AN: So it's been a while since I have written anything, or even been on this site. So pardon me if this sucks, but it's been a while. Lol

"We did it!" Yuna exclaimed as they saw Sin explode into millions of Pyreflies.

As everyone was still standing there in shock Tidus looked at his hands. He could see through them. He knew what he had to do, he knew he couldn't stay. He slipped away from everyone else and fell into the Pyreflies. Slowly he started to realize he was falling toward water, the water that surrounded Zanarkand!

"Huh?" Was the only thing to go through his mind before he hit the water. The water was cold, almost as cold as ice. Struggling to get back to the top, his thoughts were going crazy. How could he be back? Was he still just a dream? Did he just dream all of that about Yuna, Rikku, LuLu and Wakka? Was any of it real?

"Tidus!" Someone yelled, he turned to try and find where the voice was coming from. It was Carly. But she was from his time, in his Zanarkand. How could he be back? Why was he back? Would he ever see Yuna again?

"Carly!" Tidus called to her. He started swimming in her direction but it was hard. The water was just so cold.

"Oh my god!" Carly yelled as she dove in and got to him almost instantly. "Are you ok? I've been so worried! After the Arena malfunctioned you were thrown and we've been looking for hours." She threw her arms around him, hugging him tightly. He had missed her. He took in her scent, the softness of her skin, the color of her hair, he took it all in. He was so sure he would never see her again.

"How have you been?" Tidus asked as they started to swim to shore.

"I'm the same as I was two hours ago when you asked me before the game, worried about you!"

"Two hours?" He was lost. He had been with Yuna for over two months, but to her it was two hours? How could that be, and would she believe him if he told her about his journey with the others?

"Did you hit your head? Yea it's been two hours, silly. Oh, your game was rescheduled by the way it's this weekend." Carly said helping him out of the water. "Are you going to be able to play?"

"Yea, why wouldn't I?" He was completely lost. He was happy to be home but he wanted to be sharing this with Yuna like he promised he would.

"You just seem to be a little off is all. Ok well here you are, home sweet home." She smiled and then hugged him. "Call me later OK?"

"Yea sure." Tidus said walking toward his front door. How did this happen? Why hadn't Sin attacked yet? Wasn't today the day he went to the future? Had they somehow changed the past too? This was all getting too weird.

Tidus walked to his front door and opened it. When he walked into his house, it was all the same as when he had left for the game. Nothing was out of place, nothing missing, it was all there. The dirty dishes he had been too lazy to throw in the dishwasher, the clothes on the floor, even the sandwich from two days earlier. It was all there. Could all of this really be happening?

He sat down on the couch just in time for someone to knock on the door.

"Who is it?" He yelled.

"Yo! Open up, its Kyle!"

"Come on in, it's open." Kyle was one of the guys on his Blitz team. Could he really be back? Could it all really be the same as when he left? Kyle came in wearing his uniform for their team. The Abes symbol in the center of his chest stood out from the rest of the outfit.

"Dude, you had us all worried. Carly was going crazy with worry."

"Yea I know, she's the one that pulled me out of the river."

"Oh man, how far did you go?"

"From the Arena to about two hundred feet from my front door. So pretty far."

"Damn, are you ok? Did you get hurt when you fell? Cause I don't wanna be mean dude, but the game is this weekend and we need ya."

"I'll be there, I promise." Tidus said when he realized he was sitting on something. He reached under him and pulled out what he was sitting on. It was one of the spheres! Proof he had been to the future, and that Yuna hadn't been just a dream! "But, I have some stuff to take care of. So, I'll talk to you later?"

"Yea, call me if you need anything bro, and I mean anything." Kyle said as he walked toward the front door.

When he was alone again he played the sphere. It was the sphere Jecht had recorded for him. So much for being able to see Yuna again. He threw the sphere across the room in anger. How could that be the one he has on him? Why couldn't it be one with her in it? He wanted to see her again, to know she was real and not just a dream. He sat down and shut his eyes just in time for his door to be flung open. Tidus jumped to his feet pulling his sword from his side, and readied himself for combat.

When he looked up to see who it was, his jaw dropped. It was…his dad?!? But wasn't Jecht dead? Hadn't they killed him when they killed Sin? Was he back from the future too? Were they here to stay or would they disappear again?

"Good job kid!" Jecht said throwing his arms around Tidus. "You made me proud! You did what you had to do even if it meant I would die. And most importantly, you brought us home."

"But…how? How are we back? Why are we back?"

"I don't know kid. But I sure as hell aint gonna wait around to find out. I'm gonna go out and enjoy my time while it lasts. You should go out with Carly and enjoy your time too."

"How did you know about Carly?"

"Did you think I came back here just to bring you to the future last time?" Jecht asked laughing. "I was watchin you like a hawk to see if I thought I could count on you to do right by me. When I saw you and Carly, I knew you would. Breaking that pretty girls heart had to be hard."

"That's none of your business!" Tidus snarled.

"No, but it was crucial in deciding if you were man enough for the task or not. That took a lot of guts to do kid. And you mastered it."

"Yea, well anyway, I don't want to go out with her. I just can't stop thinking about Yuna." He looked down at the floor and balled his fists. "I want to go back to her. I want to go back now."

"You and Yuna had a thing did ya?" Jecht said laughing.

"Yea, yea we did. More powerful than anything I've ever felt, too."

"Well maybe you'll see her again. But don't count on it."

Tidus rolled his eyes and walked away from his father. What did he know? If he could go into the future, could he pull people from the future into the past? Would she even be the same since history rewrote itself? Would he even want to know her anymore? He had to try, something, anything to see her again. That's when he realized that Carly was a witch! Maybe she could send him into the future! He grabbed his phone and dialed her number.

"Carly here, whatcha need?"

"Carly, its Tidus, I need a favor."

"Sure thing hun, what can I do for you?"

"Can you send things into the future? Or pull things into the past?"

"It all depends on what you are trying to move." Carly said with a hint of worry in her voice. "What do you want to do?"

"I don't think you will believe me, but I wasn't gone for just two hours. I was gone for over two months. I went into the future, a thousand years into the future."

"Well you want to go back do ya?"

"Yea, I do. You can come too if you would like."

"I would love to. But I am not sure if I can do a thousand."

"Try? For me?"

"Sure thing, when do you want to do this?"

"As soon as possible!"

"I'll be over in a few. Get ready for me."

"Sure thing!" Tidus said as he hung up the phone. He grabbed the sword Wakka had given him and the Sphere Jecht had recorded and stood in the living room.

It felt like years were going by instead of minutes. Carly was taking far too long. His heart was racing; he couldn't think straight, he was excited to see her. He wanted to hold her one more time, see her, talk to her, all of it, any of it. Then Carly knocked on the door and he nearly jumped out of his skin.

"C-come in." Tidus called.

"Hey got here as fast as I could." Carly said walking in with a smile.

"OK that's good!"

"So are you ready to give this a shot?" Carly looked a little scared

"More than you would ever know."

"OK then get ready to give this a hell of a shot." Carly pulled crystals out of her bag and a few candles. "OK you need to imagine where you want to be and when you want to be there, like time of day and all of that."

" Gotcha!"

"Ready?" Carly glanced up at him long enough to see him nod his head. "OK then take my hands.

She then started to chant something under her breath that Tidus couldn't understand. It confused him for a split second and then all he could think about was the day he met Yuna and how his world changed. Her smile, her eyes, her kind nature and soft voice. He remembered how much he loved her and at that moment he felt the breeze blow through his hair and birds over head.

"Hey watch out brudda!" Tidus recognized the voice immediately as Wakka's. Tidus caught the Blitzball before it hit Carly in the head.

"Hey Wakka! How are you?" Tidus said throwing the Blitz ball back.

"Not bad, but do I know ya? Ya don't look like anyone I know."

That's when it hit him. If the past was different so was the future. Now that he paid attention, Wakka was different too. He had on Khaki shorts and no shirt, he had on sandals that looked like they were brand new as well.

"It's me, Tidus." He was frantic to get Wakka to remember him. "We all took Yuna on her Pilgrimage, remember?"

"Nah brudda, who is Yuna? You talkin about Braskas lil girl?"

"Yea, that's who I'm talking about. Braskas daughter Yuna."

"Man that girl is eight years old, what would she, or anyone else be goin on a Pilgrimage for?"

"Wait, you said Yuna is eight?" He felt so stupid. This was one of the memories Yuna had recorded. Today was the last day she had seen her dad before he went out on Pilgrimage. But if Wakka didn't know why someone would go on a Pilgrimage did that mean that Sin had been destroyed and that they would never actually meet?

"Yea man. Her dad is bein made Maester tomorrow morning. Shes about to be one rich little daddy's girl. Don't think shes gonna be givin you the time of day."

"Wait so Sin doesn't exsist?"

"Sin? Whats Sin?"

That was it, they had destroyed the Sin from a thousand years ago that had come to get him from Zanarkand and not the Sin that was here terrorizing this time. That meant that Yuna wouldn't be coming here, she wouldn't be going to try and defeat Sin, and that they would never meet. It would also change who se was, and would he want to know that Yuna?

"Hey Brudda, ya lookin hungry, wanna tag a long back to da Village and I get ya something ta eat?" Wakka was still Wakka though. He was still inviting strangers into his home. He was still being too nice to people who might not have deserved it.

AN: So that's the end of chapter one. More to come, so review this and let me know what you think! Much thanks!
