Chapter 2: Where Am I?

I slowly flipped my eye lids open as I've finally woken up from what seemed like an endless sleep. I should better head back to the tents before Yuna starts worrying about me. I stood up, gave another stretch, before I noticed this was not the Isle of Besaid. Okay..where am I?

Last thing I remembered, I fell asleep on the beach, and now Iam lying on the bank of Moonflow. I heard footsteps approaching and whisper of some summoner's name being called.

"Where we goin now?"

"We're riding the shoopuf Jecht." came a gentle reply.

"I'll go on ahead to prepare for your ride my lord.

The last voice had somehow seem fimilar. The footsteps became louder and more obvious. I quickly laid down on the ground again and closed my eyes. It's better to look unconccience if I don't know who's comming my way. That's what pops always taught us when brother and I were young.

The footsteps were now loud stomps, and it stopped right infront of me. By now, my heart was thumping loudly as my bodypressed against the ground, it felt like every thump had shook the ground. I slowly peered up to see what had made the stomps stop. My swirley eyes met someone with red acoat. Iclosed my eyes again before he saw me awake.

"Hey Auron, why'cha stop?"

At first the voice seemed like Tidus but it was a guy with long hair with a bandana tied on his forehead and dressed like a blitzball player.

"Hmph, I found her unconscience lying on the ground." Came the man in red.

Wait...he had the same red coat, pony tail, and sword as....no this can't be...but just then the guy addressed him as Auron. If he's Auron, then this must be...JECHT? Wait...somene else is comming, he seemed to be dressed in a formal way, like a summoner. If I had remembered correctly from the Spheres Tidus obtained during the pilgrimage, this is my famous uncle Braska.

"What is it Auron"

"My Lord, I've found this girl unconsciouswhen I came across the road, shall we leave her here?"

That was mean! Even when he was young, why was he still so cold and unloving?

"No, we should carry her to the Inn up front first, she needs our help" Braska said firmly

Thank you, at least SOMEONE cared. But for now, I 'll pretend I am still unconscious, while I think of a plan.

"But my lord, the pilgrimage is our main concern, we should not let anything else get in the way"

"Oh don't be so stubborn Auron" Jecht sneered.

With that I felt to arms wrapped around my body and carried me for the rest of the way.

His steps were paced and I could hear his steady breathing, inhaling, exhaling. It would be nice to be wrapped around his warm body for the rest of my life, but like that's ever gonna happen.

I heard the doors opened and Auron purchased a room for me. Then he slowly placed me on the soft bed and walked out of the room. I heard his footsteps fade, as I slowly opened my swirley eyes once again.
