A/N Spoiler warning. :Holds up big flashing neon sign: If you haven't gotten past Luca do so then come back.

Disclaimer: It occurred to me that I forgot this in the last chapter. Basically, if you recognize it, I don't own it. Now on with chapter two.

I woke up later outside of Luca. Knowing Jecht, he dropped me off here to meet up with his son. But that was the least of my worries. I still had to find Lord Braska's daughter. I wondered what she might have looked like by now. After all, I had not seen her in ten years.

I began my trek into the city. The stadium would be the first place to look. It was the start of a new season so they would have stopped to see a game. I had heard that two of her guardians were blitz ball players. Knowing that fact, I figured that one of the was Jecht's son.

Once in the city I walked with purpose. My head high, and katana on my shoulder. I was not in the mood to talk to anyone. Once they saw my katana, they wisely left me alone. I made it to the sphere pool just as the last game ended. Not that I cared to watch, I never did like the game.

However, when I entered the stands, I could hear screaming. Someone ran past me yelling something about fiends. Great, just what I needed now. I was at the top of the stairs when one of the fiends saw me. A vouivre, humph. Only a slight delay. I took care of him when I heard Tidus shouting for me. Finding him was easier then I thought.

The rest of the fiends were taken care of by an aeon I had never seen before. It reminded me of a plantlike fish. Behind it stood Seymour. Just the look on his face made me suspect if he had something to do with the fiends. I said nothing then, but knew that sometime in the future it would be known.

After the excitement wore down, Tidus and I talked at the pier. More like I talked and he shouted. The boy always was so emotional. I told him about sin and his father. He took it better then I imagined he would.

"I'm going to offer my services to Lady Yuna. Come if you want." I left him standing there without waiting for a response. He shouted something to me before I heard his footsteps following. I found her at the platform that led to the Mi'ihen Highroad. They looked surprised to see me, and more so with Jecht's son behind me.

Lady Yuna was the first to speak. "Sir Auron."

"Lady Yuna, I would like to offer my services to you as a guardian. I promised your father that I would look after you." I told her.

"My, my father? He asked you to come?"

"You object?"

"No, no. I want you to come. I was just surprised that's all." She gave a low bow.

I reached behind me and pulled Tidus forward. "He comes too. I promised this one to Jecht." He stumbled a little before regaining his footing. I walked over to the dark haired woman as Yuna called Tidus over to show him something. Apparently she had learned to whistle. The rest of us watched as they proceeded to make fools of themselves. They were… laughing? I failed to see what was so funny. But this was Lady Yuna's journey. When they were done we moved on. And about time too. We had wasted enough time.

We stopped several times to talk to people. I sighed but allowed her to talk. After all, it did make them happy. We were almost halfway across the highroad when we met up with two people from Besaid. They were crusaders getting ready for some big mission. I knew it would fail, but they were so determined to do it, that we no choice but to let them proceed.

Shortly after that we saw three chocobos headed our way. Captain Lucile warned us of a chocobo fiend that had made an appearance lately.

"We should go get it!" I heard Tidus exclaim.

"And why should we do that?" I asked roughly. I was hoping he would have a good reason for this one.

"It's the right thing to do!"

He was so much like his father it was scary. "Jecht said the same thing." I chuckled softly. He wined a little and kicked a stone that happened to be in the wrong place. He would accept the similarities in time.

It was getting late now and I could see the inn just ahead. It was owned by Rin. The Al Bhed that had helped me so long ago. The red haired blitzer, Wakka, was the only one to protest about staying there. He was a diehard Yevonite. Just wait until he saw what would happen at the end of the journey.

"Fine then, don't stay. If you don't want to sleep inside on a soft bed, you can sleep with the chocobos." I called over my shoulder before entering. I heard him growl before the door shut behind me.

Once we were settled in, Yuna went out to sit and stare out at the sunset. Tidus was not far behind. I could see how much he was starting to care for her already. This was good. If he could give her a reason to live, then we might be able to find another was to banish Sin from Spira. I waited a couple minutes to let them talk before going out to get them. That was when I heard them talking about Zanarkand.

Tidus was confused. He questioned the young summoner but it was me who answered for her. "She means the remains of a city destroyed a thousand years ago. Now, Lady Yuna. It is getting late. Come in and rest."

The next morning we gathered our things to get ready for the next part of the journey. There was still no sign of the chocobo eater that we were warned of. We were in the lobby when we heard the scream. So much for not seeing him. We ran out ready for battle. It held a chocobo in its claws, but dropped it when it saw us.

"Let's do it!" Shouted Tidus as he ran in to do battle. Lulu chuckled as she ran and stood next to him. Yuna tried to run in too, but I held her back. Wakka instead took the last place and blinded the fiend.

When the three of the managed to knock it onto its back, then I sent her in to replace Wakka. She summoned Ifrit and used his overdrive to eradicate the fiend. She smiled and turned to Tidus after dismissing the aeon.

"I did it, I really did it." He gave her a hug to congratulate her.

"Okay, enough. We must keep moving." I said breaking them up. If we wanted to reach the temple in Djose by nightfall, we had to get moving.

Okay, it was pointed out to me how boring it gets to read what you can play (Thank you jamesexclamationpoint) But I can assure you that I will try my hardest not to do that with this story. Only when I feel I cannot give the character or scene justice will you find me useing the script from the game. Anyway, now that you have read my insane author's note, review the story and let me know if this is really worth continuing.
