Chapter V-
I looked and saw Rikku next to me frantically changing outfits to get into her Machina Maw Outfit. I was shooting my gun recklessly, fearing the worse the whole time. The fiend before us was huge, I feared we had little chance of survival.
If you do anything to hurt my baby sister I'll kill you…
Rikku was really hurt and I was running out of elixirs. I threw one towards her, the last one. Now all we could do was pray for the best. We both continued to fight our hardest. But the monster didn't fall it continued to come at us, with more strength each time.
Take care of her alright? If you don't I may be the next to come from the dead and go on a killing spree.
It made a sudden swing hitting us both at once. A pool of crimson surrounded us both. I tried to get to her but I was too weak. She smiled weakly and slowly her eyes shut. I cried, shutting my eyes as well.
One day...he'll do something that will hurt you…
I had failed everyone…I proved them all right. I couldn't protect her.
"GIPPAL I SAID WAKE UP!!!"
My ears began to ring as I opened my eyes. Another dream…though it wasn't very surprising was it? I smiled up at the blonde who had a worried looked on her face. She lifted her hand to my face and touched my cheek, when her pulled back her hand I noticed the same thing she did. It was wet. Wet with my tears.
'Damn…' I cursed to myself.
"Are you okay Gippal?" she asked sitting down next to where I lay on the bed.
I just nodded. I didn't need her to worry about me. Her birthday was in two days and I had to make sure she had the best time of her life. It had to be just perfect.
"I'm fine angel, bad dream is all. No need to worry. Besides I have some shopping to do…that'll cheer me up!" I was lying again. I hated shopping, more than anything. Plus I wasn't fine…not in the least.
Rikku's face dropped. She stared and the wall for a second then the ceiling then he looked at me and put on a smile.
"Umm…yes well….no shopping today we have a mission!" she beamed. "Baralai wants us to check out Bevelle Underground again. Says he thinks some fiends might have broken in. Can't be too much trouble though. I mean me and you can handle a couple of fiends right?"
Now it was my turn to do a face drop. I didn't' want to fight. Actually I didn't want HER to fight. What if she got hurt? I would never be able to deal with myself again.
"Do we have to? Can't Yuna and her ditzy husband do it?" I suggested, stretching and pulling myself out of bed.
Rikku glared and got up too.
"I'm tired of you making fun of him!" she pouted angrily. "Besides if he's such a ditz then he wouldn't be good enough for the job."
"Hate to break it to ya, but your kinda a ditz to…" I chuckled, but then stopped suddenly feeling a little bad. "I'm just kidding of course. But still why do we have to go?"
Rikku smiled for a second. "Baralai asked specifically for us, he claims we are the best of the best. Personally I think he is sucking up to you. I mean…he is after the spot of best man am I right?"
I nodded. "Then I'll go alone. You can go hang out with Yuna or something today."
Rikku looked perplexed at me for a second. Then her confused glance changed to a frustrated one.
"Why can't we just both go? Don't you think I can handle a fiend?" she growled, placing her hand at her hips. She looked so cute when she was angry, cute but deadly and violent.
"I just don't want you to get hurt…"
"WHAT!?" she yelled. "I think I can handle it. If I do remember correctly, you got injured on the way to Vegnagun. Am I right?"
"And just WHO saved your sorry Al bhed hind when that possessed Guado came back huh?!" I argued back, without really thinking.
Rikku threw her hands up in frustration. She then shot me a look, her green eyes were shimmering with unshed tears. She frowned and turned to exit our bedroom.
"I'll tell Paine to check it out alright?" Rikku sighed pausing at the doorway. "I'm going to Yuna's just give me some space today alright?"
I nodded dumbly. "Alright…thanks cutie."
She frowned again and left Gippal alone in the room.
A few second later he heard the front door slam shut. He could tell he made her mad, but at least she was safe.
"Now for some shopping enjoyment." I smiled entering my bathroom to get ready for a day's of shopping.
Author's Note: Ooohhh....Okay earlier I was suffering from just a bit of writers block but now I know like exactly what to have in the next couple chapters. YAY! Well...anyway R&R I love those who have reviewed so far. At the end I'll post all my thanks and stuff...but I decided to wait till after I'm done so i can just do everyone at once. So sorry...you'll have to wait for your personal thanks! Well...have a happy umm...day! Yeah...that's it...I need sugar now...goodbyes!
Disclaimer: INTRODUCING my LIFESIZE Gippally doll! He comes with sweet catch phrases like my oh so favorite, "Absi-Posi-You Better Believe it!", plus he even comes with a Rikku doll to keep him company! There lips are magnetized so they are drawn to each other. Right now I own all my scetches on how I'm going to make this work, but even if I do I think I'll have to smack a disclaimer on them as well...I may put something like..."SquareEnix created these WONDERFUL people BUT I wrote a story about them...I mean...made these dolls." Sound good? I thought not...
