Chapter 3- Wishing against hope
-
(Tidus POV)
-
I stare intently at the invisible farplane wall. It glowed a pale orange I am sure of it. What does this mean? Is it possible that I can finally make my way to Yuna? Yuna... I sigh inwardly thinking of how she must be feeling. I miss her so much. But no, I need to think positive; I may have finally found a way to make it back to her.
I turn to Auron and silently proclaim, "Tell me you saw that too. You saw the wall glow, right?"
I watch Auron as he walks to stand in front of me.
"I do not understand why you are so happy, Tidus. You understand what this means, right? You have just broken the balance between Spira and the farplane itself. Yes, you may be able to see Yuna again, but is it worth risking her life along with everyone else's? Auron dejectedly asks.
I look at Auron with a serious expression on my face. "What do you mean!" I bite out. "How did I put her in danger or anyone else for that matter?"
Auron turns and has his back to me; I stare at his back almost as if it could melt like ice.
"You do know that now that the farplane balance has been broken, the undead can escape, and travel freely through out Spira. Seymour will once again lay claim to Guadosalam, and Yevonites will surely try to rise to power again." Auron sourly spits out.
I look up, a befallen expression upon my face. "No, I won't let it happen!
For the first time since the beginning of the conversation, Jecht and Braska approach.
"Surely you would like to see my daughter again, and I believe that you, young man, are truly brave, I just hope you understand the circumstances." Braska calmly states.
"And what if he doesn't, he'll probably cry, cry, cry that's all he's really good for." Jecht responds.
"No, I won't cry, I love Yuna, and I will do anything in my power to get to her, even if that means battling the undead." I proclaim.

(Yuna's POV)
-The next morning-
I wake up and clamber out of bed. I lazily look out the window and notice it's a new day, and a beautiful one at that. I just wish that you were here with me. But no, I need to get over this. One day I will feel full of joy instead of pain and sorrow.
I am jolted out of my thoughts as Rikku comes into the room.
"Yunie, I am leaving today to help my brother form the Gullwings. Are you absolutely positive you don't want to join? Think of all the adventures we will have! Just like the good old times! "I don't think so Rikku, I just want to lay low for a while." I state.
Rikku turns around and heads toward the doorway, but stops before completely leaving the room. "Yunie, I promise I will come visit." Rikku spoke so softly I could hardly hear her, and with that, she headed out the door and stood before the airship that landed not too long ago.
I too walk out of my room to see to Rikku's depart. I stare at the airship with great interest. On the very top a seagull is perched with its wings stretched out afar.

"Yuna, there are fiends showing up heavier then ever, ya? What are we going to do?" Wakka asks concerned.
"I don't know, but--"
I get caught off at the sound of a whistle. I look at Wakka with an "I'll be right back" expression, and began to run hurriedly to the shoreline banks.
It's him! It has to be! He is the one whistling, and has finally returned to me! I can't wait to--"
My thoughts immediately jumble. No, it's not Tidus. It's just an airship. Wait an airship? Rikku's back!
I hear footsteps from behind me and turn to see Wakka standing with a confused expression.
"Where'd you go to in a hurry, ya?"
"Umm-"
I begin to think of an excuse for hiding my disappointment in not seeing Tidus.
"Rikku! She's returned!"
Suddenly the airship lands in the water, and Rikku comes bolting out of the airship door. "Yunie! Yunie! You'll never believe what I found!" She begins to exclaim excitedly.
"What did you find Rikku." I calmly ask.
"A sphere, well actually Kimahri found it, on top of Mount Gagazet but guess what? It's a sphere of you know who!"
I gasp, and stare intently at the shimmering sphere Rikku holds in her hand.
"Well, what are we waiting for, let's watch it!" I excitedly state.

(Sphere Movie)
-
A young man, presumably Tidus, is seen inside of a jail cell. He begins to yell;
"Get me out! I have to save the summoner! If she were your girl what would you have done! Please... I have to save Lenne!"
The sphere screen turns black, and then new images appear.
The same young man is seen walking up a platform and stopping in front of a large machina.
"You know, your all I can count on to save Lenne."

(Yuna's POV)
I gasp loudly after finishing the sphere. That was the same exact thing as in my dream. All of it! I am so confused! What is happening? I am beginning to want to know who Lenne is now more then ever.
Quiet footsteps awaken me from my eternal questionings.
"Well, that was interesting, it looks like him, though some things are a little off." Lulu states.
"Everyone, there is something I want to tell you." I begin to tell my story of how the sphere is exactly like my dream.
I just finished telling my story, when I looked up to Rikku.
"Rikku, do you think it's too late to join you up on your offer?"
Rikku looks at me confused, but I continue talking to cut off the tirade of confused questions.
"You know, to join the Gullwings?"
"Of course! But.. there are a few things we need to do first." -
Authors note: Well things are going to start picking up from here. Hehe finally got the main story line started. Well, guess this is it for this chapter.
Actually, one more thing: Sorry I was so late to update, it's just that I have had a lot of work to do. I will try to be more frequent with updates now.
