The Blitz stadium was full, Yuna, Rikku and the cat in the crowd. The Aurochs were in the lead, but the second half could mean anything.
Wakka paused with the ball to perform his sphere shot.
"GOAL!" shrieked the commentator. In his box, being just behind Yuna and Rikku, they could see him dancing circles around his chair.
Wakka swam a lap of honour around the sphere. Then something decidedly odd happened. He stopped while waving to the crowd. A shimmer passed through his body. He shivered.
"BLITZ-OFF!" cried the commentator. The teams shot forwards, the keepers back. Wakka hung back leaving the others to get the ball. That was odd enough, but then when he received the ball near to the goal he set up a shot Yuna had only seen once before.
The Sublimely Magnificent Jecht Shot Mark III.
The ball hit the first defender; the second…he spun around rapidly, kicking the ball. It flew into the goal; the goalie barely had time to move.
Wakka's body jolted; a shimmer passed out of it, and dissipated into evanescent mist.
"He needs medical attention!" shouted the hyper-active commentator.
"Rikku? Let's go!" shouted Yuna over the crowd. People began to move into the stairway, blocking the path to the sphere. She jumped onto the railing that lined the stair and slid down it, sparks flying from the metal underside of her boots.
"WOW!" screamed Rikku, flying behind her. "Almost as fun as when we all did it from the…air…ship…" She trailed off, trying not to mention Yuna's wedding to the multiply deceased Seymour Guado.
"Wakka?" shouted Yuna, immediately echoed by Rikku.
"He's here. He's unconscious though," shouted the on-hand medic.
Yuna and Rikku ran to his side, conjuring a cure spell as they ran.
"Hang in there Wakka."
White light gathered around her hands, she spun it into a ball and held it over his heart. It shot in faster than a bullet.
He coughed, spitting out half of the sphere, the rest was in his clothes.
"Tidus, what the hell d'you do to me?" he cried.
"Wakka, what happened?" asked Yuna quietly.
"Dat idiot Tidus kicked me right out of my body…I'll get him for dat…" Wakka grumbled. "Ya…" he added for good measure
Yuna frowned; her heart quailed when she heard his name aloud, for one of the first times since he'd died. She felt the onset of tears and looked at the ground, blinking them away furiously.
"I'm sorry Yuna; I didn't mean to upset you…" He looked disgraced.
"I'm just being silly, its okay…" she mumbled. "I need to accept that he's go…."
She stopped as she saw a shimmer pass behind Rikku, and then disappear into her body. Rikku looked at her hands and held them up before her, except it wasn't Rikku. The thing looked past the hand, and smiled at Yuna.
"I'm sorry I left, but I had to….forgive me…" The thing smiled.
"I'm sorry too Tidus, but remember that I love you…." She said so as he could hear.
"I'm sorry I never told you before, I love you too." He smiled as the shimmer passed from Rikku's body and meandered through the crowd before disappearing completely.
"What HAPPENED!" shrieked Rikku, having only just awakened from her stupor.
"Nothing, nothing at all…" sighed Yuna, not really paying any attention.
I know, I know, it's crapola, but you'll have to bear with me, I've really bad block....
I know that the Bit about Seymour is odd, but he died a few times, and I didn't have any other way to phrase it.
So sorry, but Please Review?
Peace out to m-fashion....luv y'all
