Kitteh: Because I am a lazy arse kitty, I took FOREVER to do this chapter. So, therefore, I am incredibly sorry ;-;! –begs for forgiveness-. Anyway, I own … -looks around room- A PENNY!! YAY!!! !!!! Oh, and Tidus xD. He's mine, all mine P. R&R!
"How can you 'ride' Sin?!" Tidus asked.
Auron shrugged and attacked a fiend that was just about to bite his leg. A high-pitched scream was heard coming from the dieing fiend.
"Yo! Tidus!" Wakka yelled as soon as he spotted the blonde teen.
Turning his head, Tidus saw the orange blitz player. Wakka ran up to join the other two, knocking out 2 fiends on the way.
"Concentrate!" Auron growled at the blonde after a fiend had bit deep into Tidus' arm.
"I'm trying! Geez, you remind me too much of my old man sometimes," Tidus said, mumbling the last part.
A few minutes later Anima, using Pain, destroyed the rest of the fiends and then disappeared. Seymour smirked and left.
"What a weird guy," Tidus muttered.
"There you are!" Lulu said, finally finding the guys with Kimahri and Yuna in tow.
"Hey Lu," Wakka grinned.
"Oh Tidus! Look at your arm!" Yuna exclaimed.
Tidus looked down to see his arm gushing with blood from the fiend bite. Yuna used 'cure' on him and his arm was as good as new.
"Uh … thanks," Tidus said shyly.
"Sir Auron?" Yuna questioned, looking at the silent man standing behind Tidus.
Auron grunted.
"You know Auron?" Tidus questioned.
Yuna nodded.
"He was one of my father's guardians,"
"Oh," Tidus said.
"How do you know Auron?" Lulu asked suspiciously.
"Long story, he's my dad's friend. Known him for years," Tidus explained.
Lulu looked doubtful but Auron seemed to agree with what the blonde had said.
"Hey … it's getting late, we better get some rest, ya?" Wakka said.
The others nodded in agreement and headed to the inn.
"I'll share a room wi …" Wakka started as they arrived at the inn.
"Don't even think about it," Lulu snarled.
If looks could kill, Wakka would have died 3 million times … painfully.
"See you in the morning," Tidus smiled to the rest of the group, entering one of the rooms. Yuna's eyes followed him as he entered the room.
"Good night everyone," Yuna said politely, following Lulu into another room.
Everyone left to go to their respectful rooms and all fell into dreamless sleep. Except Tidus …
Tidus' Dream
"Ha! Your never gonna master the Jecht shot, your too little and a cry baby," Jecht laughed.
7 year old Tidus said nothing but stared at the blitzball in his arms.
"Cat got your tongue?" Jecht sneered.
"SHUT UP!!!" Tidus yelled.
"Calm down kid," Jecht chuckled.
Tidus glared at his father as the scene faded.
Tidus watched as his mother sobbed over a photo of his father.
"Oh Jecht … you've been missing for weeks …" She whispered before sobbing again.
"Mum …" Tidus started but his mother ignored him.
"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT DAD!!!" Tidus yelled angrily to the sea later that night.
Tidus found himself in a swirl of black, hearing the taunting voice of his father, his mother's depression. He hugged his knees tightly and tried to block out the voices.
End of dream
"Tidus! Hey, Tidus!" Wakka yelled, shaking his friend awake.
"Wha…?" Tidus asked, snapping awake.
"You ok?" Wakka asked.
Tidus nodded and got out of bed.
"Morning," He said with a yawn.
"Morning," Wakka replied.
Lulu knocked on the door and announced that they would be leaving in an hour.
"We all ready?" Wakka asked.
"Think so," Yuna replied.
"Then, let's go," Wakka said.
The group left Luca, heading for the Mi'ihen Highroad. They walked for hours, meeting various people on the way. One of them being a summoner, Belgemine …
"Ah, summoner Yuna, daughter of the High Summoner Braska. Let's see just how good you are, I challenge you to a duel of the aeons!" Belgemine said.
"Um … ok then," Yuna said timidly, gripping her staff.
Valefor verses Valefor.
Yuna's Valefor arched her wings back, attacking the opposing aeon with 'Sonic Wings'. Belgemine's Valefor flew back several metres before getting her composure back. But, her efforts were futile; Yuna's Valefor had seized the chance and attacked her with an 'Energy Ray'. Belgemine retreated Valefor and smiled slightly.
"You live up to your reputation, congratulations,"
Belgemine walked over to Yuna and gave her an Echo Ring.
"Use it well," Belgemine said to her before walking off in the other direction.
"That was brilliant Yuna!" Wakka grinned.
"For once, I agree with the porcupine," Lulu said.
Yuna laughed as Wakka glared at Lulu yelling something about Lulu never being nice to him.
"This is normal I guess," Tidus said to Yuna.
Yuna nodded, giggling.
Lucky: I apologize for the extremely long wait... The trio was undergoing a time of horrid horriblness, we'll make it up to ya though, promise ;)
