This is another chapter of The Most Odd Of Relationships for you. This is a extremely short since in my chapters I like capturing one Main Idea and the Main Idea for this chapter is a short one.
Disclaimer: I do not own Final Fantasy X... 'cept I do wish I Kimahri, Maroda, Isaaru, Pacce, and Auron since they are the coolest characters of FFX! (Hey, Maroda and Pacce are kickass for being so untouched!)
Chapter Four: Cheery vs. Coldness-- Rikku and Auron's Little Argument and Smaller Make-Up (Prologue to the following Chapters.)
"What else must you say?" questioned Auron.
"I think I should thank you... ya know, for not leaving me behind," Rikku said, thankfully and weakly. Thunder growled. "Shutup! I'm tired of you right now!" Rikku attempted to yell. The thunder hushed...
"You're welcome... everyone would have been devastated if you were left and not taken under my wing, anyway," Auron plainly said.
"Are... ... you saying that you did it for everybody else's sake?" Rikku inquired, taking what Auron said the wrong way.
"I never even said anything of the sort," Auron stated, turning his back to Rikku.
"The way you said it sure hinted at that!" Rikku said, trying to let her fury roll through her weak, delicate voice.
"If it sounded that way, it wasn't intended to," Auron replied, keeping his cool.
"Well... I mean, did you do it for me, too?" questioned Rikku. Her life has practically been preserved by Auron, and it would have been selfish for him to do so to receive personal gain; and would have been pointless for him to do it for everyone else's sake and his own. The matters of Rikku's thoughts are hardly explainable, but are just barely understandable even if there is no deep reason for them. She just wanted to know if his efforts had something in it because her life mattered or had some value to someone who she worked side by side with.
"Yes, I did do it for you and your heath," Auron admitted. I wouldn't go out of my way for nothing. Auron told himself.
"... Do ya mean it?" Rikku asked.
Auron simply nodded. Auron felt it was his time to leave, so he exited Rikku's room in the health care department, without a good bye or a farewell or anything to notify Rikku that Auron was exiting. He just left...
Rikku sighed lightly. I wasn't finished yet! Oh well. "Oww," Rikku said aloud. That thingy hurts! Rikku thought, acknowledging the horrible pains through her forehead, caused by the scar there from the lightning. Now she has more horrifying memories to recall every time lightning is to be heard...
--- --- --- --- END OF CHAPTER
Told ya this was to be short. Do not worry, the follow up is fairly lengthy! Slight romance may come in on the next installment. This was also a prologue to the following chapters. (Kind of like a prologue to the rest of the fic.) Speaking of which, the next chapter should be up by like... the 10th of July, 2003 at latest, but most likely it will be here maybe at 1:18 AM tomorrow night. (July 09, 2003... Which is exactly 24 hours from now...) 'Nuff of that! Yall better review! The more reviews I get, the more I write! Hook me up with feedback, people!
