Alright I'm sorry ok? I know I haven't updated in ages! Call off the hounds now ok? Sheesh!

"No it was the last left! The last left!!"

"You sure you know where you're bloody going?!"

"Yeah I said left!"

Quinn sighed. "yeah after you gave me about a hundred different directions!"

"Its dark!" complained Vidal.

"Do you ever shut up moaning?" cut in Favisor.

Amid the squabbling noctis was in the back seat, his head resting on a loosely curled up fist. He was planning how they were going to get into the prison and back out again to the wilderness that lay beyond.

"erm…. Noct? We've got company…" muttered Quinn, his eyes flickering between the rearview mirror and the road. Noctis, still lost in thought, didn't hear him.

"Noctis! Erm…. Can I call you that?" started Vidal.

"Oh for - !"

"What?! I was just asking!"

"Whats wrong?" asked Noctis.

"There's a couple of cars following us."

"Oh crap! They've found me!"groaned Vidal. He promptly received a swat from Favisor.

"Are you sure?" asked Noctis, leaning through the gap in the seats, his voice full of concern.

"Pretty sure. I wasn't at first but they never come closer than a couple pf hundred yards. Also the fact that they're all driving exactly the same make of car gives it away a bit. These guys clearly went to the amateur school of following someone!"

"Very funny," remarked Favisor sarcastically.

"I don't get it…." Mumbled Vidal, his brow knit in confusion.

"Can you lose them?"

"Can a moogle say Kupo?"

"What's a moogle?"

"Never mind…."

Quinn continued along the road for a while before throwing the wheel to the right. No sooner had he done so he made another sharp turn, this time to the left. They emerged on a highway which was busy, even at this late hour.

Quinn immediately sped up, passing cars so quickly it seemed that they were stationary.

"Not to put a dampener on your amazing driving skills, Quinn – but they're still behind us…"

Quinn's eyes flicked up to the mirror again and he frowned.

"Alright, maybe they are pretty good after all."

"Thought you might say that," grinned Favisor.

Quinn smirked and put his foot even further down on the accelerator. "Let's see how good."

He proceeded to weave in and out of the traffic at a speed well over the limit. The three passengers simultaneously reached for their seat belts.

"You trying to get a fine for speeding?"

"nah. The plates are fake anyway."

"Remind me to never ask why…" sighed Noctis as he glanced out of the window. "They're still coming. I thought you said you could drive?"

His only reply was Quinn slamming on the hand brake and turning the wheel, causing the car to spin a full 180 degrees before speeding the way they had just come, through the oncoming traffic.

"You're gonna hit one of them!" screamed Vidal.

"That's the general ides," he grimaced, his hands locked on the steering wheel. At the last moment he shifted it slightly to the left so that the back end of the car hit the front of one of their pursuers. It swayed one way, then the other, its tyres screeching on the tarmac. Finally it flipped sideways, rotating twice before slamming back to the ground, landing upside down. Fumes leaked from the bonnet.

"Are you crazy?"

"It'll take more than a tin can on wheels to stop us! This baby's missile proof!"

"Looks like no-one told them that!" warned Favisor as bullets began thudding into the back bumper.

"You were serious about the missile proof thing, right?" Vidal asked nervously.

"Of course," scoffed Quinn in reply, just as the back windscreen sustained a huge crack. "Although come to think of it, I may have been over exaggerating a little bit"

"Vidal! You need to take out the guys shooting from the sunroofs!"

"Yeaaaaahhhhh. Right! So I'll just pop my head out and shoot them all. I think they might just have the same idea!"

"I'll cover you!"

"What with? A bloody wall?"

"Noctis?"

"Just… trust me ok?"

While the others had been panicking Noctis remembered a conversation he had had with Favisor, years ago;

Some people say that its possible to focus your mind to such an extent that the impossible becomes possible. Like when you teleport. Usually it takes years and years to practice, by which time you've wasted your whole life!

How come I can teleport then?

I don't know Noct. Like I said it usually takes years. I've never heard of anyone being able to teleport, no matter how long they try.

What could they do then?

Favisor had looked thoughtful

There is an old legend of a man who could wield numerous weapons all at once, using just his mind.

But that's impossible!

Exactly! The impossible becomes possible!

But how?

Favisor laughed

How can I know?! They called it Telekinesis. Like "telepathic" – using the mind. He could anticipate others' attacks too.

He could read minds?

Not read, no. but he could certainly sense their intentions

So he could block any attack then?

Favisor had laughed again.

It's probably not true! Most legends aren't!

Could he do that now? The idea that he couldn't was laughable now that he held the crystal but he was skeptical.

It's probably not true! Most legends aren't!

"Christ, will someone slap him or something? He's freaking me out!

"Shut up Vidal! Noctis are you – "

"I need your weapons."

"What?!"

"Quickly!"

Favisor handed him his longsword, which was difficult in the confines of the car, along with two hunting knives. Vidal tried to hand him his shotgun but Noctis pushed it away. "You're going to need that."

Vidal started to argue but Noctis held up a hand "listen, trust me ok? If you get killed sue me1"

"oh well, that's a relief!" Vidal rolled his eyes but took his shotgun back. "I wouldn't trust you with it anyway," he grinned.

He turned around and knelt on the seat. Quinn took one look at his dirty shoes and groaned.

"Right are you ready?" Vidal asked. He looked nervous but also excited. Noctis nodded and closed his eyes.

Vidal opened the sunroof and stood up. Immediately the noise of gunfire grew louder.

"Oh shit."

Yeah I know I'm evil! Get over it! :) this doesn't mean I'm back for good yet by the way but Fan Fiction was calling to me so…. Here you have a chapter! Just want to thank everyone who's stuck around. I know I can't update a lot anymore but I really appreciate all the support. Special thanks to everyone over at Yuki's forums!

So. Until next time. (which may or may not be soon!)

BYE!
