Pieces of Pain

Chapter 4

Yuna

Yuna stood in Paine's room and looked around her bed was made and the shelf and table were covered in spheres from the teams many hunts.

She looked through the spheres and saw some that Paine had done since they had last seen her. She looked through them and smiled most of them were recordings of the different places they had been on their journey through Spira.

She had spheres of the three of them together, and spheres of the whole group of friends together that they had taken after Vegnagun was defeated.

Yuna went and sat on her bed and was sitting there when Rikku walked into the room and sat next to her.

"I already miss her so much. I never thought I could grow to love her like a sister. She was always so aloof." Rikku said sadly.

"Yeah I know what you mean." Yuna said quietly.

Suddenly Tidus burst into the room. "Wakka and Lulu had their baby!" He said excitedly. Lulu had become pregnant again about a year after the birth of their first baby boy Valdina.

Yuna jumped up her mind temporarily taken off of Paine. Rikku was obviously the same way.

"Did they name him?" Rikku asked jumping up eagerness on her face.

"They won't tell us if it's a boy or girl until we get there!" Tidus yelled as he ran from the room to get his stuff together.

Rikku grabbed Yuna's hand and dragged her from the room. A few hours later Yuna, Rikku, Brother, Buddy, and Shinra arrived in Besaid Island. The Besaid Aurochs greeted them.

They walked towards Wakka and Lulu's house, but Wakka stopped them in front of the house and told them to go into the temple.

Yuna nodded and they all walked into the temple. Wakka walked up the stairs that led to the Chamber of the Faith.

He stopped at the top and turned to face them. "Lulu and I are the proud parents of twins! One girl and one boy! We have decided to name them Paine and Chappu. In honor of the people we have lost." Wakka said with a giant grin on his face.

Everybody's face dropped, Rikku started crying and Yuna was whimpering.

"I'm sorry we didn't mean to cause any pain but we wanted to honor Paine and Chappu, because they both meant so much to all of us." Wakka said looking around at them sadly.

Yuna calmed down and nodded, "Your right. It was a very kind and honorable thing to do. Paine would be honored to know that your baby was named after her." Yuna said trying to fight back her tears and control them for Wakka's sake.

Rikku stood up and dried her eyes; she reached for Auron's hand and held it. Auron smiled down at her and gave her tight a hug.

Brother and Buddy were standing off to the side keeping Shinra busy. Then they separated and took off to other areas of the island.

Yuna walked up above the waterfall and sat down next to it. She looked up into the sky and thought about Paine.

She had always been protecting them even if they never realized. Paine had kept them on the right path because Rikku and Yuna being more carefree would often run off on other things.

Yuna jumped when she felt someone touch her shoulder.

"Hey calm down it's just me." Gippal said as he sat down next to her.

"What are you doing here? I thought you had a lot of pressing business in Djose." Yuna said quietly looking out over the little island.

"Well I didn't really have a lot of work. I just wasn't ready to see everyone who knew her be in so much pain. I blame myself for her dying." Gippal said looking out over the ocean.

"She loved the ocean ya know." He continued. "She always wanted to sail around Spira on a boat." Gippal said laughing at the memories of Paine.

"She did? She never said anything to us." Yuna said surprised at just how much Gippal knew about the silver haired warrior.

"She never was very talkative. It took a while and a lot of hard breaks just to get her to trust us. I think the Crimson Squad disaster was what really tied us all together." Gippal said his face paling at the memory of the horrors they had experienced in the cave. Yuna put her arm around his shoulders and hugged him.

"You cared for her more then you realized didn't you?" Yuna said as she laid her head on his shoulder.

"Yeah I thought it was Rikku. I thought all the feelings I had were for her because we had a romantic past but once I lost Paine I realized I still had feelings for Rikku but I had a lot more feelings for Paine." Gippal said quietly.

Yuna sighed and stood up, "It's getting dark and the ceremony is about to start why don't you come down too?" Yuna said as she headed down the path from the waterfall to the village center.

That night there was a huge bonfire in honor of Paine and Chappu and the two newborn babies that were named after them.

Wakka walked towards the center of the bonfire, "Tonight we gather to honor the memory of two very important people. One is important mainly only to this island. Chappu was a teammate and friend to all of us. Paine was a member of the doomed Crimson Squad. She was also friend and protector of High Summoner Yuna. She died saving Guadosalam from the attack of fiends from the Farplane. Her memory will be forever held in every corner of Spira. Now let us introduce the two newest members of the island. Paine and Chappu!" Wakka cried as Lulu walked into the center with the two babies in her arms.

After several hours the party began to settle down and the partygoers began drifting off to their own homes to get some much-needed rest. Yuna and the gang stayed the night in the temple.
