New Places, New People!

Prologue.

It was a beautiful Saturday morning in Zanarkand. The sun was slowly rising, and the birds sang their songs. No cars rushing to work or school. This was the last Saturday before school started up again. On Monday another school year started.

On the highway exiting the city, only a couple of cars were driving. For one of the drivers it was a long road ahead. Not only for her, but also for the unborn child.

Chapter 1: 17 years later...

17 years, that's the last time she drove on this road. It was a Saturday, right before school started. The sun was rising out of the ocean. The sky was crimson and the ocean purple. This time she didn't hear any birds singing, all she heard, was her daughter whom where singing loudly from the backseat. "ALL BECAUSE OF YOUU!" her daughter was much better singer than herself, luckily. "Yuna!? We're her!" she told the girl. Yuna looked at her with her mismatched eyes. The emerald green and the ocean blue. No one had eyes like her child.

"Momma? Can I please meet my family now, since we are going to live in the same city and all?" Yuna spoke with her typical country accent, she never seemed to loose it, no matter where they lived. She nodded. "Of course, darling. We just gotta tell them about you first." She smiled, and hoped her daughter didn't get to upset. It became quiet in the backseat, but it didn't last long, because now they could see the view over Zanarkand. It was just like she remembered it, and just like she had told Yuna. The sun rising from the ocean, turning the sky flaming red. The city lights go out one by one; it was really a breathtaking site.

Tidus' POV.

Ah, man! What a night! He had woken up today, with to hot chicks by his side. Once again Tidus scored! "Sup, bro?" his twin brother Shuyin, came into his room, followed by Wakka and Gippal. He shrugged, he could brag at school, at basketball practise. He was, after all, The Star Player of Zanarkand High Basketball team. Tidus was the schools most popular boy, and he were also the biggest player. He could get any girl he wanted. "You should see the new girl moving in next to me and Auron! She's one fine little lady!"

Gippal announced loudly and smirked like he already slept with her. "Yeah!" the other two agreed. Auron were one of his friends, but he'd been sick with pneumonia for a while. He chuckled and shook his head, Gippal had a girlfriend; the feisty Al-behd girl Rikku Robinson. He doesn't understand why he's dating someone from high schools "lower class" but she was pretty damn hot. "Shuyin! Lenne's here!" their mom yelled from downstairs. "OK, just tell her to come to Tidus' room!" Shuyin yelled back. Lenne was Shuyin's girl. They waited a few seconds, before a tall brown haired girl stood in the doorway. "Hi, guys!" She was really good looking, and boy could she sing.

Yuna's POV:

She lifted up one of the boxes from the moving van. "GOD!" She almost dropped the box, before a tall, dark guy grabbed a hold of the box and her. "Here, let me help ya out." He took it gently from her grasp. She smiled gratefully at him. "Here, follow me" They walked up the stairs towards her apartment. The apartment building was in one of the poorest areas in Zanarkand, and it was a lot of crime here. Not that she was scared of a purse snatcher or a burglar. She was raised on a farm, but she used to hang out with her friends, who lived in the low town of Home. It was the biggest city on Bikanel. She came from Checotah, a small town a little outside Home. Were the road 69 meets 40.

"Just put it right there, thank you so much! I couldn't have done it myself." He shrugged and reached out his hand. "I'm Auron" She placed her tiny hand in his large one, and smiled back. "Nice to meet you, I'm Yuna" At least she knew the name of her neighbor; she'd seen him come out of the apartment next door. "You don't mind helping me with a few more boxes, do you? I could really need a hand, my momma ain't home..." He nodded and said he'd do it, that it was no problem at all. He was bored any way.

"That's the last of it." Auron had been a great help, she couldn't carried all of the boxes on her own. They'd only used one hour. "Thanks, it was really helpful. You want some water; it's the only thing we got right now. I mean, you gotta be thirsty after that?" She liked this guy; he weren't like every other guys she knew. He just nodded; he'd been kind of quiet all the time, just answered to the questions she asked. She handed him a glass with water, and took some herself. Now all she had to do left was unpack the boxes, and put the furniture into place. "Where's your mom? You said you lived with her." She looked away from the

window, which she'd been staring out of. She just couldn't take her eyes of Zanarkand. "Out job hunting, I guess." Her mom left early this morning to find herself a job. "You know it's a coffee shop downstairs?" She nodded, of course she knew. She was going to work there later. Her mom didn't have a college diploma, so she had to work as a shop clerk or a waitress. "I work there." Auron nodded understandingly and drank up.

"I better get going, a friend is picking me up to hang out, and check out girls at the mall. You know guy stuff." He grinned at her, and headed for the door. "Oh, and it as really nice meeting you, Yuna. You go to Zanarkand High, right?" He turned in the doorway. "Yeah, and it was really nice meeting you too." She walked up to the couch and leaned on to it. He waved and disappeared out the door. She walked around the apartment for a while, before realizing that there was only one bedroom! Where am I going to sleep?

Tidus' POV.

Auron had joined them to the mall; he wanted to check out chicks too. The only chick he'd seen over the past three weeks was his grandma. And his younger sister, but she's only 10 so she doesn't count. So far they'd seen only a couple of descent looking girls, but none really hot. Out of one of the shops, a woman came walking out. She was maybe 5"4 and she was defiantly a 10 on a scale from 1-10. His jaw fell open. She looked like she was somewhere mid 20's and she was blond. She looked kind of Al-behd, cause she had the same oval face as Rikku. She wore tight jeans and a plain brown tank top. He kept looking at her, before he heard someone next to him yell; "Hey, Carrie?"

Lenne stood up from the place she was sitting. The women he'd been staring turned towards them and smiled. She came over, and started talking to Lenne. "Lenne, look at you! It must have been when you and Yuna ended freshman year I saw you last?" Lenne must have known this Yuna girl, maybe the lady's younger sister. Maybe from where she used to live, on Bikanel or something. "Yeah, how's Yuna. I hope she grew up alright. I haven't talked with her since, oh I don't know, a year?" They seemed to be talking about not so interesting things, so he blocked their conversation out. He stared at other girls instead.

"So; Lenne? Who was that, ya?" Wakka spoke up after the lady had gone. Tidus didn't care anymore, she suddenly seem way too old for him. "Oh, Carrie Sawyer, she's my best friend's mom." Wow, rewind. She's a mom? With a kid just as old as them? Man, he wouldn't guess she was maybe past 40. Lenne must have understood what he was thinking, cause she said: "She was 16 when she had Yuna. She's real young. And you guys thought she was hot right?" She smirked and looked at him in general. Everybody laughed. "What!?" They stopped, but they smiled like a bunch of idiots.

"Hey, Auron? Are you sure your grandma isn't home?" Rikku, who met up with them at the mall, decided they have a party. And Auron said that no one was home at his place, and that they didn't come home until tomorrow afternoon. "For the millionth time, yes I'm sure." Auron had gotten kind of annoyed, just like the rest of us. She shut up, because she knew Auron wasn't funny to be around when he was mad.

He smiled when he saw a girl, just down the hall, coming out of an apartment. "Hey!" He called for her. She turned around, looking kind of surprised. "Oh, Hey" She flashed them all a breathtaking smile. "Do you need help with anything; are there some heavy boxes we forgot earlier?" Wow, is Auron flirting with this girl, she looked so little, maybe she was 15 or maybe 16.

She chuckled and spoke back: "No more boxes, but I just wonder, is there just one bedroom here, or is those stairs up to another room?" She smiled a little and a small blush snaked its way up on her cheeks. "That's the second bedroom, yeah."

He looked like he really liked her, but that couldn't be possible. Auron never liked girls; he just slept with random girls at parties, just like himself. "Oh, well now it all makes sense!" She didn't seem like the smartest person in the world, but she was really cute. Wow, cute? He thought someone was cute?! That can't be right. Whatever, he was going to get her in bed.

"Alright, we got the alcohol, and some snacks. Let's get this party started!" Lenne and Shuyin came jogging down the hall. Lenne stopped dead in her tracks, when she saw the girl a little further down the hall. "That's our new neighbor. Is she hot or what?" Gippal whispered in his ear. He nodded, and looked at Lenne and this new girl. They both stood mouth open in shock. Lenne was the first to move.

"YUNA!" "LENNE!" Both girls ran towards each other and hugged, you know the kind of hug sisters who haven't seen each other for years. They stood there, hugging and squealing and talking so fast, and in the mouth of each other. He couldn't make out a word of what they were saying, but they seemed understand. "Yuna, you gotta meet my friends!"

Lenne started dragging Yuna down the hall, headed straight for them. "Yuna, this is Shuyin, Gippal, Rikku, Wakka, you've already met Auron and of course Tidus." She gestured for everyone as she said their name. She said mine at last, like I was the most important. But then again I am the most important. "And everyone, this is Yuna. She's my best friend in the whole wide world." She looked at Yuna and they smiled a secretly smile and giggled slightly.

Rikku looked like she was about to cry or something. "B-but Lenne? I thought I was your best friend in the whole wide world." Everybody looked at Rikku and saw the big frown on her face. "Rikku, you come second. Yuna and I have done everything together. The first time I drank, Yuna was there. The first time I had my heart broken, Yuna was there. She's been with me through it all. We've known each other since we were toddlers."

Yuna looked at us and smiled that breathtaking smile again. Rikku seemed to be pleased, but I don't think she liked being second. "She wasn't there first time you had sex, and told you it would be better next time."

Typical Rikku, she has to be first. Lenne looked at her and nodded. "She were, everything that have been my first time, Yuna have been there, comforting me after. And I've been there through all her first times, or maybe not everything. Or what do you say; Yuna? Any action in that area yet?" Yuna blushed and looked down at the floor. She became real quiet.

Lenne shut up, and looked at Yuna, worried she might have said something to upset her. Yuna looked up from the floor and smiled. Ignoring what Lenne had said and said: "Hey Rikku, don't be sad about it. You are still one of her best friends." Yuna seemed to know how to cheer people up, because Rikku lit up like a candle and said to her: "Yeah! And now we can all be friends! Yunie, you've gotta come to our party! I insist!"

Rikku placed her tiny arms around both girls' necks. Yuna looked a little sad again "I can't, gotta work. But I'll be right downstairs, and I go off again at 1 a.m. If you're still partying, I'll stop by then." Rikku stopped smiling when Yuna started talking, but when she was done Rikku was grinning like a little kid, just getting a lollipop. "Yaay! Can't wait, now hurry of to work, and hurry back later!" Rikku pushed her down the hall, towards the stairs. "Alright. Now don't party too hard." She waved and walked downstairs.

Yuna's POV.

23.30, still a time until, I can go and party. It was not a single customer. Everybody went upstairs to the party. She heard the music through the ceiling. They were playing "I kissed A Girl" with Katy Perry. She sang along, while she cleaned cups. "I kissed a girl, and I liked it, taste of her cherry chopstick. I kissed a girl just to try it, hope my boyfriend don't mind it! It felt so wrong, it felt so right, don't mean I'm in love tonight. I kissed a girl and I liked it!"

She kept singing and didn't hear the door open and that someone came in. "ding" She jumped by the sound and turned around blushing madly. "Hey, don't stop just because I'm here." Shuyin, and a really drunk Lenne sat by the counter.

She smiled, and filled two cups with coffee. "It's on me. Looks like she'll need it." She nodded to Lenne, who was leaning her forehead on the counter. Shuyin laughed out loud. He nodded. He looked at her lovingly; maybe he had a crush on her.

"I remember the first time I saw Lenne, I was captured by her outstandingly beauty and grace. She was a real whore to begin with. It's like she slept with everybody. She was a lot like Auron and Tidus, just female. Well I brought courage to myself and asked her out, and well she said yes. And now 10 months later, here we are. In a café, both drunk, but she's drunker than me. Maybe I should get her home. I'll talk to later. See you, Monday?"

He smiled at her and put his arms around Lenne's waist. She nodded and went to open the door for them. "Goodnight, bring her safely home!" He gave her a wave before disappearing round the corner. Oh boy she wanted a boyfriend right now, someone to take care of her and love her. No, don't think like that Yuna, it'll only make you depressed.

1 a.m. She locked the café and walked to the backdoor. She sighed and turned off the lights. Upstairs the music was beaming from Auron's place, now it was "Low."With Flo Rida and T-pain. She remembered that song so well, Lenne and she had made a cheerleading routine for it. They even brought it to high school, because of that routine; she'd been chosen by the other girls to be head cheerleader. She laughed a little to herself thinking what a brain dead sport it was.

She took a deep breath and slowly opened the door. The sight she saw when she came in was shocking. People everywhere and cups and bottles all over the floor. It was nasty. Not like the parties in Checotah, or Home for that matter. Here everybody was dancing dirty and everyone was drinking. In Checotah people drank a little and danced a little, but not to this level. "Yunie!! Over here!"

Rikku, the blond tiny girl from earlier called out from the other side of the room. She started making her way through the dancing mass. "Hey there Sweet Thang!" Some tall black haired guy, yelled in her ear. She just looked at him before, pushing herself through the crowd. "Hey Rikku. This is really a party, huh?" She smiled goofily at her. "Yeup, Zanarkand style, Baby!" Rikku handed her a Smirnoff, and smiled. She accepted it with a smile, now the party can begin!

Two hours later she found herself dancing on top of a table with Rikku and some other girls, she weren't as drunk as the other girls here, and she still knew her limits. She wouldn't drink anymore tonight. "This is The awesomest party this year!" She told Rikku when they had fallen down from the table. Suddenly the music stopped. "Alright, kids! Party's over!"

Two rather large police officers, stood in the middle of the floor, right behind her back. Rikku looked like she was going to die. She probably didn't look any better. People started running out of the apartment. The police officers grabbed a hold on Rikku and herself, well she couldn't run now, that's for sure. "Who lives here?" The police officer whom held her called. Auron slowly came out from a small group, holding his hands up.

The police officers had arrested her, Gippal, Rikku and Auron. Right now they were sitting on the cell, all waiting for someone to come and pay their bails. "Alright, Mr. Thomson, you can go. Someone bailed you out of here." Gippal leaned over and kissed Rikku, before leaving. "Sorry, guys." He said through the bars. They all nodded at him. "Well, looks like you're next Miss. Robinson." Rikku stood up and looked at the two of them and gave them the thumbs up.

30 minutes later she was alone, in a cell. She started humming on some songs, but couldn't keep it up for long. She started drawing on the walls with a pen she found on the bed. Prison is hard. Nothing to do, so boring. She'd go crazy in the next 20 minutes, she just knew that. Last time she was in a cell, she'd been caught sneaking in to school in the middle of the night, drunk of course. It was with Lenne, just like every time she'd done something like that. 'Oh, please don't take a trip down memory lane now.' "Hey, I heard you were still here."

Shuyin stood by the bars, looking at her. She sighed and stood up from the bed. "The others are still waiting, for you to come out. Rikku is almost crying, and Auron feels really bad. I heard you came to Zanarkand today. And already in jail, pretty good." he chuckled a little, before continuing: "I'm here to bail you oughta here. So let's get moving." He gestured for the police officer to open the bars. "Now it was your turn Miss. Sawyer." She smiled at them both and said: "If I'd been in there for one more second, I would have lost it!" They laughed and they walked out to the others.

Chapter 1 ended.
