Reviewers: Thank you ! and Sweet Angel Taisha I'm glad that you guys enjoy the story!

I bet your wondering what's on that sphere huh? Well I'll get on with it so you know!

YRP and Zane gathered around Shinra as he did an analysis of the sphere they found yesterday. "Analysis complete! Let's catch that killer!" Shinra was just as excited to find out everyone else. Rikku and Zane were most excited, though Zane wasn't jumping up and down like Rikku. Even though he wasn't physically showing how exited he was you could see it in his now flashing red eyes. Shinra typed something and the sphere started up.

--Sphere--

Baralai paced around a little the started walking in the direction of the murder with the murder weapon. A struggle could be heard but not seen, Baralai then walked, limping a little, right up to the camera, smiled and whacked it! That was the end of the sphere. The recorder was broken.

--End of Sphere--

"Baralai was the killer!" Rikku screamed.

"Paine searching for that sphere, we trusted him alone with you!" Yuna was completely frantic.

Paine felt her face whiten Nooj was right... She ran out of the room off to the dock.

She ran down the street to the nearest dock. Nooj was right Baralai killed Tromell! But something was a little off, Baralai was limping a bit after the fight. Baralai I trusted you! You said you didn't know who the murder was! Paine got the ship and prayed Nooj was still in Guadosalam. She felt one hot salty tear burn her eyes. She blinked hard. No, don't cry. Crying and admitting she was wrong were not things Paine allowed herself to do much and she wasn't about to do two in one day.

--Guadosalam--

Sure enough Nooj was still there. Paine went up to him, she was going to have a hard time saying he was right and she was wrong.

"You found out." Looks like I won't have to.

"Yes."

"And the killer was?" Maybe I will.

"Baralai..."

"So how did you find out?"

"There was a sphere, of him, there and we didn't see him kill Tromell but we heard it." Paine hung her head as she spoke the words, "I trusted him..."

"Paine please come inside."

"Inside where? You don't live here." Nooj may have been right but she wasn't sure she trusted him either.

"Inside Leblanc's. She's gone and her goons went with her. She'll be back but for now I can go in."

"Isn't that trespassing." Paine was growing suspicious and that was making fighting back her tears easier.

"No, now come." Paine followed Nooj into the dining room of Leblanc's home, he limped a bit. "I told you Baralai dislikes the Guado, he has the weapon, and he lives in the temple. That was enough evidence for me but no, you needed the sphere." As Nooj spoke he had had his back turned to her but after he finished he turned around, and flashed a smile, which Paine recognized as the same smile Baralai had had in the sphere... odd.

"Why do you care what I think? Why are you doing this?" Paine was now seeing Nooj'es hidden cause.

"Because I want to gain your trust Paine." This conversation was making Paine very uneasy.

"Well I better get back to Bevelle, Yuna and Rikku are probably worried" Nooj walked back to the dock with Paine.

"Remember what I said." Nooj bent to kiss Paine but she leaned away and got on the ship.

--Bevelle--

Paine got off the ship eyes pasted to the ground. She walked until she saw a familiar pair of black boots. "Hi Yuna" Paine sounded like a robot as she said it.

"Where've you been all day?" Yuna asked suspiciously.

"Guadosalam. How long have I been gone?"

"Three hours, not that long" Yuna tried to smile but to not much success.

"Dose Baralai know yet?"

"Yes, Zane went straight to Baralai after we saw the sphere." Yuna looked at the ground and reluctantly said "Rikku, Tidus, and I can distract everyone if you want to talk to him.

"You would do that for me?"

"I wouldn't be a true friend if I didn't" Yuna smiled "I knew you would want to so Rikku and Tidus are already in the temple, come on, they won't be able to go much longer." Paine followed Yuna into the temple slipping past the guards was the easy part... The hard part was thinking of what to say to Baralai. He was sitting in a small room, alone. He hadn't broken down, there wasn't the slightest trace of emotion on his face.

After a minute of Paine standing in silence Baralai spoke. "Paine..." He sighed heavily. "It wasn't me. I'm innocent, I swear."

"How do you expect me to believe you? I saw you on that sphere. That was you! It looked like you, it sounded like you. But..." Paine's voice trailed off.

"But what Paine? It wasn't me, was it? There was something off about it?" Baralai stood to face Paine. As much as Paine tried to look away his gaze held her steadfast. She was frozen. Paine didn't know that Baralai's gaze could be as strong as Zane's but it could. Baralai stepped closer to Paine so that his face was inches from hers. "Paine, please believe me. I know it's hard. I think I know how the real murder pulled it off too."

Paine looked at the floor and uttered the words carefully "I believe you." Paine now looked directly into his eyes holding his gaze without wavering. "How did they do it?" Baralai smiled for the first time all day.

"I knew you would. I've always trusted you and I always will never forget that." He kissed her lightly. "Remember when Yuna had her first concert? Leblanc stole her garment grid, and it made her look exactly like Yuna, except her eyes." Baralai had obviously been thinking this out for a while "Leblanc used the power in the spheres to make herself look exactly like Yuna."

"Your saying someone used a sphere to make them self look just like you?"

"Exactly! And as they left they were limping and I haven't been." Baralai's smile grew brighter as he spoke.

"Great but how can we prove it?" Paine was deeply absorbed in thought, until she said "Baralai... You were asking me what Nooj said that made me so upset... He said you were the murder..." Baralai's smile was instantly wiped from his face.

"Great, so I'll be locked up again after I really do kill someone." Both of them laughed a bit. Then something important occurred to Paine.

"Baralai smile for me."

"What?"

"Just do it!" Baralai smiled, his face was soft and open.

"Now what was the point of that?" thoughts raced though Paine's head at the speed of light.

"No time!" and with that Paine ran out, leaving Baralai very confused. Paine ran out of the temple where Yuna was again waiting.

"Well, I must say that's not the expression I expected you to have when you came out." Yuna knew Baralai must have said something pretty good to make Paine so happy.

"Where's the sphere?" Paine asked anxiously, she wanted to get Baralai out of there as fast a possible.

"Zane has it, why?" Yuna was growing more puzzled by the minute. What did Baralai say? Yuna wondered.

"No time I have to get that sphere!" Paine dashed off toward the temple. The red and gold walls rose high above her making her feel small when approaching Zane.

"Zane I need to watch that sphere again, please." Zane eyed Paine suspiciously.

"Paine, Yuna told me the you and Baralai are friends. Don't get in over your head. It's better to let an innocent mad die then a guilty one live" Zane reluctantly held out the sphere. "Have it back soon" Zane frowned as Paine took the sphere and dashed off again. Paine went past Yuna who now had Tidus and Rikku with her. Rikku jumped in Paine's way as she went.

"Hold on there missy! What did Baralai tell you?" Why do you have that sphere?" Rikku really believed Baralai was the murder...

"Move Rikku! I need to go!"

"Where and Why?" Rikku was frowning down on Paine something Paine had never seen Rikku do before.

"Paine we just don't want you getting hurt, physically or mentally." Concern swirled around in Yuna's eyes.

"In terms of physically getting hurt, I can take care of myself. And mentally, Yuna I need to do this, please don't question my judgment now! Please I need to see this sphere again, what difference dose it make anyway if I just want to watch a dumb sphere anyway?" Paine had never pleaded with Rikku or Yuna and she didn't want to but it was the only way she could help Baralai.

"Fine Paine, go ahead just, be careful and if you do get hurt, we're here for you." Yuna, and Rikku smiled, while Tidus just stood and pretended to know what was going on.

"Thank you, I'll remember that next time you're in trouble." And with that Paine dashed off in the direction of the ship.
