Chapter 5
S.S. Winno
Tidus wandered around the ships' deck looking for anyone to talk to. Lulu and Wakka were nowhere to be found, Morgan was sitting at the bottom of a flight of steps, fiddling with the severed Lord Ochu's vine. He found a blitzball on the deck and remembered his father's taunting. Tidus squeezed the ball between his palms before dropping it and performing is father's trademark shot perfectly.
"Showed you old man," he whispered to himself.
Then Tidus saw Liz and Yuna talking to the Luca Goers as he waltzed over to them.
"We're gonna win the Cup again," the captain, Bickson, stated proudly.
"Not with me here!" Tidus announced, entering the conversation.
"One person can't change the losing streak of the worst team of all time. What's your goal? Still to do your best?" Graav, another member, taunted.
"No, our goal is victory!" Tidus cheered.
"Fat chance," Abus said.
"But he can. He use to be the star player of the Zanarkand Abes," Yuna said.
"Ha! Like there would be a blitzball team at that pile of rubble!" Bickson stated.
"But it's true!" Yuna cried.
Before anyone could say anything the crack of a whip was heard and a whoop of delight followed.
Liz shrieked gleefully. "Morgan has a whip!" she cried as she jumped up and down, clapping her hands.
Tidus groaned audibly as he saw the whip in Morgan's hand, which it seemed was made of the fiend's severed arm.
"I made it all by myself, and I think it has poison touch," Morgan told Liz, "I just need a guinea pig to know for sure."
Tidus saw the look on Morgan's face and hid behind Yuna.
Bickson saw his movement and laughed out loud. "Will you look at that boys? The star player of the Zanarkand Abes is afraid of a little girl with a piece of rope," he said mockingly.
The blitzball players laughed at the mocking. Morgan looked darkly at the captain before lifting the whip's handle about her head and bringing it down giving her wrist a quick flick making the whip crack before hitting it's target in the middle of his chest. Bickson clutched his chest and staggered backwards.
Morgan rolled up the whip and tossed it at Liz. She winked and said, "it's all in the wrist."
