Love Has No Boundaries
(From Chapter 3)
The airship gave a big black smoke and fell down the blue sky. The ship crashed into one of the islands near southwest of Spira. Yuna and her guardians loosed their grip and fell away from the crashing airship… The crash suddenly stopped, and it was quiet again.
Chapter 4: The Edge of Spira
The only noise that could be heard in the island was the breeze of the wind. Not far from the shores of the island, in the nearby forest, the cold breeze touched a woman's hand and there she awakened. Her right hand moved and supported her body to stand up. Her clothes got torn during the crash, but not completely. She stood up and explored the whole place. She saw ruins of old infrastructures, status of what seem to look like an ancient creature. She searched the whole place looking for her friends…
"Am I the only one alive…?" She asked herself.
All alone, she walked for hours just to search, but to her disappointment, she could not find anyone. She got deeper in the dark scary forest. It made her think that this place was the land of the dead, because not a living creature could be spotted. She walked hastily, because of fear. She wanted to find someone, someone who could comfort her.
"Tidus, if only you were here…" She cried.
She tried to whistle again just in case someone could hear her. No one did come, but she would not give up. The only noise that could be heard was her whistle and the cold breeze of the wind. Suddenly, she stopped whistling, and heard a noise coming from the nearby bushes.
"Is some… Is someone there?" She asked in fear.
The noise got louder, and a huge wolf-like fiend jumped towards her. Scared, she ran as fast as she could, hoping that someone might help her. Tiredness gained up on her, which made her slow and trip on a big root of a tree. The fiend stopped as it was observing her. The drooling saliva that was coming out of its mouth signaled that it was hungry; hungry that it could it her in a bite. She just closed her eyes waiting for her death when someone stabbed the fiend at the back. The fiend moaned in agony and vanished into pyerflies.
"Is Lady Yuna alright?" He said holding his spear tightly.
"Thank you Kimahri… Where are the others?" Yuna asked.
"Sorry Lady Yuna, but Kimahri don't know where the others are…" Kimahri said.
"It's okay… Let's just search for them…"
They heard a large explosion coming from the east. They followed the noise, which would lead them to the explosion.
"It might be the ship Kimahri…" Yuna said hoping it was not.
"I have keen sense of smell… Follow Kimahri!" Kimahri shouted.
The nose of Kimahri leaded them to the exploding ship. Intense heat surrounded the area, and the two of them were perspiring. The dancing flames devoured the ship as well as the huge trees that surrounded it. They saw a girl not far away crying and speaking a different language. They went towards her and saw Rikku wounded…
"Father, Fro tet drec ryja du dybbah du oui…? (Why did this have to happen to you…?)" Rikku mourned.
As if Yuna understood what she was saying, she knelt down and hugged her to comfort her.
"Rikku… I'm sorry that this has to happen to your father… It's all my fault…" Yuna, feeling guilty, told her.
"No, no, no… It's not your fault Yunie… What happens, will happen and we cannot do anything about it so don't feel guilty… I'm not mad at you… Let's just look for Lulu and Wakka." Rikku answered wiping her eye.
"Okay."
Yuna healed Rikku's wound, and they both stood up to continue the search. With the two of them, Yuna felt relieved and the fear that was in her mind was gone. They reached the end of the forest, and there they saw a symbol that looked like to have a huge eye on top and a weird body connecting to it. They knew it was the Yevon symbol.
"Do you think we're near the temple, Yunie?" Rikku asked.
"I think so… If we found this, then the temple might be near here…" Yuna explained.
They reached the other end of the island and found the opposite shore. More ruins were found there, pillars lining up until the end of the shoreline as if it leads to somewhere below the ocean.
"This must be the place…" Yuna said.
"How do we reach it?" Rikku asked curiously.
"I still don't know…" Yuna said.
After hours of thinking, they made a campfire for warmth. They sat down the brown sand of the island and rested. Not far from them, they heard two people talking to each other… They knew who it was…
"You know Wakka? This is really all your fault!" Lulu argued looking at the torn dress that the crashing ship gave her.
"Why me agen, ya? Can't find someone else to argue with?" Wakka answered back.
"No… I am just telling the truth… If you did not brought Yuna to Lucca, then I think we are still in Besaid NOT stranded in this island that I did not even knew it existed." Lulu trying to piss Wakka off.
"C'mon Lu… I just want to make Yuna happy…" Wakka held Lulu's smooth hands.
"And at the same time risked her life?" Lulu said while she took her hands away from Wakka.
"No… I did not know that this was going to happen… So don't blame it on me Lu." Wakka explained
"…" Lulu did not say anything.
"Ha! Gotcha! Can't say anything, ya?" Wakka said smiling.
"Urrr… Okay, you win this time… BUT the next time we argue… I am going to win!" Lulu exclaimed.
"Lu… There's something I wanna tell you…" Wakka said seriously.
"What… Is… It?" Lulu asked trying figure out what Wakka would say to her.
"Lu… I…"
Without Wakka being able to finish, Rikku shouted at them.
"HEY! YOU TWO! OVER HERE!"
The two, speechless, went towards them. They both saw Rikku, Kimahri, Yuna, fine.
"I am glad that no one got hurt…" Lulu smiled.
"Where's Cid?" Wakka asked.
"He's… he's… gone…" Rikku said as tears started to fall out on her eyes.
"I'm sorry Rikku, ya." Wakka apologized.
"It' okay… Dirt went in my eyes…" Rikku said covering up what she was really feeling deep inside.
"Arguing again?" Yuna asked giggling.
The two of them just nodded without saying a word.
"You know… You two really make a good couple… Don't you agree? Kimahri? Rikku?" Yuna said.
"Right you are Yunie! If I didn't know the two of you, I'd think that you are married couples!" Rikku exclaimed.
Kimahri just nodded saying that he agreed. Both Lulu and Wakka blushed and tried to change the topic.
"Ummm… Whaddaya think Lu?" Wakka asked as his heart started to pound.
"… So… Where's the temple?" Lulu took a deep breath.
"We think that the temple is near here… There are a lot of ruins in this area…" Yuna told them.
"Hey! Don't change the topic Lulu… C'mon tell us!" Rikku pleading.
"… We'll see…" Lulu said plainly and smiled.
"Huh? That's it? Ooooh…" Rikku said disappointed.
"How do we find the temple Lady Yuna?" Lulu asked.
"I still don't know what to do… I just can't figure out what to do…" Yuna sighed.
"Since this is the Aeon of Love… The key might be love, ya?" Wakka said.
"It is pretty obvious, Wakka…" Lulu gave a sinister look at Wakka.
"What I do now?!" Wakka exclaimed.
Lulu and Wakka both argued again, while Kimahri and Rikku enjoyed the sight of them, arguing. Without letting anyone know, Yuna walked towards the end of the shore and sat down. She closed her eyes and raised her rod. She focused her mind of the times when she was still with Tidus, the memorable times they had with each other. Suddenly a ray of light from the sky hit the bottom of the ocean while Yuna's rod glowed in red. Everyone was shocked and looked straight at Yuna. A large tremble occurred over the island. Kimahri dashed towards Yuna and grabbed her away from the huge waves the ocean was emitting. The commotion suddenly stopped and something was rising deep inside the ocean. A grayish temple with green algae around it rose slowly as it formed whirlpools around it. The entrance to the temple came out forming a bridge towards the shore. It looked like a dome that has four tall pillars in every corner of the temple. On its top, a statue was there which was shaped like hearts with a large Yevon sign on the middle. They all stared at the large temple.
"Whoa! It's huge!" Wakka awed.
"It's the temple Yunie!!! You did it!" Rikku excitedly ran towards the bridge.
"I guess I did…" Yuna smiled.
The long forgotten legendary temple, The Mogalian Temple, appeared to them at last. They dashed into the creaky bridge to enter the ancient temple of the Aeon. Suddenly, a person appeared to them. The bald person wore ancient red robes, and halted them.
"Stop! Only the summoner may enter the temple…"
"But why? We are her guardians." Rikku asked.
"If you value your lives, you will not enter the temple guardians! It is the curse of the temple!" the man shouted.
"I'll be alright. Don't worry… This will be quick." Yuna told them.
"Be careful Lady Yuna." Lulu said.
"Don't worry, I will…" Yuna smiled back at her.
Yuna went in bravely into the temple waving to her friends. The man told the others to go back to the shore to wait for Yuna's comeback. However, the temple suddenly sank back into the ocean with Yuna.
"YUNA!" everyone shouted.
End of Chapter 4…
