Chapter Eight

Kilika Redux

The boat pulled up at Kilika Port and Tidus and Yuna walked off. He hadn't been here since he vanished, nearly four years ago. "Whoa!"

"I know, Kilika has gone through a hell of a change"

"As I can see"

Kilika is a small town with houses built on water. Bridges connected the two sides, houses on each.

"The place we're staying at should be near the forest, it's called Ochu Bar"

"We're staying at a bar?" demanded Yuna, disbelief fell upon her face

"Good places aren't cheap you know"

They walked towards the woods and they stopped in front of a giant house, the words embedded on top of the door said, "Kilika Redux"

"We're not staying at a bar, then" there was a slight tone of relief in her sentence.

"You really think I'd take you to a crappy low class hotel like that would you" Tidus laughed

"You're so mean" she punched him playfully in the arm.

Tidus put his arm around her shoulders and walked her into the hotel, "LADY YUNA!!!"

A large crowd had gathered at the admission desk jumping and screaming. She looked at Tidus and drew a deep breath, "No rest for the weary"

"Excuse me!" Tidus said loudly, "Yuna and I are on a holiday so if you don't mind we'd like to get that underway now"

The crowd started to mumble between themselves and then soon departed. "I need to tell you something" whispered someone.

A Yevon Priest had approached Tidus and Yuna, he looked rather worried.

"Wassup?" asked Tidus.

"There has been trouble brewing at the temple. Some people have reported sightings of a large monster engulfed in flames. Do you know anything about this?"

"Yeah, we do. Listen we need you to tell no one, but we think that a monster greater than Sin will rise"

"What? This cannot be"

"Please tell no-one"

"I swear on Yevon"

"Thanks, now if you don't mind, we'd like to start holidaying now"

(A/N: I know the last few chapters have been nothing more than a load of useless blab, but it will ALL come into play later on in the story. The next chapter is when the story gets really interesting.)
