"Where are we?" the beautiful black-haired goth asked her friend. Yuna led her away from the rest of the group, and they had been wandering the halls for quite some time. They had not, however, come across any enemies on their search for Cid.

"We're lost." the usually elegant white mage replied. She could feel despair ebbing at her heart, and as best as she tried to keep her companion unaware of her sadness, she could not hide it from Lulu. Yuna had just wanted a woman-to-woman talk with her trusted friend, and foolishly asked Lulu to follow her. Now they didn't know where they were, because of her. She had lost Tidus before, and now Yuna had endangered Lulu's life. . 'Damn you' Yuna scolded herself. 'You've become such a fool ever since Tidus left, you can't even make simple obvious decisions without him!' she mentally yelled at herself

"Sorry, Lu."

"What for?"

"Getting us lost, at such an important time. We're lost in a dangerous place and we can't e others"

Lulu smirked slightly. She understood her friend only had good intentions. The black mage looked into Yuna's eyes. They were pure, as always, but this time also showed pain. Yuna, who brought the Eternal Calm to Spira, could never have peace. Lulu wanted very badly to give her friend the peace she deserved so much. "Yuna," she started, suddenly feeling a slight loss of words. "Yuna, I-"

"HEY gals! Long time no see, huh?!" yelled a cheerful voice.

Yuna gasped. She looked up to see the man who called out to her. Her heart skipped a beat.

"Tidus?!"

"Hey Yuna, how've you been? Miss me?" the blonde said in a happy tone of voice. He didn't act like it was at all odd to reunite with Yuna in this place, under these circumstances.

"Tidus I've missed you too much...." the young woman said, her eyes becoming watery. She slowly stepped forward to meet her love, as though she was dreaming.

"Sorry I sorta left you Yuna, I hope I can make it up to you," he said, his arms open wide.

"Oh, Tidus." cried Yuna as she warmly embraced her love. She was now crying a river of joy. She just couldn't believe she'd ever be in his arms ever again. He hugged her tight, and she wrapped her arms around his waist. She buried her face in his shoulder.

"Oh, Tidus, I love you."

"I love you too, Yuna," he whispered into his ear. "But there's some unfinished business I forgot to take care of."

"What do you mean, Tidus?"

"Sorry, Yuna." And with that, Tidus, the once star of the Zanarkand Abes, guardian to summoner Yuna, shoved the woman who loved him up against the wall, and watched as she fell to the ground

"Hey!" Lulu yelled, rushing to confront Tidus, "What the hell was that for?!"

Yuna looked up at Tidus. This couldn't be the man she loved. His eyes, normally beaming with energy, were now hollow and emotionless.

Tidus just chuckled. He reached behind him and slowly drew the Caladbolg out. He laughed and pointed his blade at Yuna. "You should die. Look at yourself, you pathetic wrench. "

"THUNDAGA!" Lulu yelled. Her eyes narrowed on Tidus as he jumped back, easily dodging the attack. His reflexes were faster than they ever were. She'd make him pay for hurting Yuna like he just did. She'd make him pay dearly.

"Tidus." Yuna said under her breath. Her heart was aching, begging for release from this agony. Fate was teasing her, allowing her to see her love, to hug him but than have him turn on her.

"Yuna that's not the Tidus you know!" the black mage tried to tell Yuna, trying to get her to pick herself up. Lulu didn't take her furious gaze off Tidus.

"Is this my punishment for waiting so long, longing for his return?" Yuna said under her breath, weeping.

"HaHaHaHaHa!" laughed Tidus. "Foolish little girl, that's what you are!"

"How dare you call her that?! She is not a foolish girl!" Lulu fiercely yelled at Tidus, casting Waterga on him. Again, he jumped to safety.

"Get out of the way you dirty whore, this is between Yuna and me!" Tidus commanded, anger burning in his eyes. He leapt forward, and almost instantly was right in front of Lulu. He swung his blade swiftly, far before she had time to move.

Lulu flinched. She hadn't died yet? She slowly opened her eyes, to see the green and gold sword of Tidus only inches away from her face. He had stopped just before he hit her, no wait, rather something had stopped him.

"Lu, are you okay?!" the white mage called to her friend. The summoner slowly got back on her feet. Yuna winced slightly, straining to keep the Protect spell strong enough to hold back Tidus's furious blade. She was struggling; he was stronger than ever.

Lulu looked at Tidus, as he pushed his sword forward, fighting against Yuna's Protect. He was not a human. The darkness in his eyes made it obvious they were fighting a fiend. Yes, they were fighting a fiend that only looked like Tidus. She would not hold back against a mere fiend.

"Doublecast; FLARE!" intense energy rose from the ground and burned Tidus, blackening his flesh, knocking him back a few paces. Tidus was smoking, but not injured. This fiend was strong.

"Cast, HOLY!" the white mage yelled, sacred white energy erupting forth from her Nirvana, attacking the fiend. The spell ravaged his body, piercing its soul.

"You... I'll KILL YOU!" the fiend roared in rage. It charged towards the two women, raising it's blade to kill them.

Yuna and Lulu stood side by side. Their friendship feeding their magical powers, Lulu's eyes resonated a deep purple, while Yuna's glowed a bright white.

"You're not the man I love," Yuna convinced herself. "Tidus would never hurt me or anyone I care about!"

"Go to hell." was all the black mage had to say.

Joining hands and powers, they bonded white magic with black magic to form one powerful attack.

Their voices rang out in unison:

"CAST: HOLY ULTIMA!"

There was a blinding explosion of pure power. The entire school shook as the enormous attack flew towards the fiend. It connected, and a split second later, Tidus screamed in agony. He screamed shrilly as the attack literally tore him apart, ripping his flesh and tearing his body. The attack overwhelmed him, and he was thrown backwards, flying through the air. His charred body was propelled down the hall and through a solid marble wall.

Yuna and Lulu slowly walked towards him. When they reached his horribly mangled body, they cast their looks down at him. The attack had melted away his skin, or rather, his outer layer of skin. Beneath they layer of Tidus's tan skin lie a dark, demon-like skin. The fiend reached up, trying to grab one of the women, in a feeble attempt to harm them. Lulu spat onto the fiend's face, while Yuna kicked it in it's rib cage.

"You tried to impersonate the one that I love most to catch me off guard. You're lower the filth." Yuna spat, suddenly uncharacteristically angry. This monster tried to confuse her, make her lose hope, but Yuna would remain strong. She knew, deep down inside her, the man she loved would return to her.

The fiend croaked, uttered something under its breath that sounded like "Die!" and than, perished.

"Come on, Yuna," Lulu said, trying to sound warm and friendly, unlike her usual calm, cool tone. "I think I recognize that hallway, I might know where we are."

"Thanks, Lu, for everything." Yuna sobbed, suddenly on the verge of tears. Yuna felt so happy to have a friend like Lulu, who fought along side her in battle, hitting the opponent with all she had for her friend's safety.

The black mage smiled. She admired her friend's honesty; Yuna was always honest about how she felt, in her words and actions. She embraced Yuna in a hug, not only to console her dear friend but to also hide the fact that her eyes were getting watery. Although she was normally in control of her emotions, this was a very emotional moment. After slaying a fiend that looks like the love of your best friends life, seeing her shed so many tears for so many different emotions in such a short time; it wasn't easy, even for Lulu.

"Come on Yuna, let's go."

"Okay"
