Chapter 21: True Adventure
or
The Real Adventure Starts
I woke up and got out of bed, nearly hurting myself when I twisted my back a bit too far, and walked out of the room, after getting back my shoes out of the closet near the entrance to my room.
I woke up a bit on the semi early side since everyone was there except for Tidus. I don't know what's up with him, but he keeps getting up later than all of us. In sheer boredom, I walked outside, and began to practice a bit with my sword, and then using Spin Dash. That target I spawned was destroyed after about 25 sword strikes and 17 Spin Dashes.
Soon, Auron walked outside and he spawned his own target, and he was able to use his Spin Dash about 22 times before his broke in half. I guess Spin Dashes are more powerful than sword strikes. Well, unless Auron made his target weaker than mine.
Ian came out, saw what we were doing, spawned his own target and he used his new weapon (YOUWILLDIE Weapon, using his Sonic form) on the target, destroying it in 6 hits.
Ian then tried the strength of the Mega Buster with Megaman X's form. It took 42 normal shots, and on another target, it took 15 charged shots.
Soon, everyone was outside and watching the 3 of us attacking the targets. By the time Tidus came out, we had stopped and were just waiting for him.
We soon began to head out on the Thunder Plains, but then Wakka just HAD to get hit by lighting (again). But, Lulu used another Water spell to put out the fire, and Yuna used Cure to fix the hair problems he was having. "Why is that damn hair so important anyways?" I asked Wakka after we started walking again.
"Well, it goes sorta like this ya? I..." Wakka began to rant on and on and on (2 hours later) and on about the history of his damned hair, and I ended up tail whipping him in the throat to get him to shut the up.
"Geez, I only wanted a simple answer, not an entire history lesson over your stupid hair!" I said in pure disorientaion over his history lesson on his hair style.
"Sorry, ya?" I just walked on and began to ignore the fool, and so did the group. No one ever talked to Wakka after that (in the Thunder Plains at least).
When we were about 432 (I really dunno) feet from the exit of the Plains, Yuna stopped suddenly.
"Everyone... wait." Yuna said to us.
What up?" Wakka asked. "I mean, what's up?"
"Nice..." I said laughing a bit.
"I have something to tell you." Yuna said with a bit of urgency.
"What now? I mean, look! There's a covered tower right over there!" Tidus said as he pointed over to the covered tower he mentioned.
"Let's go, before Wakka gets turned into a lighting rod... again." Auron said, and Wakka looked at the legendary-guardian-turned-echidna with a glare.
After we got over to the covered tower, Yuna began to speak again. "I've decided to marry."
At this, I glanced at Yuna. She didn't glance over to me though. "I thought so..." Lulu said as she lit a fire so that it would be a bit warmer under this cover.
Lighting hit the tower, and Rikku screamed suddenly in pure fright. 'Hey, remember my ring I gave to you Rikku? Use it." I said as I looked in her general direction, then turning back to Yuna.
"B-but why? Why'd you change your mind?" Wakka stammered in a bit of surprise, and because Rikku had just screamed in his ear.
Yuna replied, "For Spira's future...and Yevon's unity. I thought it would be the best thing to do."
"So, you're letting others tell you what to do... again." I said off-handedly.
"No, I'm doing this so the world will rejoice and will have something good to think about." She tried to defend, but that was very weak defense for her.
"In other words, you're doing it for others because you think it would make them happy." I said back.
"Wait, is it... is it because of Lord Jyscal?" Lulu inquired as she thought for a bit.
"Hey! That sphere!" Tidus said out of the blue.
"Show me." Auron demanded.
"I can't. I must speak to Maester Seymour first. I truly am sorry, but this is... It is a personal matter." Yunsa said defensively against Auron.
"You're kidding, ya?" Wakka interjected.
"As you wish." Auron finished his piece almost.
"I'm sorry." Yuna said as she looked over to me with one eye.
"Just one thing..." Auron began.
"I won't quit my pilgrimage." Yuna finished up for Auron.
"Then it is... fine." Auron said.
"One last thing. are we done yet? I think we could get going if we just stop talking about it, and the just get it over with." i said, holding back my true feelings.
"Yes, that is all Adam." Yuna said as she walked out of the cover and we all followed.
I began to think near exactly what Tidus would normally think, and a few extras. 'She says, "I'm sorry," He says, "It's fine." She's "willing" to face Sin. She's "privileged." But somehow, I feel I don't belong. But if I don't belong with them, I'll be stuck in Spira, alone. And being alone in this place, well, I don't want to think about it. Even with all of my forms I can take on, it wouldn't be the same without these guys around.'
"Next, we're going to Macalania Temple. Yuna can talk with Seymour there. We guardians will wait until they're done, and plan out next move. Understood?" Auron ordered us and we began to walka bit faster to get out of the Thunder Plains.

"Hey, guys. I need to think about something for a second, I'll catch up in about 5 minutes." I said as I stopped suddenly. Auron nodded, and he walked away, and the group loooked at me for a few more seconds, and then they followed the guardian of a legendary past.
I walked around for a bit, deciding to think about everything so far. 'Okay, so what exactly have I learned so far? I know now that I'm really the son of Cloud Strife, and also that Sephiroth is after me at least. Probably there are more after me back in my real home, but Sephiroth's the most important to get off of me. I also know now that If I summon up stuff without using an object already on this place, I can't unsummon them without direct contact. That's the reason I can change my sword back to its normal form without it staying that way. And, that's really all I know so far. Not too much, but enough for now.'
Just then, I saw the air around me go blank and I reappeared in Bahamut's realm of fire lit rooms. "Adam." The fayth said as he walked next to me. "We have a problem. The real reason you were brought to this place in tghe first place. You weren't here for no reason. We can't send you home until this is done."
"Well, helps if you tell me what the hell it is you want me to do, right?" I said with a grin.
"You do know of Shuyin, right?" I nodded slightly. "Well, you remember how he's the one who was wanting to destroy the planet with the weapon Vegnagun?" I nodded again. "Well, he's now also got something else with him. But, he hasn't gotten it to Spira yet. The real reason we sent you here was to protect this world from him, and he's got another weapon for himself. ARK."
My eyes went wide. "How the hell'd he get THAT?" I shouted.
"We don't know. All we know also is that he's also got 6 jewels of great power... the-"
"Chaos Emeralds." I finished for Bahamut. "But, he needs the 7th also, doesn't he?"
"Yes, and we know exactly where it is. The final Emerald is inside of Sin. Shuying can't get to it yet since he's got the ARK on its way over to this planet. It'll be here in 5 days, and he can get it fully charged without that last Emerald in 2 days. He found a way to get the Eclipse Cannon fully charged without all 7 Chaos Emeralds. You have exactly one week to finish beating Sin and to disable the Cannon on the ARK before Shuyin fires the Cannon at the planet." Bahamut said with an edge of hurriedness in it.

The realm disappeared, and I found a beeping device in my pocket. I pulled it out and it read 6 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 47 seconds and it was going down. I put the watch mountable device on my watch, and it flashed light, and the watch gained a button on it to change over to that timer. I hurried up and ran to the group that was now only a bit ahead. "Hey, that wasn't 5 minutes, ya?" Wakka noted as I caught up.
"We've got bad news. VERY bad news." I said frantically.
