A/N: Well here I am again! 11 reviews...I'm shocked! Hehe. I had this one fic (that I deleted) and it had, I think, eight chapters and only eight reviews. Lol. So I'm glad you guys like this one! Just so you know, the characters ages aren't the same as in the game. Yuna, Tidus and Rikku are 22, Lulu's 24, Wakka's 26, and Auron is 30. That way, Auron and Rikku only have an eight year age difference. I think a 15 year old and a 35 year old is just a bit much. I can't help i! Well, enough of my blabbing! On ith chapter four! Oh, and the truck is set up kind of lik a van. You know, two front seats, middle seat, then long back seat. Okay, now chapter here's chapter four.
Disclaimer: I don't own FFX. I don't even own the clothes on my back...
Chapter 4: Finally On The Road
0000
"We're ten minutes late. I wanted to be on the I-10 by ten," complained Tidus. He was driving the truck full of passengers down the busy bridge that now connected Besaid and Kilika.
"Well, we would have been on the road sooner if you hadn't gotten as excited as the girls," Auron said. He shared the midle seat with Rikku, who was playing on the built in laptop.
"I didn't act like the girls!"
"Yeah, ya did," stated Wakka. He shared the large back seat with Lulu.
"So, how do I turn on the t.v.?" Lulu asked. Searching the small screen, she found no buttons to turn it on.
"There should be a remote somewhere." Turning to Yuna, Tidus asked, " How close are we to our turnoff?"
"Close."
"Now what route are we taking again?" Lulu asked. She had found the small remote and clicked on the t.v. Leaning against Wakka, she began flipping through the channels.
"We have to go through Kilika, Luca, Mi'lhen, and Djose. Then we can by-pass Moonflow and Guadosalam, and from Macalana it's a straight shoot to Bevelle," anwered Yuna.
"Uh," moaned Tidus. "What's the turnoff I'm lokking for again?"
"Kilika 23." Glancing at the map, Yuna sighed. The destination looked so close on the piece of paper. Turning her attention from the map to bridge, she began to wonder how long it would take to get off the large stucture.
"Is this bridge ever going to end?" complained Rikku, as if voicing Yuna's thoughts.
"Complaining already," sighed Auron. He turned toward the window and tensed his muscle, expecting the playful smack from Rikku.
"Hush, Auron," Rikku said, doing just what Auron had expected and smacking him across the shoulder. Turning her attention back to the laptop, she shot the black eight ball in the corner pocket. "Yay! I win!"
"Lucky shot," Auron stated.
"Lucky shot?"
"That's what I said."
"Here we go..." Yuna sighed. Leave it to Auron and Rikku to find something as simple as a virtual pool game to get into a squabble.
"Lucky shot?" Rikku repeated again.
"Do I need to repeat myself?" Auron replied with a slight smirk.
"So how long do you think it will take to get to Bevelle?" Wakka asked from the backseat.
"Probably about three days," said Yuna. She looked down at the map. As soon as they got off the bridge they needed to take the second right. "After we get off this bridge, we need to take the second right Tidus."
"Gotcha," Tidus said, easing back in his seat. Man this bridge was long. But, it did connect Besaid and Kilika.
"Tidus, doesn't thing have a built in navigator?" Auron asked, turning his attention from Rikku to Wakka's question.
"Oh, ya. Why don't you punch in our destination, brudda?"
"All right," replied Tidus. He punched in their destination: Bevelle from Besaid. A computerized filled the truck.
"Bevelle from Besaid. One thousand, eight hundred, eighty-two miles. Thirty-five hours, forty-five minutes."
"Hmm, not as long as I thought," Yuna said.
"Well, considering rest stops, it will probably take us about three days. That is," Lulu added, "as long as Tidus decides to stay on the right path. Remember our last trip? It wasn't even off of the island."
"Okay, so I got us lost. It was only once! And, besides, Yuna navigating this time, not Wakka."
"Hey, you gave me the wrong map," Wakka pointed out.
"So Tidus isn't the best of navigators." Yuna gently rubbed his arm. "He'll do better this time."
"Yeah," Tidus agreed. At least someone believed in him. Well, Yuna always believed in him, but at least it was someone. And, he was glad that someone was Yuna.
"Anyways.." Rikku said, dragging out the word as her gaze shifted from Yuna to Tidus, who were staring at each other with dreamy looks on their face. "Auron, I challenge you to a game of pool."
"What?"
"That's right. A game of pool."
"You do realize that I am the king of pool?"
"So you say," Rikku said with a smile. "I plan to prove you wrong." She knew she was going to run him into the ground.
"Well, if you don't mind losing," Auron sighed, returning the smile. There was no way he was going to lose.
"Time to take up bets! I've got five gil on Auron," shouted Tidus.
"I second that," Wakka annonced. Anytime bets were made, the guys would flock together.
"That leaves us betting five gil on Rikku. Is that all right with you Yuna?"
"Sure, Lulu. Rikku's going to win anyways."
"Show 'em how it's done, Auron," Wakka encouraged.
So the last ten minutes of the ride over the bridge was spent by watching Auron and Rikku play a game of pool. Or more like watching Rikku bet the crap out of Auron. He still had five solids left on the table.
"Watch and learn, Auron Watch and learn," Rikku said as she sunk the eight ball. "Ha! I win!"
"Humph," was all Auron said.
"Pay up you two," shouted Lulu and Rikku.
Tidus and Wakka handed over thier five gil.
"Here ya go, Rikku," Wakka said as he handed her a bill as well.
"I didn't bet," Rikku said, taking the bill.
"No, but you beat Auron. You should get something for that," Tidus replied, handing her another gil.
"Thanks guys. But, bragging rights are enough for me."
"Well, then..." Tidus began.
"In that case," Wakka added, reaching around the seat.
"No, no. You guys gave it to me." She quickly pocketed the money.
"You liar," Wakka laughed.
"Oh, Tidus, here's our turnoff!" yelled Yuna.
