I do not own FFX or FFX-2, or any of the characters from the game. They belong to Squaresoft/Square-Enix. I do however, own Stree and Kan, and the other characters that are not originally from the games.
The eight Sahagins surrounded him, swimming with quick bursts, trying to put him off guard. Refusing to let himself get distracted, Stree Kry'tal grabbed his sword, the Graviton Hammer, and let himself sink through the water a little. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, Stree saw one of the fiends attack. As it pushed itself quickly through the water, Stree spun himself around and swung his sword in a wide arc, slicing the monster cleanly in half. Seemingly sensing that his attention was focused on the now-dead monster, the others seven rushed in all at once, Smiling, Stree propelled himself upwards through the water. Not quite quick enough to follow, the seven Sahagins all collided, making a loud cracking noise that echoed even through the water. Stree swum lazily for a second, laughing silently at the disoriented fiends, them swam back down and finished them off. Shaking his head in slight disappointment, Stree swam back to the surface. His head broke through the murky water surrounding Baaj Temple, and pulled himself out and onto one of the many stone paths hanging overhead.
"Having fun?" he heard a low voice behind him.
"Not really," replied Stree. He stood up and turned around, putting his sword back onto his back as he did so. He faced the person who'd talked to him, a young blonde with black streaks through her hair, and smiled. "There's no challenge here." The blonde, Kan, pursed her lips.
"You need a life," she said. Stree smiled, and wiped his mid-length dark-brown hair away from his eyes.
"I need a challenge. Ever since we came to Spira, there hasn't been one person who could face me in a fight." Kan smiled, then turned and walked back to the airship sitting just behind her.
"You know, I heard that there's a fighting championship in Luca in a few days. Maybe you should enter," she said as Stree followed her through the entrance. Stree walked over to the bathroom and grabbed a towel, then took off his vest, shirt and sword, and started to wipe the mud from his finely muscled body.
"I don't know. There's probably no challenge there either." Kan laughed lightly, and threw one of Stree's shirts over to him.
"I don't know," she said as Stree put on the shirt, then put his vest back on. He decided to leave his Hammer on the table near him. "I heard that the swordsman who helped defeat Sin is going to be there."
"Uh, Kan, you may not know this, but Auron passed onto the Farplane when they defeated Sin." Kan cocked an eyebrow at Stree, her lips pursed together.
"I know that, you idiot. I meant the other swordsman." Stree narrowed his eyes.
"Tidus." Kan nodded. Stree turned and walked quickly to the bridge of their airship.
"Hey!" shouted Kan. "Where are we going?"
"Where do you think? We're going to Luca. I have some unfinished business with Tidus."
