A/N:
Please, please, please, please excuse my spelling. My spelling sucks.
I'm sorry.
I don' own FF8, or the song. They belong to very
respectful people.
Cryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Cryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Cryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Thats all Edea could do right now. She sat on the floor of the orphange which was her home where she raised kids and cryed. She couldn't stop and there was no one there to comfort her.
Yo! man set a
footprint inna di sand
And yuh a rumble and a screw yuh tink it
should a be two
Memba one tink mi yute a Fadda God a we plan
So
when yuh see one set a footprint a God a carry you
How could
this happen to her. Why would this happen to her. To loose something
importent. She never intended to do bad during the Socoress Wars, but
it wasnt her fault.
She always tried to do good. She loved kids,
and always took care of many starting out from her first bunch of
Zell, Selphie, Squall, Quistis, Irvine and Seifer. After them there
were many more.
It makes her sad, this is what happened:
Hurry up and come back, was the last thing she said to her
son, the day his life was taken
She didnt know he wouldnt come
back, he died from the bullet of a gun
And now her little boy is
gone
After the Sorcoress War and everything was old news
Seifer returned to Garden. He had proved that he has changed, and
would like another chance at becoming SeeD. There was some dought,
but he recieved another chance with the help of Matron.
He
trained, practiced and studied and finally he was awarded SeeD.
But
it didnt go well. His first mission was seven other SeeDs and him to
rid the soldiers in the city of Trenton.
She said, help me,
lord help me
Then she looked up to the sky, then she heard a
voice reply
Three days later Garden recieved the bad news
that none of the soldiers made it alive, but they rid all the
soldiers.
That was a terrible news to Edea. One of her
''children'' were gone. She couldn't believe it. She'd never though
anything like this would ever happen. The tears came pouring out.
They wouldn't stop. She fell to her knees, and looked to the sky.
When you cry I cry, I cry along with you
When you
smile I smile, I smile along with you
When you cry I cry, I cry
along with you
When you smile I smile, I smile along with you
Everyone was sad when the news was broken, but everyone knew that
Edea, Cid's wife was hurt the most. Many went to see her, but what
made her really burst into tears and smile at the same time was when
the first "orphanage gang" came to visit her:
It
was the next day after the news was broken. It was a cold Sunday, and
they all went to see her.
"How could this've happen,"
exclained Zell clenching his fist in the air with tears in his eyes,
"He jsut became SeeD. He changed. HE WAS GOING TO BE SOMEONE!
PEOPLE GET SECOND CHANCES," he yelled.
Selphie helped him
sit down next to her, and they had their heads together with tears in
their eyes except Selphie was crying really hard.
"He did
change," Edea said, "I helped him to," she said. Even
with tears in her eyes she smiled a real smile and said, "I
remember the first time I found him," she said. She told them
the story that she told them many times before:
Another baby left
homeless, abandoned when he was two
So the streetside kids at the
shopping mall was the family he knew
Its not easy being homeless,
sometimes you have to do what you have to do
And he didnt have a
mom or dad, to help him get through
Edea Kramer had opened up
a daycare because just a month ago there was a huge accident in Ester
City. The western plant blew up and many homes had gone along with
it. Many were dead, and some survived. But the funny thing is that
only six kids and one adult survived. But when everything happened
all the kids scattered about everyday looking for their parents.
Immediately Edea went to her husband Cid Krammer and they set to
work right away. They build the home, and Edea went to the government
and was able to get custudity of the six kids. The only thing she had
to do was round them up.
It was shockingly easy to round them up,
but there was one of them who wouldn't go with her. It was Seifer.
Every time Edea try to go near him he would run away.
If she was
in the shopping center and they crosssed paths she would smile at
him, and offer to buy him something to eat, but he would shake his
head, and run away.
A month later things kinda switched around.
He said, help me, father help me
And he looked up to the sky,
and he heard a voice reply
Every Thursaday when she went to
the shopping center he would, he thought, secretly follow him around,
but she knew. She would make it so that they came face to face.
When
you cry I cry, I cry along with you
When you smile I smile, I
smile along with you
When you cry I cry, I cry along with you
When you smile I smile, I smile along with you(this is a true
story)
"Honey," she said one day, "You know
all the other kids are living in my orphanage, please come and stay
with me," she said.
"No," he shouted, "I
gotta find my mother," and he tried to walk away, but Edea
grabbed his arm. Her eyes began to swell-up with tears, "Honey,
your parents are dead."
"No," he shouted and began
to cry, "Your lieing, they're just lost."
"Honey
they're gone," she said.
"I don't have a mother
anymore," he said and looked at Edea.
"If its ok with
you, I will take care of you," she said.
"Are you gonna
live in the shopping center with me," he exclained happily.
"No, were going home," she stopped for a moment, "A
place you can finally call home," she said and with left over
tears in her eyes she smiled and grabbed his hand, and they went
home.
The gang all laughed and smiled. But it didn't last
long because the news just kept on sinking in.
It was early
Sunday mornin mi get up and watch di news
Then mi hear seh last
night a Seaview dem kill a yute
Then, mama tell mi seh har church
sista Jacqueline
Just lose har brodda, ova Seaview Garden
When
she tell mi Jah Jah know it mash mi up nah tell nuh lie
But she
know seh man a thug so yuh nah go see mi cry
Everyday and every
night she still a ask di Fadda why
Her brodda had to die, she
hear her voice reply
"He did accomplish what he wanted
to do," Quistis said, which she had her head bowed in her lap,
and her glasses were off.
Squall who was in one state all night
looked at everyone around him, and just left the room. The others
heard silence, then there was the sound of punching the wall, and the
smashing of a chair.
Everyone looked shocked, and Edea stood up.
Squall came back into the room, and everyone was shocked to see
he had tears in his eyes. He instantly went over to Matron, and she
wrapped her arms around him.
"Hes gone," was all Squall
said.
"I know honey, I know," she said, and began to
cry again.
Everyone joined in.
Even through all the wrong he
did he was still family, and he had his second chance. He fulfilled
it, and thats all that matters. Everyone who needs a second chance
deserves a second chance because some will need it, and will take
that chance and use it.
When you cry I cry, I cry along with
you
When you smile I smile, I smile along with you
When you
cry I cry, I cry along with you
When you smile I smile, I smile
along with you
When you cry I cry, I cry along with you
When
you smile I smile, I smile along with you
When you cry I cry, I
cry along with you
When you smile I smile, I smile along with you
A/N: When I wrote certain parts it made me sad because of all the things going on in the world, and all the war and dying. I feel bad for all the soldiers, and everyone who lost someone. These song lyrics belong to a very beautiful song, and I heard this song yesterday, and I instantly fell in love with it.
