Chapter 2 - Yuna misses Tidus yet again..
Lunch at Lulu's was delicious, much better than the usual barkeep's fare they had at the spaceship. Yuna and the girls told Wakka and Lulu their plan to sneak up on Leblanc's chateau as soon as they pilfered some syndicate uniforms. The nerve of that thief to swipe a sphere from the Celsius! Motherhood suited Lulu well: Smiling and jovial Lulu was a far cry from the short fused sermon granting guardian she had been in Yuna's pilgrimage. Wakka was his usual self: a warm hearted bear hugging befuddled loyal friend, obsessing about his latest challenge - imminent fatherhood - and moving cheerfully around.
Yuna closed her eyes and just listened to the excited voices around her. Besaid would always be her home. This is where she settled in after her father died fighting Sin when she was merely 7, this was the place he had chosen for her to grow up. Ever since Kimahri brought her to Besaid all those years ago she had had Lulu and Wakka beside her. Despite being born in Bevelle, and currently being traveling all around Spira on the Celsius, this is where her home was. In Besaid the dull ache that was Tidus absence didn't bother her as much. Unlike the rest of Spira, which they crossed together, here she had many other happy memories that didn't include him. Still, the sight of a blitzball ball always made her heart race, regardless of where she was, and Wakka had his, and the Tournament Trophy he and Tidus conquered hanging on the wall behind her. Tidus and Wakka were so proud of that trophy!
The memories came rushing into Yuna's mind, of Tidus on the boat to Kilika practicing his Jecht shot, of the Luca Goers harassing Tidus and Wakka about the Aurochs endless losing streak, about her getting so mad at the Goers players she wanted to punch them… And there was that lump on her throat back, the longing that came with any memory of her time with Tidus, the urge to yell and laugh madly, like she and Tidus had done on the stairs of Luca and Kilika.
Yuna rushed outside before anyone noticed the tears welling up on her eyes, looking for a place to be alone with her sadness. She definitely didn't want to hear another pep talk from Rikku or another sermon telling her to "let go" from Lulu and Paine. Yuna wished that Kimahri was here. His calm silent presence always made her losses seem less daunting. He had been with her as her guardian ever since her father's death, but nowadays he was needed at Mt. Galgazet, to guide the Ronso trough their troubles. She walked alone towards the temple hill she had gone so many times before. She could swear she heard the hymn of the faith beckoning her there, as it had done all her life until the faith left 2 years ago taking Tidus with them. Deep in her thoughts, Yuna barely noticed there was someone else sitting on her favorite spot, when she heard Beclem's surprised call:
"Summoner ? What are you doing here without your adoring court ?" asked Beclem with an edge on his voice. He had been alone for lunch, as usual. The people from Besaid stopped inviting him to join them after he had uttered some of his choice insults to summoners and to their precious Lady Yuna
"I'm sorry, I didn't know someone else was here already" Yuna mumbled, fighting back the tears that had been falling since she left Lulu's hut. A mission made harder by Beclem's stinging words. "Why does he have to be so ironic ?" she asked herself, losing the battle and feeling hot tears running down her cheeks.
Beclem was preparing another insulting retort when he saw the glistening tears streaming down Yuna's face. Disarmed by them, he kept his silence and was standing up to leave when he heard Yuna's question.
"What did I do to offend you so, Sergeant ?" Yuna asked
The pity was gone and his fallen comrades showed up once more in his mind. With a cold hate he uttered the least offensive thing he could muster. He was already in too much trouble in Besaid. It wouldn't do to insult their famous summoner to her face. Not now.
"You must ask yourself that question Summoner." Beclem said getting up and leaving.
Alone with her tears Yuna stood, looking at the sun reflected in the blue waters of the calm bay. There was no faith hymn anymore. It made the absence of her beloved Aeons and her friends Kimahri, Auron and Tidus even more obvious. Tidus absence was like an open chest wound by now, the pain spreading and making her body feel numb and cold. She was shivering under the high noon sun. Once more she thought of Kimahri and the memories of her father, her mother, Chappu, Luzu and all her other friends lost to Sin came rushing back.
Oddly enough, this made her feel a little bit better about Tidus. Their last battle and his loss ensured that no one else would lose friends or family to that monster. As her father once said, by defeating Sin they had put an end to sorrow itself. He was right. Her own pain was nothing compared to the grief and sorrow Sin and Yu Yevon submitted Spira on the past 1,000 years. Drying her tears in her skirt she slowly made her way back to Lulu's, bent on getting back to the Celsius and away from her memories as soon as she could.
Chapter 5 - Blitzball! / Remembering Tidus
In Luca the Gullwings found a player named Biggs to join their attack, which would be composed by Beclem, Paine and Biggs. Brother and Buddy would be midfielders, leaving Yuna and Rikku as defense and Shinra the goalie... Buddy and Brother were exhausted after their first match against the Guado..
Paine scored at the last minute and the Gullwings moved to the next phase. Beclem was thankful the Al Bheds had eliminated the Ronso from the tournament, as the huge lions were fearsome in a tackle. The Ronso would have made mincemeat of the girls in his team.
The Al Bhed team used their dizzying speed and excellent control of the ball to win matches but Beclem's team also had Al Bhed in it - 5 to be precise - so their match was more balanced than what the Al Bhed were used to. Their surprise was their downfall and Beclem's team won by 2-0 with 2 goals from Beclem. Their luck didn't hold on the final, unfortunately and the Luca Goers simply creamed the inexperienced Gullwings team with a 4-0 win. Oh well, they had put on a good show, thought Beclem resigning himself to the results.
"Good show ? You guys rocked!" said Wakka and the Aurochs
"Well we could have blocked the Goers a little better, perhaps even scored if that miracle goalie Nimrook of theirs.." started Beclem
"The guy is amazing, isn't him ? They all are! Me and the boys had to sweat blood to get a win against those guys. At least before Tidus decided to use his Jecht shot.. Then it got easy" said Wakka
"Jecht shot heh ? That "kill 2 attackers and shove the goalie with ball and everything into the net" shot of his ? Yeah, I imagine one or two of those and the game was over." said Beclem.
"Ouch! And how!" said Buddy and Brother, who had played against Tidus, Wakka and the Aurochs 2 years ago. Being on the receiving end of a Jecht shot smarted!
"Wasn't Tidus in the team at Master Mikka's commemorative tournament ? I know you guys got 1st place but I don't recall seeing that amazing shot until later in the season" asked Beclem
"That's what I told you man. We had to sweat blood to win that final. Tidus was holding out on us to give some sphere time to yours truly" said Wakka, remembering how Tidus had kept the match tied until the end then had left the field pushing Wakka into his place, giving Wakka the opportunity to score the winning shot and the limelight for that first Tournament victory of the Aurochs long ago
"He did that ?" said a surprised Beclem
"Said it was my "moment" and that he didn't want to spoil it. The guy was amazing…" said Wakka and left the sentence hang.
There was an awkward silence as Wakka, Lulu, Rikku and Brother remembered how much they missed their friend Tidus. The boy had been so amazing during the pilgrimage and the blitz season! He played like a blitz star and had the looks of a blitz star but none of the arrogance one would expect from such a talented athlete. As a matter of fact, Tidus had been very down to earth and surprisingly sweet and loyal. As peppy as Rikku, but with much funnier jokes and amazing tales from Zanarkand. Tidus had never put on airs about himself, despite having immediately achieved stardom after his first blitz game. And how he and Yuna got along well with each other! Yuna's friends had been delighted at how happy the boy made their beloved Lady Yuna during her pilgrimage, and how fiercely protective he was of her. Good thing Yuna wasn't at the bridge now or she would be sporting that haunting look her friends tried so hard to keep out of her face daily with their antics..
"You guys miss him a lot too, don't you ?" said Beclem realizing the summoner was not the only one who missed the deceased guardian dearly
"Humph! Well, water under the bridge, Sin was worth it… " coughed Wakka looking down
"Yeah, let's change the subject before Yunie gets here" said Rikku rubbing the corner of her eye stealthily to get rid of the moisture there.
