♦ 001 ; Dream
Warnings: tl;dr?
Effects: None.
The first thing that’s heard was the sound of armor making a great deal of noise, and Zidane looked around as he ran up the steps in Alexandria Castle. At the last step he saw something out of the corner of his eye and stopped, making him a little off balance for a moment.
He tilted his head at the strange figure. Well, doesn’t this person look funny? He doesn’t say anything, and the hooded figure speaks up first.
“Umm…would you please let me pass?”
Well, that was definitely feminine. Was that the Princess that he was supposed to be kidnapping? There was only one way to find out.
“Let’s see…” He put his hands on his hips, examining her a little. He was trying to see under that hood, though he was pretty sure about the identity of this stranger at this point.
“Is there something on my face?”
He straightened up. “Oh, no. You see, I just thought that you might be the one I was waiting for all this time.”
“Excuse me? You were waiting for me?”
“Yeah! I’ve dreamt of meeting you here ever since I was born!” Maybe he sounded a little too enthusiastic, because the next time she spoke up, her tone was sour.
“Do you mock me?”
…Definitely the Princess. “No, of course not…”
“Then I take my leave of you!” The Princess made a move to get past him, but Zidane held her up once more.
“Wait a sec…haven’t we met before?”
“I do not know you.”
“Hmm…” Zidane mused to himself, the armor that he was wearing starting to clank against the ground as he walked around to her back. “You’re right, I’d never let a girl as pretty as you get away.” He walked back around to stand in front of her again. “Say, you wouldn’t be-“
“Hey, what’s goin’ on, Zidane?”
There was a silence, and Zidane could see the Princess tense up. He was watching her intently, waiting to see what she was going to-
“I must go!” She pushed past him, and the world spun as he was thrown off balance yet again. When he came to his senses, he ran over to Blank, who had fallen down in the process as well.
“Who the heck was that?!”
“Get up, Blank! That was Princess Garnet!” There was an urgent tone to Zidane’s voice as he leapt over his friend, running after the direction he hoped she had gone in. He barely heard Blank’s reaction, he was that busy trying to find her again.
So he sprinted through the castle, cursing the armor as he went. Finally, he pulled off into another room and released himself from the smelly outfit, before feeling much better (and lighter) in his search of the Princess.
He finally found her and chased her up the tower, calling out for her to wait. “Funny, like she’s going to wait for her kidnappers.” Zidane muttered under his breath, after realizing how stupid that just was.
Garnet stopped running, and climbed up to the side of the tower, her hands behind her back. Zidane stopped and stared, his eyes wide. She wouldn’t-would she?
She did.
Garnet fell backwards off the tower, and Zidane felt his breath come out in a sharp exhale. Though a quick glance told him that she was fine - she had taken hold of a rope with flags attached to it and was swinging to another destination.
Well, he just had to follow her then.
Ignoring the shouts coming from behind him, he took his own piece of rope, launching himself after the Princess. He couldn’t let her go - not like this.
Usually, he would have felt more exhilarated as the night air rushed past his face, but he was in too much of a hurry to get to her. He watched as she swung onto the top of a tent, and followed her. They both bounced on the material, and he rolled over to get off of it, landing on the ground below.
“Huh? Where’d the Princess go?”
That was when he felt an unfamiliar weight on his back, and he was sent crashing to the wooden floor beneath him.

[Zidane awoke with a start, blinking and looking around, trying to figure out where he is. It takes him a few minutes, but then he realizes…he’s on the floor. Maybe that’s what woke him up?
He pauses for a few minutes, and then starts laughing, obviously oblivious to the fact that the Dreamberry’s on. It turns itself off after a few moments, with his laughter still echoing in the device.]
