"Lowly Guardian Yuna?!" Yuna said in outrage, "I'll say it again, I am the Summoner, and I am on my way at the moment to becoming High Summoner when I defeat Sin, you have no right to talk to me like that."
"I have every right; I don't think that you understand. You are from the future. Summoner Tidus, how do you allow your Summoner to behave like this, you have not trained her well and by the way you both stand she does not protect you very well."
"I think you are mistaken," Tidus shouted, "I do not need protecting, I am the protector."
The young boy laughed and shook his head.
"Why do you not just accept the truth?" He laughed again and turned away, "Now leave me alone, I need to carry on with my training."
"No, not until you answer some questions," Yuna said, "Now, who are you? What is your name? Why are you here, you are too young."
"I am not young, you are mistaken, and I am in fact older than you. You are from the future, you do not exist, soon you will be gone because you will not be able to adapt to this life where we are getting back to life as normal."
"As normal?" Yuna asked stumbling back. "What year is this?"
"You know," said the boy, not looking back at Yuna. "You know very well what year it is. I will not tell you."
"You mean that Sin has just come and been destroyed?" Yuna asked turning away and looking at Tidus. The boy nodded and made a 'yes' sound.
"How is this possible?" Tidus said. "This can't be possible, I won't allow it. Yuna let's go, if we are quick we can get back to Macalania Woods in a week and we can find the others and we…" Yuna shook her head.
"No, if we are in the year he says we are in then there will be no woods and we will be stuck in this time forever."
The boy turned and looked to Yuna and Tidus.
"If you think that then you are weak and will never defeat Sin. Summoner Tidus you put up with this Guardian?"
"She knows more than me – wait I'm not a Summoner, Yuna is the Summoner and I her Guardian."
"Well then she should know of the place where day and night meet is the only way you can travel through time. She is too weak. Don't be her Guardian, be mine instead, I know more than her."
Yuna turned around quickly and gave a sound of un-amusement and shock.
"I beg your pardon?" She said and she started to walk over to the boy, "Who are you and what gives you the right to say that about me?" She asked,
"Yuna calm down. But your right, who are you boy?"
"I am not boy I am-" The boy was broken of by Tidus grabbing at this top and lifting him up,
"Yes you are older than us but who the hell are you and how to we get out of this time trap?" Tidus asked before dropping the boy back down. The boy fell to the floor but quickly stood himself up and brushed himself down. The Chamber they were in then started to rumble. Yuna and Tidus looked at each other and reached for each others hands. The boy for once looked scared,
"You have upset the Fayth, get out now before this whole place falls to ruins and no one will be able to Summon the First Aeon again." Tidus and Yuna and nodded and turned to run when they heard the chilling sound of the Hymn of the Fayth. Yuna froze and wiped tears from her eyes.
"This can't be," she moaned. "I cannot leave this place. I am a Summoner and I will stay here and die with this Temple if that is what it takes."
"Yuna no, you can't be serious, we need to get out, you need to rid the world of Sin, don't just stand around here, Spira needs you, I need you." Tidus found that he was starting to shout because the sounds of the Temple falling apart were getting louder.
"No." Yuna turned and looked around for the boy. "Where is he?"
"Yuna!" Tidus pulled Yuna toward him and to the exit but she pulled away and as he ran to the exit he realised that he was holding a tiny hand and not Yuna's. He was holding the hand of the small boy. He quickly let go of the hand and turned around.
"YUNA!!!!!!" Tidus shouted and he went to run back in to the room when large chunks of the ceiling started to fall and the dusk blocked his sight.
"YUNAAAAAAA!!!!" Tidus should again.
"Tidus go without me. I have to stay here."
"NEVER!!!!" Tidus screamed and he ran back in to the chamber, dodging falling rubble and leaving the small boy on his own. He saw Yuna and ran towards her grabbing her hand before he fell to the floor as parts of the wall started to cave in on top of him. Yuna looked around herself and noticed that none of the rocks were coming any where near her. She then realised that Tidus had tried to grab her hand but she couldn't see him.
"TIDUS!" Yuna yelled and she knelt down and started moving some of the rubble away. "NO Tidus I need you, we need to get to a safer place, please, wake up." She moved more pieces of rubble away when she saw a hand. She moved more and more rubble away and revealed the small boy. She gasped and put her hand to her mouth to stop her screaming.
She moved more and more of the rubble and pulled the boy out of the rocks and held him in her arms, cradling him, crying
"Please don't be dead, please don't be dead," she whispered. She looked at the boys face and he looked so familiar…the eyes and something about the necklace he was wearing...
