Chapter 6
Zanarkand was in trouble and Yuna knew this. Her followers knew this as well, Skyan also knew this. They reached Zanakand, and got on to land. Yuna and her followers walked a half of a mile towards the temple which moaned and cried out in pain.Yuna looked at the unholy temple and started to cry. Rikku and Tidus rushed over to Yuna to console her as Yuna fell to her knees to weep. Skyan looked at Rikku and then Wakka, Wakka pulled him to the side to explain why Yuna was broken up.
"Listen Brudda...Yuna has a history here Ya, and..." Wakka said before Skyan walked forward towards to Yuna to try his "Consoling" part.
He approached Yuna with a little pause in his step. How could he feel bad for Yuna when he barely knew her? Rikku looked at Skyan as he approached and looked away from him,then she said.
"If you hurt her more...I will hurt you" Rikku said.
Skyan shook his head even though Rikku wasn't looking at him, in a quiet almost whispering voice he announced "I won't"
He kneeled next to Yuna who was holding on to Tidus the whole time. He was trying to finds the words to say...the right words...Yuna turned to him still crying.
"Yuna...is there anything we can do...not all hope is lost" He murmured.
She looked back at Tidus "Sey-Seymour...He's Evil..."Then buried her head back into Tidus's Chest.
Tidus held Yuna close and whispered "I know...thats why he must be stopped"
Skyan looked back at Rikku then at Wakka. Wakka was tapping his feet in a impatient gesture. Skyan licked his lips and tried again.
"Yuna...who ever this Seymour guy is or what ever purpose he has for doing this...he's only one person...I'm with you..Wakka's with you...She's with you..." He said before getting interrupted by Rikku saying her name back at him, still without a glance.
"...Rikku's with you...We are all with you...I can feel your pain...I lost things that meant a lot to me and things I had a long history with...I'm not really good with words but what I'm trying to say is that I'm with you,fighting with you,I'll be next to you until this over" He said with a few pauses.
Yuna unburied her face in Tidus's chest to look at Skyan she pierces her eyes into him
"Do you mean it?...how can I know that your telling the truth?" Yuna said with a few sniffles present.
"Because...if I didn't mean it...I. would lie..I would have guilt shadow over me...I don't want that" he said.
Yuna looks at Skyan and she hugged him and looks up in his eyes. Skyan smiled and embraced her as well. For that few minutes nobody said nothing except for the temple which howled in pain. Rikku looked over to Skyan,Skyan looked at Rikku and saw a smile emerge from her mouth. Skyan smirked a bit but not a full smile.
Closing the last few quiet minutes...Skyan thought he heard Yuna said "Thank you."

Seymour had visions of what his new world would look like. After the purpose of Yuna was fulfilled in his vision he would dispose of her. Seymour was still present in the farplane and the visions continued. The guard was passed out four feet from the entrance.Then the vision ended abruptly and he knew that Yuna had reached his first checkpoint.
"She had reached the first point...but unfortunately she's too late" Seymour laughed.
The voice that told him that he needed Yuna to help him came back.
"Get her to come here NOW! Your followers are gnashing teeth to be released" The voice echoed in his head.
Seymour winced at the intensity of the voice and fell to one knee. He closed his eyes and he hoped that he could do it again..

Yuna raised her hands and can feel the evil within those halls. Her hands started to emit a bit of holy workings. The Temple screamed and repelled with each ounce of Holyness it was being fed. Yuna was failing..and she fell to her knees. She looks at her followers including Skyan.
"It's not working...my power isn't generating relief...this temple is gone" She said with a bit of regret that she couldn't do more.
Wakka helped Yuna up from the ground with assistance from Tidus. Yuna looked down at the ground. Skyan approached Yuna with a bit of sorrowfulness building up in his body. Rikku followed up with Skyan. Rikku was starting to get used to Skyan..in fact she enjoyed his company a lot. What was first a respect for thiefs turned into much,much more. Skyan looked back at Rikku and broke away from her to Yuna who was almost about to return to the state of tears.
Skyan knew what it will have to come down to. He assisted Tidus and Wakka towards the boat. They were going to head back to Besaid Island.
"I...I...I think we should go back to Besaid right now" Yuna announced.
Skyan went along with it and found himself going back to the boat. The boat was ready to set sail towards Besaid. Yuna,Rikku,Tidus,Skyan and Wakka were walking towards the plank of the boat and were heading back to Besaid. 10 minutes later the boat set sail and Yuna found a spot in the darkness to sit and reflect what happened. Tidus joined her.
Skyan was about to fall asleep but he was awoken to Rikku who sat next to him. She smiled and put her hand on his resting thigh.
"I wanted to tell you I'm sorry about how I was back there...I want to thank you for the thing you said to Yunie" Rikku said still smiling.
Skyan only smiled and nodded. Skyan told Rikku that he was going to sleep. They would have a few days to reach Besaid Island again. Rikku nodded but instead of walking to fall asleep somewhere else she rested her head on Skyan's shoulder.

The Farplane. It's vast and filled of souls young and old. During the pilgrimage Yuna would perform the sending upon them so they can reach the farplane. Skyan found himself inside the Farplane. Seymour was approximately 6 feet from Skyan floating body. Seymour emerged from kneeling and looked at Skyan.
"There's no use for encouragement from you. I'm almost done and tell Yuna.. I will be waiting forher.I will be waiting in the thunder plains. Even if she resists with me. Exile will know..." Seymour said
"Who's Exile?" Skyan asked.
" He's my reinforcement" Seymour said.
"...are you talking about that creature I saw?" Skyan said.
"Oh,so you saw it?...then Iknow there's an understanding" Seymour said.
The intensity of the Faplane took his mind from Seymour,directly at the souls that were wailing and crying for their release from the walls that imprisoned them. Skyan's Attention was averted back to Seymour.
"Exile cannot be killed unless I tell it to...so no useless holy magic or fisticuffs will work...now, you will awake and tell Yuna and the rest of them that I'll be waiting..." Seymour said smiling.
Skyan awoke and it was almost daybreak as the sun was just approaching the everlasting horizon. He noticed that Rikku had her head on his shoulder. He had not disturbed her for in instant. He sat there as Day was approaching.
