Ever have a moment where your life flashed before your eyes? Well a young blonde was going through that moment when she went flying through the air.

The flashbacks reminded her of when times were a bit simpler. When her job revolved around making sure the Chocobos were cleaned, the stalls were freshly taken care of and the patrons were happy with the service. But since Deadeye became a problem, getting the birds out to do… well anything, including for people to ride them off the farm lands was difficult. In response to Deadeye’s consistent presence, the team at the Chocobo ranch caught as many wild Chocobos as they could in order to protect them from getting well… eaten. 

[i]Hey Sarah,[/i] the owner said seeing the active young blonde spending more and more time with the Chocobos. [i]You wanna learn how to break them?[/i] Of course she, being young and a bit foolish, jumped on the opportunity to learn how to do it. That was… until she realized what it entailed and the reason the owner never showed her on a live and untrained Chocobo was because of how difficult it actually was. 

She had been working with the same Chocobo for the past two weeks only to find that he decided to continue being aggressive towards her. Today seemed like the worst day of all. Today was a day like any other day until the Chocobo decided he had had enough. Sarah had been working with the Chocobo on the training and breaking it for a while now. Using a lead attached to a pole she was trying to get it to calm down before she climbed on only to have the creature turn to her. 

The Chocobo let out a cry before planting its feet and leaning forward, “What, no!” She shouted before the creature leaned towards and grabbed her by the collar of her shirt with its beak. With a jerk of his head, the creature sent the five foot four inch, 120 pound 22 year old flying through the air…

And thus, she had moments of her life flash before her eyes. Her blue eyes closed tightly as she braced herself for impact, knowing full well the closest thing to her location was a large tree and that… that was going to hurt. Her face flinched as she expected the firm impact of a tree trunk but she hit something, softer and the softer thing fell backwards.

Upon her hit her eyes opened and she saw arms flying up beside her. What? Her mind was spinning and soon her world was upside down as she landed on someone who proceeded to fall backwards due to the impact. After taking a moment to catch her breathe she quickly rolled off of the person she hit. 

“Oh my god.” She said quickly as she looked down at the person she was thrown into. The young man she had hit laid flat on his back. Her small hands gently touched each side of his face on his cheeks. “Hey, Hey! Are  you okay? Can you hear me?” Leaning over she stared down at him with concern in her blue eyes. “Come on, open your eyes.”
