Ok people...this is MY version of FF10.
So to two certain people who keep e-mailing me. I KNOW none of this happened in
the game. I've FINISHED FF10 already, was dissatisfied with it, and so I decided
to write my own version, ok? Ok. I'm done ranting now. I had a tough time being
a happy camper while these people kept e-mailing me and calling me an idiot. I
do hope you enjoy the rest of my story.
^.^ ---------------------------
Wakka caught Rikku as she fell back
against him. Now he understood why Kimahri insisted on carrying Tidus. There was
no way in hell he could make it up these steep inclines carrying
somebody!
"Rikku!" Lulu called, carefully making her way back. "Are you
all right?"
"Yeah. Good thing Wakka caught me."
Wakka smiled down
at Rikku, "Hey. No problem."
"Thanks Wakka." Lulu smiled, taking Rikku by
the hand.
Wakka smiled back and nodded-watching the two girls help each
other climb.
"I will kill you for what you did, Seymour..." Wakka growled
under his breath before continuing on.
"Not far from Cecrops Village."
Kimahri said, hefting Tidus to his other shoulder.
"Hey, hey. Be gentle
with Tidus, eh?" Wakka teased, smirking.
Kimahri snorted, "Wakka want to
carry?"
"Once we reach flat land, ya." Wakka replied.
The cat
snorted again, "No flat ground. So I carry. Wakka not whine."
Wakka
chuckled and kept climbing. Auron had a firm grip on Yuna's hand-practically
pulling the poor thing up the mountain.
"We have to find some way to stop
Seymour for good." Rikku said, finally breaking the silence.
"Yuna needs
to send him." Auron replied, glancing back at Rikku.
"So...we just need
to keep him in one spot long enough for Yuna to send him."
Auron nodded
and helped Yuna over a cluster of rocks.
"You'll have to let me beat the
crap out of him first." Wakka muttered.
"Tidus will be ok." Lulu said,
sounding a little uncertain.
Wakka sighed sadly and helped the two girls
over the rocks. "I hope your right, Lu. I hope your right."
"Cecrops."
Kimahri said, pointing.
Wakka looked up to see two huge doors carved into
the cliffside.
"The village is inside the mountain??"
Kimahri
nodded, "No flat land for crops. Cecrops built inside mountain."
"Cool."
Rikku murmured in awe.
"Cool." Kimahri repeated thoughtfully, walking up
to the massive doors.
"How're we supposed to get in?" Rikku asked,
looking around.
"Here..." Kimahri handed Tidus to Wakka.
With all
his strength Kimahri pushed on one of the doors-his arms shaking. At first the
door wouldn't budge, but then it slowly started to move. Two huge Ronsos were
waiting once Kimahri got the door open.
"Kimahri!" The female Ronso
gasped. "Kimahri is back!"
"Kimahri is not back. Kimahri's friend needs
help." Kimahri replied.
"Do you know these two, Kimahri?" Yuna asked,
smiling.
Kimahri nodded and motioned to the female, "Sosan Ronso." Then
he motioned to the male, "Sawatis Ronso."
"I am pleased to meet you
both." Yuna said, bowing.
"L-lady Summoner!" Sosan gasped,
bowing.
Sawatis bowed briefly then looked back at Kimahri, "Who need
help?"
"Tidus." Kimahri answered, pointing. "Zombie."
"Zombie??
You must tell Maiis!" Sosan said.
Kimahri nodded and motioned for the
group to follow him.
"Village leader. Very smart. Knows lots of magic."
Sosan
and Sawatis lead the small group down a passage way lit by pyreflies into the
huge cavern that held Cecrops Village.
"Temple." Sosan said, pointing to
a run-down stone structure. "Summoner can pray there. Get helpful
aeon."
"A-another aeon?" Yuna was startled.
"Not needed for final
aeon, but good to have." Sawatis said.
"We'll take Yunie to the temple.
You guys go see the leader." Rikku said, taking Yuna and Lulu by their
sleeves.
"Ok." Wakka nodded.
"Sawatis will go to. Sawatis will
show you the way." Sawatis said, following the girls.
"This way." Sosan
motioned to Wakka and Auron.
The Ronso lead them through the rows and
rows of huts. The Ronso in the street eyed the group warily.
"Humans
rarely come to Cecrops." Sosan explained.
Wakka nodded and shifted Tidus
closer to him. It felt like he was carrying a frozen rag doll or something.
Sosan lead the group to a large stone hut in the middle of the
village.
"Maiis. Sosan cannot enter. Sosan not high
Ronso."
Kimahri nodded at Wakka and Auron. "Kimahri not high Ronso
either. Auron and Wakka must go in alone."
"B-but...I don't know how to
talk to this guy! What if I say something wrong and then he won't help Tidus?"
Wakka fretted.
"I will go in with them." A new female voice
said.
"Teres." Sosan nodded at a larger Ronso.
Teres walked up
beside Wakka and looked him over. "Teres help puny
human..."
"Uhm...thanks?" Wakka replied, just a tad
intimidated.
Teres nodded and lead the two up the steps and into the hut.
A large male Ronso with greying fur and a grey braided beard was sitting crossed
legged on the floor.
"Great Maiis. These humans request our help." Teres
said.
Both Wakka and Auron blinked at Teres-amazed at her sudden excel in
English.
"What seems to be the problem?" Maiis asked, rising to his
feet.
"Seymour Guado cast Zombie on our friend and we have no Holy
Water." Auron answered.
"When did this happen?"
"Two hours
ago."
"So...the boy has only forty six hours to live." Maiis
said.
"Yes. Please tell me you can help him. I don't know what I'd do if
he died..." Wakka squeezed his eyes shut as tears threatened to fall.
"We
can help. I know of a place where Holy Water is abundant." Maiis
answered.
"Please tell us where it is." Auron said.
Maiis shook
his head. "Only Ronso are allowed there. I will get a team to go there
immediately. Teres."
"Yes Master Maiis?"
"Take Kerisite,
Waliianen, Anies, Nakaya, and Sosan up to Mudhaji Falls. Get the boy some Holy
Water."
"Yes, Master Maiis."
Teres bowed and rushed
out.
"Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!!" Wakka exclaimed, a bright smile
taking over his features.
"I am glad to help, human." Maiis said,
bowing.
Auron and Wakka bowed too-Wakka trying not to drop Tidus in the
process.
"I will get someone to take you and your friends in until my
team returns...Roku!!"
A teenage male Ronso ran into the main room, "Yes
father?"
"Take these humans to Yujaya's home. Tell her to care for them.
The blonde boy is sick."
"Yes father. This way please."
Roku lead
Auron, Wakka, and Kimahri down the street to a two story building.
"This
is our Clinic. Yujaya will take care of you until he is
better."
"Thanks." Wakka said, going inside.
"There's more of
us...at your temple. Could you please tell them where we are?" Auron
asked.
"Of course, sir." Roku answered, dashing off.
"Zombie!"
Yujaya gasped. "That is awful, awful! What has gotten into the
Maester?"
"I wish I knew, ma'am. I wish I knew." Wakka said, hugging
Tidus a bit closer.
"I will take you to an empty
room."
"Thank-you."
Yujaya bowed her head and lead Wakka upstairs.
"You two may stay in here. I will prepare other rooms for your
friends."
Wakka smiled at the elderly Ronso and nodded his thanks. Yujaya
rushed off to find blankets and other things. Wakka set Tidus on the bed and
covered him up with a blanket.
"Please don't die..." Wakka whispered,
breaking into tears.
