Chapter 11: Not So Perfect
Rikku followed Paine down the hallway.She was tired, her body was aching and she hadn't had any sleep...not like she could.
She brought her hands up to her temples and slowly rubbed them in small circles. Her head was killing her and she couldn't stand it.
It felt like it was full and ready to burst and there was no way to release it.
It was just going to explode...BOOM! Gray matter everywhere, dripping and clutched to the walls.
Rikku chuckled at her own mental image of Paine knee deep in brain juice.
Paine glanced behind and gave her a skeptical look but Rikku just brushed her off.
"My feet weigh a ton", she said softly with a groan.
It was Paine's turn to chuckle, "You'll get use to it...again."
Rikku stuck her tongue out at Paine's back.
"I saw that! The walls reflect!"
Rikku's tongue zipped back into her mouth with a small, wet 'pop'.
"Where are we going again?",Rikku asked as she followed Paine up a small set of stairs into a room she had never seen before.
The room was around the size of her living room back home. The floor was a hard wood and the walls where red.
There was a large oval table in the center with chairs placed around them all.
Saja and Giha were already seated.
"Color me confused! What's going on?",Rikku asked.
Paine walked around to the head seat and sat down, inviting Rikku to do the same.
"I just got a call from our employer,before you called me...",Paine began.
"They asked me on my progress, and when I told them we had gathered the third gem they told me that was what they need,that they had the last two. They even sent me coordinates on where to deliver them.",Paine finished.
"Ok?",Rikku said, dragging the 'O'.
"What does that have to do with me? We have something else to handle, like finding out what the hell a huge hole is doing in my room!",She continued.
Paine sighed.
"That will have to wait, we have to deliver these gems, I just thought you would all like to know that we wouldn't have to go searching for any more gems.",Paine lied back in her chair, she looked exhausted.
Giha grunted and walked out,followed by Saja.
Rikku got up and trudged back slowly to her room.
She shut the door and her eyes landed on the hole again.
"Blasted thing!",She yelled at the hole.
"I'll find out what your doing here!",She said triumphantly.
"Besides, I've been following orders so much I think I deserve a little mystery to get into."
~-~-~
Tidus lied on the bed, looking at the ceiling.
His mind replayed what happened back at the house.
He hadn't said anything to Lulu or Wakka when he got there,he just parked the bike and went into one of the rooms.
How could Yuna do that to him? Had he missed something? Did he really get so caught up in hi own little world that She could have done something like that to him...obviously.
He rolled over onto his side and let out a frustrated growl.
Now he had to find Rikku!
It shouldn't be that hard right? I mean...it's like finding a needle in a haystack...great.
Where ever she was, what was she doing? Did she hate him? He did see her wear the necklace he had given to her...she had shone it to him on the dock that night, the last time he had seen her.
He sat up, eyes wide, mouth open.
She was wearing his necklace...which means...
He jumped out of bed and ran as fast as he could to the bridge.
~-~-~
Rikku knelt beside the hole, tongue out, deep in thought.
"hmm...Ok Mr.hole...tell me your secrets",She said softly and climbed through.
She hugged her knees together.
"Well...it's cramped and dark." She concluded.
Carefully she lifted her head,but to her surprise she didn't bump her head.
There was space. She looked up and carefully reached out a hand.
It was a tunnel,going up.
She stood up, it was a tight squeeze but she could actually make it.
She craned her fingers and scratched at the tunnel until she found little groove marks.
"Wow...how convenient",She whispered.
She stuck her fingers halfway inside the groove marks and pulled herself up with all her strength.
As she hung on she found another groove mark a little ways above that one and pulled her self up again.
About thirty groove marks later it began to get lighter.
Above her head small rays of light poured in.
Her arm were burning and she didn't know how much more of it she could take.
She put her feet in two groove marks to free her hands.
There was a hole above her head,but it w as blocked by a plank of wood.
Light was shining through the cracks between the wood.
She rubbed her hands together, took a deep breath and pushed with all of her might.
The wood lifted,but it became to heavy and it dropped with a 'clunk'.
Rikku let out a frustrated sigh and let her arms drop to her sides.
With another deep breath she tried again.
She lifted herself up with her feet and used her back to help push up the heavy plank of wood.
With a small 'pop', the wood lifted off and she threw it to the side.
The sound of glass shattering filled Rikku's ears.
She hoisted herself up from the hole.
Glass covered the floor in large pieces.
The hole had been covered by a dresser!
Rikku knelt down and picked up a larger piece of glass.
It had come from a picture frame.
Rikku stood again and looked at her surrounding.
She was in a small room, about the size of Rikku's room.
There was a small bed pushed up against the east wall.
A mirror hung on the wall opposite of the bed and a smaller table was next to the head of the bed.
It was a bedroom.
Rikku herd a small click and spun around.
"What the hell...?"
-~-~-~-
Tidus jumped down the stairs to the bridge, where Lulu was standing next to the navigation globe and Wakka was sitting in a chair by the control panel.
"I know how to find Rikku!", Tidus said, excited and out of breath.
Lulu gave him an odd look,"What do you mean?",She asked.
Tidus put his hands on Lulu's shoulders.
"I gave Rikku a necklace for her birthday.I got that necklace from a mage,I had to special order it, I picked it up that day...",With his excitement he started to ramble.
Lulu gave sigh.
"Start over...from the start!",She said firmly.
Tidus took a deep breath.
"A month before Rikku's birthday I began to wonder what to get her.I was flipping through a newspaper and saw an add in the paper,
A mage was selling soul necklaces...",He began.
Lulu nodded, waiting for him to continue.
"I went down the next day and got some information on it from the mage.
She said that a soul necklace was something you gave to someone you cared about.She read my aura and,when I gave her a picture of Rikku, she read what she could pick up of Rikku's aura.
The mage said that my soul color was blue, and Rikku's green.
She had those two colors installed into a heart shaped necklace with an inscription of my choice on the back.",He said excitedly.
"Yeah, and how will that help us find Rikku?",Lulu asked, obviously lost.
"The mage got all weird after she read Rikku's aura and insisted to put a spell on the necklace. She said that I could find her if I ever lost her as long as she was wearing the necklace!",Tidus finished.
"How are you suppose to find her? It doesn't make any sense!",Lulu insisted frustratedly.
"With this!",He held a small blue ring under her nose.
"It will turn green when ever the necklace is around! I can't believe I just remembered I had this! I'm such an idiot!",He shouted, half excitedly half seriously.
"It's blue.",Wakka said, looking down at the ring.
"Yeah...I know, that's the only hitch, We might have to circle the globe 'til it turns green.",Tidus said sullenly.
Lulu shook her head.
"Or we could find the mage who cast the spell, get her to cast the same spell on our tracking system.",She said plainly.
"Or we could do that.",Tidus said with a smile.
They had a plan, They where one step closer to Rikku.
