Yuna slowly woke up, rubbing her eyes trying to open them. Still half asleep and squinting, she glanced around where she was. She was no longer in the stadium of Blitzball. She wasn't in the locker rooms. She was...no where.
She felt the same way she did after her first meeting with Shuyin in the Farplane, scared and lonely. This is what she felt when Shuyin disappered and left her in the meadow alone. But Yuna wasn't in a meadow. It was she was in a dark hole,like the ones you fall in and you never stop falling.
But Yuna wasn't falling. She could walk around and feel ground beneath her. Yuna ran around and around, not a single thing came into sight.
"RIKKU? PAINE? BROTHER,BUDDY,SHINRA?!" yelled Yuna,and but her voice lowered into disappointment,"...anybody?"
???:"I'm here..."
"Huh? Who's there?" questioned Yuna. She didn't feel lonely anymore, but now her feelings made her want to be alone.
???:"I'm here...Yuna,"
"Please come out, please. I am so scared, and I need to talk to someone. Where am I? Why am I here? Now... Now that your here, plase show yourself! Please..." she begged.
???:"I'll be right there,"
"Alright,"and then she looked down. Even though she wasn't going to see anything interesting on the ground, she just hung her head down. Did she really want to see who was there with her?
The man came out the distance. Yuna looked up, and she gasped. Her eyes widen. Was this man really him?
It was him.Tidus.
Tidus made a large smile."We are finally together again." He then opened his arms.
Yuna's frown turned into a smile,and without thinking she came running to Tidus. But right before she made it to him,she slowed down. What if she went right through him like before? One of the most devastating moments of her life was when Yuna ran to Tidus for a hug and when right through him like a ghost.
"This is it. He is there for real, or I will go right through him..and this means this isn't a true reunion..." she thought.Yuna set her a small trip,and made herself fall.She fell into Tidus's arm,and her head layed upon Tidus's chest.She didn't go through him.She landed right in his arms.Yuna felt glorious joy inside her heart.
Yuna and Tidus held in an embrace for a long time.Neither one of them wanted to let go.Both wanted to hold onto each other.Forever. Yuna felt her heart grow as she came even closer to Tidus, and he felt the same way. Tidus leaned his head upon Yuna's, and Yuna wrapped her arms around him tightly.
"I've missed you.We have been spaced out from each other for too,too long..."she told him.They both felt the same way...
" I know...I know. But right now, we are together. And I'm going to make this special reunion a long one,"he promised.
"....Thank you,"she said, and their embrace had tightened.
After awhile they finally let go of each other. Yuna sighed, not a sigh of regret or disappointment, but a happy one, kind like a relief sigh.Tidus took her hands.He was about to speak.
"Do you know what happened?" Tidus asked Yuna.
"To tell the truth....no,"she replied.She felt a little embarresed, since of not knowing what happened.
"You were playing Blitzball with your new team. I was amazed to see your skills. And I also saw you attempt to make the-"
Yuna looked down once more."Jecht Shot."
"That's right.I was rooting you on. I was in total suspense if you were going to do it."
Yuna picked up her head and smiled,making small claps.
"Wow...I wish I heard your rooting."she said cheerfully.Then her cheerfulness dropped."But I didn't make the shot.That's when I..."
"That's when you went into a petrife.It's my fault..."
After that,Yuna eyes drew bigger,and her playing face turned curious.
"Your fault? Please don't blame yourself..." she replied to him.
"No,it is my fault. I made you freeze and fall to the bottom of the stadium..." he told her. He knew Yuna wouldn't get it.
"I... I do not understand," she asked. Tidus was right.
"See, I am here with you for a reason. If it wasn't for what I am here to do, we wouldn't be together at this moment! "Tidus explained,raising his voice at the end.
"..Okay. What do you have to do that interfers with me?"
Tidus let go of his grip of Yuna's hands, and began walking around the place."What I am about to say will be confusing.Maybe what your about to see will make what I am about to say more understanding..."
Tidus snapped his fingers and BOOM!
All the darkness disappered.The floor,the sky, everything was visable. But Yuna wasn't in Luca. Basicly not in Spira. She was in....
Tidus's Zanarkand, at his home.
Yuna grabbed Tidus's arms and wrapped her arms around it."Where are we?"she asked.It was hard to keep up with what was happening.
"First Tidus has a job that includes her, and now this bizarre place?"she thought.Tidus released Yuna from his arm,and put his hands on her shoulders.Yuna looked around and clung back onto Tidus.
"Remember we use to talk about where I came from," Tidus began, "the place I was from that shining lights and sky high stars lit up the city all of the time, and I would play for the Abes. If I did, and you would said,'I would cheer until I couldn't cheer anymore!'. Remember that place?"
Yuna thought for a moment,and finally realized what he meant.She said that cheering quote during the conversation in Lake Macalania..right before they had the most romantic moment of their life. Yuna was surprised Tidus remembered that. Yuna finally knew that she was in Tidus's Zanarkand, the one Tidus and Yuna wanted to go to together, the one that never happened. But now they are here, and together. Yuna felt the tears building in her eyes.
"We are in Zanarkand!" she said happily. The tears fell down her cheek and her voice slowed down and gasping filled in her pauses.Tidus wiped her cheek with his fingers.
"Yes. We are finally here. And this time," he said with a laugh, "It isn't just scenery like what Seymour showed us. We are really here. Really!"
Yuna started hopping around. "When do I get to you see you play for the Zanarkand Abes? Now I can cheer until I can't cheer no more!" But after that,she saw Tidus make a sigh and made a serious face. "I'm sorry Yuna,but we aren't here to play blitzball..."
"Okay then..." she said, playing with her fingers. She didn't know what to say after that. Yuna only awaited to hear what Tidus had to say next.
"I am here..to show you your past.What happened when you weren't there to hear it, or just to see what happened to the ones that weren't with you," Tidus explained.He looked quickly at Yuna. "Getting anything I am saying?"
"No.No I am not..." replied Yuna. She put her hand on her heart and closed her eyes. "I am listening..." she said softly.
Tidus nodded. "See,the fayth gave me a chance to see a loved one and show them important things of their Past and Future. And I chose you, Yuna."
Yuna opened her eyes and looked directly at Tidus. "Me?"
"Yes,I chose you,Yuna. I want to show you things you should have seen on your pilgrimage.Things that you should see that happened on your dad's summoning journey.Also-" he then walked over to Yuna, took her hand and cupped them together, and looked right into her eyes. "See why I had no clue about anything in Spira. It is here where Sin took me to Spira...."
"Oh..."Yuna answered. She slowly smiled. "So, I am going to see my Past? You also said I am going to see my future, correct?"
"That's right. You are going to see your future..."he said. Yuna was about to speak when Tidus put his other hand on her mouth. "Sorry, I can't tell you what is going to happen yet."
Yuna pushed away his hand and giggled. "How did you know I was gonna ask that?"
Tidus laughed too. "I just do!"
Yuna ran around, dragging Tidus around with her. She stopped, with a confused look on her face. "Why is no one here?"
Tidus scratched his head. "Well...you see...we have to cross the portal."
Yuna still had the same look on her face.Yuna just nodded and waited for Tidus to talk about this Portal.
"Once we cross the portal we are going to go back to my Zanarkand, before Sin's attack, everything will be moving again.Look,the portal is opening!"and he pointed straight out.A small hole was opening in thin air,and swirling colors of Zanarkand filled the hole.The sounds of thunder and flashing lighting went on a bit in the Portal.Tidus looked at Yuna.
"Are you ready? If you want to back out.." Tidus mentioned.
"No. Now backing out. I want to go, with you now." she said immeaditly. If she turned this adventure down, Tidus would disapper and probubly they would never see each other ever again.
They looked at each,perfectly straight at the eyes.Yuna and Tidus quickly hugged, and at the same time they ran into the portal.
