Old Enemies
Tidus went over the list he had made several time before leaving. He defiantly had to bring his silver handgun. He wouldn't go through with it if he left it behind.
He went to the docks were he was meant to be meeting Seymour with Yuna, but instead he was meeting Seymour with 3 highly trained snipers and 9 street fighters with guns.
He walked to were he was meeting Leanne and the others. We was wearing black everything so it wasn't hard to move around. He sat down out of sight until he felt someone pull him back from behind.
"Leanne! What the hell do you think your doing?"
She just smiled and said, "Glad you can make it."
"Same. When are we getting her?"
"Well, we have to wait for Kev to get back, they're checking the area looking for Seymour's goons."
"Right."
A few minuets pass and the man come back, giving a thumbs up to let them know they were good to go.
"OK. The snipers know were to go. You go round and face Seymour. Knowing him, he'll walk towards you and try kill you that way. While he does that im gunna sneak round back and get her. You with me?"
"Yeah, lets go."
Everyone went to where they were supposed to go and Tidus started edging his way in sight. But he didn't see who he expected. Rachel was there with a blind fold on and something covering her mouth but the man who was with her wasn't Seymour. It was Red. The man who he killed on his assignment with Leanne. When she saw him she was surprised too, but jest went along with it.
"Nice to see you again, Slatter." Red says
"Your dead." Tidus said, refusing to believe he was talking to a man he killed himself.
"Yes. You killed me. But if you remember I had contacts in Kilika. Healers, priests those type of people. A few minuets after that Leanne scum dragged you off, they revived me."
Tidus just stared, a little annoyed at what he had called Leanne. "So, Where is she?"
"Who?"
"Don't play dumb Slatter. Yuna. The girl you were meant to be bringing."
"She's safe. Where Seymour, the guy I was meant to be meeting?"
"Doing a job. Quick question. Does she know about your past?"
Tidus just looked down at the floor and shook his head. "No."
"And your meant to be her guardian. Does her Father know about you?"
"Part of it."
Red was starting to move forwards now towards Tidus leaving Rachel sat on the floor. Leanne quickly made her move and began to untie her blind fold. Rachel starts to fight but when she see's its Leanne she cooperates.
"So why are you here, instead of Seymour?" Tidus asked trying to get his 100% attention.
"We all have our Masters. I'm Seymour's."
"He didn't tell me that."
"No I suppose he wouldn't of. But you, I've wanted to get back at you since you shot me. I know your armed so why not?"
"Because this shot isn't for you." Tidus said as he started to back away.
"Oh? It's Seymour's I suppose?"
Tidus just looked at Red and when he saw that Leanne and Rachel where out of sight, he said, "Well, I must get going now, I've got what I came for." He turned to go but was stopped by a gunfire.
He turned and saw Red with two guns in each hand, both pointed at Tidus. "You make one more move and I'll finish what I started."
"I wouldn't do that if I were you."
"Why's that?"
Bang!
Red dropped to the floor and the two guns fell out of his hands. Tidus looked up to see that Caram had shot him. He gave a thumbs up and Tidus returned it. He went over to Red and put two fingers to his neck. After feeling no pulse, he took the guns and made his way out of the docks like the rest.
He got to the car and thanked everyone for helping. It was just him, Leanne, Rachel and Kevin were left. When Rachel saw Tidus she ran straight for him, embracing the cousin she hadn't seen for 3 years. "You have some explaining to do." Says Tidus as they get into the car and drive off. He looked over to her occasionally to see the black eyes and bruises she had, reminding him a lot of the first time he meet Yuna.
It was now nearly 10pm and Tidus still wasn't back. She had made it clear to her body guards she wasn't going anywhere until he was home. She waited and waited until she heard a car door shut and she waited for the door to go. The front door opened and coming through it she saw Tidus followed by a woman with long curly hair tied back. She had Ocean Blue eyes like Tidus and small ears. The first thing Yuna noticed about this woman is that she had two black eyes the same size as cricket balls.
"Well, here we are." Tidus said as he closed the door.
"Nice place. Reminds me of that mansion ol Billy used to have, remember? The place we set on fire?"
"Yeah, but that wasn't MY fault now was it?"
"OK. I guess I have to admit it was my fault… but you were there as well."
"Hmm, YUNA! Im back!"
When she heard this she ran to the entrance hallway and went straight to Tidus, hugging him tightly. They stood like that for a few moments. They pulled apart when they heard a wolf whistle coming from the woman. "Something you forgot to tell me?"
Tidus started to blush as the woman got a very cheeky smile on her pace and she just said, "I get the picture." She extended her hand towards mine and said, "Rachel, and you must be the famous Yuna I've hears oh so much about in the last 10 minuets."
"Yes, this is her. Yuna this is Rachel, my cousin and Rachel this is Yuna, my girlfriend."
"Well this is a record for you isn't it cuz? Your last girlfriend it took months for any family members to meet her. Why was that? Did we embarrass you?"
"Just wondering, what happened to your eyes?" Asked Yuna. She already knew but she wanted to move away from Tidus' ex-girlfriends.
"Oh this? Yeah, I was walking down the street and I saw a kid run in front of a bus and-"
"She's bull shitting." Tidus says
"Am not."
"Are too."
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
Yuna couldn't help but laugh at these two as they made their way to the kitchen. They acted like brother and sister. Rachel saw the pizza oven and went straight for it.
Tidus sent the guards away and they all ate pizza. It was getting towards 11pm when Rachel announced when she was tired and said, "Where am I gunna be sleeping then?"
Tidus replied, "In my room."
"And where are you going to be sleeping?"
"With Yuna."
"And how far apart are these two rooms?"
"Opposite each other."
Another smile appeared on her face. She looked at Tidus and then to Yuna and then back to Tidus and said, "Alright, but just remember, I have good hearing and the walls look thin."
The soul reason Rachel said this was to get either Tidus or Yuna to blush. She accomplished her objective by making them both blush. "OK cuz. Chop, chop. I don't know where im going."
"Fine. Be right back." He says to Yuna as he pecks her on the cheek.
While they're going upstairs, Rachel says to Tidus, "God, a kiss on the cheek when your going upstairs for only 2 minuets. I wonder what you'd do if you were staying in Zanarkand for a month? I expect the poor girl would'nt be walking for a week.
"Shut up." Huffed Tidus, forcing out another blush.
5 minuets later Tidus came back down stairs with soaking hair. Yuna raised her eye brows and asked, "What happened?"
"I was showing her where the bathroom was and she fancied a water fight. I splashed her down her top and she started using the shower." Tidus said chuckling a little. "She always used to do that."
Yuna laughed as well and started to run her fingers through her locks. "So, you happy to know that she's safe?"
"Yeah, real happy." Says Tidus, now sitting down. Yuna sits on his lap and finishes the rest of the pizza. "You tired?" She asks.
He nods his head and yawns. "Been a long day. Plus the fact you threw a fit over thinking I was cheating on you with my cousin."
"You would of done the same if you were me."
"Rikku's your only cousin, right?"
"Yeah, well besides Brother."
"Rikku's brother right?"
She nods and he gulps, bringing back the memory of beating him half to death. He would have to tell them sooner or later. "Are you tired?" Tidus asked
She nods and gets up, allowing him to do the same. "I think im going to wake up late and have a lie in tomorrow."
"Rub it in why don't you. I have to get up early tomorrow." Tidus says as he sticks out his bottom lip and pouts.
"Aww, poor baby." Yuna says as Tidus nods. They make their way upstairs and into Yuna room.
"Excited about tomorrow?" Tidus asked, slipping into bed.
She shrugs and says, "To me its just another birthday."
"Just another birthday? Your 18th birthday? When you officially become an adult?"
"When your boyfriend is legally aloud to fuck your brains out?" Shouts Rachel from the next room.
Yuna and Tidus both laughed at this and couldn't believe how thin the walls were as they were talking in nearly a whisper.
"Shut up, stop ease dropping and go to sleep!" Shouts Tidus while thumping the wall.
"I can give you 1 out of 3. I can shut up if you want?"
"No, I choose go to sleep."
"Fine, just don't wake me up you dirty ladies!" Shouts Rachel and after that there is just silence.
"Im so sorry." Says Tidus trying hard not to laugh. Yuna on the other hand was not doing so well. "I thought there was nobody out there worst then Rikku."
"Nah, Rach beats them all." Tidus said as he stole a quick kiss and said "Goodnight."
"Night. Love you."
"You too."
After that there was a loud fake snoring from the other room and Tidus just got up, walked to the other room and there was screaming for a minuets and then everything was silent. Tidus came back in and snuggled down next too Yuna and went quickly to sleep.
