**Chapter 4**
The break between high school ending and college beginning seemed to drag on forever. Yuna was anxious to leave and be with her friends again.
Eventually when it was time to go Yuna's goodbyes didn't take long, after she had packed her few possessions into a small black suitcase and her school bag she hugged her mother and father. Promising to write often and to come back at Christmas, Yuna left and headed towards the beach where she was supposed to meet Rikku. After a few minutes of staring into the sea, Yuna heard a strange scraping noise behind her.
She whirled around to see her cousin dragging two very large and obviously heavy green suitcases. She stopped, noticing Yuna was already there, to wipe her brow and smile innocently at the grinning girl standing by the shore.
'You really don't need to bring the kitchen sink. Were coming back soon!' Yuna giggled.
Rikku gasped in mock surprise,' I did NOT bring the kitchen sink...just most of my wardrobe...' she added sheepishly.
Yuna laughed at her comment and soon Rikku had also joined in.
'So, are we still getting on the boat, or will all your luggage sink it?'
'I think we should ask my Pops to give us a lift. I'm sure he won't mind, cos it's a new start. C'mon!' she said excitedly before attempting to drag her heavy suitcases back the way they came.
'Do you want any help with those?' Yuna asked.
'PLEASE!' Rikku relied gratefully.
The girls began trekking off across Besaid village towards Cid's airship parked not far from the high school. When they arrived Cid was more than happy to give them a lift, even if he wasn't sure why Rikku needed so much luggage.
The trip took little less than an hour, so Yuna and Rikku spent their time catching up in one of the compartments with beds for the crew to sleep in. mostly Rikku talked and Yuna listened patiently.
'So where are we going to meet Lenne?' Rikku asked randomly.
'At the blitzball stadium there, she said Shuyin had practice today', with the mention of the blonde's name she began to blush.
'Oh please! Stoppit!!!' Rikku teased', while were in Zanarkand we'll have to find you a new guy to go pink over! Shuyin is getting old!'
'Sorry...' Yuna murmured still smiling from her cousin's little outburst.

'Bye Pops! Thanks for the lift! See you soon!' Rikku yelled to the now disappearing airship while Yuna waved silently. They were standing on one of the piers at the Zanarkand dock, but had now begun to walk into the busier part of the city.
'The stadium, huh? Shall we get a chocobo or don't they have those here?' Rikku sighed.
'I think we'll have to find another mode of transport Rikku - like that!' Yuna smiled pointing to a long train without wheels running through some kind of glass tube carrying several people to their next stop.
'Okay!' Rikku lead the way through a sea of busy people to a booth where they bought two tickets for the mono-rail as it was known. They boarded and stood next to one of the windows, gazing at the wondrous city. Before they knew it, about thirty other people had boarded, the doors slid closed and the train had begun to move, jerking the girls backwards. Every few seconds they noticed a large metallic bar supporting the tube flash past their faces, creating an odd whizzing noise. After a few stops during their journey, Yuna saw their stop coming up next.
'Rikku! I can see the stadium! It's huge!' Yuna exclaimed. Before them was a wonder to be seen; the stadium was bigger and more grander than any buildings the girls had seen so far. From where they were, Yuna could catch a glimpse of the blue from the sphere pool. But as they got closer she could see in more detail the people, who before seemed like ants, swimming inside it.
The train began to slow down and once it had stopped Yuna and Rikku hauled the two green cases off the train. They approached the main gates of the stadium a few minutes later, but once they entered their breath caught in their throats. The stadium was huge on the inside too, and almost three times the size as the dome in Luca. It was awesome.
'Hey! Over here!' someone shouted in Yuna and Rikku's direction. They turned to see a flash of long, brown hair flying towards them. Lenne waved and then began to approach the girls saying,' so you found it alright I see. I hope that isn't all yours Yuna!' she said pointing towards both of Rikku's cases next Yuna. She laughed, shaking her head vigorously. Lenne smiled.
'I'll go tell Shuyin that you both arrived,' the girl said spinning on her heel and heading back towards the pool. Yuna felt her face get hot and could guess why.
'Are you pink in the face because you've dragging my cases or is it because 'He Who Must Not Be Named' is coming this way?' Rikku seemed to have read her mind as usual. Yuna just smiled back innocently while Rikku gave her a 'you're hopeless' look.
There was a splash and a 'good' which Yuna could only guess came from Shuyin getting out of the sphere pool. Both girls looked up to see many other members also get out, all equally soaked and making huge puddles on the floor. Shuyin was handed a towel before looking in the girl's direction and following Lenne who led him to them. He was smiling broadly at the cousins whilst drying his hair as best he could with the damp towel.
'Hey, you're here! Cool! Me and the guys were just practicing, did you get here alright?'
'Yep! We persuaded my Dad to give Yunie and me a lift on the airship, when did you get here?' Rikku replied.
'We've already been here a couple of weeks getting the flat ready', Lenne filled in.
'That reminds me, I want you to meet someone', Shuyin said sounding quite excited,' Tidus! Get your ass over here! He's kinda shy', he whispered to Yuna and Rikku.
One of the players slowly walked over to the group, leaving damp footprints in his wake. When he arrived he stood beside Shuyin and Yuna was shocked at what she saw.
'Everybody, this is my brother Tidus, Tidus this is Rikku and Yuna', Shuyin said gesturing to the girls.
'Hi', Rikku smiled.
'H..Hello', Yuna said absolutely gobsmacked. Tidus and Shuyin looked almost exactly alike - they had the same blonde hair and blue eyes, yet Tidus' seemed a lot softer and gentler than Shuin's piercing ones.
'Nice to meet you both,' he replied looking only at Yuna.
