Just around the corner
Disclaimer: I own nothing as per usual except a cotton bud (gets chased by angry dragon that steals cotton bud) I own nothing.
This is the fourth chapter of my story, which I heavily procrastinated to complete. I had to go back to school and I had no ideas for it or for the next chapters. So if any of the reviewers want to change the fate of the story then tell me and I will consider your views. On with the fic
Wakka POV
Its funny how the people of Spira can tune into strong emotions, the day HE left everybody on Spira felt a sudden sadness in their hearts. They all knew someone had left, we all felt the loss deeply but none so deeply as Yuna. For days she would sit on the hill in Besaid and stare at the ocean whistling, of course no one came well except for Kimahri telling her to go in before she got ill. Kimahri went back to Gagazet and that didn't help Yuna. She would cry a lot in secret, we all knew though because her eyes would be red, then Lulu told her not to feel ashamed of her tears. I've seen Yuna cry a lot more since then.
I have a strange feeling deep in my gut that he hasn't left though, it may sound like a cheesy play but I'm sure he's not dead. Three days ago when Jassu and Keepa were starting their trip to Kilika to help repair it, I think there was a strange group helping too called the Young League or something, Jassu wanted to join and Keepa wanted a holiday there. Anyway as I we ran down to the dock I saw lots of people milling around talking, they must be the new tourists; Cid thought that Besaid would make a brilliant tourist resort and sends boats full or people here to sit on the beaches or annoy the villagers. It was a bad idea and I hate it!
I ran to the boat and caught snatches of their conversations,
"... The high summoner,"
"I love the beach..."
"Did you see her boyfriend on the boat?" I stopped running and Jassu tripped over me.
"What's your problem ya?" he said angrily, I helped him to stand and told him to get on the boat and told him I'd see him later, he muttered sulkily and jogged across the beach. I turned to face the tourists who mentioned Yuna's boyfriend.
"... Has a boyfriend? What about that blonde guy the helped her pilgrimage? He's her boyfriend isn't he?"
"Yeah that's the guy I saw, blonde hair and a funny outfit. As soon as the boat docked he took off to the village." I had heard enough, I started to walk back to the village when I heard my name being called. It was Jassu and Keepa; I waved at them and then ran. My head was full of thoughts; He couldn't be back from the dead that was impossible! I must have walked past him when walking to the docks. I began jogging full of hope that Yuna's love had returned to her.
The beautiful cascading waterfall came into view and I jogged faster, but this time it was in worry. There was a machina fight up ahead on a bridge, machina fights are a real pain because they don't get tired and last for a long time. This time there were at least seven of the things and they looked like they were beating up a weaker machine. They were blocking my way so I would have to wait till they finish; hopefully it wouldn't be long if the weak one gave in. I sat down and span my blitzball on my index finger. Suddenly there was a human yell coming from the middle of the machina, I jumped up and strained to see any life there, I wasn't going to jump into the fight just because I heard a yell. One of the machina might have a voice program. After staring a few seconds I caught sight of something that made me jump into the fight without another moments hesitation. A yellow sleeve.
I threw my ball as hard as I could at the nearest machina; it didn't do much damage except catch its attention but that was all I needed. I grabbed a small rock and threw it as hard as I could at the metal fiend, the rock made a slight dent on impact but it wasn't much good. The machina was getting closer and I was annoying it greatly. It walked jittery on two thin legs that were much too small for the huge tin body. On the end of the also thin arms were 4 huge claws. They were poised in front of its body, ready to rip my skin to shreds. I jumped backwards and threw another rock. I did this several times until it had moved onto the middle of the bridge. I took aim with my blitzball and hit it in the leg; it lost its balance and moved its arms at either side to keep from toppling over. I dived forward and shoved it to one side making it fall over the rope into the water below. I fell after it and only just managed to grab the rope in time. I strenuously pulled myself back onto the bridge and ran for another machina.
Another yell broke out but this was much weaker, I was running out of time. God how I wished Rikku was there, then I remembered that she might be in the village, I wanted to run and get her but the machina and Him were still blocking the way. I had to find another way, I grabbed a handful; of rocks and flung them straight at the fight hoping to miss Him. All the machina faced me and I yelled.
"Come on you worthless pieces of metal! Show me what you got ya?" it was stupid because a second later I realised the machina could understand English and were coming to take me up on that challenge. All of them! I grabbed more rocks and threw them, but I was running out of rocks and they were getting closer. Before they reached me I peered at Him to see if it really was him. The blonde was slowly standing up. He looked at me and started to run for the machina with his sword in hand, ready to take them on. I yelled at him to run to the village but he paid no attention. The machina reached me and I threw my ball at them. One dodged to the side and caught me with its claw. A shriek rang through the air and I hoped it wasn't me. It was a girl that looked amazingly like,
"Rikku!" I yelled before everything went dark.
Ok that was the next chapter, a bit longer than the others and probably written badly but I hope you like it. I took the style of writing from Melvin Burgess because he writes brilliant books! Review review review!
