-----Overhearing the Truth-----

-Aboard Cid's Airship-

Rikku walks down a random corridor in the huge airship, it has been almost six weeks since the defeat of Sin and Yuna and the others are back in Besaid. Rikku stops and looks up at a wall, '... I miss you, Yunie.' she says to herself 'Ever since I met you, everything's been different. I can't stop thinking about you. I think--' she cuts her thoughts off there, "No way!" she states instead, shaking her head before continuing down the corridor, "I couldn't have 'those' kinda feelings for Yunie! Afterall, We're first cousins... right?"

After a few more steps, Rikku hears Brother's voice emanating from inside a room and she steps closer to the door. Rikku cracks open the door slightly to see Brother and Cid arguing about something...

"Pid Vydran!" Brother states, "Fa sicd damm Rikku dra dnidr!"

"Crid oan dnyb, puo!" Cid responds, "Ed yeh'd dryd ayco..."

"Pid Vydran!" Brother says again, "Cra ryc y nekrd du ghuf dra dnidr, dryd cra ech'd ouin naym tyikrdan!"

'!?' Rikku gasps silently at the statement...

"E dumt oy du crid oan dnyb!" Cid states, covering Brother's mouth with his hands, "Tuh'd oui ghuf dryd cusauha luimt pa mecdahehk!?" he then releases Brother and walks slowly over to the door and swings it open... to find no one there. View switches around a nearby corner, where Rikku is standing with her back against the wall.

Rikku breathes a sigh of relief when she hears the door close, 'Did I just hear what I thought I did...?' she wonders 'If that's true, then... !!' she quickly heads toward the bridge and uses the savesphere there to exit the airship and appear in Kilika, where the airship is currently docked, "I've gotta find a way to get back to Besaid!" the Al Bhed girl states.

-Besaid-

Yuna appears downhearted as she walks along the beach in Besaid. It isn't that she's having trouble moving on, it's more that she misses someone... someone that exists, someone that brought something into her life, someone that she can't forget and... it isn't the person she thought it would be, "... Rikku." she says in a hushed whisper, followed by a sigh, 'I... shouldn't feel this way about you... especially, being that we are related, but I...' and her mind wanders back to the Pilgimage...

-)Flashback - Thunder Plains(-

Yuna was trying to decide whether or not to accept Maester Seymour's proposal... Rikku was cringing as she was terrified by the lightning and thunder. Then, After some conversation, Rikku stepped closer to Yuna, "Yunie..." she said, the name that only Rikku called the Summoner.

Rikku stepped even closer to Yuna and placed her hands on her shoulders, then a crack of thunder was heard and the Al Bhed girl turned her attention to the raging storm, "Quiet!" she snapped, then turned back to Yuna, "I wish we could help, Yuna. Somehow, someway..."

"It's okay..." Yuna responded, placing her own hand on one of Rikku's, "I'll be fine." she nodded once in assurance.

-)End Flashback(-

-)Flashback - Bevelle-Via Purifico(-

"Yunie!!" Rikku exclaimed happily as she literally glomped the Summoner, "I was so worried about you! It's good to have you back!" she hugged Yuna tightly.

Yuna slowly encircled her arms around Rikku and nodded, "Thank you." she replied.

-)End Flashback(-

-)Flashback - Mt. Gagazet(-

"Yuna, I say... no." Rikku said to the brownhaired Summoner, "If we go down there, then you'll..."

"Rikku... You're a true friend, and I thank you, but..." Yuna responded, "I must go... down, to Zanarkand."

"I'm not saying we shouldn't go." Rikku said, "But shouldn't we think about it some more?" "There's gotta be some kinda way we can save you, Yuna!" she states.

"All my life, I knew this moment would come." Yuna said, shaking her head slightly.

"Yunie..." Rikku said sadly, lowering her gaze to the ground.

Yuna stepped toward Rikku, dropping a sphere in the process, and wrapped her arms around the Al Bhed girl's waist in a comforting hug. Yuna laid her forehead against Rikku's and said, "Thank you, Rikku. Thank you for everything." the two pulled back and looked at one another.

"Don't say that, Yunie!" Rikku softly stated, laying her face against Yuna's left shoulder, "It's not over yet!" you could tell there were tears in her voice, as Yuna raised her arms to Rikku's back. They stood like that for a few moments, while most of the others looked away.

"Tell Cid... 'thank you'." Yuna said into Rikku's left ear.

"No..." Rikku responds, "You can tell him, yourself."

Yuna pushed Rikku back slightly, her hands moving to Rikku's arms, "Please..." she asked.

"Yunie, Don't say that because..." Rikku responded, then shakes her head somewhat and adds, "We're gonna see each other again, okay?"

-)End Flashback(-

"I think... I have fallen in love with you, Rikku..."

Yuna's words go undetected by anyone... except her 'older sister', Lulu. Lulu turns and heads back toward Besaid Village. Yuna walks out to the end of the pier and looks out across the waves of the ocean. She brushes some hair behind her right ear and holds her hand there as a soft breeze blows through, Yuna closes her eyes and breathes in the air of the breeze. After a few more minutes, The former Summoner turns and heads back toward the village as night starts to close in.

-Aboard the S.S. Liki-

Rikku is sitting at the front-end of the deck, with her legs draped off the front, and kicking her legs back-and-forth, "How...?" she questions herself, "... how will I tell Yunie?" "It's not like I can just go in and say, 'Hi, Yunie! Y'know, I found out that I'm not actually Cid's daughter. Oh! And, by the way, I'm in love with you!'" the Al Bhed girl says, then shakes her head, "Lnyb! Drec ech'd kuhhy pa yc ayco yc E rubat..."

-)Flashback(-

-Al Bhed Home-Summoner's Sanctum-

"If a Summoner gets the Final Aeon..." Rikku explained, "They can beat Sin. Yunie could, but..." "If she summons the Final Aeon, Yunie will..." she continued, "Yunie will DIE, y'know!?" "If Yunie completes the Final Summoning, the Final Aeon will kill her too!" the Al Bhed girl dropped to her knees, crying into her hands.

-)End Flashback(-

Rikku decides to head into the cabin to take a nap, as it's already dark out, and she knows she'll be at Besaid by morning.

-----!!To Be Continued!!-----

Ramblings: Well, How is it so far? Review and tell me. Oh yeah, In this fic, I'm including flashbacks from the actual game that contained Rikku/Yunie moments and whatnot. Btw, Al Bhed Translation as follows:

"But Father!" Brother states, "We have to tell Rikku the truth!"

"Shut yer trap, boy!" Cid responds, "It ain't that easy..."

"But Father!" Brother says again, "She has a right to know the truth, that she isn't your real daughter!"

"I told ya to shut yer trap!" Cid states, covering Brother's mouth with his hands, "Don't you know that someone could be listening!"

... the Al Bhed girl says, then shakes her head, "Crap! This isn't gonna be as easy as I hoped..."

Well, That's it for this chapter. See you in the next one. Ja!
