as Hades glides over to the communicator and flicks it off. ]

[OOC: Black = Hades, Blue = Kaname - Some one is tired of his house guest... ]

[The device turns on to show Tidus underwater. He's in the ocean, the one on Destiny Islands to be precise. He gives it one glance before he appears to stare up at the sky. He doesn't move much. It stays that way for several minutes before he resurfaces.]

You know, I don't care about what people say about the darkness anymore. I don't think it's so bad. I know how that must sound, considering I'm just like the rest of you...or I should probably say, most of you. It's not really the darkness that I think is the problem.

It's the people behind the power that can either be a problem, or a good thing. I don't think there's some secret rule to being "worthy" of any sort of power. Sometimes you can do something other people can't do, and sometimes you don't have that ability. That's all there is to it. I'm not going to let that stop me, I just don't think anyone should beat themselves up over it.

[He glances down, eyes blank, as if he's trying very hard to conceal his emotions.]

I'm resigning from my position on the Restoration Committee. I...really have no place there anymore. I'm not giving up, but I betrayed all of you, all for what turned out to be a false hope. So I'm definitely not "worthy" of being there.
