The walk to the Chamber of The Fayth seemed a lot shorter when the boy showed up to meet Remora. The room was a bit dark yet gold shined in the middle of it. Remora stared at it for a long moment before realizing that it seemed too quiet inside the chamber. She turned all around to find that the boy had vanished and was no longer with her, almost as though he was just an illusion that only came to guide her.

"Where did he go?"

"Right here."

Remora turned around, and she didn't see anything at first but after a second or two the same boy appeared slowly floating above the middle of the room, and was more transparent than before.

"You're a Fayth?" Remora asked surprised.

"I am. Now then, Remora, I think you came here for assistance."

Remora was going to ask if he had any idea how she got inside Bevelle when she was last at Macalania, but it was a spirit for reasoning and teaming with, and possibly no other reason.

"Yes. As much as I know Spira's in danger, I think I've gotten myself into trouble as well."

"Ah, yes. People think you're a traitor now."

"But I'm not. They wouldn't understand why I did...what I did."

"Out of all of those people that doubt you now, only a selected few will be greatly concerned for your future. Those are the ones who will take the time to listen to your reason for the hostility towards a powerful maester."

This made Remora more comfortable with herself, since she wouldn't just attack anyone for the heck of it and always have her reasons.

"I am more at ease from hearing this."

"You should be. It is our mission to make sure our master is at ease."

"But...I'm not your master yet." Remora replied, slightly confused. The boy had raised his head a little and Remora could have sworn he saw one of his eyes for a moment, but the top of his head was completely shadowed by his hood.

"I can see your concern and I will gladly offer my assistance to you. For you are young, and I can imagine that back in your home, life has been kind to you."

Remora thought about his words. They weren't entirely true; life's not always kind, but she was young, and people have from time to time have given her a few words of advice due to both of those facts.

"You will learn."

Remora smiled a little at the boy's last few words before he had vanished, and the gold tiling on the floor in the middle of the chamber began to glow and the rest of the room had darkened to the point where Remora couldn't see anything, not even herself. But the gold from the middle of the floor began to show again, and became numerous ribbons of gold coming out of the floor as the flow of their energy radiated. Despite Remora didn't see her figure, she saw the glowing ribbons beginning to encircle her, and it was a warm feeling at first, but then she didn't know how to describe the rest of the sensation. It was indescribable, yet satisfying; she didn't know what to call it, but didn't mind, as long as the feeling was comforting. The moment was different than what she felt at Macalania Temple obviously since not all aeons were the same, so each had their own touch of elements. Remora's vision had suddenly gotten blurred but immediately cleared up again once the ribbons vanished, and the Chamber of The Fayth became visible again. The boy no longer appeared in front of her, and she immediately knew that she claimed his aeon. A name had slowly appeared in her head.

Bahaumut

It was the name of the aeon she just retrieved, and she knew it would do her good. Still facing forward she backed up a little from the room until she felt that she was in a hallway again.

"But how do I get out of here?"

"You can't." Said a sharp voice. A voice that should have been ridded of her thoughts forever. Remora was stiff for a moment, but then quickly turned around to see the man behind her. Same blue hair, same outfit, same grimly smirk.

"You're supposed to be dead." Remora said quietly, keeping her distance from him, but Seymour only approached her so they'd be in same distance.

"Dead? No dear, I'm afraid not. I am simply unsent. I will continue to roam Spira until the opposite is upon me."

But Remora then remembered something. She still had the ability to send the dead to the farplane. While Seymour was here she could have a chance at sending him with no interruptions. She began to reach for her staff, but he continued to speak.

"But unfortunately for you, you won't be able to send me. After all, you have an important wedding to attend. You wouldn't want to crash one of those, would you? You already put yourself in a lot of trouble from what I've heard."

Remora's hand froze. "What wedding? Yuna rejected you, remember?!"

"Indeed she did, but I think she had a change of heart." He replied grimly. Remora grimaced at the satisfaction in his tone. The hall was slightly darkened, but she heard his approaching footsteps and his face became clearer. He looked exactly the same from when he was 'alive'. "But I've got something else planned for you."

"What if I refuse?" Remora replied, failing at holding her grudges.

"Well for one, you'd be putting your friends at risk, let alone your own life. But yours won't end just yet."

Remora had her back to the walls. She desperately wanted to take out her rod and just send him away, but she knew Seymour too well. He was very quick with the consequences, and she hated that deeply about him.

"What makes me so special? So what if I'm a summoner? Why would you hurt the others rather than me?"

Seymour walked up to her close to the point that their bodies almost touched. Remora scrunched her eyes feeling his finger force her chin back, and she didn't want to look him in the eye any longer. But it felt as though that when he squeezed the tip of her chin, a sudden jolt had forced her to open her eyes, and Seymour's face was looking down at hers.

"Because since I'm the one that got you involved into most of what you've been through so far, you're my responsibility. You're like a daughter to me."

"Stop it. I don't get it. Fang told me what you were planning all along, and I no longer trust you. Why do you still continue to brainwash me?!"

"I'm only speaking through your instincts, Remora. You wanted this to happen. You wanted to see me one last time, despite that you now know that I was planning on killing you all along. You still care about me." At that he grabbed both of her arms forcefully, ignoring her frightened expression, and lowered his face to fervently press his lips to hers. It felt so wrong to her. She wanted him to stop. He was supposed to love Yuna, and yet that was wrong too. Everything about Seymour was just wrong. Remora felt her face heat up a little; she felt her entire body heat up. She wished he would just die. After a long moment, his face parted from hers and she looked away to the side. One of his hands went back to his side but the other stayed clutched to her arm yet slipped down to her wrist.

"Come. You need appropriate attire."

Everyone was only halfway heading back the way they came. They needed to leave now, from what Rikku said. Rikku and Fang were still in the lead for directions, even though it was the first time Fang ever saw Home. Wakka seemed to be the only one really thinking about where she was going to take the group next, and they were all at the point going up a staircase in what looked like a really dark attic that hasn't been used in a while. From what her older brother announced, they had to destroy Home, due to the fact that it was overrun with Guado and hundreds of thousands of fiends. They all went through a door that seemed to open on its own when the group approached it. They all turned their eyes toward Rikku for their next move.

"Come on." She had nodded her head forward to show her direction also.

"Um, how exactly are we going to get out of here?" Fang asked curiously. Rikku looked at her from the side and smiled giddily.

"We're going to fly." She said. The group walked through a little hallway that was lighted up with neon lights, and apparently a lot of people were already onboard. It took a long walk before they finally reached the main bridge, where possibly the captain and co-captain were. The guy with all the ink on his body that attacked the group back at Macalania was there at the front seat, possibly for steering. They were all going to depart in a second, so Fang approached the other middle-aged looking man that was standing by a large control sphere.

"Can this airship…track people down?" She asked slightly hesitant. Her voice was still a little shaky from the shock that she went through from the surprise news she heard about what happens at the end of a summoner's pilgrimage. The man examined her a little bit before he spoke.

"Well I'll be. You're that other chick from…Earth that came to join us! Been a while since you ran off with Rikku and these folk."

"My name's Fang, if you've forgotten."

He ran his thumb through his cheek and huffed a bit before showing a cheesy grin at her. She smiled back a little while looking at the others from the corner of her eyes.

"Mah name's Cid. I'm the captain of this airship. So who're you all looking to look for?" Everyone approached closer to the center where the two Al Bheds stood. Tidus and Fang were neck and neck.

"We're looking for Yuna and Remora. I gather you all know who they are since they're both summoners. Can you find them?" Fang asked. Cid examined the sphere that he stood next to.

"This airship can track down anything and anyone. Just leave it to us!" An Al Bhed announcement had echoed through the whole fort and then repeated itself in the airship intercom. "All right, folks, we're ready to depart! Find something to hold on to!" Everyone just found a clustered or small area in the bridge as the main door closed the entrance. Apparently the delay was giving everyone else time to evacuate the quarters. Fang felt the airship getting into gear as it shook for a moment and then did a regular beating motion below them, and eventually began to rise off the ground. The giant roof above them began to open, letting a few falls of sand go into the dark attic and the sunlight lit it all up. Fang moved over to a window to look at the view, and they were already halfway above the towering Home. Some of the flying fiends had noticed the arising airship and was going to slowly chase after it, but had lost their guard once the ship finally began to move away from Home. They flown slowly for a moment, but then the airship took a stop once they were about a kilometer away. Cid stood up from his seat and looked towards the group, mainly Fang and Rikku, and turned his head a couple of times to look at the other men behind the wheel.

"This is going to be a tough choice to make; I know. But we have to do it. And save those memories so you won't grieve like a coward that's not ready to face his or her greatest fear. We are free now."

Brother had said something in Al Bhed in a gloomy voice, but after a moment, the crew began to sing the Hymn of The Fayth, and it made Fang wonder how they were currently going to deal with their come being gone. Wakka blinked and turned his head towards Cid.

"What's going on?"

Cid didn't hesitate to reply. "We're...we're going to blow up our Home."

Rikku looked like she shrunk a bit next to Fang. Fang could tell what it was like to lose something precious to her. She had the same phase back home when Remora disappeared.

"It's alright." Fang whispered to Rikku, who had made a few small whimpering noises, but nodded once Fang spoke to her. Then Lulu spoke.

"With what?" She asked curiously to Cid.

"With one of the forbidden machina!" He replied assertively. He then turned towards the men doing the controls up front. "Ready? Fire!"

Fang could feel the airship slow to a complete stop, and the sound of grinding was heard when two rows of cannons coming out of both sides of the airship had charged their power. Dozens of little missiles darted out of the holes and headed strait for the raided Home in long straight stranded paths. At the same time, the airship was flying away from the perimeters at nearly full speed. A few crashes and clashes were heard from behind them, and then a massive explosion burned the Home away as the boom had shaken the surroundings while the blast had spread. Fang didn't get too frightened when they were outrun by the flaming blast. The airship had a bit of turbulence for a few seconds but then went back to a straight path and managed to break free of the fire's clutch, and later could finally rise above the clouds. As soon as they were smooth sailing, Cid cackled.

"Return to the sand!" He had shouted. Brother up front had begun to cry dramatically from the anxious moment back at the desert, and Cid had snorted. "No need for tears! What's good about machina is they can be built anew, you see?"

Fang was impressed by Cid's enthusiasm, especially after destroying his home, but Rikku's expression was unreadable. Wakka had walked over after seeing her face.

"Hey, look. Don't get so down." He had turned a little and impersonated an explosion with his arms. "Boom! Haha! Like happy festival fireworks, ya?"

Rikku had blinked from his reply but then scowled. "You can cram your happy festival, you big meanie!" She had walked over to the other side of Fang to keep her distance from the Al Bhed-hater. Wakka put his hand to his forehead and shook his head as it hung low. Fang gave Rikku a little hug from the side.

"I can't stand him." She said lowly. Rikku's head raised a little and it shook slowly.

"I'm okay. I'm fine. Really."

Fang nodded as she and Tidus went back to standing next to Cid. Everyone else went to different corners or rooms of the airship.

"Did you ever find anything out about Yuna or Remora?" Tidus asked.

"I'm lookin' into it, okay? Don't worry; I'm using a sphere oscillo-finder. If they're out there, we'll get 'em."

"A sphere oscillo-finder?"

"It's an ancient machina. I don't know how it works either, so don't ask me, okay?"

"And you still use it?" Lulu's cold voice asked.

"I don't even rightly know how this rig flies either!"

"Oooooooh..." Wakka said, sounding a little sarcastic.

"All because of the Yevon taboo on machina, we're running around in the dark here! Ain't it a rush, kiddos?"

This was all a little surprising to Fang. Even if she were an Al Bhed also, she only met part of the team at the Moonflow, and they could only help her capture Remora and Yuna when they crossed their path. She knew nothing more about them except that they shared the same purpose that she did, until now. The door to the other halls and rooms opened and Auron stepped through. Fang can't remember the last time that she thought or even talked to Auron. He seemed the same as always, and he didn't mention the little episode back at Macalania to her, nor did he apologize for falsely accusing her of betraying the group. He walked until he was facing Cid.

"After rescuing Yuna and Remora, then what? You want to keep them safe, correct? Would you seek to stop their pilgrimage?"

Cid gaped a little and stuttered before he answered. "Of course! If they continue this fool pilgrimage, they will die! Sure as if you killed them yourself. No hare-brained law or teaching can send my little niece or the earth-chic to their death! When I save them, I'll make them give up being summoners quicker than a desert melts ice!"

"Even against her will?"

"Better than a dog's death! And I'll take down anyone who disagrees!"

"You are the captain." Auron replied with no emotion in his voice.

"Good! Then it's settled!" Auron walked back to his thinking place at that point, and when Fang looked at Cid, he looked desperate to yell something. "First, we rescue Remora and Yuna! Let's show 'em what we've got!"

Remora was finally out of the dark maze which was underground of Bevelle from what she found out. She still didn't see Yuna yet, and Seymour left her alone with Maester Mika in the room that she got redressed in (luckily not while she was getting dressed). She didn't want to do this, she wanted to go back where her guardians were, especially where Fang was. She was the closest of all of them to her, and they could all be in possible danger because of her, which is why she had no choice but to go with Seymour at this point. Her actions would apparently determine their future, and it wasn't fair. The outfit she wore now was way different from what she would wear as a regular summoner, let alone a regular girl. Her hair got the red washed out of it and was pulled to the side in a ponytail and was very wavy. She wore a white knee-length tube dress that had a golden Yevon script pattern on the back. She had a gloss on her lips that gave them more shine and color. The silver gloves she wore started from her lower shoulder, and golden bracelets were worn around the wrist. They had taken away her Glory of Yevon pendant while she was unaware of it. She didn't know if anyone would recognize her at this look, and the thing that scared her the most was that something hereditary changed as well; her eye color had gotten darker. Her pink was now red and her purple was now dark blue. She wondered what happened that caused this, but if she ever saw her mother again, she'd hope that she wouldn't look like a fake.

"You're beautiful Remora." Mika had said from behind her, stroking his white beard. Remora wondered if he knew Seymour's intent as well.

"Thank you." She said, with no intention to start any argument with him, since he hasn't done anything. "But, I have a question."

"Hmm? What might that be?" He asked curiously.

"What role do I play in this wedding?" She asked. Mika was about to answer, but there was a knocking on the door behind them.

"Yes?" Mika shouted out towards it. Inside stepped Maester Kinoc, looking the same from when Remora last saw him, but he looked suspiciously at her.

"I'm sorry, Remora, but that is confidential information."

Remora blinked. "But if I'm part of this event, shouldn't I know what I'm supposed to do?"

"Maester Seymour's regards. My apologies." Kinoc stated. Remora became tenser from hearing Seymour's name at times, since she found out that he's still obviously plotting something against her.

"But Seymour tried to-!" Remora started, her voice a little high. She didn't know if either of the maester's would believe her or not and she hesitated to finish her statement. She sighed a little as she leaned against the wall. "Never mind." She stared at her silver strapped heels that revealed the daisy that was inked onto her ankle a long time ago. She wondered if anyone in Spira would have mistaken it for a birthmark if they've seen it. A few little footsteps approached her and she looked up to see Maester Mika and Kinoc side by side staring at each other but then looking at her. Kinoc had spoken first.

"We heard that you actually tried to kill Seymour back at Macalania Temple."

Remora felt her skin rise in temperature. "That wasn't my fault."

"Well for whatever reason, it's going to be hard to earn back trust from all of Spira, especially from the Guado. He's their leader, you know." Mika replied.

"How did he get to be half human and half Guado?"

Mika and Kinoc started at each other again, and then turned back to her. "Sorry, but that's only for Maester Seymour to know." Mika replied.

"Well then, where's Yuna?"

"Yuna is preparing for her wedding on the other side of The Palace of St. Bevelle, which is where we're located at right now. It stretches two kilometers though and the center is where the wedding will be held at. You'd best be ready, since it'll start it a few minutes.

"And Seymour?" There was a long pause after his name once again.

"That isn't known either."

"Why is everything about Seymour personal all of the sudden?"

"It's not you, Remora. We're not even aware of the answers as well." Kinoc had said. Remora blinked but sighed from all of her unanswered questions. What if she really was still concerned for him despite that he intentionally betrayed her?

"But, I say that it's time for you to get into place. That is why I was sent here. Everyone has to be in position before Seymour and Yuna are ready." Kinoc said, stepping a bit forward, offering his hand to her. Remora took it, but was still concerned.

"One more question. Do you think the others are coming? I mean my guardians..."

Mika turned around as he was heading towards the door directing the trio. "We're not sure. But don't worry. If they do come, they'll be in for a surprise."

"Wadneh! Xe wyord Yuna !"

"Xnehe!?"

"U xucc mnyx ayo."

Cid approached the screen in front of Brother while staring at it. He hand gestured Tidus and Fang to come forward to look.

"Yuna?" Tidus asked himself.

"Is Remora there too?" Fang asked as she ran up to the screen.

"I dunno. It looks like her, but I'm not entirely sure."

Fang and Tidus looked at the zoomed in screen. It showed a giant tower-like palace with many priests and guards around it. On one on side of a slanted bridge was Seymour in a grooms attire, while Yuna was on another separate but similar bridge. And she wore a wedding dress. Fang had blinked and tried to look at a different spot now that she knew where Yuna was. She either wasn't looking close enough or Remora wasn't there. Tidus had flipped.

"Where was that!?"

"The Palace of St. Bevelle. The Heart of Yevon." Stated Lulu clearly.

"Gramps, let's move!" Tidus had said impatiently.

"Easy, kiddo. Bevelle's defenses are top-notch." Cid cautioned.

"What's the matter, gramps? You scared? Yuna's there, and possibly Remora too, so we go and get them! And that's all!"

Cid chuckled a bit. "Heh! You got guts, kid. Set course to Bevelle! Full speed ahead!"

Brother replied by what the others guessed was 'yes sir', 'alright', or 'rodger'. The ship had suddenly gained massive speed and it had knocked Tidus down on his back, making Fang chuckle a little.

"It'll take a while to get to Bevelle. Meanwhile..." Cid said.

"We prepare for battle!" Tidus finished.

Fang figured it gave her a little time for some answers, so she walked up to Auron, who was right next to Rikku who looked like she had a few questions of her own.

"What's Seymour doing alive?" Fang asked, nearly coldly.

"I thought we took care of him at Macalania." Rikku stated. Auron closed his eyes but his head turned to the side.

"He is dead. As dead as Jyscal was. His attachment to this world kept him from the next."

"Whoa, scary!" Rikku replied. Fang, however, thought about his reply. Would that mean that Seymour could possibly reach Earth? She didn't even want to think about that question. It would probably cause a deal of grief.

"Yuna must be trying to send him." Auron continued.

"Wonder if that'll work." Rikku replied. Fang wondered the same thing.

"Perhaps he won't expect it."

"What about Remora?" Fang asked. Auron turned his head towards her slowly.

"Well, if it was Seymour that brought Yuna there, then there is no doubt that Remora is there as well."

Fang's small tension had vanished, but she was still a little anxious to find out where Remora was exactly, since she could no longer be trusted to be alone with Seymour, or anyone else in the relation. Tidus had walked up to her with determination on his face.

"You want to come with me? I need to prepare."

Fang nodded as they both walked out of the bridge, but right when the door opened, someone came out and accidentally bumped into Fang.

"Ah, pardon me!" The man said.

"Rin?" Tidus asked. He was surprised to find him on the airship too.

"Yes. It's me. Long time no see. And I see you all have an extra?"

"I'm Fang." Fang said to Rin. He seemed attractive to him, but she couldn't let herself get distracted.

"Ah, what a fine young lady you are." Rin said, grinning down at her. Fang was so lucky that she was tan enough to have unseen blushes. "But anyway, I've come to say that we're being attacked from within. Some of the Guado that attacked Home must have snuck on board."

Cid had quickly glanced at him, seeming to think that he was bluffing from the sound and look of his composure. "You're awfully calm about it!"

Rin had shrugged and continued to smile. "I am calm about most things."

"Fiends! There's nothing to do but--"

Cid was cut off. Rikku continued his statement using his tone of voice. "But destroy the ship and all go down together!"

"Eh?" Asked Cid with his head cocked. Rikku sighed at his cluelessness.

"You got to learn a little restraint, Pop. If you crash the ship, we can't rescue Yunie or Rem! Leave the fiends to us professionals!"

Tidus had grinned. "Yeah! Let's go!"

"Thanks." Rikku smiled.

"Rikku, you've made some very good friends...I think. Good luck."

The group had exited the bridge and went down a couple of hallways and rooms. Once they had reached the main lobby, there were a few people gathered around the windows, whispering -and some shouting- in Al Bhed something in a panicked tone. The group then looked out the window themselves and they saw what all of the fuss was about. A rather large flying fiend was flying parallel at the same speed and level of the ship, and it kind of startled Fang.

"Huh. Now there's a rare sight."

Tidus's eyes widened. "Whoa! That's huge!"

"What is that?" Rikku asked, getting a little closer to the window, which could have been a bad idea.

"The guardian wyrm, Evrae. The great sacred beast--protector of Bevelle!" Lulu explained.

Auron had no surprise in his voice. "The red carpet has teeth."

Tidus looked as though he just realized something. "Wait! That means we're close to Bevelle!"

The intercom had buzzed as it had turned on from the bridge. Cid's voice echoed through the lobby.

"Rikku, you read me? We're gonna fight that thing! Get on deck and show him what you've got! Go!"

Rikku shook her head as if she were in pity. "There he goes again."

Auron already began walking towards the lift. "The ferryman asks a high price."

They all followed quickly until they reached the lift. As they rose slowly, they could hear the roar of the Evrae as the door opened once they reached the deck. As they walked out, the fiend had immediately flew forward facing the group with a vicious face. Everyone kept their distance and the gun ports on the side of the ship had opened up once again, preparing for offense while Cid had spoke on the intercom.

"We gotta keep our distance, boys, but we can't let her get too far away. You all have to tell me when to move! But tell me quick, eh? This rig ain't so nimble, you hear?"

Tidus hit his chest with his hand. "Rodger! I'll give the commands!"

Rikku and Fang approached him from each side. "Not alone you won't!" Rikku said.

"I'll help too." Fang shouted above the strong winds. The Evrae shrieked its battle cry as it prepared its first attack.

The Tower of Light was the highest point of the palace. Remora walked up the stairs slowly with Maester Mika as they approached the top of the palace.

"Wait here..." Mika said. Remora stopped at once as Kinoc had went down the rest of the stairs to join most of the gunman. All of the palace was filled with monks and soldiers as was much different than an ordinary wedding back at Earth from what Remora compared. Mika nodded his head to the side to show her that there was a seat behind her that she had to sit on until Seymour and Yuna reached the Tower of Light once the wedding started. Her heels clacked as she stepped over to sit on the chair, which was uniquely designed with many Yevon symbols and what looked like Victorian vintage, which was unusual for even Spira to have. Nothing started yet, but just by looking at the monks and everything else Remora guessed that no one would probably be recognizable; it was unfortunate for Remora to no longer have her pendant with her, since she could no longer find out if any allies, enemies, or approaching danger was near. She could have sworn that she had heard a few booms now and then from way afar from Bevelle, but no one else seemed to notice but her.

But it was a second later that loud bells begun to ring, and Remora's heart had increased its rate; The wedding was finally starting, and Mika did a few steps over until he was standing at the center of the tiled floor. Remora had no idea what she played in this ceremony or what she was suppose to do, but she would probably find out once Yuna and Seymour met her length. Remora was staring at the divided bridges the whole time once the bells started to cling, and after a few final rings, she could see Seymour and Yuna walk out of the shadowed area of the bridges. They were both surrounded by monks as they stepped slowly towards the staircases to the tower that Mika and her awaited them on, but Remora examined Seymour first. He was smiling -that same grim smile that she hated so much- and his large bangs were pulled into one. The coat he wore seemed to be Yevon designed as well, it was dark blue and had a few white stripes on it as well, with a few colored Yevon writings on the sleeve and at the hanging bottom, and he basically looked overconfident. Remora then glanced at Yuna, who looked totally opposite of what Seymour was, based on mood. She looked determined yet slightly blank at the same time, and her wedding dress was thankfully white. It was made of mostly feathers around the bottom, which made Remora wonder if they were real. When they both reached where the two bridges met in a circle, they had paused, and the monks surrounding them bowed politely before stepping back. It was a small pause, but then Seymour and Yuna looked up and began to go up the main stairs. Remora could meet both of their gazes as they walked up towards her. Seymour had a look of intention and deviancy, which made Remora slightly cringe. Remora could see Yuna was staring back at her directly, and she had a look of discomfort, regret, and/or hope.

They were halfway up the stairs, and Remora would have to later be told what to do once they made it to the top of the tower, but something else caught her eye, and Remora immediately looked up. It was raining pyreflies from the clouds, and they cooed as they had zigzagged everywhere in the atmosphere. Her eyes widened as she began to hear something else. It sounded like an approaching plane or airship, and she was right. An airship had suddenly burst right through the clouds and pyreflies from afar, and headed in the palace's direction, and it's engine had left behind black smoke. Remora gasped as she saw Kinoc and the men with the fire arms gather around each other, and Kinoc pointed directly at the airship.

"Fire!" He shouted. The sound of gunfire had rung through the air as the airship came closer and closer to the tower. Seymour and Yuna had paused their walk as the airship had neared towards them but eventually flew at a different spot towards them. Seymour's face suddenly seemed cold and devious as he turned to grab Yuna's arm.

"Come!" He had shouted at her. Yuna cried out as he had ran her up the stairs, bullets and a few flower petals from her bouquet were flying above their heads. They had reached the tower and Remora got out of her chair frantically as both of them were up in semi-safety. Yuna tried to catch her breath as Seymour grinned grimly at the passing by airship. Yuna's head cover had flown off her head as the ship passed by once more, and later on two anchors had fallen down from it penetrating the ground it clung to. Then the machina had begun to fire their cannons at the slightly broken down airship. Remora wondered who the intruders could be, but it came to her surprise that there were a couple of figures at the top of the ropes that the anchors connected to; as they got closer, Remora gasped to see Tidus, Fang, Auron, Lulu, Wakka, and Kimahri sliding down the ropes towards the towers, painstakingly avoiding the gunshots coming towards them. Remora beamed as she was relieved that they were able to track her and Yuna down, wherever they were. The line of the guardians jumped off in time before a few of the bullets shot through the ropes and disconnected the ropes from the airship. The airship had then sailed off but the guardians began to run towards the tower.

"Yuna! Remora!?" Tidus's frantic voice called out towards them. Remora could tell that he couldn't exactly recognize her, and some of the others looked confused when they saw her as well. Remora took a small step forward, but the guards around her had glanced at her from the side and looked tense. This made her wonder even more what she was suppose to do if the others hadn't come. Mika and Seymour just stared at the approaching group as they fought through a number of monks and guards and Yuna looked as anxious as Remora did. As the guardians fought their way through to reach the wedding quadruplet at the tower, Tidus yelled something else in an angry tone.

"You stay right there, Seymour!"

Remora glanced at him to see that he was still smiling. It'll be the day when it seems like Seymour would frown for the first time in her life. The group finally reached the base of the steps, almost close to the top, but suddenly Maester Kinoc had stepped in front of them, looking aggravated.

"This has gone far enough!" He had took out a rifle and pointed it at Tidus, and he had also eyed Fang. Tidus had growled as he tried to get passed him, but Auron's hand held him back.

"Stop!" He yelled at him for their safety. Fang had grimaced and a party of gunman had surrounded the guardians, all of their guns pointed at their necks. Remora gasped.

"Wait!" She shouted at Kinoc. She began to step forward but then the two guards on both of her sides seized her and had their rifles pointed at her as well. She turned her head towards Mika slowly, who's expression was blank when he stared back at her. "You used me as bait!?"

"If such disturbances as this were to occur, then you could say that." He explained without any worry. Remora glared at him, but noticed that Yuna had pulled out her staff swiftly and held it up defiantly towards Seymour, who didn't change his mood.

"You would play at marriage just for a chance to send me? Your resolve is admirable. All the more fitting to be my lovely wife."

Yuna had ignored him and begun to twirl her rod slowly as she was beginning to perform a sending. Remora would have done that by now if she hadn't gotten threatened in the lower levels in Bevelle. Seymour had looked down and smirked as a few of his own pyreflies began to encircle him, but Mika didn't hesitate to interrupt.

"Stop! Do you not value your friends' lives?" He warned her coldly. Remora's eyes widened, for it was the same warning that Seymour had given her. "Your actions determine their fate. Protect them…or throw them away. The choice is yours."

Yuna had looked back at her guardians, mainly Tidus, whose necks got pushed by the ends of the rifles. Then she looked back at Remora, who still was trapped in place by the two guards. The only thing she saw on her face was concern, and she dropped her staff. Seymour had stepped out in front of her and nodded his head in the direction where Remora stood.

"You are wise."

Remora's eyes widened as her tension had risen as Seymour approached Yuna. His hands had rested on her shoulders as she didn't look happy when she looked at him. He stared right back with his gray eyes but then his head lowered only a little. Remora turned her head to see the guardians just as anxious. Fang looked as though she was biting her fingernails, and her pupils had shrunk as Rikku stuttered a few times while shaking a little. Seymour's hand had moved a strand of hair out of Yuna's face as it sunk back to her shoulders; the same thing he'd done to Remora a couple of times a while back. The guardians continued to freak a little as each second passed. Remora glanced at Maester Mika, who willfully nodded his head for the moment to come. Seymour tugged at Yuna's shoulders to bring her closer to him, and he lowered his face to hers. Remora wasn't sure if she could watch the whole thing, and Tidus grunted while taking a step forward, but was halted by a rifle at his side; and Seymour pressed his lips to Yuna's. The bells rung once more as the monks had clapped at the moment. Remora wanted to just go up and stab Seymour; push the other guards away and just go up to stab him for attempting to make both her and Yuna miserable, but it would end all of her friends' lives, including her own. Yuna didn't look like she was kissing back. She acted like a complete statue, and her fists had balled up. Remora then turned to the others, and she noticed Tidus the most, who looked grieved at first but then all of the anxiety turned into pure rage. The kiss had finally broke and Seymour looked towards the group with a blank face as he laid one of his arms on Yuna's back. His lips parted a bit as he said two last words while the moment lasted.

"Kill them."

There was an echo of clicking rifles and Remora could here both her and Yuna gasp as they immediately looked up to see the guards ready to fire at them, but the two guards on each side of her didn't budge. Kinoc had shook his head as if he were pitying them.

"I'm sorry, but it's for Yevon."

Auron glowered. "Aren't these weapons forbidden by Yevon?" Kinoc immediately pointed his rifle back at him.

"There are exceptions."

The guards that were with Remora suddenly nudged her forward until she was next to Seymour with Yuna. Her expression stayed the same as before. Seymour smirked as a hand wrapped around her waist, and Remora felt her face form a glare up at him.

"And she's staying with us too." Kinoc continued. Yuna stepped back a little, looking as though she were going to scream or cry, possibly both.

"No! Throw down your weapons! Let them go. Or else…" At that point, Yuna began to back away from Seymour and the others. It came to Remora that she was backing up until she reached the ledge. Remora hoped that she wasn't crazy enough to jump off. The entire palace of Bevelle reached up to nine-hundred feet, possibly more. Yuna kept walking back until she was sure there was no where else to back up to, and wind had flown through her. Seymour had seen her plan as well, and he threw his arm up in motion to make the guards lower their weapons. Yuna looked hesitant.

"Leave now! Please!"

Tidus stepped a little forward. "You're coming with us!"

Fang had stepped out a little too. "And so is Remora!"

Remora turned her glance to Fang, who looked infuriated. She then knew that Fang would recognize her no matter how different she looked. Seymour's grasp on her waist loosened as he turned his whole body to look at Yuna.

"This is foolish. If you fall, you'll die." He said. Yuna wiped her mouth with her gloved hands in disgust, only making Seymour grin. And then she turned her head towards the group and then towards Remora.

"Don't worry. I can fly."

Tidus was still afraid, and he shook his head in disagreement, but after looking at Yuna's calm demeanor, he didn't look as tense. Yuna smiled as she began to back up a little more.

"Believe."
