Title: The Calm Before the Storm

Author: The Perky Pixie

Rating: PG for now.

Archive: I don't have a problem with it, just e-mail me so I know where the story is going.

Disclaimer: Nothing from FFX belongs to me. I'm just gonna borrow some of it for a while (yes....borrow....*nods self*). Arilia and Sadion are my own original characters.

Summery: Takes place after FFX, at the end of The Calm before Sin again returns. Rated PG for now, but may get up to R for violence, language, and possibly a racy scene.

Author's notes: This is the first fan-fic that I have written. I've yet to finish the game, though I've read a bit about what happens (without totally spoiling it). I'm sorry if things don't sound right. There are some things I don't want to know about the story line yet. Anyway, this is a fan-fiction. It's ok to stray from the story line. I hope you enjoy the story. ^_^ BTW: Every thing between // \\ is a character's thoughts.



Prologue:

The sound of crashing waves against dunes and cliffs of Besaid's coast was all that could be heard. No birds squawked. No children played in the sands. The rushing breeze didn't even whistle. Anyone on the beach would consider it peaceful. But the lone, figure hunched just out of the sea's reach knew different. Spira was in it's Calm, but the storm was approaching quickly.

Wakka wanted to deny that Sin would return. But there, alone on the beach, in the quiet, his feelings returned to reality.

//Sin is eternal.\\ A bitter chuckle escaped him. He actually believed that the sacrifice of Yuna would be enough to end it all. That she was special. Different from the other summoners before her. He shook his head at the preposterous thought. She wasn't blessed by Yevon anymore than Dona or Isaaru. Not even her father, a High Summoner, could end the reign of Sin.

//It useless to even try again. Sin will just return.\\

Drawing patterns in the sand with his fingers, and lost in the thought of Sin's return, Wakka didn't notice a visitor walk up next to him, until she plopped down, and tried to cuddle under his arm. He turned and looked at the young, dark haired child, smiling slightly. She was so innocent, never having experienced the acts of Sin. The child nuzzled deeper into Wakka's side, making him smile a bit more.

//But I will try. For innocence, I'll try...\\

*What's gonna happen? And who's the girl? Hmm...betcha can't guess. ^_^ Also, If anyone has an idea for a better title, feel free to make a suggestion. I'm really bad with the things. I'll have some more of the story up tomorrow night. I'm just tired now and have a headache from being on the computer too long. Hope you liked this little bit.
