I'm glad so many of you like my fic. Well here's the latest installment.
My True Feelings
We had a plan of attack. We were going to circle around Sin and attack its fins first. Once we weakened them we'd use the main artillery gun on the airship to destroy the fins. Sounded like the best we could come up with.
Ever since we defeated Yunalesca my thoughts have changed a lot. I mean I had always liked Rikku and we did share a great moment together on Gagazet but right now I'm not so sure I should have done it. I was having my doubts about the whole thing.
I was tied between two women, Yuna and Rikku. I cleared my mind as best I could as everyone marched to the deck to battle Sin's fins.
The beast was much larger than the last time I saw it, it seemed. We flew in close to it and began to launch attacks at it. Shooting it was difficult as it was still far away from the ship. The fin itself didn't have much of a defense for us and eventually it began to bleed from the looks of it. The ship turned to face it and then we all felt something happen to the ship itself. In an instant two giant bolts of electricity shot straight at the joint of the fin, severing it from Sin.
"That wasn't too hard, ya?" Wakka said. The ship turned towards the other fin now and we had to do the same thing. Again the fin barely dealt any real damage to any of us and then the ship fired at it and severed this fin. It seemed to be working but Tidus noticed something on its body.
"Something's down there! We should fire at it!" he suggested. The intercom system was still set up on the deck so Cid heard him loud and clear, however there was a problem.
"The gun's out of power! We need time to recharge it!" Cid shouted to us.
"No time for that! I suggest we all just go down there and attack it ourselves." Tidus told us.
"It's never a dull day with you!" Lulu told him as she jumped off the ship right onto Sin's back. Wow, that woman is something.
"I guess you won't need this anymore Yuna!" Tidus said holding up this sphere to her and tossing off the side of the ship. I had no idea what was on it though. Eventually we all jumped off. I was the last one.
What was in front of us now was this very large Sinspawn that was protected by this other creature in front of it.
"This thing it in the way!" I exclaimed.
"Then we'd best remove it!" Auron shouted lifting his left arm from his jacket and striking the creature with a deft downward strike from his weapon.
Auron was sure a powerful man for such and old guy. My weapon didn't seem as massive but it did its toll on whatever creature was blocking us.
Eventually this creature died but now we had this other beast to deal with. It opened its shell and then breathed this toxic fume at all of us.
It made me feel lightheaded and kinda sleepy. I tried my best but couldn't fight back the urge to sleep. I didn't dream at all while I slept but I woke up back on the airship. Nobody was in the room I was in though. It looked like the room I was assigned to on the ship.
"What happened?" I asked aloud. As if on cue Lulu walked into the room.
"How are you feeling?" she asked me.
"Fine I guess. What happened?"
"While you were out we managed to weaken Sin. It is now over Bevelle. We plan to go there now." She told me.
"You know something? You're more caring than your appearance shows." I told her out of the blue.
"I'm going to take that as a compliment." She told me.
"Where's Rikku?" I asked her.
"She's on the deck watching the sky. Why?"
"I've been wanting to tell her something, but it's gonna be hurtful."
"Well what are you going to tell her?"
I told Lulu what I wanted to say. I basically wanted to let Rikku know that I really only wanted a friendship with her and not something more because I basically don't think it's the right time for all of this. Plus I don't know how to treat a person in a world I don't remember too much.
"Well it seems that you've thought this through. I do agree with you that it isn't a great time to think about love, however this news will most likely hurt Rikku and we don't want that to happen. Can't this wait until we defeat Sin?" Lulu asked me.
"Well I think if I wait until we beat Sin and everyone is happy I'd rather not upset her that soon. I know it's my fault for doing this to her in the first place but I have to do something or else it will tear me up inside."
"Well go talk to her." She said.
I left the room and ran down over to the deck elevator and took it up. She was sitting there with her hair down again like before.
I walked over to her and sat behind her back to back.
"We're gonna fight Sin soon." She said.
"I know."
"You sound depressed." She told me.
I sighed heavily. "I've been meaning to tell you something."
"What is it?"
"I'm not ready to be your lover. I know we really connected on Gagazet but...this is too hard." I said.
"I figured you weren't ready." She said.
"I'm sorry."
"Don't be. I mean you still like behind around me, ya know? And who knows, maybe one day we'll be together." She told me. She was taking this better than I had imagined.
"I do like being around you. You're the first Al Bhed I ever remember knowing." I told her. Even though I couldn't see her face I knew she smiled at that moment.
"Look up ahead." She requested.
I stood and sat down next to her. In the distance was Bevelle and Sin was perched atop a large building. It seemed the end of the journey was near. The plan was to enter Sin and kill Yu Yevon. Kill the man to summon Sin in the first place.
Eventually the rest of the group got on the deck and Rikku and I stood up. She put her hair back up as we approached the large blue portal near Sin's gaping mouth. Entering felt very strange and then we were in a different sky. Dark clouds like at sunset and pyreflies everywhere.
"Where these all the people Sin has killed?" I asked.
Nobody answered. I didn't blame them. Rikku kinda jumped around seeing such a pretty sight. It ended once the pyreflies turned to fire and then this large eye appeared in front of us. Then a familiar laugh echoed through the entire area as flames surrounded us.
None of us were burned but it was weird to experience that. We got off the ship and were in this foggy sea. It felt sad being here. I mean we had only just set foot here and already we were becoming depressed.
"Are we inside Sin?" Rikku asked.
"I think we're inside its mind." I said to everyone still freaked out.
"We have to continue. We're so close." Tidus said running forward.
It was difficult to navigate this place but eventually we found this set of stairs leading to this large platform. Standing there was a familiar figure.
"Seymour?" Tidus shouted amazed as everyone was that the bastard was still alive.
"Didn't we kill you enough already?" I asked him.
"I have been chosen by Sin. I have become immortal!" he proclaimed to his own delight.
"Sin just absorbed you." Tidus told him.
"I will learn to conquer it! I have all the time in the world!" he said becoming full of himself.
"You won't get away with it." Tidus told him again.
"I shall finally do away with all of you!" he said transforming his body into this translucent being with four wheels around him.
"Shinn, a little help?" Wakka asked as he got ready.
I used Scan on him. "Seymour Omnis. No weakness. Draws power from the four wheels surrounding him. Will use Ultima occasionally." The scan showed me.
"Seek all the knowledge you wish about me! It will do you no good!" Seymour bellowed in his deformed voice.
"You talk too much!" Lulu shouted sending a giant glacier of ice at him.
He then began to use Fire on us. It hit me first but it was different than the last time he burnt me. This was much stronger fire, something called Firaga.
This burnt my body tremendously and it hurt to even breathe in the smoke from the flames. Yuna quickly healed me with her magic and I felt partially fine.
"Yuna, summon something!" Tidus shouted to his summoner.
"Here goes!" she signaled sending her hand into the air as this large chain came from the sky and pulled something out of the ground.
I knew all too well what that was.
Soon enough the ugly body of Anima was before us. It roared and looked at Seymour with menace, more menace than I thought something like that could produce.
"So you too will go against me?" Seymour asked his mother. It was truly something. First his mother becomes an embodiment of darkness and now Seymour is like an embodiment of sorrow and suffering almost.
Anima's eye began to glow and in one flash Seymour was dealt a tremendous amount of pain.
"So be it!" he said sending a large green blast at Anima. Anima survived but barely from the looks of it. However the beast seemed angrier than ever. Even with Anima on our side I was still scared to death of the creature.
Seymour was brought into the ground with his four wheels and then we could only hear the screams from Anima as Seymour suddenly appeared from the sky and his body began to break apart.
Soon his humanly form was kneeling before us.
"Yuna!"
She performed the sending on him finally and he was off to the farplane where he could no longer bother anyone again.
"Finally! I was starting to think that guy was invincible, ya?" Wakka said huffing from all the work done.
"We still have a ways to go!" Auron said heading into a white doorway before us.
I entered after him and Kimarhi followed me. Looks like this is still far from over.
