Quick Notes: This is all roughly 19 years after the events in Final Fantasy 8. Couples are Squall/Rinoa, Zell/Selphie, Quistis/Seifer, and Rajin/Fujin. Irvine will be with just about any woman he can get.

Chapter 1: Kadowaki's Assistant.

The old disciplinary comittee was standing in front of the infirmary, chatting it up without a care in the world.

"Can't belive it, Squall totally hammered me in a duel yesteday." Seifer groaned, holding a bandage on his forehead. Squall had beat him upside the head with the flat side of his gunblade.

"You are getting old, ya know." Rajin teased Seifer.

"QUIET!" Fujin kicked her husband in the shin, causing Rajin to howl in pain. He still hadn't thought about getting shin gaurds. "WHIMP!"

The trio talked about small things for a while until Seifer spotted a student "speeding".

"Speeding." Seifer pointed out. "Let's get him."

"CAUTION!" Fujin yelled a moment too late as the violator knocked them all down, blitzing straight through them and directly into the infirmary.

"Sorry!" The kid yelled. He had also said something else but the comittee couldn't hear it.

Doctor Kadowaki stood over a sick and pale patient, Selphie Dincht, angry over her inability to control the situation and cure her patient. Just then, a seventeen year old cadet slammed through the door and into the infirmary, exausted and gasping for breath. He had a lightly built body, covered by the typical blue and silver cadet uniform worn by all SeeD candidates. The Doc always thought he was the spitting image of Zell, minus the gravity defying hairdo and tatoo. He did have the deep glacier blue eyes and the dirt blond hair, worn short with the bangs hanging in his face.

"Good, you finally got here Alexander." Doc said wearily.

"What's wrong?" Alexander immediatly began to check Selphie out.

"Grat poision, it's mutated through cross breeding with some other creature. We're out of remedies and antidotes, plus, you know I can't use spells."

"Yes ma'am." Alexander wasted no time and cast Esuna, holding his hand over Selphie's face. She immediatly began to show signs of recovery, regaining color within seconds.

"Thank you Alexander. That will be all."

"Sorry for my absence."

"It's okay, you were at the Fire Cavern. How'd you do anyhow?"

"Eight minutes, fifty-two seconds."

"Wow. You got to be the first medic to do that." Docs yes had seemed to grow twice as large.

"I'm the first medic in SeeD history. Of course I am the first."

"You got me there. I'll page you if I need anything."

"Yes ma'am." Alex turned and bumped into Seifer. "Excuse me."

"You aren't going anywhere." Seifer wouldn't move out of the doorway. "Speeding and reckless behavior, those are some pretty serious crimes, little boy."

Doc sighed and spoke up for Alexander. "He just got done saveing her life, so bug off Seifer."

"Thanks Doc." Alexander moved Seifer aside but was now blocked by the rest of the posse. "Why me?" Alexander groaned.

"Write up a ticket, Fujin." Siefer laughed. "Speeding and reckless behavior. That's at least four detentions."

"To hell if I'm gonna give him a ticket for saving Selphie's life you dumb shitface" Fujin said, making everyones jaws drop to the floor from shock.

"...Ya know..." Rajin began, still in shock. "You just said a whole frickin', grammatically correct, compound-complex sentence. Do it again! Do it again!" Rajin began to laugh. Fujin and Alexander both kicked Rajin in the shin, sending him to the floor howling in pain. Alexander gave Fujin a nod, jumped over Rajin, and ran out the door. Seifer started after him until Doc stopped him.

"Don't try, he'll use haste." Doc laughed

"Son of a bitch!" Seifer glared at Fujin.
