Okay, because I know that there is going to be somebody who is going to spend the a few hours trying to figure out some complicated math problem just so they can rub it in my face, I have to say this. I have no idea how much time you have to free fall from an airplane, I really just guessed. So don't even think about looking it up. Okay, that's off my chest. Also, please review, even if you have already reviewed before, review again so I know you still read this.

Tidus woke up an hour or so later, lying on the ground on his back. He heard a strange beeping noise coming from the 2 way radio on the ground next to him. Since when do I have a 2 way? he thought. He was in an incredible amount of pain, and couldn,t remember why. For that matter, he didn't know where he even was. The 2 way next to him continued to beep, and he reached for it, but when he tried, even more pain came to him, and he realized his arm was broken. Finally, with much grunting, he managed to reach the device and he picked it up.

"Hello," he said into it... nothing. "Hello?" he said again, but still nothing. After his 3rd try, a voice came over. "Tidus?" it said, in a soft voice, probably a girl. He responded, "Yeah, I'm hear, who is this?" "It's me you blundering idiot!! Why haven't you answered!?" the voice shouted back. "I'm sorry, I don't recognize your voice," said Tidus, very confused. "Yuna! I am Yuna, now where are you!"

Tidus thought for a moment, then his memories came flooding back. He wasn't in Zanarkand anymore, he was in Spira, Yuna was his wife,and they had defeated Sin together. "Whoa, Yuna! Geez that was weird!" he said.

"What was weird?" she asked

"I couldn't remember anything for a moment, I thought I was still in Zanarkand. Where am I though, and where are you?"

"I'm on the airship, you fell off, remember?"

"No, I don't. Actually I really don't remember anything that has happened after Auron came back... he did come back didn't he?"

"Yes he came back, and what do you mean you don't remember? What happened right before you answered the radio?"

"I just woke up," said Tidus, feeling his forehead. He brought his fingers back and saw sticky blood on his glove. He took off his glove and felt hair matted down by blood, right over a large gash in his forehead.

"I think I hit my head or something. Anyway, if you're not here, then I'm not going anywhere." "Why not?" she asked.

"Because I think both my legs are broken, along with my arms, there is a gash in my head, my left thumb and middle finger are both dislocated, my left ankle feels sprained, both knees are aching, probably broken, and I believe my left elbow is shattered. Then there is the thousand aches, pains, scratches, bruises, cuts, and Yevon knows what else."

"You can't move!" Yuna shouted, "You have to move! You have to get out of there right now your near Guadosalem, remember the fiend invasion? You aren't too far from the source of the fiends!"

"Wait a minute," Tidus demanded, "I fell from an airship, was nearly killed by something I don't even remember, and now I'm stuck in the middle of some forest infested with fiends, and can't move?! Get me outta here!" "We can't" said Yuna quietly.

"Whadda you mean we can't!!" Tidus shouted. Yuna was about to say something, but she remembered O'aka, "Hey, whatever happened to O'aka? Isn't he near you? O'aka, who is he, thought Tidus, ohhhh the cheap greedy bastard, he came with me?

"No," Tidus answered, "he isn't here... hold on, something is coming." He lay perfectly still, and listened as a fang came sniffing through the grass. It was headed right for him. He prepared for more pain as the fiend's head came into view. With a huge yell of agony he reached up with his broken arms and quickly snapped the fiend's neck.

"Tidus!" Yuna shouted through the radio. Tidus grunted as he lay back down and grabbed the radio. "That one really hurt, I had to break it's neck." They were both silent for a moment. Yuna finally broke the silence. "I guess you should just lay there until O'aka finds you. Try yelling for him." Tidus did, and after a few seconds, here heard something else coming. "Yuna, something else is coming, I'll get back to you," and he turned off the radio.

The sound was moving in his direction, and this time, whatever was coming sounded much heavier than a fang. He lay there, wondering if he was going to be able to kill it. It grew closer toward him, each step making him wish it would just jump over to him, so he could get it over with. When the creature finally got into view, Tidus found that it was not a monster, but a woman.

She was tall, and looked very strong. She was dressed in shorts and a tank top with brunette hair in a short ponytail.

"Who were you talkin to?" she asked in a voice that sounded like the same accent as Wakka's, but with a slight drawl to it.

Before Tidus could answer, she spotted the radio lying next to him, and picked it up. "Hello," she said into it. Yuna picked up, "Hi, who are you?"

"I am the girl who happened to have stumbled across this wreck of a person lying before me," said the women, "Do you know him?"

"Yes, I know him," said Yuna, trying to hide her relief, "Is he okay?"

"If by okay, you mean alive, then yes, just barely. You need him to be delivered somewhere?"

"Yes, if you would please. I need you to take him to Mushroom Rock Road as fast as you can." said Yuna, this time not being able to hide her relief.

"Mushroom Rock?" That's pretty far away, but I'm sure you can repay me."

"Whatever you want," Yuna said excitedly, "just hurry up, we'll work something out when we meet. Thanks a lot, and good luck." The radio died.

"So," said Tidus, "You got any potions on hand?"

"One, but we should probably save that for later. In case I need it. Do you have any idea on how I'm going to move you, because you don't look in any condition to walk." "I was kinda hoping you, would have an idea," Tidus said, trying to think of something. "Hey, there should be another guy somewhere around here, he has a whole bunch of potions and stuff. If you could find him, I can walk."

Just as he finished his sentence, something crashed off in the distance, and something very big was making a lot of noise. The woman's face turned from calm, to almost shocked when she heard the noise.

"Friends of yours?" Tidus asked sarcasticly. "I wished it was," said the woman, looking very nervous, "that must be the behemoth that has been chasing me for the past few days. I thought I had lost it, but I guess not. We've got to go right now." She looked at him, and shook her head. "I'm gonna have to carry you, so this might hurt a little."

A little had been a serious understatement. She yanked him up by the arm, and threw him over her shoulder. The pain that was once very intense was now unbearable. His arm seemed to have snapped off the rest of his body, and felt like it was only hanging on by a thread. He let out a small yelp and cringed in pain as he was lifted from the ground. He strained his body, waiting for the pain to subside, but it wouldn't. With each step it hurt more and more, until finally, he couldn't take it anymore. He waited until she ran near a tree. Then swung back his head, and head butted the solid wood has hard as possible. It was back to happy-happy dream world once again.

Back on the airship, Yuna was in rage. It was one of those, I don't know where my husband is, but I know he's with some other woman, kind of rages. Obviously there was nothing going on, but that didn't change Yuna's opinion. Her sense of gratitude to the woman who found him, was now totally decimated.

When he falls down and breaks himself, she thought bitterly, instead of me, it's this super woman who comes to the rescue. What does she think she's doing, acting as if I should repay her. She should be thanking me for letting her touch him. Him... what was he thinking! Yuna's thoughts then turned to words as she said out loud, "Ahhh Tidus you idiot!"

Everybody turned to look at her. Wakka spoke up, "What was that all about?" "What do you think it was about," She half yelled. "Whoa, calm down ya? It wasn't his fault that things like this happen." Now Lulu joined in, "Yuna, there is no sense in stressing yourself." "Hey back off Lu, I'm on this," said Wakka. "Oh, so your on this are you Wakka, you haven't helped at all you idiot." "You're both idiots, like my moron husband."

"Hey, I didn't see you do anything to help miss hypocrite." "He wouldn't have fallen if it weren't for you and your stupid ball"

Meanwhile, Auron, Rikku, Kimahri, and Paine watched from the sidelines as they continued to bicker. "This is one of the reasons I never thought of marrying." Auron said to Paine. "No kidding," she agreed, "though I bet a lot of girls tried to get to you." Auron chuckled, "Who would ever want to marry me."

"Don't know, Paine said, "But I do know you have quite a name for yourself, and all my life I would have done anything to meet you. Funny though, I thought the chance had died a long time ago, when you disappeared.

"What did people say about my passing?" Auron asked, for once in his life, curious about it.

"We didn't know what to think. Until I met Yuna I didn't even know you had came back from your first pilgrimage. I had heard rumors of course, but I figured that's all they were."

Auron grunted, then got up to check their location.

I'm looking for suggestions for O'aka's gruesome death. I have definitely decided to kill him off after beginning replay Final Fantasy X. Therefore any and all ideas are welcomed. Also I found after reading my own chapter that there are some things in a story that are totaly different from a reader's point of view, than a writers.(duh) Any way my point is, in case I didn't make it obvious enough, the "chemistry" in the chapter title is between Auron and Paine. (It's very hard to write anything romantic about those two people with out completely going out of their character, and I apologize)

Keep reviewing!
