Hurricane Flammie
By: Monie

The wind blows incessantly as the characters stand on the battlements of Baron Castle. Rain falls in vertical streaks and massive flooding broods around their booted feet.

Rosa holding a microphone. The camera tilts to her left and cocking her eyebrow she leans forward.

" Cecil, hold the camera still." The frame adjusts right side up.

"We're here in Baron, reporting the casualties of Hurricane Flammie..It looks as though nothing has been destroyed as of yet...but as you can see," Camera turns and we see trees bending in the wind. Rosa continues," ...it hasn't gotten any worst.

"Yet," adds Cecil. The camera faces Kain. Dressed in a clear poncho he is standing on the battlements, lance in hand, hair in face.

"It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it."

"Yes, thank you Kain. How's it look over there, Edge?"

Camera switch to Eblan, drowning in a storm of flying trees and floating bushes. Over head, the clouds are bigger, darker than Baron's.

Edge jumps as lighting flashes.

"I hate it.. I hate it with a freakin' passion! This is bad, very bad!*" The hood to his green poncho snaps back. He narrows his eyes into the camera, " Be afraid, be very afraid.*"

Back to Rosa. "Ok, Edward?"

At Damcyan, the sand is a foot underwater and looks like dark mud. Edward's pants (?) are rolled up to his knees. The mic shakes in his hands.

"Send in reinforcements for the bloody thing!! It's the biggest...th-thing I've ever seen," his eyes grow wide," maybe bigger than," whispers," ..Levithan.."

Rosa: "R-Right.."

Cecil: "I'm tired of holding this.."

Rosa: "I know..Almost through. ...Palom, Porom, can you hear me?"

In Mysidia, the sun is shining with not a cloud in the sky... SUN??

Rosa, Cecil, Kain, Edward and Edge: What the ~~~~??

"Hey, dude! What's up?!" Palom and Porom pose infront of the camera in their bathing suits. A white wizard in a white bathing suit plunges into the lake behind them.

"Perhaps you all should come here, until the storm's over," suggested Porom. Rydia walks up to the kids and smiles in her bikini.

"Hey, all!"

We see a view of Eblan on its side with no reporter.

"Hand me my trunks, Rosa!"

"Bloody, magic users..."

Monie: "Aah, I can't find my bathing suit!!!"
