----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tidus finally makes it to what seems to be a town or something like one it's Djose. He's been walking all night and most of the day without rest and he's tired. He barely makes it into the temple before he falls and sleeps. He awakens to find that he is now in a bed, the same bed where Yuna once rested on her pilgrimage. He sighs everything reminds him of her. Everywhere he goes there is always something to remind him of her. They are being drawn together he is sure of it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yuna made her way out of Luca without any problems but now she didn't know where to go. Originally she planned to go to Kilika but something tells her he's not there either. She starts to walk where to she does not know but she feels like she'll find him if she follows her heart. Eventually she ended up at Djose only to find that a boy whose description fit Tidus had left early in that morning. Yuna tried to follow where he was going but there were no clues to his destination. She rested at the Temple, which she noticed was starting to look a little run down, but left not long after she had came. Later just as it was starting to get dark Yuna almost reached the Moonflow. She stopped before she could see the moonlilies and the pyreflies. She wanted to wait until another time to see them and she wanted to be with all her friends not by herself when she did. Her mind wandered back to the days of her pilgrimage. They were not long ago but it felt as if they were ages away. Her mind rested on the thought of Tidus's first visit here.
"These are moonlilies!"
"They say that clouds of pyreflies gather here when night falls."
Yuna tells Tidus.
Lulu then adds, "The entire river
glows, like a sea of stars."
"Really"
"Hey, I got an idea!" Tidus says.
Auron cuts him off before he can start to tell them his idea, "We're not waiting till nightfall"
Tidus looks disappointed for a moment then says, "Then, once we beat Sin, we're coming back!"
Yuna will wait to see the pyreflies until she has Tidus with her. She sets up camp for the night and sleeps. A noise suddenly in the night wakes her up.
"Who's there?" she asks frightened.
"Yuna why didn't you ask us to come with you? We would've come along." Lulu states.
Yuna is relieved it's just her friends. "I didn't want to bother you guys. Besides I thought you wouldn't let me go. You would have told me to try to forget him because he's not out here because he's gone. But I don't believe that. He's out here somewhere and I intend to find him."
"We would've come along anyway. We know you only do things that you know are right. You don't do anything before thinking it through." Lulu is in big sister mode.
"Thank you Lulu for everything. And thank the rest of you too for coming with me."
"No prob." Rikku laughs. "If we weren't doing anything it would eventually get boring but now it won't. We're gonna find Tidus."
"We will I know it." Yuna whispers more to herself than to the others.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tidus left Djose at dawn. After walking half of Mushroom Rock Road Tidus had the sudden urge to go back to Djose. He went at a run. When he arrived he found out that a girl had been asking about him. Yuna he figured. "Where did she go?" he asked. "Um…Let's see…I think she was going to the Moonflow then onto Macalania…But I'm not sure." The old priest said. "Yeah uh thanks." Tidus said shaking his head. The Moonflow he was going to go there at night with Yuna one day.
He started out on the path hopefully following in Yuna's footsteps. Walking fast he thought he might catch up with her but to his dismay he never did. She was always a step ahead of him or on an entirely different route. He didn't give up though. Nothing could make him stop. He was going to find her if it killed him. He needed her now just like he needed the air to breath. She was a mandatory thing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Although their reasons for coming were different than they told Yuna no one said anything otherwise. They knew Yuna wouldn't do anything that would get her in trouble but they didn't think her making this journey at this time was the right thing to do. They followed her to try to convince her that she should return to Besaid. She needed a rest from all the stress she had. A good rest would help her and then after that she could return to finding Tidus. If he was even out there. None of them were sure if Tidus was really alive. They knew Yuna believed he was but that could have just been because she was so much in love with him.
"Yunie why do you think Tidus is out there somewhere?" Rikku asked quietly.
"I just know he is. I can feel it. I'm going to find him." Yuna responded.
"Good because I want him to be out there too. I'll help you search for him as long as you want."
Rikku was the only one who went to find to Yuna to help her. She believed that Yuna should do whatever she wanted not what the people wanted. Kimahri wanted Yuna to take a well-deserved break. Her life meant a lot to him he didn't want to see her in so much pain and stress. Lulu and Wakka were also concerned about Yuna health. They all wanted her to understand this but they figured she wouldn't not just yet.
Another factor that worried them was would Yuna be safe traveling among the masses. She was a big figure in society now that Sin was defeated. People might bother her. Others may hate her for ruining the old religion. The Yevon priests said they thanked her for defeating Sin but did they really mean it. She had stopped their religion from prospering; she had people stop believing in them. The people no longer treated them as if they were gods themselves. All these aspects kept Lulu, Wakka, and Kimahri from putting all their faith in finding Tidus.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everywhere Tidus went that day there were people celebrating. How could everyone be so happy when he was miserable and lost. Lost in more ways then one. First off he didn't know where he was he had never been to this area of Spira before and didn't even know how he ended up here. Second his hope was lost. His hope that he would see Yuna again. She shouldn't have been so hard to find. Maybe she didn't want to be found or maybe something else had happened. He didn't know. He stopped a couple people the way to Luca he figured that everyone knew the way there. Alas he had no luck no one was willing to stop celebrating to give directions. This made him laughed he had helped defeat Sin which in turn caused all this celebrating and because of this celebrating he had help make he couldn't get directions to Luca. "That's the last time I help defeat Sin," he thought. He started walking away from the town and through a mountain pass he had to go somewhere he couldn't just sit around. He had to find Yuna or someone who knew where Yuna was.
