Rikku walked back to the village deep in thought. But when she reached the ruins, she saw Yuna waiting there.
"Rikku? Umm... sorry for what I said earlier. I don't really know what's wrong with me. I'm always feeling like I'm hurt or sad. But then sometimes I just feel like my normal self. So sorry for earlier. I myself am confused on my actions. I mean, I can't believe I asked you to kill me! So, you see, I don't know what I'm doing these days. But, please forgive me for what I said earlier." Yuna bowed her head. Rikku smiled and placed her hand on Yuna's shoulder.
"I understand." Rikku said wiping away a tear. Yuna looked up at her and nodded. "But just allow me to help you. Give me time to think."
"Okay." Yuna laughed.
"No! I'm serious! Last time on the pilgrimage, ya'll just rushed to Zanarkand and I had no time to think of a way for you not to die!" Rikku pouted.
"But I'm here. Thank you Rikku."
"Don't forget about Tidus. He helped-" Rikku stopped and gasped at what she just said. Yuna's face expression suddenly changed.
"Yeah...Tidus helped too..."
"Yuna, I'm so sorry!" Rikku said. But Yuna still looked sad, like an abandoned child. "Yuna, don't change your mood now. Please Yuna. Snap out of it." Rikku gently shook Yuna. But suddenly Yuna began to fall backwards. Rikku gasped. She was able to catch Yuna before she fell. She saw Wakka, Lulu, and Paine coming.
"Yuna! What happened here?" Wakka asked as he rushed to Yuna and Rikku.
"I don't know! We were just talking and all of a sudden, she just blacked out!" Rikku explained.
"She needs to rest." Lulu suggested.
"Ya, you're right." Wakka lifted Yuna into his arms and carried her to the village. Lulu followed.
"Rikku, did you find out why she was acting so strange?" Paine questioned.
"Well... I, uh..."
"It's okay, you don't need to tell me." Paine turned to leave.
"Wait! It's okay, just to tell Yuna you know." Rikku warned. Paine nodded and listened. "Okay, well it seems that Yuna is always sad and down because she misses Tidus. I mean her mood seriously changes if you mention him. And she even cut her wrist. But I think something happened at the beach, because right when I found her she was angry."
"Hmm...." Paine pondered. "We didn't mention him last night at all right?"
"No... Something must of happened when she was alone. Because when I talked to her and asked what was wrong and why she cut herself, she said she was it was the cause of 'unhappiness and pain.'"
"Unhappiness and pain...?"
"That's what she said..." The two remained silent, thinking about what to do. Then it began to rain.
"Hey, you two better come inside before you catch a cold!" Wakka called out to them. He motioned them to come back to the village. They followed him to the lodge where Yuna was resting.
"Yunie..?"
"She's still resting. Give her time. Don't wake her up just yet." Lulu said. Rikku nodded. But soon enough, Yuna sat up and rubbed her eyes.
"Wh-what happened?" Yuna asked.
"You fainted, and so we brought you here, ya?" Wakka explained. Rikku elbowed him.
"It's okay Rikku, I remember now. I'm sorry for causing all the trouble."
"It was nothing." Wakka said. Suddenly, Rikku's communicator beeped.
"Rikku! A storm is coming in! So we need to leave now." Brother explained.
"Yuna, are you ready to go?"
"I'll be okay. Let's go." Yuna got out of beg and stretched. She, Rikku, and Paine began to head out the lodge.
"Whoa, it's really pouring out there. Be careful, ya?" Wakka warned. Yuna, Rikku, and Paine began to run through the storm. When thunder struck, Rikku screamed.
"Don't tell me you're still scared of lightning Rikku." Yuna joked while running.
"Well then we better get through this fast." Paine said. They finally made it to the beach and were soaking wet. The airship was above them with Buddy and Brother standing at the entrance.
"We can't get the ship any lower! You'll have to climb this rope ladder!" Buddy yelled over the storm. He dropped the rope ladder to them. Rikku climbed first, followed by Paine and Yuna. Brother helped Rikku into the airship. When he was going to help Paine in, thunder struck again. The airship was pushed forward from a force of wind. Paine was pulled into the airship safely. Brother held his hand out to Yuna. She reached for it, but another force of the wind threw her off balance and she began to fall.
"Yuna!!" everyone yelled. Yuna was able to grab a hold of the rope ladder before she hit the ground. She began to climb again, but thunder struck again. This time, it struck the rope ladder. Still holding the rope, Yuna fell into the sea.
"Yuna!" Rikku and Paine called out. But the water raged and Yuna was no where in sight.
"What do we do?!" Rikku panicked. "We have to save her!"
"The storm is too rough! You'll die if you try to swim through that water!" Buddy snapped.
"But Yunie will die!" Rikku argued. "I don't care! I'm going!" Rikku was ready to jump out of the airship. But Paine stepped in front of her.
"He's right." Paine pointed out.
"We can't just let Yuna die!" Rikku complained.
"I know. She's strong. So let's pray that she'll be okay."
"But-" Rikku watched as the door of the airship closed.
"Sorry Rikku. Losing one person is bad enough. But we can't lose you too." Buddy said.
"No! We can't let Yuna die!" Rikku yelled. But no one did anything. Rikku fell to her knees and cried.
Yea... this story really is tragic... sorry for that.. heh heh... well I'll try to make it a lil more happy soon..
Rikku walked back to the village deep in thought. But when she reached the ruins, she saw Yuna waiting there.
