Omg I'm so sorry! I think I died…. I had extreme writers block but I have to write something cuz I feel really bad for leaving you all alone so here I am and with more please enjoy!
Rikku's P.O.V
It all happened so fast, the airship hitting the water and the windshield shattering sending water and glass back at us, we all breathed in deep as the water collided with us and pushed on us. We held on as long as we could but the water pressure and the need to get the hell out of there made us all let go.
We were swimming franticly trying to get to the front end of the ship but the pressure was pushing us back and that's when I felt a hand on my shoulder, Paine was pulling me to the doors and I realized that we had a chance of breathing so I nodded and gripped Brother making wild gestures to the door, we swam to the others trying to pry the door open.
Paine drew her sword and tried to wedge it into the door while I swam over to the control panel, I knew it was risky the electric shock would fry us all but if I put the shield on me and the panel I'd only get shocked. Buddy saw me and tried to get to me but I cast shell and protect on me, I gripped my dagger and pried off the control panel exposing the electrical cords and I thanked what ever higher being that gave Cid the idea to make the cords water proof.
Reaching my hand into the mess of cords I looked for the right cords to open the door and I could see that the others backed away from the door, my fingers brushed something and I yelped losing some air as I was shocked but grinding my teeth I gripped the cord and was rewarded with another painful shock, my other hand gripped the other broken cord that doubled the shock and I bit my lip shoving the two together and the doors groaned in protest, I could have killed the doors I was seeing spots and feeling lightheaded bit I forced the two cords closer and they started to get really hot, they were burning my hands and I could feel my skin peeling.
I saw Paine and the others panic then the doors opened a little like a foot, they lunged and pulled, water was flooding in but they kept pulling, Shinra went in, then Buddy and brother went in but was now holding the doors open from the inside "Rikku let the fucking thing go!" Brother yelled I hadn't heard him swear before in English and it shocked me into letting go but my hand was stuck. I was struggling I could see blood; Paine noticed the shell and protection fade in a shimmer and she tugged on my arms.
I could feel my skin rip and I cried out losing the remaining air I was holding and started choking on the water, Paine took my dagger and cut both cords then we heard the squeal of the doors, my head span and so did everything else. I felt someone pulling me then everything started to blur and then I was pulled up and in somewhere with air but I couldn't seem to get my lungs to work and I was choking, I saw Paine dive in and the doors slam closed thus stopping the water from filling up the rest of the room.
I felt the water stir and arms hauling me up, I couldn't move I felt hands and arms and rough banging on my back causing me to cough up water and suddenly I could breathe, I gasped and drank in the air and I was shaking.
Paine's face came into my line of vision "I can't feel my arms or my hands" I whisper "no wonder Rikku you're lucky enough to have your life! What in spira possessed you to try a stunt like that?" Paine stated and asked worry clear as day in her voice "we were gonna to die I had to do something" I said still panting as Paine shook her head then nodded "well you've saved us for now" she said as Brother limped over to us "what happened… to you?" I asked and he pointed to the shard of glass wedged into his thigh and I winced, things didn't look good not good at all.
End of P.O.V
Yuna was pacing, she and the others watched as the ship sunk and they were panicking. "We need to do something! It's going to take Cid another hour to get here! I cant just stand here" Yuna voiced and stopped her pacing looking at the water.
Lulu nodded she to was tired of waiting, her friends no her family was aboard that airship now sinking to the bottom of the sea and it was unsettling to say the least "yes but what can we do? We don't have the equipment to dive" she stated watching Yuna clench her fists, she looked ready to explode if she didn't do something soon.
Wakka was talking to Tidus trying to figure out a away to get to them when a roar of another airship startled all four of them "that was fast" they looked up at the ship, it was a dull gray all over and nothing too fancy and as they looked up a ladder dropped down, Yuna was the first on then Tidus, Wakka and Lulu.
Upon boarding the ship Cid greeted us "lets go" he said and he started heading for the still sinking airship, Yuna began pacing and worrying 'what if we're too late?' she thought to herself feeling dread well up in her stomach, she closed her eyes and her mind was assaulted with visions of Rikku's mangles and burnt body in her arms and she jerked her head 'what the hell?' she thought 'its just my mind playing tricks on me, that never happened' but something in her was off, she closed her eyes and pictured the scene again and took the time to look around at the back round.
Lulu looked around and saw Yuna looking so confused so she walked up to the ex-summener "Yuna what's wrong?" she asked and when Yuna looked at her with tears spilling down her cheeks and a great sadness I her eyes and some realization. Lulu took her into her arms "Yuna what happened?" "I remembered something Lulu, something bad, I saw Rikku die" she said before she broke down and sobbed and Lulu held her close looking more puzzled then before.
Ok yes I know that took long and I'm sorry I had writers block and I know that's no excuse but bare with me I have 3 tests tomorrow and new units and argh school can be oh so evil. R&R please!
