04I: Cold Hard Fact

04I: Cold Hard Fact

Back in Bodhum

We now cut to Snow, who is prisoner on board a large airship - he seems to have a somewhat friendly relationship with the woman who took him prisoner.  The CS cuts to inside where Snow is marched to an audience with the Lord High Mucky-Muck, Sid Raines, Brigadier General of the Fleet.

The confrontation grows hotter as the General makes it clear with his words and attitude just how much he views you - and Serah - as objects.  The plan is to execute you all publicly - and he plans on you helping him do it!

We now get a CS of Day 7 at the Seaside City of Bodhum.  Serah and Snow are having a chat - and she reveals something that he did not know...  Serah is trying to break up with Snow in a nice way, but he pushes the issue until she reveals that she is a L'Cie!  Well, that is clearly news to Snow - and as you watch his little brain explodes!  Well, not really, but still.

Snow chases after Serah but does not manage to find her - and then we have control of Snow in the flashback!  How cool is that?  You cannot do anything with his kit or levels, because after all this is a flashback, but you can run along the beach, and you do!

You can talk to you friends, ask them if they have seen Serah, and then, once you have spoken with everyone you are supposed to, you find Serah at the end of the dock.  You run up and, in a he-man I-will-not-be-disobeyed voice you tell her where to head in.  Clearly she wants to be with you, but she is also afraid of what will happen to her - that she will become a monster.  Snow convinces her that he has her back and she agrees that they should team up to find her Focus.

At this point you will be changing discs if you are on the 360 - and then you get a CS with Lightning and Hope in which you are sneaking through an area past the patrols and military.  Hope finally steps up to the plate, taking the initiative with Lightning and we are back in control, but this time as Hope!

You should now unlock the Achievement/Trophy 'Instrument of Vengeance' which signals the end of a chapter!
