The whole day they went around checking on everyone. The soldiers had actually caused a bit of damage. The temple wasn't harmed except for a few little chips in the stone. The girls went around to comfort some people who had come in contact with the soldiers. Some of the women had been abused by some of the soldiers.
Rikku was furious. They finished up and met in the center of the town.
"Tyssed! E LYH'D PAMEAJA ED!! Fryd ec so tyt DREHGEHK???"
Yuna looked confused. "Whoa, whoa! Calm down, Rikku! What did you say?"
Rikku sighed but was still very mad. "I said, I can't believe it! What is my dad THINKING???"
Auron raised an eyebrow. "That's not all I heard."
Rikku's eyes widened and she looked at the ground. "That's not the point!" She lifted her head with fury in her eyes. "What has he let the men come down to??? You have to tame guys!"
The guys looked like they were about to say something but she interupted them.
"I mean if you don't, then they'll just be all perverted!"
"Hey!" Wakka and Tidus protested.
"I mean, that's what all guys are deep down! You just have to tame them, not to show it!"
"Rikku!" Auron said with a forceful voice,"Stop."
Rikku turned twords him with no intention of weakening. "No! I will NOT stop!"
He grabbed her wrist. "Calm down. You don't know what your saying!"
She tried to get out of his grip but he only held her tighter. "I do too! Let go of me!"
"No! I will not let go until you calm down!" His voice was rising and she kept jerking around, trying to free her wrist.
"Well I guess we'll be here for a few years, then!"She jerked more forcefully.
"Rikku, stop!"
"NO!" She jerked one last time and broke his grasp. She was panting and she backed up from the group.
"I'm going to the base! I'm going to stop them! And you can't stop me!" Rikku turned to run.
"Rikku stop!" Auron ran twords her, but she turned back and threw a smoke bomb.
When the smoke cleared the group ran after her, Auron led the group. They followed her to the beach.
Yuna yelled to Auron,"Look! She's going to get on that boat!"
They saw a boat starting to leave. They got to the dock but it was too late. Rikku jumped onto the boat, and it was too late to try and jump it. Auron stood at the edge of the dock and Rikku turned back to look at him. They watched each other till the boat was just a tiny speck. Auron turned to the group.
"What are we gonna do?"
