Rikku sighed as she looked at the scenery whip by her, just thinking about how boring it had gotten after saving Spira again, nothing was catching her interest and she was getting restless and depressed. When she thought of why she was depressed Yunie and Tidus came to mind, he was found and Yunie rushed off to be with him and now they were on Besaid enjoying there time together leaving her and Paine to sphere hunt alone.
Paine was on the bridge with Buddy and Brother looking for something to do because even she had agreed with Rikku that they were running out of things to do. Rikku stood up and stretched when the ship swerved and Rikku stumbled forwards, if it wasn't for her quick reflexes she would have been thrown off, gripping her COM link and speaking into it "what the hell was that!" she waited for a response and the COM crackled to life "Rikku you ok?" the voice of Buddy spoke "yeah I'm ok, what happened…aah!" the ship lurched down and she lost her footing! For seconds she was in free fall before the ship came up and her back slammed into the deck "uugh oww" she mumbled to herself and tried to get up. "Rikku! Are you there!" Brother's panic stricken voice came through the static "no not really …. Don't do that again please" she said in a daze as she hauled herself up but a tremor though the ship made her fall to her knees "one of the engines caught fire, and the controls are-" and then everything was cut off Rikku would have said something but thunder roared as lightning lit up the sky sending Rikku to her knees.
Her heart pounded in her ears as she scrambled to the stairs to get inside when a loud bang to her left sounded and she slipped, the sky poured down like an endless river making it harder and harder to see or stand, Rikku was freaking out trying her best to stay calm when the air ship tilted forwards and she began to slide down Rikku tried to slow down but the rain had soaked everything and she slide faster until she felt nothing but air under her 'CRED!' she thought…. And then no more then 3 seconds later she collided with the lift doors.
She sat there panting and trying to get her legs to work as her mind couldn't get over the fact that she almost died several times out here until her COM crackled to life with Paine's frantic voice calling out for her "Rikku! Are you there!" Rikku gripped it and tried to talk into it with a steady voice but she was shaking "I'm…he…here Paine" she said pulling herself up and barely stopping herself from colliding into the wall when the ship gave another powerful jerk "Rikku crackle -ake an emergence landing crackle buzz come inside!" Rikku not catching all of that, she replied "I'm coming in! See you in a few!" she turned and punched a code into the panel expecting it to open but it just opened a little like a foot wide and Rikku started cursing as thunder roared behind her as she gripped the sided of the doors and started pushing trying to make the hole wider.
She pried the door a little wider and slipped inside the lift and pressed the button for the bridge and the lift groaned and started taking her down to the bridge. The doors opened and she jerked out wanting to get out of that death trap because all the while being in there the lift kept making screeching noises and was starting to scare her even more making her think she'd die in there.
She stumbled down the hall as the ship trembled and jerked around sending her into the walls more times then not, finally making it to the doors to the bridge and they opened with screeching that made her wince. Stepping into the bridge she forced herself not to gape in shock as she looked around, Buddy and Brother were at the helm trying to steady the airship and Paine was helping Shinra get communications back online with little success.
Rikku hopped the railing and ran to where Paine and Shinra were, she didn't ask if they needed help she just dropped to her knees and started ripping off the metal around the computer, pulling out wires and fiddling with them trying to find the right ones she needed to get the COM back up. The ship jerked causing both Brother and Buddy to lose grip of the wheel and the ship started to fall doing a nose dive, "Oh shit!" someone yelled as things started to get worse and at that second navigation and communications came online "where the hell are we!" Buddy yelled as he and Brother gripped back the wheel and tried to pull the up to stop the nose dive "we're…..we're by Besaid!" Shinra informed us "call….someone!" Rikku yelled gripping onto Paine so she could stand.
Rikku's POV
Paine tapped a few buttons and started calling out "HELLO? IS ANYONE THERE?" Paine was panicking I had never seen Paine panic and it made her worry even more but pulling myself together she felt the ship level out a bit so I decided to take a risk and I ran forwards to the helm to try and help them but as I got there another boom rattled us all and sent me tumbling, I smacked my head on something hard and I could taste blood in my mouth "shit ow" I moaned I knew that if I passed out I was as good as dead. I felt a hand grip mine and hoist me up, I was wobbling and my head was throbbing "Stay wake" I heard the worried tone of Brother and I knew that he was worried and I could hear Paine's voice asking me if I was ok "ya" I mumbled then looked out the big windshield thing and lunged at the wheel with Brother there with me Buddy was there "about time!" he was sweating and I could see panic in his eyes as we all pulled trying to lessen the crash. Paine was trying to get someone anyone and right when it all seemed lost I could here Yunie's voice crackling and her image was there but staticy "Yuna! We have a problem!" I heard Yuna gasp and the ship lerched and started groaning I felt my heart pounding harder "WE'RE GOING DOWN" I cried as we all must have heard the outer shell cracking and moaning under the pressure.
I could hear everyone yelling and I was too as the ship took the hole nose dive and we all were forced to hold onto something as gravity lifted us off the ground, and anything that wasn't bolted to something went flying back towards the door, the pressure and speed that we were falling at the glass started to crack. "oh Hyne we're gonna die" I heard myself mumble, Paine was talking to Yunie telling her to look out for us and I felt my hands start to lose grip, I barely had time to squeak as I lost grip and was flying to the other end of the room at top speed so I closed my eyes.
Suddenly something caught me and I opened my eyes to see it was two something's, Shinra and Paine caught me and started pulling me towards them, I gripped onto something stable and I say Yunie, Lulu, Wakka and Tidus there I heard them yelling things and me and Paine saw the fear in there eyes "we see you! Hold on!" Wakka cried I turned my head and all I saw was blue rushing towards us, I realized that Brother and Buddy were better off back here with us "guys let go we'll get you!" Buddy looked like he understood "you better not miss!" she cried out and me and Paine got ready while Brother was hollering that he'd die if he let go, but Buddy pushed off and we gripped him, the force impact catching him and everything made my head spin.
Brother say the water coming rapidly closer and he knew what he had to do, he let go and for an instant I saw in his eyes realization that we're probably going to die and I gripped onto him and him to me. I closed my eyes, we lost communications when brother let go, this was it wasn't it "we're going to die aren't we?" I asked Paine as I opened my eyes and she looked back grimly "we saved Spira this should be easy" she smirked and I smiled back.
N/A POV
On the Island of Besaid Yuna and the others watched in horror as the mighty Airship plummeted down to the waters, a massive tidal wave and some explosions were heard, Yuna's eyes watered, no she would not lose hope they could have survived but she needed to know, they had to get out there. She remembered Shinra explaining how to use the COM to contact different people so she raced back towards the village, she needed to call someone with a boat and experience with under water searching … she needed Cid. And as she ran she thought of a way to tell her uncle that his daughter might be dead, she didn't want to believe it but it was a possibility and with that she ran faster, panting as she reached the COM link, she fiddled with it and suddenly was greeted with a familiar face "Yuna so good to here from ya!" she swallowed "Uncle Cid there's been an accident" and she watched his face pale.
