Actually one time my friends and I tried playing blitzball in their swimming pool. It didn't work out too well... This is my lame attempt to portray Wakka's Jamaican accent. Anyway, here is Zexy's and Xaldy's adventure in Destiny Islands!

Chapter 10 -- Blitzball

Zexion and Xaldin slowly walked around to the other side of the coast. Neither one spoke because neither one speaks much anyway. Suddenly, a large blue and white ball hit Xaldin in the back of the head, interrupting the silence.

"Hey, Sideburns! Give us our ball back!"

The two Nobodies turned to see two young boys running toward them. One had short, spiky blonde hair and the other had even spikier red hair tied back with a blue bandana.

"Here," Xaldin muttered as he threw the ball back to the boys.

Zexion decided to ask the boys about Demyx. "Excuse me, but have either of you seen a man with a blonde mullet carrying an innertube running around anywhere?"

The blonde-haired boy grinned mischieviously. "Maybe..."

"Hey, Tidus, man! Let's play them for it!" shouted the red-head.

"Good idea, Wakka!" the blonde replied. Then he turned to Zexion. "Okay, Emo-boy, we'll tell you where your mullet friend is if you can beat us in blitzball!"

Zexion glared at Tidus for being called Emo-boy. "What on earth is blitzball?" he asked calmly.

"It's an underwater game where you have to score goals on the other team, man!" Wakka answered.

"What, you've never played blitzball? You emos need to get out more! Geez!" Tidus taunted.

"I don't have time for this nonsense," Zexion mumbled, and he motioned for Xaldin to move on. Xaldin, however, had an idea.

"Zexion, we have powers that are far superior to these boys," he whispered. "We could easily beat them, and if they don't tell us then we'll steal their hearts."

"Hm, valid point, Number III." Zexion glanced over to the boys. "All right, we will join in your stupid game. But you must tell us all of the rules so that it is fair."

Tidus jumped up. "Sweet! C'mon, Wakka! Let's squash some emos!"

The four of them dove into the water to find Tidus' secret blitzball court. It was fairly large and somewhat resembled a cross between a soccer field and a basketball court, only underwater. Wakka had explained the rules to Zexion and Xaldin:

"The point of da game is to score more points than your opponent, man. One of you plays goalie and defends your goal from da opponents' shots, and da other one plays offense and tries to shoot da ball into da other goal. Since each team only has two players, we won't have to worry about passing and stuff, man."

"That is all?" Zexion asked suspiciously.

"Yeah, man! That's da basic way to play da game. It's easy to pick up!"

Since Zexion did not wish to do as much swimming around, he made Xaldin be offense. This is quite fascinating how we are still able to breathe even though we are underwater, he thought as he floated by his goal.

"Let the game begin!" Tidus shouted eagerly.

Xaldin got the ball first and swam over to Wakka, who was the other team's goalie. He was a fast swimmer due to his strong build, but when he kicked the ball into the goal Wakka deflected it and hit it to Tidus. Tidus then swam over to Zexion and kicked the ball.

Ugh, so I still have to do work anyway. This is such a bother...

Zexion reluctantly caught the ball and threw it back to Xaldin. The game kept going on like this for some time. Finally, the halftime whistle blew and they all went back above water to work on their game plans.

"This is not going anywhere," Zexion grumbled. "That idiot Mullet-head has probably gotten bored and gone back to the Castle by now."

"Maybe we should switch positions?" Xaldin suggested.

"Then I have to do more work. I'm already tired of this stupid game," Zexion complained. Then he got an idea.

"I suppose maybe I could use my Illusion powers to confuse the blonde one and make a few points there."

"Mm. That would work," replied Xaldin.

Zexion approached the boys. "Is it allowed for us to switch positions?"

"Sure, but you're such a scrawny emo kid you'll never outswim me!" Tidus bragged.

"You'll regret those words," Zexion muttered.

Once again they went underwater to finish the game. This time, Xaldin went in goal, with Zexion playing attack.

I suppose I could make this a bit more interesting with my Illusions...

The whistle blew, but Tidus got the ball first. He swam to Xaldin and began to shoot, but Zexion teleported over to him and blocked the shot. Then he swam over to Wakka and created three illusions of the ball to confuse him. He shot the ball, and since Wakka was confused by the illusions he ended up letting the ball in. The Nobodies scored!

Zexion kept this strategy up throughout the rest of the game and ended up winning it 3-0.

"Not fair!" Tidus shouted as he got out of the water. "You were using magic or something!"

"You never said I couldn't," Zexion replied with a sly grin.

"Where is the Mullet-head?" Xaldin demanded.

Tidus hesitated.

"Hey, man, just tell them!" Wakka squeaked. "They look like they could eat you alive! That magic or whatever is scary, man!"

"Fine." Tidus sighed. "The Mullet-head went into town a while ago. We wanted to play blitzball with him but he just ignored us."

"Where was he?" Zexion asked.

"In town. That's all I'm saying!"

"You will tell us more, or you will regret it," Xaldin growled.

"O-okay!" Tidus looked fearfully at Xaldin. "We'll lead you there!"

"Be honest. If you take us in the wrong direction, we may be forced to take... drastic measures," Zexion threatened calmly.

Tidus and Wakka both gulped simultaneously. "We'll be honest!"

The two boys ran off, with Zexion and Xaldin following behind.
