Rikku's Journal

So, here I am. I'm on the ship, working like hell 'cause Brother's in charge of me since Pops couldn't make it. Tomorrow, we're going into one of the rooms that are still pretty stable. Brother doesn't want me to go, 'cause he's scared I'll get killed by a fiend, y'know? But I can take care of myself. That guy taught me how to fight. You remember? The one with the eye patch.

We found this boy in the ruins today. He was fighting a fiend, so I jumped in to help him. Then, all the other guys came and wanted to kill him, but I told them to leave him alone. All the same, I had to knock him out. I'm afraid I might've hit him too hard. He's been unconscious all night now. Maybe he'll be awake by tomorrow morning. Well, I gotta get to sleep. The Captain's sending me down to see if there is still power in those ruins. Later!

He woke up earlier! We didn't have time to actually introduce ourselves, 'cause Brother's putting him to work. Says if any Yevonites plan to stay on his ship, they're gonna have to work. He sending the boy down with me to check for that power in the ruins. Can you believe it? I have nothing against the Yevonites, but I don't wanna be in their company that much. Still, there's something odd about him. Well, I guess I'll talk to him later.

Wow… I'm still shaking. Can you believe we were attacked by Sin? Who would've thought he'd come here? And Tidus… he's gone. He just fell off the ship, y'know? Right. Okay, so Tidus was the boy we found in the ruins. And he had already been near Sin before! He was ranting on about how he was the star athlete from the Zanarkand Abes. Sins toxin must've really gotten to Tidus, because he wouldn't let me tell him that he was just imagining it. He was really set on making me believe he was from Zanarkand. Oh well. I do hope he's all right though. I was gonna take him to Luca for the blitzball tournament. He said he played, and I guess I believe him from the way he swam around underwater, so I guess he would know someone from the tournament. Well, I have a feeling he's alright. Well, we're sailing off to another area tomorrow. I've still got 2 months out here left… This is gonna be hell. See you later!

Someone said they saw a Summoner with five guardians heading towards the Moonflow on their pilgrimage. And I get the lovely task of kidnapping them. That many guardians, by myself? They're sure to put up a fight since one of them are bound to see me. Oh well. Here goes nothing!

It was Yunie! I had to kidnap Yunie! And just to keep me interested, Tidus was there too! He's alive! Anyway, I get to be a guardian! Isn't that exciting? This guy Auron said that I could. Yunie warned me not to say anything about being Al Bhed, because this Wakka guy doesn't like the Al Bhed. Y'know, maybe he should try to get to know one! Like me! We're human too! Jeez.

Home is gone. Just like that. Poof! Up in smoke. Godamn Guado. Couldn't they leave well enough alone? Well… nothing to do now except go find Yunie. Oh yeah, did I mention that? She went missing after we killed Seymour in Macalania. And I don't even wanna talk about him he just makes me so mad. Y'know, I think I'm gonna stop with this stupid journal. I mean, why did I even start it anyway? Rrgh… goodbye readers!

I had to do so much research for this chapter. I was running on mountain dew hehehe. And eggs… but that's not important. What's REALLY important is the hopefulness ahead YAAAAY! Okay bye I'm gonna go work on the next chapter.
