Finally another chapter! Sorry about the delay. I hope to see some wonderful reviews for this! Pay the author some respects! lol





The walk through forest was very short, in fact it took less than five minutes to get to Guado salom. When we got there, I saw that there was a crowd of people waiting for us.

"Hello, I am the summoner Yuna." I said as I bowed my head to them.

They all bowed their heads to me aswell. I smiled warmly at them, "I must be going now, farewell." I waved to them and started on way out of the Salom.

Just when I was stopped by an elderly gentleman, "Maester Seymour wish's to see you in his chambers Lady Yuna." He said. "Oh, forgive me, I am Tromell." He said bowing his head to us.

I smiled, "May my guardians come with us aswell?" I said politely.

"Yes, of course! This way please." He said gesturing his hand towards the door of the mansion.



Inside everything was beautiful, but at the same time very creepy. I looked at all the past leaders of the Guado tribe on the walls, my eyes stopped at maester jiskel. He had been a truly honorable man; he deserved all the praise he got over the years. I sat down on one of the step and thought about Auron. He was sending me some messages that I was having a hard time deciphering, like did he really care for me? He wasn't being clear about that at all. I ran a hand through my hair, smoothing it to my liking.

Auron, I wish I could tell you, tell you all the things I want you to tell me. I reached into my pocket and pulled out a necklace, it was the necklace that Auron had given me when he left to fight Sin with my father all those years ago. I kissed it and put it back in my pocket.



I walked down the stairs to see what was going on, Auron came up to me.

"Yuna do you have any idea why we had to come in here?" he asked curiously.

I shook my head, "No, I have no idea why the maester would want to see me in his chambers." I replied to him politely.

He sighed, "I just hope that it doesn't take that long, we have a long ways to go, and we can't afford to waste our time." He said straitening his collar.

I looked him in the eye, "Do you think the Maester has something important to tell me?"

Auron returned the glance, "Maybe, but he really can't be pulling us away from our course like this." He said impatiently.

Just as I was about to speak, Tromell came out of the doors; "Come into the dinning room, the Maester will see you soon."

Auron sighed, "Why's everything always about him, we do have places to go you know." He said to the Guado.

"Because he is a Maester, what he wants is what he gets." Tromell said ignorantly.

Auron walked by the guado without another word, leaving the man with an angry look on his face. I sighed, why does he have to be in such a hurry all the time? I guess that's a question i'll never know the answer to. I said to myself.



The dinning room was very beautiful; I walked over to the table and sat down to pour myself a glass of wine. The taste was bitter to say the least; I put the drink down and waited for Seymour to show up. After awhile I got bored, I started to play with the long sleeves of my Summoners gown.

"Do you really think that's something a Summoner should be doing?" I looked up to see Auron looking at me with slightly disappointed look on his face.

I straitened myself up, "I was just waiting for Seymour." I said with my hands in my lap.

"Me too, we've been waiting for nearly an half an hour." He said looking up at the clock on the wall.

I was feeling nervous, tell him! I heard a voice in my head say. I looked up at him nervously, "Auron, do you li…like tea?!" dang, why didn't I say the right thing I scolded myself.

He looked over at me surprised by my question, "Well, I'm actually more of a coffee person myself. But yes, from time to time I do enjoy a good cup of tea." He said looking at me oddly.

I looked all around the room for some inspiration, I stopped on a statue, "Auron, are you into artwork?" I asked him with a nervous smile.

"No not really, unless it's of a worrier or something." He said distractedly.

"What are you thinking about?" I came out and said.

"Nothing really, I'm thinking about you actually." He said calmly.

"Oh, I'm nothing huh?" I said playfully to him.

"I didn't mean it like that, I meant that…I think about you sometimes when I've got nothing else on my mind." He said in a confirming tone.

"What do you think about me, when you think about me?" I said to him with a charming smile on my face.

He looked at the floor for a few seconds, "Well, I think about the journey that I'm taking with you, and about the way your smile lights up a room." He said turning his face from mine.

"You think my smile lights up the room?" I asked him innocently.

He paused and took a deep breath, "Yes. When you smile it's like all the clouds are lifted from the sky, and all of Heaven's beauty can shine through." He said poetically.

I was in awe at the beauty of his speech, "Auron…I've never had such a wonderful compliment from someone in all of my life." I said closing my eyes as I smiled.

"You'll be sure to receive many more like that in your lifetime." He said sadly.

I moved closer to him and put my arms around him, "I know that I won't be here for much longer, but let's try to make the best of things while we can." I said planting a small kiss on his cheek.

He sighed, "But, I don't know if I can handle the thought of losing another Summoner." He said sadly as he wiped his eye.

"I'll give you the strength to handle anything." I said as I moved my lips up to meet his.

He moved his head down to my level and kissed me tenderly.

I saw Seymour coming into the room from the corner of my eye, I pulled away from Auron quickly and whispered in his ear, "The Maesters here, we can't let him catch us doing something we shouldn't be doing." I said to him informatively.

"Go to him Yuna, finish whatever business that he wants with you." He said stroking my face softly.



"Lady Yuna, it is a pleasure." Seymour said bowing before me.

"And it is a very great pleasure for me aswell." I said returning the bow. "Maester Seymour, may I ask why it is that you called me here?"

"There's plenty of time for that, sit down take your time getting comfortable." He said gesturing towards the chairs.

Auron came out and said, "Make it quick, Yuna must hurry." He said impatiently.

Seymour sighed, "Very well, this way please." He said gesturing towards some sort of machine.



When we all got inside it was like going through time or something. The sights and sounds of Zanarkand were truly something from a fantasy. There were pretty lights shining all around us, I danced around happily, bathing my self in the beautiful atmosphere.

When it was all over, I saw Lady Yunalesca! She was just as beautiful as everyone always told me she was.

"Lady Yunalesca fought alongside Lord Zaon and defeated Sin for the first time." Seymour said eyeing me like he wanted something from me.

He pulled me into an area where he could talk to me in private, "Yuna, I called you here today to ask for your hand in marriage." He said with a clever smile.

I felt my face turn red; I turned away from him and started to drink a glass of water.

"Wow! You're face is beat red." Rikku said in a chipper voice.

"What did he say?" Auron asked me.

"He proposed to me!" I said in disbelief.

Auron looked not happy but not angry, "You know what Yuna must do." He said agitatedly.

"Yes. There's no need to answer right away, take your time, come talk to me when you've made your decision." He said giving me a compassionate smile.

"We will do so then, let's get out of here." Auron said walking towards the exit.

Seymour came out and said, "Why are you still here Sir? I'm sorry us Guado are keen to the scent of the farplane." He said like a smart ass.

Tidus started to sniff Auron like a dog; Auron punched Tidus and walked out the door angrily.

I was left there to think about what Seymour had just said, what did it all mean I wondered? The scent of the farplane, Life was becoming increasingly confusing by the day.



That's it for now, Review or I'll be really sad. And I'll take a long time getting the next chapter up. Lol, Happy? I really want to see some thanks out of you people
