I can't believe he did it again… I have sisters…

"so Kiki, what are you going to do?" asked Rikku. Yuna, Rikku, Paine, Koaso and Kiki were all sitting in the cabin.

Kiki shook her head.

"We can go you know…"

"And stop him," said Paine. "We don't have to let it happen."

"It already has. I remember something… in the lab. They're already there, I was just the first one. Besides… I'm afraid to go. There is nothing we can do now."

"Kiki, don't say that!" Koaso told her.

"It's true! What am I able to do now? Nothing. One day he'll see that they failed too, and he will let them free. When that happens, we will find them. We'll be ready to help them."

Yuna nodded. It sounded like a good plan to her, and that's what Kiki wanted. So they would follow that plan. But… "But Kiki, how do you know that they are going to fail?"

Kiki smiled for the first time in a while. "Because Yuna, they may have been fused with machina, but they are still human. They still have a human heart that won't give in to the machina- no matter what."

"Well…" said Rikku, in a happier mood after she saw Kiki smile. "I think we should all get some rest. We have another mission tomorrow, so we'll need the sleep!"

With that she plunked on to her bed and started 'snoring'. Everyone laughed, then got ready for bed.

Kiki woke up with a start. She had been dreaming about the lab… she shook the thoughts out of her head. She sat up and looked around to see that everybody was already up and gone. She stood and stretched, her wings spreading out from either side. Wonder how late it is… we were up pretty late last night. I feel much better now though…

She walked to the elevator and took it to the bridge. Everyone was there, except for Yuna.

"Where's Yuna?" Kiki asked.

"Dra Talg!" Brother yelled from the front of the ship. "The deck!"

"Dryhg oui!" Kiki replied as she walked back to the elevator. She waved and smiled at everyone in the room before turning around. "Thank you!"

The elevator stopped at the deck and the door slid open. Kiki slowly walked up the stairs and saw Yuna at the front of the ship near the 'hood ornament' of a seagull. She walked overt next to her.

"Hey!" Kiki said, raising her voice a little so that Yuna could hear her over the breeze.

Yuna turned abruptly, then smiled. "Oh hey, Kiki! I didn't hear you coming!"

"What are you doing out here?"

"I was thinking…"

"Oh, really about what?"

She smiled. "I was wondering what it would be like to fly! I guess this is the closest I'm ever going to get…"

She was suddenly cut off by being swooped up into the air by Kiki. She needed to stretch her wings anyway. "Hold on tight!" she cried flying into the air.
