Chap. 5 Blackout Horrors 2
-------------- Yuna's POV --------------
'Rikku has been out cold for way too long. I really think it was Gippal's fault, but....., she
blamed me. Maybe I was a little too harsh by slapping him so many times, but Rikku was mad
by what I said! How could she think I would say that to ruin her life! I was just trying to help
her. Just by telling him he should leave school.'
"Him leave school?! Yeah RIGHT!"
"Who were you talking to Yuna?"
"No one but myself Paine. Hey! Do you think Rikku's been out cold too long?"
"No. As long as she's out cold, she will heal. Heal all of her internally mental wounds. This
is helping her."
"I hope you're right Dr. P."
"Don't, I repeat, don't call me that!"
------------------- Rikku's POV (inside her mind) -------------------
Flashback -------------
'I hope I'm happy. Maybe I can catch up with them!'
"Wait UP! Please!"
"RIKKU?! What the hell are you doing here?!"
"I wanna go to the big gorge over that way some ways." Pointing to the left. "I just
followed you guys for a while. That's all. OK Gippal?"
"Fine, but I'm not coming to save you. I don't really care if you die, anyways. Well Cid's
Girl, have fun."
"You are so rude Gippal! You, you....... ARROGANT, PIG-HEADED BASTARD!!!
Stay away from me. You PIMMO!"
I was so shocked at what I just said. I was a nine-year old Rikku yelling at a twelve-year
old Gippal to stay away. Suddenly I turned away,
afraid to show my tears, so I ran. I ran away straight to the gorge I was looking for. I heard
yells from behind me, but I didn't listen. I wanted to jump to the depths below in the gorge, but I
didn't. My green, slightly gold hued, swirled eyes got wide when I heard a roar. I was ready to
scream, but I held the scream back. I didn't feel like fighting a fiend. I was covered with
scratches and bruises from falling over rocks and sticks. The same fiend roared again, except, it
was right next to me. I grabbed my small gun out of its holster, when the fiend lurched at me. I
ran to the side, so it missed me. Then I aimed a shot at the fiend's head, and killed it with one
shot. As the pyreflies flew around me I said, "One fiend killed, tons more to go! Yay!!"
As I was doing my little victory dance, I didn't notice another fiend come near me. The
fiend came near me and pushed me over the edge of the gorge. I started falling over the edge to
the bottom, and grabbed a jutting rock, hanging for dear life.
"HELPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!" I accidentally let go and screamed more.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" I caught on another jutting rock, and made sure not
to let go.
------------------ Gippal's POV ------------------
"HELPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"
"Did any of you guys just hear that?"
"I sure did. It was a girl." said Nhadala.
"So did I. Maybe we should go help who it is." said Keyakku.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!"
"It's my SISTER you dumbasses! We need to help her right now! I'm coming to save you
RIKKU!" yelled Brother. Then he started running off in the direction of the screams.
"Maybe we should follow him. He could kill himself AND Rikku." said Nhadala.
Everyone followed Brother in the direction of the screams. They already knew where
Rikku went. Then everything went silent, and there were no more screams. They all got to the
gorge as fast as they could, all thinking they were to late. Then they all cautiously neared the
edge of the gorge. They all looked over the edge and saw two small, tiny hands hanging on a
jutting rock for dear life.
"RIKKU!" everyone cried in unison.
"Huh....? Who....... is....... calling....... Me?" Then she passed out, practically letting go.
"I'm coming to get you Rikku!" yelled Brother.
"No you're not!" yelled Nhadala.
"I'll go. I'm coming Rikku!" yelled Gippal.
"Gippal, you can't! You said you weren't going to save her!" said Nhadala.
"Too bad! She's in too much danger! We can't just let her die!!!"
"Fine then Gippal! Do that!" --------------- Another Flashback ---------------
"I wish you were here with me Yunie! Everything's going completely wrong! Pulease come
here!"
"I can't Rikku! I'm too busy with my pilgrimage!"
"Fine! Maybe I should come capture you! That would teach ya!"
"Sorry Rikku! I have to go. Bye R! See ya!" 'click'
"NO!! YUNIE!!! I don't want... 'sob' to be... 'sob' alone!"
----------------- Yet Another -----------------
"Brother!?........ Keyakku!?......... Anyone!?...... Please answer me!"
I was at a very scary cave. I was following Gippal and his friends, then lost track of them. I
came here for shelter because it started raining.
"Hello! Is anyone in here? I thought I heard someone calling someone!"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
A fiend came near me ready to strike. I just wanted it to go away. Maybe it was a good
idea to get killed by it.
---------------- Flashbacks ended ----------------
I woke up to the real world. I was sweating from my last flashback, just to make sure I
was still here. I saw all my friends, they weren't coming towards me, they were leaving! Leaving
me!
"Will anyone stay with me? Can't you guys here me? Please??"
I didn't know what happened, but then I saw everyone with tears in their eyes. I was going
to find out what happened that week I was gone. I didn't find out, until the next CHAPPIE!
