“The thirteen days after we awoke were the beginning of the end.”


The purge train roll through the valley on it's way to pulse. On the train are Purge deportees awaiting their fate among them is Sazh and Lighting. A soldier from the group call Psicom walk through a door to check on the Purge people making sure their not doing anything to escape. “You serious?” Sazh ask Lighting “Be quiet.” she reply “best of luck.” he told her. The train crash through the portal and that when Lighting took action. She got up and kick the solder in the face making him drop the remote. She stomp on the remote freeing her and everybody from their purge jump suit. “She did it.” Sazh said surprise and relief at the same time. “Hands up!” one Psicom soldier yell out “Freeze!” the other one shouted than they open fire onto the crowd, but Lighting wouldn't have that. She rip free from her jump suit and round house kick the two solders in the face. Than a solder pointed a gun at her but she smack it out of his hand and knock him down to the floor and stole his gun.

She stormed into the next car and started killing every soldier in site. One solder started to rush towards her with a gun but she kicked him back making him fly backwards. Then she killed him with a few rounds of lead into his stomach. “You all right?” Sazh ask a kid who is huddle in the corner scared. “I'm not a l'cie.” He reassure the kid, than a chocobo pop out of Sash head and the kid smile.

Lighting click her fingers than her whole body glow a dim blue like lighting, than she face plant a soldier face into the metal door. After that she jump and air kick a solder face while shooting another one in the eyes. Than she pump more lead into other solder face.

“So far so good” Sazh said as he enter the car with a few rebels, “They all want to fight.” “Good for them.” Lighting snap back pulling out her gun/blade. The train roar through the tunnel that leads into a military compound know as the Hanging edge witch glows with a evil dark green. As the train enters the compound Lighting look out the door to scope out the area, than a group of fighters plains appear and open fire on the train.

“Give me that!” Lighting order and grab a rocket launcher and open fire on the plains. Than one of the plains fire back and causing a big explosion and one of the cars flew up in the air and crash down to the waters below. As the rampage continue the rebels try to fight back, but they were no mach because the Psicom sent out giant beast and robot demon dogs on them.

Then a metal scorpion came out of the darkness and landed on the train. With it mighty tail it smash a big hole on both sides of the train, “Run!” Sazh told Lighting and everybody on the train but Lighting didn't listen “ I meant away!” he yell at her. As Sash clime out of the wreckage he came face to face with the beast, lighting pull out her blade.

“Hey, hey, hey! Let's be rational now!” Sazh told to both the scorpion and Lighting. “They're sending in the big guns now. What do we do?” Sazh ask Lighting, “Watch and learn.” she told him. The giant scorpion raise is sharp razers blades and about to thrust them down to kill them both but Lighting took her mighty blade and strike the saws like razers, she hit them so hard that one of them came flying off and hitting one of the rebels. Then charge for the face slashing a chunk of metal off the face. Lighting continue to tear it apart as Sazh shoot it with his two pistols. Then the thing pull back and grab both sides of the car and begin to shake it.

“Fall back!” Lighting told Sazh as they flee to the next car. “Not so tough now huh?” Sazh told the monster taunting it. Just then the monster started the thrusters and started to pull the train. “Hey that wasn't like a challenge now all right?” he told the monster realizing on what he as done. Then both cars started to shake violently, “Time to go!” Sazh said out loud as they started running. Than both cars started to lift off the tracks, Lighting slipped as she was fleeing but caught herself than she jump onto the next car. Sazh was running down to safety as both cars lift into the air, “I'm coming!” “Jump!” Lighting told Sazh. As Sazh jump the monster pull the train off the track from underneath him. He landed face first on the next car but his little bird friend landed safely.”heads up!” she told him, “this thing won't give up!” the monster jump onto the next car. The monster was about to give the final blow but Lighting struck the sleds the only thing that keeping this thing from falling over the edge, as soon as she cut off the sleds the scorpion malfunction explode and fell into the lake below. “Oh goodness. We did it.” Sazh told lighting. “Aren't you supposed to protect civilian solder? I mean you are sanctum aren't you? What you doing trying to stop the Purge? Why don't you tell me that?” Sazh ask Lighting. “I was a soldier.” she told Sazh than she jump off the train onto the road. “Hey where do you think your going?” Sazh ask her, “Chocobo we cant catch a break can we? Well better follow her.”

Sazh and Lighting headed east fighting soldiers along the way and try to get through the debris. “Not wanting to get purged I get. But taking on trained solders?” Sazh ask Lighting out of curiously. “Better to die than sent to pulse it's hell without the brimstone.” Lighting explain. “yeah well hell not sounding too bad. Cause this place ain't exactly paradise.” Sazh answer back. “Domesticated peacekeepers nothing to worry about.” “Maybe not for a solder girl, but-hey!” the two robot demons dogs had no chance she killed them with one strike. So they continue on, then this solder on jet backs charge in on them Lighting slash him to the ground and Sazh finish him off with a fatal bullet to the head. They continue east till a plain crash out of the sky and took out the road in front of them, “Do we turn back?” Sazh asked “There no time.” she told him. “Than what do you suggest we do?” he asked Lighting, “Quiet!” she snap.

Lighting goes to the edge of the now destroy road and she click her fingers and she begin to glow like lighting and she getting ready to leave but Sazh stop her. “Hey! Wait no,no, don't leave me!” Sazh plead, “Let go!” yell Lighting. “Hell no, you're my only way out of here!” he pleaded to her again. Not letting go Sazh got his ass kick by Lighting she punch him, kick him, and shove him to the ground. She try to leave again but she drain her power so the lighting like glow won't work for a while.

Then Sazh spots a sky bridge, “Hey that might get us across right there.” Lighting turn to see what he looking at. “Right?” “Look that way.” They headed towards the sky bridge fighting a group of robot demon dogs along the way.

They got onto the platform that took them to the sky bridge, than they came face to face with an officer. “Deportees are we? Weapons down I’d hate for this to turn ugly.” “Uh… turn ugly?” Sazh ask confuse. “He want to kill us with out a fight.” They fought and fought and finally Lighting cut off his head. “So soldier? What your angle?” Sash asked but lighting didn’t answer. “What is it classified military info? What it matters? You quit didn’t you? You think I’m going to go out there and just tell everybody your secret?” Sazh continue asking. “The Pulse fal’cie.” Lighting told him, “What?” “My angle I’m after the fal’cie.” She explain, “Still happy you tagged along?” she ask. “Didn’t have a choice.” They took off on the sky bridge.
