Can I Go Home Now?

What happens when a potentaly insane girl is transported to Spira because of a freak PS2 accident involving soda? My New Chapter is FINALLY Up: Disney Songs Are Scarring

9. The Real Chapter 9: Delays

Disclaimer: I own only my grades. I didn't know grades could plummet that fast.

We had a Crucible test today. We had to say who we'd cast to play various people and I was gonna say the Van Helsing dude but I forgot his name and spent the rest of the day trying to remember it. AND I KNOW I'LL REMEMBER IT TOMORROW! Damn it!

The Real Chapter 9: Delays

After many threats to run the snowmobile off the bridge, and Kimahri and Shea duct taping m to the back of the snowmobile, we finally reached the entrance to Macalania Temple. A guard was there in front of the door. They untied me, I ran around screaming "freedom!" for a while, and then Rikku and I ran up to the door.

"Halt! The likes of them are not welcome in this hallowed place"

I reached down, grabbed his subtitle and changed it to say Halloween. Hehe.

"You can't keep me out of here! Halloween is the one day of the year when taking candy from strangers is encouraged! EET'S MAH DAY TAH SHINE!"

Auron sighed.

"They are guardians"

"Al Bhed, guardians? Preposterous!" The guard yelled.

"I've decided to be Yuna's guardian now, and that's all I want" Rikku begged.

I however had more integrity.

"And what about you, much more slutty one?" the guard asked.

"They've been dragging me along since Besaid, nearly killed me a few times, and made me be Yuna's guardian"

"What?"

"Oh, I mean I just wanna protect Yuna"

"And that's all one needs to be a guardian" Auron stopped me.

"Very well"

We all entered the temple, and I ran around crazily trying to find the candy. That princess Lea wannabe known as Shelinda ran up to me.

"Ah! There you are! So Lady Yuna is getting married. You shouldn't kid around about these things!" She yelled.

"What are you talking about? Who the Hell are you?!"

"You're not happy?"

"Happy?! A random Star Wars freak just ran up to me and started yelling at me about Yuna getting married!"

As fast as my legs could carry me I ran away from her before she tried to use the force on me or something.

"Do you guys know where Yuna is?"

"I believe... she's gone to the Cloister of Trials with Maester Seymour"

"AAHHH! Go away, you psycho freak!" I waved my hand in the air "You will go away"

The weirdest part was... she did!

"Dude! I'm a Jedi! Fuckin' awesome!" I jumped up and down.

"Ooh, you got a light saber?" Shea asked.

"Hmm" I pulled out a flashlight and clicked it on "Chheew! Vwom! Vwom! Voooo! Vwom! Kcch! Vwoom!"

Well, of course Shea pulled hers out and we had a battle. She checked me into a wall after a while.

"Yes, Pretz, use your hate. Join me on the dark side of the force!"

"Never!"

"It is your destiny! Look inside, you'll see the truth"

We fought some more, making our own cheesy sound effects.

"I'm feeling something strange inside. What are you doing to me?!"

"Your rightful place is at my side. You know it is true" Shea said.

"What do you mean? What does all this mean?" I asked in a very crybaby-ish voice.

"Pretz... I am your... COUNSELOR!"

"NNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I guess in all the epic battle for camp and stuff something important had happened. This girl out of a random, much less important room.

"Lord Jyscal!" She screamed.

"Lady, Elvis is dead... leave it alone..." Shea said.

"A sphere, in Lady Yuna's belongings..."

So naturally everyone ran into that random, much less important room that suddenly became more important, which shall now be known as 'Jyscal's Sphere room'.

"This may well answer a few questions" Auron said.

Auron handed Tidus the sphere. He placed it on the floor and turns it on. Then Auron smacked him for putting it on the floor where no one can see it like a moron. Once he fixed it we saw an image of Lord Jyscal, with a cloudy background as if he's underwater, and several bubbles floated up every so often. Ah! I'm having an acid trip! Every so often, lightning appeared to strike in the distant background. Why was he in a pool of soda in the Thunder Plains? It's no wonder he's dead. I felt a speech coming on. We all know what that means.

"What I am about to tell you is the unclouded truth. I swear it on my honor as a Guado"

"Guado honor is like French bravery, it does not exist!"

"Listen to me very carefully, for I shall tell you the truth about my son, Seymour"

"He's gay? I knew it!"

"His mind is closed even to me, a maester of Yevon"

"Well, he is taller than you. And a little less ugly, so..."

"But I can feel flames of darkness burning in his heart"

"Stop it with your Jedi mind tricks! You speak lies!"

"He is using Yevon, the Guado, and even the summoners"

"Ha! I knew it! Yuna owes me 20 gil!"

"If he is not stopped, he will surely bring destruction and chaos to Spira"

"Umm, too late..."

"I will leave this world soon, killed by my own son"

"Hehe, red rum..."

"But I do not fault him"

"What?! Why not!? He killed you, you idiot!"

"Because I was not wise enough, he has suffered, and become twisted"

"I think he was born pretty twisted. I saw that picture of him at the mansion. He's like 5 and he's already gone Texas Chainsaw Massacre on is stuffed bear..."

"I could not protect him and his mother from the world and its cruelty"

"Hehe, stupid half breed. Wait a minute... What am I saying?"

"I will accept death as punishment for my deeds"

"Oh well. Too late now, eh?"

"But whoever is watching this..."

"The what now…...?"

"I implore you to stop Seymour! Stop my son"

"Hmm. Implore...cchhhh, yeah! Ya know what? Nah-uh!"

"To stop him quickly you must-"

Before he could finish I kicked the sphere.

"Wonderful, Pretz. You may have brought about a chain reaction that could bring about the next apocalypse" Auron said.

I gasped. Shea spoke up finally.

"You, big trouble! You, lighten up! You, get in the car!" She said pointing at me, Auron and then empty space.

"Um... Shea... There's no one there. And we don't have a car" I said blankly.

"Car sounds like mar. Mar has an 'M' in it. 'M' is the first letter in machina! Forbidden machina!" Wakka screamed.After bribing- I mean asking Lulu to cast silence on him, I finally showed my first sign of feelings for others for a long time.

"Will Yuna be all right?" I asked quietly.

Auron walked out of the room.

"Without us, no"

Kimahri ran out and Rikku followed.

"Where you goin'?" Wakka asked as if we were deserting him.

"You saw, didn't you? Seymour's bad news!" Tidus yelled at him.

"But he's a maester!"

"Fine! Stay here if you want!"

"Come on, Wakka. Let's at least hear him out" Lulu urged him.

"This can't be happening"

Finally after everyone else had left, I walked up to Wakka.

"You know, Wakka, you say you're a devout Yevonite, and you would do anything to protect your summoner, but you won't even help Yuna now. She needs you Wakka, and now of all times you choose not to be her guardian? Don't guardians have a code or something? 'Protect the summoner blah blah blah no matter what'. Yuna hates me, and I'm still going to help her. I'm her guardian. It's my job. You should do yours" I turned to leave, "I know that Yevonism is one big hypocrisy, but... Wait... WHAT IS YOUR RELIGION CALLED? AND WHY THE HELL DON'T I GET PAYED FOR THIS?"

Wakka shoved me and stormed out of the room. Shea walked in and helped me up.

"Wow, Pretz"

"What?"

"I didn't know you were going to help Yuna after all she's done to ya. You really would have made a good counselor. You've got guts" She said noogieing me.

I pulled away and ran out the door.

"C'mon, you can be my G.I.T." I laughed.

"A what?"

"Guardian in training"

"G.I.T... git... Hey! You turd!"

I burst into the door to the Cloister of Trials with Shea's arm around my neck. Tidus ran up to her.

"Shea, no!" He started scolding her, "Your hands are too small! Let me do it!" He finished and started choking me as Shea laughed.

"Kimahri's up ahead. Get Sirius you three!"

As I read his subtitle I noticed something. He said get Sirius, not serious. Hmm, time to collect a bounty on a wizard I guess.

"Right!" Tidus said running at the door, bouncing off it and falling to the ground."We will protect Yuna from anyone. Even a master. Tidus, what did I tell you this morning?"

Tidus stood up and rubbed his foot on the ground in little circles. It kinda reminded me of Thumper.

"If you're gonna run into another room" he paused for a moment, "you need to open up the door first"

"This can't be happening" Wakka sighed.

"If he is truly at fault, it must be done" Lulu reassured him.

"Hey, we were thinking" Rikku, Shea and I stepped forward, "Could just us go. She could really use the experience, and our little group is called SRP now... Whaddya say?"

Auron looked at us for a while, looking like he was thinking about it.

"Absolutely not. You three are the worst guardians in Spira" He said coldly.

Oh, poopie! We ran through the tunnel to the next room, where mascara boy was standing on a staircase leading to the Chamber of the Fayth, where Yuna was I assumed. Unless of course he had duct taped her in a closet somewhere. The door to the chamber was closed and a Guado guard was standing on either side of the stairs. 'Are they supposed to me Seymour's muscle men to scare us or something? They look kinda scrawny to me' I thought.

"Seymour!" I yelled out.

"Please be silent. Lady Yuna prays to the fayth" Seymour said in that freakily calm funeral home director voice of his.

"Make me!" Being a smartass is just what I do.

Seymour turned around and walked down the steps. He smirked at us, which is nightmares for me! The chamber doors opened and Yuna walked out. Seymour turned to face her.

"Yuna!" Tidus yelled, pointing out the obvious.

"But why...?" She asked.

"We saw Jyscal's sphere!" I answered.

"YOU WENT IN MY STUFF!?!?!?!" She fumed.

Yuna immediately began to hurl a cinderblock at me.

"Ah! It wasn't me, Yuna! It was- GYAHHH!!" I began to explain before I developed a concussion and fainted.

"You killed him" Auron continued to say.

"What of it? Huh! You wanna piece a' me old man!?" Seymour cleared his throats,"Lady Yuna, certainly you knew of these things, did you not?"

Yuna made some noises. She didn't know what to say, I guess.

"Well then, why have you come here?" Seymour continued.

"I came... I came to stop you!" Yuna shouted as she joined us.

"I see. You came to punish me, then" Seymour said with a smirk.

Even though I was knocked out and had a severe concussion, I started laughing. 'Hehehe, I want to be punished! No, punish me!' that ever present line from Myuki-chan in Wonderland played in my head.

Seymour turned around, faced us and walked forward, extending his hand creepy boney Guado hand. Yuna backed away, stepping on my arm.

"What a pity"

All of them surrounded Yuna, and Shea dragged my by the arm in front of her.

"Ah, of course. 'Protect the summoner even at the cost of one's life'. The Code of the Guardian. How admirable."

His two scrawny muscle guards stepped forward.

"Well, if you're offering your lives, I will have to take them"

"Um, scary blue man? I'd just like to point out at this time I'm not offering my life. You're more than welcome to take Pretz here's life. Yuna's just gonna kill her anyways" Shea said seriously, holding me up by my wrist.

It was then I heard Shea's voice in the darkness of it all. I came out of that half coma for one reason, and one reason only: to kill Shea. I started strangling her like her had done to me.

"You meanie! You really ARE on the dark side of the force! I have no idea why Jamie likes you!" I started.

"Maester Seymour. I trust all my guardians with my life... Well, except for Pretz… But they are also my friends. I will not stand by and watch them be hurt. I will fight you, too!" Yuna so rudely interrupted me.

"Maester Seymour!" Wakka pleaded.

"Wakka, it's a little late to be begging at this point" I laughed.

"So be it" Seymour said calmly.

Well, we quickly took out his muscle men and beat him up.

"Feel my pain. Come, Anima!" He shouted.

I swiftly through a bottle of Pepto Bismal at him. Hey, Anima still sounds like enema to me. Maybe he's just having issues taking a dump and that's why he's so evil. I still think Anima sounds like enema. He summoned Anima, the massively-powerful Aeon who killed all the fiends at the blitzball tournament in Luca. After a while we killed giant turd, and were back to fighting girly boy.

"That power that defeated Anima... It will be mine!" He barked.

He got this extremely demonic look on his face, but sadly for him, I have to attention span of a rodent. While the morons were trying to fight him, I snuck behind him with a pair of hedge clippers. Very carefully and intricately I CHOPPED OFF THE ENTIRETY OF HIS HAIR! BWHAHAHAHAHA! He fell to his knees, hissing and screeching like Oogie Boogie.

"EEYYYYAAHHH!!!! MAH HAIR! MAH HAIR! MAH HAIR!"

After a while he finally stopped his infernal screeching.

"Yuna...you would pity me now?"

But even Yuna was not listening. He were talking and completely ignoring him like adults normally do to at Christmas parties. In the mean time he was slowly crawling towards the door. Not the main door, mind you, but a puny side door with a knob. Hehe, knob! He got all the way to the door and the door flung open. It hit Seymour ad he flew up into the air, landing where he once was. The word Overkill appeared over his body. Just as our luck would have it, Tromell, Seymour's official spokesperson, walked in.

"Lord Seymour! What happened here?" He yelled at us.

Tromell and his two female assistants run to Seymour's body. The females started being overly lugubrious... even crazily if you ask me. Like those vampires from Van Helsing. Mmm, Helsing...

"What...what have I done?" Wakka muttered to himself.

"YOU didn't do SHIT, hair gel boy! It was all me!" I yelled, taking recognition for my one and only victory.

"Wait a minute! It's not our fault at all! Seymour struck first! He's the bad guy!" Tidus defended us so stupidly.

"Tidus, have you ever heard of the term 'Don't confess to something they don't know bout yet'?" I whispered in his ear.

"You did this?" Tromell guessed.

"No, NO! It wasn't us. It was... THAT GUY!" Shea screamed pointing at some random guado.

"But he has 'Pretz and Shea were here' written on his face. Your names are so, are they not?" Tromell glared at us.

"Um... no?" I explained.

"Oh... alright then"

The two assistants carried Seymour's body out of the room. Tromell followed them. Yuna dropped to her knees. I think she was having one of those way-too-freakishly-innocent-to-be-Yuna moments."We're finished" Wakka yelled.

"Now hold on just a minute! Seymour's the bad guy, right? We'll just explain to everyone what happened!" Tidus tried to convince himself.

We returned through the ice tunnel we came through before. Alas, the bottom of the tunnel vanished beneath our feet and we all fell to our dooms.

"Oh, come on! Gimme a break! How are we supposed to get back up there?" I yelled.

"Ooh, I know. What if we all stood on each other's shoulders?" Rikku suggested.

"Rikku..." Lulu stared.

"Yeah, I know. It was a pretty dumb idea"

"No, that's actually a pretty good idea"

"REALLY?" She said all high pitched and sparkly eyed.

So we all stacked up as follows. Kimahri was on the bottom for obvious reason; Lulu was next, because she didn't trust Wakka under her. Wakka was next up and then Auron. Next came Tidus with a stupid drooling grin on his face because Yuna was next up. Then Rikku, Shea and myself on top. The pillar of people wobbled back and worth until I finally grabbed the very edge of the platform, with my arms stretched up as far as I could. For a moment everyone was silent.

"So... now what?" Wakka asked.

There was a long silence.

"Ummmm...... Now, Pretz!" Rikku yelled.

"Rightoh!" I replied.

I quickly flipped up onto the ledge, and pulled up Shea and Rikku. The rest of the blob fell over, and Tidus slid into a stalagmite... or is it stalactite? I always get those two mixed up. Gah! We casually walked away and out the door, but found a series of guards, and Tromell, blocking off the temple exit. Damnit! They always have to do things the hard way!

"Look, I'm sorry about your precious mascara boy dying, but can't you let us pass?" I begged.

"What? Oh, that. We're not mad about that at all. We can always clone him from his 10 million fingernail clippings lying around. We can sell that high definition plasma screen TV over there to fund it-" Tromell began to say.

Reason gave way to ADHD and I was soon chucking pebbles and other random things at a target I had drawn on the TV's screen.

"No! Please refrain from doing that!" Tromell yelled, and sounded way too much like that Harriman dude from Fosters.

It was much too late. The TV exploded in a fiery rage. It was then I saw Tromell's demeanor change from prestigious dude to Gollum. Yuna and the flock of chickens that follow her came out, saw the trouble, grabbed us by our necks and dragged us out of the temple in a sprint. They ran out of the temple, and kept on running, because Guado guards were running after them too. We eventually reached Lake Macalania. Merf. We had to fight this giant monkey/Bigfoot thing. Before it died, it pounded into the icy lake, causing it to crack - and break. Everybody fell through the cracks.

'Praise be to Yevon' That's what I would have said, if I was a follower of Yevon.We were all there, and in one piece. Even if I had a headache from wondering what was in store for us next.

When I came to I was wedged beneath a large pile of people. The bishi Tidus, the tubby Wakka, and the kitty man Kimahri. But where was Auron? Sitting on a rock right next to the pile, putting a cork in his jug.

"Um, a little help?" I asked coldly.

"No, you must figure this out on your own. Besides, it's more fun this way" He replied.

So after what seemed like an hour of trying, I finally squeezed our from under them. Shea, Lulu, and Rikku waddled up and the boys came to. We seemed to be amidst the ruins of an ancient city. The water only goes up to our ankles even though we were under the friggin lake. Ah! It's the city of the mole people! There were a lot of pyreflies. Everyone was there and in one piece, except for Yuna who's lying down. Rikku ran over to me.

"I'm sure Yunie's okay. She's breathing fine and all- Shea! Stop that! She doesn't have a nosebleed!"

Shea was holding the middle part of Yuna's nose like the camp counselors do to little kids. Stopping nosebleeds seems to be the only thing drama counselors are good for besides making you act like you cut your own foot off with an axe.

"How are Lulu and Wakka?" Rikku continued.

"Well, Wakka's in shock, and Lulu, well, she's just the same as always"

"She's so together. All grown up, I guess"

"I guess"

"Well, just give me five or six more years" Rikku grinned.

I started backing away and backed into Kimahri.

"So, Kimahri, how do we get out of here?"

Rikku jumped at me like my friend Spiff sometimes did.

"Hey, don't change the subject!"

"We climb" Kimahri said calmly.

CLIMBING?! He had never seen me on a high ropes course. I dominate!

"Kimahri, too!" Rikku squealed.

"Only those who try will become" Kimahri laughed at Rikku.

"Huh?"

"I think he means you have to work hard if you want to be like Lulu...... and have plastic surgery" I replied.

"Oh! I will! E-Except that last part... I won't do that"

"Kimahri think Rikku should stay Rikku"

"Hey! Are you saying I'll never be like Lulu? Kimahri!"

I started laughing but then Yevon boy ran up and spoiled my fun.

"How can you laugh at a time like this!?"

Then my fun surpassed spoiled. It decomposed in a putrid decay of moldy ooze that festered into a bitter disillusion venomously lethal contaminated blob of polluted deterioration of........................... BUNNIES: Yuna awoke.

"Yuna!" Everyone seemed to say at once.

After a long while of everyone swooning over Yuna, she finally spoke up.

"I wanted to confront Maester Seymour about his father, Lord Jyscal. I wanted to convince him to turn himself in to Yevon's judgment"

"Yuna, did you learn nothing from the Crucible?! Guilty people don't confess! They blame other! Ahh! Don't make me read the line again, Ms. Bennett!!!" I jumped up.

Everyone was silent for a long while. We all had spread out and were just doing our own things. Lulu and Wakka were talking, Kimahri was with Auron, Yuna and Tidus were Yevon knows where but I couldn't imagine them doing anything worse than Hannah and Kyle. I was sitting on a rock with a guitar, trying to come up with something and Rikku was lying around a few feet away. Something finally hit me and it wasn't Yuna. I started playing this tune that sounded like 'Broken'. Rikku sat up and watched me play for a brief moment. Then something else hit me.

"Hey, bitches!" Shea screamed after she had jumped on my back.

Rikku suddenly realized what she was planning and asked before Shea could even say it.

"Let's go exploring! C'mon, Pretz!" Rikku yipped.

"Hmm, let me check me schedule. Hmm, 5:00- Think about how much I hate Yuna... 6:00- Wrestle with my self loathing... 6:30- Solve world hunger. Tell no one. 7:00- Dinner with myself. I can't cancel that again! 8-9:30- Stare into the emptiness. I'm fully booked. Can't" I sneered.

They started to do that famous puppy dog face on me. That's not fair! Pitting my brethren against me is a horrible thing to do!

"Well, I could drop solving world hunger and just go for take out. I'll see you later"

The time went by and sure enough they came by the tent and err... helped me out. We wandered around giant boulders, large chunks of ice, and many other strange things. We stopped to have some food when we all froze. Something was following us. Whipping out a chicken wing, a bottle of mustard, a plastic spork we all stood back to back. Wow, Charlie's Angels rip off. What leaped out of the rubble at us reminded me of those Dracula's minions from Van Helsing that seem like they'd be the mole people. They dragged up to their city, full of other mole people. Their king or whatever he was approached us.

"You have intruded on our borders! Now you must never be allowed to leave with our secret!" He barked.

"Um, what secret?" I asked seriously.

"Don't play koi! We have been harboring machina for centuries! Fugitives, Al Bhed, all who defy Yevon, your kind, come down here to be free from persecution"

"Um, if all who defy Yevon know about this, that must mean the Yevonites know where this place is too" Shea tried to point out.

"Lies! You speak craziness!" He screamed.

"Listen, Mr. Mole people king sir. We won't tell anyone about this place. We're all Al Bhed too" Rikku reasoned with him.

The possibly high king looked us all in the eye, and to our worst fears, he stopped at Shea.

"Wait!!! This one's not Al Bhed! She stays! You two girls can go. I must, erm, deal with this one"

We debated on and on to save Shea's probably-not-worth-it ass from the acid addicted king. Eventually we won and as we were walking out I felt I should reassure him of our promise.

"The summoner is about a mile east of here. And don't worry, your secret's safe with us-"

A large beast was somehow swimming in the nonexistent water, ramming what looked like a control tower. As the tower fell over and Sin began to destroy the city I punched Shea.

"Damnit. I told you if we'd just waited 15 minutes you wouldn't need saving. Stupid D.I.D"

Well we couldn't really stay there so we ran back to camp and acted as if noting had happened. Auron was speaking to the remaining losers.

"Our immediate concern is Yuna's pilgrimage. Are you willing to go on?"

"Yes. But then, do you think Yevon will allow it?" Yuna asked.

"The fayth are the ones that give power to the summoners. Not the temples or the teachings. If the temples try to stop us... then we will defy Yevon if we must" Auron um... well that's not very reassuring so never mind.

"Whoa!" Tidus jumped back.

"I can't believe you said that!", Rikku yipped running up to him, trying to put him in a headlock, but just reaching up, she stuck a badge on him, "You're now an honorary Al Bhed. Congratulations"

"That pin went inside me..." Auron said in his always monotone voice.

"Sir Auron!?" Lulu gasped.

"Count me out!" Wakka began ranting. We all know what that means.

"We have to atone, to make up for the sins we have committed"

"What sins? You didn't do shit, Yevon boy"

"Of course..."

"Trying to rationalize yourself, eh? Well, it's too late for that you hardened criminal you!"

"It's not like I ever liked Maester Seymour, ya?"

"Congratulations, Wakka. The first step is admitting"

"No way I'll ever forgive him for killing Lord Jyscal"

"Riiight. That matters because?"

"And for trying to do us all in too, you know?"

"He's had a break through! He's realized the fault of a maester!"

"But still, the bunch of us going against Yevon?"

"Not that hard, Tubby"

"No way!" He whined.

"Why? Me, Rikku and Shea do it all the time" I ended.

"But still, we have transgressed and must face our punishment" Lulu added randomly.

"We must go to Bevelle. We must speak with Maester Mika and explain what has happened. There is no other way, I think. Sir Auron...?"

"So it is decided"

"Will you come with us?"

"I am the troublemaker, after all"

"No, I'M the troublemaker in this party. You are just the old man nobody likes" I corrected him to myself.

"Yeah, that's right! You can always count on Auron to complicate things!" Tidus must have heard me.

Sweet! An anti-Auron cult!

"Yeah! Kimahri roars, and Auron runs off, and..." Rikku started.

"I never asked you to follow me" Auron defended himself.

"Hey, but that's what friends are for. Right?" Tidus laughed.

"Yep!"

I had NO IDEA what they were talking about.

"Thank you" Yuna said to Tidus.

Auron walked away. See! He's running off! Rikku bounced around in the back ground.

"Man... How can you all act like nothing's wrong? Must got nerves of steel or something" Wakka whined again.

"You're too edgy. Listen to the hymn and calm down, psycho" Lulu ordered.

"Is that coming from the temple?" I asked.

"Yes, it is Yevon's gift. It soothes the hearts of the faithful" Yuna explained.

"Faithful, eh? So that's why I find it annoyingly stuck in my head"

Unfortunately Shea came back from whatever she was doing. Damn!- Err I mean hooray!

"Tifa used to sing this song..."

It baffled me how the Hell she even knew Tifa unless she'd tracked down Jamie somehow and gone to his house.

"Yeah, over and over. But not this good, that's for sure"

"Another trait you share"

"What, you were listening?"

I thought about back at Camp Ocoee (Mmm, flashback...) when I was sitting on the canoe dock, humming the Fayth Hymn. How did I even know it? Shea was standing behind me, but I didn't know it.

"Eesh.. Can't I get a little privacy?" I laughed.

"Your singing reminded me of Lassiter"

"Oh, right. You're not from Chattahoochee, are you? You schoolsick? And how the Heck does that remind you of Lassiter?"

"Hell no"

"Um, you still haven't answered my question"

(Mmm, end flashback)

"Say, how'd you get to Spira anyway?"

"I don't really know, you?"

"That proves it" I thought,"Something we don't remember was the link between our world and Spira"

"Um, Pretz? Hello? You alive? Ocoee there! Hellllooooo" Shea waved her hand in front of me.

All this was interrupted by Lulu freaking out."The singing stopped"

The ground started shaking violently.

"Thanks a lot, Lulu! They never would have known if you hadn't pointed it out!"

I yelled.

"There's something here!" Wakka looked around.

"The ground!" Auron barked.

"Thank you Captain Obvious, and his young ward, Yevon boy!" I said while falling over.

Sin was sitting motionless in the water. No idea how that worked seeings as we were under the ice where the water was.

"The toxin! Watch out!" Lulu ordered.

Everything suddenly went white. I couldn't see but I could hear Tidus monologing.

"The song... You were listening, too! What is it this time? Zanarkand...
You homesick, too?"

"Shut up, Tidus"

"That's not your world anymore. You're Sin now. Hey, I'm older now, you know? I know. You want this to end. I'll find a way. Promise"

"Urge to destroy Spira rising…..."

Review damn you! Or I'll move from my computer and come make you. You don't want that! Ah! This is so friggin annoying! My dad won't let me get online till 9 pm now! You know what time they make me go to bed!? 9:30! I can't take much more of this. BUT, I'm going to stop whining now. PURPLE! XD Speaking of purple, Olivia will be coming back later on, and two others (guy and a girl). Whether those two will follow us, I don't know yet. I need an embarrassing way for them to come into the story though, except Olivia who I already have devious plans for. My friends aren't much help. If it's to pervy for a review, email it to me. Moo! Ok, I WAS planning to update before HALLOWEEN! Lol, but then I don't remember what happened but it was a good reason. Then I was grounded until I could clean my room. That took a while. Heh, that top note was made WAY before Halloween. I now have a dilemma as I'm working on 3 stories at once. One's a nightcrawler manga, one's this one and the other is I'm helping Jamie make his comic. BUT I figure I'll just work on only doing the manga at school when I can't type this. I am being dragged to Orlando this thanksgiving. My dad said if you take a long vacation in the car with your family it bonds you. There is a huge difference between being bonded with and being stuck with! I'm leaving tomorrow (Um, the 20th if I don't get this posted before that) and I'm forced to be with them a week. I wanna stay HERE! GAH! But every time we take a trip something so insanely stupid happens it's funny. (And whaddya know, I DIDN'T get it posted before I left)
