Prologue:
Bahamut listened intently, the new High Summoner was summoning him. It had been months since Sin and ultimately the final Aeon had been defeated. Unable to refuse the Aeon obeyed the summon and landed in the mortal realm at her request. Looking around Bahamut saw no fiends and the rest of the party was sleeping. They had planned the camping trip as a way of reliving their travels and exchanging stories. Yuna slowly caressed Bahamut's leg, he looked down to her, crossing his arms across his chest.
"What is it High Summoner Yuna?"
"Bahamut, you are an Aeon bound to my service since I asked for it. Do you enjoy being enslaved?"
"Why do you ask High Summoner?"
"Please Bahamut, just call me Yuna as my friends do. Each Aeon bound to my will is not just a servant to me, but an ally and friend. You are the closest I have come to know."
"As you wish.. Yuna. " Bahamut answered, ruffling his chromatic wings slowly.
"You still haven't answered my question."
"You left me to last. And my answer is the same as the others. It has been a pleasure to serve you, no matter how may times my corporeal form has been destroyed by fiends. My soul will eternally be grateful to serve you."
"Thanks... My friend." Yuna answered with a slight sigh. Bahamut watched closely, something was still bothering her. He got down on all fours and surrounded her with his entire body, nuzzling her slightly.
"Something is bothering you Yuna."
"I know. I just summoned you in hopes of inspiration to a solution to my problem. I did it with the others, covering it with that question."
"We can only serve if you ask." Bahamut whispered, knowing he didn't have to speak at his full. She scratched his forehead lightly. "You know we can only be happy if we serve fully."
"Just that Bahamut, there are somethings I can't or don't want to voice."
"Then what do you want? This will only be heard by myself. I promise.."
"Maybe another time Bahamut." Yuna replied stepping back. Bahamut looked disappointed and didn't get out of her way when she tried to leave. "What are you doing?"
"I refuse to let you leave until you let me serve you to my fullest." He answered, a low growl in his voice. Neither Bahamut or Yuna had chance to say another thing when Lulu's Blizzaga exploded against his side, sending Bahamut reeling in pain.
"Damn you Aeons.." Lulu growled, Yuna looked to see Lulu, Khimari and Tidus ready to fight. Bahamut stood to his full height, ignoring the wound on his side.
"Yuna are you alright?" Tidus asked, rushing up and glaring at Bahamut for a second.
"I'll be fine... Bahamut just needs to respect my wishes fully."
"I am only serving you as intended." He growled back, his arms crossed apart his chest, imposingly.
"And when I dismiss you I dismiss you.... You are no longer bound." Yuna shouted. Bahamut's arms dropped from his chest to his sides, his mouth handing open in surprise.
"H..High Summoner Yuna... Don't do this..."
"You are removed from the bindings of servitude."
"Please I ask your forgiveness." Bahamut apologized, kneeling down and averting his gaze from hers. "Please High Summoner, do not banish me."
"REMOVE YOURSELF FROM MY SIGHT NOW!" Yuna shouted, by now Wakka, Rikku and Auron had woken up and come over.
"What's going on?" Auron grumbled.
"Bahamut nearly attacked Yuna." Tidus explained.
"And now he his banished from my service." Yuna added.
"That means what?" Rikku asked.
"This part of him is imprisoned in a corporeal existence until he gets pardon from Yuna or another summoner or he dies. And dying after being banished is very tormenting to an Aeon." Lulu added.
"C'mon Yuna, he's apologizing."
"He shouldn't have to." She growled back.
"I am begging High Summoner. Do not do this. I beg of you." Bahamut pleaded.
"You're the part that served Braska aren't you?"
"Yes.." Bahamut started. "Each fragment is bound to one summoner family... Once more High Summoner Yuna I beg for your forgiveness. I am groveling."
"Never." Yuna answered.
"What does High Summoner Braska have to do with any of this?" Rikku asked.
"I acted out against her father on many ocassions, over disputes." Bahamut explained.
"Why'd you refuse her dismissal Bahamut?" Tidus asked.
"Do not answer that." Yuna commanded.
"I am freed from your service, unless you forgive me." Bahamut started.
"NEVER! You acted out against my father, injuring him and you nearly did with me."
"I acted out in your best interests, as I did with your father. Had it not been for that fight he woul've attempted a suicide quest. Which was averted by my being banished and being sought out."
"How can you determine her best interests Aeon?" Lulu inquired, without answering Bahamut stood up and turned on them facing the cliff.
"If I will not get forgiveness then I must return to a ground of familiarity, where I can pass on and return to the spirit realm."
"Bahamut, don't go man..." Wakka tried. "C'mon Yuna, you are going to lose a great friend, one who pulled us through a couple of times, before we unlocked our legendaries and allowed the other Aeons to do the same kind of damage."
"Not my problem anymore." She answered, breaking free of Tidus' grasp and storming back to the camp. Bahamut unfurled his wings and crouched, ready to take flight.
"Bahamut, before I interevened, would you have hurt your master?"
"No.." He answered, his voice low and curt, opposite to his high and royalistic voice. "I only injured her father to save himself and the party...." With that said Bahamut launched off of the cliffside and down towards the ocean, opening his wings and catching the updraft at the last second. His chromatic wings glinting in the full moon.
"BAHAMUT!" Auron cried. The dragon Aeon didn't heed the call, only gliding along, flapping his massive wings, momentarily. He could already feel the changes start to take place, he was becoming part fiend, his muscles exploded, tail getting longer, his legs arms and chest became twice as bulky. And to support this his wings increased in size and became darker shades.
Meanwhile back at the camp everyone slowly came from the cliff, to find Yuna by the fire, not weeping, not venting only silent. Everyone sat before talking. Which was a few minutes later.
"Yuna you gonna be alright?" Wakka inquired.
"I'll be fine. Bahamut won't stray far, he'll come back and then I will grant him his forgiveness. He won't severe his half of the binding."
"I think he has." Lulu corrected.
"WHAT!?!?!" Yuna shouted, bolting up. "If he does he'll become part fiend."
"His wings became darkly chromatic and his form became larger and more sinister. Now you are the one who will have to beg for the forgiveness. And knowing what he is capable of he will be a full fiend before we find him."
"Great..." Auron muttered.
"Well if we wait around we have less chance of catching up to him.." Rikku protested.
"We don't have the airship at the point in time." Tidus corrected.
"We'll wait until morning and then begin the hunt." Wakka announced.
"Just how dangerous can he become?" Tidus inquired.
"Worse than my father's final Aeon, worse then Anima itself." Lulu answered.
"Why did I deny him his forgiveness?" Yuna sobbed. "Because of me he will cause pain and anguish. I am tired of performing the sending. I don't want to do it anymore." She cried.
"Don't worry Yuna. He won't. He may become a fiend but he won't harm others." Rikku assured.
Everyone then silently went back to bed, before actually sleeping they talked, comforting the disturbed High Summoner. Within an hour Khimari fell asleep last. Everyone silent aside from their breathing or murmuring.
