Chapter 2:The Wounded

Sora sat in the orange tent, looking down at his keyblade. I miss her. He thought. But I must help fight with these people. I cannot let them die, I have to win this war.

Rikku entered the tent eating an apple and sat by her new friend. "Your friend is nice." she said.

"You think? He's kind of dumb." said Sora smiling. He had known Riku all his life, and when Riku submitted to darkness he thought he would lose him forever.

"No, not at all. He is very...sweet." Rikku blushed and then giggled.

"You like him don't you?" he said, "don't worry, he has no girls back on the island. You can have him..."

"YAY!" cheered Rikku, " I mean...cool." Tidus rushed into the tent, breathless.

"Fiends! Hurry!" he rushed back out of the tent. Sora looked over to Rikku,who was clenching a grenade.

Rikku jumped up and sprinted out of the tent and gasped, thousands of fiends were running towards them.Rikku jumped as a Barbatos threw its fist at her. She threw a grenade and ran to Yuna. "Yunie! You've got to summon! NOW!"

Yuna stepped back and twirled her staff. A fire circle formed around her and she kneeled to the ground pulling up a fire monster named Ifrit. Behemoths were now rising over the hill. They then turned green and were swirled in a green wave. Lulu had casted Bio Fury. Blue elements lined up behind them, casting Blizzara. Yuna casted reflect.

"SORA!" yelled Riku, "cure him!" he motioned towards an injured Kimahri.

"HEAL!" yelled Sora raising his keyblade, but he was interuppted by a booming noise. Chocobo eaters were running straight toward them.

"WAKKA!" yelled Lulu, "HIDE THE CHOCOBOS."

Ifrit fell to the ground and disappeared. Yuna then summoned Bahamut. "Please, help us." The ground began to shake and the powerful aeon casted his Overdrive, Mega Flare, destroying all the fiends. Yuna rushed over to see a wounded Tidus. He was crushed and just breathing. "Tidus.." whispered Yuna. She stepped back and casted Curaga. He was still very injured. Kimahri picked him up and took him to the medical tent.

"Why is this happening?" asked Sora sitting on a cot. Lulu stood up and walked to the corner of the tent.

"It all started when we met him in Luca before a Blitz game. He was so kind. After that champion game he saved us all. But he had many dark secrets. When we met him again in mushroom rock he was different, but in the end he was the hero stopping the Sin spawn. When we went to Guadosalam... he..." she trailed off. TIdus butted in.

"Asked Yuna to marry him. He was bad from the start...Oh I knew it... Crazy. He killed his father, he tried to kill us. He kept coming back stronger and stronger."

"Who?" asked Riku. He loved this kind of stuff. It caught his intrest.

"Seymore." said Yuna bluntly. "He now has control of the fiends and is trying to destroy us."

"Where's everyone else? I mean, why are fighting alone." Sora was majorly confused.

"Well, we committed a crime against Yevon and now we are being shunned. We must do this alone."

"That battle was easy though..." said Riku.

"Are you kidding me?" said Lulu, "well, fine. Next battle you're on your own then. Trust me, we'll have many more."

"Oh, no, I didn't mean it that way..." he received many glares. "I'll just shut up now..." he pulled his pillow over his head and fell asleep.

"He doesn't get out much...does he?" said Wakka, spinning the ball on his finger.

"Oh, he does. But where we live there aren't too many people. You see where we live on a tropical island, there are not many people to talk to or anything." he stood up and walked outside, but quickly rushed back in. "Uh, did you know there are people out there with guns? BECUASE THERE ARE." Everyone stood up and Riku snapped out of dreamland.

"Oh, I wish Tidus could help." Yuna gulped.

"Well, he can't" said Riku pulling out a dark sword. He was still tired and thinking of this horrible dream he had. "Okay," whispered Riku, "just channel your anger. Channel it and-" he was thrown back by a ball of fire shooting out of his sword.

"WHAT THE!" shouted Sora. "What are you doing over there!"

"I don't know."

"YEVON GUARDS!" shouted Auron, slicing one in half. "Lulu, cast Blizzarga on this flamethrowing Monk!" he shouted, throwing a potion on his burn wound.

"FREEZE!" shouted Lulu, throwing down her arm. A machina kicked her. "Anyone want a jolt?" asked Lulu, casting Thundera Fury.

"Please help us." said Yuna to her Ixion.

"Whoa! What is that?" asked Sora in amazment. He obviously didn't see the Bahamut...

"Are you serious?" said Wakka, "that Bahamuts attack wiped out everything."

"I thought it was a grenade." said Sora. He didn't know how strong a grenade one, but it was not enough to kill all of the fiends.

"I wish!" said Rikku, throwing a Al Bhed potion in the air. Riku threw his dark sword in the air and another unexpected attack came from it.

"SORA! SUMMON SIMBA!" he yelled. Sora stood back and streams went into the sky as Simba stood on Pride Rock. Simba jumped down and started attacking the Guards.

"YUNIE!" yelled Rikku. Yuna's Ixion had fell to the ground and so had Yuna. Her powers were weak and she needed rest. "Kimahri, take Yuna to the Tent, I'll finish off the rest of these guards."

"Wait," groaned Yuna, " I can summon. Please."

"No. Yuna need rest. " said Kimahri.

Lulu doublecasted and finished off the rest of the Guards. They all sighed in relief and picked up potions, grenades, elixers, ect. Rikku ran over to one of the Monks and took the rest of his money. "Should I go back to Besaid and get some weapons?" asked Rikku.

"You should get some medicines for Tidus." said Lulu. "Here I'll get you a list." she walked off and came back with a piece of parchment.

"Wait...We'll come with you." said Sora, nudging Riku. They both got up and walked out of the tent.

"You'll be alright without us?" asked Rikku.

"Yes, now go." said Kimahri.

Okay, so that's my second chappie. Now don't worry, Tidus and Yuna will get better later. The next chappie is all Rikku, Riku and Sora. Some flirting and some tragic news. Review please!
