This chapter didn't take THAT long to write. I like this story better then my other ones, but I'll keep updating both, just to see where they take me

Salvage Ship

It is getting more boring each day. Keyakku brought up a dummy, so we could strike it with our weapons, and I did so happily, but once the dummy is cut up, well, you know…We stopped at a few places, buying new weapons and now I have a Devastator. Keyakku stocked up on the healing stuff and Brother made sure the engine of the ship was working properly. He doesn't talk to us much anymore so I just bond with Keyakku.

I keep forgetting to take off my wet suit, so it sticks to my skin and is so hard to get off. My clothes underneath get wet too. I have an orange tank top and some green shorts with a pouch, obviously. My hair is kept dry under the wet suit, but still.

Keyakku talks in Spiran all the time now, but I know he is going to stop one day. When we see Home again, he will not speak it in fear of my father. I speak it though and when we come across the locals, I always have to talk to them because I am the sweetest; I am the one who doesn't seem as threatening. The other two stay back. I am always relied on to do these jobs and I always get the food we need for another month.

As we near the next island, Brother says he spotted some treasure, buried deep within Mt. Gagazet. Tunneling was not my strength. In fact, I hated tunneling. Keyakku said he would do most of it though, and all I had to do was sit back and watch. The treasure seems to be a good one, and Brother is hoping it is machina, because he is short on machina weapons.

I always look forward to a new treasure, because it means we can see what it does. We think the Golden Sphere helps your memory and we decided to keep it with us, because it may come in handy. I am going to use it when trying to remember the day's events, even though Brother tells me not to. Keyakku says we must use it only for emergencies, but I'll use it for the diary anyway. Heh, I am a little trickster sometimes.

Salvage Ship

Brother says we have set our sights on Mt. Gagazet. We may find something there, something exciting. Now I can't wait to go to Mt. Gagazet. Keyakku is preparing some digging tools and I ma preparing my Devastator. I have to sharpen it first. The dummies have cut it down.

I think I am getting real good at fighting now. It seems to be getting easier and easier. Brother finally showed me how to work the map in the Controls and it isn't that complicated actually. We have found five treasures so far. I haven't documented them all, but. I will document this Gagazet one because it seems important. I hope it is machina too, because the fiends we come across seem to be getting tougher. Keyakku told me to be aware of the things around us when we go diving. On Mt. Gagazet he said there were lots of evil little buggers. He said people had been killed up there one too many times.

"But, then why are we going?" I asked.

"We risk our lives for the sake of the Al Bhed," Keyakku explained.

I have always admired the way Keyakku instructs me to do things, but it is a little difficult to understand what he means by this. We risk our lives for other people. If we die, then we immediately fail. It seems a bit stupid to me

Spira Shores

Brother convinced us to stay overnight at an inn. He said we all looked run down and tired and needed a big long rest and some food to keep us alive. I am always given a separate cabin. We are all friends and I have no idea why I have to sleep separately.

Brother stays up all night, driving the ship. His eyes look red and sore. He is the one who needs the rest.

We were getting close to Mt. Gagazet, but he had to stop us. He said we were going to collapse if we didn't rest. I don't really agree with him…but oh well. So, we rest overnight and I am writing at a desk, alone as usual. It is making me mad to do this, but I have to deal with it. We go to Gagazet in a few days…or weeks…or months. I have no idea. I will write more next time

Salvage Ship

I can see Gagazet in the distance. Its snowy peaks and rocky cliffs are unmistakably there. It seems to always be snowing there and I can't wait to venture on it. I can also sharpen my thieving skills. It'll be fun. I hope. I hope we can beat the fiends that roam it and find that treasure. Brother hardly talks anymore and Keyakku is constantly looking out the window. He never takes his mask off anymore. It is weird. Everyone seems to be worried and it looks like they are losing hope, but I always try to cheer them up. I never like to see them down and failing in optimistic views. The worst thing is for them to turn pessimistic. I don't have much to say tonight. So, I will make this brief
