The End
Chapter One:

Yuna moved back as a series of explosions shook the remains of Vegnagun. She dived off the platform onto the one below as the huge machina began to crumble and fall apart.

Looking up from where she landed, Yuna saw her companions Rikku and Paine a short distance behind her, behind them crouched Nooj, Gippal and Leblance. The fight with Vegnagun had clearly taken its toll on them, as it had done on Yuna and her companions.

"Is it over?" Rikku asked from where she was sat.

"Where's Shuyin?" Yuna asked in response as she got back to her feet.

She slowly began to make her way towards the remains of Vegnagun. "I have to talk to him, to tell him how Lenne felt."

"Yunnie? Do you think that's safe?" Rikku asked as she too got to her feet and ran to Yuna's side.

Yuna only nodded as she took out a glowing sphere from her belt pouch. Holding it against her chest, with both hands clasped over it. She was engulfed in a white light, when the light subsided. Her clothing had changed into that of a songstress.

"Do what you feel you have to do Yuna, but be careful. You have no idea how Shuyin may react." Nooj said as he too got back to his feet, with a little help from Gippal.

"I know in my heart that I have to do this. It is what Lenne wants." Yuna said as she began to move closer towards the platform where they had fought Vengagun just moments before.

After taking just a few steps forward, she saw a golden light on the platform ahead. As she got closer she saw the light was coming from Shuyin.

"Shuyin." Yuna said gently, he was obviously still disorientated from their previous battle.

"Lenne?" He asked as he placed one hand against his head. "There's something I must tell you. Words left unspoken, for a thousand years." Yuna said as her eyes drifted downwards and she saw Baralai, lying unconscious, a short distance away from Shuyin. "I love you."

She heard movement from behind her and realised that Rikku, Paine and the others must be preparing for a fight if this didn't work, but now she had his attention she couldn't stop.

"And I'm grateful, grateful that you stayed with me until the end."

"But I couldn't save you." Shuyin replied, looking at Yuna, his eyes remained unfocused.

"It doesn't matter. Please, don't go on grieving alone. Rest Shuyin."

"We can finally fade, together?" He asked, moving closer to her. Before Yuna could respond his eyes widened in shock. "No, you are not Lenne."

"Wait..." Yuna began but was cut off when an invisible force struck her, propelling her backwards onto the platform where her companions were.

"Yunnie!"

"Yuna!"

Rikku and Paine both yelled when she landed hard on the platform, they both rushed to aid her.

"I will ease Spira's despair, but first I will ease yours." Shuyin said with anger etched onto his face.

"You just don't get it do you." Rikku said angrily as she prepared to defend herself.

"Something tells me his not listening." Paine responded as she too made herself ready for a fight.

"We must stop him." Nooj said as he took a place beside Paine, a pistol held firmly in his hand. "Are you in?" He asked Gippal, who had taken a position beside Rikku, his machina weapon ready to attack.

"Someone has to make sure you three don't get yourself killed." Gippal responded.

"Vanish with the rest of Spira." Shuyin called out as he jumped into the air, holding his sword high, energy began to gather and dance along the blade of his sword.

As he began to descend towards the platform below, he pulled the blade in front of him and the gathered energy shot fourth from the blade. Striking the gathered companions on the platform below.

As Shuyin landed on the platform, the others fell to their knees, the last attack leaving them all but spent.

"Shuyin, please.... You must stop this." Yuna pleaded as she slowly began to get back to her feet.

Be strong Yuna,, he is coming.

Yuna wasn't surprised to hear her fathers words inside her mind, after all he had been giving her advice through the entire titanic struggle with Vegnagun, what surprised her was what her father said.

As Shuyin prepared to attack again, several Pyreflies began to appear. First just a couple, but gradually more and more of the glowing multicoloured spheres of energy appeared.

Their appearance distracted Shuyin, who lowered his weapon. "What is happening?" He demanded.

The Pyreflies continued to swirl around the platform, however a few seemed to move away from the others and swirl around each other close to where Yuna now stood.

The outline of someone became visible, becoming more and more solid as each Pyreflie passed through it.

Yuna stared in shock as the Pyreflies departed, their job obviously finished.

"Its him." She heard Rikku whisper from somewhere close by.

"Tidus?" Yuna whispered softly.
