Rikku's POV
I cannot believe that I just did that! I was no longer just walking down the hall I was full on running and pushing people down to get away. From what I do not know but I felt it was necessary so I just kept running. All of a sudden, an arm shot out and knocked me over.
"Watch it jerk!" I yelled to the person who knocked me over
"Going somewhere shorty?" Tidus laughed
"As a matter of fact I am" I scoffed
"Well why don't you take me" He said in a very cheesy deep voice
"As if you're only good for staring at Yuna," I said as I got up and started walking away
"I'll tell Auron," he said menacingly. That measly threat stopped me dead in my tracks.
"Fine, you can come but no questions asked," I stated hollowly and dryly to him.
"You're scared of him aren't you" He teased me. I rolled my eyes and started walking again. He ran to catch up with me while whistling in that annoying I win way. I think we walked almost 5 miles before I turned on him
"I swear to Yevon! If you don't stop that annoying whistling I will make you stop!" I started walking towards him with my godhand on.
"Whoa you don't want to do this," He said with his hands up.
"Oh but don't I? I growled at him "I didn't want you coming so I suggest you better stay out of my way!" He nodded and backed off. About sunset, I started feeling bad about that so I turned around to apologize but he was gone.
"Tidus? Where are you? I started shaking. It was really, cold here and my outfit is not exactly the best for keeping warm. That was when everything started going downhill…
I heard a growl and whirled around, godhand already on. There were six of them, no wait 7, 8, 9… Let us just say there were too many of them for one Rikku. I got three when one snuck up from the back and bit down on my shoulder, hard. I yelped in pain swatting like a lunatic to try to get it off. When I finally did, two were slowly approaching me on each side...
"Well Rikku your screwed" Great, now I am talking to my self… I raised my god hand and closed my eyes ready to go down with a fight when I heard one, two, three squeals. I looked and sighed in relief when I saw Auron going all ninja on the fiends when I heard
"Rikku look out!" I turned around quick enough to have my arm bitten and latched on to by another fiend. I raised my hand and got it square in the head plus… I got dark sphere off it! I helped Auron finish off the rest when I sunk down against the side of a cliff.
"Rikku... are you ok? Those are some pretty nasty bites." He looked at me with these knowing eyes. He came over to me and threw the one healing spell he knew on me. I looked up at him and then quickly looked away… embarrassed. He took off his coat and wrapped it around me then proceeds to sit down next to me and pull me close.
"Auron… what are you"
"Shhhh I can tell you're cold, sore, and tired. Sleep young one" knowing he would not let it go I settled in for some well-needed sleep.
Auron's POV
I was mentally clapping myself on the back. I did something right for once. I swooped in, killed the fiends, healed her, and got her to sleep, in my coat! I pulled her shivering sleeping body closer to me when I got an idea. I started a fire in a nearby cave to keep us warm. I carried her into the cave. She woke up about sunrise confused and disoriented.
"Auron?" She rubbed her eyes and sat up. I turned from my spot on the floor where I was keeping the fire going. She stretched her small body and stood up.
"Yes Rikku?" I busied myself with the fire as not to stare. She walked over to me and leaned over my shoulder.
"You do realize that WE'RE TRAPPED IN HERE!" I looked up at her calmly.
"Really? I didn't notice…" I laughed a little at how ridiculous I sounded. She looked at me, obviously dumbfounded at my tone and glared. She sat down next to me a little cautiously.
"Did you do this on purpose?" She had a suggestive tone in her voice. I was truly shocked about that one.
"Excuse me?" I turned towards her. She had lost all of the child likeness in her eyes.
"You heard me. You seem to be prepared for this. Even then, why can't we just blast our way out of here? "I laughed a little under my breath. I did a go ahead and try it gesture toward the door. She got a look of defiance in her face and huffed toward the cave entrance. She tried for hours it seemed like. Launching white and black magic spells to spin kicks and Godhand smacks. She gave up and slumped down hardly having made a dent in the wall of snow.
"Well maybe you didn't... But how do you explain that little stockpile over there?" She had a point; I did have a little stockpile of wood and food.
"I didn't know how long you would sleep and if you would be hungry when you woke up" She finally looked convinced
"Fine…" She got that look in her eyes that she gets when she steals something good.
"Wanna play truth or dare?"
