Paine woke early. Despite having found an empty cave to reside in for the night, her body clock still managed to sense the morning light. How much had she slept? Six hours, maybe? Though she’d retired for the night early, her sleep had been somewhat fitful.

She did not enjoy lying around so she left her bed within seconds of waking. It was a cold day, and the chill overcame her immediately. She threw her blankets over her shoulders and set about remaking the fire that had burnt out (within the last couple of hours, it seemed). There was a thin drizzle outside. It would be a mediocre day.

Paine was a little amused by Yuna’s panic, but at the same time, sympathetic. “So I see.” Paine replied, putting a hand on her hip and looking towards Tidus.

“How do we fix it? Do you think Esuna will work?” She wasn’t sure if such a spell was effective against anon magic, but perhaps the more experienced warrior would know.

“It’ll wear off eventually.” Paine responded, calmly. “The magic is limited.”

painethewarrior replied to your post: Never expected today to turn out like this…

Paine nodded in greeting.

“Hey!” Yuna practically adhered herself to the other, glancing around in a rather fretful manner. “I’m glad to see you. Things are… really crazy right now!”

Paine was a little amused by Yuna’s panic, but at the same time, sympathetic. “So I see.” Paine replied, putting a hand on her hip and looking towards Tidus.

He sensed the urgency in her voice and followed her body language. A look of concern scrawled over his face. He wasn’t keen on letting anything touch his home. 

He nodded quickly to her, removing a small, thin metal cylinder from his back pocket. He seemed to shake it once and it made a snap as it extended into a long staff. Two rings snapped outward at each end and fixed themselves tightly. It strongly resembled the staff he owned before. 

Paine was intrigued by the fact that he’d found himself a new weapon - her sword was fairly old, but she’d not changed it for many years - however, now was not the time to delve into such detail. Her sword remained sheathed at her side for now.

“If we are quick, you’ll be back before anyone notices.” Paine started walking away fast, and her voice took on an ever so slightly mischievous tone. Though the subject of their mission was serious, it was admittedly nice to have an old friend to do the job with. Yuna and Rikku were good companions, but ever so tiring. Baralai was quiet and focused - just the way she was.

It was nice to be on an adventure, even if short, with one of his friends again. It reminded him of being a hopeful of the Crimson Squad. Fighting for Spira, it was his dream. 

He was finally accomplishing his dream, but this is not how he wanted it to happen. It took a few years but he realized that Lord Seymour had used him to infiltrate and gather intel on Yevon. His punishment was just, in his opinion. Staying cooped up in Bevelle Palace, not being able to help the individuals of Spira, as his parents did.

He let her lead the way. It was proper for a gentleman to let the lady go first, but he also didn’t know where exactly the monster was. He noticed a small ridge up a head that had a considerable jump down. He quickly moved past her, making the small leap down and then raised his arms to help her down.

Paine quite plainly ignored the arms stretched out to her and leapt down by herself. Although he was a full half-foot taller than her, she was perfectably capable of making the jump. She paused in her tracks to shoot her a look that was half amused smile, half unimpressed raised eyebrow.

“Please.” Paine said. She had little patience for chivalry, particularly not in this situation. He was a good friend, and now that the four of them were reunited she almost valued his friendship more than ever. He had the most politeness out of them all and was by far the nicest, but even this could sometimes get in the way.

“I don’t know how or why I’m here, either. And don’t worry, I’m won’t attack you again.”

Paine paused a moment, and felt disgust wash over her. He did not intend to harm her, and yet he’d referred to her as “the one he made Nooj shoot”? If he truly had good intentions, he had a sickening way of making them known. “Get away from me.” Paine demanded, reaching for her sword. She would not let him have his way again.
