"Where's Lenne?" he yelled out into the openness of the Far Planes.
Please no. Yuna thought…
"How dare you try to fool me like that!" Shuyin pulled out his sword with pure anger entrusted in it.
"No, Shuyin!" Yuna shouted. Shuyin ran up to her and swung his sword down at her. Yuna quickly moved out of the way.
I need my other dresspheres, but I can't…"Stop, please." Yuna begged. Shuyin didn't listen to her at all. He just kept swinging…

What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
I can't hear you
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
Falling in the hazy borders of my heart
I can see your face
It's something like this
Every now and then I don't know what to do
Still I know that I
Can never go back
All the things I've seen
In those hazy dreams
Can't compare to what I'm seein' now
Everything's so different
That it brings me to my knees
And oh, I know, the world of real emotion
Has surrounded me
I won't give in to it
Now, I know, that forward
Is the only way my heart can go
I hear your voice calling out to me
'You'll never be alone.'
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
I can't hear you.
And if I find the real without emotion
Has surrounded me
And I can't go on
And you are there
The moment that I close my eyes
You come to me,
"We are connected.
Go on. You see, I'll never be—"
And oh, I know, the world of real emotion
Has surrounded me
I won't give into it
Now, I know, that forward
Is the only way my heart can go
I hear your voice calling out to me
'You'll never be alone.'
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
I can hear you.
I can hear you.

"Shuyin, listen to me!" Yuna yelled, "Lenne wouldn't want this! She would want you to be happy!" her plead wasn't working.
"Don't talk to me." He wasn't in for a negotiation.
"Shuyin…""What?" Yuna heard a voice calling out from somewhere. Shuyin stopped dead in his tracks upon hearing the voice.
"L—enne?" Shuyin dropped his sword. Then, from nowhere, a shining light appeared, like the one Yuna jumped into. In the middle, the shadow of a woman appeared.
"Shuyin—" the voice said again. Soon the being became visible… It was— Lenne.Yuna looked down at herself. Her sleeves seemed to disappear and her clothes began to glow. Her boots changed to black and her hair shortened. She was now herself…
Lenne walked over to Shuyin who was still in complete shock.
"It's really you— Lenne." Shuyin smiled. Lenne just nodded with a smile. Shuyin just reached out his arms and quickly held her within them in a tight hold. "I missed you so much, Lenne…"
"Me too…" Lenne smiled. A tear dripped from her cheek and fell upon the grass of the Farplanes.
Yuna couldn't help but smile at the reuniting of them. It was so beautiful. Yuna looked down at her arm to find her communication device there. She held down the button and spoke into it…
"Hello? It's Yuna. Brother, are you there?" a couple seconds passed before—
"Yuna! Yuna! You're okay! Where are you? We'll come and get you! Stay there!" Brother yelled into the device. Yuna smiled. She looked up at Shuyin and Lenne once more. Shuyin let go of Lenne and stared into her eyes…
"I love you, Shuyin…" she smiled.
"I love you too Lenne…"
I know that you're hiding things
Using gentle words to shelter me
Your words were like a dream
But dreams could never fool me
Not that easily
I acted so distant then
Didn't say goodbye before you left
But I was listening
You'll fight your battles far from me
Far too easily
I'm just glad I oculd help… It's wonderful to see him happy, lying in the arms of the one he loves… If only— Yuna thought and looked up into the sky of the Farplanes…
"Save your tears 'cause I'll come back"
I could hear that you whispered as you walked through that door
But still I swore to hide the pain when I turn back the pages
Shouting might have been the answer
What if I'd cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart?
But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart
Though a thousand words
Have never been spoken
They'll fly to you
Crossing over the time and distance holding you
Suspended on silver wings
And a thousand words
One thousand confessions
Will cradle you
Making all of the pain you feel seem far away
They'll hold you forever!
Yuna looked over and noticed a portal had opened. That was here way back to the real world. Yuna stepped forward and stared into its depths…
The dream isn't over yet
Though I often say I can forget
I still relive that day
You've been there with me all the way
I still hear you say
"Wait for me, I'll write you letters" 'Cause a thousand words Oh, a thousand words
I could see how you stammered with your eyes to the floor
But still I swore to hide the doubt when I turn back the pages
Anger might have been the answer
What if I'd hung my head and said that I couldn't wait?
But now I'm strong enough to know it's not too late
Call out through the ages
They'll fly to you
Even though I can't see, I know they're reaching you
Suspended on silver wings
One thousand embraces
Will cradle you
Making all of your weary days seem far away
They'll hold you forever!!!
Lenne and Shuyin began to glow a strange aura as they lay in each other's arms. Their bodies turned to dust and it floated off into the stars…
Oh, a thousand words And a thousand words
Have never been spoken
They'll fly to you
They'll carry you home and back into my arms
Suspended on silver wings
Call out through the ages
They'll cradle you
Turning all of the lonely years to only days
They'll hold you forever!!!
Yuna stepped forward with one leg in the portal when she heard a sound. She turned and looked back, and a loud whistle sounded…
Tidus?
