Final Fantasy IX/X-2: Melodies of the Gullwings

Rikku, Paine, Garnet, Jecht, Braska, Steiner, and Vivi went into the tent. Yuna stood where she was, then put her fingers in her mouth and whistled. "I wonder if he heard that........"

 

Zidane looked at Steiner who was was so insisitant he'd stand guard and protect the Princess and Zidane sighed, there was no use in talking him otu of him so he lay down the dusty ground, hearing Yuna whistle. "We got a big day tomorrow." He closed his eyes as Yuri rested his head against the rock formation with his sword's hilt on his side as he was sleeping kinda like Inuyasha.

 

Yuna changed to Songstress and laid down. Then she had the same dream as before, she and Tidus were running from Bevelle guards in the Bevelle Underground. She still wasn't sure why they were running, soon enough they stood in front of Vanagun. Tidus held Yuna in his arms as the guards confronted them. Yuna and Tidus looked at each other one last time and they were shot. Yuna looked toward Tidus' motionless body and cried. Yuna shouted loudly and woke up, she gasped for air.

 

Yuri sat in front of the camp on a rock as the guard duty shifted since Steiner was asleep on his legs and he heard Yuna behind him. "Nightmare?" he asked her with his sword still sleathed on the ground as her places his hands on the end of the hilt and placed his head on it.

 

Yuna looked at him and nodded. "Kinda." She explained the dream to him, and tried not to make it too confusing.

 

Yuri listened as he noticed Yuna had taken a seat beside him when she explained and he spoke.

"So, that's what happened, but I'm not surprised to hear about a huge creature, this world has many different kinds of monsters so it can be possible it exists, but with you and him running, I think it would be either the creature influencing you or something else did." his eyes looked at the dress.

"You weren't originally wearing that so it could be possible it has something to do with it, how, I do not know." He stared out into the distance. "He talked about you when he was around."

 

"What did he say?" Yuna asked as she changed dresspheres. She now wore Berserker.

 

"He said he was looking for a woman who's very precious to him and when I asked what she was like, he laughed and tried to describe you, he said a cute girl who's strong willed and never willing to give up." he chuckled with his mouth closed.

"He told me a story about his journey, how he experienced it and his fellow compainions but two people stuck out the most, the summoner Yuna and the hateful old man, he had different expressions talking throughout his story and my father thought it was all but a fairytale, I on the other hand, believed it all did happen, and with you and his father here, it's undeniable proof he came from another world." he finished.

 

Yuna tried to imagine him explain the pilgrimage to Zanarkand. "I see........" She smiled as she watched the sun rise. "I hope we can find each other."

 

Yuri chuckled. "Hope's a good emotion, it pulls us through the bad times." he watched the sun rise.

 

Yuna waited for everyone to get up. Jecht smiled and lifted Vivi on his shoulders, Yuna smiled.

 

Zidane strenched out. "Okay, I guess we are all ready to go?" He asked them before noticing Steiner was still asleep on his legs and ZIdane scratched behind his head with his gloves on. "Rusty's still asleep?"

Yuri stared at Zidane from his seat. "He's been like that ever since I took over your guard duty as he was muttering "I'll never let a bandit protect the Princess and stayed up until you went to sleep it was my turn."

 

"Steiner, Garnet's running away with the bandit." Rikku shouted, and Steiner woke up immediately.

 

Yuri tried his best not to laugh at that moment. "Oh, that's a good wake up call there Rikku." He smiled and got up.

Zidane looked around and checked hsi equipment. "Right, since everyone's up, let's head off to the Ice Cavern!" he said to them and walked away from the forest as Yuri soon followed suit.

 

Rikku smiled and everyone else followed them.

 

Yuri stepped back a bit and he was walking alongside Braska. "You must be Yuna's father I presume?" he asked him as Zidane checked the map with garnet while Stiener was mubling about bandits theives, return to the castle etc.

 

"Yes, I am. High Summoner Braska."


Yuna got chills as they neared the carven, Jecht placed his cloak on her shoulders. He looked the same as he did on Spira without the cloak on, Yuna sighed.

 

Yuri felt the coldness and for once, was glad his armor was clothing because Steine rlooked like his suit was to goign to freeze off and Yuri checked out everyone else, Rikku seemed ot be struggling with her Thief dress-sphere and Yuri took off his white coat without much diffculty and handed it to her.

"Don't worry, I'm used to this." he said to her as Zidane didn't seem to bothered. "Okay, let's get going!" He walked in to lead the party.

 

Rikku smiled and Paine changed her dressphere to Black Mage. Garnet ran to the flowers, wondering what kind they were.

 

Zidane looked around. "I don't know, but I guess they are grown only in the cold." zidane coudl feel hsi tail getting cold and he rubbed his shoulders whiel Steiner was telling the Princess not to touch anything as Yuri seemed unfazed by the cold.

"Sorry to be rude Princess but I think we better start moving, I think Rikku, even with that coat on and Zidane are getting chilly." Yuri said to her.
