TIDUS POV
Chapter Four: Forgotten Secret
"Tidus where are we going?" Yuna said to me, the girl was so sweet, how could anyone have thought she had killed? Them convicting Yuna of killing the person that was closest to me, just pissed me off. "Tidus were are you taking me?" I heard fear in her voice, but the look on her face was the calmest I had ever seen, I held on to her hand tightly but hers was limp as she easily kept up with my pace.
"We have to hurry, guards roam these corridors SHIT!" I came to a halt as I saw a guard sitting down quite far ahead twiddling with his thumbs, it was lucky he hand't seen or heard us yet... I had to get to a safer place, I looked around, there was no-where we could exit the building from. The exit was right near the guard who was obviously not paying any attention to his surroundings, which was lucky for Yuna and I. I sighed... we would just have to wait till the guard moved. I scanned the room and pulled Yuna into a narrow corridor where only the worst of criminals where kept. It wad a good thing you couldn't see through the doors, otherwise the men would all start snarling, and that would alert the other guards. "We have to stay here, I heard that guard falls asleep, heh, we got some good mean on the team don't we?" I said to her puffing for breath. She didn't seem to appreciate my attempt to soften the mood and snatched her hand away and immediately, searching for something.
"No! we have to get out of here now!" Yuna said looking around, she seemed almost desperate to find something we both knew wasn't there. I wondered why she was so stressed, hey? she was with me... best sword fighter in Bevelle now that.... well I would get her out of here, I promised myself that, and no matter what I would avenge Mark, I would find the one who did this to him...
"Yuna chill I'll get you out of here." I said gesturing her to sit down. She rolled her eyes at me and continued to search the walls. "Yuna just relax a bit, are you always so tense?" I looked up at her, she finally let her arms drop from the search and turned around and glared.
"Are you always so annoying?" She spat. So what? I had annoyed her, but I had succeed in a way as she sat down close enough to me. Okay maybe it was like at the other end of the room, but it was a start.
"Yuna, so tell me? Why do you hate Yevon so much?" I asked suddenly feeling bold, I saw a look of grief wash over her beautiful delicate face, she pulled her knees up to her chest and rested her head on them. "You don't have to answer that." I was prying and she would get angry at me if I prodded her for more information, I didn't know why, but I felt I could really talk to her, so I just had to ask, but maybe... she didn't feel the same way. I knew she had been hurt in her life, she seemed shut off to a lot of emotions that she should be showing, and maybe I could help her in that aspect.
"Tidus, just don't get to close to me okay?" She looked over at me with a serious look on her face and started to run her fingers along the wall.
"Why not?" I asked.
"YES!" she shrieked. "Looks like Tidus doesn't know the dungeons like the back of his hand!" Yuna joked poking her tongue out at me, I watched her push out a few bricks and the hole she made was big enough for both of us to fit through. Then I remembered.
"This is so awesome, look this has taken us how many months and we finally got the last stone!" Mark said chiseling away for the last few strokes and placing the stone back.
"Mark if my dad ever finds out!" I said looking around as he stood up, slapping the dust off his hands.
"Look you're so paranoid loosen up, remember why we did this?" Mark asked me.
"Of course but it's a bit stupid, were ten years old and already worried about busting out of jail." I rolled my eyes. "But have we forgotten it could also bust out a whole lot of other dangerous criminals and let them roam freely."
"Oh no-one will ever find it I promise!" Mark told me. "Besides it can be a little forgotten secret that dwells within the dungeons for centuries to come after we die, isn't that cool?"
"Well Mark, you broke your promise, but you were right this has come in handy, the forgotten secret, who could I be so forgetfully STUPID!" I whispered to myself slapping my forhead. I stood up and stood over Yuna who was moving the bricks out of the way.
"What? You knew about this?" She looked up at me with angry eyes.
"Yeah but I did it like 10 years ago, I totally forgot, here let me do it." I reached out and touched her hand, I heard her gasp under my touch but the moment quickly ended when she pulled her hand away and continued to lift.
"I can look after myself." She repeated again. Was Yuna independent or what? It only made me want to discover more about her past, had she grieved so much over her lost father? I didn't blame her he was a good man. But what of her mother? I wondered if she had lived alone all this time. "You coming?" Her sweet voice knocked me out of my trance and I smiled, climbing through the hole after her trying to ignore the fact that the most perfect arse in the whole world was right in front of my face.
"Tidus are you staring at my arse?" Yuna asked as I felt the dirt beneath my fingers, I looked up... we were outside, near the nice blossoming jail garden, what a happy thought.
"No of course not Yuna." I lied sarcastically dusting myself off and lending my hand to help Yuna up, who of course rejected and helped herself up. I smiled when she slapped her arse and placed it in front of my face.
"Look all you want baby but you'll never touch!" She teased shaking it a few times then returned to her usual stoic nature, I liked to see her loosen up, maybe she had because we were finally free now.
"Eh Yuna...?" I said scratching the back of my head. She turned around rolling her eyes again, so she hated it when I asked questions, I had to store this information away, but this question was important. "Where going to be discovered sooner or later, and if we do... who knows what will happen to us, basically there are going to be Yevonite soldiers everywhere, can we go anywhere where it's safe?" I saw the look of appreciation on her face for thinking about that. She pondered for a few seconds and gasped jumping at me and pushing me to the ground. I lay there with her in my arms as I heard the sound of footsteps.
"Tidus has let Yuna free! They've got to be around here somewhere, Tidus poor bloke once his dad has heard about this he will be sure to put both of them to death, that is unless Tidus owns up." Someone said.
"Yeah I know what you mean but boy that Yuna, I would have ran away with her any day if she asked me to, but looks like poor Tidus is being taken advantage of poor mate."
I shut my eyes, there was more conversation but it faded into the distance, I heard Yuna's breathing become heavier over me, never did it occur to any of us to pull away, instead she rested her head on my chest and sighed with relief. "That was close." She said slowly trying to pull herself up, I quickly raised my arm, and grabbed her wrist gently, pulling her back down. She glanced around nervously but I pulled her closer forcing her to stare into my eyes, which she had alot of difficulty doing. My mother had always told me before she passed away, a person's eyes are the doorway to their soul, maybe Yuna's were and she didn't want me to look in, but she intrigued me, she mistified me, she enchanted me, and, I was going to learn more about her.
"Yuna did you hear that?" I asked her, I knew no matter what she said I would believe her was I that pathetic?
"Yes I did, and you're not going to die!" Yuna slapped my arm when I tried to hold on to her again, she struggled so I finally let her go. "We won't die, not till I have fulfilled my purpose." Yuna stared blankly out over the garden, I didn't exactly know what she meant by 'purpose in life' but I decided it was best not to ask her. "Tidus, I know the place we have to go, Besaid village, it's far from here and it may be a hard journey but it is a very private Island no guards are there no-one of any importance even visits there." Yuna turned to me and gave me a scolding look. "Would you get up already?" She almost shrieked.
I laughed getting up slowly and stood next to her, Besaid... it sounded nice enough, but from the way things were going, it sounded like we would have to live there for the rest of our lives, but if I was with Yuna I guess it wouldn't be so bad "We need to find somewhere to stay tonight..." Once again she went into her thoughtful position.
"Yuna... I'm sorry for the injustice Bevelle's crime system has preformed on you and in return I give you my blade I shall protect you I promise." I felt a little stupid acting like a big fool in front of her, but she didn't seem to mind.
"Okay, thank you Tidus." She said, merely a whisper, suddenly she seemed upset, really upset, I shrugged it off her emotions were like a swirling ocean one minute she was as calm as a hot summer breeze floating past you, her surface showing no rippling, no emotions, then the next minute her winds were like devastating hurricanes, her waves crashing onto the beach crushing anything they touched, never had I seen her happy... not yet, I had spent the whole night with her, I felt like I knew her, and still I had not seen her happy..
"Yuna is apathy and sadness the only feelings you know?" I asked her wondering; she wiped her tears away and shook her head.
"I have one more... revenge, anger, and Tidus you must understand I will get my revenge and nothing will get in my way." She clenched her fists. "And right now I miss my baby, SO DON'T MESS WITH ME!" She said walking out of the garden, as if she knew it was safe, wouldn't surprise me if she had x-ray vision or something. "Follow me." She said walking up the winding path that would soon lead out to Bevelle city, I wondered what time it was, it seemed like me and Yuna had been up all night and I was starting to feel the effects, but Yuna, she looked perfect as usual.
"Yuna, you have a child?" I asked catching up to her, she didn't really seem like the type. "And what's this about revenge, and why would I get in the way and what the? You're confusing me" I said, she laughed and stopped.
"1, I'll only tell you this because you helped me escape, 2, no more questions after this, got it?" Yuna raised her eyebrow at me. I nodded.
"The revenge thing, it's what I live for, I need to do something and no, you are not going to know any thing about it, my baby, is not a child it's my gun, it's best friend and I have lost it! Now I have to go to fucking Gippal for a new one just great!" She yelled starting to walk again.
"Uh- you with Gippal or something...?" I asked hoping he wasn't someone important in her life, I knew who he was the leader of the machine faction and he wasn't exactly someone I wanted her to mix with.
"You could say that, but I hate the mother fucking jerk!" She said. "Anyway, tonight we stay in Macalania Woods, if we can get there without being seen by the warriors." She swiftly jumped over the fence that was blocking our way, and awaited me to follow. Once I had jumped over the gate with ease I stated my bafflement.
"Macalania?"
