Final Fantasy VIII sound: Where I Belong
Night feel and the stars were shining through the window of the 7th Heaven Bar in Edge. Meku looked at night sky as the day of events of the Ragnarok followed through her mind. Meku remembered that day clearly the day when Ragnarok called upon the maker Orphan. The Communicator summoned the Guardians of Gaia and defeated Orphan. The world that Orphan had created was beginning to crumble all around him as the roots of the Xross Tree began to wither leaving the planet's very core of sucking out the lifestream itself. All of her friends were there watching as the tree fell to its doom. The ground below her and the Communicator Hikari was falling apart. Hikari fell grabbing onto a rock that stuck Meku ran to Hikari grabbing her hand as from the distance all of their friends could only watch the sight from the Highwind. As the all witnesses the glowing orb that Orphan resided in explode with her and Hikari in it. Meku remembered waking up in her room seeing a note in her desk it was from Hikari. Meku walked of her room seeing her friends there by her side as they all saw the letter Hikari had left. The High Summoner asked if Zak could read the letter to them and he did just that:
Dear AVALANCHE no…my friends,
Thank you for all taking me in, but as you all know I must return to my world. I know this must be hard to hear and I will always cherish our friendship together…the times we laughed the times we shared as friends…no as a family. You all treated me as if I was one of you all and I must thank you all for that. To Meku I know that we never met to our differences as sometimes we always fought each other over meaningless squabbles, but even after all that you are still me best friend…to the High Summoner Zero…I always wanted to tell you this, but I always liked your birth name better…Naieki. Ha, ha, ha, you I know you were running from your past trying to make a difference in this world…but someday you must try to face that past and concur it. To Fair you're the one that brought everyone's spirits up even when all was down I know that someday you'll reach your goal to be a SOLDIER 1st Class umm...and try not to get yourself killed…To Zak you…love me I know that now but my dear Zak my heart belongs to someone else hopefully someday you'll find someone to share your heart with…Well this may be the last time I ever see you all thank you all for everything…
Love Hikari Katana

But…after Hikari left months past by and Fair finally got into SOLDIER 1st Class both him and Zak went with the great Sephiroth on a mission to Zak's hometown Nibelhiem. Sephiroth got out of control and Nibelhiem burnt to the ground. Fair and Zak concurred Sephiroth and was captured 4 months past and both of them escaped from Shinra. Fair only made to as far as the outskirts of Midgar…and died leaving a mako poisoned Zak alone in the wake…Soon more of AVALANCHE's members began to dwindle Yuri Volte Hyuga and Alice Elliot became victims of the Émigré Manuscript's curse…Squall Leonhart became a mercenary and went with his grandfather who was a hero from incident involving a machine called Metal Gear, he was never heard from again. Cissnei Briefs returned home to her mother and father at Capsule Corp. The family heard of the death of her older Fair and stayed in mourning…For Zak he now runs a delivery business with his friends Tifa, Meku, and Rinoa…as for Yusei…he returned to Neo Damino and became a professional D-Wheel racer. Meku stopped getting letters from him 2 months back the word is that they just couldn't work it out…as for the High Summoner he left on a journey to find himself…he soon disappeared…as well as the hope of humanity…that's what happened to AVALANCHE. The world's greatest defenders died or were just tired of fighting pointless and meaningless wars. Meku left to bed knowing there was no point in staying up anylonger…
