"Spheres, fears and Alcohol"Sitting in the lodge of the crusaders
Now as many of you know. This could get a little tough from here on, me, being Lahtinah from the outside world, could need all the help one should get. And all knowing, you shall give what one shall receive. At this point, little to nothing can be produced out of my hands at this time. I am soo stuck with ways of returning favours. Especially on time. It's only human right?
Let us hope so!
Settling down to make peace with this bed I was padding down, getting ready to sleep on, T was looking and scratching his head frantically trying to make ways to expressing himself, with out making him self looking distorted. I just carried on; I figured that he was just restless from the lack of sleep that we were about to receive. Then he tapped me on the shoulder as I sat on my bed taking off my now-tormented timberlands. Sighing at the sight they are in. I shook my head in disgust I looked to return his gesture. He sat next to me, and expected the look I gave him which was in no surprise of mine. And he liked it that way. He sighed and waited for him to speak. Obviously something was troubling him. Just what? Was the problem. He held his hands in a respective type clasp and place his elbows on his knees sinking his head lower and lower as each breath took a toll on every thought played. This could take a while. I thought, I decided to clear the air.
"T? Sweetie? Wassup?"
I lay down on my bed like I would usually do. In my top that could almost fall off and my underwear. My jeans were on the floor. Along with me weapon and other things. T? Well he still sat there annoyed and more pissed that he was frustrated…ever! He was humming and haring like a little skool kid, not knowing what sweets to pic in Willy Wonker and the chocolate factory.
"You are going to tell me wether you liked me to know or not right?"
He looked at me all white like. Like he had seen a ghost.
"Look there is only so much I can take of this T, what the hell is going on? This isn't about the blitz thing is it?" Tidus shook his head.
"Riiiiight, well you are sure making me not believe it, if it is something else… you best say it now kid. DO IT"
Big time frustration. He shuddered and pondered on what to say, he obliged to my request and began to open his mouth. But we were interrupted by an ever-growing conversation that was getting louder and louder, two familiar voices were going like the clappers. I tell you now I was not having fun. I got up and t followed like my little shadow. We crept worse than Abe did, on Abe's odyssey. It was classic. So is the game. Lifting the flap to the living quarters… our tent, we saw them two. One woman. And one man. I turned to T, who was only breathing space away from me.
"Is this to do with you?'
He shook his head and shrugged. He looked forward, I did too. The breeze wasn't too nice for me at this time. The woman was concerned with the bringing and the short coming welcome of three foreigners to this out put. Three? Me, T….
"Oh…. MARK!!!"
I shrieked. T looked at me.
"Who?"
"Mark. He's… um,"
The growth of the voices grew much louder. Shouting at each other. Many of the villagers just opened their tent covers briefly looked at the pair and then surrendered back to their tent. It gave the impression that they were used to this thing, or that the fact that Wakka and Lulu was talking in this manner was the complete norm, if it were other wise, that would be a serious concern for them as well. I stopped in my tracks. Remembering what Jecht told me. Then what Lulu said after that was what got me on this errand that night.
"Why did you bring that person to our camp?"
"Lu? I couldn't have let him drown."
Lulu didn't want to explain herself. She was doing this in the best interest of everyone; this was a difficult time for the whole of besaid. With the peril of sin and the pain of others… it was very difficult to say that Lulu had any smile left in her. To be quite honest…. I knew that Lulu and Wakka would get married. I placed a secret bet with T. 50 gill to whom ever is right. Typical. I knew with almost certainty that they would. Giving hints of the next entitlement.
"Let him drown? Didn't you say he could breath under water?"
"Yes…but-"
"Then why not leave him? And what's worse… he disregarded the temple not as a sacred place but a matrimonial war house…. Wakka?!! Do you have anything to show for yourself?"
"Yes…. No…I-"
"And what else?!! You bring the whole of Yuna's casting to the aeon, down, by bringing another to our holding."
Another? I thought and prayed more to their conversation.
"He was a different story… Lu you've got to understand"
"What more do you not understand? As if that boy, whom you show up with, telling me all of which I don't care. But next thing you tell me that, that boy…T…"
"Tidus-"
"TIDUS! You tell me that TIDUS, looks a lot like Chappu?"
SMACK!
"Have you no pride?"
OO did Lulu just slap him? Whoa! We were gob smacked. Not did we know that there were three, but she hit him, and she hit him hard. Harder than what I thought what strength she had. For some one who attacks with dolls and moggles. OUCH!
"Then there is this boy. Mark? Lionhart? And now…. Lahtinah? His so called sister? Shadow? Tidus's twin?"
Lulu came closer making Wakka flinch. It's not that he was afraid of lulu, or that he was a complete baby. But Lulu was right in her own way, to be angry and concerned. It is only in the pure interest of Yuna's safety. I would totally understand where she was coming from.
"You'd better hope that this does not screw up your chances as a guardian. Wakka. Or you could go back to being a serviceman for the temple of Besaid!"
"Lu… You gotta hear me out!"
"No… forget it, enough Wakka!"
With that, the conversation, and Lulu, in her elegant manner, turned and left. Wakka stood there left with unspoken words and a whole lot of troubles on his mind. Weighing as a burden. On his shoulders, his pride and his heart. Nasty if you ask me. Then T and me noticed that he was making his way towards us. At that, T and me scurried like mice, crawling over each other. Not only was that bad for wakka to be put in that situation. Imagine what further damage would be dealt to that which is already done, if he found out that we were there, eves dropping on their conversation. I tripped and fell a lot, T, was panicking trying to decide which position would look more natural. I lay in my bed just in time. Wakka walked in. He looked at us; he could tell straight away that we were trying to hold our embarrassed red faces to a minimum and trying to look natural. He shook his head and jokingly admitted:
"Aah you guys have to do betta 'en that"
Sprung!
We smiled and let out this big whooper laugh. Just what Wakka needed? I had to let go the tension. I knew Wakka wouldn't take it seriously. He let a smile surface, but it did not stay afloat on his lips, it faded and came to a worried and puzzled frown. Oh great now I have two people who have a lot on their mind. Just peachy! I guess they are not used to wearing their mind on their sleeve. I sat up and begun to question the expression on T's face. He looked puzzled as ever.
"What's up with you guys?"
"Huh?"
It seems that T was more obvious than what he bargained for. I was nodding the same expression, further more, I wanted know also what was on T's mind. Before we got interrupted. I looked at Wakka. He was pretty recked up inside. We, me and T, would have made it worse, just making our presence known. But now that we sit amongst him, knowingly what's going on. It made Wakka feel, inconsolable. I felt like I had to make the time to give to Wakka and Tidus. So I left. In that they had sure surprised looks on their faces, watching me rise to my feet. Putting my jeans on and walked out to the dimly lit bonfire. Wakka put his hand on my right shoulder, which made me fall to a sudden halt.
"Ehy? You okay Na-Lah?'
I gave a small gentle nod and place my hands in my pockets and returned to my thoughts whilst walking towards the main gate. After Wakka let go, T resided besides Wakka with a questioningly gaze. They both shrugged at each other. I? On the other hand, I walked onwards towards the ocean. Past the statue. Past the waterfall-like curtains. The swinging silent trees. Passed them, the acres of green sandy coastline. Passed them too. All past that till I was met at the head of a clearing. The sandy beach line. I sat right at the mouth of the shore. Letting the seashore lick my toes as I removed my shoes. For some reason, even though I couldn't see him. I knew that Jecht was there. He knew that I needed guidance from time to time. Sitting there thinking in conversation, as if it were that he could hear me. Holding my knees against my chest. I had come to feel more at peace at night anywhere I Besaid or spira. It was a nice at peace, inner holy feeling.
Back in the tent
Tidus walked back to any bed and sat in thought. He was about to tell me something but I know that even if he was given the chance. He would find it hard to tell. Even if he had been given all the time in the world, it would take that much, to feel comfortable enough to tell, then fall short on words. He sighed. And looked up at Wakka who was smiling.
"You orda tell her you kno dat huh?"
T looked shocked.
"Wha- what do you mean? 'Tell her?' Tell her what?"
At first T's voice sounded almost vulnerable to a pause, then serious at the end. Almost proving Wakka's theory and fact. Tidus had a crush on me; I knew it was there. We all women can see it. Can't we? But though that were true. We don't want it to come true, even though we would want to. To save our selves of whole lotta heartache, we say that it would never happen. And it evolves into normality once again. Well for me? That's what happened. In my way any way. But becides that, I knew it wasn't just that alone. It was confusion, decisions…fear…and problems. For a short space, T and me seemed to drift apart wildly. His problem was I. His recent feelings of …. Well what ever it is that it was. He hasn't told me yet. I had preferred it stayed that way. Yuna. And his father. The contemplations of his life, and anything else in-between. Right now, he wanted two things out of me. A sister-motherly like person. And a girlfriend figure for whom he could turn to for comfort on that side of things. And that's when it stopped.
"Ah, you kno brudduh. You and you girlfriend Na-lah."
"She's not my girlfriend. Wakka. She's just… there!" He held out his hands in his expression.
"Two things. Dere as in 'there' as a friend. Or dere as in 'there' as a distraction and you can't help it?" Wakka folded his arms.
"…Sigh both" T moaned.
"I see. Laughs ah don' worry brudduh, we all been there. Just like me, lu and chappu." Wakka lent back on his hands behind him, using them as a scaffolding to hold him up.
"I saw that Lulu, was mentioning the name Chappu"
"Yeah…" Wakka rubbed the meek dainty handprint of a black mage on his face. "Right before she hit me." T was apologetic from bringing that up. But wakka reassured him.
"Nah, it's alright. She's just mad. In a way she's right. But she knows that I stand by what I did. Knowing that I am right." T nodded.
"Who is Chappu anyway?"
"My brudduh"
"Oh, I see, that explains the reason why you were distracted. During the blitz ball match" Wakka nodded.
"You see, even though he was younger than me, he was still never with out a doubt a better person. Me and him used to fight a lot like most brothers should do." He paused and then went back to the memory zone. "And den he joined the crusaders. And died while fighting against sin and it's fiends."
Ouch T thought.
"Chappu told me that he was going to propose to Lulu, after winning the blitz ball tournament. But that never came. I don kno why he did it. It just came all ova sudden and then he died. After that me and Lulu have been awkwardly distant but at the same time, closer den we would ever expected."
"I understand. The love triangle."
'Yeah, day can some times be tricky Ya'know?" T looked around and then at my bed.
"Hey why did she leave?" Wakka shrugged.
"I don' kno"
T got up and walked around out side before he decided to come and see me. Well find me at least. Just letting everything sink in and fall to perspective for him. He made his way out to the gate and saw me walking back. He silently stood there. I almost walked into him. I had my sight casted the floor heavily in thought that I tripped on T. Embarrassed as ever. Usually I am alert. I looked up.
"Sorry T. Didn't see you there." I went red scratching the back of my head.
"Yeah, hey, look Lah, there is something I wanted to ask you. Um" I grabbed his arm
"Save it, till we get to a safe place. Come with me, there is something I want to try out. I want to show you something" He nodded.
The both of us, looking shady as ever, speed past the centre of The Thresh hold and walked downward into the hall of beside's finest. The temple. For T? This is like re-opening a wound. For me, even though in the game it looked pretty neat, being there was the shit! It was awesome, it left me in awe all night, making me want to go to the next, and the next, only just to sit there in awe all day and night. I looked up and then looked around the coasts clear I nodded to my thoughts and myself. I turned to T, reached in my pocket and pulled out a black sphere. And held it in front of me. It glowed, though almost camouflaged with the night. It was pitch black, but T and me could see it clearly. Clear as day. T took the orb out of my hands. Placed it high above his head and looked into it.
"It's an orb of the fayth. I have to go in there" I pointed to the cloister of trials "And place that in front of the fayth and ask it to grant me the fayth inside that orb. Neat huh?"
"So you are a summoner also?" I shook my head.
"No, but that's not important. What is that I have found another one." I pulled another sphere and handed it to him. "This one" I pointed to the second one "I have no idea on what to do with it. That is also a sphere of the fayth." I turned to the door of the trials. "Although, I am not giving up on it yet. I have a fair idea on what's going on. Obtain spheres, bring them to the fayth, obtain the blessing inside." I turned back to him, "So, figuring that there are more than one temples through out spira…hence Yuna's job, the pilgrimage. I'm guessing that this one needs a different fayth right?" T just nodded. "Precisely." I sighed and took a deep breath. "We will never know until we find out. Here we go" I motioned for him to follow.
We ran in to the cloister, T remembered how to get in and solve the puzzle, while I sat there and made suggestions. Working out which orb and sphere goes in which and so on. With that all my directions and thoughts on what to do on the next trial, should or once we get there. That's a big if on my count. It seems that I do much more and gain more in my time then I do with T, alone. Not being sad or anything, but I think I liked it better with out him. But you know, tough is being tough, I said I would stick to him, and a promise is a promise.
I was wildly amused on how T, knew straight away on what to do with the orbs in the temple. How and where to put them, what to do with the strange things they call glyphs on the wall. It was awesome that things would lift up like that. I'm soo glad he knew. When placing the last piece of the trials together, my black sudden orb, started to strangely glow.
"T? I think we are getting close, dude!"
"Huh?" He turned and looked at me behind him, with my face well lit from the light that was given off the trinket.
"See…" T peered in to again and this time he saw…
"Mark… that's mark, that's the guy Wakka found a day after me."
That's when I spun around. I knew this was going to catch on. Whatever mark was doing here, was surely going to make things HUGELY difficult for me. And because he was last found on the floor in his house, and waking up here…. Could prove intolerable. He may leak out some news or information, which could totally screw up my operation. What's worse, he screws up my operation full stop. A yi yi, it just never ends!
" You are serious right?" Tidus nodded at me, sure as day.
" Sigh Dayum. It just gets better and better with you doesn't it?" He chuckled a bit and we joined the lift.
Tidus and I were hugely amused at each other's enjoyments of lifts and other levitating things. He mocked and laughed about all the things that we did when we were first meeting. We went back on our very short old times. Our first battles. Everything, until a sudden halt, and we were greeted with the broad and favoured decorated waiting area of the temple's fayth. I took a deep breath and walked up to the door. I stood at the door and turned and faced T, I wasn't sure fully if this was going to work. But I had to try, baring in mind this is all still in theory. Even with all of it fitting and leading to this. I looked at T's face and searched for some guidance. He took this time in to consideration. Smiling hopeful-like.
"you can do this Na-Lah, It's all on you."
That's what I was afraid to hear. I nodded in reward of his favour and turned to the door, surprisingly it opened waiting for me, in an expectance sort of manner. I swallowed hard and looked for the underground dome that sat in the floor harbouring the statue that had the fayth in. I kneeled respectively, and placed my hands together. I closed my eyes slowly and began to pray my way. Why? I don't know. But, just for my own piece of mind. Then I opened them and looked straight ahead. I saw a holographic image of the fayth, but I still bow to her and did the spirain pray that they do. And in doing the so, the fayth, which that was obtained in the sphere-like orb combined with the fayth inside. It gave it a sort of an edge. The fayth nodded and smiled delighted to see me.
"I see you have come a long way summoner"
"Yeah. It's kind of like that." Why did she just call me summoner? That's weird.
"I see that you walk a different path of a summoner. It has surely been a while, that I have seen the likes of you in my presence before"
"You mean that there are others like me that have been like this before?"
"Mmmm… Yes! You see, there is a lot to gain from the death of others, with one as big as Sin, people seek far more, in their intuition to gain much from just killing sin alone. People want more. It's in our interest, to keep those, whose weening sanity at bay. Restore peace. Love. Happiness? Of all things"
"I see. Is there a possible chance that you might know why I am here?"
"Of coarse child. I deem you the power of this orb. And I grant you wish of way"
"Wish of way? ( 'Wish of way to where?') Are you certain that you would want to do that…wish of way …. Thingy on me?"
"Ahh, ha ha, Of coarse. You under estimate the power which be falls you, I suggest that you do not provoke the power you halve, it is not to be reckoned with."
"Yes ma'am"
"I see potential. Now then, let us deal with what I contend. You may have the blessing of the Yevon Aeon Valefor. Access to this orb granted."
"Thank you."
I nodded after that, not entirely sure what was going on here, but I had no mind to argue or ask. I just was almost certain to stand strong with my please and thank yous and stood back from my Q's. I noted the kindness of the fayth as extremely generous. So be it. My job here is sealed. And I grabbed my orb from the fayth and smiled
"Thank you grand fayth. I wish you the best of luck"
"And I you… please in favour, I ask for the return of having the honour of addressing you be returned in service of the assurance and the protection of lady-"
"Yuna is sure and will be safe, I will try my best in every which power of my being to make sure that no harm will be unpunished before I die. You have my undying word as a….a-"
"As a Summoner"
"But that's the thing. I am not a summoner. I'm still in question of why and what am I doing here"
"Patience my dear friend"
"Yeah, that's the only card I don't place so freely on the table. Willingly for that matter…. Sigh I will be off now. I thank you once more." I bowed to her in my way and in theirs. Respects in both halves. She gently nodded in angelic manor and returned of that which she was bestowed. The statue, laid underground.
"Things will always come to you in time…"
I turned while hearing that; she knew that I knew I was listening. I placed the orb in my pocket along with my hands. The orb was still glowing, more wildly then ever, what ever that fayth touched it with, must have been one hell of a wish. I joined T, he was standing out side tapping his right shoe against the ground.
Iii ee yuu ee, nobo nei no, meee mi eee, yo ju yo do, iiii ee yuu ee, nobo nei no, meee mi iiii yo ju yo ro,….. Asa te katta e ku ja ma ee…. Asatte katte ku katta ee…..
"Hear that T? The fayth are singing in my presence. I kind of… feel, empty, but with great pleasure all the same." I smiled hugging myself.
"Sure took you long enough."
"What? I had to figure out what I was need to do in order to obtain, what ever it was that she did, with this orb here." I pulled it out, and it beamed all it's energy at one particular wall…
"Huh."
"Eh?" I looked up and followed with my own vision where the light ended. We ended up down where the trials meet the lift. We were directed by the orb's light it's self, and followed to a near by wall, where a strange glowing glyph shone the same colour as valefor and the orb it's self.
"I think that this is it right here." We both nodded. T touched it. But nothing happened.
"Here. Let me."
"Sure." T smiled and let me pass.
"Right, ahh… here goes."
I calmly looked up at the wall and examined the glyph that appeared before me. I sighed and place my hand, warm and loving, on the wall. At that. The orb, which T was holding, rammed itself into the glyph and pierced the wall. Holding itself right in the middle of the glyph. I was a bit taken back by this. I flinched and stepped back. The glyph then blinked repeatedly and disappeared with the wall as well. It totally blew up. What was left was an opened treasure chest, which did obtain the temple's treasure, Yuna's magical rod. But behind it was a channel leading to an opening on a platform in a hollowed out cave near towards the end of the seabed of besaid beach.
"Ahh T? You up for another swim?"
"I'm all for it!'
"Sweet" Both of us pulled our thumbs up and went for it.
Tidus began his exploring, as usual, we figured it would be better to go our separate ways to find more uncovered ground; I stepped on to the platform in the middle of the room. The orb came out of nowhere, which really took me for a monkey. I jumped and shrieked like a little school kid. It was really pathetic if you ask me. I looked at it. Embarrassed to find that Tidus heard the scream. He had just climbed up on to a ledge from the pool below.
"Are you alright Na-lah?"
"Sure…. (If you can count being a 'baby' fine then YUP)" I got up and rubbed my back side.
"What's happening?"
"The orb came back. It totally took me by surprise."
T had to shout. This cave was huge. It was enormous. It looked like some sort of beast used to live here. This platform I'm standing on. Looked like a dinner plate compared to the entire cylindrical cavern. I looked down at him and gave him a sign that I was fine. He smiled and kept searching, while trying to get up my palm slipped and fell into a little indent into the ground. I looked Huh? What is this? My face lit up, no wonder this orb came to me. I stood back and where the levitating orb was; it fell silently in to the little cove in the middle of the platform. With that…. Bob's your uncle dude, because we were in a shit load of trouble. It exploded with a whole veil of light, white light that blinded us. Two seconds it ceast and then the temple cavern started to fall down all around.
"T!!!!!!!" He came pressed back by the down pelting of metal shafts and rotting planks. "…. Ahh" I Kneeled down with my arms over my head, I was fortunate that the wood missed me…too close. Coast was clear. "…Yo!" I noticed the little bit of blonde beneath the traverse, then these bright blue eyes followed. T was fine. Thank god. But… no time to think now. Raining metal and rock here, plenty of time to gamble LAHTINAH, "Argh…T, Get your sword ready…" I jumped off the platform, crash-landed, just, on the edge of another one. And quickly dodge-rolled away from another, just missing it by 5 cm. Using only what agility and what help T could spare, we gapped it for a ridge near the clearing, of which we entered. T was there before me, "No good Lah, it's blocked" We looked, spotted a new clearing. "There" He nodded and ran out of range of the falling boulders and jiggered edges of the levels above, "This pit is falling down" He ran towards a clearing on one side. The exit was up, and by the looks of things the only way to go, or remotely be safe, was to scale down wards. "I'm ready…" I ran the opposite way.
"Lahtinah…."
"Aww man T. What's…u, u..p?!!!?"
This humungous leviathan creature came out of nowhere in mid air, and you would not believe how baaaad this guy's breathe stunk. It was rotten. Worse than the big fish that tried to eat us. I pulled out my sword. It glowed with fire. But it wasn't at its full strength. Not yet. The orb floated towards me and plastered it's self on to the handle of the sword it's self. I sighed in aggravation. Things don't come easy huh…. All right Lahtinah let's jam! One boulder came crashing down on T's standing point, which made the plat form collide into the big Leviathan, and T engaged battle. I came with him.
"Whoa neat sword … where did you get that?"
"Not important." I pointed to the Lizard that was about to tear our hair out. "That's important!'
"Understood!"
Let's get ready to ruuuummmbllllllleeeeeee!!!!!! It caused us a lot of chaos and drama. Because most of the time, the fiend-aeon thing was air borne, thus un-reachable. For now. Every so often it tried to attack us melee but when it did, we knocked a fair back. But that's only pay back. None of us had ever had experience with dealing in magic and tatic abilities. Too early in the game. Journey. What we needed was a miracle. We slashed away and T pulled out our best move yet. His spiral hit. I was soo relieved that it actually hit. I kept slashing away. Not much point in doing anything else, because, I have nothing on my list. Right now, this fiend was really reacting to T's momentum. It was squaring off with him fair and square. I must admit. What ever he did while I was gone, did him sht loads of good. Me on the other hand, useless as ever. I'm going to kill you Jecht, now here I was thinking that he would NOT make me do anything stupid. Wrong. Oh so wrong, at this point? All I could ever do is help him out. I'm just another of Jecht's pawns in his prophecy. Sad!
All this for another character?
Whoa, T was mega burning up from inside out. His eye was kinda like twitching. It was amazing. He actually had a field of battle of anger in him. Poor soul.
Now,
The odds where even. We had both given and took in a lot of heat. At least we didn't drench ourselves with potions all day long. Chances are we didn't bring any. That, and we didn't have time either. But for some, this was a mission just to think about them, it was hard enough trying to defend our selves. I just want out.
"Tidus? What the hell do we do now?"
"I don't know, I was hopping that you would answer that question"
"Dammit T, I am serious, if we don't think of something soon, we will be mince meat…eck, mom never cooked good mince too…"
"How could you think of food at a time like this?'
"T!!!"
"Hey, I'm only just saying. Hmm, how much power have you got in you?"
"Not much, but I will see this through, what you have on the agenda"
"Right, I have an idea"
With that, he dived underneath the water, and attacked with another one of his spiral hits that he had been saving. Oh, so that's why his eye was twitching. I swished my sword around and attacked while, T, did so underneath. It was all good, until the gigantic worm decided to move. T spent most of his time trying to follow it, while I tried hard to defend my position above.
"T this isn't working."
"Argh…."
"Huh, Wtf is that?"
Spat out of the belly of the ancient summon the Leviathan, was none other than the glorious Mark. There in the entrails and bloody-coloured goo from the inside, lay Mark. All wet and soggy. I couldn't help but laugh. I tried to help him up, but because he was covered in the most disgusting stuff you have ever comprehended existed, It proved most difficult. Most indeed.
The summon was most pleased that Mark was out of it's belly. We had gained another to our holding. Mark. And not only that, because I need other human sacrifices for me to aid and support Tidus, Mark, he was the walking fayth of me and allowed me to control the powers of others. The first? Is Leviathan. I hail in the power of water. Right on! Righteous
Whicked.
"Hey there mark"
"Whoa! I think I drank too much of Wakka's hidden stash of home made khalua."
Me and T just laughed.
"Welcome aboard Lionhart"
