Chapter One

Tidus Narrating
It's getting late, the sun's about to set, I hear her voice calling my name. I stumble across the path, I don't know which way to go, now I hear two voices calling my soul. My mind is flooded, with too much trouble, my heart can't be divided, its just not possible.
I sink into this infinite dark pit, I want to get out, please show me the way, don't disappear now, I'm falling eternally, when I reach the bottom, I see a light.
I have wings, where do they come from? I'm not falling anymore. I'm soaring through the sky, I see Valefor by my side, going with me all the way, the clouds caressing our faces, letting us feel a warmth of love, darkness has gone, yet I'm in the night soaring through the sky, this is amazing, this is beautiful, it reminds me of her…
My vision is clouded once again, I see somebody, I see her, but the resemblance is too strong, now I see her, who are you, which?
Flying is tougher than I thought, I might be able to fly away from my problems, but eventually I have to come down, I must come back to the ground, where darkness still floods my brain, where I can't think straight.
I'm still in the air, Valefor by my side, suddenly I see Ixion, coming toward me, but he attacks me, why is this? The thunder (lighting) travels through my soul, I woke up? No I'm still home.
Everything is clear now, the reason I was flying, why I entered that trance. I was playing blitzball, that's what it was. They are some things that takes us away, we go to our world, where everything makes sense. We are able to fly very far away, but we have to come down, that's what I regret.
I continue practicing blitzball, it helps, it takes my problems and vanishes them away, the only problem is that they always come back, they are not solved and they just come back, every problem has a solution, the other problem is finding it. As I practice blitzball, I feel free, I feel I'm ok, a little peace.
Their voices, their smiles, their eyes and ways, makes me smile, I don't feel any regrets. That's what I try to convince myself of, but it tends to be very useless, as I always end up troubled.
At least, right now I'm in a moment of peace, as I kick the blitzball and made it go in. No more troubles, no more pain, no more choices to make. Just me and my wings as we go traveling over the sea.
"Tidus?……Tidus?"
I hear her voice again, everything is darkening inside, I suddenly forgot I was playing to take my mind out of my past.
"Tidus?…TIDUS?!"
Her voice is now worried, what is going on, my world, the ocean, my wings, my troubles are rising again.
"TIDUS!!!"
Gasp!! "What's wrong? What happened?"
Sigh relieved "I thought you died, I've been calling you for a long time and you didn't answer."
Everything came back. I heard my name, I was flying, free from my problems, maybe I did die, who knows, but everything is now the same way.
I was in slumber, in peace, light was consuming me and at the sight of reality darkness came raging back.
