I'm worried about Yeul.
Yeah. But...if we're going to fight, we can't afford to have doubts. She's hoping for a better future, and believes we can make it.
Look! The fake Caius was sent out from this place.
But where's the enemy that Yeul warned us about?
The Proto fal'Cie! So this is what Teul meant by 'sentient machine.'
This thing has been behind everything. It's the one who turned the people into Cie'th...
...and it's the one who's been trying to kill us in the tower!
I don't understand. How did the future Proto fal'Cie end up here?
This place must be like the Void Beyond. A crossroads where the future and past intersect.
And that would enable time travel.
Noel, do you realize what this means? The Proto fal'Cie could have used this place to travel through time and infiltrate the artificial intelligence.
Then it could have manipulated the AI to kill all the humans in the tower...
...and build the fal'Cie of Academia's future.
You're saying the Proto fal'Cie took control of the AI and ordered it to build...the Proto fal'Cie.
It's a closed loop, a chiken-and-egg paradox.
Right. A paradox is exactly what it is. The Proto fal'Cie was trying to protect the distortion that gave birth to it.
And it knew all along that it was part of the paradox.
Just a sec! If the Proto fal'Cie can manipulate the past, that means...
It can travel back in time and rebuild itself.
As long as the crossroads exist, you cannot defeat the Proto fal'Cie, kupo!
No way.
Dammit!
Hey! What are we going to do now?
Mog!
We gotta stop it!
Noel!
Serah, now!
Serah, now!
Perfect!
Okay, my turn!
See how you like...
...this!
...this!
Time for you to go away - for good!
Thanks to Mog, huh?
Thanks to Mog, huh?
Kupo!
Kupo!
You guys play rough, kupo!
You saved the day.
Yeah, thank you, You did great.
Not again?
Not again?
This is Hope's fault.
Huh?
Huh?
He was the one who started building these things. The Proto fal'Cie and AI both.

Ah, will you listen to me, looking around for scapegoats. These fights are really starting to wear me down.
I don't blame you.
It's not going to do us any good whining about the mistakes of the past.
If we don't stop this thing from regenerating, we're never going to get out of here!
I got it. It's not reaching through time and reviving itself -
these are all just test copies of the Proto fal'Cie.
Okay, so you're saying the original hasn't shown itself yet?
It does seem to be a little different every time we fight it.
Right? And if that's true...
We just have to keep taking out copies, until only the original fal'Cie is left.
Let's do this!
I'm starting to think there is no 'original' fal'Cie.
I guess my theory was wrong.
The machine is manipulating the past. But then... there's no reason we can't, either.
Please. I hope you're watching this.
Hope! Can you hear me!? I've got a bone to pick with you. These machines you built...
Hope! Can you hear me!? I've got a bone to pick with you. These machines you built...
...are driving me nuts!
You did it, Serah.
But, i didn't do anything. At least, i don't think i did.
Serah? Are you all right? Can you hear me?
Noel...i'm alive?
Ah, what a relief.
Ah, what a relief.
You worry too much, Noel.
Noel isn't himself these days.
I wonder if it's because he can't remember the future.
It's under standable. No one wants to think they'll forget something...
...that's important to them.
You know something, when you get mad, you sure do remind me of your sister.
Careful. She might be watching, you know.
I hope we are returning to a better future.
I'm sure of it.
We did it. We actually did it.
I think Yeul must be happy now.
This is what you wanted to see, wasn't it?
Welcome to the future you saved.
Are they real?
Now is that a polite way to greet old friends?
I mean, we haven't seen each other in, what, how many years?
It's been all of 390 years. I guess you guys have been busy, huh?
Please come by my headquarters when you get a chance. You're guests of the Academy.
Later!
Where do we find the Academy head office?
It's probably the most impressive-looking building. What about that one?
So that's the Thirteenth Ark. You ever heard of it, Noel?
No, it was never mentioned in the histories. Not in the future i came from.
We might be getting close to the true timeline.
I hope so.
But i wonder why we couldn't see it when we were here before.
Maybe the Proto fal'Cie was hiding it from us.
But why?
People have always looked to the sky for signs of hope.
Something's definity gone wrong with this gate.
Spacetime is twisted so the gate can't manifest, kupo. When the future is made certain, the gate will be fixed, kupo.

'Future made certain'? Does that mean we should help the Academy with their important job?

It can't be... Amodar?
You know him?
Yeah, he was in Cocoon's army. Lightning served in his unit. I've met him lots of times.
I am Captain Cryptic, quiz-giver extraordinaire! So, little lady, how about that quiz?
That's weird, he doesn't remember me.
Serah, the Amodar that you used to know lived hundreds of years ago. Which means...
Hey, uh, Captain? You're not human, are you?
Correct! Captain Cryptic is a quiz-centric duplicate.
Let's get started then!
And we're still on the easy questions! Oh, boy.
He doesn't seem to have anything to do with the man you knew. Are they really that similar?
Like twins. How did this happen?
Hope told us that he invented a machine called a time capsule.
That's how they got here.
Back in 13 AF, Hope devised a plan to build an artificial fal'Cie.
It was called the Proto fal'Cie Project.
He wanted to use the new technology to re-levitate Cocoon.
But then, one day, Hope saw a Certain prophecy in the Oracle drive...
So i activated the Oracle Drive and watched the prophecy. I saw you fighting the Proto fal'Cie. And i saw you screaming out at me.
'Your machines are driving me nuts!'
Well, i was getting pretty ticked off by that point.
Well, exactly. So we were forced to reevaluate the project, and eventually abandoned it.
Okay. You saw Serah getting mad at you, so you canceled your project, and then poof, the Proto fal'Cie disappeared. Is that about tight?
We didn't destroy it so much as it never existed in the first place.
We were following the wrong path to the future.
If the Proto fal'Cie had managed to get control of Cocoon...
...it would have made itself the second Eden, and we'd be back where we began.
Yeah. It would've been just like how it was on the old Cocoon.
We realized we couldn't let that happen. We had to levitate Cocoon using only human technology.
Right. Not to mention that if you had kept with the original plan, your machines would have killed you.
Really? Then we owe you our lives. Thank you.
Funny, you lose your temper, and the whole future changes.
