Chapter4:

"Now what do we do? Bevelle is totally deserted" Paine said in her usual, unemotional way.

"I....I...don't know" Yuna replied her eyes full of confusion (A/N: is it true she has one blue, and one green eye? Tell me in the reviews plz!).

"Turn that frown upside down! I bought a NEW scarf....I didn't know mail order was so efficient!" Rikku shouted across from where Shinra was sitting.

"Where did you get the gil THIS time Rikku?" asked Yuna

"Let's just say.... hide EVERYTHING valuable under the bed from now on!"

"RIIIIIKKUUUU!....." Yuna replied through gritted teeth.

"Cummon now guys....what are we gonna do now!" Buddy said

"I'm so glad I bought this gunner dress sphere Rikku!"

"Why?"

"Let's just say..... HIDE UNDER THE BED EVERY NIGHT! "

"Why?"

"You just don't get it do you!"

"Rikku....Yuna's not really gonna shoot you, Yuna stop bein....."

"Yuna was gonna shoot me?! Why?"

.:In Besaid:.

Come on Lu...Please can we take Wakka junior (A/N: or Vidina, which I have only just found out on final fantasy x2... lets just stick with Wakka jr for now ok?) to the BlitzBall game? Pleeease?"

"Wakka....he's only 1 year old.....He can't even talk yet! How will he understand it? He could get hurt"

Wakka began pacing, Wakka junior. turned in his bed.

"Wakka....stop.....you'll wake him up!"

(A/N: I know that this scene was reeeeallly random, but work with me here! Did it ever occur to you I LIKE random things!)

.:Back on the Airship:.

"I think you guys need some serious cooling off time" said Buddy in his usual seat at the airships controls.

Yuna sat back in her chair and thought "well...any ideas?"

"THEMEPARK!" shouted (guess who!?) Rikku.

"um....no"

"Disco!" muttered Brother.

"yeah!" they all chorused together.

"Do we have to?" asked Paine shooting a dangerous look at Brother, who looked away quickly.

"yup....location?"

"What about Luca?"

.:In Luca:.

A man was sitting by the fountain, with his trainer dress sphere on, which was in the form of a snowy leopard.

He threw a gil into the fountain.

"I wish I could be a sphere hunter"

He threw in another

"and make some friends"

.:Back on airship:.

The Gullwings were all busy getting ready for the disco, even barkeep was sponging his skin which had been getting a little dry lately (shudders).

Soon all of them were ready wearing their favourite clothes.

Yuna was wearing a sky blue vest top, a silver skirt and her new faerie earrings and Rikku, her thief dress sphere,

But Paine was not exactly happy about the night's arrangements and didn't bother getting changed.

.:Luca:.

The Gullwings jumped off the airship once it had landed and went to sit by the fountain.

Brother was staring at Yuna whilst the rest of them decided where to go on their night out.

"Any preferences to where we go?" asked Buddy "Brother, you're the boss, where should we go?"

"Hmmmm.....Yuuuuuna.......mwahuuuuh?......what?huh?"

"Where should we go lover boy?" asked Rikku

"Hey, shutup Rikku....don't talk to me like that! As Buddy said, I'm in-charge!"Brother shouted "Where would you like to go Yuna?" Brother asked, a little too intimately.

"Oh, um, how about that place over there?" she pointed along the road to a several storey building, lit up with green and pink lights that swung from left to right, lighting up the entire building.

"Great choice!" said Brother "I was going to choose that, we're so alike!"

"whatever!" Rikku murmured into her scarf.

The six gullwings and barkeep trudged over to it where a shifty looking man was guarding the doorway.

"Who the hell are you!" he asked Brother.

He was wearing a dark suit and shiny black shoes. His hair was slicked back and dull grey in colour.

"Where sphere hunters, and I would like to go in here".

"Well you can't cause....." he trailed off as soon as he saw Yuna, who was framed by the light from outside, making her seem almost, unreal.

"Of course you and...her can come in!" he stepped aside revealing a long dark stairway that vanished into the darkness below.

Brother glared at the man's lingering gaze at Yuna, and proceeded down the black metal spiral steps.

They came out into a well-lit basement room with a stage at the far corner of the room with a band playing some kind of jazz music.

The main singer was gripping the microphone firmly in his right hand and singing so close to it, you could hear the spitting and rugged breath as he formed the words in his mouth.

The customers of the basement-bar were clearly not impressed by the band's useless attempts at jazz, and were ignoring them.

As the singer started to get frustrated and gave it his all, a woman in her late 20's stood up and saw Yuna entering with the rest of the gullwings.

A look of surprise shot across her face. She immediately had an idea to get the "jazz band" of the stage for the night.

"Hey, everyone! It's Yuna and the Gullwings!" she shouted across the room to the rest of the customers.

Everyone turned to face the door. Quickly, they all realised that Yuna was a well-known pop star and had asked her, and the rest of the Gullwings to give them a song.

"Oh...um...well"

Yuna turned to ask the others, but saw the rest of the Gullwings already reaching into their bags for their favourite dress spheres.

Barkeep meanwhile, had spotted a young, female hypello sitting glumly in the corner, and was making his flat-footed way towards her.

A figure was enclosed in the darkness of the bar, but seemed as though he wanted the song to start, so Yuna, inspired by him, changed into her songstress dress sphere and slowly made her way to the stage, closely followed by her companions.

The "crowd" roared it's approval as the Jazz band they loathed so much, was forced off the stage.

Shinra began to make a temporary video screen to make the room seem like a concert arena (A/N: funny what people carry in bags these days! Port-a-Concert, just what I need!).

Once it was all set up and ready to go, Yuna took up her usual position at the centre of the stage.

The music started, and the figure at the bar shifted in his seat as the rest of the Gullwings stepped forward.

Yuna began to sing. She could feel Lenne's emotions rising up inside her, but she had learnt to control them.

She, and the Gullwings danced and sang until the music stopped all to soon, and their spectators moaned as they made their way off the stage.

Yuna smiled, she hadn't had this kind of reception for years.

As the last Gullwing, Paine, came off the stage,the stranger stood up, and walked over to them.

"I enjoyed your song, Yuna" he said "Is it true that you are sphere hunters also?"

"Yes"

"Yep"

"You bet"

"Good, can I join?"

The Gullwings looked at his smartly dressed figure and powerful shoulders in disbelief, surely a man of this almost royal form wouldn't usually want to give it all up to be just a normal, un-paid, Gullwing.

"Could we be excused to...um...discuss this offer?"

"Oh, but of course!" he replied, winking at Paine, who swore at him.

He swore back, she stared at him hard, un-blinking, and turned with the rest of the sphere hunters.

"NO,NO AND NO!" she told the Gullwings

"Why? I think he's kinda cute!"

"Yeah, why shouldn't we let him join?"

"What do you think Brother?" Yuna asked

"Oh, whatever makes you happy...darling!"

"Brother, let's just pretend that that last comment, DIDN'T come out ok?" Rikku told Brother sharply.

Brother looked at the floor and stared at his shoe-laces. (A/N: does anyone know what footwear Brother wears? I'm using trainers in this story).

"Are we all agreed? He can join?"

"I still think he's a freak!" Paine replied looking in his direction.

He wore a trainer dress sphere, his weapon, a snowy coloured leopard that lay at his feet obediently.

His hair was pulled back into a blue pony tail, just as glossy as his leopard companion's fur.

The stranger caught her gaze and winked at her again.

Paine was furious, he swore back at her for God sake! And winking? She was confused.

While she had been caught up in her thoughts, she hadn't realised that the others had already started to make their way over to him.

"Damn it!" she thought, "Who the hell is this guy anyway?!"

A/N: ok, I'm not going to ask you to review it like everyone else, I'm TELLING you to!
