A/N: Welcome back, to another chapter of 'It Begins' xD though the first 3 chapters were written by me, as a 12/13 year old... oh whatever, it's old! XD ONWARDS! I do not own FFX or any of the characters, I just own Zari. XD TY! Hope this is okay ^^ Read, enjoy, and please, review? I'd really like to hear anything from you guys.
So the big ugly fishie had knocked me off the boat, though I hadn't expected it to be as violent and painful as it had. And to land right in the grasps of a sinspawn. AHHH. How demented. I really couldn't fully understand why such evil like this existed. Wait. Of course it did. Why would it not?
By the way, this was a great time for my nausea to come back in full swing, the water around me floating off in the waves of the ocean, quietly polluted by the fact that I had unwittingly throw away whatever I had devoured in the past twenty four hours. Not pleasing. Wakka had casted me a worried glance then looked away in horror, utterly repulsed by the fact that I could actually get seasick. On the sea. Really?
I felt much better after that, though also very weak, and another blender attack from the sinspawn didn't help me feel any better. Seeing the potion floating into my general direction, I grabbed at it quickly, wondering how to actually drink the crazy concoction without losing any of it in the sea.
Hmm...
Problem solved! I stuck the entire top of the potion into my mouth, pulling at the cork with my back teeth until it eased out, and the fluid channeled down my throat, earning a good choking from me, being unsuspecting victim to another disgusting concoction of life. GAH!
That's it! I growled, swimming backwards slightly, avoiding the attack from the sinspawn, and waving to Wakka, I covered my eyes with one hand and pointed to the sinspawn, hoping he got what I meant about blinding it.
No… of course he didn't get it, the red haired blitzer looking at me with a puzzled look before moving along to attack it, Tidus as well. What did I look like, insane?! Swimming over to Wakka, I hit him with my sword, growling a little, covering my eyes again and pointing to the fiend, then him, and then back at the fiend. I couldn't exactly talk underwater so this was just a pain in my ass. As the blitzer finally seemed to get the picture, I couldn't've been happier, until a piranha decided to take a large chunk out of my leg. Wakka unwittingly stared at the water around my leg turning into a red color, and I found myself hoping that sharks weren't a common thing in Spira. Otherwise, I'd be swimming for my life out of this water.
After however much beating the three of us took, the piranha's seeming to take mercy on those two men, just swim into them, and take chunks out of my flesh, the sinspawn was finally beaten down to nothing more than a dirty pulp, and frankly, I couldn't've been more glad. I bet that if I had a counter of HP, I would be down to maybe one half… to one HP left. I felt really shitty, and Tidus and Wakka played the role of feeling shitty far better than I ever could.
After Tidus and Wakka were thoroughly taken care of, I had tried to slink off to go downstairs and sleep, but the infamous evil of Tidus stopped me, grabbing me by the back of my clothes and dragging me back towards Yuna. Looking up at her, I blinked, staring for a moment before smiling as if I were just some innocent child, not some devious girl who had been standing around yelling for Sin to show himself. Oh right, and had called Sin, Jecht. Yeah, if I didn't look a little crazy by now, then later I probably would be close to struck down because of random yellings. Just remembering the fiends in Luca plagued my mind. Not that I didn't want to see Anima but I knew that the entire deal with Seymour saving the people of Luca was a horrible illusion that Yuna wouldn't be able to see passed.
After Yuna had healed me, i did retreat to the lower decks of the boat, lying down on a bed as I thought over and over what had happened during the fight against Sin. FIrst of all, I had casted magic. Second of all, one was Hastega. I could've probably been okay with just casting haste, but it was Hastega. And third of all, I had cast a multiple level one spell, and I didn't know how. Hell, I didn't even remember anyone in the game casting it other than Seymour...I still wondered if it was some sort of guado thing. Only the guado seemed to do something of that sort, casting multi-spells. And I was still fully convinced that Seymour could kill us all without a second thought at the beginning. Multi-Flare or Ultima and we would've been dead, asap. Was that even possible now? I didn't know but.... Yawning, I realized that I was starting to slip off in my thoughts.
"Zari!" Jumping at the sound of my name, I lurched forward, looking around slightly before flopping backward onto the bed, just shaking my head drowsily, not even responding to the footsteps of the blonde blitzer approaching me, though as soon as I felt a pair of arms shoot under my back and knees, I squirmed, before flailing as he picked me up, though as before, I easily succumbed to drowsiness.
And a little more than that I found out, hearing Tidus's voice and Lulu's, and may I say, also the ever so eerie sound of the Fayth's song. "Fayth..." I grumbled, rubbing my head against my resting place before I suddenly realized that my heaed was resting on something. Opening my eyes, I found a bunch of bright yellow right in front of my eyes, and I scowled a little. "Tidusssss..." I grumbled, reaching a hand up to grab at his shoulder and push him away, but I found I didn't quite have the energy to do so, and the blonde blitzer seemed to have sensed this, shifting me slightly.
"Welcome back, Zari," slowly pulling my gaze up to the blitzer, I watched as he glanced down at me, then with his eyes, he gestured to the lower dock, where Yuna was slowly was beginning to walk out onto the waters.
"Water walking..." I mumbled, half out of my mind, then it suddenly hit me like a brick. "Oh.... the sending..."
"What's a sending?" he questioned, and before Lulu could even look at him, I answered.
"It's basically guiding the dead to the Farplane. If they're not sent, they'll resent the living and become fiends that prey upon the living." the blonde blitzer looked like he had to struggle a bit to hear me. "By performing a Sending, the souls are calmed, accepting their death and going to the Farplane." That last part I wasn't sure, but I knew that if souls that were angered by the fact they died, a sending couldn't just send them there, I figured that some sort of calming and coming to terms with their death had to be involved.
And again I could feel myself just lulling in the dabbling unconsciousness that was hanging around so thickly. Why was I so damn tired? I coudn't even begin to think, and the last thing I saw for the rest of the night was Yuna on the tower of water, the pyreflies dancing around her.
A/N: Yepp... so.. that was it... for now... and... yeah... mwahaha. XD Review please ^^ I'd love it! And nowwwwww... A SNEAK PREVIEW OF THE NEXT CHAPTER!
"There were no more beds." the drowsy voice behind me revealed that my screech of horror had woken the blonde blitzer up. Not that I really cared. "Even with Kimahri sleeping outside, the inn was a bed short. Wakka suggested that since you and I are 'siblings' that we should share a bed, and that it shouldn't be a big deal." I was actually amazed that he had managed to sound intelligent while so drowsy. "So stop screaming please." Releasing me, he rolled over, and I bolted right off the bed, scampering over to the other side of the room, and jumped again upon hearing a bit of rolling laughter come from the door.
