Yuna stands on the end of the dock in Luca and whistles, the signal Tidus promised would bring him to her no matter where he is. Yuna's guardian Lulu walks across the dock quietly watching sadly. "Yuna, it's time." She calls, with rare kindness showing in her voice. Lulu returns to Luca stadium to wait for Yuna.
Yuna looks out at the water. You promised you'd come to me...she says to her memory of Tidus. She turns sadly from the ocean and looks at the stadium. She remembers what a Summoner must do; she must show the people that she is strong. She must be the people's strength. She takes a deep breath and walks to the stadium to join her guardians before she speaks to the people. Lulu, Wakka, Kimahri, and Rikku walk behind Yuna giving their silent condolences.
Yuna walks onto the stage where she is to address the people that fill the stadium. The crowd cheers and calls her name. Everyone in Spira wants to see the Summoner who truly defeated Sin.
When the cheering begins to die down Yuna begins to speak. "Everyone...everyone has lost something precious." The crowd stays silent, knowing the truth of her words. "Everyone here has lost homes, dreams, and friends." Yuna paused to look at the crowd. "Everybody! Now Sin is finally dead!" The crowd roars to life, their joy proclaimed with their voices. "Now Spira is ours again. Working together now we can make new homes for ourselves...and new dreams." The cheering begins once again. "Although I know the journey will be hard...We have lots of time. Together we will rebuild Spira." She paused once again to gauge her audience. "The road is ahead of us." The cheer of the audience begins to die down. "So lets start out today!" The cheers gain back their fervor as Yuna looks back at her guardians for their support, which they give readily.
"Just one more thing!" She calls to the crowd and they become quiet once more. "The people and the friends, we've lost, the dreams that have faded." Memories flow through Yuna's mind. She sees he guardians Kimahri, Rikku, Lulu, Auron, and Wakka. She remembers her wedding with Seymour, how she only said yes to save her friends. Then her heart sings when she remembers when Tidus kissed her in the spring; he showed her what it was like to love without fear, to feel safe. Then she sees the spring as is was when she entered it feeling so sad and lost. "Never forget them." Yuna calls to the audience and they clap their agreement. "I'll never forget you Tidus..." She whispers to herself.
Tidus heard her whistle, once, twice, three times. He opens his eyes and stretches. He promised he would come running when he heard her whistle so he was keeping his promise. He swims as fast as he can to the surface of the water, knowing he's home...back in Spira one thousand years in his future. He no longer felt as if Zanarkand was his home, home is where ever Yuna is. When he reaches the surface he notices Luca stadium. Then he sees her, Yuna, walking away from the water. Where's she going? I'm right here! Just like I promised. He tries to call to her but realizes he's to far for her to hear him.
Tidus swims as fast as he can to the dock and climbs up. He looks around and can no longer see Yuna. He hears cheers in the stadium and has a feeling the cheers are for her. Tidus run to the stadium but decides to wait outside. He hears her voice and closes his eyes while he listens to her.
"Just one more thing!" He hears her call. "The people and friends, we've lost, the dreams that have faded." Tidus' eyes open quickly, realizing that during the silence she is remembering their journey. Then he hears her voice again, this time more sad. "Never forget them."
"I would hope not, Yuna." Tidus whispers to himself. He pulls himself away from the wall and waits by the stairs he knew she'd be traveling down. Finally he heard footsteps. He knew Lulu, Wakka, Kimahri, and Rikku were with her.
Tidus heard Lulu speaking to Yuna. "You did well, Yuna."
"Thank you." He heard Yuna reply.
Tidus' excitement prevented him from waiting any longer and he walked around the corner in time to see Yuna with her head downcast. The shock on her guardians' faces made him smile as he put his finger to his lips silently asking them not to say a word.
