---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the last few days I helped with the airship, it was looking better as the days past. I was now checking all the machina inside it with Keyakku and Brother.
"I have great news for you, Brother,"my pops said, as he entered the airship.
"What is it, Vydran?"Brother asked.
"Your gonna pilot this thing when we get it up and running,"Pops announced. My eyes widened, he was actually gonna let Brother pilot!
"Oh no we're doomed,"I teased, nudging Brother. Brother just shook his head and thanked our Pops, then ran to where the bridge was. Keyakku and I followed. I was amazed that it wasn't to bad of shape for being under water for awhile. Brother was in the pilot seat admiring all the controls. I went down to another control panel and started tinkering with it. Suddenly the airship shook making me lose my balance and fall over.
"Rikku! What did you do?!"Brother questioned, looking back at me.
"I-I don't know,"I said, getting up.
"What do you mean you don-,"Brother started, but Keyakku interrupted.
"Look."
He pointed to some sphere that popped up. I got up and went over to it.
"What do you think it does?"I asked, scratching my cheek in thought.
"Who knows maybe your father knows,"Keyakku said, leaving the bridge. I went to touch the sphere with just my finger.
"Rikku, don't tinker with it!"Brother exclaimed.
"C'mon if we don't tinker around this machinery we'll never know how they work,"I said, rolling my eyes.
"Don't make me hit you with a thunder spell,"Brother said.
"You wouldn't dare!"I exclaimed, clenching my fists.
"Oh yes I would now back off it,"Brother said. I glared at him and walked back over to the controls that made the sphere pop up. Pops came in and examined the sphere.
"What control brought this up?"he asked. I pointed to the one I was working with. Pops nodded and started typing some things in.
"Ah It's a sphere-o-cilla-finder,"Pops said.
"What is a-,"I started, but Pops put up a finger.
"Don't worry about it right now I want you and Keyakku to head to the Moonflow..Yuna is in the Temple of Djose right now,"he said.
"Right-o!"I exclaimed. Keyakku nodded and we left the bridge. "Ha, I bet he doesn't even know what it does,"I snorted.
"Yeah probably,"Keyakku said, with a chuckle. We then got into the aqua drone and headed to the moonflow.
It had been a few hours since we arrived in the moonflow. I was bored and Keyakku was still watching for Yuna and them.
"They here yet I'm bored!"I whined.
"No, Rikku, be patient,"Keyakku said.
"That's like impossible for me and you know that!"I exclaimed. Keyakku looked at me and gave me the most evil look. "Hey! Don't give me that look and plus your supposed to be watching for Yuna and them."
Keyakku shook his head and kept watch while I sat back in the seat, being bored.
"Well lucky you their here!"Keyakku exclaimed, jumping up.
"Well what are you waiting for go,"I urged, getting my hands on the controls again. Keyakku nodded and ran off. A minute later Keyakku was back with Yuna with him.
"They followed me so get ready for battle,"Keyakku said. I nodded and looked at my cousin. She just stood there like a statue with her staff at hand. She was quite pretty...bio colored eyes, light skin, and almost shoulder length brown hair. I smiled, putting my hands back on the controls. I looked out and couldn't believe what I saw.
'He's alive!'I thought, smiling to myself. It was Tidus and some red head(or was it orange), but who cared HE was alive!!!
"Rikku, concentrate!"
"Ohhh sorry."
I barely made it out of the aqua drone in time and I hoped Keyakku was ok, but something told me that he was ok so I didn't worry about it as I lay on the shore, gasping for air. Soon I heard footsteps and looked up to see Tidus walking. He must of not noticed me cause he started walking across the bridge.
"Wait up ya big meanie!"I managed to exclaim. I rested my head back down on the ground, I was still quite dizzy. He kneeled next to me and asked, "Your not dead?"
I suddenly felt my energy come back and I jumped up. I started unstrapping my armor then throwing it back. I unzipped my suit and started wiggling out of it as Tidus gapped at me. I then pulled off my mask and gave a sigh of relief.
"Thought I was done for back there,"I said, before falling to my hands and knees.
"Rikku! Your Rikku! Heyyy how ya been?"Tidus said, kneeing in front of me again.
"Terrible...,"I replied.
"Ya you don't look so good what happened?"
"You beat me up remember!"I exclaimed poking him, making him fall back.
"What? That machina..that was you!"he said, sounding surprised. I nodded and stood up holding my head.
"That really hurt ya know..ya big meanie,"I said, scratching my cheek.
"Wait you attacked us,"he said in defense.
"Nu-uh its not what you think,"I replied. Then somebody shouted a 'Hey'. It was the red head from before.
"Whose this a friend of yours?"
"I guess you can say that,"Tidus said, rubbing the back of his head.
"I'm Rikku pleased to meet you!"I exclaimed.
"Lulu, Yuna I told you about her right. She was the one that helped me before I washed up on Besaid! She's an Al Bhe...beh..,"he stopped then Lulu and Yuna gasped.
"Oh so you like, owe her your life, ya? What luck meeting here. Praise be to Yevon,"the one called Wakka said, bowing. "So uhh...Rikku...You look a little beat up-"
"Uh Wakka,"Lulu interrupted.
"Hmm?"Wakka questioned.
"There's something we need to discuss,"Yuna said, politely.
"Oh ok go ahead,"he said, dumbfounded.
"Girls only boys please wait over there!"I exclaimed.
"Yeah sorry Wakka,"Lulu said. We went off and they asked me questions and I answered. Yuna had asked if I wanted to be her guardian and I agreed right away.
"Right I'll go ask Sir Auron,"Yuna said, walking over to Sir Auron. I can't believe I was meeting him again!
"Sir Auron, I would like Rikku to be my guardian,"Yuna said, softly. Auron walked over to me and I looked down. I didn't want him to know I was an Al Bhed but I had a feeling he already did.
"Show me your face,"he said.
"Huh?"I asked, I wasn't paying attention.
"Look at me,"he commanded.
"Oh ok,"I said, looking up with my eyes closed.
"Open your eyes."
I did, feeling my face become warm as I stared at him. Something about Sir Auron made my heart skip a beat. Maybe it was his appearance..how he wore the red cloak, the weird thing covering most of his face, and the scar. I looked at his brown eye now, it was gorgeous I could get lost in eyes like that. There was just something sexy about him I wasn't quite sure what it was sure not the gray in his black hair that much I know...maybe it was just the mystery behind him. Auron suddenly chuckled, which brought me back to reality. "As I thought,"he thought.
I wasn't sure what he meant, but I replied anyways.
"No good?"I asked, feeling embarrassed.
"Are you certain?"he asked.
"A hundred percent...so anyways can I?"I asked, smiling.
"If Yuna wishes it."
"I do,"Yuna said, smiling.
"Then it is fine,"Auron said, walking away. I heard Wakka groan then Tidus said, "Rikku's a good girl..she helped me a bunch."
I smiled, he was defending me!
"Well I'm for it the more the merrier!"Wakka exclaimed.
"Mmhmm..then I'll just have to be the merriest!"I exclaimed then went off saying Rikku at your service and some other crap like that. We then headed to Guadosalm, on the way I showed them my awesome skills...which Wakka and Tidus were amazed by.
"Well Tidus, Wanna carry me the rest of the way..hmmm?"I asked, grabbing his arm and leaning my head on his shoulder.
"Nope,"Tidus said, smiling.
I frowned. "Why not?"I asked.
"'Cause there's no lazyness allowed!"he exclaimed, poking my nose.
"Eh...fine,"I said, letting go of his arm. I then slowed my pace a bit so now I was walking next to Sir Auron. "Hi,"I perked up.
"What do you want?"he asked, not looking at me.
"Nothing just wanted to say hi,"I said, smiling.
"Ok you made your peace, now are you leaving?" We soon arrived in Guadosalm where we were greeted by a guy with green hair that was sticking up all over the place.
"We have been expecting you, Lady Yuna. Welcome to Guadosalm. This way please,"the man said, reaching out to Yuna.
"Me?"Yuna questioned
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!"Wakka exclaimed, grabbing the man's arm.
"Oh I beg you pardon..I am called Tromell Guado, I'm in the direct service of our leader, the great Seymour Guado. Lord Seymour has business with Lady Yuna,"Tromell said, bowing.
"Business with me? Whatever could it be, I wonder?" Yuna thought aloud.
"Please, come inside the manor...all will be explained. Of course your friends are also welcome,"Tromell said, heading off to the manor. Everybody followed.
"Twist our arms why don't ca,"I said, putting my hands behind my head as I walked. Then I remembered something and turned around to look at Tidus. "Ah, I almost forgot."
I showed him how to customize equipment, he picked up on it pretty quick. "What would you do with out me?"I said, then ran off towards the manor to see what the "Great" Lord Seymour Guado wanted.
a/n cutting this chapter short 'cause I don't think I could fit the whole Guadosalm scene in the rest of this..I'll have the next chapter up ASAP. Hope it wasn't terrible... . R&R. And I told you there was gonna be a lot of different couplings even the infamous Aurikku. I like this couple in some way, but there will still be Tikku and some other things lol.
