Disclaimer: I WISH I owned the world of Final Fantasy X. But I don't *BUUHUU!!* Squaresoft does.

WARNING: SPOILERS for the ending!!

A/n: Okay, so the Evil Plot-bunny has struck again!! So I finished the game yesterday (020915) and I cried and cried, first when Auron (Her favorite character since Sephirot from FF7) yeah, yeah, Died and then when Tidus ceased to exist..? in that Spira... he came to the Fareplane though ^_^. Me a little bit happier... *sniff* so I figured I would write a story in Tidus' POV with him reflecting over Auron leaving them...

Anyway enjoy.

***********************************************************************

I watch Yuna start her dancing.

God she is so beautiful. I've seen her dance this dance three times now. She is performing the Sending with such grace.

The first time I saw her dance was in Kilika after Sin had attacked, she danced to send the dead to the Fareplane, to ease the suffering of Spira, a world she was willing to sacrifice her life to save. I didn't know that then though. The second time I saw her dance this dance was just a couple of hours ago, when she sent Seymour. I hated that bastard so it felt really good to see him finally go...

We have beat Yu Yevon and destroyed him. We have killed my father... And now Yuna's dancing.

We can see the Aeon's shimmer and disappear, they have done enough I know that and soon they will stop dreaming and that means... I don't want to think about that.

We all watch her for a while until we hear someone gasp and Yuna stop. We all turn to where she's staring.

Auron. H-he's being sent!? God no! I-I don't want to see him go too! I stare at him as he commands Yuna not to stop, he walks forward and pause for a moment by me. I try to say something but he cut me short by softly utter, "It's been long enough." His voice sounds so tired as if he's been waiting for this for a long time. God I don't want to see him go... I know that he is an Unsent but...

He continue past me,(a/n Auron's totally funky Theme playing in the background ^_^) pyre-flies flying off of him even more now. He's leaving me! My... true father is leaving me. I can see that he's happy and relieved inside, I know him that much at least...

He continue past Yuna and raise his sword and rest it on his shoulder as he does in battle, I can feel tears prickle at the corners of my eyes. Pyre- flies flying all around whispering softly their happy release. He has his back turned to us and Yuna starts her dance again, moving gracefully in circles around the stadium platform of my old man's Zanarkand.

I'm sure I can hear him whisper, "I'm finally coming, Jecht, Braska. It's done." God, does he know how much that hurts..? But then again I will soon join them... My mentor, Braska, My old man... I will soon disappear. I don't want that to happen... I want to stay here on Spira with Yuna.

But that I can't.

A bright light shine up now and I turn from Yuna and see Auron's body disperse in a million bright pyre-flies. That's simply... beautiful. Believe it or not, but Auron's leaving this world is beautiful.

Don't worry... I will join you soon. I'll just have to say goodbye first.

Wait for me.

~Owari~

Oki... I'll kill that Goddamn Evil Plot-bunny!!! O_o I'm just gonna go cry first. *Leaves sniffling heavily*

(Well as Blue-chan's still alive *Looks around to see if the Ghost of Yunalesca is around* and her old silly self, she will leave ME, Evil Inner Voice, to do the after word... Anyway, I'm sure she hopes you all enjoyed the short story and feel motivated to Please Review, and to Please read her OTHER stories as well ^_~ Goodbye for now.)
