Because you are my friend

Zell couldn't help but think about Squall…They had always been great friends but when Zell told him he cared about Squall he became distended…it was all before the whole Adel thing.

'Are you ready?' Zell looked at the black haired girl.

'I guess…' She smiled.

'Don't worry we just have to kill her' Zell became angry again but stayed quiet and just walked past her.

'It's a child…a innocent child' Why couldn't they just leave Dana alone she was just a kid…she was ust like the others wanting to be loved he knew how it felt to be somewhere without your family…they would lock her up and then she would never see her father and mother again. He just couldn't let that happen…even if she was a sorceress he just couldn't let that happen.

'Hey chicken-wuss' Zell grabbed Seifer's wrist and pushed him against the wall.

'If you ever call me that again I am going to kill you I am going to rip your heart out and feed it to you so just leave me the fuck alone' Seifer grinned.

'Sure…Zell' Zell let him go. It was kind of weird. Seifer saying his name it wasn't that harsh and cold like Chicken-wuss sounded. Zell smiled.

'That's better' The he let Seifer go.

Zell was pacing around the room. Vivith was flying the Ragnorak and Seifer was…somewhere. He looked up when he heard a loud knock on the door.

'Come in' Zell hoped it wasn't Seifer but it was. 'What is it' Seifer sat down on the bed and looked at Zell as serious as he could.

'Why do you care so much about a child?' Zell sighed and shook his head.

'I don't want to talk about this'

'Sit down and tell me' Zell walked over to him and sat down on the ground close to Seifer.

'She is a child it's hard enough just as it is having a family like she has…a Sorceress a SeeD a Soldier…look at us Seifer look at us and our past'

'I don't remember out past the G.F's they-'

'You do know how you felt it's something you will never forget…did you never have to feeling you didn't belong there like you knew some part of you, the bigger part, was missing have you never felt like that?' Seifer smiled at him.

'Yes I did but then again you were always there to fill that part…' He stood up again. 'I know she is just a mere child and I know we cannot hurt her…I know I would never hurt her but it is our job to kill a sorceress and if she is it doesn't matter if she is just a child then she is just evil'

'But what if she is like Rinoa' Seifer shook his head.

'She will never be like Rinoa Zell…Rinoa hasn't been a sorceress since her birth and Dana is'

'Seifer' Zell stood up and grabbed his wrist. 'We cannot kill her'

'Yes we can Zell and we will' When Seifer had left the room Zell sat down on the bed. How could he be so cruel Dana was nothing but a child. Did he really want to kill her if there was blood of a sorceress filling her veins…oh he hoped she wasn't he hoped for it so badly but she did have visions…Squall had told Quistis about that she had said so herself. How was this suppose to end nothing good could come out of this for on one side there stood his oath as a SeeD and a keeper of the peace and on the other side stood his friend Squall with his wife and daughter. He knew who he would choose and  he knew that it was suppose to end like this. He had to help Squall he just had to. Zell laid down and closed his eyes.

'I will protect Dana I will not let her die' He fell asleep after some while.

They were approaching Deling City and that meant that they were getting closer and closer to the sorceress if she was a sorceress of course. What if she wasn't. Seifer frowned. She had to be a sorceress Rinoa was one to. Seifer sighed and looked at Vivith.

'Where is Zell'

'Still down I guess'

'Go get him'

'He hates me'

'I don't care Almasy go get him' Seifer glared at her.

'Don't ever tell me what to do'

'Why not Edea did that to and you did what she wanted' Seifer felt himself getting mad. 'Now go get Zell I mean it Seifer' Seifer shrugged and walked away.

Zell was sleeping. Seifer walked over to him and couldn't help but think how venerable Zell looked like this. He stirred in his sleep and murmured something.

'Zell' Seifer whispered. Zell then he leant forward Seifer and gave him a kiss.

'I love you' Seifer gave him a punch.

'Zell wake up you chicken-wuss' Zell looked at Seifer. Zell opened his eyes and looked at Seifer.

'Why are you so close'

'No reason I was waking you up' Zell pushed him away.

'Your scary if I was a girl I had been afraid now because I would have thought some scary guy tried to rape me'

'If you were a girl you would have been rather ugly' Seifer walked towards the door. 'Hurry up were almost in Deling' Zell nodded but knew he couldn't see. Then Seifer left the room.

Seifer frowned when he was outside. Zell had kissed him and he hadn't killed Zell…he felt weird. He had liked the feeling of those lips on his…Seifer stop it. He mentally kicked himself it was Zell that he was talking about.

It was quiet in Deling…it had been like that after Caraway had did…I t had been a shock for the whole world then he was shot…they still hadn't found the sniper but everybody had their own ideas about what happened. Zell always found Deling a fascinating city but now it was nothing but a big cemetery…

'Let's go to Caraway Mansion' Zell looked at Vivith

'Can't we go to the Inn first I'm tired' Vivith frowned.

'You have just slept 3 hours you can't be tired' Zell started to walk towards the Inn.

'Well I just like to sleep' Vivith sighed and after him followed by Seifer. He knew something was wrong Zell wasn't going to sleep that was for sure but what was he going to do ???

'Zell' Seifer knocked on the door but he didn't got an answer. 'Zell open this fucking door'

'If you are looking for the kid with the tattoo on his face he isn't here' Seifer looked at the little red haired woman.

'Do you have any idea where he could be'

'I know where he is but I am not going to tell you' Seifer smiled.

'I could pay you'

'No'

'Please I have to know where he is'

'All right…he has gone to the supermarket to get something to eat' Seifer sighed.

'Look he is my boyfriend and well he cheated on me before so I really need to know where he is' The young woman looked at him with compassion in her big green eyes.

'Caraway Mansion that's where he is' Seifer smiled and nodded.

'Thank you'

'But I didn't tell you' Seifer nodded again.

'Nah I just heard it from an angel' She smiled.

'Squall listen to me it's not save' Squall shook his head. Why didn't he just listen to Zell.

'I don't care Zell I can't leave this place'

'You have to and you have to take Dana with you' Squall turned around and looked at Zell.

'If we run now we will keep running because there isn't one place in the world where we are save' Someone knocked on the door and then a little brown haired girl came walking in with a teddy bear in her right hand.

'Daddy I had a dream again' Squall looked at Zell and then at his daughter.

'What was it about Dana' She sniffed and then she sat down next to Zell.

'I died' Zell took the little girl in his arms when she started to cry.

'Are you an angel' She looked at him with big brown eyes. 'Mommy told me about angels…are you going to protect me' Zell nodded.

'Yes I am' Dana hugged him and then smiled at her father.

'I am going to sleep because my angel is going to watch over me' She wanted to walk away but then she stopped and walked to Zell again. 'Here' She gave him the teddy bear. 'This is for you angel'

'Thank you Dana' She gave him a kiss and then she ran towards her room.

'Where is Rinoa' Squall walked towards the window.

'She…she died a year ago that's when Dana started to get those visions'

'Why didn't you tell us'

'I don't know Zell…I just didn't want pity' Zell shook his head.

'You should have told us Squall' He turned around with tears in his eyes.

'Why should I have told you, you weren't the one's who were with her all the time…you weren't the one's who were sitting next to her bed seeing her die'

Zell walked over to him and shook his head.

'I would never pity you Squall…never do you know why' He looked at Squall and kissed away the tears. 'Because you are my friend'

'Thank you Zell' Zell smiled and then he looked at those big blue stormy eyes. He could get lost in them.

'No…problem' He didn't know what to do now he wanted to help his friend but how…he was lost. 'Squall you have to go you can't stay here if they find you they will kill Dana'

'But-'

'Go to Laguna he can keep you save' Squall nodded.

'I will tell Dana to go pack some stuff' Zell tried to walk away but Squall grabbed his wrist. 'Thank you Zell' Zell smiled and wanted to say something but was silenced by a kiss. Seifer looked at them and coughed.

'Seifer'

'Yeah it's me I wondered where you had went but I guess I know now' Zell looked at Squall and then at Seifer.

'Please Seifer'

'Don't worry Zell I had orders to kill Dana but like you said she is just a child I can't kill her it would be bad and I have done enough bad things'

'Thank you Seifer' Seifer shrugged.

'I will just pretend I didn't hear that and then you will never tell anyone about me helping it's bad for my reputation' Zell started to laugh.

'Whatever you say' Squall looked at Zell and kissed him one last time.

'Bye Zell'

'Bye' Then Squall walked away looking for his daughter. Seifer walked towards Zell.

'So is that the reason you wanted to help Dana cause you like her father?'

'No Seifer' He smirked.

'I guess I should believe you'

'Yeah you should and can I ask why you are here?'

'You could ask…but I don't know if I would give you an answer'

'How did you even know I was here'

'I don't know…guess we have that special connection' Seifer smiled.

'To bad I'm not that ugly girl then' Seifer shrugged.

'Maybe I don't like girls' Then he walked away.
