[heavenslament.livejournal.com]

Characters: Terra, Cecil, Basch
Progress: Ongoing.
Summary: My Worst Nightmare
Location: Memoria
Date: March
Warnings: Violence, trauma.

Memoria was beginning to take its toll on Terra, even the pleasant memories. After witnessing a memory she didn't know she possessed and then having her innermost desire shared for all to see, she was longing for the stability -and privacy- of home. Then, too, she still felt more than a little odd about witnessing visions that didn't belong to her. Granted, there was only so much she could see in the case of Basch, but she still felt it akin to reading someone's diary.

When the scenery changed again, Terra paused and stared around curiously. They were suddenly standing atop a very familiar structure in the Void. "...the Chaos Shrine?" She tilted her head, puzzled and wondering what they were going to see here...and if the vision belonged to Cecil or herself.

Curious, she stepped forward.

"Terra!" Cecil echoed the smaller knight, starting forward as an instinctive reaction. But of course, like on the other occasions, she was deaf and blind to anyone not belonging to the memory.

Deeply uncomfortable at what he was seeing, he stepped back to Basch's side, just wishing there was something he could do to stop the memory.

Immediately, Basch's hand went to his sword. There was definitely something wrong.

He nearly went forward when Cecil did, but it seemed as if this was yet again, another memory. What was to happen to them this time? It was obvious that they clearly hadn't suffered enough misfortune during their time in Memoria.

"Do you know what is happening, Cecil?"

Terra lifted her head at the boy, though her gaze was no longer frightened. Instead, she glared fiercely at him, sending a volley of holy missiles in his direction with vigor.

The Onion Knight managed to dodge them, but barely. "Terra, what are you doing? Don't you recognize me!?"

Obviously she didn't, and with a grim expression, the boy drew his sword. "Looks like I have no choice but to fight."

He was right, of course. Terra's form swiftly changed, as pale skin and green hair gave way to the brilliant mane, purple eyes, pink skin and sharp claws of her Esper form. The fight was swift and intense, with Terra mercilessly bombarding him with more of her magic every change she got. The Onion Knight did his best to keep one step ahead, using Comet and Figara to keep Terra and her disastrous Tornado spell as far from him as he could.

"...I don't know," he answered Basch, not taking his eyes off Terra and the Onion Knight. "It's as though her powers are--"

He was interrupted, by Terra's transformation and her attack on the boy. He knew there was little he could do to intervene in what was a memory, but he still felt a sense of uselessness that all he could do was watch his friends fight. "...Her powers seem to be out of control. She is -- attacking an ally."
