Chapter IV: The Fayth

Disclaimer: I don't own FFX or any of the characters!

There was no one else in the Farplane, only Rikku, Lulu, and herself. She walked over to the edge of the deck and looked out at the familiar fields and waterfalls with millions of pyreflies dancing around.

"So Tidus is out there somewhere," Yuna said to herself.

As soon as she said his name, a faded form of him floated in front of her, surrounded in pyreflies and lifeless.

Uncontrollable tears spilled from the corners of her eyes. Her knees gave way under her and she collapsed, sitting on her feet.

~*~*~*~

Tidus floated above Yuna, looking at the form of him that she could see, 'I wish I could talk to her,' He thought.

He floated down and sat next to her, his legs crossed. He put his hand on her shoulder.

"Huh?" Yuna said, a shiver going down her back.

"Can she sense me?"

Tidus put his hand through her hair and then hugged her.

She sat straight up, her eyes wide.

"What's the matter, Yuna?" Lulu asked coming over to her.

"It's nothing," Yuna replied, "It must be the pyreflies."

Lulu nodded and walked back over toward Rikku.

'What's up with this? I've never felt this way before in here,' Yuna thought.

Tidus put his arm around her neck. She stiffened but didn't move away. He kept it that way.

A few minutes later.

Yuna did a last prayer and got up, her eyes sparkling with tears, "Lulu, Rikku, let's go."

Lulu and Rikku both nodded and walked out.

Yuna started to walk out, but turned around one last time to look at Tidus. She bit her lip to prevent too many tears from coming, turned around and ran out.

Tidus watched her go, his tears begging to be let out also.

He sat there for a few more minutes, then got up and floated back down off the deck.

When he got back down to the ground there was a Fayth waiting for him.

"Huh? What do you want now, kid?"

"I have come here to the Farplane for the sake of our planet," the Fayth said.

"What?"

"Sin is gone, but Spira is still not safe," the Fayth continued, "Sin was only a minor threat."

"Are you saying there's something bigger and badder than Sin out there?!"

The Fayth nodded.

"Who?!"

"Not much is known about this thing, but it is the creator of Sin."

"Well, why'd you come here to tell me that? I mean, what's a dead person gonna do about it?"

"Only the ones who defeated Sin have the slightest chance of defeating it."

"Oh-wait so you're saying you can bring me back to life?"

"Precisely. You, Auron, Jecht, and Braska."

Tidus' face lit up, "Now?"

The Fayth nodded, "Are you ready?"

Tidus nodded excitedly.

"Okay," the Fayth did a prayer and said a few words that Tidus didn't understand.

The ground below him and his body began to glow gold and he dematerialized into the air.
