Shooting Lessons

Final Fantasy X-2 drabble

By Ataramos

If you aim at nothing, you'll hit it every time.


"What in all of Spira were you aiming at?"

"The fiend!"

"You sure could have fooled me!"

"Look, Im sorry I hit you in the back."

"The back? Try lower."

A fit of giggles met this revelation. "Really?"

Bright green eyes scowled at the source of the giggling. "No, I'm holding it because Im afraid it'll fall off!"

Giggles turned into all out laughter, the one laughing barely able to breathe. "I..then...you should be glad they aren't real bullets!"

"Who thought to give you guns, anyway?"

"You did!"

Rikku muttered as she continued to glare at Yuna, who had to sit down in the sand she was laughing so hard. "Yeah, well...next time I stand -behind- you when I teach you how to use those things! Were you -really- aiming at the fiend?"

Yuna wiped the back of her eyes. "Okay, so I was kinda aiming at nothing." Her eyes shone with amusement as she eyed Rikku's backside, or relative lack of such, the younger girl still quite lanky and not quite having a more feminine form just yet. "Guess I can hit that!"

Her laughter echoed through the island as she fled from her cousin, the shooting lesson now quite forgotten.


Authors Note:

Welcome to my drabbles! What's a drabble? A drabble is just a short little story based on a random inspiration, oft times never any longer than a page in Word. Each chapter will be a different drabble, it's own title, and the inspiration listed below the title in itallics. These came about when I joined a Livejournal community specifically desgined to inspire writers, at least a little bit each day, with the quote or statement that I'll include with the story. So far, there are currently only stories inspired by Final Fantasy X-2, but I suspect that there shall be some SailorMoon drabbles in the future. Hope you enjoy, and maybe you'll find some little bit of inspiration too.
