Yuna
"Hey, I've always imagined us coming here again together, right?"
"Eh!?"
Rikku
"What's this?"
"What are you doing here Rikku!?"
"That's exactly what I was
asking myself about you!"
"Ah!"
"You got one too, Rikku?"
"That's what it says!"
"But it doesn't say anything on who its from..."
"It might even be a prank, but for some reason, I don't think so."
"I'm glad I came!"
"Yuna! It's been so long! How've you been?"
"Fine."
"Always, I've been thinking
about getting back together with you!"
"But I've been doing so many things--all over the world!"
"Next row of the usual stands, in front of the East Block bleachers,
fifth row from the right."
Paine
"Namely, right here."
"Wow!!!"
"Good to see you."
"And you got one too, Paine?"
"So it seems."
"Has it really been three
months?"
"Just about."
"Wh-y haven't my 2 crewmates
kept in touch, huh?"
"Well, we can make up for it now!"
"However suspicious the
reasons, we have returned."
"Welcome back!"
"......I-I'm here."
"And Brother...?"
"Buddy and him are out
shopping."
"But never mind them."
"The new letter! Yuna, read! Read!"
"Right."
""Meet me at Yadonoki.""
""You must use your own strength to reach the top. There, you will
see something interesting.""
"That's it?"
"Looks like it."
"It said Yadonoki..."
"It's said this Yadonoki Tower
outclasses anything else."
"Only recently were these ancient ruins discovered." "I've heard
it's a pretty big place."
"Well then, let's go! Let's
go!"
"Paine, you're welcome to pilot the ship!"
"What?"
"If Brother finds out, he's gonna be upset."
"It's my ship, too!"
"Yes, it's decided!"
"Yeah!"
"Y"
"R"
"P"
"Launching!"
"Prepare sequence!"
Yuna & Rikku
"Ummm......"
"Not a very promising
start."
"Big, isn't it?"
"Sooo! Can't we just go by
airship?"
"That's not exactly what was
meant."
"That again?"
"Take a look at the letter."
"It says: "You must use your own strength to reach the top. There,
you will see something interesting.""
"That point is clear."
"Why am I getting a bad
feeling about this?"
"Tired out?"
"A little bit."
"It's been a while since I've done this sort of thing."
"Are you alright?"
"Easy street!"
"I'm different than you here! Everyday I fly around in circles,
here, there and everywhere!"
"I'm tired of that sort of
life!"
"Nowadays, everyone's on the
hunt to discover sunken machina."
"Yup yup!"
"Really? Is Shinra helping
out, too?"
"Ahhh, now that you mention
it..."
"Well, all I know is that
Shinra left the ship."
"He got together with Rin and what do you think all that research
they're doing is for?"
""I know everything." is all he said in that smug way of his. I've
seen him around all over the place."
"Anyways, I've been diving for ancient ruins on the ocean floor,
going back and forth from mission to mission."
"Yup yup! And Pops is on the scene again with some crazy business
scheme that he says is sure fire."
""The Gagazet Hot Springs is the hot spot to make money! Then we can
rebuild Home!" he keeps saying."
"Then, Brother went and told Pops that he couldn't put up with him
anymore and he stopped helping out." "That's the reason that Pops
needed a new business partner."
"By now, Pops must be saying
"Welcome to O'aka's" and whining about losing money and having no
customers."
"And you know how Leblanc has this strange idea that she can do
whatever suits her, right?"
"Well, this time she's decided that Ronso land suits her best. But,
Kimahri has no intention of negotiating with that annoying woman."
"Now, the situation is getting pretty intense. She's even made
preliminary arrangements to move in!"
""Kimahri is worried," he said. But she just replied "Anything goes
for Leblanc!" or something to that effect."
"Darn! Quit fooling around!"
"And get this, Clasko's being a total loser as usual." ""Oh, why do
these things always happen to me?" He keeps saying."
"Too bad he can't keep a pair of those birds."
"So the Kinderguardians got back together on a new mission to
protect
them."
"Enough already! Enough! It's not my job to pick through all
this!
Makes you feel crazy, doesn't it?"
"Oh, just one more
thing before I'm done, Tobli contacted me and said,
"I don't have a singing group for my next show! Oh my, oh my!""
"He said no one's voice could compare to Yuna's." |
"He and
Barkeep got
together and they kept talking about how special you are."
"Y-you've been up to so many
things, haven't you?"
"Well, that's just the
way Rikku is."
"Helpful?"
"What can I say?"
"I can't help it if I'm welcome everywhere.
I'm
totally popular!"
"Yes, you are."
"You're so busy, your head must be spinning!"
"You're just lazy, aren't
you?"
"What was that?"
"I wonder if our meeting up again isn't such a good idea?"
"It looks pretty old, doesn't
it?"
"This is what a group
of explorers discovered."
"They say it's "from the
time of ancient
Zanarkand.""
"Yeah! Probably the
Machine Faction."
"They just can't help themselves!
They've just got to investigate and check out everything!"
"What did the letters
mean by "Go up and see something interesting?""
"What could there possibly be up there to see?"
"A fantasy? Or an illusion?"
"By the way, you've
kept in touch with the Machine Faction, right?"
"So, um, is Gippal doing okay?"
"I guess. I haven't seen him
in awhile."
"Is that right? You didn't all
get together?"
"Well, how about Baralai? Or Nooj? Didn't you all
forgive and get back
together as a team?"
"Yeah, but they still
each have their own thing going." "The guys have
all been busy."
"I've heard they're planning
to dissolve the groups."
"The Youth League has
already, but New Yevon is still thinking about it."
"As usual, Yevon is one big headache."
"It seems that Baralai's
having
trouble with them."
"They're slow to change. They not only dislike it, but they
also aren't
capable of it."
"Now, the three leaders of the groups have to force them to
change."
"Nooj said, "Spira splintered the moment Sin was destroyed,
because
people like us allowed it to happen.""
"It's annoying when they talk
like that!"
"Well, it may not be as
earth shattering as all that he says, but he
thinks Baralai is being used by the old people just because he
promised to
stand by them."
"In that case, the four
of you should get together and convince him
otherwise, right?"
"It's been a long time..."
"I don't think we can be a team like that again."
"Why not?"
"It's nothing."
"There's just something I need to say to them."
"Say to them?"
"Sooo..."
"What's the big secret?"
"Uh... it's... well..."
"You don't want to talk about
it?"
"That's all right. I'm
getting used to always being left out. If you
don't feel comfortable..."
"Yes, that's right."
"After all this
time, we're not allowed to see her feelings. But, I
still want to know, okay?"
"What?"
"Don't you find it
magical?"
"I've been away from Besaid too long now."
"I wonder if he's
watching the
same sunset..."
"The same... huh?"
"But you know, even
though we watch the same things, everyday, it's with
a new perspective."
"Is that sooo?"
"It's just that...nowadays, it
hurts to be away from him."
"Ooohhhhh..."
"So, Yuna, you're still
in Besaid?"
"Yup yup! But after a
while, I know she'll get tired of it and return
to the Gullwings!"
"That's not going to
happen!"
"Those time when he was gone, my life was so mixed up and
lonely."
"But it all changed in that moment when we came flying back to
the island..."
"Now, I'm so preoccupied with him, I wouldn't leave for the
world! We've
been so happy and peaceful, I feel as though I want time to stand
still for us."
"Vidina's the center of
attention right now."
"Everyday there's something
to do."
"Oh! And he's already grown his first tooth!"
"Is Daddy as befuddled as
ever?"
"Lulu was in shock."
"She wanted to tell him right away!"
"Didn't Wakka just see
it?"
"Well, you know Wakka..."
"The relaxed, hassle-free
life, huh?"
"It's because of him."
"Oooooh!! Gossip time!
Tell us all about him!"
"It sounds serious! What'cha been doing, hmmm?"
"Doing? What do you mean?
...Just normal things..."
"For example?"
"Yunie?"
"What?"
"So...?"
"Oh! I'm so sorry!"
"Uh-huh..."
"How come you've never invited me over, huh?
Maybe there's a
reason you
didn't want me to join you..."
"You jealous?"
"What gave me away?"
"But, I still can't believe how that guy just returned to the
island
that day! It was so incredible!"
"And the airship almost crashed into him when we flew in, and
you just
jumped off!"
"Now that I look back on
it, I must've looked so clumsy in my impatience
to reach him..."
"Have you found
everything you were looking for then?"
"Well...it's not exactly
that..."
"I've found what I was searching for but I haven't done
everything yet."
"I can't express what I mean in words...but do you
understand?"
"Sorry."
"Well, I don't get it...!"
"Yunie, you're sure not being clear! Things sound like
they're gonna
get more and more complicated!"
"If you say so, I guess?"
"Well, it would be
unnatural if nothing ever changed."
