A Change of HeartChapter 1
(Yuna's POV)
Beep, beep, beep… I hit the snooze button on my alarm clock and brought the covers over my head. Urgh! Today was the first day of school, just another year of being tortured by Dona Green and her friends. The bedroom door squeaked open, and I heard Rikku come bouncing in.
"Wake up, Yunie; it's time to get ready for school!" she cried gleefully. I moaned and pulled my pillow over my head. Rikku sighed and threw the covers off of my body, letting the cold air hit me.
"Rikku!" I yelled.
"Come on Yuna; I already picked out your clothes for you, all you have to do is get in the shower," Rikku said, and danced out of the room. I sighed and got out of bed, I dreaded seeing what she picked out for me. Rikku was my Al Bhed cousin who was 17, and a senior in high school. She is always hyper and cheerful. She could make anyone smile if she wanted to; yet, she had a feisty side to her too. She was just…Rikku.
I got in the shower and let the hot water relax me. I washed my hair and got out. As I was finishing up blow-drying my hair, Lulu came up and helped me with my braid (her hair is like the way it was in ffx-2). She tied a simple white ribbon at the end and went back to her room to finish getting ready. Lulu has been my best friend for like ever. She is strong minded, stubborn, and a take charge type of person; in other words she was bossy. There were some times where she was really sweet and caring too though. She was 18, a senior in high school, had porcelain like skin, black long hair; she wore purple lipstick, and usually always had on something black; she was a black mage.
I walked out of the bathroom that was connected to my room and went over to the closet. There was a short blue denim skirt, a white V-neck shirt with a pink tank top underneath, and a pair of white sandals to go with it sitting out, waiting for me. I guess it could be worse. I dressed quickly and looked at myself in the mirror; I had to admit, I looked pretty good, but as I looked at the clock I realized that I didn't have to time to do anything more with myself; we were leaving in a few minutes. I grabbed my bag and stuffed my books in it.
"Come on, Yunie, or we'll leave with out you," Rikku yelled from downstairs. I quickly threw my backpack over my shoulder, grabbed my purse, and ran out to the car.
"Finally," Lulu complained as I got in the back seat.
"Just go," I said to her. She nodded and drove away from our home.
As she drove, I thought about all of the things that I was going to have to deal with again. All of the pain and sadness that I wish I could just leave behind and all of the people that brought it all back.
My parents had died when I was around 4 or 5 and left me with my Al Bhed uncle, Cid, and cousin, Rikku. In the middle of our sophomore year, Lulu had invited Rikku and me to move in with her. We both wanted our freedom from Uncle Cid, so we agreed.
Lulu lived in a nice, two story house that had many rooms and was like ten minutes from the school. We were all going back to school as seniors this year, and couldn't wait until high school was over.
There were, of course, your typical geeks and in between people that went there. Then there were the popular people. Dona and her friends were the cheerleaders who picked on everyone they could and wore the shortest and skimpiest clothes you could find.
Then came the jocks; most of them were cocky jerks that just partied all of the time, including Wakka Auroch and Tidus Alamsy, who was the team's best player. Then there were the people who weren't really popular but weren't exactly geeks either; they were just… tough.
Squall and Paine Leonhart were some of those people. They were siblings, both at the age of 18 and were seniors, looked a lot alike, and were very quiet. No one dared to mess with them. Paine was a good friend of ours, though. She was quiet and nice most of the time, but always had a mean side to her. She always hung out with us for some reason and stood up for me when Dona came around. Paine usually only warmed up to me and really ever talked when she talked with me.
She was tall, had short, gray-like hair, and had burgundy eyes. Squall was quiet and kind of cold hearted. He never really showed any emotion or talked to any one; but he did seem to hang out with Tidus and Wakka. I internally sighed at the thought of school again and wished it were over.
(Tidus's POV)
I wondered why my alarm clock hadn't gone off and decided to see what time it was. I turned to my dresser and saw that it was 7:50! Crap, school starts in 10 minutes! I couldn't be late on the first day. I jumped out of bed and went straight to my closet; I wasn't going to have time to take a shower. I grabbed the first things my hands could touch. I ended up picking out a white shirt and a pair of jeans. I brushed my hair, grabbed my bag and got in my car.
(Yuna's POV)
I was snapped out of my thoughts by the sound of Rikku squealing as we came into view of the school. I rolled my eyes and could see Lulu doing the same in the rear view mirror.
We finally found a parking spot and got out of the car. As I was adjusting my bag, I saw a black car pull up beside us. Squall got out of the driver's seat and Paine got out of the passenger's. I smiled at Paine and looked over at Squall, but of course, he showed no emotion at all.
When I looked at Rikku, I noticed that she was staring at Squall and had a distant look in her eyes. I giggled, knowing that Rikku had had a crush on Squall for like ever.
Squall was tall and very muscular. He had dark brown hair that fell onto his piercing blue eyes and there was a scar that went from under his left eye to across the bridge of his nose and onto his forehead a little. He had a mysterious look to him and never really opened up to anyone. You rarely saw him smile; he mostly just frowned. Today he was wearing his normal outfit: a tight black shirt, a pair of baggy black pants and 4 or 5 belts.
As Paine came over to us and Squall started walking away, I saw him look at Rikku from the corner of his eye and smirk when he saw her staring at him. I quickly nudged her in the arm and she got out of her dream like state and started blushing furiously.
"Well I'm going to my locker, are you guys coming?" Lulu asked with an amused look on her face. We nodded and followed her.
(Squall's POV)
Paine and I pulled up next to her friends Lulu, Yuna, and Rikku. As I got out I noticed that the hyper Al Bhed one, Rikku, was looking at me. She was tall, skinny but strong, tan, and feisty. She had really big green eyes that had swirls in them and had blonde hair that was up with small braids hanging down.
Today she was wearing a pair of tight, really short khaki shorts and a tight orange tank top. She looked pretty hot. Paine walked over to Yuna as I walked towards the school. As I was leaving I noticed that Rikku was still staring at me. I couldn't help but smirk at her. Yuna nudged her in the arm and she quickly looked away blushing. Yuna giggled, Paine rolled her eyes and Lulu had an amused look on her face. I just shock my head and walked towards the school.
(Yuna's POV)
We reached our lockers quickly; we had had the same lockers since the beginning of high school and luckily, ours were close to each other. I reached for my lock and put in the combination. I put some of my books away and went over to Rikku's locker when I was done. As I was walking to hers I saw Tidus walking down the hall towards me. He was wearing this tight, white t-shirt that totally hugged his abs and a pair of baggy jeans.
His blonde hair was kind of long and messy; it stopped at his eyes and bounced whenever he walked. He was naturally tanned and had a well-built body. His smile was perfect and had an effect over most girls. But what had the most effect over me were his eyes.
They were an ocean blue color and had a certain sparkle to them. It's like they were a deep pool of ocean that I could get lost in for—wait, what am I thinking? This is Tidus. I shouldn't be thinking this way about him. I just shock my head and tried to ignore him as we got closer to each other, but I was unsuccessful. I ended up glancing up and at him and me immediately regretted it. I saw his blue eyes meet my blue and green ones and got lost in them just like I thought I would.
His stare made my stomach do flips, and my heart sped up. I swear; it was beating so loud that he could hear it. I could feel heat creep onto my checks and tried to tear my eyes away from his. I saw him smile at me as we came side by side and was finally able to look away from him. I could feel my face was really hot now and wished that I wasn't so close to Rikku's locker already cause she was going to start asking questions when she saw me.
When I felt that it was safe to look at him again, I saw that he was already at his locker with none other than Dona. All thoughts of him that came to my mind when he just looked at me disappeared and were replaced with the same ones I had of him before: that he was just a cocky jerk that thought of nothing except girls. How could I even think about Tidus like that; how could I let the thought of him make me blush? I just shook my head trying to get ride of these thoughts and got ready to put on a smile for when I reached Rikku.
(Tidus's POV)
It didn't take me too long to get there so I had enough time to get to my locker. As I was walking, I saw Yuna Lesca walking down the hall towards me. She looked at me for a moment and then shook her head and looked down. I frowned and wondered why she did that.
A few seconds later she looked up at me and starred into my eyes. I couldn't look away from her. Her eyes were so beautiful; one of them was like a forest green color and the other was a sky blue. They were amazing. I couldn't take my eyes away from hers.
Her cheeks started turning a little pink, and when I smiled at her, they turned red. She looked away from me then and walked a little faster. I'd never really noticed Yuna before. She had short brown hair that had one long braid cascading down her back. Her eyes were soft and sweet and her smile would make anyone smile back.
Today, she was wearing this short denim skirt, a white shirt with a pink undershirt and white flip-flops. She didn't load up on the make up like most girls; she was already beautiful and didn't need it. Natural beauty.
She was always quiet and mostly just hung out with her cousin, Paine and Lulu but there were a lot of people that liked her. She was nice and caring. She kept to herself most of the time, unlike someone I unfortunately knew.
I got to my locker, and when I was opening it, Dona walked up. I almost turned around and ran, but I needed my book for class.
"Tidus!" Dona exclaimed. I didn't look at her; I just kept putting books in my locker and getting some out.
"What do you want, Dona?" I asked her, not exactly nicely. I shut my locker and saw her giving me a puppy dog look. I just rolled my eyes.
"Is that anyway to talk to your girlfriend?" she asked. Why did she automatically think that she was my girlfriend?
"You're not my girlfriend Dona, so just leave me alone," I told her and started walking away.
"What do you mean 'I'm not your girlfriend'"? She asked all mad. I almost started laughing; what does she think I mean? How stupid can you be?
I didn't even bother turning around; I just looked over my shoulder and said, "Exactly what I said, you're not my girlfriend and I don't like you, so stop acting like it." She practically screamed at that. Wakka came up to me and nodded towards Dona; I just shook my head and asked for his schedule.
Wakka has been my best friend throughout all of high school; we were both seniors now. He was somewhat slow but was still a good guy. He had fire red hair that stuck straight up and kind of curved around at the top. He was really tan and loved Blitzball like me but wasn't as good. When we first met we immediately got close.
Squall, our other buddy, is a little different. He was more into his Gunblade than Blitzball, and never really talked to anyone except us. Why, I do not know, and I really don't think he does either.
I checked his classes and found out that I had science with him, swordsmanship with Squall, and since I was on the Blitzball team, me and Wakka had practice third period, Literature with both of them, Lunch, Art alone, English with both, and math with Squall.
(Yuna's POV)
Paine was already there with Rikku, and it looked like Rikku was annoying Paine.
"You are losing Respect Points, Rikku, say anything else and you'll be in the negatives," Paine warned. Rikku gasped and started pouting.
"But that's not fair! Aww! Come on, Paine!" Rikku begged. Paine had a little bit of an amused look in her eyes, but just asked to see my schedule.
Rikku immediately cheered up and gave her schedule to Paine, too. I had History with Rikku and Paine, Swordsmanship with Paine, Art with Lulu, Literature with everyone, Lunch, Singing alone, English with everyone, and Math with everyone.
The bell rang and we headed towards our class. I couldn't wait for sword class, 'cause Paine and I usually battle against each other at her house to test my skills, but what she doesn't know is that I've been practicing without her too.
History was boring; all we did was go over the 'class rules'.
Finally the bell rang. I waved bye to Rikku as she headed off towards her next class and Paine and I went to Swordsmanship. When we entered the gym, we saw that the boys were sitting one side of the bleachers and the few girls that were there were sitting on the other side. I looked at Paine, but she just shrugged and headed for the bleachers with me close behind her.
As we sat down, I looked at the group of people here and noticed that Squall, of course, was here, I kind of figured that he would be, but I also saw that Tidus was with him. Squall was saying something to Tidus and didn't even notice that we had come in. What was he doing here? I didn't think he was into this kind of thing. As if he knew that someone was starring at him, he stopped talking with Squall and started looking around the room.
I quickly looked away from him and at Paine. She must have been watching me, 'cause she had an eyebrow raised, but also a questioning look on her face. Her eyes flashed in their direction and her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. I dared to take a look and see what was going on and wished that I hadn't.
Both Tidus and Squall were now turned in our direction. Tidus was looking at me while Squall was looking at Paine but when he saw me turn around he looked at me and then at Tidus and smirked for the second time today. Tidus asked Squall something, never taking his eyes off of mine. Squall looked at Paine for a moment then started talking to Tidus again. His eyes lingered on me for a while longer but I looked away before Paine and Squall could start thinking something was up between us. When I looked back at Paine, I could see that she already thought that.
(Tidus's POV)
Science was so boring, the teacher was so afraid of the students that we all just talked the whole time. The bell finally rang and I headed towards the gym for sword class. Of course, Squall was already there. I went over and sat down on the bleachers next to him.
"What's up, Squall?" I asked him. He just looked at me.
"What happened with you and Dona?" he asked. I just scowled at his remark and looked away. I looked around the room at all of the people that had signed up and noticed that there were hardly any girls.
As I scanned the girl's side of the room, I saw Paine and Yuna. Yuna was looking this way but when she saw me she turned back to Paine. Paine looked at her for a moment than looked back towards us. Squall must have noticed them also because I saw him looking, too.
"I kind of figured that Paine would take this class but…Yuna?" I asked Squall not taking my eyes away from her, who was now looking at me again.
"She and Paine do this all of the time at my house, like you and I do on the weekends. Except, she's over like three times a week or so. She's actually quite good," Squall said.
I almost laughed. Yuna? Good with a sword? This time I turned away from her and looked at him. He just shook his head and pointed at our teacher coming through one of the gym doors.
(Yuna's POV)
Just then our teacher walked in, and I saw that it was Sir Auron.
"Good morning, class. As some of you may know, I am Sir Auron, and I will be your teacher. Now today, I would like to have some volunteers to come up here a show us what they can do. Do I have any?" Paine and I immediately raised our hands, as did Squall and Tidus. Everyone looked at us, some with amusement and others with doubt.
Auron looked at Paine and me and raised an eyebrow, then copied to movement towards the boys.
"Hmm… this might be interesting. Let's have a battle with…Yuna against Tidus, and Paine against Squall. The winners will battle each other."
Paine and Squall must have both found it amusing that Tidus would be against me and they would be against each other. I had really hoped to fight against Paine, but I guess I'd just have to make sure that I won. Hopefully Paine would win against her brother but that fight was going to be a very tough battle because Squall was really good with a sword, and even better with his Gunblade.
I hope that I don't have to fight him. I looked at Tidus and saw that he was smiling, he probably thought that this was going to be an easy win for him since I was a girl; well, he'd better not cut me any slack because he's going down!
I turned to Paine and said, "You'd better win, because I don't want to fight Squall!"
She looked at me and asked, "And what makes you think that Tidus isn't going to beat you?" I almost burst out laughing but restrained myself and just smiled.
"You may go and get ready. I will call you in five minutes," Auron continued. Paine and I walked down the bleachers and headed towards the girls' locker room. We both changed into our Warrior dresspheres (the ones that they wear in ffx-2) and got our weapons ready.
Five minutes later, a bell sounded, and we walked out of the lockers and headed towards the center of the gym where Auron was.
Once we were there he started going over the rules.
"Both battles get one half of the gym floor; the white lines indicate your boundaries. Now you are to disarm your opponent, and to disarm only," he declared as he looked at both of the teams. He nodded and continued, "Okay, please take your marks and get ready."
We all headed to our half of the gym and stood across from each other. Auron looked at both battle areas and then blew the whistle. Immediately I heard clanking of swords behind us and knew that Squall and Paine were already fighting. Tidus looked at the other team and wasn't focusing on me so I took this opportunity to make my move. He obviously wasn't expecting it, because he barely raised his sword in time to block mine.
He looked at me with disbelief in his eyes like he couldn't believe that I was actually going to do that, or that I had this much strength. I smirked and pushed my sword against his. His cocky attitude and doubt in me disappeared and he was now fighting with more strength.
We exchanged many blocks and hits, and as my strength was wearing down, I could tell that his was too. I swung at him but he blocked it, causing our swords to get entangled, which brought our bodies very close together.
I waited until I felt that he let his guard down for just a second, brought all of the strength that I could surface and knocked the sword out of his hand. It flew only a few meters from us, and I had hoped that Auron would have seen that I had disarmed him, but he was watching the other battle.
(Tidus's POV)
I was surprised by the speed and strength that Yuna attacked me with. Squall wasn't joking when he said that she was good. The more she threw at me, the more I did in response. I was getting tired quickly, and so was she, but she kept going. What was it that drove and motivated her?
She threw another hit at me, but I blocked it and entangled our swords together. I pushed a little, which made her sword go upward and brought her body closer to mine. My arm was shaking because it was so sore and I knew that I wasn't going to be able to hold out much longer. Before I could even blink she had knocked my sword out of my hands with such force that it pushed me backwards. The sword went flying to the floor a few meters from us and I saw Yuna look towards Auron, but he wasn't looking at us.
(Yuna's POV)
Tidus slowly started backing up towards his sword, but I decided to get to it first. It wasn't too far from me, so I somersaulted toward it with my sword in my right hand. Before my left one could reach the floor I grabbed the handle of his sword, pushed off when I felt that I had it securely in my palm and twirled in the air. I landed on my feet with both swords in my hands aimed towards him. Sir Auron noticed that and blew the whistle for our side. I walked back over to a shocked Tidus, handed him his sword and bowed my head slightly. Then Auron came over to us.
"Very good, Yuna, I'm impressed. You both did very well. Now, I'm anxious to see who will win the other battle." And with that said, he turned and watched Paine and Squall duel.
I moved away from Tidus, creating distance between us and watched with worry. It looked like Squall might be winning but they moved so fast that I could hardly tell. They continued on for a few more minutes until Squall knocked the sword out of Paine's hand. Oh man, I was going to have to fight Squall! I was going to kill Paine for losing. There was no way I was going to beat him. Auron blew the whistle and announced the winners.
"Our champions are Yuna and Squall. We will have a five minute break and then the final battle will begin." I didn't want to stay near Tidus so I headed towards Paine.
"Paine, how could you lose? Now I have to fight Squall!" I snapped at her as I got closer. She just shrugged and leaned against the wall. "Oh well, I guess its good practice for me." I sighed as I sat down. Paine nodded and sat down too.
"Was Tidus easy?" she asked. I looked up at her and thought about her question.
"Yes and no. At first he was easy but he kept putting more strength in every swing when he realized that I wasn't giving up," I told her.
"We both saw the 'ending' of your duel. I see you've been practicing more than I thought you were," Paine commented with a smile. I was about to respond to her statement but her eyes darted to behind me and she raised an eyebrow. I turned around and saw that Tidus and Squall were looking at us. I smiled a shy smile and turned back around; Auron blew the whistle.
(Tidus's POV)
Squall walked over to me with a smirk on his face.
"I told you she was good," he said simply. I just glared at him. Yeah, she was good, but I lost, and he thought it was funny. "What? Don't tell me you're worried that she's going to think that you're a wimp now because she beat you."
"Shut up! You've got to fight her now!" I snapped at him. He just shrugged and leaned against the wall.
"You know she won't win. Paine's better than she is and she lost," he pointed out with a smile. I just shook my head and looked over at the girls. They were both sitting down talking. It looked like Paine was somewhat smiling but then her eyes flickered over to us and she raised an eyebrow. Yuna followed her gaze, smiled a small smile and turned back around.
Paine didn't look away from me; she just gave me this look. What did I do? Luckily, Auron blew the whistle and she turned her attention back on Yuna. I looked at Squall to see if he knew what she meant, but he just shook his head and walked towards Auron. I stayed where I was, and so did Paine.
(Normal POV)
Squall and Yuna met in the middle of the gym with some distance between them. The whistle sounded and Squall charged at her. She moved out of the way right as he was about to swing and tried to attack him from behind. He turned around blocked her hit just in time, pushing his sword against hers, causing her to fly back a little.
Their fight consisted of many blocks and hits, with much force and consistency. The fight was not as long as Squall and Paine's was, but it was still good for Yuna. She fought well, but Squall still won. Auron congratulated the four of them and said as a reward for volunteering and doing so well, that they'd be excused from tomorrow's activity. They headed towards the locker rooms, changed, and went on to their next class.
(Yuna's POV)
Art was pretty boring; the teacher just went over the basics of drawing and stuff. Lulu and I sat there, passing notes the whole time.
The bell rang and Lulu and I were the first ones out of there. On our way to Literature, Paine and Rikku met us in the hallway.
"Come on Dr. P! I saw you looking at him!" Rikku said excitedly. I looked over at Lulu and smiled.
"Respect Points, Rikku!" Paine warned. Rikku looked a little scared.
"Looking at who?" I asked. Rikku's fear went away and she squealed.
"She was looking at Baralai, I saw her," Rikku giggled, pointing at Paine, who was blushing a little.
Baralai was one of the popular guys that was actually nice to people. He was tall, had blue eyes, and white hair that stood straight up.
"Ohhhhh, Paine has a crush!" I said in between giggles. She turned to me and glared. I quickly put my head down and entered the class first.
There were hardly any people in the room, so we had the choice of picking our seats. I headed towards the back of the room and took a seat. I sat in the last seat in the row, Rikku sat in front of me with Paine on my right and Lulu in front of her. We were all talking and not really paying attention to who was coming in until the seat next to me was filled. I looked up and saw Tidus sitting there, smiling at me. Squall was in front of him with Wakka on Tidus's right.
(Seating arrangement going horizontally from left to right: 2nd to the last row: Lulu, Rikku, and Squall. Last row: Paine, Yuna, Tidus, and Wakka.)
"What are you guys doing here?" asked Rikku, looking at them.
"We take this class, too," Squall replied, not even looking at her.
"I know that, you big meanie, I meant what are you doing sitting by us?" she asked, glaring at him.
"Free country isn't it?" he replied, looking at her.
You could tell that she was getting mad now cause he just stared at him. She's probably going to start speaking in al bhed soon.
"E tuh'd lyna ruf vnaa dra luihdno ec! Oui zicd fyhd du ced rana du yhhuo ic, zang!" ("I don't care how free the country is! You just want to sit here to annoy us, jerk!") I couldn't help but laugh.
"What did you just say to me?" Squall exclaimed, looking from her to me.
"Nothing Squall, never mind," I said to him, and turned to Rikku and said, "It's fine Rikku, just calm down." She looked at me for a moment and smiled. She glared at Squall and faced forward.
I looked over at Tidus and saw that he was still looking at me. I raised an eyebrow at him but he was still just staring at me. I laughed a little and waved my hand in front of his face.
"Spira to Tidus!" Hello?" His eyes seemed to come back into focus and he realized that someone was talking to him.
"Huh? What?" He asked all confused like. He looked kind of cute, all lost.
"I said 'Spira to Tidus.' You were starring at me." I told him, giggling. His cheeks got a little red and he looked down. I turned away from him and started getting my books out.
"Um, Yuna? I didn't get to congratulate you on today, so I just wanted to tell you that I thought you did a really good job in swords class," Tidus mumbled, looking down.
(Tidus's POV)
'I didn't get to congratulate you; you did really good today.' Man that is so corny, and of course I had to say it to her. She probably thinks I'm retarded now or something.
"Thanks, Tidus. You did really well, too," she replied and smiled at me. I smiled too and looked into her eyes. I could feel myself getting lost in her eyes again and was disappointed when the teacher called for the class's attention and she broke our gaze. I sighed and tried to focus on the teacher.
Lunch (Yuna's POV)
I sighed with relief as the bell rang for lunch. Tidus was actually being nice to me. Is that possible? I guess it is… but why?
I still couldn't figure it out by the time I had already put my books away, was sitting down with everyone, and had my lunch out.
We were sitting at a round table at the end of the cafeteria, away from the popular table. Where I was sitting I could see Tidus, Wakka, and Squall sitting there. Of course Dona was talking to Tidus but he had this look of disgust on his face. I noticed that Rikku was looking at me and she seemed kind of mad. I looked at her and said, "What?"
"Were you listening to a word that I just said to you Yuna?" she demanded. I smiled innocently and tried to look apologetic.
"You weren't! What's wrong with you? You've been off in the Farplane since 4th period! What's up?" She asked annoyed. I was about to answer when I heard Tidus yelling from his table.
(Tidus's POV)
I was sitting at our table with Wakka and Squall. Baralai was sitting at the opposite side of the table from me looking bored. Dona came and sat down next to me. I rolled me eyes and tried to ignore her. But that didn't work out too well.
"Tiiiduuuuus, do you want to do something tonight?" She asked with a fake sugary voice and slipped her arm around mine. I pushed her away and looked at her; I couldn't take it anymore.
"I don't want to do anything with you Dona, not tonight, or ever, ok? Just leave me alone!" I yelled. Everyone turned and looked at me. I got up and stormed out of the cafeteria.
As I was leaving, I saw Yuna looking at me. I wanted to go over and sit by her, but I needed to get out of this room. I went out on to the campus and sat under a tree.
I leaned my head against the trunk, closed my eyes and sighed. I heard footsteps but just figured that it was someone passing by. Then I heard a soft, kind voice say my name. "Tidus?" I opened my eyes and saw that it was Yuna.
