Chapter 13
Afterwards: The Prequel To College Chaos
Tidus and Wakka had just arrived in Luca in mid August to get ready for Blitz College. Both were more then excited. Although they had to say goodbye to they're friends and family back in Besaid, both were old enough to move on with they're lives and face their next steps.
"I'm so glad I moved out of my dad's place. I don't know much longer I could have handled him." Tidus told Wakka as they walked down a street from the bus stop.
"Well you had to live with the guy for 18 years I don't blame you, ya?" Wakka replied.
"Yeah. Well I'm out now. Things will be different." Tidus began. "So Lulu just left for Bevelle, eh? So how did that go?"
"Lu and I? Well…" Wakka started.
"So you're leaving tomorrow Lu?" Wakka asked.
"Yeah. I'll be studying to become a Maester." Lulu told him. Wakka then sat down on her bed as she finished up packing. "I can't believe that were all separating. Yuna in Zanarkand, you in Bevelle, Tidus and I in Luca, Rikku staying in Besaid. It sucks, ya?"
Lulu walked over to Wakka and sat down beside him. "Wakka, we all have our own paths to follow. Sometimes things don't always work out the way we want them to go. You will be happy in Luca as for everyone else and where they're going."
Wakka looked over at Lulu. "Lu…as for us…well…we'll be so far away from each other."
Lulu looked away from Wakka. "I know what you're going to say Wakka."
He then stood up and walked around her room. "Lu tell me what you want to do. About us I mean." Lulu then stood up too and walked over to him.
"Wakka…I think we both know where this is going to. Our lives will be in two different places. We'll experience new things, date new people, make new choices. What we have…had…it was just a high school crush." Lulu told him.
Wakka then turned around and looked at Lulu. "You're right. Heh, you're always right, aren't you? I guess that it was just meant to be, ya?"
Lulu smiled, giving him a hug. "But we'll see each other again. We'll always be friends." She told him.
Wakka accepted her hug. "I know that you'll have a wonderful time in Bevelle Lu."
Tidus and Wakka continued down the street. "You miss her?" Tidus asked.
"Yeah but we'll be okay." Wakka replied smiling. "What about you and Yuna? Have you talked to her anytime this summer?"
"No…She hasn't called. And I don't have her number. Its rough. I feel like I might not even see her again." Tidus told Wakka.
"Don't say that, ya? I'm sure you will."
Tidus smiled. "I hope so."
Just then as they continued walking, someone bumped into Tidus and made him flinch back.
"Hey watch it!" The person said. He then looked over at whom he bumped into. "Tidus?"
Tidus then looked over to see Graav. "Graav? What are you doing here?"
"Bickson and I are in Blitz College!" He replied.
"No way! Wakka and I just got here but were in Blitz College too." Tidus replied.
"Hey, that's really cool Tidus. Look I'm kinda in a hurry right now, maybe we can hang out sometime?" Graav told Tidus.
"That'd be cool."
"Great. Well see you around." He told Tidus then left.
Wakka and Tidus then continued down the street. "Isn't that cool to have Bickson and Graav in the same school Wakka? Looks like were not alone after all."
"I don't really like those two. There nothing more then trouble makers." Wakka replied.
"Hey don't say that. If it wasn't for Graav, I wouldn't have gotten the role as Prince in the school play."
"Whatever, ya? Let's just get to school and register, then I can show you my apartment I got a few weeks ago."
"Sounds good to me. Lets go." Tidus said.
Yuna lay on her bed back at home. Only two more weeks until school started. Yuna was happy, at least that's what she wanted to believe. She missed all her new friends she made back in Besaid, especially Tidus.
She would always look back at her memories of the two of them back in High School. Even though she had only known him for a short time, Yuna wished that they could still be together, able to see each other everyday, go to the same school, just to be with each other forever. But that was more then she could wish for since it was out of reach.
Tidus was in Luca following his dreams with Blitzball and Yuna was back home in Zanarkand, soon to attend Zanarkand High. It was a well built college for her to attend and she knew that she would make new friends.
Yuna was bored. She wished she had something to do. Yuna had never talked to Tidus ever since she left Besaid. She began to think about him again, wondering what he was doing right now.
But then that was it. She needed to talk to him. She needed to hear his voice once more. Yuna picked up her phone and decided to call Rikku for Tidus' number. The phone began to ring.
"Hello?" Came Rikku's voice.
"Hey Rikku, its Yuna."
"Yunie!! Oh my god I haven't heard from you all summer, how are you doing?" Rikku asked.
"Pretty good. How about you?" Yuna replied.
"Oh things have been all hectic over here. Dona and Issaru have gone missing or something like that. They just got up and left. Pretty weird if you ask me. Umm, lets see what else? Shelinda has also left Besaid. It seems like I'm like the only one who stayed. OO it sucks."
Yuna laughed. "Maybe you should leave too then?" She suggested.
"I might just do that Yunie! Ha, ha, so what's up?"
"Yeah I was wondering if you had Tidus' number in Luca so I can reach him." Yuna asked.
"You bet I have it! He's living with Wakka actually. Those two are good friends. Now lets see…Ah here it is!! 241-8796."
Yuna then wrote it down. "Thanks Rikku. Well I'll call you later then."
"Okay see ya!"
The two then hung up.
Yuna decided to call him up right away. She dialed his number and waited patiently. But it just kept ringing and ringing.
"Maybe he's not home yet…I'll call later then." Yuna said turning her phone off.
"Yuna, lunch is ready!" She heard her father call from downstairs.
Yuna stood up and walked out of her room and going downstairs to eat.
"This will be your room for the year Lady Lulu." The butler showed Lulu in the Bevelle temple.
"Thank you." Lulu replied.
"If you need anything, I will be more then pleased to assist you." He told Lulu.
"No that will be all for now, thank you." He then walked away.
Lulu entered her room and looked around. It was a fairly big room, maybe even a bit too big. But it would do just fine. She placed her suitcases on her bed and began to unpack.
A man then walked up to her door and watched for a few seconds before knocking.
Lulu turned around and saw the man enter.
"You must be new here." He began.
"Yes. Second Class Black Mage, Lulu Evans. I'm studying to become a Maester." She introduced.
The man smiled peacefully. "I am Praetor Baralai. Its nice to meet you."
They're eyes instantly connected with each other like as if it was love at first sight. Lulu smiled.
"Um, maybe if you're not too busy later, I can show you around the temple." Baralai suggested.
"That would be nice. Maybe after I unpack?" Lulu replied.
"Of course." Baralai said smiling. "I'll come back then." He then made his way to the door but was interrupted when Lulu spoke.
"Um, you know if you like, you can stay." Lulu told him blushing.
Baralai accepted without question. He then began to help her unpack, the two peacefully talking, getting to know each other more with each second that went by.
Two Weeks Later
Yuna was walking to school. Her first day of college. The more she thought about it, the more nervous she would become. But there was going to be many just like her who are new and don't know anyone. She just had to smile and not be afraid to make new friends.
She then walked up to the building. Zanarkand High. It was huge, much bigger then the High School at Besaid.
"But professor Nooj, must you really go to Besaid?" Came a student's voice from Yuna's side. She looked over to see two students and a teacher.
"Now, now, girls. I will return. I'm just going there for a few weeks. The school board asked me to attend a Community College there and pick up a few students who would be interested in attending school here in Zanarkand." Nooj told the two.
"But that means were gonna have a substitute teacher. If it's that cranky old teacher Mrs. Prept, I'm not going to help you organize Graduation at the end of the year." She told him.
Nooj laughed. "Don't worry Leblanc, you're not getting Mrs. Prept."
The other girl crossed her arms. "Well that's a relief. Mrs. Prept is so old I'm surprised that she's not dead yet." The other girl said.
Nooj looked at her. "Now Paine, that's not nice to say. You two hurry on to class now before you're late."
The two girls then walked in the building.
Yuna continued to stand there. 'Community College, eh? Maybe that's the one Rikku's going to.' She thought.
"Yeah know, I heard we got a really strict coach, ya?" Wakka began, walking down the school hallway with Tidus, heading to they're first class.
"Psh! Well what did you expect Wakka? They don't have time for slackers." Replied Tidus.
"Yeah, yea, I know that." They then continued walking. "So…hear anything from Yuna yet?"
Tidus sighed. "No…nothing. I wish I had her number or something. Anything to contact her with."
"Its rough. But you know, there are a lot of cute girls here. If you don't hear anything from Yuna you could always—"
"Wakka, I love Yuna. I don't want to be with any other girl then her." Tidus interrupted.
"Okay, sorry." The two of them entered class and sat in the back with Bickson and Graav.
"Yo Tidus." Bickson began. "The guys and I are hanging out after school. Big party at my dorm room. You and Wakka are welcome to come and hang."
"That'd be cool." Tidus replied. "We'll be there."
Bickson winked. "Cool, well catch yea later then."
"Where are you going?" Asked Wakka.
"Psh we don't want to hear any lectures. Graav and I are skippin." The two of them stood up and ran out the class.
"Skipping class, eh?" Wakka asked Tidus.
Tidus shrugged his shoulders.
Just then Auron, they're coach walked in and slammed the door behind him. "Good morning class. My name is Auron. I'll be you're coach for the year." He began, walking around the room. "I don't tolerate failures and/or slackers. This is a College for Blitzball. You'll all be working hard each and everyday. Blitzball should be enjoyed for everyone. If you don't oblige or listen to my instructions, I have no reason to keep you in my class. You all only have one chance. Use it well."
Tidus sank into his chair a bit and gulped. 'This is going to be hell…what have I got myself into?' Tidus thought to himself. 'Hopefully Yuna's school isn't like this.'
So there you have it. A little bonus chapter for you all. This should also open events to you that took place in College Chaos. And for all of you that haven't read College Chaos yet, I hope that you all enjoy and like it. Thanks for reading everyone.
