Okay, I'm saying okay to much anyway, here.

Chapter eleven: A Portal... Again
Atrena and Linnea suddenly stood up. "Hey where are the two of you going?" Jecht asked shifting in his position of his chair.
Atrena dusted her skirt as if there was a big amount of dust on it though there was none. "We're going to go to the kitchen. You guys talk or do something else, okay?"
Jecht sank in his chair more and then crossed his arms. "Great, talking," he muttered. "What can be better than just talking!"
"Jecht, would you just shut-up!" Atrena said getting frustrated.
Auron looked at the old blizter and then Jecht just sighed and watched Atrena and Linnea disappear into the hallway. "You like annoying everyone, Jecht?" Auron asked as if Jecht was still a kid. He just looked at him and rolled his eyes.
Linnea and Atrena peeked over the doorframe and then got their whole bodies into the kitchen when they saw Yuna and Tidus chating away and cooking at the same time. "Yuna?" Linnea said.
Yuna was so startled that she dropped the plate and then it fell to the floor. "Damn," she whispered then went to bend down and pick up the broken pieces as well as Tidus.
"Here, I'll do the rest for you, I don't want your hands hurting later," Tidus requested. He cocked his head in her direction and she nodded standing up.
Yuna saw her mother right away, she was startled again. "Mom!"
Linnea clasp her hands together after seeing what had happened. "I'm sorry. I made you drop the plate and now it's broken."
Shaking her head sending her brown hair in different directions, Yuna said, "No, it's okay. Anyway, we already are picking up the glass."
"Hey." Yuna and the two mothers looked down where he was almost finishing picking up the broken glass. "What do you mean we? I'm the one who's doing all the work." He stood up after putting the pieces in the garbage bin under the sink.
"Well then, thank-you, Tidus," Yuna said and smiled.
"Well thank-you for your smile." Tidus stood up straight and then looked at the mothers. "So, what brings you two here?"
"Well we wanted to say hi," Atrena said to her son. Tidus lifted a brow thinking that there was more. Then Atrena said, "I haven't seen you for so long! Look at you, you're so handsome!"
Tidus put a hand behind his head and then laughed a phony laugh. "Ha, ha, thanks...?" he said it like a question though it really was. Yuna ended up laughing. They all looked at her.
"Ha! You should see the girls in Spira! All his fans are like all over him! I bet they have crushes on you!" Yuna laughed out. Atrena and Linnea seemed to have the point.
Tidus smiled. "Well they can't have me 'cause I'm married and I have one kid so ya." Yuna smiled back at him and jumped into his arms.
Atrena and Linnea got lost in sight of them. Then Linnea nudged Atrena on her side. "Ow! What was that for?" Atrena said. Linnea cleared her throat as if Atrena was forgetting something, then she actually remembered. "Tidus?"
Yuna took her head away from the crook of Tidus neck and then they looked at her. "Yeah?" Tidus asked seeming to be lost in thought.
"I was thinking that the both of us mothers would like to do the cooking."
Linnea cut in, "We thought that you two could use some alone time since you are like this."
Yuna smiled - she wanted the time but then her mom was too nice. "No, it's okay."
"We're insisting," Atrena said. She knew that they wouldn't back the offer down. Tidus had a cheesy grin on his face. Atrena knew that her son was up to something.
"Okay, then." Tidus picked Yuna up princess style and then headed up stairs. "Thanks, you guys!" he called behind him as he made his way.
"No porblem," Atrena said picking up the knife. When they were gone, Atrena said, "Now how do you use this thing again? The Farplane had done some serious things to me."
When everyone was already alseep and even when Yuna and Tidus finished the lovemaking they were too. The night was quiet and peaceful. In Tidus and Yuna's master bedroom, it had a blue hue to it and the rain poured gently against the roof. The water on the window reflected soft transparent patters on the couple in the bed. Yuna's cheek was against Tidus' bare chest with her head placed comfortabally in the crook of his neck. Tidus had his arms around her slender frame and that made them close. Their breathing was peaceful as if they were in a heaven of dreams... knock, knock. By now, everyone in the house knew the rule that Yuna and Tidus had made. The door was left unlocked but they would have to knock. No excuses, that was what they had to do.
They didn't answer because they were asleep, the woman walked into the room and avoided the clothes on the ground. She walked over quietly to the side of the bed and looked down at the couple. "Yuna?" she whispered, "Yuna..."
Yuna's eyes shifted under her eyelids and then she opened them slowly, not getting out of Tidus' hold. She looked in the direction of the woman and then almost gasped. "Mom... what are you doing here?" Yuna lifter her head and sat up. She forgot that she and Tidus weren't wearing anything. She grabbed the sheets and pulled it up higher on her chest. "Mom." Yuna was blushing though her mother couldn't see it though out the blue.
Linnea shifted her eyes off ofTidus and then Yuna. "I need the both of you to go downstairs. Your friends Lenne and Shuyin found something out and I think that it's important."
"Mom but it's the middle of the night-"
"Hey."
Yuna and Linnea almost screamed. They turned their heads and saw Atrena. "Atrena, don't do that!" Linnea whispered under her breath trying to catch what was left of her.
"Sorry."
"So are you here for the same reason?" Yuna asked.
"Yeah," Atrena said.
"Okay, I'll wake up Tidus."
When the two mothers got out of the room waiting for them on the other side of the door, the couple was getting dressed. Tidus pulled a black shirt over his head and then wore black cargo shorts that went a bit past his knees. Yuna worked on wearing her short-shorts from Spira and a thin red low-cut v-neck collar shirt, it showed all her curves. Of course she was wearing a bra, it was seen translucently though. "You ready?" Tidus said.
"Yeah." The Two of them walked to the door and then opened it. When the mothers saw Yuna Linnea was looking at Yuna wildly.
"Dear, do you always wear things like that?" She was eyeing her anxiously.
"Yes, mom- well at home sometimes," Yuna added before her mother would break into protests. "Okay, let's go down." She grabbed Tidus' hand and then dragged him down the stairs. Linnea and Atrena followed behind. When they got to the bottom, they saw that everyone else was there. Yulina, Lulu, Wakka, Gippal, Rikku, Baralai, Paine, Lenne, Shuyin, Auron, Braksa and Jecht. Vidina was upstairs, sleeping. Past the side of them, there was this blue portal thingy. It kind of looked the same as the one Yuna, Tidus and Yulina had passed through. "Isn't that like the portal that we went through...?" Yuna said pointing at it. Tidus just nodded.
"So," he was talking to everyone, they gave him their attention, "what are we supposed to do? Walk through it? I mean Yuna, Yulina and I walked through a portal and ended up here so do you think we'll end up in Spira? Maybe this is the time when we can return."
"But what if it wasn't, ya?" Wakka said.
"Then I don't know," Tidus said. Just when he was going to say something he was interrupted. It was the voice that he, Yulina and Yuna had heard before on the day that Yulina remembered Spira.
"This will be the portal to Spira and Zanarkand but not exactly. Some of you are to go in and some are to not. It is important that you go, though, you will know why you are here then, I hope. It will be in the past in Zanarkand and Spira. I warn you though. Once some of you see yourselves being shot then that is when the soldiers are able to see you. Your job is to get out from under Bevelle and you will find you yourself what to do next. If you succeed then you will be safely back here. If not then you all be where you were before Yulina had the Rebirth. Okay? Just be aware that you can be shot. You will get your weapons that you had a while ago once you go through."
Everyone wanted to ask something but then time the voice was already gone and the portal was still there. Tidus shrugged and then jerked his chin towards the portal. "Anyone going?" he asked.
"I want to!" Yulina said, Tidus shook his head. "Why?"
"I can't let you. I don't want you getting hurt. You will stay."
"Okay..." After discussing who should go. Yulina and Wakka was left. Yuna didn't want her to be by herself if Seymour was around and besides, Wakka had a baby to take care of. They walked into the similar deep blue something that Yuna and Tidus went through and that was the last that Yulina saw of then for a while...
A/n: There! I think that I left you guys on a small cliffie! Yay! Okay just remeber to review! Bye now!
