Skies of Arcadia: The Untold Story

Credit to Nintendo/Sega/Overworks for this game, diologe etc.

Ok, for thoses of you that have played the game, you know the enviroment and setting is. For the others who don't, this takes place in the sky. Think of the sky now as the sea and the only land left is a whole bunch of islands, some bigger then other. Oh, and Kev is my own charcater I made up and added into the story. I may provide a drawing of him. I'm also wondering if I want to send it to Nintendo/Sega and see what they think (but I want to see what you think first lol). Anything else you want to know, just ask. :) Now, for the start of Skies of Arcadia: The Untold Story...

Prologe​

Ok, here's the map of the world:http://www.planetdreamcast.com/SOAworld/Maps/map1.htmThe world as it is now is in the shadow of six moons: Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Purple and Silver.

Valua, the continent in the north, is under the Yellow Moon. They have an abundent of eleterity and is into two parts: the Lower City (slums) and the Upper City (rich place). Valua is a miltristic country, ruled by Empress Teodora and Prince Enrique. Below them, are the Admirals of the Armada, the leaders of the battleships of Valua. Valua will stop at nothing to rule the world and is contanly at war with its rival, Nzar.

Nzar, the continent southeast of Valua, is covered under the Red Moon. The continent is desert, almost wasteland like. Water is scarse but the people of the land one adventage over the elements: trade. Nzar is known to be a big trade center. Nzar is contantly at war with it's rival, Valua.

The "Land of Ice", as it is known in legends, is a huge piece of land covered under the Purple Moon. It is in the far northern/southern part of the map. Not much is known about this land, only that it's covered in ice. One rumor that has been going around is a lost city under the continent, but it hasn't been confirmed, as no one has reached it.

Ixa'taka, the fabled land to the far West, is covered by the Green Moon. Not much is known about this land either, other then it is covered in lust greens, plants, flowers and fruits. The reason no one knowns much about this land: no one has reached it due to the South Ocean, an area said to have strong crosswinds, inpassable for an normal ship.

Yafutoma, another mysterious land to the Far East, is covered under the Blue Moon. Not much is known also about Yafutoma. Many believe it to be a fairy tale. The thing stoping people to see if it is real or not: The Dark Rift, a "evil" maelstorm that stops any ship from passing. Many people have trying going through the Dark Rift, almost none have returned.

Last, where Pirate Isle, the base of our main charaters, is under the Silver Moon. There isn't any continent here, only small islands. Pirate Isle is in the center of the map. Most things are normal here and people live a quiet normal life.

The setting is all sky, along with the continents floating in the sky. Here are some example of the setting: http://www.nintendogamenet.com/Images/skies/7.jpg

Chapter 1​

A long, slinder silver ship raced across the sky. Close behind, a larger, duller looking battleship followed behind the silver ship. This battleship was headed by none other then Alfonso, an Admiral of the Imperial Armada. He is a young fellow, wearing a white vest with a pink interior. Also on the vest is gold shoulder armor and gold cuffs. His pants are black and his boots are a rich silver color.​

"Hah hah hah...We've finally found her..." he said

"Admiral Alfonso, her ship's in range of our cannons." said the Vice Captain.

"Excellent. Prepare to fire the concussion shell on my command but avoid hitting the ship directly. We need her alive so we can "question" her." Alfonso said. "Now fire!

Cannon fire shot across the sky, almost hitting the odd silver ship. Inside the small ship was a young girl, about 17 or 18. The cannon blasts were too much for her, knocking her out. The duller, bigger battleship came up to the smaller one.

"Your Excellency, the girl has been knocked unconscious, but she's unharmed. She's been taken board our ship." said the Vice Captain.

"Hah hah hah. The Empress will be very plased with me. I'm sure to be rewarded...rather handsomely, I might add." said Alfonso

All of a sudden, the ship shook, as if it were hit by something.

"What? Where did that come from? It sounded like an explosion. Status report, now!"

"Th...The lower hull been hit! Someone is attacking us!" said a soldier.

"Attacking us? Who would dare attack a vessel Imperial Armada?" Alfonso asked.

"There's a ship hiding in the clouds off the port side! Th...that flag...Air Pirates!!!" said the soldier.

That flag would be that of the Blue Rouges, a fraction of Air Pirates. The crew of the Air Pirates threw their hooks attached to with rope onto the Armada's ship ledge. A young man hopped down from the ship's crow nest onto the Armada's ship. Soldiers were down there waiting for him.

"Air pirates scum! Don't you know we're Valuan Imperial Soldiers!" said a soldier.

"Of course I know. That's why we attacked your ship. You have the best stuff." said the young man. "I'm Vyse of the Blue Rouges and in a few minutes, I'll be relieving you of all your valuables!"

Vyse is about 18 years old with brown hair and brown eyes, with a scar below his left eye and a clear eyepatch covering his right eye. He stands at about 5'11'' and around 155 lbs. He wears a blue vest that covers almost all of his torso and arms, with it open on both of his shoulders. He wears black pants and brown leather boots that almost go knee high with a buckle that goes across both of them. Also uses two cutlasses as weapons.

"Heh heh...Attacking us all by yourself? Your either incredibly brave or stupid. We'll be tossing you overboard." said the soldier.

"Wait for me!!" Just then, a young girl appered next to Vyse. "Vyse, you left without me! I'm not going to let you have all the fun. Oh, hi. I'm Aika. I'm a Blue Rouge like Vyse...and were robbing you."

Aika is about the same age as Vyse. She has red hair with two ponytails coming out behind her head. She also has a pair of pink goggles sitting on top of her head. She wears a stone tiki head necklace along with a tan leather tank top and shirt, having brown leather "underwear" if you call it that under her shrit. She wears a brown leather glove on her left hand, the hand she uses her boomarang with. Aika also wears the type of boots as Vyse, only different thing about them is the heels are alittle higher. She stands at about 5'9'' and 120 lbs.

"Heh...even with you, you two don't stand a chance." said the soldier.

"Where did you learn to count?" said another voice. Another young man jumped beside Vyse and Aika. "How many times have I told you two you just can't jump into something?" he said "By the way, names' Kev. Sure you guys won't miss any of your gold you have will ya?"

Kev is also around 18 years old. He has brown hair and green eyes. Kev is 6'0'' and is also about 155 lbs. Kev wears scale armor on his chest, shoulders, and on the top of his legs. Were the armor isn't covering, blue cloth is there, alot like Vyse's vest. He also wears blue cloth pants with black leather, strapless boots. Kev's weapon of choice is a pike, a weapon used in anicent times. Kev also wears a silver helm with two angel-like wings in the front that go off to the side stright out. There is also a blue puff of long animal hair on top of the helm.

"You dare mock the Valuan Empire with your insolence? Kill them and toss their corpses over the side!!" said the soldier.

Will hopefully finish Chapter 1 tomm.

Well, here's the finishing touches on Chapter 1. I hope I'll be able to get some people to read the story, otherwise I'll probably just keeping writing it but not post it. There are some battle sences and other junk during the story and will most likely edit it, again depending on how many review it. I'd be happy if one person looked over it lol. Even with the battle sences, they'd be quite hard to make good seeing how it's stright out of a game. There was something else I wanted to say but I can't think of it at the moment lol. ok, now for the end of Chapter 1...

---Battle---

"There's no point in resisting. Throw down your weapons and hand over the ship." said Vyse

"Imbeciles! What do the three of you think you can do against the six of us? Take them out." said a soldier. Just as he raised his sword, a gun sounded and he fell to the floor of the ship.

"I think you miscounted. I only see five of you." said an older looking man.

"Yeah...miscounting seems to be a problem on this ship... Hope all of the Armada isn't like this." said Kev

"Dad!" said Vyse. "We'll take care of these guys. Go to the ship's bridge and shut down the engines...and remember, when we're out here, it's "Captain"... not "Dad." Got it?" he said

"Yeah yeah...Aye aye "Captian." Heh...Aika, Kev, shall we go introduce ourselves to the captain of this ship?" said Vyse

"I'm ready when you are!" said Aika. "Sure, let's get going." said Kev "Alright! Lets go find the bridge!" said Vyse.

---Walkthrough next to a staircase---
"Well...Well...Air Pirates have decided to...infest my ship." said Alfonso "I am Alfonso, cherished son of Valua's most distinguished family and an Admiral of the Imperial Armada. Normally lowlifes such as yourselves would never have the opportunity to bask in such greatness. Consider yourselves fortunate."

"His ego bubble needs to be poped..." Kev said to Aika off to the side. "Yea...he about as arragont as they come." said Aika

"Yeah...right...Who's the girl?" asked Vyse, refering to the unconscious, young girl thrown over the Vice Captain's shoulder. "Never thought someone of your...stature would stoop to kidnapping."

"Hah! You're very observent for a Rogue. However, I connot waste my time dealing with you." said Alfonso. "I simply must get going. I think I shall have you exterminated like the pests you are...Guards, dispose of them!" Sirens sounded and four guards attacked the three.

---Battle and walkthrough---

"What?! How did you defeat my soldiers? Heh...if you want my ship that badly, you can have it. I'll get another." said Alfonso. "I am very busy. I do not have time to deal with you personally. Now if you'll excuse me..."

---Walkthrough---

"Your Excellency, the sun is up and visibility is good. The preparations for your escape have been completed." said the Vice Captain

"Good work. I have also completed my preparations as well..." said Alfonso "...preparations to dispose of a traitor."

"W...What?" said the Vice Captain. He turned around to see Alfonso with his sword pointed toward him. "P...Please! Your Excellency!! What are you doing?!"

"I cannot tell the Empress that I lost my ship to Air Pirates in a fair fight. I am going to need a scapegoat and you'll do quite nicely. To keep my glorious reputation from being tarnished, you must be sacrifised..." said Alfonso

"N...No! You can't do this!" said the Vice Captain. Alfonso took him to the back ledge of the ship and pushed him off. "Even in death, he'll serve me well. I can't wait to tell the Empress..." snickered Alfonso. "but Empress, my own Vice Captain betrayed me and let the Air Pirates on board...I could do naught but dispose of the traitor myself."

"So, this is how Valua treats its people..." Alfonso turned to see Vyse, Aika and Kev. "That's about as low as you can get..." said Kev

"Now that we've taken control of your ship, we'll be taking the girl as well. There's just one more thing I need to do." said Vyse "After seeing you kill an unarmed man in cold blood, I can't allow you to walk away from this. Draw your blade, Alfonso!"

"Hah...an uncivilized Rogue dares to challenge me? You aren't worth my effort, but perhaps you'd like to meet one of my pets. Come, Antonio!" said Alfonso

Just then, a large steel door was hit by something, causing a dent. It was hit again, revealing a huge beast.

"What is that thing?!" said Vyse. This was a four legged, bull-like animal. It had two huge horns on the top of it's front legs and it's whole body was almost all covered in silver armor. It turned toward the three and attacked.
--- BossBattle ---

"Bah! Perhaps there is more to you then meets the eye." said Alfonso "Well, Vyse of the Blue Rouges...You will rue this day...the day you stood against Valua. We shall meet again." Alfonso's lifeboat soon started to charge up, and soon after, started moving forward out of the main ship.

"You corward! What kind of commander sacrifies his own men and ship to run from a fight?" yelled Aika "Well, even though he was a coward, he was a coward with gold..."

"True...I suppore that the ship and everything on it officially belongs to us now." said Vyse

"Have to love the spoils of stealing from the Armada." said Kev

"We haven't had a catch this big for some time! People back home are going to be impressed." said Aika "and look at this girl. Never seen anyone dressed like that before."

"Your right. SHe sure doesn't look like ahe's from around here. Wonder why Valua was trying yo kidnap her in the first place?" said Vyse

"Well, reguardless, we should get her back to the ship." said Kev

To Be Contiuned
 

Lily

you were the one.
By request~

First of all, I do hope the author will bear in mind this reviewer has never played Skies of Arcadia. ^_^;



Not a bad exercise regarding battles and the overall concept..The story in its entirety exudes a rather bland aura; you describe things in such a simple, direct matter there's hardly a challenge in depicting characters. Ex:

A long, slinder not a word - slender? silver ship raced across the sky. Close behind, a larger, duller looking battleship followed behind the silver ship. No need to emphasize what color the ship is. Readers know this already from the previous sentence. This battleship was headed by none other then Alfonso, an Admiral of the Imperial Armada. He is past tense, present tense? a young fellow, wearing a white vest with a pink interior. Also on the vest is tense error, and it should be 'were'.. gold shoulder armor and gold cuffs. His pants are tense black and his boots are a rich silver color.

The first paragraph is stuffed with blunt descriptions...not that it's forbidden, but in order to appear more captivating, it's better to take another approach when describing/introducing characters.

"Hah hah hah...We've finally found her..." he said

Period at the end. When trying to convey a laugh, you can simply add, "We've found her!" he laughed.

"Admiral Alfonso, her ship's in range of our cannons." said the Vice Captain.

Period -> comma. That was pretty consistent throughout your whole story. Try to differentiate dialogue actions! Don't use only 'said,' but maybe 'exclaimed,' 'muttered,' 'shouted,' and it helps if you add an adverb, such as, 'he shouted angrily,' or something. =P

Plot wise, it's relatively simple to follow...you conveyed it like a video game strategy guide, which I don't particularly agree with; try to write it in your own style. One major complaint I'd have is the lack of expressions. Everything seems so monotonous, even as the girl gets kidnapped and Alfonso & co. are sharing their reactions...try to make the story more alive.

Eh, overall, you have some things to tweak and fix up, but if done so with proper care, it should turn out polished and neat.

Best of luck! ^_^

Kairi: Thanks for reviewing this. :D This is kinda like my dream story so anything to make it better is fine by me. I hope you continue to review the story (even though it takes like forever to post up a chapter.) I probably should have noted in the beginning this is my first fic so it'll probably be crap in the beginning. Also, I should have noted that almost all the dialoge in this story is directly from the game, though some of it has been edited and Kev's is all made up. I'll try and get Chapter 2 by this weekend. Thanks again. :)

EDIT: I do agree with you on the not enough decription part. Right now, I guess all I'm really focused on is getting the bulk of everything down and maybe from now on, I'll see if I can edit it with a bit more detail.

Alright, here's Chapter 2. I'll probably add pictures of Kev, Vyse, Aika and Fina tonight.
----

Chapter 2​

Back on the pirate ship:

"How is she Vyse?" asked Aika

"Hmm...her breathing is more regular now. I think she'll be alright." replied Vyse.

Vyse, Kev and Aika were all bending over, looking at her face while the young girl layed in bed. Soon after, she soon began to woke up and open her eyes.

"Look! She's coming to!" said Aika

"Wh...where am I?" she said

"Your aboard the ship, Albatross." said Kev

"I'm Vyse. Don't worry, there aren't any Valuan troops around, so you'll be safe here." said Vyse

"Yes. Um...Thank you very much." she said.

"Haha...you don't need to thank us! The Blue Rogues are always there to help people!" said Aika. "My name is Aika. It's nice to meet you. Hey could you tell us your name?"

"My name...my name is Fina." she said

Fina was around the same height and weight as Aika. She had stright golden, blonde hair and emerald green eyes. She has a clear veil covering the back of her hair, the veil attached to a silver, round "cap." Her dress is almost all of a slivery, white along with some gold. She has silver pants under her dress, along with soild, same color boots.

"Fina, huh? It's a great name...it's so...so feminine." said Vyse

"Really? You think so?" Fina said in a timid voice.

"Geez, you try and compliment someone...and nothing...No reaction whatsoever." replied Vyse

"Ahahaha! Vyse, that wasn't much of a compliment. Looks like you have alot to learn about women." commented Aika

"Your right about that Aika..." added Kev

Fina giggled to herself. "Um...excuse me, but I have a question. What excatly is an Air...Air Pirate?" The other three looked at each other in disbelif.

"Wow, she must have a bad case of amninsa." said Kev

"What? You mean you were sailing out here and you don't know what a Air Pirate is?" replied Aika

"Oh...I...I'm sorry...it's my first time traveling." Fina said, quite embrassed.

"Air Pirates are people who attack ships but there are two factions: Blue Rogues and Black Pirates." said Vyse

"Black Pirates attack mainly merchant and unarmed ships, killing eveyone on board and steal all the cargo whie Blue Rouges steal from armed ships, mainly the Armada, and give the gold to the people who need it." explained Kev

"That's why we helped you. Don't worry, we're not here to kidnap you or anything. Just relax and enjoy the trip." said Vyse

"Vyse, Aika, Kev...How long are you going to chitchat? Come to the bridge now." said Vyse's father

"Oh no! We compeletlly lost track of time!" said Aika

"I was kinda hoping that he would forget about us..." remarked Kev

"Oh well...I guess that means we to go. Alright Fina, we'll see ya later! Try to get some rest." replied Vyse, and the three ran out of the room and to the bridge.

I will try to finish Chapter 2 before or on Saterday. I tried to add a bit more emotion and tried to cut down on "said." Going to look for pictures now. :)

Bout time I finish up Chapter 2
----

As Aika, Vyse and Kev went to finish their chorus around the ship, Fina was curious about the ship and what it was like on the outside. She got out of bed. After a bit of looking around the lower deck of the ship and the bridge, she decided to go to the outer part of the deck. The view of the sky was breathtaking, like something out of a dream. Just then, Vyse came from below deck and saw Fina near the ship's side rail.

"Hey Fina. How are you doing?" he asked

"I'm feeling much better. Thank you for your concern." she replied

"heh...no problem. I'm just happy to see that your doing well. Looks like we'll be the island soon." said Vyse

"Island?" said Fina with a puzzled look on her face.

"You can see it right over there." replied Vyse, pointing to a fairly small island. "Thats our base...Pirate Isle."

"Pirate Isle..." Fina said to herself.

Pirate Isle, home to all of the Blue Rogues. Many of the homes were quite small and mostly made of wood of a light brown to dark brown color. Sinigles were used to cover the roofs. Most of the houses were two-stories, others were one. In the center of the town was a windmill, along with a ladder that reached high into the sky and on top was small island, only big enough to hold 10 people.

As the ship approched the side of the island, the island gave way, open a door attached by chains, allowing the ship to enter the island. As the ship entered, Fina was in awe of what she had saw. The ship soon docked underground with everyone bring parts of treasure from the raid off. The underground was carved away to make room for other building inside it. On the top was were the HQ was, along with a door to allow you to the village portion outside. Everyone gathered around the loot.

"Weapons, armor, gold...Now THIS is a great catch! One of our best yet!" stated Timmus, the gunner, obvestly happy with the loot stolen from the raid.

"Tonight, we should celebate!" cheered Mabel the Raider. "Yeah!" cheered everyone else.

"Well Fina, this is what we do! What do you think?" asked Aika

"Well...it certainly looks challenging." Fina replied

"I don't know if challenging is the right word... a pain sounds better." remarked Kev

"Hahaha, challenging huh...Well, now that you mention it, it isn't easy but it is fun!" Aika added

"We're in an underground port inside of Pirate Isle. From the outside, this island looks like a quiet, peaceful village but the inside is where our headquarters is located." said Vyse

"There are armories, shops, and even a tavern inside here. Come on, we'll give you a tour." added Aika

Just then, a voice from atop the underground sounded. "Vyse!" called his father, Dyne. "Come to my office immediately...and bring that girl with you." He then dissappered into the small headquaters.

"I wonder what that was all about." stated Aika

"Knowing Vyse's father, it's probably something serious." said Kev

"Whatever it is, we'd better hurry. You know how my dad gets when we're late." said Vyse. The four then started up to the headquaters.
----

Hope I get some more reviews. :D

EDIT: Added something to the first post, hopefully to help people get an idea of the setting.

It's good so far, just need to brush up on your description a bit. Words like "stated" and "replied" are almost as dry as "said," so you should replace them with words like "exclaimed," "concurred," and "gasped." Use a thesaurus if you can't think of anything.

Also, when you explain details about characters, settings, and things like that, it's better to show rather than tell. For example, when you said, " She has red hair with two ponytails coming out behind her head. She also has a pair of pink goggles sitting on top of her head. you could have instead said something like "The wind blew through Aika's red ponytails as she stood, dignified." It's a good story, though, even though I don't know much about the game.

Here's the start of Chapter 3.
----

So the four of them started their way to the top of the underground. Despite knowing the wrath of Dyne was waiting for them if they happened to be late, the four decided to take a quick pit stop at the tavren, one of the more popular spots of the underground. Upon entering, the four saw another group of pirates sitting around one of the tables in the tavren.

"Cheers!" yelled the group. The three pirates took a swig of their drinks.

"Haha...Loqua sure does hit the spot. Captain Dyne really does know how to pick his Loquat Berries. This stuff is good!" exclaimed Timmus

"Hmm? Should you really be sitting here drinking loqua with the rest of us when you've got a beautiful, hard-working wife waiting for you at home?" asked Mabel the Raider

"Hey! There's nothing wrong with relaxing with friends after a hard day's work!" replied Timmus

Vyse, Aika and Kev stood in the doorway with embrassed, yet smiling, looks on their faces while Fina stood with a stright look on her face.

"My, oh my...This place sure is full...Fina, this is our tavern...They serve all kinds of drinks here: nectars, juices, loqua..." said Aika

Fina, still puzzled about this world, asked "Um...Excuse me, but what exactly is "loqua?"

"WHAT?! Fina...you really don't know what loqua is?" Vyse stated, quite surprised at the question.

"Come on Vyse...do you think she'd know what loqua is if she didn't know what Air Pirates were when we first meet?" remarked Kev with a cool smirk on his face.

Fina blushed in embrassment. "Well...um...I don't know exactly, but it appears to be a really good tasting drink of some kind. Everyone appears to be drinking it so fervently...it must be delicious."

"You want to share a bottle with us?" asked Mabel. "It's made from Loquat Berries and Moon Stones. Its just juice but it takes great!"

"Nonono! We don't have time to sit around right now! We need to see the Cap'n!" exclaimed Aika

"Why? Are we not supposed to be here?" Fina said, sounding quite confused

"Well, the Cap'n is always getting on our case for being late and stuff...I really don't want to get into any more trouble today..." explained Aika

"Heh...Yeah, my dad can get pretty worked up when he's mad. We wouldn't want him to have a heart attack now, would we?" remarked Vyse

"Haha, your so mean to your dad, you know that Vyse?" replied Aika

"Then we should get going. We don't want to see how mean he can be to us if we're late." Kev commeted

So after seeing the wonders of the pirate's tavern, the four went right back out the door. As they traveled up, they quickly saw the other shops along the way. Apon reaching the top, they saw headquaters and went inside, looking to see Cap'n Dyne and his Vice Captain standing next to him.

"Vyse, Aika and Kev reporting for duty. We've brought Fina like you requested." said Vyse

The three walked closer to where Dyne was sitting, while Kev took a spot next to him, Kev being one of his top advisors.

"Your alittle late but I'll let it slide this time. Young lady, I am Dyne, Captain of the Blue Rouges. I have a few questions for you. Will you answer them for me?" asked Dyne

"Of...of course." replied FIna with nervousness is her voice

"I've been sailing for a long time but never seen clothes like yours before. What country are you from and why are you here?" Dyne questioned

"Cap'n Dyne, you worry too much. Fina is just a normal girl." replied Aika

"Silent Aika. I am the captain here. It is my duty to protect the safety of my family and crew. If she is a danger of any sort, I cannot let her live." snapped Dyne

Aika's face grew with worry and nervousness.

"Cap'n...let's not be so rash..." advised Kev

Fina, keeping quiet all the while, finally spoke. "I...I cannot say." she replied.

"Why is that? Is it because we're Air Pirates? Don't you trust us?" asked Dyne

"No, that's not it. I thank you with all my heart for saving me...but I cannot tell any living soul about the purpose of my quest, even if it means sacrifing my life." she answered. "I have no intention of endangering any of your lives. If you believe anything, please believe this."

Dyne sat quiet for a minute, then gave his answer. "...alright then. Heh...looks like I lost this one. I understand your dilemma and I can see that your true to your word. Althrough we are Air Pirates, we also have a strong sence of honor. You don't need to divulge the details of your quest. You now have my trust. Be careful that you don't lose it."

"Thank you kindly Cap'n Dyne...I will not dissapoint you." said Fina

"Vyse, Aika, Kev..Bring the girl...Fina topside and show her the village." asked Dyne

"Now thats more like it!" cheered Aika. "Way to go, Dad! Your the best!" added Vyse

"How many times have I told you? Its "Cap'n", not "Dad." Alright, your dismissed. Don't be late for dinner." said Dyne
