A/N: Heh.. I didn't think people read stories after they went second page! Thanks for all the nice reviews! And to clear things up... *Gets out infamous clipboard, brings up reviews*

Sakura: There is a reason she talks like that. It's a characteristic side effect brought on when you babble on about your characters while doing nothing. That, and it serves a purpose later on.

Saranomy: Well, I don't know if I was going for confusing, I just didn't want any of you to know what was going on. ^_^ So I guess that worked out well.

cool-kitsune: Auri-pie knows I'm fricking terrified of his sword, so, that's a good way to get me to update.

Okay! No more questions? Well the, lets get this show on the road!

A.U.R.O.N

Back at the hotel, Auron had the small girl on his bed, sitting in a chair just off to the side. By now, it was already 5AM, so, everyone was up and ready to go.

"So, Auron..." Lulu leaned down to him, her braids cascading over her shoulders. "Who is it?"

Auron looked up from the girl. "We'll know when Yuna heals her." He stood up turning to Yuna. "We've waited long enough."

"Yes." She nodded, rod in hand. "I'll try." She brought her staff up parallel with her body, and spread her arms in an outburst of magic. Curaga was cast.

"Did it work?" Wakka and Tidus leaned forward, both asking the same question. The small girl twitched, and started to open her eyes. Her eyes were bright blue, and her hair was short and feathered, a light aqua color to it. She glanced sleepily at the summoner and her guardians.

"Where am I?" She pulled the covers off of her, and swung her feet over the side of the bed. "Who are you?"

Rikku was the first to speak. "I'm Rikku!"

"R... Rikku." She little girl's face lit up. "R.I.K.K.U." Rikku's expression matched the child's innocent one, and she pointed around the room, introducing everyone.

"Wakka." She pointed to Wakka, and then to his blitzball. "That's a blitzball."

"B.L.I.T.Z.B.A.L.L. W.A.K.K.A. It has two K's, just like yours Rikku!" The girl giggled.

"Yep! And this is Tidus, Yuna," Rikku leaned down to the child. "You can call her Yunie," continuing, she said, "Lulu, Kimarhi.."

"T.I.D.U.S., Y.U.N.A., L.U.L.U, K.I.M.A.R.H.I..." The girl repeated in letters.

"And Auron." She pointed to the man in the red coat.

"Auron. A.U.R.O.N." The girl hopped off the bed, and walked shakily to the Legendary Guardian. "Thank you." Auron placed his hand on her shoulder.

"You're welcome." Auron hoisted the girl back up on the bed, and started to question her. "Okay," He started, "Let's begin with your name."

"Mine?" Her face was blank. "I don't have one."

Rikku walked up to the little girl, her voice heartrendingly soft. "Why not?"

"Because I don't."

"Well, we can at least take you to your parents. Where do they live?"

"What are parents?" The child's face was again blank.

This time, Yuna stepped up to explain the simplest little things. "The people who took care of you when you were little?" She laid a hand on her shoulder. "Do you remember people like that?"

"Are there two?" She looked at Yuna naively.

"Yes. Of Course." Yuna nodded vigorously, thinking she had finally figured it out.

"There were two people..." She started. Everyone leaned in, waiting to hear her answer, except Auron. "They were at an altar, praying to it, and I was on it." She started to hop on the bed. "Are they my parents?!" Everybody sighed.

Tidus lifted the girl off the bed, and onto his shoulders. "No, sound like you got lost in a temple." He turned to the rest of the party. "We can keep her, right?" He gave a puppy dog-esque expression, and catching on quickly, she copied it.

"All right, all right!!" Wakka sighed. "Eh, that's just sad. They match, and they're sickeningly cute, ya?"

"Looks like you get to stay!" Rikku squealed. "Well, we should give you a name so we have somethin' to call you!" She grinned sincerely at the girl. "What do you think?"

The girl contemplated seriously over her decision. Beaming, she shrieked, "I like Emma!"

Rikku matched her tone. "Me too!" She hugged Emma while she was still sitting with Tidus. "Ooh, This is gonna be fun!"
