Part Three
A large crowd of people had gathered to meet the young man ho helped to save Spira. They wouldn't leave him alone, it sort of reminded him of his days as the star blitzball player for the Zanarkand Abes. Or was that just part of his imagination. He thought of those days fondly, yet he knew them to be nothing more than a joke. He really hadn't been there, he was just a dream created by the fayth to serve an end. Yet he knew that what he had experienced was real, no matter what anyone said.
The first chance that he had, he ran for his life to get away from the admiring group of men, women and children. He needed to leave them so he could think about what had happened. He ran to a secluded spot surrounded by a white mist, he was glad he had goten away. Yet, why did he have the feeling that he wasn't the only person there?
"Ah, I see you were finally able to lose your admirers. You should be proud, you helped to defeat Sin. Those souls are overcome with joy, they now can sleep forever knowing their families will be safe," said the mysterious voice.
"I know, Auron, but I need some time to myself, I need some time to sort through my feelings," Tidus told the older man. "Why did I have to disappear in front of Yuna like that? She said she loved me, and I couldn't do anything. She's in pain and I can't can help this time like I did in the forest."
"You were a dream, nothing more. You were created to serve a purpose and vanish when the task was complete. That is what a drem does. How can you question that?" asked the man. "You can't go back and be with your friends. I'm sorry."
"You're sorry. That's the first time I think I heard you say that, Auron." Tidus got to his feet and looked over to the man in the red jacket. "I think I remember something you told me at the beginning."
"Really, what did say to you?" Auron asked with a smirk of his face.
"Didn't you tell me that this was my story? If that is true, wouldn't it end when I decided it would end?" Tidus inquired.
"What are you getting at, Tidus? You think that if you willed it that it would come true."
"Yeah, why not? I'm sure it'll happen. You know I didn't what it end like that, I had no say in the matter," cried Tidus. "It's not fair, I love Yuna. I love her more than anything."
"You shouldn't cry, it doesn't suit you at all. It's not that simple, though. There has to be a need for you go back. Your friends have to want to see you again," Auron explained. "If they wish for you to come back, then it may be possible."
"I'm sure that Yuna wants to look at me, and I believe the rest of the group are feeling sad that I'm gone." Tidus then turned his back to the man and said, "So I'm going to try. If I don't see you again, I want you to know that I thought of you as a replacement for Jecht. Good-bye." And with that final statement, Tidus closed his eyes and thought of his friends. He pictured each of their faces and the look that would appear when they saw him one more time.
"He vanished. Man, he actually did it. I don't believe it," a voice said from the fog.
"Yes, for some reason I knew he be able to do it. How do you feel, Jecht?" Auron asked the man shrouded in the mist.
"Proud. I'm glad that he was able to grow up to be as strong as he is. You should know that I regretted living alone, thanks for taking care of him for me. I'm sad that he left, though. I'll miss the little punk," Jecht said with the faint glimmer in his eye.
"I know. I'm sad he's gone, but it was his story. Only he can end it." Auron was ready to leave the area when he turned around one last time and spoke three final words. "It begins again…"
