Chapter six: Return of the Spirits


When Monday had come, it was different, well not really. Yulina was at school and Yuna and Tidus were at home... oh yeah, and the visitors, they were there to. So that was the extra thing that was there. It was morning and all of them went into the kitchen except Lulu and Wakka, they were dealing with their own baby. "Yunie, so what are going to do?" Rikku asked.

Yuna shrugged, "I don't know. What do you think. Anyone have any ideas?"

Again, Rikku was the one who was going to talk. "I know!" she said standing up in the air throwing one hand up in the air as if she was participating in school."

Paine smirked. "Yeah, you might have an idea but does it have to do with anything stupid?"

Rikku stuck her tongue out at Paine and said, "No! I was thinking if Yunie can sing for us! Like you know, Real Emotion, Athousand Words, you get the idea, right?"

Gippal laughed seeming to remember something in his head that was funny. "Yeah, worth a try. Keep up with the entertainment!" They all looked at Yuna and she was looking like she wanted to refuse.

"Please?" Tidus asked. "I'll be cruel and not sleep by your side tonight!"

Tidus was Yuna's weak spot. "No, nothing like that! Okay, I'll sing but not here. In the music room." She stood up and went to the room where they associated with music, the other followed her.

When they were all seated, Yuna got ready and changed into her songstress dressphere. She had always had it with her, she had just told Yulina that she didn't because she wasn't supposed to. Yuna changed into that dressphere and began her song when she got her microphone in her hand.

1000 Words

I know that you're hiding things,
using gentle words to shelter me.
Your words were like a dream,
But dreams could never fool me.
Not that easily.

I acted so distant then.
Didn't say goodbye before you left,
But I was listening.
You'll fight your battles far from me.
Far too easily.

"Save your tears, 'cause I'll come back,"
I could hear that you whispered as you walked through that door,
But still I swore to hide that pain when I turned back the pages.
Shouting might've been the answer.

What if I cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart?
But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart.

'Cause a thousand words called through the ages,
They'll fly to you, even though I can't see.
I know they're reaching you, suspended on silver wings!

Oh, a thousand words.
One thousand embraces...
Will cradle you, making all of your weary days seem far away.
They'll hold you forever.

Oh, a thousand words (A thousand words...)
Have never been spoken, (Oh, yeah.)
They'll fly to you,
They'll carry you home and back into my arms
, (Carry you home...!)
Suspended on silver wings! (On silver wings!)

And a thousand words, (Ooh...)
Called out through the ages, (Called through the ages.)
They'll cradle you, turning all of the loving into only days... (Only days.)
They'll hold you forever.

Oh, a thousand words...

When Yuna was finished, she collapsed, just like she did in the concert in the Thunder Plains on the airship. Tidus had never heard her sing like that but there was something, like he had heard another voice while she was singing. Echoes, he would say. He never knew that she could do that. Yuna was crying, the song had reminded her the pain when he was lost, away from her, she would never forget it but then on another side, it felt soothing to her. Tidus made his way to her side and took her in her arms. "That was beautiful..." he said in a hushing whisper.

Yuna relaxed in his hold and felt better, she was mostly singing that song for him but no one knew that. "Thank-you, Tidus," she managed to say.

"Anyways, did you hear that echo after Yunie?" Rikku piped in. "If you listened, that kinda sounded like Lenne."

Yuna smiled, "She was here, I felt it, as if she was by my side, just like when we were singing together in that concert during my journey on finding Tidus." They all fell silent and Yuna clung onto Tidus, she felt a strange feeling lurking around in her stomach. "Was she really here?" Yuna thought.

As if to read her mind, Yuna heard that familiar voice as well as the others that knew the songstress in the room, "I was there, in fact, I am here now and with Shuyin."

Yuna turned and so did the others. "Lenne!" Yuna stood up and gave her a friendly hug. She didn't expect them to be here. Maybe her singing called upon Lenne and by her wearing the dressphere. Lenne felt pretty real and Shuyin looked pretty real, too. "Are you guys real?"

Lenne looked at her hands and saw that they were solid. She smiled and looked up, "We're real."

Rikku giggled and had a reason. She had noticed that Lenne's curve-hugging top was closed wrong, Rikku was suspecting something. "Lenne?"

"Yes?"

"Have you been doing anything with Shuyin before you got here?" Rikku giggled again as Lenne looked down at her top. Shuyin smile looking like he had fallen into the Farplane.

Lenne blushed and looked at the ground, "No, nothing at all." Yuna smiled, she knew that they had been something, she knew. One reason was because she had been being naughty with someone else... she culdn't wait for tonight.

"Well, looks like your going to be stuck with us tonight!" Tidus said. He already knew Lenne and Shuyin, Yuna had told him all about them before they had Yulina.

"We're going to be staying with you guys?" Shuyin asked Lenne.

She grabbed his hand and tucked in under her arm. "You bet! Now we can have fun with Yuna and the others! Yay!"

"That's the way to be Lennie!" Rikku screamed.

Paine rolled her eyes while she sat beside Baralai who was laughing, "Give me a break."
