Just Cause (Seifer's Fan Fic)

Disclaimer: Nope, I don't own anything here except for my ideas. o^-^o
BTW: Sorry 4 killin off certain characters... but this is Seifer's
story... Know what? It was really hard to write from Seifer's POV.
He seems so cynical and like he'd make fun of everything in there
and not put time in on it. It was hard! NEway...
Oh yeah, I almost forgot... Alan Smithee and MeekyCheeky asked, so
they got to read this ahead of time + have their reviews inserted in
the story. They also know they're in here, I got their permission
o^-^o. Anyone else wants in, let me know... I'm probably gonna either
do Selphie or Rinoa's, not sure. Or e-mail WhiteWolf, he's writing
Irvine's Fan Fic, and I'm sure he'd put ppl who want their reviews
in the story in there. K, so here's Seifer's story. Sorry again for
the unintentional bashing!

Disclaimer: I don't own these people. Like I'd wanna own any of them.
This is my response to all those lame cookie-cutter teen 'horror'
movies. The real horror is paying 400 gil to see a movie where no
one has any brains what so ever.

:::Babamboom:::
"Dang it Zell, would you quit calling Quetzicoatl!" Irvine twirled
around and whacked Zell's forehead.
"I'm sorry! But Selphie keeps jabbing me in the ribs every ten
seconds!" Zell pushed Selphie over in the middle seat.
Irvine, Zell, Squall, Rinoa, Seifer, Quistis, and Selphie were all
piled in a Garden car. No doubt returning from some daring, unsafe,
life-threatening SeeD mission.
"Yeah sure, blame me! You're just still freaked from watching the
Exorcist 15 minutes ago." Selphie stuck her tongue out at Zell and
crawled over him to go sit in Irvine's lap.
"Just what I need. Like I didn't have enough room before."
"Oh Squallie, just a kiss!" Rinoa called from the backseat.
"Back! Back she-demon!" Squall leaped into the middle seat next to
Zell.
"AAARRGGHHGA" Rinoa leapt out of the back and grabbed Zell's
shoulders.
"Aaaaaa! Quetzicoatl!" Zell jumped. He then crawled up front with
Seifer and Quistis.
"Its me Zell! Really, I thought you were Squall."
"Rinoa, really." Quistis turned, trying to look stern and hide her
smile.
"I SWEAR TA HYNE IF ALL OF YOU DON'T CUT IT I SWEAR I'M GONNA DRIVE
THIS CAR OFF THE ROAD." Seifer screamed, turning his head to look in
the back.
"Cool, I thought only Linda Blair could do that." Rinoa whispered to
Selphie.
"Rinoa and Seifer are the only other people on the planet that have
that talent." Squall murmured under his breath. Rinoa turned to
Squall.
"Eh hem?"
"Nothing honey."
So the group drove on for about two seconds in silence when...
"Eeeeek!" Selphie screached.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Quetzicoatl!" Zell screamed as he tried to fit in
the small area under the seat.
"What is it Selphie?" Irvine asked, momentarily pausing from looking
out the window.
"Something touched my leg!"
"I CAN'T TAKE IT! I'm pulling over! Someone's walking!" Seifer yelled
as he started to move the car to the side of the road.
"Oh real nice Selphie. I'm not walking, I'll just telling you all
that." Rinoa said as she pouted.
"I'll walk if it'll get me outta this car." Squall said, trying to
push Irvine and Rinoa aside to get some room. Quistis sighed in the
front seat as Seifer silently cursed.
"Please not me please not me please not me..." Zell chanted from under
the seat.
Seifer just got over to the side of the road when the car died.
"Great. Just great. Everyone out. Car's dead." Seifer opened his door.
Eventually everyone trudged out.
"We don't have to walk, do we? I mean its snowing. Rinoa whined as
she looked up. "Oooooo, its like flying through space if you look up.
Squall shook his head and looked around. "Well, we have to find some
place to stay the night. Where though?"
"Ha, like I'm gonna just sit around. I'm gonna fix the car and get
outta here." Seifer said as he popped the hood. "Who's with me."
--total silence--
"Fine. See if I offer any of you a ride home." Seifer mumbled as he
went to work.
"So,where to?" Squall asked the remaining 6 people.
"Funeral parlor! Funeral parlor!" Selphie exclaimed.
"Abandoned old mansion!" Irvine said, pointing to a huge building
looming in the distance.
"That old mall that looks exactly like the one from Day of the Dead."
Rinoa said, getting caught up in the excitement. Everyone stared at
her. "What, you guys don't like Zombie movies?"
"The library would be fun, and we could read to pass the time."
Quistis suggested. Everyone looked at her and stuck out their
tongues. "Fine then."
"How about the toy store? I've never heard of a bad horror movie
thing taking place in a toy store..." Zell said, shivering.
"YAY! TOYS!" Rinoa and Selphie went running into the toy store.
Squall and Irvine followed. As Zell and Quistis started to walk in,
Quistis stopped and turned to Zell.
"Hey, wasn't that whole Child's Play movie series with Chucky the
murder doll kinda a toy store horror movie thing?" Quistis kept
walking while Zell froze.
"D'OH!" He screamed.
---
"Dang engine." Seifer thought as he slaved over it. Suddenly a truck
passed by and stopped.
"Why Seifer, what are you doing here?" Laguna peeked his head out.
"Car died on me."
"I'm heading past Garden, want a lift?"
~Hmmm, get a ride and sit in a car talking to Laguna for about 2 hours,
or sit in the cold trying to fix the car...~
"Nah, you go ahead. I've almost got it."
"Okay. Tell Squall I said hi!" Laguna drove off.
---
Zell sat in a corner on the floor. He had pulled a 102 dalmations
sleeping bag around him, and was 'borrowing' a Toys R Us CD player
and some CDs.
"Can't believe them. Partying it all up. Don't they realize this is
the perfect setting for a teen horror flick?"
"Hey guys! Look! Furbies!" Selphie came over to their make shift
campground and dumped off the ten assorted Furbies and Furby babies.
"We can have pets!" Irvine picked one up and touched its beak.
;;Gah Ah Wee Tye!;; The Furby exclaimed. Irvine dropped it.
"They're all alive!" Irvine pulled out his shotgun and shot all of
the Furbies into kingdom come. Selphie shook her head.
"They are... were... so cute." She sniffled, then stopped. "Oh well,
I'm gonna go get a Poochi!" And she ran off down an aisle.
"Hey Zell, what would be the signs of this turning into a horror
movie?" Irvine asked, only now starting to get freaked out.
"Um, walls bleeding; Squall and Rinoa going and hiding in the
employee's lounge for a while; Quistis grabbing a hockey mask and
going nuts; you know, the normal stuff."
"Hey guys." Quistis came over with a hockey mask on.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Quetzicoatl!" Zell screamed. Quetzicoatl knocked
down three of the aisles.
"Calm down Zell! Quistis just found some old Halloween masks. Right?"
Irvine asked as he looked sideways at Quistis.
"Yeah, geez, touchy."
"Hey guys!" Rinoa and Squall came up, Squall covered in lipstick.
"Great. I'm gonna go sit outside in the snow, okay? I'll see you all
later... hopefully." Zell got up, pulling the sleeping bag around him,
and trudged towards the door.
"What's with him?" Squall asked, pointing at Zell.
"He thinks we're in the middle of a horror movie." Irvine shrugged.
"IF ANYONE WANTS ME I'LL BE HELPING SEIFER GET THE CAR RUNNING!"
Zell called.
"Fraidy Cat." Selphie said while sticking out her tongue. Suddenly
a hazy figure appears behind her.
"Um, Selphie?" Quistis asked, pointing behind her.
"Eeek! A ghost!" Selphie ran and hid behind Irvine.
"Wait, since when do Pirate ghosts haunt toy stores?" Squall asked,
staring at the ghost.
"Argh. Avast ye matey."
"That isn't a ghost at all! Its a man in a mask!" Rinoa leapt up and
tried to grab the ghost. Her hands went through him. "Then again
maybe he's real. huh, I watched Scooby Doo all those years for
nothing."
"Argh, you're only making me mad!"
"Um, I'll give you these three women and that guy with the scar as
a sacrifice if you let me live!" Irvine fell to his knees and bowed
before the ghost.
"That be a good deal matey."
"He's kidding!" Selphie whacked him across the head.
"Ouch! It was a joke, a joke!"
"Come on guys, he's a ghost, what can he do, get weird oozy stuff
on us?" Squall got up and pointed his gunblade at the ghost.
"Argh, spoiled brat! I will curse you and send, um... Zombie toys
after you!" The ghost flailed his peg leg and hook for a hand.
"You know, he kinda looks like Fujin..." Rinoa pondered as she looked
at the ghost.
"A little. Um, Hi? Mr. Pirate? You need to have a reason before you
can curse us though..." Quistis said.
"Really? Argh, things be so much more complicated now a days... I'm
doing it just cause I want to. Now all of ye die!"
...
"Argh, I be gettin rusty after all these years of retirement. Ah
well, I call up my minions to attack the lot of ye. Go forth..."
The ghost disappeared.
Quistis, Irvine, Squall, and Rinoa waited.
"I guess it was an idle threat...." Rinoa thought.
Just then Zell walked back in.
"Too cold out there. Besides, I decided I'd rather die with you guys
than help and talk to Seifer."
Then, out of nowhere, a huge RoboChocobo toy came and stepped on Zell,
squashing him.
"Ewww. I'm not cleaning that up." Selphie said. Quistis got out her
whip and tripped the huge robot so it was on its side and couldn't
move.
"Wow, if only he had summoned Quetzicoatl, he would have survived..."
Squall mused.
"Um... I believe Zell's idea about this being a horror movie now."
Irvine said, starting to move backwards. "Come on Selphie, lets head
for the back exit."
"If only we had been smart and stayed with Seifer!" Selphie whimpered
as her and Irvine ran down an aisle toward the back of the store.
---
Seifer stood at his car. He hit it again.
"No use. Lost cause."
He stuck out his thumb. A car slowly pulled over.
"Hey Seifer, its us, ya know!"
"NEED A RIDE?"
Fujin and Raijin sat in the station wagon they had taken from Garden.
"Cool. Thanks." Seifer got in. Then he thought a moment. "Can we stop
at the old Toy Store first though? The others went there and even
though they're annoying, I dunno. I guess I'd feel like I was being
a bad Disciplinary Committee member if I left them to rot."
"It would be funny though, ya know." Raijin said, turning around to
look at Seifer. Fujin looked at Raijin and kicked him.
"INCONSIDERATE. FINE. PICK UP DORKS." And she started to drive towards
the toy store.
---
Well, Squall and Rinoa had decided to look around the storage area
for a service exit. Quistis had stayed behind though. And that's where
we'll start pick up right now...
---
Quistis sat next to Zell's squished body. She touched his head and
said a silent prayer, then used the sleeping bag he had been carrying
to cover him up. Suddenly she heard a car horn blow outside. She
walked to the door and looked out. It was Seifer and Co. She walked
outside and to the car window.
"Hey, what's going on?" She asked.
"Car's dead and Raijin and Fujin are giving us a ride home. Where are
the others?" Seifer looked around.
"Oh, a pirate ghost's after them. It killed Zell already. Irvine,
Selphie, Squall, and Rinoa are in the store and, worst of all, they
all ran into areas where the ghost will most likely attack."
Seifer looked like he was deep in thought.
"We probably should do something, ya know." Raijin said.
"THEY'RE ALL SeeDS. THEY TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES. SHOULD WE DIE FOR
THEIR ARROGANCE AND INSUFFICIENT HORROR MOVIE KNOWLEDGE?"
Seifer considered their thoughts.
"Quistis, if Squall dies, do I become Garden Commander?" Seifer asked.
"No, I would..." Quistis stopped and thought.
"Would I at least become your second in command?"
"Um... Sure you strong hunk of a man!" Quistis said as she got in the
car. "I always did like the DC."
"Cool, okay posse, back to Garden. Those SeeDs can handle this."
"Roger, ya know!"
"COOL."
---
So now Rinoa and Squall wandered in the storage area of the toy store.
"Lets split up." Squall said, looking through the aisles of boxes.
"What? Why? Oh Squall, I thought you loved me!" Rinoa started bawling.
"I meant as in you take that aisle, I take this one." Rinoa immediately
stopped wailing.
"Oh, okay." And Rinoa skipped down her aisle. Squall rolled his eyes
and walked down his aisle.
"AAAAAAAAAA!"
::: Squish! :::
Squall stopped walking. He climbed the stack of boxes dividing the
two aisles and looked down. There Rinoa lay, crushed by a box.
"I guess even her sorceress powers couldn't save her." Squall sat on
the top of the boxes. "Weird, I guess this ghost has a fetish with
squishing people. The funny thing is, I think I'm actually gonna miss
her. She really wasn't all THAT bad..."
Suddenly the ghost popped up behind her.
"Argh, I like pushing people off high places too matey!" He shoved
Squall off the box tower. Squall laid on the ground twitching. The
ghost looked down and shrugged. "Eh, who be I to go against
tradition?" And the ghost dropped the tower of boxes on Squall.
---
Irvine sat down on the floor next to the door. Selphie pounded on the
locked door.
"Its no use Seffie. We're trapped."
"No Irvy! Ooooh..." Selphie sat down in Irvine's lap. "I'm scared."
"Me too. We'll be okay though."
Of course Irvine hadn't realised those were the magic words...
"Sqwack! I'm Pete the Repeat Polly! Repeat Polly!" Seven stuffed
parrots attached to brown log stands flew down towards Selphie and
Irvine. All the birds knocked them out cold. Then the ghost returned.
"Good job, pretty birds."
"Pretty Bird."
"Pretty Bird."
"Pretty Bird."
"Pretty Bir..."
"Eh, shut up birds." The ghost waved his hand and all the birds
disappeared. "How sweet. They're together. Well, I can't go against
tradition, but time's up here. Time to let this store implode."
It was then that the entire store collapsed in on itself. Then a
dimensional portal appeared and all the store disappeared.
---
Quistis, Seifer, Raijin, and Fujin sat in the headmaster's lounge
sipping wine from fine crystal glasses.
"It all was sad, wasn't it ya know?" Raijin asked, while getting up
to put a DVD in the DVD player.
"YES. TRAGIC."
"I still miss them sometimes." Quistis whispered. "I wonder what
happened to them."
"I dunno, but who knows, maybe where ever they are, they're still
having adventures..." Seifer said, leaning back in the leather
recliner.
---
Irvine and Selphie sat in the dimensional plane between worlds.
"Well now what?" Selphie sighed, looking around. "Wanna look for the
others again?"
"Wanna play a game?" Irvine asked Selphie shot him a dirty look.
"Nah, besides, we only have a few minutes before the ghosts come
around again."
"Oh. Well, wanna go stare at that really bright light over there?"
"Okay! I know! Let's go into the light!"
"Okay! It looks pretty, so it must be our friend!"

[the end]
-----------------
Seifer looked through his story on the website.
~Looks good... real good. I'm a genius in whatever I do. Who woulda
thought I'd write a silly-fic. I have to admit, I'm brilliant. I
should be a SeeD by now. Its all cause of Chicken-Wuss and Squall I
didn't pass that last time. Oh well. At least I get my dues for this.~
Seifer clicked on the reviews button.
------
Great story. As always. Great. Hail Warrior Dreamer - SilverDC
------
I love it. I was smart and lived. Another good one. Hail Warrior
Dreamer. - YaKnow
------
I'm not that ditzy! You're a meanie, whoever you are! - AngelEyes4Evr
------
Pretty good silly fic. But Quistis leaving behind her friends? That
just isn't her style. - Save_the_Queen82
------
It's official. All it takes is one really horrid film to end a trend.
This piece did just that. Your characterization was off (who would
REALLY assume that Quistis would give control over a HOUSEPLANT, much
less Garden, to that complete and utter moron Seifer?), the story
seemed too much like some of the worst horror B-movies at times (What,
was "Rowdy" Roddy Piper too busy to join them for this mission?) All
in all, go back to the drawing board. - Alan Smithee
------
LOL, this was great *giggle* the idea of Selphie and Irvine doing a
Poltergeist at the end made me laugh my ass off... And the whole
squishing business... perfect ^_^ - MeekyChunky
------
... whatever... I don't like silly fics... especially ones by you...
- Heaven's Lion
------
Seifer looked it over.
~Hmm, some bad reviews... I guess those people just made 'the list.'~
Seifer walked away to get the list and add a few names.
======
[the end]
Also, here's a list of who everyone is, from Quistis's fanfic to
this one:
DiamondGirls = girls in front of directory
SilverDC = Fujin
YaKnow = Raijin
WarriorDreamer = Seifer
Heaven's Lion = Squall (Whitewolf made up the name)
LoneGunman = Irvine
Save_the_Queen82 = Quistis
ChocoboRaver and Rebel_W/A_Cause = Zell
AngelEyes4Evr = Rinoa
ILuvIrvy = Selphie
When I get more people in reviewing, I'll tell who they are at the end
of the story too.

"Dang it Zell, would you quit calling Quetzicoatl!" Irvine twirled
around and whacked Zell's forehead.
"I'm sorry! But Selphie keeps jabbing me in the ribs every ten
seconds!" Zell pushed Selphie over in the middle seat.
Irvine, Zell, Squall, Rinoa, Seifer, Quistis, and Selphie were all
piled in a Garden car. No doubt returning from some daring, unsafe,
life-threatening SeeD mission.
"Yeah sure, blame me! You're just still freaked from watching the

crawled over him to go sit in Irvine's lap.
"Just what I need. Like I didn't have enough room before."
"Oh Squallie, just a kiss!" Rinoa called from the backseat.

"Its me Zell! Really, I thought you were Squall."
"Rinoa, really." Quistis turned, trying to look stern and hide her

"I SWEAR TA HYNE IF ALL OF YOU DON'T CUT IT I SWEAR I'M GONNA DRIVE

"Cool, I thought only Linda Blair could do that." Rinoa whispered to
Selphie.
"Rinoa and Seifer are the only other people on the planet that have

Squall.
"Eh hem?"
"Nothing honey."
So the group drove on for about two seconds in silence when...
"Eeeeek!" Selphie screached.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Quetzicoatl!" Zell screamed as he tried to fit in
the small area under the seat.
"What is it Selphie?" Irvine asked, momentarily pausing from looking
out the window.
"Something touched my leg!"
"I CAN'T TAKE IT! I'm pulling over! Someone's walking!" Seifer yelled
as he started to move the car to the side of the road.
"Oh real nice Selphie. I'm not walking, I'll just telling you all
that." Rinoa said as she pouted.
"I'll walk if it'll get me outta this car." Squall said, trying to
push Irvine and Rinoa aside to get some room. Quistis sighed in the
front seat as Seifer silently cursed.
"Please not me please not me please not me..." Zell chanted from under
the seat.
Seifer just got over to the side of the road when the car died.
"Great. Just great. Everyone out. Car's dead." Seifer opened his door.
Eventually everyone trudged out.
"We don't have to walk, do we? I mean its snowing. Rinoa whined as
she looked up. "Oooooo, its like flying through space if you look up.
Squall shook his head and looked around. "Well, we have to find some

--total silence--
"Fine. See if I offer any of you a ride home." Seifer mumbled as he
went to work.
"So,where to?" Squall asked the remaining 6 people.
"Funeral parlor! Funeral parlor!" Selphie exclaimed.
"Abandoned old mansion!" Irvine said, pointing to a huge building
looming in the distance.
"That old mall that looks exactly like the one from Day of the Dead."
Rinoa said, getting caught up in the excitement. Everyone stared at

"The library would be fun, and we could read to pass the time."

"How about the toy store? I've never heard of a bad horror movie
thing taking place in a toy store..." Zell said, shivering.
"YAY! TOYS!" Rinoa and Selphie went running into the toy store.
Squall and Irvine followed. As Zell and Quistis started to walk in,
Quistis stopped and turned to Zell.
"Hey, wasn't that whole Child's Play movie series with Chucky the
murder doll kinda a toy store horror movie thing?" Quistis kept
walking while Zell froze.
"D'OH!" He screamed.
---
"Dang engine." Seifer thought as he slaved over it. Suddenly a truck
passed by and stopped.
"Why Seifer, what are you doing here?" Laguna peeked his head out.
"Car died on me."
"I'm heading past Garden, want a lift?"
~Hmmm, get a ride and sit in a car talking to Laguna for about 2 hours,
or sit in the cold trying to fix the car...~
"Nah, you go ahead. I've almost got it."
"Okay. Tell Squall I said hi!" Laguna drove off.
---
Zell sat in a corner on the floor. He had pulled a 102 dalmations
sleeping bag around him, and was 'borrowing' a Toys R Us CD player
and some CDs.
"Can't believe them. Partying it all up. Don't they realize this is
the perfect setting for a teen horror flick?"
"Hey guys! Look! Furbies!" Selphie came over to their make shift
campground and dumped off the ten assorted Furbies and Furby babies.

;;Gah Ah Wee Tye!;; The Furby exclaimed. Irvine dropped it.

the Furbies into kingdom come. Selphie shook her head.
"They are... were... so cute." She sniffled, then stopped. "Oh well,
I'm gonna go get a Poochi!" And she ran off down an aisle.
"Hey Zell, what would be the signs of this turning into a horror
movie?" Irvine asked, only now starting to get freaked out.
"Um, walls bleeding; Squall and Rinoa going and hiding in the
employee's lounge for a while; Quistis grabbing a hockey mask and
going nuts; you know, the normal stuff."
"Hey guys." Quistis came over with a hockey mask on.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Quetzicoatl!" Zell screamed. Quetzicoatl knocked

"Calm down Zell! Quistis just found some old Halloween masks. Right?"
Irvine asked as he looked sideways at Quistis.
"Yeah, geez, touchy."

"Great. I'm gonna go sit outside in the snow, okay? I'll see you all

and trudged towards the door.
"What's with him?" Squall asked, pointing at Zell.
"He thinks we're in the middle of a horror movie." Irvine shrugged.
"IF ANYONE WANTS ME I'LL BE HELPING SEIFER GET THE CAR RUNNING!"
Zell called.
"Fraidy Cat." Selphie said while sticking out her tongue. Suddenly
a hazy figure appears behind her.
"Um, Selphie?" Quistis asked, pointing behind her.
"Eeek! A ghost!" Selphie ran and hid behind Irvine.
"Wait, since when do Pirate ghosts haunt toy stores?" Squall asked,
staring at the ghost.
"Argh. Avast ye matey."
"That isn't a ghost at all! Its a man in a mask!" Rinoa leapt up and
tried to grab the ghost. Her hands went through him. "Then again
maybe he's real. huh, I watched Scooby Doo all those years for
nothing."
"Argh, you're only making me mad!"
"Um, I'll give you these three women and that guy with the scar as

"Argh, spoiled brat! I will curse you and send, um... Zombie toys
after you!" The ghost flailed his peg leg and hook for a hand.
"You know, he kinda looks like Fujin..." Rinoa pondered as she looked
at the ghost.
"A little. Um, Hi? Mr. Pirate? You need to have a reason before you
can curse us though..." Quistis said.
"Really? Argh, things be so much more complicated now a days... I'm
doing it just cause I want to. Now all of ye die!"
...
"Argh, I be gettin rusty after all these years of retirement. Ah
well, I call up my minions to attack the lot of ye. Go forth..."
The ghost disappeared.
Quistis, Irvine, Squall, and Rinoa waited.
"I guess it was an idle threat...." Rinoa thought.
Just then Zell walked back in.
"Too cold out there. Besides, I decided I'd rather die with you guys
than help and talk to Seifer."
Then, out of nowhere, a huge RoboChocobo toy came and stepped on Zell,
squashing him.
"Ewww. I'm not cleaning that up." Selphie said. Quistis got out her
whip and tripped the huge robot so it was on its side and couldn't
move.
"Wow, if only he had summoned Quetzicoatl, he would have survived..."
Squall mused.
"Um... I believe Zell's idea about this being a horror movie now."
Irvine said, starting to move backwards. "Come on Selphie, lets head
for the back exit."
"If only we had been smart and stayed with Seifer!" Selphie whimpered
as her and Irvine ran down an aisle toward the back of the store.
---
Seifer stood at his car. He hit it again.
"No use. Lost cause."
He stuck out his thumb. A car slowly pulled over.
"Hey Seifer, its us, ya know!"
"NEED A RIDE?"
Fujin and Raijin sat in the station wagon they had taken from Garden.
"Cool. Thanks." Seifer got in. Then he thought a moment. "Can we stop
at the old Toy Store first though? The others went there and even
though they're annoying, I dunno. I guess I'd feel like I was being
a bad Disciplinary Committee member if I left them to rot."
"It would be funny though, ya know." Raijin said, turning around to
look at Seifer. Fujin looked at Raijin and kicked him.
"INCONSIDERATE. FINE. PICK UP DORKS." And she started to drive towards
the toy store.
---
Well, Squall and Rinoa had decided to look around the storage area
for a service exit. Quistis had stayed behind though. And that's where
we'll start pick up right now...
---
Quistis sat next to Zell's squished body. She touched his head and
said a silent prayer, then used the sleeping bag he had been carrying
to cover him up. Suddenly she heard a car horn blow outside. She
walked to the door and looked out. It was Seifer and Co. She walked
outside and to the car window.
"Hey, what's going on?" She asked.
"Car's dead and Raijin and Fujin are giving us a ride home. Where are
the others?" Seifer looked around.
"Oh, a pirate ghost's after them. It killed Zell already. Irvine,
Selphie, Squall, and Rinoa are in the store and, worst of all, they
all ran into areas where the ghost will most likely attack."
Seifer looked like he was deep in thought.
"We probably should do something, ya know." Raijin said.
"THEY'RE ALL SeeDS. THEY TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES. SHOULD WE DIE FOR
THEIR ARROGANCE AND INSUFFICIENT HORROR MOVIE KNOWLEDGE?"
Seifer considered their thoughts.
"Quistis, if Squall dies, do I become Garden Commander?" Seifer asked.
"No, I would..." Quistis stopped and thought.
"Would I at least become your second in command?"
"Um... Sure you strong hunk of a man!" Quistis said as she got in the
car. "I always did like the DC."
"Cool, okay posse, back to Garden. Those SeeDs can handle this."
"Roger, ya know!"
"COOL."
---
So now Rinoa and Squall wandered in the storage area of the toy store.
"Lets split up." Squall said, looking through the aisles of boxes.
"What? Why? Oh Squall, I thought you loved me!" Rinoa started bawling.
"I meant as in you take that aisle, I take this one." Rinoa immediately
stopped wailing.
"Oh, okay." And Rinoa skipped down her aisle. Squall rolled his eyes
and walked down his aisle.
"AAAAAAAAAA!"
::: Squish! :::
Squall stopped walking. He climbed the stack of boxes dividing the
two aisles and looked down. There Rinoa lay, crushed by a box.
"I guess even her sorceress powers couldn't save her." Squall sat on
the top of the boxes. "Weird, I guess this ghost has a fetish with
squishing people. The funny thing is, I think I'm actually gonna miss
her. She really wasn't all THAT bad..."
Suddenly the ghost popped up behind her.
"Argh, I like pushing people off high places too matey!" He shoved
Squall off the box tower. Squall laid on the ground twitching. The
ghost looked down and shrugged. "Eh, who be I to go against
tradition?" And the ghost dropped the tower of boxes on Squall.
---
Irvine sat down on the floor next to the door. Selphie pounded on the
locked door.
"Its no use Seffie. We're trapped."
"No Irvy! Ooooh..." Selphie sat down in Irvine's lap. "I'm scared."
"Me too. We'll be okay though."
Of course Irvine hadn't realised those were the magic words...
"Sqwack! I'm Pete the Repeat Polly! Repeat Polly!" Seven stuffed
parrots attached to brown log stands flew down towards Selphie and
Irvine. All the birds knocked them out cold. Then the ghost returned.
"Good job, pretty birds."
"Pretty Bird."
"Pretty Bird."
"Pretty Bird."
"Pretty Bir..."
"Eh, shut up birds." The ghost waved his hand and all the birds
disappeared. "How sweet. They're together. Well, I can't go against
tradition, but time's up here. Time to let this store implode."
It was then that the entire store collapsed in on itself. Then a
dimensional portal appeared and all the store disappeared.
---
Quistis, Seifer, Raijin, and Fujin sat in the headmaster's lounge
sipping wine from fine crystal glasses.
"It all was sad, wasn't it ya know?" Raijin asked, while getting up
to put a DVD in the DVD player.
"YES. TRAGIC."
"I still miss them sometimes." Quistis whispered. "I wonder what
happened to them."
"I dunno, but who knows, maybe where ever they are, they're still
having adventures..." Seifer said, leaning back in the leather
recliner.
---
Irvine and Selphie sat in the dimensional plane between worlds.
"Well now what?" Selphie sighed, looking around. "Wanna look for the
others again?"
"Wanna play a game?" Irvine asked Selphie shot him a dirty look.
"Nah, besides, we only have a few minutes before the ghosts come
around again."
"Oh. Well, wanna go stare at that really bright light over there?"
"Okay! I know! Let's go into the light!"
"Okay! It looks pretty, so it must be our friend!"

Seifer looked through his story on the website.
~Looks good... real good. I'm a genius in whatever I do. Who woulda
thought I'd write a silly-fic. I have to admit, I'm brilliant. I
should be a SeeD by now. Its all cause of Chicken-Wuss and Squall I
didn't pass that last time. Oh well. At least I get my dues for this.~
Seifer clicked on the reviews button.

Great story. As always. Great. Hail Warrior Dreamer - SilverDC

I love it. I was smart and lived. Another good one. Hail Warrior
Dreamer. - YaKnow

I'm not that ditzy! You're a meanie, whoever you are! - AngelEyes4Evr

Pretty good silly fic. But Quistis leaving behind her friends? That
just isn't her style. - Save_the_Queen82
------
It's official. All it takes is one really horrid film to end a trend.
This piece did just that. Your characterization was off (who would
REALLY assume that Quistis would give control over a HOUSEPLANT, much
less Garden, to that complete and utter moron Seifer?), the story
seemed too much like some of the worst horror B-movies at times (What,
was "Rowdy" Roddy Piper too busy to join them for this mission?) All
in all, go back to the drawing board. - Alan Smithee
------
LOL, this was great *giggle* the idea of Selphie and Irvine doing a
Poltergeist at the end made me laugh my ass off... And the whole
squishing business... perfect ^_^ - MeekyChunky
------
... whatever... I don't like silly fics... especially ones by you...
- Heaven's Lion

Seifer looked it over.
~Hmm, some bad reviews... I guess those people just made 'the list.'~
Seifer walked away to get the list and add a few names.
