A/n SO SORRY WELL I FOUND TIME TODAY TO WRITE IT SO HERE WE GO AND I'll have another chappie up next week alright!!! Hope I didn't lose my reviewers o.O. Well here we go...
"Mmmmm mmmmm,"I said, with my mouth full of food. "This is gooddd."
Tidus chuckled. "You're a cutie, you know that?"
"I know,"I said with a wide grin.
"So what do you think this is about?"
"I don't know but its exciting!"I exclaimed, before popping another fruit in my mouth. Tidus smiled then walked over to talk to Yuna. I sighed then bounced over to Auron for a moment.
"What's up? Fruit?"I asked, offering him a fruit.
"No thanks,"he grunted, two seconds later.
"Otay,"I said, taking a bite out of the fruit. "Why are you so quite?"
"Its none of your business,"was his only reply. I laughed then got on my tip toes to become eye level with him.
"What if I want it to be my business hmm?"
He just gave me a cold stare and turned his head away from me. "Okay suit yourself,"I said, bouncing back over to the table for more food. I had a huge appetite! I couldn't help myself...
A door opened and Tromell appeared again.
"Truly its good to have guests again,"he said, chuckling. "Since Lord Jyscal passed away these hall have been too quiet."
"Lord Jyscal's death was a lose to all of Spria,"Yuna said, folding her hands together.
"Truly a lose for us all,"Tromell said, walking towards Wakka and Tidus. "But now a new leader, Lord Seymour has come before us. Lord Seymour is a child of a Guado and a human. He'll be the tie that binds our two races.., but that is not all I think. Lord Seymour will surely become the shining star that lights the way for all the peoples of Spria..."
Oh my god does he ever shut up.
"That is enough Tromell,"Seymour said, walking across the room.
THANK YOU!!!!!! I felt like exclaiming as I turned to see him. "Must I always endure such praise?"Seymour asked Tromell then turned his attention to us. "Welcome." He did the prayer and Yuna walked in front of him.
"You wanted to see me?"Yuna asked politely.
"Please make yourselves at home there's no rush."
I agree gives us more time with Yunie...I thought, but then Auron ruined that by saying..
"Please keep this short, Yuna must rush,"Auron complained.
"Pardon me...,"Seymour said, bowing. "Its been a long time since I had guests."
"Lady Yuna this way.."
Yuna stepped up nervously and we followed him into some sphere thing and stars started appear beneath us. I jumped onto Tidus afraid I would fall.
"Relax,"Tidus whispered, putting me back down. I apologized and admired the things that were popping up. The lights entertained me so I jumped up to see if I could grab one. It didn't work to well, but I still was determined to feel it.
"This sphere is a reconstruction created by the thoughts of the dead that wander the Farplane,"Seymour exclaimed. Oh I see!
I looked down to see a glorious city filled with lights, it amazed me to no point. Then I couldn't help but wonder what my mom was thinking. I still missed her and I wished she was still here with me, my brother, and my pop. I only dwelled on the thought of her for a moment before going back to admiring the sites.
"Zanarkand?"I heard Tidus question as people walked by us.
"Correct Zanarkand as it looked a thousand years ago,"Seymour said. I wondered what it would be like to live in a place like that. It looks like a lot of fun!
"She once lived in this metropolis,"Seymour exclaimed.
"She who?"Yuna asked. Suddenly we were in some ones bed room and I couldn't help but run over to the vanity set. There was a lot of nice things that I wanted, and as a thief I was going to still it. But alas I couldn't even grab anything, I'd just go through it. I blocked out the rest of what Seymour said then I noticed somebody appearing in the mirror so I had to look back to see them. It was some armored guy that walked straight through Yuna to embrace Yunalesca. I admired her beuti, but found her attire to be quite sluty. I blinked then noticed we were back in the room with the food...YUMMY!!!! Yuna looked disturbed as she walked back to us. She looked down and I kneeled down so I could get a closer view of her face.
"Wow your face is beet red!"I exclaimed.
"Are you ok?"Tidus asked, concerned. Yuna held her face in her hands then looked at Seymour then back at us.
"He...He asked me to marry him,"Yuna stuttered.
"You serious?"Tidus asked, wide eyed. "Hey!"
"You know what Yuna must do,"Auron said, glaring at Seymour.
"Of course. Lady Yuna...no all summoners are charged to bring peace to Spria, but this means more then defeating Sin. She must ease the suffering of all Spria, she must be a leader for the people"
That's a lot of responsibility...
"I proposed to Lady Yuna as a Maester of Yevon,"Seymour explained.
"Spria isn't a play house,"Auron said, cooly. "A moments diversion will amuse an audience, but it changes nothing."
"Even so,"Seymour said, tilting his head to look at Auron. "The actors have to play their part."
My jaw dropped slightly. Yevons a mess...wait I already knew that! Stupid Yevonites..
"There's no need to answer right away, please think it over,"Seymour said, gently to Yuna.
"We'll do so then...we leave,"Auron said, as he started to walk away. I giggled he was anxious to get out of there..well I was too I was sooo bored!
"Lady Yuna! I wait your favorable reply,"Seymour said. Everyone started heading out, but I wanted to grab some more food before leaving so I hung around.
"Why are you still here sir?"Seymour asked.
Auron stopped in his tracks. I got confused as did Tidus as he looked from Seymour to Auron. "I beg your pardon, but us Guado are kine to the sent of the Farplane,"Seymour apologized. I wonder what he meant and I looked at Auron. Tidus had walked over to Auron and started smelling him. Auron pushed him away and I couldn't help but laugh. Without further ado I picked up some fruit and ran out. We formed a group outside the building around Yuna.
"Yuna a high summoners daughter. Seymour leader of the Guado..married in the name of Yevon. Over coming the barrier of race...It would give Spria something cheery to talk about for a change,"Lulu thought out loud.
"Sounds like a passing day dream like Auron said,"Wakka said, hanging his head to the side in thought. I wondered what was going through Yuna head at the moment...
"C'mon..,"Tidus whined. "Lets get on with the pilgrimage...I mean marriage?"
I giggled. "Hmmm Jealous?" I asked, playfully.
"What? NO WAY! We got to defeat Sin...Romance can wait,"he said defensively. My heart dropped...he liked her. He liked her a lot.
"He sure picked a fine time to lay one on us,"Wakka sighed.
Yuna finally spoke up. "Maybe it is a fine time."
We all looked at her in disbelief.
"You serious?"Tidus asked, wide eyed.
"If my getting married would help Spria..If it would make people happy..If I could do that for people then maybe I should do what I can. I never imagined doing anything like this, but I won't answer till I know what's right,"Yuna said.
"Seriously?"Tidus asked.
I bent down, thinking I could finally talk Yuna out of the pilgrimage. "You could always quit the pilgrimage and get married."
Yuna just laughed and said, "I will go on...I'm sure Lord Seymour will understand."
"I guess so,"I said, getting to my feet, feeling disappointed.
"I am a summoner. I must fight and defeat Sin,"Yuna said.
"Like Braska before you?"Auron asked. Yuna nodded. I looked at Tidus, he looked so upset..I kinda felt bad for him, but at the same time I felt my heart breaking slightly.
"I'm going to the Farplane. I'm going to see my father and think on this,"Yuna said, getting to her feet.
"Go on then..we're right behind you,"Lulu said, gently. Yuna nodded and with that we headed up to the Farplane. Once we were there Tidus automatically got a question for us.
"Question! About this Farplane..When a somebody dies a summoner sends them to the Farplane right? So their souls..or whatever they are...they go to the Farplane? But that's the Farplane we're going to right? and Yuna's old man's there to? Do dead people live their or something? Hmmm?"Tidus questioned, getting lost in thought. I laughed as he started to shiver.
"You having those funny thoughts again, ya?"Wakka asked. Tidus just laughed and rubbed his head. Lulu sighed and Wakka said, "You'll see once we get there."
Everyone started heading up, I just stood where I was wondering if I should go or stay. I shook my head trying to decide then I heard Tidus ask Auron if he was coming.
"I don't belong there..,"he said. I scratched my cheek in thought. Tidus laughed and said, "Your scared."
I highly doubt that Sir Auron is scared Tidus, but I wouldn't blame him...you don't know what you going to see beyond the barrier to the Farplane.
I finally came to a decision and I started walking. I came to a stop as soon as Auron said something that made think
"Searching the past to find the future...this is all that is there I need it not,"He said, not looking at Tidus.
Very poetic..nice.
"You better be going,"Auron said, waving his hand at Tidus.
"Your not really going to see the dead..more like your memories of them. People think of their relatives and the pryeflies react to them. They take on the form of the dead person..an illusion nothing else.
"Hmm..."
"Well have fun,"I said, waving.
"What? Your not going either Rikku?"Tidus asked.
"I keep my memories inside,"I said, holding my hands over my heart.
"Huh?"
"Memories are nice, but that's all they are,"I said, turning away from him. Tidus just nodded and ran off. I sat down with a fruit at hand and started at it. I felt Auron's eyes on me.
"What?"I asked, leaning back to look at him. He just shook his head. "What?"I asked again, jumping to my feet.
"Nothing, Rikku, sit back down,"he ordered. I walked over to him and put my hands on my hips. He stared coldly at me for the longest time and I glared at him, I wasn't letting this go. Then he surprised me when he laughed and smiled.
"Wow that's new,"I said, smiling myself. He didn't say anything more just continued to share my gaze. I started laughing and I fell on my ass. When I looked back up at him he had his eyebrow arched at me. "I'm sorry,"I said, standing back up. "I couldn't help it."
He just shrugged. "C'mon talk to me I'm bored,"I pouted.
"What's there to talk about?"Auron asked.
"Anything..just say anything!"
"Anything.."
"Yes anything!"I exclaimed, folding my arms. Auron chuckled. I smacked him realizing he was being a smart ass. I grumbled something and sat back down on the ledge with another fruit.
"Cid's daughter right?"Auron asked. I nodded, still a little mad about my blond moment. "I met you before."
"Yeah, I delivered that package to you,"I said.
"No, before that,"Auron said.
"I don't think-"
"Of course you wouldn't remember you were five,"Auron said, smiling. I blushed realizing how old he really was.
"Erm...um.. what brought that up?"I stuttered.
"Just making a conversation that you wanted so much,"he replied. I rolled my eyes and continued eating the fruit in my hands.
"I'm sorry,"he said suddenly.
"Huh?"I asked, looking back at him. "For what?"
"I don't have much to say..,"Auron said. I shrugged.
"Its alright I have something to ask,"I said, switching my position so I was facing him now.
"What?"
"Why you in such a hurry to finish this pilgrimage? Why are you so determined to send my cousin to her death?"I asked, biting my lip. He sighed and looked at the ground.
"It's complicated,"he replied. I had to bit my lip to keep myself from blowing up in his face.
"Tell me why,"I commanded, trying to keep control over my emotions.
"I told Braska I'd take care of her..,"he said.
"Sending her to her death isn't taking care of her!"I yelled, jumping to my feet. My fists and teeth were clenched. He shook his head. I took in a deep breath to calm myself down. I sat back down on the ledge. I heard him sigh then I looked back at him.
"I'm sorry.."
He just shook his head and smiled faintly. After awhile I finally was in a better mood and I played catch with myself while Auron just stood behind me waiting for the others to come back.
"Hey thanks for waiting..I'm gonna go give Lord Seymour my answer now,"Yuna said, as they walked towards us. I jumped up and smiled, wondering what she decided on.
"Ah Lord Jyscal,"a guado said. I looked up in horror to see Jyscal.
"He does not belong here,"Auron said.
"Why?"Yuna asked.
"Yuna, send him,"Auron commanded. Yuna nodded then I heard grunting sounds behind me. She ran up to him.
"Lord Jyscal,"Yuna said.
"He is Jyscal no more...send him,"Lulu said. Yuna did what she was told and sent him, falling to her knees afterwards. I looked back to see Auron standing back up.
"You ok?"I mouthed at him. He nodded then said, "Talk later..leave now."
"What..what just happened just now? That really Lord Jyscal?"Wakka asked.
"I don't understand like a man like Lord Jyscal can die and not be sent,"Yuna said, confused.
"I would think that he was sent once, but he stayed on Spria. Something.. A powerful emotion could of bound him to this world..such things happen,"Lulu explained.
"But that's against the rules isn't it?"I asked clueless.
"It means he died an unclean death,"Auron explained to me. I nodded and we headed down to the Maester's place.
"I will go meet with Maester Seymour,"Yuna said, turning to go inside.
"Yuna! Jyscal is the Guado's problem not yours,"Auron explained to her. She nodded slightly before heading in. Tidus started heading up the hill.
"Wait up I'll go with ya!"I exclaimed, following him.
"Yunie's not getting married is she?"I asked, out of curiosity.
"Seems that way..,"he said.
"It's your big chance, huh?"I asked, elbowing him.
"I'd rather have you, Rikku,"He said.
"OH!"I said, feeling the blood run up to my cheeks. "H-honest?"
I giggled feeling so embarrassed. I started hitting him as punishment.
"Oh ouch..ow ow,"Tidus whined, trying to protect himself. I stopped hitting him
"See ya!"I said, jumping down. He stared at me.
"Maybe someday!"I exclaimed before running off. I knew he didn't really mean it even though I didn't wanna admit it. He liked Yuna and I couldn't help but feel hurt that he toyed with me like that. I sat on some ledge again for awhile before Tidus showed up.
"Say, ever think about gettin' married?"I asked, jumping up once more.
"Me? No never,"he replied, giving me a confused look. I put my finger to my cheek and smiled for a brief moment.
"I think about it a lot,"I said. Ha ya I used to want to get married to Gippal...my dad would love that he loves Gippal, but I'm not sure if I do.
"Aren't you a little young?"Tidus asked.
"Some people marry really young in Spira, you know,"I said, resting my hand on my hip.
"You mean people our age get married?"Tidus asked, raising his brow.
"Yeah, Fiends are around and there's always Sin right? One of them might get you, you know? Lots of people marry the first person they fall in love with, just like that!"I explained, doing weird hand motions.
"Really?"
"I'll probably be the same way,"I said, folding my hands together. We sat in silence for a few minutes then I asked, "You an only child?"
"Yeah"
"I got an older brother, myself."
"Huh"
"I wish I had some younger brothers and sisters though."
"So ask your parents.."
I bowed my head then looked at him again. "Mom died...A machina went on rampage.."I said trying not to cry.
"I'm sorry."
"When I get married. I'm gonna have lots of kids! That way they'll all have brothers and sisters!"I said, bouncing up. I noticed Tidus had his head bowed and he stared at the ground. "What?"
"You're really thinking about your future, aren't you? That's great."
"It's pretty normal I think,"I said, trying to figure out what he's thinking. "Hey maybe Yuna's back!"
I exclaimed running down the hill.
A/n well that's all I'm gonna write for this chappie cause I don't think I can fit anymore..so R&R and I will write!
