Chapter 1

Tidus ran ahead again as usual, his blonde hair blowing slightly in the wind. They had made it as far as Guadosalam and were now crossing the Thunder Plains. Tidus stopped and looked back "Hey Rikku!" he yelled over a loud clap of thunder "What's wrong? Still scared?" He then smiled. The only reply he received was a scream that escaped the young Al bhed as she ran for the nearest lightning tower. Tidus felt bad for her, but could not help but laugh.

Rikku whimpered and curled up at the base of the tower. She snuck a look at her companions, Tidus was laughing, the others looked slightly annoyed. She sighed and stood up, but another clap of thunder sent her back to the ground again screaming.

"Hey, you're not looking so well ya?" She heard Wakka say.

"Clueless as usual..." Lulu commented. "Rikku, we really must continue now"

Rikku nodded and stood once more. The thunder clapped again, this time much louder. Rikku soon found herself gripping the arm of the nearest person to her. Her eyes were clamped shut and she was whimpering again. The thunder clapped again and Rikku's grip tightened.

"The storm is getting worse" She heard the person she was gripping say. "We should cross quickly."

Rikku opened her eyes and looked up to see Auron looking down at her. "Would you mind letting go." He said quickly. Rikku nodded and released his arm, then watched him walk away. She then looked at the ground blushing, the storm forgotten for the moment. Another crash of thunder brought her back to reality and she noticed that she had fell behind. She ran to catch up, but slipped and fell into Kimahri.

"Kimahri think that Rikku should watch where she go." He said slowly as he helped her up. Yuna then walked over to her cousin's side.

"You ok?" She asked timidly. Rikku nodded, this caused Yuna to smile.

Rikku sat on the floor in the travel agency. She had nearly been made to cross the Thunder Plains all at once, but somehow she had convinced them to stop, if only for a few minutes. She sat there, remembering the time at the Moonflow, the conversation she had accidentally overheard. Something was going to happen, she could feel it.

She looked up when she heard someone shut the door. But whoever it was had already went outside.

He walked around for a moment, replaying the conversation in his mind over and over. "Can I really change the past?" He thought, "No, what's done is done." He wasn't sure anymore though, he had given it a lot of thought and every solution had lead to new questions and more confusion.

He watched as a flash of lightning lit up the sky, then decided that it was finally time to make the young Al bhed move, it was time to leave.
