With a groan, Tidus slowly pushed himself into a sitting position, shaking his head to clear it from the ringing that didn't want to seem to go away. "Did I get sphere kicked in the head or something...?" he half-mumbled to himself, before managing to get his eyes open and functioning properly.

Although at first, he thought he'd gone blind.

A featureless area - white everywhere, above and below, except for two... crap, those were people. One of whom he recognized very well.

"Rydia! What are you- Where- Oh, shit." He couldn't help that last one, because colors were starting to bleed into the white, psychedelic colors that looked like someone had taken acid and thrown a bucket of paint at the wall. Space seemed to be the background, black with white points of light in it, but before that... yellow, gold, red, all swirling together in a nebula as formless as gas, and as ephemeral. The ground had changed as well, becoming matte black with slight lighter rills of color in it, patterns in lighter gray and dull red. And it was just a platform floating in that odd space, with no support - shaped like a sword, dangling chains.

He recognized this. And suddenly Tidus knew exactly what was going on, but at that point, he suddenly became completely unable to do anything other than react to it. Pushing himself up to his feet, he entered the memory at the same time as other forms faded in around him, looking perfectly real and solid - Yuna in her traditional summoner garb, Auron, Rikku looking younger than she did in Gaia, Kimahri and Lulu, both gone, and Wakka, who had yet to set foot on the planet. Tidus himself looked younger, perhaps a little shorter as well, his hair gone back to blond, as all the figures stared upwards at a glowing ball of light that swooped down from above, coming to rest in the air over their heads. The light shed, revealing an ugly, very oversized, mishapen black tick with a glowing symbol of Yevon on its carapice that hovered over them as if staring at them. The stare-off continued for a few seconds, until Tidus raised his hand to rub the back of his head, a habitual gesture - and began to speak.

"Everyone!" He waited a few moments to make sure he had their attention, then continued, turning to look at all of them. "This is the last time we fight together, okay?"

They all looked surprised, but Wakka was virtually poleaxed. "Huh?"

Tidus stepped forward, towards Yuna, focusing mostly on her and trying to look pulled together, in control - he knew what was coming, and it couldn't be stopped. Truthfully, he didn't want to stop it, not if stopping it meant so much hurt in the world. "What I'm trying to say is... after we beat Yu Yevon, I'll... disappear."
