Quina walked around kuja's hideout, still expecting to see 
Amarant 
behind her. She turned around to find no Amarant. " Where he go? Hmm 
must have gone to eat Lunch." She then felt a creepy hand on her back 
grab her. " Lemme' go!" She said struggling to break free.
       She then felt very sleepy and feel fast asleep. ( By a sleeping 
Spell)

    " Dagger, do you think the others have found Zidane yet?" Leise 
asked. " I don't know but if they have..wouldn't they have come to get 
us by now?" She responded. " Hmm you are right, lets just hope they 
haven't been caught by Kuja," Leise said.
      Dagger felt an uneasy feeling, like they were being watched by 
someone. " Leise do you  feel like...we are being watched?" " Yah, I 
bet 
Kuja is watching us..." Leise thought to herself.  They both paused 
trying to hear anyone's presence but their own, but all they could hear 
was each others breathing.

      Zidane sat in the chamber, hoping to have something happen. He 
then 
heard eiko's voice in the stall next to him. " Eiko, can you hear 
me?!" " Zidane?!" Eiko replyed. "Are you all right?" He asked.
     " Yah, Hey is dagger with you?" Eiko asked. " No, is she still in 
another stall?" Zidane asked. " No...She is still out looking for you, 
along with that strange girl that looks like you." Eiko said.
       Zidane no longer hearing eiko's voice heard the door open. He 
walked outside and saw everyone but Dagger and Leise.  " Welcome Back 
Zidane...i see you all have arrived but two of you..." Kuja said. " 
What 
have you done to the princess?!" Stiner asked sharply.
       " foolish Moron, i haven't done anything to your pathetic 
Princess.....but i will in a few minutes!" Kuja said calmly. " I am 
trying to retrieve the crystal, the Jewel of the earth...The one thing 
that holds the dearest memories of the people and the exsistance of the 
world!" " I will go over and retrieve the other two in front of you 
very 
eyes so you won't miss anything."
     the ground started shaking, and a huge screen came out of the 
ground. it showed Leise and Dagger walking around the Iifa Tree. " 
Dagger!" They all said aloud. None of them really cared for Leise so 
they didn't mention her name.
      Kuja then disappeared as the party watched the huge screen.

         *                        *                                   *

     " Um Dagger..." Leise said as she stopped walking. " Yes?" " Well, 
um i've got....something to tell you..." Leise said. " What is it?"
     " Well, i've never had any friends before....and I-i, (Ahem) Well 
i 
am glad that i could spend some...Time with someone like you...I mean 
you know...well..uh," Leise said. Dagger didn't say anything. She never 
really liked Leise, how she was kind of immatating Zidane.
     " I mean, we've only been together for 1 hour, but.....well I know 
you don't like ME very much....but i like you...Like as a friend," 
Dagger hesitated to say anything, it was like she could read her 
thoughts!
     " Okay....i understand..." Leise said walking again and leaving 
with 
out Dagger. " Oh, great now she thinks i put her down by not saying 
anything!" Dagger thought to herself. Just then Kuja grabbed her and 
put 
a knife right up to her neck.

      *                          *                      *       *

   " Great, I shouldn't have said anything...Now she probably hates me 
even more then she already did." Leise said walking into the center of 
the Iifa Tree. " I don't know why no one likes me...Maybe because i'm 
Ugly and i don't look like a girl, or maybe because i am too rude to 
people...Maybe i was too rude to Zidane and Dagger...Maybe i was too 
rude to everyone," " Why can't i keep my yap Shut!" She kept walking 
wiping away the warm tears running down her cheeks.
        She then was stopped by kuja who was holding a knife up to her 
neck. " Let her go Kuja!!!" Leise yelled. " Not unless you do me a 
favor," Kuja insisted. Leise nodded her head.
      Kuja dropped dagger on the ground. Leise looked at Dagger who got 
up from the ground. She tried to put a message into her thoughts, " 
Dagger, listen...I want you to leave the Iifa tree Now!" Dagger 
replyed " Ok" and Dagger ran out of Leise's sight.
      " Come child, we will go to Terra, to retreive the crystal!"
