(What would have happened with Rikku if she never joined the gang? well here's her story!)

*her eyes opened slowly...peering around through her unfocused eyes*

...wh...where am I???

*she lifts up her hand, she looks at it and sees the sand all over it*

unghhh...I'm all dirty...and...my back hurts!!

*she stands to her feet, looking at her wretched Al Bhed outfit...she shrugs and unzips it from the back, and throws off her mask.*

mmmm..I guess I'll go straight...even though I have no clue where I am...

*she walks...maybe for 15 minutes...and she comes upon a place full of lights and happy children. She stands there on a platform, things flying over her heads*

oh...oh...someone tell me where am I???

*a group of people stop and stare at her, like all time stopped when she bursted out*

eh...eh heh heh...

*some kids come up to her, one with blonde pigtails and one with spikey hair*

w...whassup wif yer eyes??/?

...uh...oh...um...

they're all spirally and stuff!!!!

*the people surrounding her now gasp, a crowd forms like a stampede...all curious about this girl who dresses funny and has odd eyes*

*pushing and shoving occur*

hey...uh..h..hey!!!

*an old man with a cane steps through, his cane lights up a light blue and makes sparks as it hits the floor*

step back! please step back and let me have a look at the girl!

*Rikku sighs, feeling better...well kinda better...now that the man has stepped in*

*the old man looks at her eyes* Just as I thought....hmmm...Come with me!

*he grabs her wrist like a child and takes her away...making a line through the crowd*

*he takes her to a small metal house with a blue glow*

Please...sit.

Yes...alright...

The gods? How come they had ta tell yah? Where am I?
