"I...just can't...keep this up anymore. My magic doesn't seem to work. I am afraid that I will have to tell her that he can never come back." A tiny child sighed. He was wearing a velvet cloak, lined with gold ribbons and shiny diamonds. The child looked as if he had just come out of a storm, for his body was drenched with sweat. Lying before him was what seemed to be a human's body, covered in torn cloths, in which he was trying to revive by using his powers. The child had been trying for hours, but all he gained was pain and frustration. Overcome by sadness and misfortune, the child then decided to take a break by sitting upon a soft bed of flowers that lied before him. "These flowers...would be a good place to rest in..." The child then slowly began to shut his eyes, and almost fell into a deep slumber, until he heard a tiny moan coming from the human's corpse. The child then got up as fast as a racehorse, and rushed to its side. The child then lifted the cloths off of it's face, and revealed it to be a young man, with short, blond hair and tan colored skin. The man then began to open up his eyes, and they appeared to be the same color as the sky. "Well, you are finally back, Tidus."

Slowly, Tidus's eyes began to focus in on the child, and he then jumped back in shock and disbelief. "It is alright, I won't bite." The child then smiled as he began to take off the remaining cloths that covered Tidus's body. Once revealed, Tidus could now see the same blue shirt, black shorts, and silver necklace that he wore before he faded away on the airship two years ago.

"How can I be alive? I was just a dream, wasn't I? And all of the fayth disappeared after Sin was defeated, so why am I here now?" Tidus proclaimed, but the child just stared back at him. Just then, Tidus recalled just who this child was. He was the fayth that created him and his father back in the re-created Zanarkand, and the fayth was the only being who could bring him back to life.

"Well, a young woman wished for me to bring you back to life, and after all of the favors that she had done for me and my people, I simply could not refuse her request. So, enjoy yourself, for my work here has been completed." Just then, the fayth began to glow a bluish-green color, and started to disintegrate. Tidus the leaped off of the ground, and ran after the fayth, but it was too late.

"Damn. I never got the chance to thank him." Tidus then glanced up at the sky as he watched his 'life bringer' fade away into Spira's skyline. "Well, there isn't anything to do now except get the hell outta here!" Tidus's face then began to glow as brightly as the sun as he raced through the Farplane, searching for a way to escape and see his love, Yuna, again. However, little did Tidus know that this was the beginning of an adventure that would cause him to risk losing everything that he cared about.
