Chapter 3

Horrifying Visions and new fears

Yuna walked onto the boat with the others. It was going dark now, and Yuna was feeling a little gloomy. There was no sign of Zak, but she had no intention of looking for him, because she knew that Daisuke would suspect something if she did. Instead she slipped away from her group of friends and went quietly to the front of the boat where Tidus had once practiced the Jecht Shot. She smiled to herself as she remembered him talking angrily of his father and the "sublimely magnificent Jecht Shot mark 3". Yuna wished she had asked Tidus to come with her to the front of the boat, and that she might have upset them all by wandering off, but she felt overwhelmed and suddenly, very, very tired.

She felt someone tap her on the shoulder and looked round. Tidus was there, grinning. He walked next to her and rested his arms on the edge of the boat, watching the water.

Yuna yawned and her vision suddenly went blurry. She grabbed Tidus's shoulder as the sea swayed infront of her. Tidus grabbed her before she could fling herself into the water. Yuna had no idea why she had suddenly wanted to jump in, and didn't know why she was thrashing in his arms fiercely and trying to harm him. It frightened her, just like the time her body danced on its own. Yuna screamed as she felt a searing pain shoot across her head and she saw horrible pictures in her mind. She had no idea where she was any more, she couldn't see Tidus but she could feel herself thrashing, and all she could see was horrible, horrible things.

First there was Daisuke, he was yelling at Zak with the dragon like gun pointing at his face.

"You realise what else this can do! This force I can control" Daisuke shouted. "It's not only in this gun, see laddie? Its in my body, my hands, my mind, I can do anything I like with it! And since you were so kind as to spread it around to that stupid High Summoner, I shall show you a demonstration."

Yuna gasped as she saw a vision appear in the room where Daisuke and Zak were. It was herself, thrashing on the floor, but her eyes stared up in horror and her whole body went rigid. Yuna knew it was what she was doing right now, lying still and staring forwards, her eyes wide.

Daisuke laughed and the vision faded from the room Yuna was watching.

"She's watching, now, Zak. I hope you're pleased with yourself, because the Summoner is my new play thing. I'm going to have mighty fun with your sister when I get my hands on her too."

Before Yuna heard Zak's reply, the scene switched to a small bedroom, where a young girl of around seven was screaming and staring wide eyed at something Yuna could not see. Then it switched again, to baby Vidina, who screamed and mutated before Yuna's eyes into a huge Dark Flan. Then, it switched again, and the scene Yuna saw horrified her. The scream that came from her mouth and the tears that followed were so strong Yuna could have drowned in her own sorrow and pain. Tidus was lying down on the floor of the boat, pale and lifeless, the colour drained from his lips and cheeks. He was still, and he wasn't breathing. On his back was a large circular marking shaped like a dragon, and blood was pouring from it and onto the floor. The pain Yuna felt was beyond belief, as though her heart was snapping in two over and over again.

And suddenly Yuna was back on the boat, screaming at the top of her lungs and crying, the pain in her chest burning. Yuna thrashed around in horror as people tried to attack her, well thats what she thought they were doing. She couldn't see their faces and had no idea who they were, all she knew was that she wanted to escape. She wanted to find out who had done this to Tidus. She jumped up and ran as fast as she could to her cabin and slammed the door. She was breathing extremely fast and little beads of sweat were trickling down her forhead. Tears stained her face and she began to sob uncontrollably. Her eyes would still not see properly, she had struggled to find the bed and sit down. After a moment her vision went back to normal. The image of Tidus lying there crept slowly into her mind and she threw her face into the pillow and cried harder than she had done in her life.

She heard the door be thrown open and sat bolt upright. Her heart almost burst as Tidus, Rikku and Paine came charging in. Yuna threw herself on Tidus and cried hard. He wasn't taken aback at all, and wrapped his arms around her in comfort, and somehow the throbbing pain in her head seemed to ease...she became calmer...

"What happened, Yuna" Tidus said gently after a few minutes.

Yuna clutched at his shirt hard and gulped. "I...you...I saw...It was..."

"It's okay, Yunie." Rikku said quietly. "Sit down and take your time."

Tidus guided Yuna over to the bed and sat her down, he held her hand tightly and squeezed it in comfort as she began to tell them everything. When she had finished, her guard failed her and she began to cry again as she saw the image of Tidus lying there in her head.

Tidus stroked Yuna's hair and looked at Paine and Rikku. "You mind giving us a minute"

Both girls shook their heads and immediatly left, closing the door behind them.

Tidus let Yuna cry onto him for a while, stroking her hair and whispering to her that it was okay. After a moment Yuna calmed down and looked up at him with her blue and green eyes.

Tidus couldn't help but lean in and give her a kiss, it was the only thing he could think of to calm her. He kissed her softly for a while, enjoying the moment they had together.

When they broke apart Tidus stroked her cheek fondly. "I'm here now, Yuna. I won't let that man do this to you."

Yuna leaned her head on his chest and couldn't find words. She had been crying the last time they had a moment like this, back in Macalania. And she was almost crying the day he returned.

"I'm sorry, Tidus." She whispered.

Tidus turned her head up gently so he could see her. "What for"

"Every time we get to spend time alone...I'm always crying. I have changed now, I'm not the same as two years ago, but crying makes me feel as though I haven't changed at all."

"Never be ashamed of showing you're feelings, Yuna." Tidus said wisely. "And I know you aren't the same... You're even more beautiful."

Yuna smiled and kissed him again, entwining her fingers with his as she did so, just as she had done in Macalania. They broke apart and Yuna smiled, playing with his hand for a moment.

"We should go tell the other I'm alright." Yuna said after a moment of tracing the lines on the palm of his hand.

Tidus nodded and took Yuna's hand as they left the Cabin.

Rikku and Paine were standing outside looking worried. When Yuna emerged with Tidus Rikku rushed over to her and gave her cousin a bone breaking hug.

"Are you alirght, Yunie" Rikku asked quickly, her emerald eyes shining with worry.

"I'm fine." Yuna said, nodding. "I was just...frightened."

Rikku hugged her cousin again tightly. "Don't you worry, Yunie. We'll get to the bottom of this"

Yuna smiled, happy she had such good friends, the best she could ask for. She realized Rikku was much more than a cousin to her, she was one of her best friends and almost like a sister, and so was Paine. In the time Yuna had been a Gullwing they had all grown closer and Yuna knew they all cared about each other dearly. Tidus was like a big brother to her, he was her best friend in the world and more importantly, the person she loved most in Spira. She couldn't help but glow with happiness all of a sudden.

"You don't know how much you all mean to me." Yuna said.

Rikku looked at her in horror. "Why are you talking like that, Yunie"

Paine smirked and Tidus chuckled at Rikku's need to over react.

"I'm just letting you know." Yuna said, cupping her hands behind her back and swaying from side to side as she usually did.

Rikku grinned and bounced on her toes. "I can't wait to get to Luca! We can see"

Rikku suddenly broke off, looking horrified at what she was saying.

"See what" Paine said, her eyebrow raised.

"See...uh...um..." Rikku's eyes were darting round as she searched for a solution and her mind seemed to be in overdrive mode. "Blitzball"

Rikku smiled at them and giggled nervously, and Yuna was sure that wasn't what she was going to say.

"Sweet" Tidus grinned, pulling his fist down and missing Rikku's excuse.

Yuna couldn't help but smile as Tidus's love for Blitzball had never really left him. Then she found herself yawning, and her eyes sleepy.

"I'm really tired..." She said as she yawned again.

"Me too" Rikku said, as she too, yawned and then stretched. "Maybe we should go to bed before we collapse"

Paine and Rikku bid Yuna and Tidus goodnight, leaving them alone together under the stars. Yuna shifted her boots nervously and looked up at the sky. She spotted a single star shoot across by the moon and pointed up in excitement.

"Hey, wow! Did you see that" Yuna said, her hand over her mouth in amazement.

Tidus grinned. "Make a wish."

Yuna didn't have to, he was all she could wish for. But she did make a wish, she wished he would never dissapear again. Yuna smiled at him cheekily as she realized the joke of his words. He leaned forwards and kissed her softly and then grinned.

Yuna grinned back. "You're all I could wish for anyway."

Tidus smiled at her and stroked her cheek. "So are you to me, Yuna. Goodnight."

He kissed her once more and left for his Cabin, waving. As Yuna waved back, she was missing his prescence already as the image of his lifeless body crept up into her mind.
