Chapter One-the beginning
"I cannot believe you!" cried Rinoa Heartily with bitter tears in her brown eyes. She glared at Selphie Tilmitt, who stood there, frozen in place.
"Rin."Selphie said softly, reaching out for Rinoa's arm. Rinoa snatched it away before Selphie could touch her.
"Don't you touch me," Rinoa snapped. "Don't you speak to me again!"
Selphie watched her with hurt eyes as Rinoa stomped away angrily. Just then, Quistis emerged from her classroom. She barely missed Rinoa's angry steps when she peeked out.
"Rinoa!" Quistis called over her shoulder. "Be careful where you walk!"
Rinoa turned back and didn't respond. She just glanced at Quistis with hatred in her eyes. Quistis, realizing this, didn't say anymore. She looked at Selphie, who was standing there, staring at the floor with tears spilling out.
"Sell.phi.?" Quistis approached her gently. "What happened?"
Selphie looked up, her eyes wet. "Rinoa."She began "She thinks I stole Squall. I guess-" She said, shuffling her feet. "It appeared we were flirting with each other."
Quistis looked up at the sky while talking. "Friends should never fight over matters of boys. It's ridiculous. But yet, it happens." She sighed.
"I thought she trusted me."Selphie whispered, more to herself than to Quistis. "I really did."
It was chaos at Balamb Garden. Otherwise known as lunchtime.
"Hot dog! Hot dog! Hot dog!" Chanted Zell Dincht as he raced over to the lunch counter. He jumped up and down in joy when he realized he was only the one about the hundredth person in line. "I get one today!"
Selphie sat alone at a table, stabbing at her spaghetti. She resisted the urge to look up at Rinoa, who was hanging out with her other friends, and laughing. This isn't fair, Selphie thought angrily. Why should I suffer when she is the one wrong?
She then felt a presence above her.
"Oh look," A snotty voice said. Selphie looked up. It was Rinoa.
"What?" Selphie asked hastily. She didn't want Rinoa to mess around with her anymore than she had to.
"You very know what" Rinoa sneered. She grabbed Selphie's plate of spaghetti and dumped it on her hair. Rinoa and her friends giggled meanly.
Selphie gasped as she felt the gooey pasta trickle down her precious hair. She stood up, facing Rinoa. "What did you do THAT for?" Rinoa smirked. "Oh, your hair! How tragic!" She mocked Selphie crying over her hair, and her friends burst into laughter.
Selphie squinted angrily at Rinoa. She took a carton of milk and tossed it at Rinoa's top, soaking it.
"You little bitch!" Rinoa cried, and she leapt back. She took a long look at Selphie before dashing to the girl's room.
Selphie stared after her, uneasy, the old Rinoa would have done something if somebody she didn't like did something she didn't like. But what about the new Rinoa? She sighed, disturbed.
"Selphie?" asked a kind voice. Selphie turned around, and saw Abby, Zell's girlfriend, standing there.
"HI, Abby," Selphie greeted her, in a depressed tone of voice.
"Would you like to sit with Zell and me?" Abby asked her. "I noticed you were sitting alone and wondered.well, you know."
Selphie smiled sadly. "Sure."
After school, Selphie wandered the way back to the dorm. Usually she would have walked with Rinoa, but not today. Not after what happened at lunch. Or, she slumped down, after what she did to me. Why doesn't she trust me? She kicked at the ground, causing some dust to rise up. She coughed.
Some girls rushed by, giggling meanly. Apparently they were one of Rinoa's friends, by the way they looked at her in disgust. Ah, why did Rinoa have to be so popular, Selphie thought as they threw some dirt at her. She wouldn't have guessed it, Rinoa being new to Balamb at all. But I guess that not everything is impossible. She only wished that the same possibilities were open for her.
Selphie soon came to her dorm. She turned the key.and found her room ransacked. Her jaw fell when she saw the damaged. Drawer doors were open and her things were trashed. Toilet paper draped over everything. Her sheets were torn apart.
Tears burned at the corner of Selphie's eyes. How dare they do this! She thought, while attempting to stiffle the tears, I did nothing wrong! Finally, she gave up and just slumped down, crying silently.
There were footsteps, then, "Oh, Selphie, I'm so sorry!" Looking up, Selphie hoped it was Rinoa apologizing, but it was only Quistis. Her vision was blurred when Quistis handed her a napkin.
"I can't believe this," Selphie cried as she blew her nose. "I didn't do anything! I never knew that Rinoa could be.so.cruel."
"It's okay, it's okay," Quistis said, comforting her. She walked around, and cleaned off some of the toilet paper. "Ai ya! Rinoa and her friends certainly have a made a mess! But I don't know how they could have got in." Her voice trailed off when she saw the screwdriver marks on the door.
Selphie shook her head helplessly. "I thought she was a good person! I never knew she could be so heinous!"
"People do evil things when they are angry. Nothing else comes to them but bursts of evil thoughts, and they use those thoughts to plot something against the person. Those are human thoughts, and until we can learn to control them, the world will not be safe." Quistis bit her lip as she looked around the room. "If you are going to get this place clean again, Selphie, we better start."
Selphie jumped up as she remembered something. She dashed to a fallen drawer and dug vigorously through it. "Omigosh. They took my locket!" Tears squirmed out of her eyes once again. "Those little bitches! They are going to pay! They took my locket!" She shook while she sat there, crying.
"This has gone too far." Selphie heard Quistis' crack of her whip. "Teasing you at lunchtime, taking your books, ransacking your room-and now this. Selphie, get up, stop crying-we are going to do something about Rinoa."
