finally, another chapter's up! Phew. Hey is it just me or does it take like 5 hours just to write one chapter?

Well anyways,I just wanted to mention that this story kinda follows the game only 50% of the time. Like after kilika they will go to luca then after they go to the mihen highway, but in between those there will be other things happening that doesn't happen in the game. For example...some Tidus and Lyna romance? Confused yet? yeah, me too. Well anyways, Enjoy!

Chapter 3 – Spira

"Believe....Believe.....Believe...." the words rang through Lyna's head as she found herself falling as soon as she regained consciousness.

She looked down and saw nothing but a bunch of tree tops.

"Ohhhh....Crap!"

Not having much time to do anything else except for thinking "This is gonna hurt." she braced herself for the fall.

SWOOSH, WHIP CRACK!

The sounds of tree branches breaking and whipping at her as she fell.

"AHHHHH!" she heard a quick scream. But thankfully, it wasn't hers this time.

She had stopped falling and landed on the ground but something broke her fall.

Lyna opened her eyes and found herself staring into a pair of blue eyes. She just stared at them for a while as she was trying to pull herself out of shock. As soon as she got herself pulled together again, it finally occurred to her that a person had broken her fall and she was right on top of him.

Scrambling to her feet and not daring to look at the stranger because she was red with embarrassment. All she could think of saying was "SORRY! SO SORRY!" and repeated herself about 3 times before the guy who broke her fall spoke up.

"Ugh..." the person grunted from the pain as he got up. "Don't worry about it, it could have been worst." He said weakly. Then he paused for a bit to give himself a few seconds to recuperate. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I think so. Thanks to you." Lyna responded shyly as she finally regained the confidence to look at the person who saved her life. She was caught totally off guard for what she saw.

He had blond hair and a VERY handsome face. He was wearing black pants and a yellow shirt that revealed his tanned and toned chests.

"Is something the matter?" the teenager said

Not realizing that she was staring at him snapped out of her trance and started to become beet red again.

"OH! SORRY! No, nothing's wrong. I...ummm...just had something in my eye..." she quickly made up a pathetic excuse but the guy didn't seem to notice.

"HEY! Are you two okay?!" a worried voice asked from behind her.

Lyna turned around and noticed that 4 other people were behind her.

"Of course, like I said, it could have been worst." The boy said with a smile on his face.

"Yes, thank you. Um, I don't think we've introduced each other yet. My name is Lyna."

"Oh yeah! Sorry about that! My name is Tidus. See the Ronso over there? That's Kimarhi, he doesn't talk too much" Tidus said pointing at a Blue Ronso standing beside a tree.

"Greetings, my name is Yuna." A girl a little bit shorter than Lyna greeted.

"And I'm Wakka!" A man with gravity defying hair said. "And this is Lulu"

Lulu was wearing a strange black dress where half of it was made out of belts.

"Definitely a fashion statement" Lyna thought to herself. But instead she just said with a smile "Nice to meet you all!"

She was becoming more comfortable with the group and felt like she could trust them so she asked them. "Um, I know I might sound weird right now but um, where am I?"

"Ah, Sin's toxin got to ya?" Wakka asked.

Not knowing what really happened to her. Lyna just agreed with him.

"Dat's alright, our buddy Tidus here has the same problem. Can you believe it? He says he's from Zanarkand! He got it pretty messed up in the head ya? But right now, we're in the Kilika Woods."

Surprised, Lyna shot a look at Tidus "He's from home too?" She thought to herself. But then thinking about Zanarkand made her remember about Alexis.

"GASP Alexis!"

"Who's Alexis?" Tidus asked

"My friend. She was with me before I landed here!"

"Maybe she's not far from here then, since she was with you." Lulu finally speaking up.

"Yes, that could be it." Lyna agreed with Lulu.

"Then why don't we help look for her on the way back to Kilika Port? We're also searching for a friend of ours." Yuna suggested. Lyna nodded.

"So where you from?" Wakka asked

Lyna was about to answer but then she remembered what Wakka mentioned about Zanarkand earlier. "I...can't remember...." After a pause she asked "So what's wrong from being from Zanarkand?"

"Zanarkand was destroyed 1000 years ago! Wow, the toxin's worst than I thought. No worries, we'll help you get it back ya?"

"And that's why she should be coming with us." A familiar voice said. "We wouldn't want to leave a person without any memory alone now would we?"

"AURON! Where in Spira have you been? We were looking for you!" Yuna said as she ran towards him.

"I was taking care of some business" he said grinning at Lyna.

Lyna was going to yell at him, ask him what the heck is going on and where her friend is but Tidus interrupted her.

"Common guys! Let's go and look for Lyna's friend before she gets eaten by a fiend or something." And then he started to run ahead.

"Ya, let's go. These woods aren't exactly safe." Wakka said and started to run up the path along with Tidus. Then everyone else except for Auron and Lyna followed them.

When everyone was gone, Lyna started to let her frustration out on Auron.

"YOU! It's you who brought me here. GET ME BACK NOW!"

"Can't. Not until you finish your story." Auron responded in a calm voice. "Now let's go find your friend." Without a moment's delay, Auron started to walk away.

"HEY! DON'T TURN YOUR BACK ON ME!" Lyna yelled as she ran up to him

He stopped for a moment and said "Here, a gift...use it well." Once again, he walked away.

Lyna didn't run after him this time. Instead she just stood there and was admiring the "gift" from Auron. It was a silver sword with golden decorations on it. The blade however was the most striking part. It was made out of Crystal with a red fluid flowing inside it that seemed to glow.

"Hey! You coming or what?" she heard Tidus yelling from a distance

"YEAH! I'M COMING!"

..............................................................................................................................................................................

Okay, before you yell at me for introducing Auron into the story at the wrong time, I just wanted to say that this way makes it easier for me to write the story and it would be less confusing. Just trust me on this one okay?Thus Tidus has already thrown a hissy fit because Auron won't bring him back to Zanarkand and Yes he knows about Jecth. Now, since you've read this far into the story, might as well and leave a review right guys?!?!? : ) Yay, I love you all.
