Searching for Thieves: A RIKKU MISSION

Disclaimer: I hope I won't have to say this again. I DO NOT OWN FINAL FANTASY X-2 BUT SOMEDAY, I'M GONNA WORK AT SQUARE-ENIX AND TAKE THE COMPANY!

Rikku: You aren't very responsible you know.

! Read the chapter while I pummel her…

Rikku: Hey!

Chapter 3: Auron (This is all in Rikku's POV)

I was floating down. Like a flower petal, slowly drifting from the air. Like a leaf falling from a tree on a brisk autumn day. The legendary guardian held me. He dropped me down onto the ground.

"Let us travel to our next destination," Auron said.

"Can we rest a bit?" I asked.

"Bye," Auron said as he walked away.

"Hey!" I yelled and followed after him. He touched the edge of the ocean gently with his katana. The sky turned into the colors of a sunset, deep reds, pale reds, violent purples, and faint blues. The sea rippled far and wide. When the water stopped rippling, it turned into a solid icy road. Happy as I was, I ran across the icy pathway. But somewhere, someplace, I could swear I heard Yuna singing.

"I long for the Celsius Auron." I told him. He stepped towards me and hugged me. Pyreflies puffed within each grasp. He told me to follow him and he led me to a small field covered in flowers. There was a cave in the middle of the field. Moon-shaped flowers lingered around them. Daffodils drifted from the sky.

"Lovely…" I whispered. I headed towards the cave, "Will a sphere be in there?" and he answered me with a slight shake of his head but it was in a diagonal motion which meant he didn't know. I ran into the cave. Auron… He was following right behind… I reached out for him. He grabbed my hand. Then, a brunette girl wearing a long, flowing, robe appeared from the sky.

"Should I sing some music to set the mood?" and she burst in song. Auron hugged me and we danced.

The sky turned into a dark night. The moon shone upon us. I remember…

"Rikku?"

"Yes?"

"Keep your focus."

"Yes sir!" My focus turned to Auron. His turned to me. I thought that he didn't like me then he got sent and I met him on the Farplane. Memories are memories. I like to keep them to myself. I usually don't do this but I spoke to Auron.

"Auron… I loved you." Then I thought I heard him say,

"I love you too."

I traveled many places far and wide. I met Gippal and fell in love with him. I could still never forget about Auron. Auron… my true first love… The one I'll never forget... The one that touched my heart… The one that loved me too…

But did he truly love me? I did not know. Did I truly love him? Yes, I did. Is this dance so ecstatic to me? Yes, time with me, him, and a lady who enjoys singing songs to set moods. I am dancing the waltz of love, tango of passion, and masque of nostalgia that will never end.
