~Opening Instrumental Guitars~

A fleeting camera paced shots ranging from overlapping to slow out zooming that shows the landscapes of the Ancient Belka lands from the brightly illuminated capital of Opel and Vauxhall under the night sky, to the the torn, fiery remnants of a battlefield under the crimson, orange sunset... lastly zooming outwards to the very continent and lastly the planet shot itself from space...

Then...the screen shows a man with black eyes...

nee kotae ha nai yo...
There's no answer for you…

His eyes opened to show a pair of eyes...one jet black and the other crimson red...

kyou no keshiki o...
Today's scenery before you...

Opening up his arms, a pair of wings, one of darkness and one of light sprouted from behind him, and black and white feathers slowly fall....

wasure nai youni to boku ha iki o tomeru n da.
I'm holding my breath so that I won't forget it.

The title screen appears...with the background shot showing a field of pearl white flowers...under the moonlight of a night sky.

mukashi no keiken ni ashi o torarete...
Held back my past experiences....

A child Saga is shown looming over his parent's grave, his face filled with grief... as he looks down holding Null...

ari mo shi nai kabe o jibun de tsukutte tan da.
I created the nonexistent wall over myself.

The shot relayed over to a child Tiara, crying and grieving at her mother's death bed...

~The music drags for a few seconds~

Both of them, raised their heads, but their tears dry up, as their eyes are filled with determination, their faces almost in merge as one.

daiji ni shi sugiru to koware te iki sou de.
If I treasure it too much, I'm afraid I'll break it.

The shot then shows a child Saga's shot changing to a teenager Saga's shot holding Null in his keyblade mode, and then showing adult Saga...donned in full armor, his eyes serious and showing...


kakegae nai mono o tsukuru no ga kowakatta.
I'm afraid of making things that can't be replaced..

Then, amidst a field of flowers...Saga's head turn to look at...

-cut to-

bokutachi wa kono sekai ni nagaku iki sugi ta no kana.
Maybe we have lived in this world for too long.

A panning shot into the chambers of the Opel castle... as the camera slowly changes to show a child Tiara, growing into teenager Tiara with teenager Signum and Shamal by her side, and then into the adult Tiara, with Wolkenritter assembled behind her...

The camera then cuts over to her in a field of flowers...turning her head to see Saga...as she held out her hand towards him as he does to her...

~The instrumental drags...~

However, before their hands touched, the wind blew the a storm of flower white petals between them, as the camera shifted over again.

nee kotae wa nai yo.
Hey, there is no answer.

A shot of Saga, fully dressed in ceremonial armor as the Zerstoritter, Isdera, Wira and Astra stood behind him, with their Knight Armors and devices ready...standing over a castle balcony looking at a distance...

As the camera superzooms over the continent over to another castle balcony several thousand kilometers away where...

kyou no keshiki o...
Today's scenery before you...

A similar group shot, however with Tiara, fully dressed in her black knight armor with markings, as the Wolkenritter stood behind her armed and ready, from Signum to Vita to Shamal to Tesla and even Zafira.

wasure nai youni to boku ha iki o tomeru n da.
I'm holding my breath so that I won't forget it.

Saga and Tiara are then both shown, looking at something distances away with a feeling of sadness, pain and grief, as we see a shot of Saga's shadow spiralling into an abyss and a shot of Tiara's body unconscious, in something like a free fall condition in dark space...

atae mo shi nai noni motome sugi teitan daro u toki ni.
Even though it's not given, I have asked too much.

The shot then shoots over to the Saga vs Tiara, shooting their own Breaker Spells over the skies, causing a large explosion as the camera pans over Zerstroritter vs Wolkenritter, each one fighting one another, as the camera pans over again to a huge war-scale battle between thousands of Belkan Knights.

ayamachi ga boku no kokoro o tamesu..
The errors sometime test my heart...

Saga and Tiara are then shown sitting down together in the field of flowers...looking up in the sky, smiling....

miageta yozora kanae tai mirai o...
The night sky above...and the future I want to fulfill...

Saga and Tiara are standing back to back...their eyes closed, slowly opening in a backdrop of the starry skies... but as the lower mouth of one of them showed a trail of tears dropping with the mouth speaking something, muted...

hiraku hitomi ni tsuyoku utsushidasu.
They are reflected strongly in my open eyes.

The last shot is a stil that shows Schwertekruez Null's in her keyblade form and the Tome of the Night Sky in the middle of the flower field, with nothing else around them...

Part 11 is coming soon...hopefully. Ironic how Saturday and Sundays are the times where I can post the least, despite having no classes.

@USB I'm Malaysian too!

Aw... Two souls wrought with agony, lonely hearts finding sudden rapport, and yet they are unable to escape the cruel scissors of the sisters of fate... It conveys a lot of feeling there, and I say it's a perfect fit! Quite a contrast to the poppy light-headed New Velka Chronicles.

Looks like videos are necessary for visualization; I never did that when I first developed this at FF.net.

I used Sonic Move to get away, using an Acceleration Field facing the opposite direction for a quick stop. I took out the vibrating VKA 03, a dagger which has been loaded by my Roulette beforehand. I threw it at the Acceleration Field, where it shot towards the momentarily defenseless ‘Reinforce’ at a phenomenal speed. Not stopping, I punched in a manual command for Almaria.

[Stinger Blade: Execution Shift]

Upon contact, my dagger exploded with the force of twelve cartridges, followed by roughly around two hundred Stinger Blades. I grabbed my head. Argh… It’s starting to throb even more. I hope it’s over. She won’t be destroyed, I’m sure. But hopefully, the attack is enough to knock her out.

Just when I thought it was over, a wide beam of energy shot from the smoking area and headed straight for me. This time, I wasn’t able to defend properly and I got hit with around a quarter of the overall force of the shot. Damn, DAMN! Still not over?! I managed to catch myself before I completely dropped from the air.

A pulsating sphere of energy emerged quickly from the wreckage, later revealing the figure of Reinforce. How did she-? Wait, her wings are razed? That’s it! She used her wings to defend against my last attack!

Despite the serious damage to her magical wings, ‘Reinforce’ still kept her ever-steady poise while she looked at me as nonchalantly as ever. She assumed a crucifix position, and to my absolute amazement, started casting the spells that made her well renown in the past few days.

“No way…”

I couldn’t believe my eyes. I’ve heard the details first hand from Hayate. But I never imagined it would be THIS powerful! It’s not like I’ve never seen them do these movs at well. But this is just overkill!

[Chief!] Almaria called me I’ve never heard such urgency from her voice in the several years I’ve been with her. But she’s right. This isn’t the time to be gawking at this little show of fireworks. I grit my teeth and let out a small growl of frustration. Looks like I’ll have to-

[Chief, requesting permission for Battle Plan X.] And now she’s even suggesting that? Well, theoretically it could- No. Not in my present condition.

“No. It’s Battle Plan Y. Ready, Almaria?”

[But Chief, estimates shoe only a 16.67% chance of-]

“You know I hate gambling, don’t you? But now, there are six sides on the dice. One of them is blue. And I’m betting against the odds! Just focus on keeping yourself alive so can focus on doing this! Trust me, Almaria…”

[… Understood, Chief. Please be careful…] I felt Almaria’s magic signature diminish to almost none upon activating her safety mode. Now figuratively alone, I faced my executioner and opened up another telepathic link.

‘Really now… What do you take me for? I’m just a simple researcher who happens to know your Mistress.’

I took out my three remaining Roulettes, attaching one to Reishiki’s base flipping a switch on the two others, triggering their grenade mode.

‘I don’t know what you want, and to be honest I’m not sure I want to know. However, I also have future assignments aside from keeping alive right now. So, would you mind if I try to avoid my death sentence? Don’t think that I’d let you be the only one to give the finale on our little date.’ I terminated the link and flew upwards to slightly below her level and several meters away. This is the last…

She just kept on looking at me outlined between a gigantic Belka Sigil behind her. The lower left point had a massive sphere of gathering energy, the lower right had a towering pillar of light that seemed to suck in lightning from the heavens and the one on the tip beared smaller Belka symbol, the three points drawing energy from the center.

I could only barely make out what she’s doing from such distance. But I’m perfectly sure what she’s saying right now. They are:

Starlight,

“Starlight…”

Plasma Zamber,

“Plasma Zamber…”

and Ragnarok.

“Ragnarok…”

And since I’m sure I’m correct, may I have this final dance, my lady?
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Does it seem to be getting out of hand?

The Light bless his soul...

Though from the looks of the title, she might well be getting ready to blast the horde of Einst behind Aurion.

Somebody call... Tyrannid Tsukaima?

Spoiler for Aliens 2:

Name: Xealot
Alias: Sample #55
Age: Unknown.
Birthday: Unknown.
Magic Rank: Undetermined
Height: 300cm
Weight: 116kg
Hair: No hair, but azure blue scales on yellow underbelly
Eyes: Purple
Personality: A little hard to describe...
Usual wear: No clothes
Magic Type: Psionics
Caster Class: Psychonizer

Seiyuu: Kenichi Suzumura (with speech warping)

Anatomy

Xealot was a large, strange, powerful creature, centauroid in appearance, with two powerful arms and 4 legs, as well as a total lack of oral organs. Communicates purely by psychic means, and is a very powerful offensive Psioniker. He had a prodigious ability to assimilate the cultures (language, customs, practices) of other races, thus acting as diplomatic conduits for when he was still enslaved. Can transform his forelimbs and parts of his carapace into biological weapons. Regenerates rapidly with ingested flesh.

Background

Xealot was first found severely wounded on a distal planet of the TSAB (notably within half a kiloparsec from Megiddo) around the time a report was made by Lt. Glock Heckler regarding alien life forms on the archaelogical planet. When scientists made an attempt to experiment on it, it went berserk and slayed the team, ingesting their flesh and regenerating itself. Several Enforcer teams did their best to put it down, but it was the efforts of renown xeno-biologist and Saint Church training coordinator Setra das Oracle who managed to establish a mental link with the creature, discovering his name as Xealot, and convinced him that the Enforcers weren’t the “Red Ones” who he had been escaping from.

Once placate, Setra treated him as it was with any sentient creature she had encountered in her long lifetime. From there, more of his past came to light: His race had been enslaved by another, which he called the Teraglynsis, generations before, and he and some of his brethen managed to escape to a human world, but due to the raving mad actions of the demented few, they were deemed hostile and exterminated. He ran at first sign of danger, doing a blind blink to any random location, and found himself floating in some kind of void he had never seen before. The next thing he knew was that something yanked him out of the void and he went comatose from planetary impact.

Xealot moved to the zoological department, the center of xeno-biologist attention from all over Ordered Space, but with Setra’s supervision. He was granted refugee status, but for the sake of the MCeans he couldn’t leave the compound.

Proposed additional history

One day, he couldn’t take it and longed to escape. His mental songs of loss, confusion and boredom reached out far and wide, a faint buzz in the psynet system with left engineers scratching their heads. This lead him to another important person in his life, the infamous “Hell Girl“, Enna Mai. While cruising the psynet, Xealot found a bare-boned netpage that merely said “We shall remove the sorrow of the person whose name is entered here.“ And Xealot did.

Mai responded, but she wasn’t afraid of him, not even remotely surprised, but instead offered a listening ear. They have become friends since.

I hope Mai set up an interesting "Aunt Iggy" service inspired by the Jigoku Tsunshin...

In case you can't tell, Xealot is a Zoat, an extinct genus of the Tyrannid.
