Chapter Six
Calm before the Storm
The next morning, after packing for their trip, Yuna and Tidus went to say goodbye to Lulu and Wakka.
"You really going?" Wakka asked sternly. "Remember, you guys are famous now, so Kilika isn't exactly the spot for a holiday"
"Oh Wakka, just let them go. It's been ages since they've actually gotten away from this island"
"Ya, that's all good then" he said enthusiastically.
"Damn, look at the time Yuna, the boat leaves in an hour"
"See ya later guys"
Yuna gave Wakka a kiss on the cheek and the same for Lulu; Tidus gave Wakka a quick hug and a handshake and Lulu a peck on the cheek. Then they walked out the door.
The day was much like the previous, the sun was out and its warm rays shone upon them as they walked down to the beach. The water was crystal clear and like glass, perfect weather for boating.
"All aboard!" cried a woman towards the dock.
"Quick Yuna, we're just in time" he grabbed Yuna's hand and they rushed towards the boat.
"Made it" Yuna breathed heavily
"Ah, Lady Yuna" said the woman. "I am Azalea. It is an honour" she shook Yuna's hand then turned to Tidus, "A pleasure, Sir Tidus"
"Not at all, the pleasure's all mine"
"Please, step aboard the 'Besaid Voyager' we will be departing shortly"
Tidus and Yuna walked aboard the boat and sat up the very front. Yuna turned to Tidus and smiled. "Remember this spot?"
"Yeah, we talked for the first time here, and then Sin attacked"
"I remember too, I nearly fell overboard but you grabbed me"
The boat departed the Island and out into the sea. "The wind...it's nice" Yuna said.
"Whoa! Déjà vu" said Tidus and they both started to laugh.
"So, what are we doing in Kilika exactly?" Yuna asked him.
"Dunno. We'll see when we get there"
It was mid-afternoon and the sun was drifting behind a cloud, leaving a shadow above everyone. Birds started to fly south, away from their destination. Azalea made an announcement over the P.A telling everyone to get inside because they would be encountering a storm in about an hour.
"Quick, let's go inside," said Tidus helping Yuna up. They walked inside, and luckily they had because as they walked in rain lashed upon the deck. The once clear water was now a murky colour and the waves were getting higher.
"Woops!" Yuna just tripped over her feet because of the rate the boat was been tossed about.
"Try and hold on. We'll get to a room and stay there until the storm is clear"
"ALL CREW TO THE DECK" yelled Azalea over the P.A. Thunder cracked outside like a whip and lightning flashed across the sky.
Tidus put an arm around a scared Yuna and pulled her closer to him. "Keep warm"
"Ok"
"Come on, we've been through heaps worse than this. This is nothing compared to that"
"Like that helps" she laughed reassuringly.
They found a room in the centre of the boat and went inside. Yuna went and jumped into the bed, fighting the rocking of the boat. "Why today?" she complained.
Tidus walked over to her and hopped into the bed also, he hugged her and gave her a kiss. "I'll go see what's going on" and he walked back out.
The boat kept being tossed about and from other rooms, people were yelling. Fighting his way to the main room, Tidus managed to get to Azalea. "What's goin on?"
"I cannot say. The wind just blew up, no warning at all"
"Is there anything we can do?" Tidus voice was now rushed and panicky.
"NO! Just go back to your cabin; the storm will be over soon"
Tidus ran back out of the room and towards where Yuna was, but something caught his eye. A giant fin erupted out of the water and then went straight back in. Tidus froze. "Sin?"
"You saw it too?"
Tidus spun around quickly, and standing there, was the little Fayth that had helped Yuna defeat Sin.
"Wha-"
"There is not enough time. Tidus when you get back to Besaid..."
"Go to the door, where the four ciphers once stood
Proceed to second door, if you would.
Unlock the last four
The truth will be yours...
But heed this...
You must be prepared, for the coming anew
A monster greater than Sin you knew"
The Fayth finished speaking, "Tidus, that is all I can tell you. But I can say one more thing...What you will find will not only rock your life, but everyone associated with you too"
"What does it all...?"
Tidus stopped because the Fayth had vanished. He quickly ran back to his cabin to tell Yuna what he had just heard.
"That can't be right" she said, "It just can't be"
"That's what the Fayth told me"
"But the Fayth vanished four years ago. I don't understand how he could just come back"
"I dunno either, but we have to be prepared, I don't like the sound of this monster"
"But if it is greater than Sin, we could be in trouble. Remember last time we had the aeons and our friends, but this time we won't have either"
"Let's just go have a rest and maybe when we wake up we'll be in Kilika"
Tidus and Yuna walked over to the bed and lied down. Tidus put his arm around Yuna, whose head was resting on his chest, and before speaking another word, they were both asleep.
The next morning, after packing for their trip, Yuna and Tidus went to say goodbye to Lulu and Wakka.
