2nd Crystal

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

[Bodhum, the beginning of everything. This is where the destinies of the six l'Cie intertwined, where everyone watched the same fireworks, and watched the same sunset. Then ultimately, tried to get purged.

But that was all different here. In this little dreamscape, there was no purging, no fal'Cie, no l'Cie, nothing. It was a peaceful marina beach-scape where there was nothing but the beautiful sunset that Bodhum was famous for, the water, and little beach houses and restaurant shacks.

Tourists bustled around, chatting animatedly about the upcoming fireworks for the evening, what they've done that day, or buying souvenirs.

But Vanille herself sat there, watching the sunset on the horizon of the ocean on a pier. This was the area where she met Serah.

What sort of company would grace her this time around?]

Yeah! I remember. [ he shuffled, and unzipped his jacket, but that was it. ] Is this it?

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

Yep! We're in it! Only a small part, though.

[She noticed that he still had his jacket on]

Go on! Take it off. Don't be shy. It's the beach!

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

How is there a beach in a ball? [ he doesn't move to take his jacket off... not yet, anyway. ] ...M-maybe later, if we decide to jump in for a swim or something! Yeah!

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

I dunno! There are a lot of different places here!

[She just nods and continues to walk]

What do you wanna do first? There are shops and restaurants and piers and all sorts of things!

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

Huh... [ so there were a lot of things to do... ] ...Maybe I should change into something better than this.

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

Do you want to get some clothes then?

[Doesn't even let him finish]

Let's go!

[Yoink!]

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

Ack! [ is pulled with her to some shops ]

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

[Pulls him into one of the clothing stores. There are all types of clothes he's probably never seen before. Short jackets with pointed shoulders, tight tight shirts, really short shorts for guys, middrift showing outfits, among other things in a very colourful variety.

Vanille looks around wondering if she should get a specific bathing suit for herself.]

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

[ Naruto takes a look around, eyeballing the clothes. Strange. Not that the clothes they had were particularly normal but this was... outlandish. ]

Huh... [ picking through the clothes. ] I'm not good at this datteba--oh!

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

[Already gone. Distracted! Cute bathing suits!]

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

[ ...girls. he goes to try on his swim trunks. ]

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

[She looks through the racks of bikinis and finds a cute pink lace one and decides it's time to change!

She skips right on by to the changing room. She figures Naruto can pick out his own thing]

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

[ Naruto walks out, grinning. He's made his choice, and by the time Vanille comes out, he's all decked out in his "uber cool date outfit", which consist of awesome orange swin trunks (http://www.manypolo.com/images/polo-swim-trunks/polo-swim-trunks-2.jpg),a dark blue surf shirt, flip flops, and a pair of freakin' cool sunglasses (http://www.sunglassesoutletc.com/images/images/7ujwolxe358.jpg). He is ROCKIN THIS DATE OUTING BABY. ]

Vanille! Whadda you think?

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

[Vanille is in her own pink laced bikini (http://www.juicycouture.com/womens/swim/y81822/lacy-triangle-top). She looks him over]

That looks great on you! You must really like the colour orange, don't you?

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

[ DUR DUR DUR DUR--he gets a look at Vanille rocking that bikini, and stares at her. Scratch that. THIS is officially the best dream ever. ]

Huh? ...Oh! Y-yeah! [ he was wearing orange? Naruto looks down at his outfit, before looking back at her with a wide grin. ] I do! Its kinda my signature color. [ now he kind of wondered if it was because his mother had red hair... and his dad was a blond... hmm... ]

And you must like the color pink! [ his friend Sakura liked the color pink. ]

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

I also like the colour orange and yellow. My skirt's that colour, remember?

[She puts her hands behind her back]

Those colours remind me of the sunset.

Are we ready for some swimming again? This time without the frogs.

....She is officially his dream girl :|

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

[ ...Its official. this girl was perfect. :| she liked his colors! And she liked him! ]

The sunset huh...

[ Naruto nodded a few times, grinning from ear-to-ear. ]

Yeah! Lets go!

¦D A match made in THE BOWELS OF GRAN PULSE HELL

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

[She was also smiling brightly and lead him out to the beach. The novelties of tourist attractions were probably lost on them. Even though Vanille thought they were cool, nothing beat running around on the beach with her toes in the squishy sand and the splash of salt water on her skin.

She went straight to the shore where the water lapped at her bare feet. The sun was getting lower and lower in the sky. The purples and pinks of twilight hanging in the sky]

We can live in the WILDERNESS. And hunt Brontosaurs and live off the PULSE.

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

Whoo! [ Naruto hopped on over along with her, instantly feeling the salt water hit his skin. He let out a laugh, splashing about in ankle-deep water. ] This water feels great'ttebayo!

WE CAN RIDE PTERIDACTYL THINGIES, TOO!

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

[She runs more into the water, giggling.]

I'm glad there are no monsters here!

Yes! And wear cool TRIBAL OUTFITS. >D

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

Hehehe! [ he glances at Vanille. ]

Oh Vanillllleeeee~! ♥

[ SPLASH! ]

Loin cloths? Y/Y? Vanille's outfit is tribal

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

Oh! [She closes her eyes quickly in response to water getting in them]

I'll get you!

[Splash! Splash!]

:|a ....Hmmm... maybe, if its like, those longer ones! With furry legwarmers! AND FACE PAINT!

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

[ he snickers, splashing her back, but not too wildly. u__u He knows he needs to play nice with girls, after all. But that doesn't mean he won't make the water fight easy on her! ]

[ Agh, the temptation to pull the strings on her bikini is all too there. ]

[/refraaaaiiiinnnnnsssss ]

You can look even more like a fox! You'll be the fox of Gran Pulse

[pulsingrainbow.livejournal.com]

[You besta be careful she's also got some tricks up her sleeve. Splashing as fierce as she can!

But then! Dive dive dive!]

Phhht, the Fox and his... :|a precious crystal.

[shallendurehate.livejournal.com]

Eh?!

...

[ ... Oh god. Where did she go...? ]
