And one final note: Keep in mind that Tidus is possessed by Shuyin, and since Shuyin has total control over Tidus, he will be talking through Tidus's body. Shuyin has also possessed Paine, so keep that in mind as well.
"Hey Paine! Welcome home! It took ya long enough!" a mysterious voice shouted from deep within the airship as Shuyin and Paine climbed aboard. The inside of the airship was lined with blue lights, and the ground was covered with coal-colored tiles, which caused for Shuyin big boots to squeak every time he moved. As Shuyin and Paine walked up the large ramps that made up the airship, they could begin to faintly hear tiny footsteps, and eventually, a small figure emerged right before their eyes. Once they got closer to the figure, they could see that it was a young woman, with light blond hair, some of the hair placed in braids, and Tonberry-colored eyes. This woman also wore a bright yellow strapless top, a fiery-red colored scarf, and dark green hot pants. "Hey, who's the cutie standing behind you, Paine? Your new boyfriend?" The young woman explained as she ran over to Paine.
"I think that you already know who this is, Rikku." Paine remarked as she then grabbed Shuyin and pulled him out in front of her.
"It...can't be...is that really you, Tidus?" Rikku exclaimed as she jumped back as quickly as a frog, escaping danger. Shuyin then slightly nodded his head, and Rikku then jumped up and hugged Shuyin as tightly as a grizzly bear. "I am so happy that you are back! I thought that you were a total goner, for sure!" Rikku cheered as she released herself from Shuyin's body.
"Yeah, and I am glad to see you again, Rikku, but where is Yuna?" Shuyin asked.
"I believe that Yunie is controlling the airship from the bridge area right now. See, the rest of the Gullwings decided to take a 3-day vacation to Besaid to do a little fishing, which makes the rest of us in charge of the Celsius. I don't mind, though, because that means that Yunie, Paine, and myself can do whatever we please while they are away, and you can join in our fun as well, Tidus!"
"Oh joy, this should be enjoyable." Paine sarcastically remarked as Rikku dragged the two of them down the hallway and up to the bridge. The bridge area was filled with intricate wiring, and thousands of computerized screens, flashing wildly.
"Hey, Yunie! Paine's back, and she has brought back a special visitor!" Rikku exclaimed as she ran up to the central controls of the airship, where a young woman sat, glaring at a large monitor. This woman had short, light brown hair, and it appeared as she looked at Rikku that she has two different colored eyes, one a deep ocean-blue color, and the other a forest green color. As the young woman stood up, it appeared that she was wearing a white tube top, laced in pink fabric, along with navy blue hot pants, and a feathery light blue skirt that swayed back and forth as she walked over to Paine.
"Well, where is this visitor, Paine? I do not seem him or her anywhere." The woman asked as she looked around Paine's body. Slowly, Shuyin revealed himself, and looked upon the young woman's face. Shock and disbelieve then began to quickly rush upon the young woman's eyes and mouth.
"Are you, Yuna?" Shuyin bashfully asked as his faced blushed up as red as a Valentine's Day heart. Yuna then nodded her head as tears of joys began to flood down her joyous completion.
"The fayth brought you back to life, right? Are you just an illusion, or are you really alive now?" Yuna asked as Shuyin wiped the tears off of her face.
"Well, I was brought back to life by the fayth, as you had requested, and I think that I am now a real person, and no longer a dream."
"Oh, Tidus!" Yuna cried out as she leaped upon Shuyin's leased body. Shuyin then reluctantly held Yuna with his arms, while at the same time, rage and angst flowed wildly in his veins.
"I am...feeling a sudden surge of energy raging throughout my body. I hate this woman, yet at the same time, I think that I...love her. But, how can this be? Tidus, are these your feelings acting upon me?" Shuyin thought to himself as Yuna began to nudge her face closer to Shuyin's lips. "Oh no! Is she trying to kiss me? If she does kiss me, then she shall become possessed, which makes my plans totally ruined! I have to do something quickly, but what?" Shuyin realized as Yuna's gentle, pink lips grew closer and closer to his. Right before Yuna was going to place her lips against Shuyin's, he shut his eyes, and pretended to faint by slowly letting go of Yuna's body and falling onto the floor.
"Tidus, are you alright? Tidus? Tidus!" Yuna roared as she violently shook Shuyin's body. Rikku then walked over to Yuna, and released her from Shuyin.
"He'll be alright, Yunie. I bet that he was just so tired from the long voyage back to Spira, and from all of the excitement, that his body just couldn't take it anymore. I'll take him to a spare bed up in the cabin area, and get him some water. It looks like you better get some rest yourself, Yunie, 'cause you look dead tired!" Rikku proclaimed as she lifted up Shuyin's body.
"Yeah, well, this week has been pretty hard for me, with Brother, Buddy, and Shinra being gone. Running an airship isn't easy, you know." Yuna sighed.
"I know, but you have been doing a really great job as our temporary navigator, Yunie." Rikku stated as she smiled at Yuna.
"Thanks, Rikku." Just then, Yuna's eyes began to slowly close and she then fell asleep upon the bridge's floor.
"Geez, what are we going to do with these two sleepyheads, eh Paine?" Rikku whispered as she nudged Paine's shoulder.
"Nothing. They should both know that they cannot always depend on other people in order to save them." Paine raged as she silently walked over to a large windowsill in front of the airship.
"Yeah, but I know that if I was in trouble, my friends would come and help me. Wouldn't you, Paine?" Rikku mumbled.
"Just keep your focus on watching over those two, and leave me alone." Paine demanded as Rikku walked over to the elevator, and placed Shuyin's body inside. Rikku then walked back, picked up Yuna's body, and carried her into the elevator as well. After both bodies were safely aboard the elevator, Rikku shut the elevator's door, and pushed the button that would take her up to the cabin area.
"Paine doesn't seem like herself today. She never usually acts so moody, and especially around me. I hope that she's okay..." Rikku thought to herself as she rode up in the elevator to the cabin area.
"Hm. I wonder if it is safe to open my eyes now. Faking fainting seemed to work out nicely, but I think that someone took me into another room. Ah, what the hell, I'm going to 'wake up' now." Shuyin then opened his eyes, and realized that he was lying upon a double bed in a strange, green room. Pictures of Yuna, Rikku, and Paine were scattered around the walls, and stuffed animals in the shapes of Moogles sat along the edge of the bed. "Boy, the Gullwings sure do have a weird taste in decorating their rooms." Shuyin thought to himself as he began to get himself out of the bed. Just then, he could hear the door handle beginning to open, so Shuyin quickly jumped back into bed, and kept his eyes halfway open. He then noticed that Rikku had opened the door, and she had brought a glass of water and a wet towel along with her. She then set the items on a table in the room, and pulled up a chair next to Shuyin.
"Hey, how you feeling, bud?" Rikku whispered as she gentle stroked Shuyin's hair.
"I think that I will okay. Just a little overwhelmed by everything that happened today, but I'll recover." Shuyin replied as he smiled at Rikku.
"Well, I glad that you are getting better. Poor Yunie passed out right after you did, and she is still sleeping as we speak!" Rikku replied as she got up off of the chair, grabbed the glass of water and towel from the table, and sat back down. She then pressed the edge of the glass against Shuyin's lips so he could drink some of the water inside, and once he was done, she used the remaining water to drench the towel up and wipe off his sweat-ridded face.
"Ya know, Rikku, I really appreciate you helping me out. You've been a lifesaver." Shuyin boasted as he gently placed his hand onto Rikku's right leg.
It's no problem, my old friend, and I am sure that you would do the same for me." Rikku grinned as she placed her had on top of Shuyin's. "I really hate to do this to you, Rikku, but it's my only choice. I have to save my lover from that horrible witch, and I need your help." A few seconds later, Shuyin began to tightly grip Rikku's hand. She then tried to release his hand from hers, but his grip was too powerful to be removed. With almost all of his might, Shuyin then threw Rikku onto the floor, and jumped on top of her. Shuyin then bite Rikku's neck, and green and yellow pyreflies then began to swarm out of his body, and into hers. The pyreflies then lifted her body high into the air, and slowly absorbed themselves into the mark that Shuyin left on her body. Once all of the pyreflies successfully entered Rikku's body, she slowly floated back down, and onto the bed. Rikku's braids were now all dismantled, and her long blond hair flowed wildly down her face.
"Lord Shuyin, what have to summoned me for?" Rikku asked as her foggy green eyes stared upon Shuyin's body.
"Well, now we must find Paine, and begin the final part of my plan, Operation: Fiend Transformation." Shuyin commanded as the two of them then exited the room, and took the elevator back down to the bridge area, while Yuna slept peacefully her room, unaware of the terror that was soon to be brought upon her soul...
