The Incident.
Braska was inside his manor watching Blitzball on the Sphere vision. One of his favourite players was about to do a Sphere shot and take the game away. Braska was up on his feet shouting and cheering along with his butler, Barkeep.
The Sphere shot was successful and the Bevelle Blitzer's had won the match. Barkeep started doing a funny little dance while Braska stood in front of the S.V with his arms in the air.
"Did they win?" Says a female voice from the hallway. Braska turns and sees a blond head poking around the corner. Braska ran and pulled the woman into a bear hug and carried her back to the S.V. Once she saw the scoring she hugged Braska back and started to dance as well.
"Were in the finals!" Shouts the woman now doing handstands and cartwheels all around the room. Once they had calmed down Braska said, "What brings you here, Rikku?"
"What? Cant a niece drop by her Uncle's for a visit?" She asks innocently.
"She could drop by to see her Uncle, but if the Uncle has a daughter who is practically best friends with the niece, then the Uncle sometimes has suspicions."
Rikku have a boyish grin and asked, "Is she up stairs?"
"No." Replied Braska. "She's with that Seymour lad." The sound of his name made him cringe. Rikku notices this and says, "Oh come on. Why don't you give him a chance? I mean, I've meet him and he seems alright."
"I don't care if he seems alright to you, but every time I see him I get a bad feeling." He replies.
"Fine." Silence for a few seconds and then Rikku breaks it. "Got anything to eat?"
"Go find Barkeep. He'll mix you something up." Braska replies smiling.
"Yeppers!" She says skipping out of the room and into the kitchen.
About 20 minuets after, Braska and Rikku were watching the S.V while Rikku was demolishing a full fish, chips, peas and gravy. From time to time she would say in a full mouth, "This is good!"
The phone started to ring and Barkeep answered. "Mish Yuna! What can I do for you?"
"Okey dokey shweet heart! Lord Brashka! Mish Yuna on the phone for you."
Braska got up from the sofa and goes to the phone.
"Hello Yuna. You okay?" Says Braska. Nobody replies but he can hear sobbing and cries from the other end of the line. "Yuna, honey are you okay?" This time he gets a reply.
"D-Daddy? C-Can you p-pick me u-up, ple-please?" Sobs Yuna.
"Of course. Where are you?"
"Down n-near Chichester R-road."
"Ok. I'll pick you up. Stay there." He hangs up and rushes to get his coat. He picks up his car keys and rushes to his car.
Why was she crying? Does it have something to do with Seymour? If it does im gunna have to apologize to his Father for killing him.
He drives down to Chichester Road and see's Yuna running towards the car. She gets in and Braska is horrified by what he see's. He knew it was Yuna who got into the car but it didn't look like her. This Yuna had 2 black eyes, both of them came to at least the middle of her cheeks. Her face had scratches and blood trickling down her chin and neck, Her hair was ruffed up, her eyes were puffed and red where she had been crying and her clothes that were once glamorous and new, now ripped and blood stained.
Braska stared at his daughter and Yuna just avoided his gaze. Finally he griped her shoulders and faces her towards his and he could only utter a single word. "Who?"
It took a while for her to calm down, but when she did she still said nothing. He repeats and he gets the same answer.
Another second passed and Braska was going 97mph down a 25mph road until he reached the nearest hospital.
Braska was impatiently pacing around the waiting room. It was 1 hour ago Yuna and the doctor went to talk and it was half an hour ago since Braska called Rikku.
Rikku then bursts through the door and searches for Braska. Braska waves and Rikku runs to him. As soon as she reaches him, "Who? What? When?"
"Yuna hasn't told me anything, I know as much as you do."
"That… That… argghhh! Im gunna kill him! Or her. Anyway, im gunna kill the asshole that done this!" Rikku shouts at the top of her voice. People from around the room gave her "Shooshes" to which she replies, "Oh fuck off!"
The doctor came from the room and approached Braska and Rikku.
"You are her Father I gather."
"Yes. Is she alright?"
"We'll get to that. If you and, who are you?" He asks Rikku
"Im Yuna's cousin."
"So you are family?"
"Well duh! What does the word "Cousin" mean to you?" Shouts Rikku a little impatiently.
"Ok miss. If you two would be so kind as to follow me. Please." He led Braska and Rikku into a room. The room was empty besides from a few chairs and empty beds. They were the only 3 in the room which made Rikku a bit edgy.
"Sir, we have a bit of a problem." Says the doctor
"Well of course we do. I can tell that just by looking at her." Braska replies. "What happened to her?"
"Well we ran some tests and asked her a few questions. It turns out sir, Your daughter has been raped. She wouldn't tell us by who, though."
There was silence. Rikku slowly sinks to the floor as if she had been punched in the stomach. Then she rises and asks, "Can I see her?"
"Of course. This way please…" Says the doctor but he is cut of.
"No, just tell me. If I can find my way there, getting her to tell me the fuckers name will be a piece of cake. Sorry unc., but I don't think she'll say anything in front of you."
Braska nods and the doctor gives directions to Rikku. She takes of at full speed down the hallway and finally ends up and room do12.
She goes into the room and see's Yuna sitting up right on the bed staring at the ceiling.
Rikku runs and throws her arms around her cousin and Yuna in return done the same.
There was a few tears shed and finally Rikku says, "Do you like the food here?"
"No, not really. Why do you ask?" Yuna asks slowly.
Rikku pulls away from the embrace and says, "Because if you don't tell me who did this to you, your gunna stay here, eating rotten food until you do."
Yuna sighs and then looks around the room. When she see's theres nobody but her and Rikku present she says, "Fine. Remember Seymour?" Rikku nods. "Well, me and him went to watch this film and we went back to his place because we were hungry and it was the closest. His parents weren't home so we started talking, then he started to get closer to me and then… it just went on from there." Yuna looks back up the ceiling and Rikku has her mouth wide open.
Rikku only paced around the room slowly and then bumped into the door. She fell on her back side and when people heard the bang, they started coming into the room to make sure she was okay. She nods and comes to a water machine, pours herself a cup and then tips the water over her hair, on her face and down her top. She then walks over to the bed Yuna was sitting on and plops herself on to the bed.
"What's going on?" Asks Braska. Rikku looks at Yuna and says, "Cruimt E damm res? Un tu oui fyhd du?" (Should I tell him? Or do you want to?)
"Oui damm res, bmayca." (You tell him, please.) Says Yuna, still looking at the ceiling.
"It was that blue haired bastard Seymour." Rikku says without hesitation.
Braska registers this quickly and runs out of the room. He quickly dials Jyscal Guado's number and waits for it to be answered.
"Hello?" Say Jyscal
"Hey. Can I talk to your son?" Braska replies.
"Sure, one second."
A few moments pass and there's a, "Hello?" By the unmistakable voice of Seymour.
"Listen here. I know what you did to my daughter, and I can tell you this for free that you are NOT going to get away with it." Braska says harshly down the into the phone.
"I don't know what you could possibly be talking about, Sir." Says Seymour in a cocky tone.
"Don't screw with me, kid! I don't care if your Father is a Maester, I will-"
"Your boring me now Sir. I will speak to you when I speak to you. By now, oh! And make sure your daughter gets better soon, don't want anything to happen to her again, do you?" Seymour laughs slightly and then cuts Braska off.
"Little prick." He says as he holds the phone to his head trying to figure out what to do.
He's going to strike again. He's going to hurt her again. Im not going to let it happen a second time. Thinks Braska.
He dials again and this time another voice comes from the phone. "Hello?"
"Auron? Hi, its me."
"Braska! What's been going on my old friend?" Says the unusually cheery voice of Auron.
"No time for a cosy catch up right now. Are you still doing all the stuff with the guard thing?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Someone is after Yuna. His name is Seymour Guado, and-" Braska is cut off.
"Seymour Guado?"
"Yeah, he's the Maesters son and-" He us cut of again by Auron.
"I know who he is." There's a silence and then, "So you want someone to go and guard little Yuna?"
"If you wouldn't mind. Anyone will do. I just want this man taken down."
"Hmmm. We've been after him for a while. I'll send our best over to you and-
"No. I want to pick a body guard out myself."
"Okay then, come down here about 9 am tomorrow and we'll take a look, alright?"
"Fine, see you then. Bye."
"Bye."
Braska hung up the phone and went into the room again to see that Yuna and Rikku were asleep. He chuckled a little and decided to let them sleep. He went and sat down on a nearby chair and slowly went to sleep.
