Chapter 2: Sorry I Haven't Updated
"I guess they've finished searching the sphere." Paine informed Rikku, standing.
"Guess so." Rikku walked into the elevator with her and went to the bridge, only to see Yuna ready to go. "Huh?" Rikku looked around. "What's up?"
"There's a treasure sphere that we need to find." Yuna confirmed. "Oh, and the sphere wasn't in Al Bhed, it was scrambled." Paine and Rikku nodded.
"Y!" Yuna shouted
"R!" Rikku continued
"P." Paine ended with a smirk. They all jumped from the ship and landed on Bikanel Island to see ruin. It was bleak, coated in dust... the destruction had occurred a while ago. Paine cringed. 'Gippal was supposed to have been here today...' She thought solemnly. "Oh great." Paine commented. "Yuna...."
"We aren't helping." Yuna confirmed, though looking around sadly at the site. "I'm not dumb enough to give up our mission for this." Paine nodded.
"Glad you've learned." She noted, walking up to the camp. Rikku grinned.
"If I were a treasure sphere, where would I hide?" She asked, running around childishly. Yuna shook her head and jumped up onto a destroyed machina.
"Found it!" She exclaimed with a grin. Paine nodded and gave her a 'thumbs up' before calling Brother down with a small smile. They ran back onto the airship and handed Shinra the sphere. A screen popped up at the front of the ship of the camp's destruction. Yuna looked away, she couldn't bear to watch. Rikku bit her lip and Paine shook her head sadly.
"It's just junk." Paine confirmed, earning a gasp from Yunie.
"Junk?" She demanded as they landed in Djose to tell Gippal what had happened. The bottom opened and they all walked out of the ship. "How can you call Nhadala and the others' dying words junk?" She glared at Paine, tears forming behind her eyes.
Gippal greeted them all with a smile until he noticed their expressions.
"Back so soon... something must be wrong." He muttered drawing small tears from Yuna.
"Yup...." She said with false cheerfulness before handing him the sphere. "Let's play it somewhere else." He nodded and led her into a side room. Paine and Rikku returned to the airship after they decided that Yuna could take care of it herself.
"What happened?" Gippal asked, locking the door behind them. "I wanna hear it from you before watching whatever's on that sphere." Yuna nodded.
"Well... we caught treasure sphere waves from Bikanel and went to investigate... we found your digging team... dead." She bit her lip and sighed. Gippal put his face in his hands.
"Oh God..." He murmured. "Oh God..." He repeated before looking back at her with his usual grin hiding his true face. "Alright. I'll watch this sphere later, don't want to be crying in front of a celebrity." He smiled weakly. Yuna sighed.
"Oh let me stay, you shouldn't be alone when coping with this sort of thing." She protested stubbornly. Gippal sighed.
"Fine, stay. Let's see it then." His face quickly reversed back to a frown when he saw the movie. Tears hid behind his eyes as the images whirled by. Yuna set her hand on his when she noticed the look in his eyes and smiled weakly.
"It'll be okay.... Somehow..." She sighed. "No it won't.... I'm just trying to cheer you up... is it working?" She asked blandly.
"Yeah, a little." Gippal turned the sphere off with a shake of his head. "Thanks for trying." Yuna smiled.
"No problem." She leaned in closer to him. "I'm... really sorry... This must be dreadful for you." Gippal nodded and he leaned closer as well, bringing their lips together for a single brief moment. Yuna blushed deeply.
"Sorry." She murmured as he kissed her again.
"Don't be..." He sighed. "Sorry..." He stood and walked out, leaving Yuna sitting there, speechless.
