---------------------------------------------------------------
Outside of Bevelles giant gate doors, Auron in a well achieved disguise of mud, grass, some new self inflicted wounds to his face, a new shirt and trousers and a dirty old cloak that he found, is standing in a line of people being checked for the intruders. Auron wasn't pleased with what he was doing but this was the only way. If he got caught then the guards would pull their positions leaving blind spots for the others to sneak in easier and if he doesn't then the others where on their own.
He got up to the front of the gate and the one soldier looked at Auron with a hard look. Auron paid no mind and kept his eyes straight.
"Sir sorry but we have to look at you closely, so if you don't mind please remove the cloak," the soldier said to his left. Auron did removing his cloak to reveal his under clothing with his Katana in his shoulder sheath. Both soldiers looked at him hard and talked a few minutes to each other's. Auron kept his cool and scanned the area quickly for an escape route if this goes bad.
"Sorry sir, you are not the person we are looking for. Please continue on," the soldier said and waved Auron through. Auron picked up his cloak and put it on and walked into the city of Bevelle.
-------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile near a water drain that leads from inside the gates, Tidus and Rikku where stand aside making sure no one was around. Tidus looked at the grate that holds back what materials that isn't supposed to be allowed out of the city.
"Looks like someone was here before us," Tidus whispered as he pointed out how loose the grate was by easily moving it.
"Or it could be a trap," Rikku whispered back.
"Either way this is the way we are getting in," Tidus said as he helped Rikku up into the drain and he quickly followed in with her, putting the grate back on the drain.
----------------------------------------------
On another side of Bevelle wall, we find Kimarhi and Yuna hidden in a tree that sits closest to the wall. There were two guards and one light that shown down on the forest.
"Are you sure, Kimarhi," Yuna asked with uncertainty in her voice. Kimarhi's plan was to jump from the shadow of the tree, over the wall and into the shadow of one of the guard's house.
"Kimarhi never answered but waited until the light go by and jumped. Yuna closed her eyes and held tight as they flew through the air and landed on the ground.
Yuna opened her eyes to see Kimarhi standing still looking up at one of the guards. The guard seems spooked as he looked left and right.
"Did he see us," Yuna whispered by Kimarhi's left ear.
"Kimarhi don't think," the ronso said not moving a muscle but a voice caught his and Yuna's attention.
"Hey..." the voice said and Yuna thought they were busted and only gripped Kimarhi tighter.
"Are you okay," the voice said as a guard came walking from one of the towers at the corner of the wall.
"I don't know. I think something just flew by me," the man said. Both men looked around for a bit.
"Must have been a bird," the other soldier said and both continued on with their shift.
Yuna and Kimarhi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly but stealthily moved to a different shadow away from the soldiers.
---------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, Wakka and Lulu were entering through the front gates hidden from everyone's view.
"Wakka this has got to be the lamest idea you had yet," Lulu whispered as she and Wakka sat buried in a wagon full of blitz balls.
"Ya, I know but this is going to be the easiest way in," Wakka whispered to her. The wagon stopped and they both watched from little holes between the balls as the guards walked around and checked their load.
"A load of blitz balls, eh. Well the children will be happy to see those," the one guard said as he walked towards the front.
"Yeah I know and they better not steal from me this time," the man bringing the load in yelled.
"Yeah yeah yeah," the soldier said as he waved the wagon through.
"See I told ya," Wakka whispered as they entered the city.
"Well its still the lamest because how are we supposed to get out without being spotted," Lulu asked. Wakka was silent for a moment before responding.
"I never thought that far ahead," he said. Lulu just sighed.
"Well hopefully it gets us to the center where we need to be," Lulu said as the wagon was being pulled through the city.
----------------------------------------------
In the middle of the city where the Bevelles Temple Entrance sits, Seymour and a few guard where standing there.
"Are you sure they are here, Maester," the one guard captain said looking around.
"Yes, there is an uneasy feeling in the air," Seymour said with a wicked smile on his face.
"Should we sound the alarm and get the soldiers to this point," the guard captain said.
"No, that would alert them that I know they are here," Seymour said a little annoyed.
"Then what shall we do," the guard captain said with a dumb look on his face.
"Go back to your posts. I will call if I need you," Seymour said as he entered the Temple, leaving the soldiers with a look of disbelief.
"Well you heard him, back to your post," was the guard captains voice Seymour heard as he walked down the small stair well into an open area where the Temple Trails begin.
"Morons," Seymour said to himself as he stopped in the middle of the room. He raised his hands and possessed soldiers came out from the shadows.
"You will attack on my command. Kill everyone except Lady Yuna," Seymour said and the soldiers nodded before going back to the shadows.
-------------------------------------------
Auron was walking the City streets to where the Temple was in the middle of the city. He didn't like what was unfolding before him, little resistance and no one guarding the temple, something wasn't right. He slowly made his way to the entrance, stopping at a small shop to get bread and some ale to drink, before sitting on the steps to the entrance. He quickly made it look like he was sitting down and resting a bit before continuing on. After eating and drinking a pebble hit his foot. Auron looked in the direction it came to find Kimarhi and Yuna hidden from everyone's except his view. Auron nodded acknowledging that he see's them. He picked up the ale in one hand and making it look like he was toasting the invisible man and took a swig.
Kimarhi nodded his head to show that he understood Auron.
"What is he doing," Yuna asked out of curiosity.
"Sir Auron wants us to hold here for the others before making a move," Kimarhi whispered. Yuna looked at Kimarhi as if he was crazy.
"Sir Auron taught signals to Kimarhi long time ago," the ronso whispered to her. Yuna with nothing to say to the subject huddled back behind Kimarhi where she was hidden from everyone views.
-------------------------------
Tidus and Rikku where making there way in the drainage before stopping in an area where there was little to no activity above them.
"We hit the streets from here and keep close to the shadows," Rikku said as she pushed the street grate up and away. She looked out to find no one around and hopped out. Tidus followed suit and put the grate back before getting to Rikku's side at the corner of a building.
"Downtown looks busy," Tidus said.
"Keep close to me and stay in the shadows and we shall be fine," Rikku said with grin.
"Okay," Tidus said and both silently went towards the middle of the city keeping close to the shadows.
-------------------------------
The wagon with Lulu and Wakka stopped at a near by pub, which was busy.
"Great Wakka, now how do we get out," Lulu whispered angrily at him.
"I am working on it, Lu," Wakka said trying to come up with a plan in five seconds. Lulu was just irritated by now and couldn't stand being in that wagon any longer and jumped out and launched two firaga and waterga attacks on nearby houses and people. The houses where set ablaze and the people where swept away by the water. A nearby weapons wagon got on fire, causing a big explosion.
"We run now," Lulu said as she grasped Wakka's hand and dragged him out of the wagon. The people where stunned and confused by all that was happening only ran in freight and never saw Wakka or Lulu head down a dark alley deserted by people.
"I thought we weren't supposed to bring attention to ourselves," Wakka said after about five minutes of dodging into dark alleyways and away from people. Lulu never answered but kept going towards the temple area.
------------------------------------------
A few minutes passed and Auron was starting to worry. He looked over towards Kimarhi to find that the ronso and Yuna where still hidden.
"Now where are the rest of you," he said as a big explosion caught his attention.
"Tidus," Auron said as he stood up to see people run buy him. He looked over to see Kimarhi and Yuna still hidden from view looking towards where the explosion was. They all looked at each other and wondered if they should go and find out if it was Tidus, Rikku, Wakka or Lulu. Auron shook his head no after a bit and sat down in the same spot.
--------------------------------
Tidus and Rikku where nearing a crowded area when the explosion happened. People ran past them as they hid in the shadows of an alleyway.
"You think Auron did that," Tidus asked Rikku.
"I don't know," Rikku said but then noticed something coming at them.
"I think we been spotted," she said as she pointed the two figures out in the dark alley on the opposite side of the street. Tidus only answered by bringing out his Brotherhood sword and took a fighting stance as Rikku took out her Godhand weapon.
Both where astonished on what they saw as the two figures stopped and a little flame lit up to reveal Wakka and Lulu. Tidus and Rikku made sure that no one was coming up or down the street before running into the alley with Wakka and Lulu.
"Hey long time no see," Tidus said.
"How did you know it was us, I could barely make you both out," Rikku said.
"By that," Wakka said pointing to Tidus's Brotherhood sword.
"The blue sort of gave you away," Lulu said looking at Tidus.
"Well I'll make sure it stays in its scabbard unless it is needed," Tidus said putting the sword back in its sheath.
"Good now lets get going, Auron must be worried sick," Lulu said as they all left that alley and pursued up to where Auron and that where.
------------------------------------------
Still sitting on the steps to the entrance of the Temple bored out of his mind, Auron decided that he was going to go search for the others. He stood up and stretched as soldiers came running past him to the scene that took place. He picked his things up and started to walk away when something hit him in the head. He turned to find a tiny rock sitting on the ground and looked up towards the direction it came. He saw dark figures in the alleyway and then a blue sword that revealed who they were.
Auron turned back made sure no one was looking and pointed to the one side of the temple that was pretty covered by crates of unknown equipment. He then turned to Kimarhi and pointed to the same place.
Everyone met in that area and got himself or herself ready for the up coming battle.
"This is where it all ends and the truth is revealed," Auron said after looking out into the streets to make sure no one was around and he lead the group out of the shadows and in front of the temple. Auron entered the temple first followed by Tidus, Yuna, Wakka, Lulu and Kimarhi bring up the rear. They made their way down the small stair well and to the room where the entrance to the Temple Trials where and where Seymour was standing in front of the entrance.
"This ends now Seymour," Auron yelled bringing up his Katana.
"Oh really," Seymour said with a cocky smile.
"You bet, and this time your not coming back," Tidus yelled. Seymour only laughed and raised his right hand and snapped his fingers. The possessed soldiers appeared from the shadows with their weapon raised high and ready to kill.
"A trap," Lulu said.
"I knew it. It was too easy," Auron said.
"I knew you where all coming since yesterday. My private spies followed you," Seymour said as the Hell Riders appeared at the steps they came down from.
"You created those horrible things," Yuna said.
"Yes my dear and unless you don't want your friend's hurt I suggest to surrender to me," Seymour said smiling with a wicked smile.
"She will never surrender to you," Auron yelled charging in at Seymour. Seymour was calm as the sea as the enraged warrior came running at him. He raised his left hand and snapped his fingers, and Auron stopped dead in his tracks. Everyone took their battle stance and searched around for a sniper.
"Auron you okay," Tidus yelled at Auron. Seymour smiled but this brought chills down everyone's back.
"He is under my control now," Seymour said and Auron turned towards the group.
"I obey Maester Seymour now," Auron said as the group gasped at the darkened eye warrior.
----------------------------------
Authors note: I had this idea of turning Auron against the group a long time ago but I was to busy to write it. Now I need some feed backs because I think I rushed it. Anyways review please.
