Yay! I got reviews! I didn't think I'd get any…thanks Blue Bragon and Fantasy Girl7!

Chapter 2: Family Reunions & Battle Plans

Jecht. The sound of his voice was the last thing Tidus wanted to hear, yet here he was, and it was his own fault he was here. Maybe he shouldn't of destroyed Braska's Final Aeon, and his father along with it. But then again, if he hadn't, he'd seem selfish and be dumped by Yuna.

"Son?" said Jecht, not believing his eyes.

"Dad," replied Tidus firmly, showing only a slight sign of emotion. Jecht suddenly grabbed Tidus's shoulders hard.

"Thank you! Thank you so much. If hadn't been for you, I'd still be wreaking havoc as Sin," said Jecht.

Tidus couldn't help it. Maybe it was the fact his father was showing him affection, or maybe it was because he had saved him. Nevertheless, he let a tear escape his eye.

"Still a cry baby I see," said Jecht, smiling. Tidus laughed and turned away.

"Auron, where's Braska?" asked Jecht all of a sudden.

"Around. Why?"

"I need to talk to him."

Jecht left the room and Auron turned to Tidus.

"He's been waiting for you. He doesn't say anything, but we can all tell," he said, smiling. "Follow. There is something we must discuss."

Tidus followed Auron into the large rumpus room. It was filled with gym equipment.

"All Jecht and Chappu do is train. There's a blitzball stadium here, but it's unsafe to leave alone," said Auron, walking towards the back of the room.

He flicked a switch, and all the gym equipment melted into the floor, and in their place spawned computers, radars and all different types of military equipment. Auron grabbed a microphone.

"Meeting. Now."

Tidus sat down on one of the chairs that were situated around a large screen. Chappu entered, and sat next to Tidus.

"You helped the Besaid Aurochs win the cup, ya?" he asked.

"Well, yeah. But it was mostly Wakka's influence that spurred the team."

"I would kill to play blitzball with Wakka again. But, here I am. I never let Luzzu forget it."

"Luzzu? Here's here?"

"Oh, he doesn't live here. He's in the Crusader's Lodge, towards the north. We haven't seen him in ages due to the war."

"War?"

But Chappu didn't have time to answer, because Biran and Yenke had come in, yelling about who was the strongest. They sat to the other side of Tidus. Tidus was worried, but he realized they were laughing and only joking around, which clamed him a bit. Jecht and Braska followed, deep in conversation. They sat next to Chappu.

"We have a new weapon," began Auron. "A powerful one. One to continue our stories."

"Auron, you've got to lay off the sake. These stories you keep referring to, everyone seems to have one!" said Jecht.

"Well, that was the general—"

"Enough!" said Braska. "We must concentrate on the situation at hand."

Auron looked at Braska, then continued.

"This war is getting out of hand. Too many souls are being destroyed. The current living Guado have even closed off the Farplane, because people have been distraught when their relatives wouldn't show up. We must help to stop it, and bring back a peaceful Farplane!"

"I suggest an alliance with the Ronso's," said Chappu. "The Guado are the one's pushing the war, ya?"

Biran and Yenke roared in approval.

"Yes, but the Ronso aren't exactly trying to stop the war either," said Jecht.

This time Biran and Yenke roared fiercely in disagreement.

"Wait! The Ronso and Guado are at war down here? They want revenge for what Seymour did to them on Mt. Gagazet!" said Tidus.

"Well, no one seems to know where Seymour is. There's a theory that is soul was ultimately destroyed when you defeated him inside Sin," said Braska.

"There must be some other reason the Guado are attacking," said Chappu.

"Biran crush Guado. Friends join mighty Ronso!" roared Biran.

"He's right. All we've found are negative emotions towards the Guado. The logical choice would be to join the Ronso," said Braska.

"Raise your hands if you are in agreement with Braska," said Auron.

Everyone's hand rose.

"Then it's decided. Meeting over."

Everyone got up to leave. But as Chappu got up, Tidus noticed a glow inside his shirt. He took out the Brotherhood sword, which was glowing brightly. He knew what it meant.

"Here," said Tidus, handing the sword to Chappu. "Wakka meant for you to have this."

As soon as Chappu gripped the hilt of the sword, the sword glowed brighter.

"Thanks. I've needed a weapon for ages. But what about you?" asked Chappu.

"I've got my Caladbolg sword," said Tidus, taking it out and showing it to Chappu.

Chappu nodded and left. Tidus followed him. He had thought he'd left conflict behind him when he came to the Farplane. Deep inside, he was beginning to regret destroying Yu Yevon.
