I don't own any characters these are all Square-enix duh. Hey make sure to read and review!
A week after the end of the game in 10-2, the girls are back in Besaid Rikku and Paine sit and talk…
Rikku: its kinda cool, that love story between Lene and Shuyin. I can't stop thinking about it! Romance! Its amazing.
Paine: maybe… Lene connected strait to Yuna. Yuna felt Lene's emotions, its really deep.
Rikku: Yunnie got to feel it how Lene felt about Shuyin, I guess that was lucky, considering we all have the same dress spheres! (She looks around) Well she already knows about love, she's felt it before. I'm sure it struck a cord in her, rekindling old flames maybe. But I know she felt more then Lene's feelings.
Paine: oh?
Rikku: I don't know if Yunnie ever told you this but, 2 years ago when she was going on her pilgrimage as a summoner… she was in love. Its actually what saved her life! He wouldn't give up on her and in the end she lived! But… he left when Sin disappeared… with a final hug he was gone.
Paine: hmm… what a story. Yuna never told me.
Rikku: she doesn't talk much about it. But you know Shuyin looked a lot like him.
Paine: yeah I remember you two were saying, "he looked like him"… Looked like who I wondered?
Rikku: well yeah…
Yuna walks in…
Yuna: hi guys!
Rikku: hey Yunnie! What's up?
Yuna: you'll never believe this but, (she giggles) everyone is here with gifts, it's a huge celebration going on tonight in our honor.
Paine: what? They haven't gotten over that yet? Its been two weeks.
Rikku: we're celebs now, it doesn't matter.
Yuna: I can't believe it! Everyone is going to be there.
Rikku: it sounds really exciting!
Wakka walks in…
Wakka: ooh I'm tired eh. (he flops on the couch) that stuff is heavy.
Rikku: working hard huh?
Wakka: yeah the boys decided that you all did a big thing for Spira so we got you big gifts ya. Plus pro blitz ball lessons.
Wakka lights up when he mentions blitz ball to the girls, that's his love to the end. No matter how tired he is, he'll put on a smile for blitz ball.
Yuna: thank you Wakka. (she smiles)
Rikku: Rikku star blitz ball player! Hey sounds nice huh?
Paine: interesting.
Rikku: hey Yunnie what to wear? We gotta go shopping! Its our party! So, should we match or wear different outfits?
Paine: I like what I'm wearing just fine.
Yuna: well, I'll go shopping with you Rikku. It would be exciting. (She looks at Paine) It would be even more exciting if we all went though.
Rikku: yeah Paine don't be a stinker! It's a good day!
Paine: what? Really I don't… okay fine I'll go.
Wakka: good that will give us time to set stuff up. You guys do us a favor and stay gone the entire day.
Yuna: you bet.
Rikku: surprise us good! (she jumps and smiles)
Wakka: got it.
Rikku: hmm, now were is brother? I gotta find him, he's gonna take us! (she runs out to find brother)
Paine: lets go Yuna.
Yuna: yeah.
Paine walks out…
Wakka: Yuna.
Yuna: hmm?
Wakka: how you holding up?
Yuna: holding up? What do you mean?
Wakka: all this saving the world stuff again. You know you are really brave and very strong. You've grown to be very independent.
Yuna: I don't want to make people worry about me anymore, it wasn't fair to make you guys wait hand and foot on me when I was a summoner. I need to live life for me now, like you've started to live life for you. (she smiles)
Wakka: I admire that, but in all honesty you seemed happier back then.
Yuna: I'm happy now too, and I haven't forgotten our sacrifices.
Wakka: your sacrifice…
Yuna: … yes. It's hard but we must continue we can't live in the past. I've learned not to.
Wakka: even with all that's happened? Can you really say that you've moved on?
Yuna: … (she closes her eyes)
Wakka: Yuna?
Yuna: I… have to go now. (she smiles at Wakka) I'll see you later on tonight.
Wakka: yeah.
Yuna leaves and Lulu walks in…
Yuna: hi Lulu.
Lulu: hello Yuna.
Yuna: see you guys later.
Wakka: hey Lu.
Lulu: come on get up Wakka, we don't have time for you to sleep. We have plenty to do today.
Wakka: yeah I know I know.
Lulu: Yuna seemed in deep thought.
Wakka: yeah we were talking about old times, back when she was a summoner.
Lulu: oh?
Wakka: Lu I just don't get her, even with all that's happened. She still smiles when she wants to cry. What makes her so strong?
Lulu: her strength and her will.
Wakka: maybe his will?
Lulu: hmm, I know she won't let his memory die, she's still tied to him. Even though it's been 2 years.
Wakka: … (he looks up at the ceiling) I wish for just one day ya, that Yuna and Ti could be reunited.
Lulu: that would be very interesting.
Wakka: I'd get to play blitz with him once more, and he'd get to see Vidina.
Lulu: yes so much has happened since he's been gone.
Wakka: yeah, he'd be surprised to see Yuna now. She's changed a lot.
Lulu: she's changed but a lot about her is still very much the same. (she pulls on Wakka) now lets get going, we have a lot to work on.
Wakka: right.
They are all on the airship, on their way to Luca to go shopping. Rikku is deciding what to buy before the girls get there…
Rikku: hmm, I think I want to wear yellow!
Paine: yellow?
Rikku: it's my all time favorite color!
Paine: yellow isn't my color.
Rikku: you'd be cute in yellow.
Paine: no.
Rikku: oh please!
Paine: I'm not wearing yellow.
Rikku: why not?
Paine: I'm not going to debate this with you Rikku.
Rikku: oh come on! Yunnie what do you think?
Yuna: …
Rikku: Yunnie? (she looks at Yuna) Yunnie what's wrong?
Yuna: wrong? Huh? Nothing is wrong.
Paine: okay then if you say so.
Rikku: so what to wear? Do you like yellow?
Yuna: yellow? Sure… that sounds good.
Paine: well you two can wear yellow, I'm wearing what I have on. I agreed to come with you but I refuse to shop.
The girls are in a store and even though Paine complains and protests, Rikku has managed to pile clothes on Paine begging her to try them on…Paine: you cannot be serious Rikku.
Rikku: oh come on you don't like yellow, so try red, blue, green, or any of the other colors you have in your hands.
Paine: no way!
Rikku shoves Paine into the dressing room ending the debate, Rikku knows that words won't work with Paine… actions actions actions! She then notices that Yuna is staring into blank space, Yuna has actually been that way all day and Rikku is dying to get to the center of the problem…
Rikku: what about you Yunnie? Did you decide what to wear?
Yuna: oh, uh sure yeah.
Rikku: oh? what did you pick out?
Yuna: huh? Oh well just pick me out whatever you think looks best.
Rikku: Yunnie something is wrong! Tell me what is it? I'm your cousin you can tell me anything. (She sits next to Yuna)
Yuna: it's just that… no it isn't anything. I guess Wakka had me thinking and I just can't stop now. It's really nothing I promise.
Rikku: thinking about what?
Yuna: I…
Rikku: come on Yunnie whatever is bothering you, won't bother you as much once you let it out.
Yuna: well… (She stands up and starts to pace) uh…
Rikku: now I really know something is wrong. You're pacing! (She stands up and holds Yuna's hands) Yunnie is it something bad?
Yuna: its about the past… back when I was a summoner.
Rikku: so what did Wakka say about it?
Yuna: he just made me think about how my life was back then, and how it is now. How I've changed (she smiles)
Rikku: really?
Yuna: do you think I seem unhappy?
Rikku: huh did Wakka say that? I think you're happy!
Yuna: me too, anyway its nothing. I'm sorry if I seem… not like myself… I was just thinking about that (she smiles) that's all. Hey so what about that outfit?
Paine walks out the dressing room wearing a blue jean mini skirt and a baby blue halter-top…
Rikku: oh! How Kawaii! You look so good! Yunnie what do you think?
Yuna: Paine really its nice.
Paine: I'm not wearing this, I wouldn't be caught dead in this.
Yuna and Rikku smile at Paine and after shopping the girls head to the blitz ball stadium to kill more time until the big party…
Rikku: can you guys believe we're going learn how to play blitz ball? It's such a spectator's sport. I never thought I'd get a chance to play.
Yuna: hmm, me either… but I'm up for it. I'd love to feel the rush you get when millions of people scream your name.
Paine: you already get that feeling Yuna, you're known throughout Spira.
Yuna: I meant… never mind. I guess I was thinking about something else.
Rikku: maybe you mean the rush that you would get if you could see Tidus play.
Yuna: w… what?
Rikku: yeah sure act like you don't know. (she smirks)
Yuna's face turns bloody red with embarrassment, as much as she denies it she can't hide it…
Yuna: uh… no that's not it… I… oh.
Rikku: admit it! I know what's on your mind.
Paine: interesting we were just talking about this earlier.
Rikku: yeah it's on everyone's mind, you got to feel it again with Shuyin and Lene. They were like you and him. How did it feel? Did it remind you of him? Were you like totally invigorated?
Yuna: I don't know. (she sits down) I don't want to think of the past but it's hard.
Paine: two weeks ago you relived something that happened 2 years ago in your own mind. And you don't want to do anything about it?
Yuna: I do! But what can I do? He's gone… (she looks at the sky) probably back home in his Zanarkand.
Rikku: I bet he misses you.
Yuna: hmm (she smiles)
Rikku: oh Yunnie I wish you guys could be together again just for one day!
Brother radios Rikku…
Brother: Rikku come in.
Rikku: what?
Brother: you'll never believe this but Shinra has found another dress sphere. Come aboard quickly!
Rikku: roger! Come on guys let's go, Shinra found a new dress sphere.
Paine: now that's news I wanna hear!
Rikku: yeah!
Yuna: lets go.
They get on board and talk to Shinra, who is very excited about his new findings…Shinra: its called the eminence dress sphere, it has the basic functions of status, such as poison, petrify, etc.
Rikku: ooh goodie goodie!
Paine: lets test it out.
Yuna: right, gull wings lets move out!
Buddy: hold your horses guys, Shinra tell them the rest of it.
Shinra: well… I'm not quite sure of the affects it has on the wearer just yet. But I'm sure it's not harmful.
Rikku: well if its not harmful lets test it out.
Buddy: okay, I just wanted to make sure you guys knew all the facts about it before you put it on that's all.
Yuna: you always look out for us, thanks.
Buddy: no problem, you guys are family.
Rikku: yeah!
Buddy drops them off in a field…Buddy: we'll be nearby call us when you're done.
Rikku: gotcha!
In the field the girls find fiends to test the dress sphere on…Paine: lets go!
They engage in battle with a few fiends and they change into the new dress spheres…
Rikku: stylish!
Paine: lets see what it can do. (she goes to attack a creature) Petrify (she hits it and it turns into stone) hey (she looks at Rikku) just as he said.
Rikku: hey what else can it do? (she gets ready to cast a spell) I wonder if it can mix with spells! Hey you there don't you wanna go blind? (she casts a thunder spell and the creature sees darkness once it is hit with the electricity) now that's cool!
Yuna: yeah!
Rikku: Yunnie its your turn!
Yuna: lets see, I'll put it to sleep. (she runs to attack the creature to put it to sleep) ugh… Yuna falls blank in front of the fiend, and since she's KO'd the creature is getting ready to attack her…
Rikku & Paine: Yuna!
Paine: (she changes dress spheres and cuts the fiend with her warrior sword before it gets a chance to attack Yuna) are you okay? (she shakes Yuna) Yuna?
Rikku: (she changes dress spheres and finishes of the rest of the fiends) whoa, what happened?
Paine: she's unconscious.
Rikku: um… (she looks through her items) here I have a remedy.
Paine: use it.
Rikku sprinkles the remedy on Yuna but it doesn't do anything…
Rikku: what?
Paine: buddy get back here ASAP! We got a problem!
On the airship everyone is crowded around Yuna…
Shinra: you said she attempted to put the fiend asleep but she fell asleep?
Rikku: its weird, because when Paine and I used it nothing happened to us.
Buddy: first the song-stress dress sphere and now this one? (he folds his arms) Yuna shouldn't be allowed to wear them (he shakes his head in disbelief)
Paine: when will she wake up?
Shinra: I'm not sure.
Buddy: we got a party to get to in like 3 hours. People are going to worry if Yuna isn't there.
Rikku: he's right, (she looks at Yuna) come on Yunnie wake up (she rubs Yuna's hand)
