Gold Saucer

Rainy- ow! W-where am I...?

Ginny- Rainy!! what happened?

Rainy- Ginny? ...oh, nothing, nothing... maybe a nightmare.

Ron- that looked like it... what was it? Someone scolding you? It looked like that.

Rainy- no, no. That would have been worse. I dreamed that I went to my heart, and more of those shadow-like creatures were there, and I had to fight them all without magic, GFs or mana. In the end the darkness swallowed me... and I fell of the bed.

Ginny- well, that certainly is a nightmare...

Rainy- and talking of beds... where are we?

Ron- on North Corel. This is where the cableway to Golden Saucer is.

Ginny- it's Gold Saucer not Golden.! and you won't believe this, Gold Saucer is an amusement park! The only one in this world!

Rainy- ...r-really!? that's awesome! I've never been on an amusement park! Yay!

Ron- never?

Rainy- told you that I was on an orphanage, they didn't have any way to make twenty-some kids go to an amusement park.

Ginny- then, what are we waiting for? Let's go have some fun!

We got out of the inn and went to the cable car. While we were going to Gold Saucer, because this cable car isn't that fast, I was thinking on the dream.

Rainy- (what could that mean? Odin, do you think I have darkness in my heart? Seeing how all the platform got swallowed...)

Odin- (I don't know Rainy, the matters of the heart is not something we GFs know about. But I can say that is not normal shot a dark ball of energy to an enemy when you can't use magic.)

Rainy- (true... what was that...? wait, you saw everything?)

Ifrit- (no, but we are bored in here. We look to your memories to pass the time. And we can see the memories of you being inside your heart.)

Rainy- (then the voice was telling the truth? I made something called Dive to the Heart?)

Odin- (maybe, but that is not that important now, you should have some fun. Ginny looks really excited)

Ginny- Rainy, Rainy. Look! Gold Saucer!

I looked through the windows and I have to say that I'm impressed. It's a giant building that makes honor to it's name with how it is. It has seven golden branches that lead to different parts of the park, and it has this feeling of noise and fun.

When we got off the cable car, we had to pay for a normal pass or a lifetime pass, we paid for the normal as we won't be coming back again soon. They gave us some GP which I think is Gold Points as is the currency on Gold Saucer, and we reached a round room with slides to the different parts of the park.

Rainy- so... do you guys want to go alone, or should we all go to the same places?

Ginny- together! We can't come to an amusement park to be alone!

Rainy- ...okay then, where do you want to go?

Ron- to the Ghost square!

Ginny- to the Speed square!

Rainy-.....

Ginny-.....

Ron- maybe it's better to go alone at first...

Rainy- yeah... I want to go to the Battle Square...

Ginny-... fine! But we will be here in two hours and then we will enjoy this park together!

Ron- sure, sure... bye!

Rainy- okay, you know where to find me, bye!

Ginny-... ugh.... bye... ( well I should get going to the Speed square...)

I went to the Battle square after that and they begun to explain me the rules. I'll fight against ten rounds of enemies, and after every round, a handicap will be imposed to me. If I win all the ten rounds they will give me a special Materia.

Rainy- (can't wait! This looks awesome!)

I entered the arena, and I saw that there was even spectators.

Rainy- (just like good old Rome)

And the first fight begun, it was me agains two Bullmotors. I sliced them both with Joyeuse. I'm not that fast, but with the strength of the Junctions, I can cut and thrust through steel. And that's awesome. The next battles were also pretty easy, I either sliced them or I used a expulso to push them outside the ring. The handicaps weren't that bad, only status effects they used on me, like having half my stamina, or having half mana. On the seventh battle they took my Materia as a handicap, and for the ninth battle, I was mini. But with esuna! and my own strength I reached the tenth battle. It seems that it will be without handicaps because I feel that all my strength and vitality is back, and they gave me back my Materia

???- and now, for the tenth battle, we had a giant robot! But another participant scraped it! So as a special fight without handicaps, the participant that scraped the robot, the mysterious guy that everyone wants to know the face of, Ixat! against the newest participant, the monster girl that sliced her way to the top, Rainy Lionheart!

I entered the arena and I saw In front of me the same guy that saved us on the airship. With a black coat covering his face and body and with a strange key-shaped sword that has all the blunt part yellow, and the hand guard is silver, with a keychain yellow that has the symbol of... Mickey mouse? Whatever...
