Final Fantasy X-3
Hey, there! Long time no see. It's Yuna. How have you been? Things here are wonderful in Besaid and the rest of Spira. As you well know, Tidus is back again! I'm as happy as ever. We live together on Besaid along with Wakka, Lulu, Vidina and Rikku. Rikku decided to live here on Besaid with us since she doesn't really like the idea too much of living with Uncle Cid. Guess what though! She's been teaching me Al Bhed. E lyh cbayg Al Bhed! Which means: I can speak Al Bhed. Oh, incase you were wondering about Paine... well I am too actually. You see, after the welcome back party that night four months back she just left without saying a word. It's really strange. Well anyway, Spira is finally at peace and I can finally live my life not as a summoner, not as a sphere hunter, but as a normal person.
CHAPTER I
The rising sun greeted the Besaid village. Yuna lays asleep in her and Tidus's tent. As she sleeps peacefully she begins to drift slowly into the dream realm. Everything was black, she could see nothing, but she could hear a waterfall in the background.
You must stop him.
"Who's there?" Everything was still black. "I can't see anything!" A few pyreflies illuminated a small area. Yuna could see pastel colored blue and purple flowers swaying back and forth in the gentle wind. A small figure appeared in the center of where the pyreflies circled. Its face was covered by a red hood. "A fayth?" Yuna wondered.
Please stop him…
Yuna was confused. "What do you mean?"
He is becoming stronger by each passing moment. And he has captured him...
"Fyga ib!" (Wake up!) Rikku's chipper voice caused the Fayth to disappear and Yuna woke up. Rikku was sitting on the edge of her bed pointing at the clock. "Yunie, what are you still doing in bed? We gotta get ready to go soon!"
The thoughts of her dream tuned Rikku's voice out.
"Yunie!"
"W-What? I'm sorry, Rikku."
"Yunie, the boat leaves in forty-five minutes and you're still in bed! C'mon get showered and packed. I gotta go help Lulu." Rikku sprung up from the bed and rushed out of the tent.
Oh, that's right! We're going to Luca today for the Blitzball tournament. Wakka, Tidus, and the rest of the Besaid Aurochs left two weeks ago to practice there. I know what you're thinking… Wakka said he quit Blitzball but now that everything is back to normal he said that he is going to do it again and when Vidina is older he is qoing to teach him how to Blitz!
"Yuna was still asleep?" asked Lulu as she packed Vidina's clothes into a suitcase.
"Yup. Took me awhile to get her to wake up too," said Rikku.
Lulu was puzzled. "That's strange. That's not like her at all. Maybe she's not feeling well."
"Maybe," Rikku nodded. "She was sleeping quietly too, usually she's snoring up a storm!"
Lulu smirked.
"Let me take the suitcase outside to the cart."
She handed it to Rikku. "Thank you. Are all your things packed?"
Rikku nodded as she took the suitcase and then she took it outside.
Lulu walked over to Vidina's crib and picked him up and cradeled him. He burped and giggled.
Rikku placed Vidina's suitcase on the cart and then she tried to push it but it wouldn't budge. She shook her head. "There is no way I'll be able to move this to the beach."
"Perhaps Kimarhi could do it."
Rikku turned around suprised to see a familiar Ronso standing there. "Kimarhi!" She jumped to him and hugged him. "I've missed you!'
"Kimarhi miss Rikku too."
Lulu walked out of her tent holding Vidina, smiling. "Ah, I thought that voice sounded familiar. How have you been, Kimarhi?"
"Kimarhi well. Very cute baby, Lulu."
Rikku chimed in, "Well, I'm gonna go check on Yunie while you two catch up."
"All right, please tell her to hurry up though, we have to head to the beach very soon."
Rikku entered Yuna's tent looking around her. "Yunie?"
Yuna's voice in the other room answered back, "I'm in here Rikku. I'm just getting dressed."
"You all packed and stuff?"
"Oac." (Yes.)
"Oh, Yunie! You'll never guess who's here!"
"Hm? Who?"
"Kimarhi!"
"Oh, really? What's he doing here?" Yuna asked as she emerged from the room carrying her luggage.
She and Rikku walked out of the tent together and Rikku replied to her question, "I dunno."
Outside Yuna looked across the village and saw Kimarhi with Lulu. Lulu was waving. Yuna's different colored eyes twinkled and she dropped her luggage and ran straight into Kimarhi's arms. "Kimarhi it's been too long!"
"Kimarhi glad to see Yuna again. Kimarhi miss seeing Yuna on Mt. Gagazet."
Rikku limped over to the group dragging Yuna's luggage, whimpering jokingly. "Uf, so vuud." (Ow, my foot.)
Yuna giggled. "Sorry, Rikku."
Kimarhi grabbed the last suitcase and placed it on the cart. "Is everyone ready?"
"Kimarhi are you coming with us to Luca?" asked Rikku joyfully.
Kimarhi nodded.
"Yay!"
They said goodbye to the village and began making their way to the Besaid beach. As they crossed the bridge next to the waterfall Yuna stopped in her tracks. The waterfall made her think of her dream. She leaned forward against the wooden railing and looking down at the water crashing on the rocks below, hoping to see the Fayth there.
Lulu gave Vidina to Rikku when she noticed Yuna was back at the bridge. She walked over to Yuna who was still looking over the railing. "Yuna?"
Yuna turned around to her seeming disappointed.
"What's wrong?"
Yuna glanced back over at the waterfall for a second then back at Lulu and told her un-convincingly, "Nothing."
Lulu crossed her arms and said, "Yuna, you can fool someone you just met, but not me. I've known you too long." She paused. "Now tell me what's wrong," she said gently.
Yuna shook her head. "It's nothing, I promise."
Lulu sighed, "Ok. Well, come on then. Rikku and Kimarhi are probably waiting for us at the beach." She took Yuna's hand and they walked to the beach.
At the beach, Rikku was jumping up and down waving her arms above her head. When Lulu and Yuna approached her, out of breath she said, "Vehymmo, the boat is just about ready to go!" (Finally).
"Yuna just got a little nervous." Lulu looked at Rikku's empty arms, "Where's Vidina?"
"He's with Kimarhi on the boat. He wanted to hold him."
Lulu walked onto the boat.
"Yunie, are you still nervous?"
"No, I'm fine, let's go to Luca!"
I can never fool Lulu. She knows I didn't tell her the truth. I guess she just said I was nervous so Rikku wouldn't ask any questions.
