A Strange Resemblance
I marched right into the cell "WHO ARE YOU?!" I questioned him intensely, he looked at me blankly "who are you?,…"look I didn't come here to listen to sarcasm, now I asked you a question so answer it!" I knew I was being rude but this man had ordered an army on my home and killed hundreds of innocent people, but I also couldn't help getting a warm felling from this man. " I am Paceo a soldier of earth, oh and for the record being rude isn't going to get my attention". he said in a sarcastic voice," EXCUSE ME?!" I yelled, "I'm not trying to get your attention, nor would I ever you just killed hundreds of my friends, I HATE YOU!" at this point he was really starting to piss me off, but there was still something about him that reminded me of Tidus, and who knows maybe he was attacked by sin too and was brought to a different planet…so I had to ask.." Paceo, do you have a brother?". He looked at me again, this time I could tell that it hurt him, "I don't know" he said in a low voice" I really don't know anything about myself, all I know is I just appeared out of nowhere like 3 years ago..I don't remember anything about my past. All I know is that somebody found me, they questioned me as you are now, and decided I was to old to be adopted so they just sent me to the military…and yea that's why im here today.", I felt bad for him but at the same time confused….Tidus never mentioned anything about a brother.
I got to know him alittle better and started to understand how he didn't really want to attack us, and that he thought his planet was doing fine with resources and I also started to hate this corporal person, he was the real reason for all the killing. Then Wakka came storming in with a few soldiers "YUNA!! What are you doing?! Wakka exclaimed " this man is the enemy, ya, you don't just have a conversation with someone who just barely destroyed your home!". "But he said it wasn't his fault and he had to do it or never have friends again, he was taking orders from his corporal he disagreed to it the whole time!" I yelled back. "This man is a lying bastard!" yelled one of the soldiers" he killed my son!" then Paceo said "I'm really sorry we were only following orders, I hate the man who made me do this and I would gladly fight on your side." Wakka just glared at him and walked away pulling me with him.
"Paceo has failed, the only way for us to keep our secrets from them is to kill him I know you may not like the idea corporal but we have to do it for the sake of our planet" said______. "I understand, Paceo never liked me much anyway always questioning my orders like hewas in charge".
"Good then you wont mind arranging the plans to assassinate him"."Yes master"
"Paceo, how good of a fighter are you?" asked Wakka. "I was trained by the best" answered Paceo, "good then you are in the crusader army, wake up at 6:00 am every morning, ya. And show us you really didn't want to attack us.
So every morning for a month he got up at 6:00 am sharp, for some reason I couldn't help watching him, I think I was falling in love…I didn't want to but I couldn't help it. I could see his strength increasing, though almost everyone in Besaid didn't want him in the army and thought he would turn on the last minute in battle, I didn't I could see he was a nice man.
"I've noticed you watching me lately….does someone have alittle crush?" he said elbowing me I giggled " nobody could find anybody as ugly as you attractive" I lied, I think he even noticed I was lying…he just smiled and said this is for you" he handed me a piece of paper with a poem in it, it said:
Far Away
Here again, filled with sorrow
dreading what happens to me tomorrow.
Don't want to fell the pain no more,
All of my feelings constantly at war.
I pray to Yevon looking for a way out,
But in return I receive nothing, not a word
Sometimes I wanna shout.
For when I show what's deep inside,
Theres always someone there to rip apart
My pride.
People are always treating me like nothing,
And I always feel my heart crushing.
Maybe someone will see me for ME,
And maybe one day I'll finally be free.
Paceo,
I had no Idea how to react I was really happy, did he love me too??
