Final Feminist X- the other story
Authors Notes:I had this idea a while ago. I was just wondering why the lead is always a male. I m not complaining they are very pretty to look at...heh-heh C.G boys. But I thought why don't we do a bit of a switch-a-roo and see what happens. I have read load of fic and I write original stuff but this is my first one so feed back is much appreciated. toot

Listen to my story. This may be our last chance.
Zanarkand. A shiny city that sat on water its bright lights creating an unnatural glow announcing its existence. A dull raw emitted from it that was the inhabitants as they waited chattering in anticipation for something to start. A lean girl of seventeen was greeting excited fans on a dock. She was Tida star player of the Zanarkand abes the first girl to become really popular in years. Her father Jecht had been a national celebrity and one would think she got her talent and fame from him but his disappearance ten years ago left nothing but another excuse to have a Blitz-Ball tournament in some ones honor.
The blond girl shook her soft spiky hair and smile impishly to her adoring fan boys. She knew most of them didn't take her seriously. They only followed her every game in the sphere to see her athletic, but still well endowed, female form in action. Still she played to them loving the attention. What's wrong with liking cute boys? She step up to some of them who where much younger than her enjoying the reaction she had on them.
"Can I have you autograph" one shyly asked holding out a blue ball.
"Of cores" she grabbed his pen and the ball scrawling a signature that look more like some new galaxy than a name. They wished her luck for the game eyeing her nervously and blushing in her Abes uniform. She flirted a little with them pleading through batted eyelashes to cheer really load as she was a bout to score. Tida like to ensure she would have an ample amount of noise from the crowd as she was playing. It boosted her ego and put the other team off. She to squeeze through the crowed nodding smiling and winking as the time called for it.
A group of tiny girls in Abes colors ran towards her tripping over them selves.
"Tida Tida! Can you sing this?" there was three of them all dressed like her in black overalls with yellow tops and the red Zanarkand Abes Symbol scrawled across the back.
"No probs" if there was a Tida fandom bigger than her fanboys it was her baby fangirls. (Not to be confused with her big fan girls that sometimes had ...unusual... fantasies).
The three youngsters stood hopping on one foot then the other giggling at each other. The other two inspired by their friend success held up their Blitz balls to be signed.
"Please?"
"Me Too"
"Alrighty take it easy" Tida smiled agian, warmly this time, taking one ball then the other. The kids didn't move after that but rather looked at each other tilling their heads as if trying to goad each other in to doing something. Tida was confused, amused but also possible late.
"Well gotta go cheer for me" she said hoping to move them out of her way. With the prospect that they could miss their moment the girls spoke.
"3...2...1 teach us how to Blitz!" the all chanted. Tida giggeld
"Maby tonight...um...well" she had a soft spot for girls who wanted to play. Blitz ball was such a mans sport.
You cant tonight.
Tida glanced across to where the noise had come from. A purple hooded child was swaying slightly his gaze although hidden beneath his hood boring into Tida. She frowned but found herself telling the girls that she would have to do it tomorrow hoping they couldn't find her again coze she would probably have a hang over from the after party. Now she would be late and who was the purple figuer.
She scooted the girls and took up a loping run as she making her way to the stadium. A huge banner with a rough looking handsome man smirked down at her from its side. Not wanting to acknowledge her father she merely 'humpedh' and kept running.
The cities nosie was growing louder and was resonating from the huge stadium located in the city. The Blitz fans where getting excited and few paid attention to the man over the load speaker rabbiting on in the way commentators do. He stopped himself from reminiscing about Jects disappearance and turn his attention to his offspring as the famed girl ran into his view.
"I know there's a lot of people out there today to see the star of the Abes! In just one year, she's become the team's number one player! She's Jecht's blood, and the new hope of
blitzball! What kind of super play will she show us today? Will we see fathers
Legendary shot? I don't think I'm the only one excited here, folks!"
Back on the ground Tida knew they wouldn't dream of starting the game without their star player but still wanted to get there was still running. A huge crowed of fans where making their way into the stadium blocking her way. There was no quick way through.
Time for the old yell and shove method
"Make way, make way! Coming through," as soon as the words where out of her mouth she knew that was a bad idea. The crowd screamed and flocked to her packing in tight from all sides she sighed and tried to find a path through.
"Sorry! Hey, I'm gonna be late! Hey, Let go of me!"
Some guy had just grabbed her waist in a clumsy grope she narrowed her blue eyes aimed a punch and let fly. The guy was floored this created enough shock so a clear way was opened up for Tida to move. She grabbed the opportunity and ran inside Lucky part of her reputation was knocking guys who gave her unwanted attention out or her career could be ruined. The media loved to tare in to her but as long as she kept winning and "taking one for the girls" she should be ok.
The team was waiting for her and cheered when she came in. the only other girl in the there walked up to her locking her head under her arm and marched her back to the team huddle.
"Fan girls or boys Tida," she asked letting go of her head and crouching with the team. The question went unanswered as Tida went over the game plan with her team. The rest of the people listening where guys but at least they didn't try and run the girls down like a lot of obnoxious boys did. Her Blitz team mates where the only guys she had any respect for as they in turn respected her as a player not as some sex object like she was marketed. She didn't mind this image it kept up the noise in the spear and always ment her ego was never to low. The rest of the team accepted this and basked in reflected glory.
The plan confirmed Tida as center player took the match ball and followed by he team went to wait at her position. An official smiled at her and opened the door to the players trough a narrow alleyway that ran around the bottom of the spear and had an inch or two of water on the bottom of it. This was quite time. She seated herself at the seat marked "Center-Home" the ball cradled to her hip. With her free hand she cupped water and let it soak her hair getting a feel for the temperature of the water and letting its liquid softness calm her so she could focus. Dripping she leaned her head back on the troughs wall and listened to the quite. The stadium had been silenced, as was tradition before the Blitz spear was filled and the players presented to their fans.
In her element she relaxed quickly aware that a few paces either side but out of site of her where her teammates. Completely at ease she closed her eyes letting the excitement of being a celebratie filter away. She focused her thoughts on winning. A drop ran off her yellow hair and hit the water at her feet.
Boom!
The Spear machine kicked in to life and Tida's eyes opened and dilated in anticipation. Music blared across the stadium fighting for dominance over thousands of whooping, cheering fans. The screams charged Tida like a bolt of lighting Every nerve stood on end. Her was a body a tightly coiled piece of energy waiting to be unleashed at the right moment. In complete control and loving every minute of it the girl stood up to meet her cheering fans. If it was possible the crowed screamed louder. The silhouette of the beautiful blonde girl in a Blitz uniform tight and revealing with ball balanced between her arm and her hip was too much. The noise positively deafened any one who was not screaming too.
The water sphere in front of her had steadily had been getting bigger but with a thundering noise that drowned out the fans and the music the water exploded out and became the playing field for the Jecht Memorial Cup. Tida savored the crowd's cheers a moment longer before diving spectacularly in to the shimmering sphere and placing the ball in its starting position. She swam to position listening to the crowd, a little quieter now and dulled through the water. Staring in to the opponent's eyes she smirked. The starlet of the Zanerkand Abes was confident and ready to show once again why she was the only one everyone talked about.
Blitz off!
