Edonil: OK, I have no idea where this is going, so we'll just have to hope for the best.

To Change
Chapter One
"Ugh!" Kuja sat up, wincing. What happened? Where was he? Why wasn't he dead? Nothing made sense.
"Kupo!"
Kuja winced again. A moogle. Of all the creatures in the world, he had to be in the same place as a moogle. Wonderful.
"Are you alright, Kupo?" The stupid thing flapped its wings a bit, and managed to get onto the bed Kuja was laying on. "You gave us a scare, Kupo! We thought you'd never wake!"
"Yes, I'm alright." Kuja finally managed to sit without falling over. "Where am I?"
"Oeilvert."
"WHAT?!" Kuja tried to stand- and promptly fell over. Curse this weakness... "Why am I here? My magic..."
"That is the idea, Kupo. Your magic is dangerous. You should not be anywhere where you can harm anyone."
"I... I..." Kuja couldn't think of anything to say without sounding like he was a whining toddler. "How did I get here? Why didn't I die?"
"Zidane brought you here."
"Why?" The moogle shrugged. "Where is he?"
"He's... Not here."
"What do you mean, he's not here?"
"He left. He brought you here, and asked us to look after you, and went to see somebody in Alexandria. He comes back to check on you every so often."
Kuja thought that over. Yes, Zidane would want to see Princess- Queen Garnet- Then something else the moogle had said penetrated his brain.
"Every so often? How long have I been here?"
"Five years or so, Kupo."
"WHAT?!" Kuja did manage to jump up.
Then he fainted- or so he thought.

"Kupo!"
Kuja winced again. A moogle. Of all the creatures in the world, he had to be in the same place as a moogle. Wonderful.
Something stirred deep within his brain. Had he thought that before...?
"Are you alright, Kupo?" The stupid thing flapped its wings a bit, and managed to get onto the bed Kuja was laying on. "You gave us a scare, Kupo! We thought you'd never wake!"
No, the sense of déjà vu was gone.
He must have been dreaming.
Edonil: OK, people, please comment or something if you want me to continue! I probably won't unless I see comments! In fact, I know I won't! My original fiction takes up enough of my time. If no one seems to be reading this, I won't bother writing it!
