I only own Shinn. Though I wish I owned Rikku too.
Forget Me Not
Chapter 2, Down With Love
I woke up to a nice gentle breeze. I had only really known such calm winds on the beaches of Bikanel. I stood up gathering my things together and looked out in the horizon. My puffy sleeves and hair blew softly in the wind.
"What a beautiful day!' I said stretching out. I looked around and Shinn was still sleeping. He must be tired. I guess I just have more energy than him.
I decided to walk around this island for a little bit. Maybe Shinn would find me by himself. I don't need him all the time.
I removed my boots and began to walk along the beach. The sand felt so nice on my bare feet. I found this spring in the middle of the small island and sat there for awhile.
"Was it right to come with Shinn? I mean it seems like I'm doing more harm than good. I just wanted to be with him." I said to myself.
I plopped down on the ground and stared at the sky. "Why do I want to be with him? I had more feelings for Tidus than Shinn. Tidus was nicer anyway, but those two weren't that different. I guess since Tidus is gone I'm trying to replace him with Shinn. Oh I don't know!" I groaned from the state of confusion I was putting myself in.
"I guess I'm just expecting too much from the guy for right now. I should take it easy from now on." I told myself making my decision. "And stop talking to yourself!"
"I thought I heard your voice." Somebody behind me called out.
"Oh, hi Shinn. H-how long have you been there?" I asked him feeling my face turn red.
"I came in at 'I should take it easy from now on, and stop talking to yourself!" Shinn said trying to mimic my voice.
"Oh, that's good." I said breathing a sigh of relief.
"You're acting awfully strange."
"Hey, anybody out there!" We heard someone else call out. "We're preparing to leave. Get everything together and let's head on out."
The two of us went back to the ship and soon we were off for Kilika Island. Shinn had never been there before. I've at least seen it once, but the only time he saw it was on that sphere he has.
Walking down to my cabin I noticed one of the passengers leaning with his back against the wall. He wore all black and had a ton of belts on his legs, waist, and arms. The only part of him that wasn't black was his spiky blonde hair. It was almost like a male Lulu.
He never made eye contact with me and it looked like he didn't want to be disturbed from whatever it was he was doing. The large katana on his back bolstered my decision to leave him be.
My cabin was rather small and cozy. I had been working on making another dressphere for myself and managed to make a Warrior. I'd have to show it off sometime, like right now.
It may be just me but I like to immediately try something as soon as I can. I set up a large full body mirror in the room and got out the small sphere.
Changing between my regular little Thief outfit to my Warrior one felt rather warm and it kinda tickled me. When I opened my eyes up I was holding a very long sword in my right hand. I looked to the mirror.
I was now in a red and black outfit with this large headband holding most of my hair back. Long sleeves with red shoulder pads and a black vest that showed the middle of my upper body. The pants were short and stopped just above my knees and then started again going down to my boots. Some skin from my hips and butt were showing but I didn't seem to care, I've seen much worse from some people.
Satisfied with how my costume worked out I changed back into my regular clothes.
"What am I gonna do in Kilika anyway? Maybe I'll find a boat to go to Besaid and visit Yunie if she's there." I thought aloud to myself.
I heard the loud whistle sound signaling we reached our stop at Kilika. I gather my little supplies and placed them in the small packs on my belt. Going up top I saw the small village at the port a couple of yards away.
"Is this Kilika?" Shinn asked standing right next to me.
"Yeah. I haven't been here much. It looks like it was attacked by Sin but it seems it picking up the pace a little bit. With machina they'd be able to build faster." I explained to him.
"Well isn't that what you came along to do?" he asked me.
"What?"
"You said you came along to teach people how to use machina and stuff. Isn't it?"
"Oh of course. Why else would I come with you?" I really wish I hadn't said that. He walked away slowly to the dock. I still sat there feeling terrible about what I just said. "Stupid Rikku."
I noticed that kid in the black and with the large katana walk off the ship and into town. I wonder who he is.
I eventually got off and slumped into town a little depressed. It seems when it's just Shinn and I that we don't seem to see eye to eye. Well I'm sure he probably feels the same way.
I noticed a few people trying to build a bridge but having little trouble keeping one section of wood in place while trying to nail it in. I had just the thing for that.
I dove into the water and swam under the bridge and took out a small device that was just the size of my small palm and it launched two cables in opposite directions that latched onto the ends of the bridge and held it firmly in place while the people nailed it tightly in.
I surfaced and they seemed pretty happy that I helped even with the machina helping me out. It's about time people learned that machina isn't something bad that should be avoided.
"Wow that thing was pretty amazing. What is it?" one of the young workers asked me.
"Well it's just a machina used to help repair things. You can have it if you want." I offered them holding out the device I used.
They took it and were happy with it. Looks like machina use will start to spread around Spira now. Well now that is out of the way I think I'll go find Shinn.
I looked all over the small village. I looked in every shop and pub and came up with no traces of him. Then I spied the temple up in the jungle. Perhaps he went there.
The hike up was refreshing. I was attacked by a few fiends but there was no permanent damage to me. My Warrior skills made the fights a little easier with the added strength.
I walked up the steps towards the former holy place with my sword firmly holstered on my back. It was pretty heavy, I'd have to get used to carrying a large hunk of steel instead of my usual claws or knives.
Shinn was looking out at the vast agriculture in the distance and I walked up next to him quietly and didn't say a word. I didn't want to risk saying the wrong think again.
"New clothes?" he asked surprised.
"I have one of those spheres too. They're called dresspheres and we can change costumes and skill sets with them. I'm a Warrior." I stated proudly.
"You look lovely." He said not turning to me.
"Enjoying this island?" I asked him. He turned towards me and his swirled blue eyes met my green ones.
"I feel bad that it was heavily damaged by Sin, but it is still a beautiful place. I may come back later."
"Later?"
"I was speaking with someone who was going to Besaid and I figured I'd go with him."
"What did he look like?"
"Well he's right behind you so you can ask him yourself." He told me.
I turned around and looked at the person right behind me. He was so close so I jumped and shrieked a little bit.
Well like it? By the way I've begun to write more in Final Fantasy: World so stop by that fic too if you want some cool reading written by me. Reviews are always accepted.
