Dream Two- At Dawn
" We're going on a trip, Dawn. "
The big, puppy blue eyes of the little boy were filled with joy and excitment at that mention. He smiled, his blond hair falling back and forth as he jumped.
" A trip? Where we goin', mum?? "
Yuna smiled and passed a hand in the hair of her little Dawn. Two years old, as energetic as any child of that age would be.
" We're going on a pilgrimage, to explore all of Spira. "
Dawn clapped his hands at that mention, and innocently asked:
" Like when you were with daddy??"
Sadness covered Yuna's eyes, but she kept smiling and reply softly, almost in a whisper:
" Yes, like when I was with your daddy. "
The boy suddently ran to his room and get back with a plushtoy of a chocobo.
" Can I bring lil' Smush? " he said, showing the plush to his mother.
" Of course, Dawnie! "
A enormous smile appeared on Dawn's face. Yuna bent on her knees, hugged him and said:
" Now, go play in Lulu's house. I'll get our luggages done and we'll leave at dawn, okay? "
" 'kay, mum! " said the little thing before he ran to the door, dissapearing in a instant.
Yuna stand up and get to her room. Yes, Rikku had persuaded her to do the touristic guide, but she wanted to start with her son alone. She just didn't seen herself cranking in tears before strangers. And she wouldn't be so alone, for Rikku and Kimahri would be with her. And Dawn would be here, too.
Dawn. Her pround and joy. Her only momento of Tidus. When she learned she was pregnant, two years ago, she didn't believe it at first. It was one week after Sin was vanquished, and everything was crawling before her, it seems.
And then, Dawn arrived in her life.
He was the exact image of Tidus. Same hair, same eyes, and a cheerful way she cherished so much. She told him about his father a lot, about the pilgrimage and Sin, before bedtime. As time passed, he always wanted more. Now, he know the stories as well as Yuna...and maybe even better.
" I wish you could see him, Tidus. " she muttered.
She took a bunch of clothes and packed them up. She also brought money. Finally, she stand before a green chest of wood, and open it slowly.
There were her staff and her Summoner's outfit. She hadn't touch them since the last battle with Sin. For the past two years, she've been training in black magic with Lulu, since her summons were all sent to the Farplane. She was doing pretty good by now, and hadn't forgot her white spells as well.
She sighs, and take her staff out of the chest with one hand, looking at it with apprehention and sadness. Yes, she would need it.

" Be careful on the road, okay? " said Lulu.
" Don't worry, we'll do just fine. " replied Yuna.
Lulu nodded and bent to see Dawn. She place her hand on his shoulder and said, with a piece of amusement on her eyes:
" I want you to protect your mother, okay? This might come in handy, but be really careful with it, you hear? "
Lulu stand up and do some moves with her arms, the last being the pray of Yevon. A golden light glowed on her hands. She gently touched Smush the plush chocobo, making it glow too.
" There. Some black and white spells are hidden in your little doll. Whenever you're in danger, just wish something really bad will happen to the monsters, and you'll be safe! "
" Yep! " nodded Dawn, happy as ever.
Lulu whispered to Yuna:
" You have nothing to fear. A Reflect spell is permenantly cast on him, so he can't hurt himself. Don't forget to take Smush out of his hand before recovering him, thought! "
" Thanx, Lulu! " laughed Yuna. " Come on Dawnie, we're going! "
Dawn farewelled Lulu and followed his mother on the road to the port of Besaid, excitment filled on his face, looking to every dark corner of the road. They embark on the next boat that departed for Kilika. And thus their journey began.
