Just around the corner
The fifth chapter! I love this story! I mean I got 14 reviews woooohooooo ill be quiet. Before I start I want to thank Sonne-chan and Heath 999 for reviewing more than once but I would also like to thank Yunie-star- tidus-cutie for offering me a dish-washing-liquid-eating beaver and Korean boron, lunarian, Bernie, oezi, Kat, Scott-land and jasinya for the great reviews. (Gives everyone a well trained acid spitting badger, new from the "lets give badgers cool powers so they don't get hurt labs", which I am the boss of.) Id best start writing now don't you think?
Rikku POV
It was a brilliant sunny day! Wakka had gone to see Jassu and Keepa off; they were going to Kilika. I was bored, Lulu and Yuna were weaving and I can't stand doing that. Just sitting around really still for ages messing about with some string. I have to move about! After annoying Lu for a bit she got annoyed and told me to go to the beach and meet Wakka. I thought it was a great idea so I ran out of the village. Along the path was a bit of chaos, I shivered in excitement when I saw what the chaos was. A machina fight! Splitting them up is soo much fun because I get to dismantle them. There were quite a lot so I decided to wait until a few went down before I could take them. I'm not stupid enough to dive head first into a fight. Well there was a bit of commotion on the other side of the bridge so I decided to nosy my way over there, Wakka was throwing stones at the machina yelling something. I thought to myself "Wakka, that's it, I always told you that the hair style would pick up alien messages into your brain and make you crazy." Some machina went towards him and he backed away. A huge one slinked to the side then charged forward. I covered my eyes and shrieked!
I couldn't believe it when Wakka went down! He's always been the strong one that never stops the fight. The other machina were starting to gather around Tidus... wait a minute Tidus! That was the most surprised I had ever been, including when Brother got me a birthday present, he NEVER gets me presents so I was like really happy. Anyway, I got over the shock of Tidus being alive quickly because I knew I had to help fend off the machinas. I jumped toward Wakka's body but 3 machina got it the way, I jumped on the front of the closest one and pulled out the poorly guarded circuits on it. It fizzled a bit and fell to the floor in pieces.
I dived to the side to do the same to a smaller machina; but the circuits had been welded in pretty well. I struggled with it then the beast turned around and jabbed at me with one of its spiky hand claws. I flung myself away but it caught me in the leg and tore the skin. I felt blood pour down my thigh. I shrugged it off and tried to get away from the compact fiend that was quickly jerking towards me on its thin metal legs. I searched in my pockets and found two grenades, grabbing one I threw it as hard as I could at the legs. The grenade exploded and the machina went down. I turned to see how Tidus was doing, he seemed to be having trouble but at least he was conscious. Wakka on the other hand was still out and needed help more; I sprinted to him shoving the remaining grenade inside the claw of the last fiend in my way. It looked at the object in its palm in almost a comical expression, well if machinas can have expressions. I reached Wakka and put my finger on his neck. There was a pulse but it wasn't too strong. He had a huge lump on his head and a deep gash in his side. I dragged him out of the way from the fight while the machina were busy. There was a yell and I knew it was Tidus. Whirling around I saw 4 more machinas fly down onto the bridge from the sky, Tidus was already having difficulty keeping his 3 machinas at bay but when the new lot came and attacked him, I knew he stood no chance.
It needed more grenades to stop the machinas but seeing as I didn't have any, I figured that pulling them to pieces would do just as well. The machinas all attacked Tidus at the same time and he went down, obviously exhausted from all his fighting earlier, though I was surprised that there were only two machina down near him. The sword mustn't have been very good. I noticed that it had broken into shards at the edge of the battle. He must have been fending them off with his hands. I was impressed. But I had to act fast to save him. I ran at the machinas in a frenzy, taking two down before they knew what had hit them. Two more turned around and seized me in their claws. I was powerless. Struggling with all my might didn't do anything at all. Using my last burst of energy I rooted in my pockets, pulled out a potion and threw it at Wakka. It landed a metre away from him but thankfully it didn't smash. Struggling for one last time with my energy depleted and adrenaline gone. Before I passed out I wearily lifted my head and saw the machina lift Tidus over the shoulder of one then it flew off. I let out a sigh and then nothing but a deep black took me.
Ok that's the fifth chapter. I didn't think it was as good as the others but tell me your opinion. Ill carry on writing till I finish the story because I have my badger cheerleaders cheering me on. (If you would like to make any badger donations I would happily accept them into my badger village... we even have a little badger school for all the little badgers.) Well see ya and don't forget to review or ill send my badger army on you.
