Chapter 5
Evie sat on the chair next to the window. She stared at group she was with. Lexi on the bed, and the boys out stretched on the floor. Shinra was lying down on the floor beside the bed, as if guarding Lexi as she slept. Rick, Leif and Chappu slept beside each other fighting over the blanket in their sleep. Tidus leaned against the wall, awake.
"Jet lag?" Evie asked him.
"Yeah, no." Tidus answered.
"Huh?" Evie gave him a face.
"It's just that-" Tidus was interrupted by Chappu's loud snore. The both of them laughed.
"Let's get out of this cabin." Evie said, standing.
"Yah, good idea." Tidus got up and opened the door for Evie. She smiled and they both left. They walked out to the deck. Evie leaned on the bar that held her safe from the sea. She loved the sea breeze blow lightly on her face. Tidus rested his head on his hands, as he stared out to the night sea horizon.
"It's so stuffy in there..." Evie smiled.
"Yeah, I like it out here." Tidus answered sadly.
"What's wrong, thought you'd be happy to get away from Virak and Besaid."
"I am, but...I want to be with Yuna."
"What?" Evie gave him a disgusted face, "she's 40!"
"Not when I met her, when I met her we were 17. I should have been Lexi's father." Evie stared at him, was he crazy?
"You like older women I see, very old..." Evie said, turning away.
"No, that's not it. Sin has something to do with it."
"Sin is a living piece of death."
"Sin took me from Zanarkand, the living Zanarkand. It brought me to Spira where I met Yuna and Lulu and Wakka and-and Rikku. When we fought Sin, that was it, I was disappearing. I jumped the Besaid dock only to find my Dad, then I…ended up here…"
"Destiny..."
"Huh?"
"Have you ever thought that maybe you were supposed to be taken away, to travel here? Isn't it possible that you're not supposed to be in Old Spira? In the Revolution of Machina?" Evie said, staring out to the stars, "all you humans give up when you loose something that was never there, sometimes some humans loose, and then try harder to achieve what they are missing. Humans…can betray and be loyal to one another easily, unfortunately."
"Aren't you human?" Tidus asked, looking at her.
"Depends what you call human," she smiled mysteriously.
"Ur hu! Sin! Sin! Drana yna vaehtc ypuynt!" an Al bhed exclaimed as he ran from the other side of the boat.
"You get the boys, I'll try to fight him off." Evie said as she made her way to the other side. Tidus nodded, but then a thought hit him. 'she's alone.' He was about to chase after her but she was already gone.
----Change scene----
Evie ran through the crowd only to find fiends waiting for her. She frowned, ready for her victory.
"Ok, here we go..." she shut her eyes and summoned Valefor. His miraculous wings appeared from the sky and he landed gracefully on to the boat.
"Sonic wings!" Evie ordered as she used her staff to point at the fiends. Valefor used his wings and attacked the fiends. They gave horrifying shriek and faded into pryflies.
"Evie you ok?" Lexi asked as she knelt down beside her.
"Yes, I'm fine, thanks." Evie smiled.
"Ok, let's take care of this!" Rick exclaimed and put up his fists, Chappu took out his lucky blitzball, and Shinra pulled the grenade trigger and threw it at Sin. Everyone ducked.
"Ok my turn!" Lexi stood up and smiled, she threw up the dress sphere and she jumped up into the light. She landed down to be dressed in her warrior outfit. She wore all black. Leather boots crawled up her leg to her shin, and a leather belt garter wrapped around her thigh. She wore a tight black skirt that showed her mid drift and had leather straps attaching her shirt to her skirt, and a pair of black gloves that went up to her upper arms. She wore a black tank top that stuck to her skin, and shaped out her figure. Around her neck was a black chocker with a silver cross dangling from it. She pulled out her sword that resembled Auron's; big and clunky.
"Lexi!! You look like a-" Rick started,
"Shut up!" Lexi hit him with her sword.
"Whoa..." Tidus gawked at her,
"C'mon! We gotta distract Sin!" Lexi exclaimed and slashed at Sin.
"Right!" Tidus drew his sword and attacked at the giant fin.
"Firea!" Rick exclaimed, punching a fireball towards Sin.
"Hey! Watch where you're aimin!" Leif exclaimed as he dodged the fireball. Rick smirked, as if he was actually aiming for his brother. The fin dove into the water, and the boat found its balance.
"Hey, what?" Lexi said looking at her hands. Tidus glanced at her and saw her warrior outfit change into her normal clothes.
"After the battle, you go to your normal outfit." Shinra explained, as he helped Evie up on her feet.
"Hey!" A man exclaimed, he was the one from the ticket booth.
"You tricked me! That's not a kid under 10!" the man exclaimed, Lexi backed up behind Tidus.
"Maybe not, but she helped move Sin away. Can't you at least be grateful?" Tidus exclaimed.
"Yes, but you still need to pay for the ticket!" the man exclaimed.
"uhh..." Lexi backed up a bit.
"Hey, Lexi careful you might..." Leif started as he saw her back up. He saw her trip over he ledge and fell into the water. The splash of her body hitting the water made everyone look.
"Oh, crap...not again!" Tidus turned around quickly and dove into the water.
"Hey!! Wait up!!" Leif dove in after him. Rick and Chappu glanced at each other and jumped into the water.
Shinra sighed, and looked out, he saw the City of Luca.
"Might as well." Shinra said, "sorry about this." Shinra picked Evie up, and jumped into the water.
"Ok, hang on..." Shinra said once they were in the water. Evie nodded and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Where's Lexi?" he asked.
"Right here!" Lexi waved, she was on Tidus' back.
"You know, what was the point of buying tickets when we could have just rowed ourselves here?" Rick asked as he swam towards the dock.
"I have no idea, sometimes we are really stupid, ya?" Chappu answered.
"Well, at least we made it here," Shinra said, "sorry about..." he started.
"It's alright, really." She smiled at him, even though he couldn't see her.
"Thanks, Leif, Tidus, I'm really stupid..." Lexi said as they swam.
"you don't gotta tell me twice..." Leif sighed, Lexi scowled at him.
"It's ok, you're not that heavy..." Tidus said, smiling.
"That's cause she hasn't eaten yet," Leif answered, laughing.
"Shut up!" Lexi scowled, then her stomach growled too. Tidus laughed.
When the group made it to the docks Shinra helped Evie up. She stood on the dock taking out the water from her clothes.
"That was a nice work out," Tidus said sarcastically as he wrung out his shirt.
"It was, wasn't it?" Lexi smiled, laughing; she didn't do any work at all.
"Maybe I should just push you into the water then, watch you drown." Tidus said.
"Oh no you don't," she said backing away, "I'll tell mom on you!"
"What are you, a mamma's girl? Wait... you're a mamma's boy!" Lexi glared at him, and pushed him into the water.
"Call, me a boy again and I'll make you drown." She glared, and helped him out of the water. Tidus shook the water out of his hair.
"Hey!" Lexi giggled, Tidus smiled at her.
"Ok, you flirt," Rick, said, pulling Tidus away.
"We have to go to Mi'hen High Road." Evie said, interrupting, "but first..." she said as she wrung out her skirt, "we need to rest for a bit."
"Good idea! Ice cream!" Lexi exclaimed, jumping up in the air. When she landed she slipped on a puddle and she began to fall backwards. Then, someone's hand wrapped around her wrist and pulled her up.
"Hey, thanks Leif..." She smiled.
"Umm Leif is a nice name, but Tidus would do thanks."
Lexi opened her eyes, "oh, ha, sorry Tidus. Thought you were Leif."
"Yah, I realize that..." Tidus sighed, letting her go.
"Well, we need to dry off..." Shinra said, as he began walking out of the dock.
"You're telling me, ya!" Chappu exclaimed. As they entered the main square, they saw people bustling, and running around with advertisements of sponsors, balloons and flyers.
They group walked around the corner looking for a place to rest.
"Hey, hey! You got two lovely girls with you!" some one exclaimed beside them, holding flyers.
"What? Where? We only have one lovely girl," Rick said, smirking.
"Shut up!" Lexi elbowed him in the stomach.
"Do you love to sing? Love to dance?" he asked.
"Um, we better be on our way, c'mon." Shinra said, trying to ignore the man.
"Oh, don't be like that!" the man placed his arm around Shinra's shoulder, then slowly pulled away because he was wet.
"Well, then, you look like a bunch of good looking sphere hunters."
"Sphere Hunters us? Oh no, no you got-" Evie started.
"Here enter this competition, I bet you girls could win."
"uhh...win what, exactly...?" Evie asked.
"The most awesome sphere of course!"
"What's in it?" Tidus asked, suspiciously.
"Exactly, you must win to know what's in it."
"What a rip off!" Lexi exclaimed.
"Oh, come now, you don't only win a sphere, you also win an air ship!"
"Hmm..." Shinra pondered.
"Here, sir, for your girl friends." The man gave Shinra a flyer, and then they began walking.
"I hate people like him, ya?" Chappu said, shaking his head.
"I know what you mean, so annoying." Rick sighed.
"I guess it takes one to know one, huh?" Lexi said, smiling.
"Love to sing? Love to Dance? Well here is your chance. Enter in Luca's Talent Competition. Win a rare sphere, an air ship, an Al-bhed made guitar, drum set and a key board. Air ship is as new and as up beat as our competitors. Hurry! Sign up now." Shirna read blankly.
"we should enter," Tidus said, just before Shinra was about to throw it away.
"what? Why?" the group stared at him.
"what if that sphere has a secret to returning me to the past?" Tidus asked.
"Oh no you don't, none of us are going to enter that competition got it? We don't exactly sing and dance randomly in the streets, about rain falling on your head, or running down a yellow fucking road!" Lexi exclaimed, placing her hands on her hips.
"let's go," Leif sighed, and they all started walking. Silence was in the air.
"do you want Virak to be your father for the rest of your life?" Tidus asked, Lexi.
"what did you say?" Lexi asked, turning around raising her eyebrow.
"you hate Virak right?" Tidus smiled, he got her hooked.
"we all hate Virak, ok?" Leif said, shaking his head.
"what if you could get rid of him?" Tidus asked again.
"we tried about a million things to get rid of him! We just gotta face that he's here forever." Rick said, sighing.
"but I could get rid of him, forever, like he was never here!" Tidus smiled.
"that's impossible, ya?" Chappu said.
"that's true, but it's supposed to be impossible that I'm here."
"what are you getting at?" Shinra asked as they entered a Café.
"well, I'm not supposed to be here. I want to marry Yuna." Tidus smiled proudly.
"shhhh, not so loud!" Evie exclaimed.
"Geez, people are starting to look at you funny..." Lexi reminded.
"sorry, it's just that..." Tidus apologized, then continued, "what if in that sphere there's a clue for me to get into the past." They all looked at him, they understood what he was saying.
"well, what do you say? I could be Lexi's new dad." Tidus smiled. Lexi's heart pounded, it was a chance she could take. She hated Virak, she wanted him dead, gone from her life forever. She didn't just hate him because he restricted her from her actions, but restricting her from her friends and family was a different thing. She wanted him gone forever, to leave her mother and her alone.
"Ok, I'll do it." Lexi smiled, "I'll do it."
"What?!" Leif looked at her, shocked.
"What, what?" she asked.
"You can't be serious, right? I mean...you're Lexi! Not, Aunt Yunie."
"If I was Aunt Yunie I wouldn't have said no before. Helllooo."
"She has a point," Evie said, smiling, "we must take chances."
"Right!" Tidus exclaimed.
"Hi, I'm your waitress for today, may I help you?" the waitress asked. She had long dark brown hair and her bangs fell on her forehead. Her brown eyes diverted down onto her note pad. She didn't seem like she was wearing any type of uniform, she wore her casual clothes. She wore a silver necklace that had a lion on it. She wore a white tube top that showed her mid drift. She held the note pad with her gloved fingers that had silver spikes on them. She wore a tight black leather mini skirt, and a pair of suspenders. She wore black boots that went halfway up her calves and a leather belt around her left leg that held a little dagger. Evie looked up at her, she seemed familiar to her.
"Yah, what's your sign?" Rick winked.
"Do not enter, any one else?" she asked.
"Are you single?" Rick asked again.
"No, anything to drink or eat?" the waitress continued.
"No," Shinra then looked at Evie for her to order.
"Umm, green tea thanks." Evie smiled.
"Evie?" the girl looked up from the note pad.
"Hey Andy, see your business is doing well."
"heh, yeah, course I'm loosing people, would any of you like to help out?" Andy asked.
"I would-" Rick volunteered.
"You don't want Rick to help, he's definitional." Lexi smiled.
"shut up, I ain't no robot!" Rick exclaimed.
"who are your friends?" Andy asked, leaning on the table with one hand.
"this is Lexi," Evie smiled.
"I've heard you, high summoner's daughter." Andy said.
"grreeaat, I'm known as a daughter!" Lexi said sarcastically.
"Yah, well," Andy shrugged.
"And this is Rick, Chappu, Leif, Tidus and Shinra." Evie continued.
"I think that one right there is cute," Andy said, smiling at Tidus.
"You can't have him!" Lexi exclaimed, annoyed.
"Huh? Sorry, is he your boyfriend?" Andy asked.
"Huh? What? Boyfriend? I-I-I-I...no, but you can't have him." Lexi said, sort of embarrassed.
"Silly girl, I don't want him." Andy smiled, "I have a boyfriend."
"Oh, sorry..." Lexi apologized.
"Evie, why are you all...wet?" Andy asked.
"Long story," Evie sighed. Andy then noticed the flyer Shinra was holding.
"Are you going to enter?" Andy asked him.
"What?" Shinra asked, confused.
"The competition, are you going to enter?"
"No..." Shinra answered slowly.
"Good, cause that's girls only...unless they're back up dancers; and you don't look like much of a dancer..." Andy said.
"hey, um, do you know where we can stay for the night?" Leif asked.
"it's lunch, Leif, why are you worrying about that?" Chappu asked.
"because we're going to forget..." Leif sighed.
"good point,"
"well, there's a cheap motel just around the corner..." Andy answered.
"great! We'll go there..." Leif smiled.
"so, when's the competition?" Tidus asked.
"umm, tonight, why? Who's entering?" Andy asked.
"Lexi." They all said together.
"umm...yah...I guess I am..." Lexi sighed.
"well, why don't you guys go to the motel? I'll go help look for an outfit, looks like you need one." Andy giggled.
"well, I..."
"I'm coming too!" Rick smiled.
"oh no you don't, you're coming with me!" Lexi exclaimed as Leif dragged him out. Chappu sighed and followed them.
"and, Evie want to come with me?" Andy asked.
"of course," Evie smiled.
"I'm coming then to!" Shinra suddenly exclaimed, then blushed, 'why did I do that? That was stupid!'
"um, sure..." Andy raised her eye brow.
"me too, I need to make sure this goes well." Tidus added.
"well then, let's go shopping!" Andy exclaimed, and left with her little group.
"shopping?" Tidus and Shinra looked at each other, and sighed, what did they get themselves into?

Chapter 5
Evie sat on the chair next to the window. She stared at group she was with. Lexi on the bed, and the boys out stretched on the floor. Shinra was lying down on the floor beside the bed, as if guarding Lexi as she slept. Rick, Leif and Chappu slept beside each other fighting over the blanket in their sleep. Tidus leaned against the wall, awake.
"Jet lag?" Evie asked him.
"Yeah, no." Tidus answered.
"Huh?" Evie gave him a face.
"It's just that-" Tidus was interrupted by Chappu's loud snore. The both of them laughed.
"Let's get out of this cabin." Evie said, standing.
"Yah, good idea." Tidus got up and opened the door for Evie. She smiled and they both left. They walked out to the deck. Evie leaned on the bar that held her safe from the sea. She loved the sea breeze blow lightly on her face. Tidus rested his head on his hands, as he stared out to the night sea horizon.
"It's so stuffy in there..." Evie smiled.
"Yeah, I like it out here." Tidus answered sadly.
"What's wrong, thought you'd be happy to get away from Virak and Besaid."
"I am, but...I want to be with Yuna."
"What?" Evie gave him a disgusted face, "she's 40!"
"Not when I met her, when I met her we were 17. I should have been Lexi's father." Evie stared at him, was he crazy?
"You like older women I see, very old..." Evie said, turning away.
"No, that's not it. Sin has something to do with it."
"Sin is a living piece of death."
"Sin took me from Zanarkand, the living Zanarkand. It brought me to Spira where I met Yuna and Lulu and Wakka and-and Rikku. When we fought Sin, that was it, I was disappearing. I jumped the Besaid dock only to find my Dad, then I…ended up here…"
"Destiny..."
"Huh?"
"Have you ever thought that maybe you were supposed to be taken away, to travel here? Isn't it possible that you're not supposed to be in Old Spira? In the Revolution of Machina?" Evie said, staring out to the stars, "all you humans give up when you loose something that was never there, sometimes some humans loose, and then try harder to achieve what they are missing. Humans…can betray and be loyal to one another easily, unfortunately."
"Aren't you human?" Tidus asked, looking at her.
"Depends what you call human," she smiled mysteriously.
"Ur hu! Sin! Sin! Drana yna vaehtc ypuynt!" an Al bhed exclaimed as he ran from the other side of the boat.
"You get the boys, I'll try to fight him off." Evie said as she made her way to the other side. Tidus nodded, but then a thought hit him. 'she's alone.' He was about to chase after her but she was already gone.
----Change scene----
Evie ran through the crowd only to find fiends waiting for her. She frowned, ready for her victory.
"Ok, here we go..." she shut her eyes and summoned Valefor. His miraculous wings appeared from the sky and he landed gracefully on to the boat.
"Sonic wings!" Evie ordered as she used her staff to point at the fiends. Valefor used his wings and attacked the fiends. They gave horrifying shriek and faded into pryflies.
"Evie you ok?" Lexi asked as she knelt down beside her.
"Yes, I'm fine, thanks." Evie smiled.
"Ok, let's take care of this!" Rick exclaimed and put up his fists, Chappu took out his lucky blitzball, and Shinra pulled the grenade trigger and threw it at Sin. Everyone ducked.
"Ok my turn!" Lexi stood up and smiled, she threw up the dress sphere and she jumped up into the light. She landed down to be dressed in her warrior outfit. She wore all black. Leather boots crawled up her leg to her shin, and a leather belt garter wrapped around her thigh. She wore a tight black skirt that showed her mid drift and had leather straps attaching her shirt to her skirt, and a pair of black gloves that went up to her upper arms. She wore a black tank top that stuck to her skin, and shaped out her figure. Around her neck was a black chocker with a silver cross dangling from it. She pulled out her sword that resembled Auron's; big and clunky.
"Lexi!! You look like a-" Rick started,
"Shut up!" Lexi hit him with her sword.
"Whoa..." Tidus gawked at her,
"C'mon! We gotta distract Sin!" Lexi exclaimed and slashed at Sin.
"Right!" Tidus drew his sword and attacked at the giant fin.
"Firea!" Rick exclaimed, punching a fireball towards Sin.
"Hey! Watch where you're aimin!" Leif exclaimed as he dodged the fireball. Rick smirked, as if he was actually aiming for his brother. The fin dove into the water, and the boat found its balance.
"Hey, what?" Lexi said looking at her hands. Tidus glanced at her and saw her warrior outfit change into her normal clothes.
"After the battle, you go to your normal outfit." Shinra explained, as he helped Evie up on her feet.

"Oh, crap...not again!" Tidus turned around quickly and dove into the water.
"Hey!! Wait up!!" Leif dove in after him. Rick and Chappu glanced at each other and jumped into the water.
Shinra sighed, and looked out, he saw the City of Luca.
"Might as well." Shinra said, "sorry about this." Shinra picked Evie up, and jumped into the water.
"Ok, hang on..." Shinra said once they were in the water. Evie nodded and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Where's Lexi?" he asked.
"Right here!" Lexi waved, she was on Tidus' back.

"We have to go to Mi'hen High Road." Evie said, interrupting, "but first..." she said as she wrung out her skirt, "we need to rest for a bit."
"Good idea! Ice cream!" Lexi exclaimed, jumping up in the air. When she landed she slipped on a puddle and she began to fall backwards. Then, someone's hand wrapped around her wrist and pulled her up.
"Hey, thanks Leif..." She smiled.
"Umm Leif is a nice name, but Tidus would do thanks."
Lexi opened her eyes, "oh, ha, sorry Tidus. Thought you were Leif."

"we should enter," Tidus said, just before Shinra was about to throw it away.
"what? Why?" the group stared at him.
"what if that sphere has a secret to returning me to the past?" Tidus asked.
"Oh no you don't, none of us are going to enter that competition got it? We don't exactly sing and dance randomly in the streets, about rain falling on your head, or running down a yellow fucking road!" Lexi exclaimed, placing her hands on her hips.

"that's impossible, ya?" Chappu said.
"that's true, but it's supposed to be impossible that I'm here."
"what are you getting at?" Shinra asked as they entered a Café.
"well, I'm not supposed to be here. I want to marry Yuna." Tidus smiled proudly.
"shhhh, not so loud!" Evie exclaimed.
"Geez, people are starting to look at you funny..." Lexi reminded.
"sorry, it's just that..." Tidus apologized, then continued, "what if in that sphere there's a clue for me to get into the past." They all looked at him, they understood what he was saying.

"If I was Aunt Yunie I wouldn't have said no before. Helllooo."
"She has a point," Evie said, smiling, "we must take chances."
"Right!" Tidus exclaimed.
"Hi, I'm your waitress for today, may I help you?" the waitress asked. She had long dark brown hair and her bangs fell on her forehead. Her brown eyes diverted down onto her note pad. She didn't seem like she was wearing any type of uniform, she wore her casual clothes. She wore a silver necklace that had a lion on it. She wore a white tube top that showed her mid drift. She held the note pad with her gloved fingers that had silver spikes on them. She wore a tight black leather mini skirt, and a pair of suspenders. She wore black boots that went halfway up her calves and a leather belt around her left leg that held a little dagger. Evie looked up at her, she seemed familiar to her.
"Yah, what's your sign?" Rick winked.
"Do not enter, any one else?" she asked.
"Are you single?" Rick asked again.
"No, anything to drink or eat?" the waitress continued.
"No," Shinra then looked at Evie for her to order.
"Umm, green tea thanks." Evie smiled.
"Evie?" the girl looked up from the note pad.
"Hey Andy, see your business is doing well."
"heh, yeah, course I'm loosing people, would any of you like to help out?" Andy asked.
"I would-" Rick volunteered.
"You don't want Rick to help, he's definitional." Lexi smiled.
"shut up, I ain't no robot!" Rick exclaimed.
"who are your friends?" Andy asked, leaning on the table with one hand.
"this is Lexi," Evie smiled.
"I've heard you, high summoner's daughter." Andy said.
"grreeaat, I'm known as a daughter!" Lexi said sarcastically.
"Yah, well," Andy shrugged.
"And this is Rick, Chappu, Leif, Tidus and Shinra." Evie continued.
"I think that one right there is cute," Andy said, smiling at Tidus.
"You can't have him!" Lexi exclaimed, annoyed.
"Huh? Sorry, is he your boyfriend?" Andy asked.
"Huh? What? Boyfriend? I-I-I-I...no, but you can't have him." Lexi said, sort of embarrassed.
"Silly girl, I don't want him." Andy smiled, "I have a boyfriend."
"Oh, sorry..." Lexi apologized.
"Evie, why are you all...wet?" Andy asked.
"Long story," Evie sighed. Andy then noticed the flyer Shinra was holding.
"Are you going to enter?" Andy asked him.
"What?" Shinra asked, confused.
"The competition, are you going to enter?"
"No..." Shinra answered slowly.
"Good, cause that's girls only...unless they're back up dancers; and you don't look like much of a dancer..." Andy said.
"hey, um, do you know where we can stay for the night?" Leif asked.
"it's lunch, Leif, why are you worrying about that?" Chappu asked.
"because we're going to forget..." Leif sighed.
"good point,"
"well, there's a cheap motel just around the corner..." Andy answered.
"great! We'll go there..." Leif smiled.
"so, when's the competition?" Tidus asked.
"umm, tonight, why? Who's entering?" Andy asked.
"Lexi." They all said together.
"umm...yah...I guess I am..." Lexi sighed.
"well, why don't you guys go to the motel? I'll go help look for an outfit, looks like you need one." Andy giggled.
"well, I..."
"I'm coming too!" Rick smiled.
"oh no you don't, you're coming with me!" Lexi exclaimed as Leif dragged him out. Chappu sighed and followed them.
"and, Evie want to come with me?" Andy asked.
"of course," Evie smiled.
"I'm coming then to!" Shinra suddenly exclaimed, then blushed, 'why did I do that? That was stupid!'
"um, sure..." Andy raised her eye brow.
"me too, I need to make sure this goes well." Tidus added.
"well then, let's go shopping!" Andy exclaimed, and left with her little group.
"shopping?" Tidus and Shinra looked at each other, and sighed, what did they get themselves into?
