Chapter 5- Whistle
Rikku moaned as her stomach continued to grumble. "Yunie! Im dying over here!" She said complaining."I know Rikku, I'm hungry too." Yuna couldn't think of any way for eighther of them to get out so she did all that she could think of: "TIDUS!" She yelled as loud as she could as Rikku covered her ears. Yuna continued to yell until she thought of something new. She remembered the promise her and Tidus had made. Instead of yelling she began a low whistle that soon changed into a high-pitched loud one. "I'm going to get us out of here Rikku."
Tidus staring around at the small graveyard, all of a sudden turned his head quickly, and listened intently."Hey Gippal, you hear that?"he said. "Umm... Is this some kind of joke?" Gippal asked getting up from his fall. He listened too but heard nothing."You know man I really dont see how this is gong to-" but Tidus cut him off in mid-sentence."Its Yuna! Come on!" Tidus took off into the brush and whistled back to her. Gippal rolled his eyes and began following Tidus who was now running like a maniac. 'He's freaking crazy. He's gone bonkers.' thought Gippal as he plowed through underbrush and branches. "Tidus slow the hell down! Us Albheds weren't built for woods." but Tidus continued to sprint picking up speed.Gippal just rolled his eyes. "Cid's girl you'd better be in serious trouble, and be worth this."
Yuna's heart skipped a beat. She heard a whistle, low at first, and then growing into a piercing sound. "Rikku! It's Tidus!" Rikku stood up suddenly excited. "Tidus! were down here!"
Gippal's heart turned over when he heard Rikku's desperate voice. He picked up speed passing Tidus. "And you thought I was on steroids!" Tidus yelled matching Gippal's pace. Gippal only laughed. "I think they're in trouble!" Gippal yelled.
Yuna looked back at Rikku. "Rikster, when he gets here I'll have him lift you out first." Rikku gave her a look. "No, Yunie you go ahead, I'm sure Tidus will want to see you first anyways." "Rikku, I'm not going to argue with you." Suddenly a figure stood at the top of the hole. It loomed over against the night sky and dark trees. It held a hand down reassuringly. "Rikku." Yuna said pushing her forward."Honestly, you go first!" Rikku rolled her eyes and took the outstretched hand. It was surprisingly rough. It lifted her tiny body out with ease. She started speaking, "Tidus, it's about time you-" but she stopped suddenly. This person had a hat on. This person wasn't talking. This person wasn't Tidus.
Yuna jumped as Rikku let out a high-pitched scream. "RIKKU! WHAT"S GOING ON! ARE YOU OKAY?" Yuna yelled up out of the hole. Rikku continued to scream until she heard footsteps coming fast. She saw blond hair streak by her. Then a second head of blond hair shot by. Like two wolves on attack both guys, Tidus and Gippal under protective male instincts, jumped upon the man wearing a hat. Tidus held the guy as Gippal began swinging, his fist hitting the guy hard. "RIKKU! HELP ME OUT!" Yuna yelled up, but Rikku was too busy watching them beat this guy half to death. She ran suddenly to Gippal and shoved him, "Stop! He didnt do anything!" She cried out for them to stop. Gippal finally let up on the guy, satisfied. "But I heard you scream!" he said suddenly starting to check her over. "Are you okay? Did he hurt you?" He lifted up her chin and checked over her face. "Im fine! He didnt hurt me at all he just-" But Gippal cut her off turning to Tidus who was now pulling Yuna out from the hole. "Tidus, we need to find somewhere to go for the night." Tidus nodded and looked carefully at Yuna. "Baby are you allright?" he said with concern looking into her eyes. They began filling up with tears. "Im fine Ti." she said looking away. He held her close against his chest until she could feel his heart beat racing. She layed her head against his shoulder and let the tears silently slide down her cheeks. When he held her, everything was ok. She was safe. He would take care of her. She looked back into his deep blue eyes not able to look away. "We should go find shelter." she said as he took her hand and they began silently walking through the woods together. He relaxed knowing his Yuna was ok. His only objective now was to find her shelter.
Gippal saw Rikku pacing off behind them and followed her."Hey did I say something to upset you?" he asked casually. She shrugged."Doesn't matter. Nothing little stupid Cid's girl says matters anyway." He grabbed onto her shoulders and forced her to stop. "Rikku don't be like that. Whatever I said to upset you, Im sorry, but your not being fair! I was just trying to protect you like I was taught to when we were growing up." she was shocked at his sudden care. She looked away as a tear slid down her smooth face. "Exactly Gippal. You dont get it do you? You dont protect someone because your taught. You protect someone because you love them." He had no response or no reactions as she silently turned and walked towards Yuna and Tidus. 'Im so stupid.' he thought to himself. 'You do love her you idiot so just tell her you still love her now while you can.' He watched her walk off and silently began walking and following the group. He did love her and missed telling her so. He missed holding her. He missed her smooth skin against his. He missed everything about her. 'I will let her know I still need her.' he thought as he silently watched her beautiful body in front of him walking alone in the distance.
