Zidane didn't end up hearing Vivi, because of the crowd going wild for the competitors. Casting a glance over at Vivi, he gave a thumbs-up.

 

"You'll do fine!" he called over the din. "Believe in yourself, Vivi!"

 

The countdown began.

 

"5! 4! 3! 2! 1! HUNT!"

 

Zidane rushed towards the Theatre District, immediately managing to get into a battle with a creature, defeating it swiftly.

 

"Zidane is in the lead!" the announcer's voice boomed all over Lindblum. "Currently on 42 points!"

Freya took down a couple of creatures with ease with her spear, hearing her name announced with the highest score with 60 points.

 

"Hmm... I know a better way to test my skills..." She smiled, before heading to the aircab.

Vivi was backing away a bit as he had a Fang and three Trick Sparrows cornering him. He saw it trying to hurt a young woman and tried to get its attention. He closed his eyes, throwing his new staff forward, as it had been hit by a Thunder spell, seeming maginifed by the upgraded weapon, as they all fell over dead.

 

He suddenly heard a voice yell that he was in the lead with 72 points.

Vivi was shivering a little bit as Zidane made his way over, drawing his weapon for the battle.

 

"I... I don't know if I can do this... I was just trying to help those kids..."

 

"Allow me to assist you."

 

They looked up, as Freya jumped from the building she had perched on, and landed beside the two of them.

Freya looked over at Vivi, before jumping forward.

 

You were put in the Business District for a reason, Vivi... I knew the Zanghol was going to be around this area, and you would be the first to find it. If you want that date with Zidane... you better defeat it before Zidane does...

 

Vivi tightened his grip on his staff, as he threw his staff forward, summoning his Blizzara spell, causing it to weaken the beast's lightning abilities.

Zidane blinked in surprise and turned to see one last spell slamming into Zaghnol, the beast succumbing to its injuries, and fading into oblivion.

 

"Wha-?" the thief choked out. "What in the hell?"

 

The announcer's voice called out a new message.

 

"Vivi has defeated Zaghnol!" the voice boomed. "Vivi is now in first place with 777 points!"

 

The blond glared at Freya, realising what she'd done, and upon hearing there were only 10 seconds left, he scrambled to find one last enemy to push him into the lead. However, just as he found one and was about to deliver the killing blow, it vanished as a loud siren sounded, signalling time up.

 

"Congratulations!" the announcer boomed. "The winner of this year's Festival of the Hunt is Vivi, with 777 points!"

 

Zidane looked crestfallen, but he was gracious in defeat. Waiting for Vivi to get his Card, he walked over to him and grinned.

 

"Nice one..." he chuckled. "Guess you're the one who gets to date the princess."

Vivi had managed to free his hand in the confusion of the blonde hearing he didn't want to go out with Dagger...

 

He had to say something, Freya had helped him get this far, he had to do the rest on his own. That caused a small gulp.

 

"I... I didn't... I don't... want to... go out with D-Dagger... I want to..."

 

He bowed his head, his face feeling like it was in flames, especially the way the older was watching him.

 

"I want to... g-go out with... y... you..."

Just as he was about to speak up again, Vivi's confession came out, and it hit the tailed boy like a ton of bricks.

 

"What?!" he exclaimed. "Me? B-but I..."

 

That's when he realised all the signs were there. Vivi was always wanting to be around him, always holding his hand, always flustered whenever he smiled at him.

 

"I get it..." he said finally, his expression bewildered. "You're in love with me, aren't you Vivi?"

Vivi felt his face burn up into flames as if he had set a fire spell off on himself, as he fidgeted a little bit.

 

"...Y...Yes..."

 

Was it bad that he was in love with him...? He remembered passing by the place he grew up, and he saw two men in the alleyway, their arms wrapped around each other, and their lips pressed together in a kiss... he didn't think that there was anything wrong with that kind of thing.

Zidane felt his own face get warm. Someone actually went so far as to have fallen in love with him, though it wasn't who he expected. Resting his hands on Vivi's shoulders, he gave an uncertain stare into the mage's eyes.

 

"Vivi..." he said softly, averting his glance after a moment. "I'm not someone you should really be wanting to pursue. But... I am a man of my word... so we'll go on... our... date..."

 

Zidane didn't know why he felt so strange saying that.

Giving a chuckle, the blond nodded, his own stomach growling.

 

"Yeah..." he agreed. "The festival can take it out of you. Come with me. I know a great place. The food's cheap, but it's delicious."

 

With that said, Zidane began to slowly walk towards said restaurant, still keeping a hold of Vivi's hand.

 

How could I not have seen the way he feels? I bet Freya somehow knew... and she distracted me... Heh... well, I'd better have a good time. I don't want to upset him.

"A date huh?" Bobo seemed to muse. "First time I saw a guy wanting to go out with you. Well, since we got the winner of the Festival here, then pick whatever you want, free of charge."

 

Vivi seemed to perk a little bit as he heard that.

 

"Really? Thank you very much..."

 

Everyone was so nice in this city... he rather liked it.
