It was too much for her. Rinoa
Heartilly could not stand the grief, stress, or agony this whole incident put
on her. The sorceress, Squall, her friends, just everything. Everything was
spinning out of control. She didn't know what to do. Rinoa wanted her life
back, and wanted to be in control. She wanted the others to know how she felt
even if she had to make them feel the same thing.
She looked deeply into the eyes of
the exotic one that arrived there. Her eyes met the one's of a light violet.
She was the one Rinoa decided. She could tell by the expression on her face and
from her looks that she was the one. Light violet eyes, clouded partly by long
dark brown hair. A tall yet toned figure clothed in a black trench coat, a deep
red midriff top with buckles on the straps and a pair of black shorts graced
her. An eccentric weapon indeed, adorned this person. And an expression of
curiosity and cold-hearted cruelty was worn on their face.
This was the one. The one that would
help her, show the others, Rinoa could sense there was something about thins
girl, something of the smell of blood. Alana knew right away what this girl
wanted and without asking decided to help her, regain "control".
Zell walked quietly around Garden.
There was nothing much to do these days. The fight was over. Everything…was
over. Normality encased the serene Garden once again. Cid, with the help of his
wife Edea whom they called Matron, was back at the top. Being the leader again,
but in a way knew he had failed somehow. This, Garden, wasn't all his
accomplishments, and in someway he knew that there would always be someone
better than himself.
Seifer Almasy was still the same
person. Back on the disciplinary committee and taking charge once again. Showing the others who was boss. He still
could not get over the fact that Squall was the hero; he was always the hero
and had everyone's gratitude. Even though he had already admitted that most of
this was his fault, Seifer still held a grudge against him.
Quistis had been offered her
teaching license again, but refused. She had chosen her path and was going to
follow it. She knew where she belonged now and was going to stay there.
Selphie
and Irvine had gotten together in the end was always with each other. They had
their small disputes every now and then, but they truly did love each other.
But there was something coming between them. Selphie was debating whether or
not to go back to Trabia Garden and Irvine to Galbadia Garden.
Alana
and Rinoa stepped out of the infirmary and into the quad. No one was around so
this was a safe place to talk without interruption. "You have him don't you."
Rinoa told Alana more of a statement than a question.
"You
mean Griever? Yes, I do." Alana replied. Their conversation went on
monotonously and as if it had been practiced.
"Train
him. Get him stronger, but don't get caught. He will be a significant individual
in this "operation"." Rinoa said and then left to go back to the infirmary.
Squall should awake soon.
Alana
left Balamb Garden and headed towards the nearest town, Balamb. There, she got
a room at the hotel and prepared herself to go to the fire cavern. She had no
idea how she knew it was there, but she knew.
Rinoa's
eyes were glowing an eerie shade of red when Squall awoke. He looked at her for
a moment then everything went blank. He could remember his name and who she
was, but he couldn't remember important facts like where he was. He do however
know that he was to follow and help Rinoa also.
