YAY! I got reviews! I'm pleased very easily. ; ...For some reason some of the reviews aren't showing up on Here's the next chapter. Things start to kick off more...I think.
Chapter 2: The Girl
Tidus practically threw Wakka out the door. "What was that for, brudda?"
"Get your ass moving! We gotta see if this girl is okay!" Tidus only swore when he was really pissed or concerned. This time he was both. He got out the door, swinging around quickly to lock the door. "GO!"
Wakka, scared out of his mind, sprinted for his life after Lulu and the others. Tidus soon followed.
--
A limp body lay in the far corner of the alley. Her short brown hair stuck to her face. She was absolutely drenched.
"She must've been out during the storm yesterday..." Wakka said, concerned.
"No?" Lulu replied in a sarcastic tone. "Somebody probably just dumped a bucked of water one her."
"I was just trying to be 'observant.'" Wakka shot back. "You're the one who told me to!"
"Calm down, big boy." Lulu patted his shoulder as she passed by, heading for the girl.
Tidus just arrived. As soon as his eyes reached the girl, he rushed right past Lulu to the unconscious girl. He gently flipped her over to her back. Her soaking clothes stuck to her body, showing off her curves and...other things. Tidus blushed.
"Let's get her over to our place," Tidus mumbled. "She doesn't look so good..."
"As I thought." Lulu had now reached Tidus and the girl. She took a quick scan of the girl with her eyes. She really didn't look so good. Wounds covered her from head to toe, and she had a rather perturbing bump on her head.
Tidus slid one arm under her knees and the other behind her back. Before he had the chance to hoist her up, her eyes cracked open. As soon as her eyes focused enough for her to make out her surroundings, she let out a yelp in surprise.
'Who are these people?' she thought to herself. 'What do they want?' She quickly climbed out of Tidus' arms and backed against the corner on the other side of the alley. Her head throbbed. It was near impossible to even think of anything.
"It's okay," Tidus cooed in his gentlest voice. "We're not gonna hurt you. We want to help you."
She wanted to trust him, but couldn't bring herself to. His voice was so gentle and calming... No! She wouldn't let her guard down. Slowly, she eased her way down the wall of the alley. He started to approach her.
She ran for it.
--
"Damn! That girl can run!" Wakka took a deep breath. They'd been scurrying around trying to find the girl. Eventually they had broken up into separate groups to cover more area. Still, luck didn't seem to be on their side.
"She has to be around here somewhere," Tidus huffed. "She couldn't have gone too far. Imagine trying to run in those clothes."
"Right. Around here somewhere." Wakka took short little breaths. He was determined to find her.
--
Kimahri inhaled deeply, taking in the scents of the area. She was there. He knew it. Rikku was searching every nook and cranny. Nothing. Where could she be hiding?
Both Rikku and Kimahri knew the girl. They didn't want to tell anyone, though. It might bring up some problems.
"Where could Yunie be?" Rikku exclaimed, throwing up another cardboard box. "Kimahri?"
The Ronso turned his attention toward the young Al Bhed. "Yes, Rikku."
"Do you think Yunie's alright?" She had a worried look in her eyes.
"Yuna fine." Kimahri took another whiff of the air. "Kimahri find Yuna. Yuna be alright."
Rikku nodded. She hoped he was right.
--
The wind howled. "Another storm is coming." Auron seemed to always know when bad weather was coming.
"We should still wait for the others." Lulu rubbed her arms swiftly. She was cursing herself out for not bringing her jacket.
"I know."
--
Yuna scooted further back against the cold stonewall. The cold sensation gave a burning feeling to her back. She barely felt it anyway. Most of her body was numb from the cold. Her drenched clothes sucked in all the wind around her.
A pair of two fuzzy blue feet passed by. They seem oddly familiar. She racked her brain for and answer, ignoring the pain.
While in her deep concentration, Kimahri stumbled upon her. "Rikku," he whispered lightly. "Found Yuna."
