The distant sound of his concerned friends rang in Tidus's ear as he awoke with a splitting headache, he groggily found himself in a ruined temple of some sort as he gathered his bearings. He found himself here when the floor beneath them started to collapse and he pushed Yuna out of the way to take the impact himself. He'll probably get an earful but he'll gladly do it again.
"I'm not her guardian for nothing after all." Tidus said to himself, before wincing a bit, Yuna's white magic was a bit out of range right then, and he'd ran out of healing items, he's on his own and hurt, but he could find his way out, he's not the star of the Zanarkand Abes for nothing, or was, as Zanarkand was a ruined city now. He sighed as he traversed the temple, the fact that nothing was there was both fortunate, and worrisome, he could barely hear the others.
"HEY!" Tidus shouted as he whistled, hoping that would get their attention, even if it did, it's not like he could get out of there right away. He walked slowly across the ruins, removing any webs and dust in his way.
"This is getting, huh?" Tidus asked as he saw an alter with a scroll on it, curiosity getting the better of him he went to see it, the pictures dictated a woman being controlled like a literal puppet.
"What a weird culture." Tidus remarked to himself as he examined the scroll, it looked like a spell, the title read, Puppata!
"Puppata?!" Tidus asked, merely saying the name lit the alter and the scroll glowed a bit, his hands on it felt hot a bit as he removed them wincing.
"Ow, ow." Tidus groaned, the scroll that once had letters were gone and the knowledge of the spell entered his mind, despite the fact he didn't use magic, that was Lulu's and Yuna's department. But his brain now knew how to cast this spell, whatever it's supposed to do.
"Let's just focus getting out of this creepy place." Tidus nervously laughed as he slowly walked away, as he traversed more, he heard his friends.
"I SEE him!" Yuna exclaimed as he got tackled by her as she snuggled his chest, "don't ever scare me like that again!"
"Heh, no promises." Tidus said nervously.
"Jeez, you need to learn how to talk to ladies more yeah?" Rikku smirked.
"Took you long enough." Auron snorted but Tidus saw his concern.
"I thought you were behemoth food ya!" Wakka admitted.
"Kimahri was worried, Kimarhri glad Tidus is safe." Kimahri grunted.
"While what you did was reckless you did save Yuna." Lulu nodded, "You have my thanks."
"Hey, any time!" Tidus grinned, Yuna caught herself and blushed getting off of him.
"Er, let's move on now." Yuna said, "I'll mend to Tidus's wounds, please go on ahead." The rest of them nodded as Yuna stood back, "This is my fault."
"Hey don't say that, it was a freak accident." Tidus said.
"Still, you had to suffer because of me, as a summoner it is my duty to..." Yuna blabbed before Tidus cupped her chin, she blushed a bit.
"Yuna, I meant what I said, I'll gladly protect you no matter what, and not just because I'm your guardian." Tidus said as Yuna gazed into his eyes blushing. Trying to distract herself, she changed topics.
"So, what was down there?" Yuna asked.
"Oh, some old temple, and this weird scroll." Tidus said.
"Scroll?" Yuna asked.
"Yeah this magic scroll with this weird spell, it was called, Puppata." Tidus said as magic flowed through him, Yuna looked concerned as the spell was cast as she was hit, Tidus saw transparent strings on his fingers each connecting to Yuna, when it was done the girl in question's expression became blank.
"Yuna?!" Tidus gasped, trying to figure out what to do, he tried to wake her up but he moved a string, and noticed her arm moving with the string attached to her arm, he panicked a bit when he saw that.
"What is...?" Tidus wondered as he moved another string, this one was attached to her leg as it rose up when he pulled it, he pulled more strings as he had her walk back and forth.
"What did I do?" Tidus nearly freaked out, he had to snap her out of this and fast.
