Fipp: Here's the next chapter.

It Was Wonderful

"Hey, it's me again, the Summoner from before, you know, Yuna? Though you probably still don't really know who I am yet. You might have some small memories of me though, I just know you do, because if you didn't know who I was, even by a little, then you wouldn't have…

"Anyway, I can't stay long, we have a long journey ahead of us, but they're letting me have a few minutes before we get going.

"When I first saw you, I thought at first I was dreaming, but when I spoke to you again, I felt so relieved because it really was you and not just a ghost of a memory. But I don't see why you had to be summoned by Chaos. That just seems cruel because you aren't the kind of person to work for them.

"But, in the next Cycle, you'll be one of Cosmos' warriors. She said that until then, she'll keep you safe, and I trust her. I think you'll be rather happy here. There's all sorts of interesting people like Zidane, and Bartz, you'd like them, and there's Squall and the Warrior, please try to make sure they don't bring you down, and…

"I don't know where they took Sir Jecht, but I fear that something terrible has happened to him. I know despite what you said, you deeply love your father, and I know that if anyone can save him, it'll be you. You managed to work out your problems before, so I think you can work out everything again in the next Cycle.

"Though, I won't be there to see it…

"I'm-I'm not going to be in the next Cycle. The chances of us coming back alive from where the Manikins are coming from are really slim. So, this may be the last time we ever see each other again.

"It's kind of funny, in a morbid way, but you sacrificed yourself to make sure I'd live. But now, I'm going to sacrifice what it takes to make sure you're kept safe.

"Even though it was brief, I'm glad we got this chance to see each other, even if it didn't end like how I dreamt it should've. But despite that, I wouldn't have traded it away for anything in the world. Seeing you again had made me so happy. It was wonderful.

"So, goodbye Tidus. I love you."

Yuna stood up from her seat next to the sleeping Tidus and looked to Cosmos. Seeing the Summoner was done, the goddess waved her hand, causing Tidus to vanish to safe place in a shower of lights.

With him gone, Yuna walked away, and towards Lightning, Vaan and Laguna.

Lighting didn't seem too comfortable, and tried to keep her distance, while Laguna and Vaan offered words of comfort and reassuring smiles.

They left Order's Sanctuary, heading towards the Land of Discord. Yuna took the back of the group, trying to not look back as she used her sleeve to wipe the dampness from her eyes.
