Chapter Two: First Glimpse
~~~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~
The
beauty that was Lady Yunalesca Yevon sat staring at the large Macalania diamond
that now sat on her finger. She couldn�t stop smiling and had to resist
the urge to call her father, Yu, at the presidential palace to tell him.
It was far too late for that � almost 3 am � and she didn�t want to wake him
up. The news would just have to hold until the morning.
After
dating Zaon for almost 6 years she was beginning to think that he was never
going to propose � instead opting to ask her to go ice fishing at every
opportunity. She laughed to herself. He had finally gotten up the
nerve and looked almost shocked when she accepted. After shouting happily
and kissing her, he�d run out to tell Shuyin who was the only other person in
the world Yunalesca knew would still be awake since he�d just played a
blitzball game.
The
sound of the doorbell caused her smile to fade slightly. She couldn�t
imagine who would be at her door so late. Creeping over quietly,
Yunalesca glanced out the window and her smile was immediately back on her
face. Flinging the door open, she embraced the woman standing there,
�Lenne!� she felt the hug returned as she continued, �What in Spira are you
doing here this late?�
The
embrace ended and Yunalesca suddenly noted a small suitcase next to her friend
and a look of sadness in her brown eyes. Lenne sighed deeply, �Can I stay
here for a while? I just to evicted from my apartment.�
�Of
course!� agreed Yunalesca as she gripped the bag and motioned for Lenne to
enter. As the petite brunette sat down, she buried her face in her hands
and groaned. Yunalesca sat down next to her and put an arm around her
friend, �What happened? I thought you were living the high life in
C-South. You�ve been doing concerts left and right, haven�t you?�
Lenne
nodded. Being a songstress � and an incredibly popular one throughout
Zanarkand � had started out as a wonderful career. Now, though, the 19
year old girl didn�t know what she was going to do. She looked at her
friend and sighed, �My manager wasn�t putting my money into accounts like he
said he was.� She finally said, �He was spending it all on booze and
whores.� Lenne heaved herself off of the sofa and dug in her suitcase for
a small piece of paper, �This eviction notice was on the door of my apartment
when I got there. I went in and everything was gone except for this
suitcase with all of my clothes.� She kicked the bag in anger and her
eyes flashed with rage, �The damned apartment complex sold all of my belongings
to pay back rent that I didn�t even know that I owed!�
�They
didn�t give you any warning?� Yunalesca asked in shock.
Lenne
shook her head and let her brown hair fall over her shoulders, �Apparently they
were giving my information to Berdent who was supposed to be paying the
bills. He never told me and just continued to suck me for all I was
worth.� She collapsed on the floor with her legs crossed, �I don�t have
any money and no where to live. All of my concerts and appearances have
been cancelled because Berdent is no where to be found and nobody wants
anything to do with me since I�ve got all this bad publicity now.�
She let herself shed a few tears before wiping them violently away as if
furious with herself for letting them spill, �What am I supposed to do, Yuna?�
Her
friend climbed off of the sofa and knelt in front of her, letting her pale
blond hair caress the floor over her shoulders, �You�re going to stay here for
a while. You�re going to get a job and you�re going to get back on your
feet.� She gave her friend a smile, �Everything is going to be okay,
Lennie. I promise.�
Lenne
gave Yunalesca a grateful grin and then her eyes suddenly caught something
glittering in the light from the lamp. Her eyes focused for the first
time on the diamond on her friend�s hand and her eyes searched Yunalesca�s for
some clue. At Yunalesca�s smile, Lenne yelped happily, �He finally asked
you??!!�
�Just
a few hours ago.�
�Where
is he?� asked Lenne as she climbed to her feet and straightened her blue shirt,
�I want to congratulate him.�
�He�s
out with his friend, Shuyin. They�re probably getting drunk to celebrate,
although if I know Shuyin they are probably celebrating the Abes win more than
Zaon�s engagement.� Said Yunalesca with only a hint of annoyance.
Although she thought Shuyin was fun to be around and could be very funny, his
self centered personality annoyed her to no end. She didn�t understand
why Zaon didn�t smack the conceited little jerk sometimes. She wanted to
sometimes, that was for sure.
Lenne
pouted, �I know. The Duggles should have won.� She ran a hand through her
long brown hair. As a C-South resident � or, former resident as it was �
she was a huge fan of the Zanarkand Duggles blitzball team, but every time they
played the Abes, they lost. She smiled, �If it hadn�t been for that cocky
little blond making the shot at the last minute the Duggles could have at least
ended the season with a tie.�
Yunalesca
let out a laugh and gripped her stomach as she collapsed on the sofa, �You
think he�s cocky too?�
�Of
course,� replied Lenne as she sat down next to her giggling friend, �That #4
almost oozes conceit.�
Sobering
slightly, Yunalesca said, �Well, #4�he�s�well�he�s Shuyin.� Lenne�s
shocked and apologetic look made Yunalesca laugh even harder and she shook her
hand in the air as if waving away the guilt that Lenne was feeling, �Don�t
worry about it. Shuyin is funny but he is definitely conceited. I
don�t know why Zaon hangs out with him.�
�Neither
do I.� agreed Lenne, �He always refuses interviews too. I guess that�s
why I really dislike him. If he really wanted to be a good star, he�d
interview as often as he could so that his fans could get a sense of who he
is.�
Yunalesca
grinned. Shuyin was never one to pay attention to his fans unless they
were willing to put out and she conveyed that to Lenne, �And what�s annoying,�
she continued, �is that he�s so handsome he can get away with stuff like that.�
�So
why does Zaon hang with him?�
Yunalesca
shrugged, �They�ve been friends since they were kids. Zaon has seen him
through some tough stuff.� She paused, �Zaon is really the only person that
Shuyin has left.�
�What
do you mean?�
�Well,�
Yunalesca stopped. She wasn�t sure if she should convey Shuyin�s personal
history to someone who had never met him, but she knew that Lenne would keep
her mouth shut. Lenne wasn�t the type to gossip about other people�s
misfortunes. She continued, �Four years ago his parents were killed by
fiends while they were taking a stroll towards Mt. Gagazet.
�That�s
horrible.�
�Yeah.
He was really close to them but especially his father. His father was the
one who taught him how to play blitzball.� She cast her gaze downward, �Zaon is
the one that told him about his parents.�
Lenne
frowned and a crease crossed her brow as she said, �So his behavior��
�Yeah,�
Yunalesca nodded, �It started after their deaths. I think he�s been
acting out since then. That doesn�t excuse it though.�
�Well,
conceit isn�t a crime, you know.� Lenne said with a laugh.
Yunalesca
nodded, �True, but he�s also a firm believer in the �Love �em and Leave �em�
mentality.� Lenne cocked an eyebrow in confusion and her friend
clarified, �He leaves as soon as his paramour is asleep.�
Before
Lenne could reply the girls heard voices coming from outside. Rising from
their seats and walking to the window, the girls saw Zaon and Shuyin standing
outside laughing while two attractive girls hung all over Shuyin � one in pink,
one in blue.
Yunalesca
quietly opened the window and the two girls listened intently to the
conversation.
�You
sure you don�t want to come in and see Yuna?� Zaon asked.
Shuyin
shook his head, �I�ll see you guys later. She�s probably asleep anyway
and I�ve got some important business to attend to.� He winked at the two girls
consecutively and then grinned at Zaon, �You understand?�
Zaon
let out a laugh, �Of course I understand.�
Shuyin
put his arms around both girls. He looked at the girl in pink, �Come on
Lonna.� Then the girl in blue, �Lilly.�
The
girl in pink frowned a little, �I�m Lilly. She�s Lonna.�
Shuyin
nodded, �Of course you are.� He smiled at Zaon as he escorted the women
away from the house and in the direction of the hotel district.
Yunalesca
gave Lenne a pointed glance and Lenne nodded. Shuyin was worse then she
had imagined. Treating women like they didn�t matter infuriated her,
although he was really handsome. If Zaon liked him, then hopefully there
was some good in him�
Nah.
The
door swung open and Zaon stepped into the living room with a grin on his
face. He turned to embrace Yunalesca and then stopped when he saw Lenne,
�Hey Lennie! What are you doing here?�
Yunalesca
waved off the question, �It�s a long story, but she�s going to be staying with
me for a while.�
Zaon
nodded, �Sounds good. I just stopped in to give you a passionate good
night kiss before I wandered next door my little bungalow.� True to his
word, Zaon pressed his lips to Yunalesca�s and dipped her back.
Lenne
felt a little stirring of jealousy at the sight. She wished to find a
love like Yunalesca had but there had been no luck. She�d had a string of
unsuccessful relationships with men who only wanted her for two things � her
money and her body. Now that she had lost one of the only two things men
found attractive about her, she knew that her chances of finding someone had
decreased tremendously. She�d just have to learn to live with that.
Zaon
grinned at Lenne as he let Yunalesca catch her breath, �Good night, Lennie.� He
said, and then glanced at his fianc�e, �Good night, my love.�
�Good
night, Zaon.�
Zaon
pulled open the front door and stepped out onto the porch again before turning
and sticking his head back inside, �Start planning that wedding, ladies.
I don�t know if I can wait much longer
---------------------
Zanarkand
slept but its leader did not. Yu Yevon had already been up for hours pouring
over his Summoner�s Arts books. He was a short, potbellied man in his
late 40s with a receding hairline and small, wire rimmed glasses. He
looked more like a library patron then a powerful summoner and leader of the
largest machina city in Spira.
Yu
had become the leader of Zanarkand due to his status as High Summoner through
which he was renowned as a master of his craft. Zanarkand needed a
powerful leader and Yu Yevon was most assuredly that.
That
morning, Yu was in quite a panic though he managed his best to hide it from
those around him. After hearing that the Bevelle army was readying its
machina, Yu had begun preparing for the worst. Relations between the two
former allies had been tense for years but only recently had whispered talk of
war begun to trickle through the leaders of Zanarkand and Bevelle.
If
war broke out, Yu knew that Zanarkand was doomed against Bevelle�s
machina. The man was determined to save Zanarkand � no matter what the
cost.
The
clock nearby chimed 7am and Yu Yevon allowed himself a yawn and a
stretch. He�d been hunched over his books since 2am without rest. He knew that the answer to saving Zanarkand was in one of his books, but he
just hadn�t found that answer yet.
A
typical summon wouldn�t do anything against machina. Those weapons would
blow holes through Valefor, Ifrit, Shiva, and Bahamut. Perhaps Ixion
stood a chance since he was lightening based, but even still that beautiful
stallion would eventually fall.
There
had to be a summon that could stop Bevelle � maybe even destroy it.
�Sir,�
came a tentative voice at the doorway. Yu glanced up at his man servant,
Arnile, and nodded. The servant stepped forward, �Your daughter is here,
sir. Shall I have her wait in the study?�
Yu
shook his head, �No, send her in here.�
Arnile
nodded and Yu quietly closed his books while he waited for his daughter to
arrive. He couldn�t imagine what she could need so early. Yunalesca
usually didn�t awaken until at least 10. He frowned.
Was
something wrong with Zaon?
Yu
really liked his daughter�s boyfriend, although he felt it was high time for
the man to put a ring on her finger. Six years of dating was long enough
to decide if you wanted to spend the rest of your life with someone.
Yu
was shaken from his reverie when his daughter entered the room with a large
smile on her pretty face, �Daddy!� she cried as she leapt forward and hugged
him close to her, �I�ve got such wonderful news, Daddy!�
Holding
his daughter at arm�s length to see the glitter of excitement in her eyes, Yu
couldn�t help but get a little excited too. Whatever it was had put his
daughter in an excellent mood. He smiled, �What is it, Yuna?�
Yunalesca
held her left hand under her father�s nose and Yu glanced down. The
diamond glittered and sparkled under the overhead light and Yu silently
assessed the jewelry.
<This
must have set Zaon back quite a bit>, he thought.
Yu
looked from the diamond to his daughter, �This is so wonderful!� he cried as
she hugged him close again.
�What�s
even more wonderful is that Lenne is in town.� Yunalesca said. Lenne was
Yunalesca�s good friend in school until she moved to C-South to pursue her
singing career. The two still kept in touch. Yu listened as his
daughter continued, �She�s having some financial trouble so she�s going to be
staying with me for a while. She agreed to be my Maid of Honor.
Isn�t that great?!�
�I
heard about her financial trouble. If she�d like, I can have the guard
begin to look for her manager.�
Yunalesca
shook her head, �I think Lenne just wants to forget about the whole
thing. Besides, the guy is probably halfway to Bevelle by now.�
Yu
nodded and he and his daughter sat down. Over the next few hours he
listened intently as Yunalesca began describing the wedding she wants. He
was surprised that she was willing to concede to Zaon�s dream of having only a
small ceremony but had to stifle a laugh when she spoke of inviting the entire
town to the reception. Yunalesca loved being the center of attention so
much that Yu was surprised when she didn�t join Lenne in becoming a
songstress.
�What
do you think?� came her question as she finished.
Yu
nodded his concession, �I think it sounds like you�ve got everything planned
out.�
Grinning,
she pushed her blond hair from her eyes, �Zaon and I want to get married as
soon as possible. What do you think about next month?�
�Isn�t
that a little soon?�
�Do
you think so?� Yunalesca pouted, �but you can do it, can�t you Daddy?�
Yu
sighed. He hated when she pouted. She looked so much like her late
mother and he just couldn�t say no when she begged so he smiled and said, �Pick
an exact date and we�ll be ready.�
Yunalesca
smiled, �May 5.�
Yu
laughed and felt her kiss his cheek as she jumped up announcing that she was
going to have to tell Zaon. He stayed in his seat for a few moments after
she left, thinking. His only child was getting married. She was
getting married right in the midst of a tense relationship so bad that war
could begin.
�Sir.�
Arnile�s voice came from the doorway.
�Come
in, Arnile.� Said Yu as he stood and walked back to his desk.
�Reports
from our spies in Bevelle just came through, sir.�
Yu�s
attention was immediately granted in full to his servant. He focused his
eyes on the man and asked, �What do they say?�
Arnile
downcast his glance, �It�s not good sir,� he began, �Our fears have been
confirmed.�
�Vegnagun?�
asked Yu.
Vegnagun
was a giant machina that Bevelle had been secretly construction under their
palace for years. According to previous reports, its destructive power
was enough to blow Zanarkand off of the face of Spira.
Arnile nodded, �It�s complete, sir.� He paused, as if for dramatic effect,
�And operational.�
