Love lies bleeding

Yuna part 5. I love this part. Yuna has just found out about Paine and wants to rescue Rikku before she is harmed or killed by Paine. There is quite a bit of blood and swearing in here.

Disclaimer: I do not own final fantasy's rights like I have been saying.

Recommended music to listen to: I'm Still Standing, Saturday Night's Alright, The Bitch Is Back. that sort of Elton John song.

I burst into the travel agency. "Rikku?!" She wasn't there. Where is she? Fuck now's not the time to run off. I turn and run to the out crop. Please say she hasn't been thrown off the edge. "Rikku!" I called for her. She wasn't here ether. I go back to the road and head down hoping to catch up with her before anything bad happens. I keep thinking of Paine killing Shinra. It makes me run faster.

"Yunie." Rikku calls as she stumbles out of a ruin holding onto her neck. She's been attacked. She's bleeding down her top and runs up to me for help.

"Rikku." I say as I catch her. She holds on to her bloody neck with her life. I look over her to see Paine turn and run. still with some of Rikku's blood at her mouth. I pull out my gun and shoot her several times. She somehow limps off but Rikku was my main priority.

"Paine bit." Rikku manages to say. But it seams hard for her to say like she is exhausted.

"I know." I say then help her walk to the ship. I'm carrying her by the time we reach the ship. I set her down on a chair and set the ship to fly around above the highroad so Paine can't come back in. Then I tend Rikku.

"Let me see your neck Rikku." She lifts her hand and braces as she expects something painful or bad to happen. I clean off the blood to see any problems. Looking at the source of the blood I can't see any wounds or scars? The only sign of the wound is the blood that has been left there.

"Is it bad." She asks worried about the wound.

"It's healed?" I reply very confused to the situation. How is this possible? What's going on here?

"What?" Rikku questions. Taken back by my answer just as much as I was.

"How do you feel?" I ask as it may help to diagnose any problems.

"My neck stings but it is slowly getting better. I feel kind of sleepy." Well sleep might help it can help most things.

"Well take a rest." I suggest. And so we go to the cabin and Rikku falls asleep pretty quickly. I try to keep up and keep an eye on her but I fall victim to my own bed.

The next day.

I woke to another day I quickly remembered the previous day and shot up to check Rikku. She was still in bed but she looks dead. "Rikku." I shake her. "Rikku." I call to her wanting her to wake.

She rolls over. "Yeah." She replies. Thank god she's alive. She opens her eyes and smiles to see me. "The pain has gone from my neck." She says happily.

That's great. But she looks like she is ill. It's why I thought she was dead. Her skin has lost some colour, her eyes seam less lively and even her hair looks duller. All of this because blood loss? "Rikku you look terrible seriously." I tell her as it is.

"Huh. But I feel great." She told me.

"Maybe you need something to eat." I suggest thinking food would help.

"No thanks I'm not really hungry." She replies. Weird Rikku usually has a huge apatite and she didn't have super last night. "Maybe I need some fresh air." Rikku suggested.

"Sure good idea." I replied. I let her on deck and waited in the cabin thinking over what the hell is happening nothing is making sense.

Later.

Rikku raced back in and spoke in a panic. "Yunie I'm going grey." What?

"What?" Rikku's going grey?

"Look my hair is going grey." She claimed and then walked closer so I could see her hair. It looked a little grey but it could be the light.

"Well it looks a little greyer but it's still blond Rikku. Maybe it's just the light? You still look pale and your eyes look off colour." I told her.

"Well I'm still tired." Was Rikku's explanation "Owie. What the fuck. I bit myself." Rikku cried out.

"Oh Rikku." I sympathised. But then Rikku dribbled out some blood. "What?"

"mmm... What?" Rikku repeated.

"You cut yourself." I explained.

"Accidents happen." She said as she wiped away her blood.

And so Rikku went back to bed. Where she slept for the day it was almost worrying how much she was sleeping. She only woke up before as she had been woken by me. Something's defiantly not right with her at the moment. She was still sleeping by the time I went to bed.

The next day. 6 am.

I was woken by Rikku early the next morning. "Get away!.. Leave me alone!.. How are you doing this!.. Get away from me!.." Rikku was jumping around screaming this.

"Rikku stoooppp. Uhh. What the hell?" I said slowing down and changing the subject through shock by looking at Rikku. Rikku wasn't going to get paler anymore her skin was white as paper. Her hair has gone grey completely. Her eyes are?.. Reddish brown? Is Rikku turning into Paine?

"Yunie. Paine. Tell me you could hear her." She pleaded to me hoping that I could hear Paine.

Well duh I couldn't hear Paine. "No Rikku I can't hear her. Have you looked in the mirror?" I asked. She really should.

"No." She responded quietly. Obviously she hadn't realised. I walked her over to the mirror and she looked into it. "Oh my god what's happening to me." Rikku hugged up against me to hold herself from the shock that she had seen. "Help me Yunie… Go Away!" She added to the end.

"Huh?" I looked at her in shock why had she said that?

"No not you." Rikku came back and held against me again. "I'm hungry." Rikku said.

"You're getting your appetite back that's good. After all you haven't eaten in over a day." I tried to remain optimistic this is obviously very confusing for her Let alone me. She was still holding onto me for support. She twitched against me. "I know you're scared."

Oww my neck what the? Rikku bit me?

Ha just when you thought Rikku was dead. (That means you ice.) Ok who honestly expected that to happen. (maybe darkana arez but she seems to know everything.) Next chapter Rikku Part 5. It made more sence to me to tell them this way around. Review me if you want to.

Thank you for reading.
