Eva screamed when she heard the explosion. Looking up She saw the Arch was broken in half, A look of terror came to her face as she saw it clash together. Looking back to the sphere she saw as all the players fell into the safety net below. She heard, even through the yelling and screaming Gippal yelling "MOVE MOVE MOVE MOVE" But instead of making for the edge of the net he ran towards the center. She gripped the railing infront of her tightly as she heard the metal screeching and fall towards him. He helped a female player get untangled, and while looking up he threw her out of the way. "Gippppppallll! NO!!!!!!" She screamed with tears in her eyes as Urick flung himself over them, last thing she saw was the Arch land right on top of him.  She started to cry uncontrollably, Freaking out and pushing against Urick's Chest to get up. She had to find him. He couldn't die! Not when she just found him again! 

She finally gave up the futile effort of pushing Urick away, and simply cried with her hands over her face, going limp in her chair. She couldn't believe this happened, it had to be a nightmare. But the few minutes she sat their as the dust engulfed them and blocked out the sun. She truly felt like darkness was engulfing her whole. One of her best friends, just died. She never felt this pain before, or if she did it was lost along with her memories from before two years ago. 

Suddenly the speakers came to life and a man began to speak. Almost instantly she stopped crying and her red bloodshot eyes wide, She looked around to see Thane Standing on the announcer's box. Her view of him quickly gone as Urick tried to hide her behind him from his site. She did notice the blood on Urick's back. She quickly placed a cool hand on his back and whispered a healing spell, but curled up into a ball and wrapped her arms around her legs as she now knew it was because of Thane, Gippal was dead... Burying her head into knees. Because of her. 

But suddenly she heard someone scream Thane's name in anger. Her head popped up as well as her heart while Thane stopped speaking. Her hopes soared while she jumped up and looked down to the bottom of the stadium. She saw Alex, the tall red head with her arms around Gippal, both were kneeling but it looked Gippal was in pain. A relieved smile came onto her face upon seeing him alive, She was also glad his friend was alive as well. 

Thane then said he had a gift for them, and waved his hand. Suddenly Fiends appeared and started attacking the innocent. Urick jumped in and quickly dispatched two fiends with ease, Saina saying they needed to get her somewhere safe. She shook her head violently. She wasn't going anywhere. Not while Thane was here, not with all these people in danger it wasn't right...especially because it was all because of her. 

Suddenly Saina finally seemed to notice Thane, and her countenance seemed to change, she looked to Urick and herself and again said take her somewhere safe. But her voice was scary as it seemed two voices spoke at once. Then she sprinted towards Thane. "Saina! WAIT!" She yelled but it was no use, she was full throttle as the water below turned to ice steps and she raced up to Thane. 

Alex suddenly appeared, pulling herself up with one arm and throwing Gippal over the edge, he rolled like a rag doll but was groaning. That was a good sign. She pulled him into her lap, seeing his head wound she knew immediately he must of landed head first. His head hot from the blood filling up his skull. She was surprised he was able to even yell let alone be awake with this kind of injury. She quickly said a cura spell and looked up to Alex who's blue eyes were looking her for a moment, panting...Before looking to Urick to say babysit them. 

She suddenly got in a fight with a massive bird, and she lost sight of her...as much as she wanted to help she wanted to make sure Gippal was gunna be breathing first. A few more minutes before she was satisfied with the treatment. She looked to her left to see Alex again, all bloody now, and looking like she was in much pain from her breathing. Before she could run off to help her she decided to call her Aeon.

She laid him down and tried to focus on summoning Valefor. She didn't have her staff, as what she would use to focus the summon... that is...what she remembered she used it for, she never actually did in the last two years. She took a breath and prayed for the help of Valefor, straining to remember what she needed to do exactly, when after a moment it just clicked. A bright light came from the sky towards her at high speeds, but at the last moment swooped to a stop. She had closed her eyes briefly but when she opened them she saw the majestic Aeon before her. 

standing up she looked over to Alex again but she Slipped into the VIP Box. With a fiend behind her with out her knowing. She pointed and Valefor quickly did it's energy ray attack, quickly killing the fiend. 

She then ran to the box, to help Alex. as she entered though she heard a woman yell Run!!! She looked up just in time to see that girl from the temple in the floating chair suddenly change and fly out of the box. What in Yevon's name did she just see!? She saw Alex barely standing, First things first she had to heal her as well. " Don't move! " She said, touching Alex softly as she said, "Cura, " As she was casting the spell and her wounds healing she asked. "What just happened???"
