Chapter 1: Recovery

There he stood, his back flush against the wall watching the guards clothed in white uniforms as they walked back and forth across the room, searching for unwanted visitors. The man looked down to his watch, reading 7:58p.m. only 2 more minutes until shift change, and when he would make his daring move. Leaning his head against the wall and taking a few deep breaths to relax his tense body he thought back to the events that lead him to this place..

Hyne why did he pick me to do this..

Earlier that week….

"Commander Leonheart, I am assigning you to a top secret mission, and one that is held very close to me. The commander looked at him with a puzzled look, wondering what the hell the headmaster was talking about.
"I want you to travel to the Sorceress Memorial in Esthar, do not tell anyone your leaving and most importantly do not speak of your intentions. You are to travel there and free the Sorceress, and then by very subtle means return here with her. Keep out of the shadows and keep your travels to mainly by foot, failure is not an option Commander. There will be a couple of Seed guarded houses along the way that you may rest in, but they will carry you only as far as the Galbadian border, after that it is completely in your hands Squall."
Squall stood there, dumbfounded, I mean its one thing to ask the Commander of Seed to free a Sorceress, but another part bothered him more….Esthar was atleast a 4 maybe 5 day trip..and he would be with the Sorceress…a girl……..ALONE. Squall put a hand to his forehead "Yeah, no pressure or anything" he mused to himself and walked out of the office.

Back to present..

Beads of sweat ran down the young Commanders face, as the clock ticked down until the time was just right. He could feel his hands getting hot, and becoming tight in the confines of his leather gloves as he tried to stretch them out. His breathing becoming sporadic, even for being Commander he still got worked up. He watched his watch as it changed to the desired time. Seeing the guards nod to each other and exit toward a back door, the Seed made his move, sly and gently making his way to the control panel that stood in front of the contraption that held a girl, a girl that looked no older than himself.

Mesmerized for a moment by the young girl, and how she just looked like an angel hanging in mid air, his cobalt eyes searched her, but not really sure what he was searching for. He finally returned to his senses and looked down at the controls that he had watched the guards operate throughout the day. Entering the code and pressing release he heard a few clicks, and the young girl descended to the ground, Squall making his way to her and grabbing her small frame made a dash for the door, knowing he had only but 2 minutes to complete his mission. He made his way down the emergency stairwell that he came up, and after 2 flights down a blaring and ear-splitting alarm was sounded.

Shit, they waste no time hitting that alarm..

Running and occasionally stumbling down the stairs he heard voices from above him. He finally reached the door at the bottom of the stairs and kicked it open heading for Esthar and the small refuge that was made there by fellow Seeds. Looking down at the unconscious girl in his arms only one thought crossed his mind…

Why does Cid want you so bad…and why now…after being kept in the Memorial for over a year?
