I'd like to take this chance to thank terra de chocobo and Ghost Writer no. 3 for reviewing(hell for even reading) and anyone else who favorited or otherwise. Anyways on with the show. Some of these little things will connect to others, in different chapters most of the time.

1. Cloud and Squall.

The warriors stared in awe of the manikin before them. A hulking brute, one in Garland's likeness, but much more strongly built. Quick as a flash, Cloud had sprung forward, knocking it into the air with his mighty blade. Squall lept up, and with a quick barrage of strikes, knocked the creature back down to earth, where Strife waited, like a baseball player, and with a grunt, knocked the abomination flying over the edge of the lunar subterrane.

The others looked on shocked. The two lone wolves had just... kicked the manikins ass... together.... in seconds! Squall landed back with the warriors, and strode over to the blonde warrior. They regrded each other coldly, before Cloud smirked, and raising a hand gave a triumphant high-five.

''Now that's teamwork!''

''Yeah!''

The rest of the warriors promptly scratched their heads in confusion. This was just too much.

2. Jecht and Cecil. Family.

''Well how can you be sure your doing the right thing?''

Jecht sighed and regarded the Dark Knight/Paladin.

''Trust me, you just will. He might not think so, might even come to hate you for it, but it's for his own good.''

Cecil nodded silently and walked off, reassured now. After all the man was a father himself, and Tidus turned out fine. He hated Jecht, but in the end, he was stronger for it.

3. Tidus, Zidane and Warrior of Light. Awesome.

Light blocked Tidus' sword strike with his shield before turning swiftly and parrying Zidane's sneak attack, caught off guard, Zidane was shouldered back, and fell off the edge of the platform. Light turned back and rapidly did a series of slashes, finishing with a shield bash. Tidus fell back, but recovered and put up his guard. Zidane landed beside him panting heavily, and regarded their leader. He whispered frantically to Tidus

''Holy crap, this guy is impossible! He moves so fast!''

''Yeah I know, and I thought I was fast.''

They glanced at each other, and both smirked.

''You thinking what I'm thinking?''

''I dunno, if what your thinkin' is the greatest strategy ever, then maybe.''

''You sure you're up for this? That one time we did this was kinda flukey.''

''Don't worry, this'll work! Now let's GO!''

Tidus laughed as he sprinted towards the Warrior, anticipating a strike, Light raised his shield, exactly as the two were planning. Tidus jumped up, and launched himself off the shield, while Zidane jumped off his tower. As they were about to meet, Tidus started spinning, and Zidane wrapped his tail around his leg, praying Tidus' aim would be true. Tidus kicked out, and the little blond boy let go and flew towards the Warrior. With a triumphant cry, his feet connected with his head, effectively knocking him out.

As they both landed they launched forward laughing, and embraced. They let go and jumped about, both talking a mile a minute.

''OHMYGODDIDYOUSEETHAT?! ITWASSOTOTALLYAWESOMEICAN'TBELIEVEITACTUALLYWORKED!''

''WHATTYAMEAN,DIDN'TYOUTHINKICOULDDOIT!''

They both stopped when they noticed Light groaning softly. With one look, they could tell one thing.

When he woke up.

They.

Were.

Dead.

...But it was TOTALLY worth it.

4. Sephiroth and Squall. Retort.

Sephiroth floated down slowly, blade drawn, and taunted.

''What does a beast know?''

Squall looked up at him, and with a narrowing of the eyes, growled back

''How to kick your ass that's what!''

5. Terra and Squall. Comfort.

He wouldn't admit, at least not out loud, how much he actually enjoyed Terra's company. All he did was save her from that manikin, next thing he knew, she was following him like a lost puppy, always eager to help, to fight, like she was trying to prove herself, and after every fight, she would check him over. He didn't understand why he didn't just tell her to go away, leave him alone. But there was something that stopped him.

As they walked along, he took a mental note that she was looking tired, but kept on going, she had promised not to slow him down, and by the way she was keeping quiet, she meant to keep to her promise. After another ten minutes, she was practically asleep on her feet. Squall decided to take pity then.

''We should rest up, it's been a long day.''

Terra seemed shocked that he had spoken, and took a moment to get her bearings.

''Huh, n-no, you don't have to stop, I'm fine, not tired a-''

She was interrupted by a long yawn. She went red with embarrassment, and walked on. He sighed. When did women get so stubborn. Acting impulsively, he reached out and took her arm, effectively halting her. He glared at her, then murmured.

''Look, it's been a long day, we both need rest, you're not slowing me. Now come on.''

With that he marched towards the nearest outcropping, and listened for her soft footsteps, after all, he wasn't going to leave her behind. Later, they both sat looking into the fire, which she had produced with minimum effort, completely silent. Every now and then she would look at him, or the surroundings, before returning to the fire. Finally tired of the silence she spoke up.

''So Squall, what age are you?''

He stayed silent.

''...Wow, aren't we talkative. Fine, I'm 18, now it's your turn.''

He rolled his eyes, before muttering something she barely caught.

''I'm 17.''

She gasped audibly. 17, but he looked so much older, she would have guessed at least 20!

''Wow that's amazing. I mean, that your so young... Not that you look old or anything! Oh dear.''

''Just go to sleep Terra.''

With that he rolled over, and resigned himself to sleep. Terra sighed quietly and whispered

''Night then Squall, oh don't worry, I'm not cold or anything.''

She lay back, looking up at the stars, tracing some constellations with her fingers, before shivering. It was so cold. She looked over at the sleeping warrior, and feeling brave crawled closer to him. Still cold, she decided to go the whole hog, and crawled right up beside him, hoping he was asleep and wouldn't notice. It was to her immense surprise when he turned and wrapped an arm around her. She blushed furiously, but at least she wasn't cold. Squall sighed contentedly.

''How's that?''

''Uum, fine... Thanks Squall.''

''Don't mention it.... Really don't Zidane and Bartz will have a fit.''

They fell asleep under the stars, and Squall finally realised why he didn't push her away.

And it scared him shitless.

Well there you have it folks, the next chapter! Please review, and tell me what you think! Thanks for reading and good night! Sorry if anyone seems OOC, but that's the way I'm painting it sooo sorry.
