The Death Star
Chapter 6: The Death Star
(1 year later)
Rinoa smiled as Squall called softly, "Come on Rena,
come to daddy!"
The little one year old stared at Squall and stood
up and walked a few steps and stumbled over. Rinoa smiled, "She walked!"
"She did!" Squall laughed as Rena walked over to
Squall.
A year had passed, and nothing about the Death Star
was mentioned, for Rena, was sure human. Squall was still commander of
Garden but they were given a bigger room for three of them needed a bigger
room. Rinoa crouched down beside Squall and picked up Rena and held her
close to her.
"...Ma...ma..."
"Oh my gosh! She said mama!" Rinoa giggled.
"She learns fast..." Squall said.
Rinoa looked at Squall. "Of course she does! She's
our little angel!"
And you're mine. Squall thought.
"Dada!" Rena cried.
Squall smiled at the little girl. "Don't you think
Rena is a bit different? She learns really fast..."
Rinoa shrugged, "Well, she was born from a sorceress
and a commander of Garden." Rinoa teased.
"Whatever..."
Rena looked up at her mother. Fools...
Rinoa stood up, still holding Rena. She put
her in the crib and looked lovingly into Rena's brown eyes, just like Rinoa's.
The hair colour was like Squall's, but still there wasn't alot of hair.
Rinoa tucked Rena in, when all of a sudden, one of the legs of the crib
broke.
Rinoa stepped back in shock. "Squall!"
Hearing the call and the crash of the crib, he hurridly
went to Rinoa's side. "How did it break?!"
"I...I don't know..." Rinoa said as she picked up
Rena...who didn't cry the least bit, instead the little girl was laughing.
Squall looked at the broken crib. "Guess we need
a new one."
"Yes! New one!" Rena repeated.
Rinoa and Squall looked at the baby in shock. "Rena
is just turning one today and she knows how to say a sentece!"
"We better hurry, the birthday party for Rena is
starting soon." They left for the Quad where Selphie had planned a little
party for the girl.

When Selphie saw the couple appear she bounced all
the way to them. "Oh! Let me hold Rena!" She pleaded.
Rinoa handed over Rena. "Actually, she can walk
now..."
"Really?!" Selphie exclaimed and put down Rena to
let her walk.
"Yep!" Rena replied before Rinoa could say so.
Selphie looked even more amazed. "So on it's birthday
it learns how to speak and walk?!"
"It's weird, but guess so," Squall replied and watched
as Rena walked over to Quistis.
"Rena! You can walk!" They heard Quistis say.
Rena looked up into the blue eyes o Quistis'. "I
can aunty Quisty."
"Oh my god! You she say sentences!" Quistis said.
Rinoa nodded, "Only one to..."
Then Irvine went onto the stage of the Quad. "Attention
please!"
The people looked at Irvine.
"Today, we are all here to celebrate our Commander's
daughter's first birthday!" Irvine announced cheerfully. "Now, will Squall
and Rinoa please bring Rena onto the stage!"
Squall and Rinoa walked Rena up the steps which
Rena walked up easily. She walked up to the microphone Irvine held and
reached for it.
Irvine looked amazed but nethertheless handed over
the microphone to the little one year old.
"Hi everyone!" Rena said over the microphone.
Everyone gasped and murmers could be heard going
"She can talk!" and "She can walk!"
Rena stood there, then she continued speaking. "You
are all stupid people!" Then she started laughing crazilly.
Rinoa looked at Squall. Her eyes round with fear.
"SeeDs and humans! I am the Death Star! The only
one in the univerese right now!" Rena declared.
The little one year old was surrounded by purple
light. Her hair grew long, up to her waist, with red highlights in them.
She grew taller and skinnier. Her face looked older. The age of a ten year
old, dressed in a dark purple dress that hit the floor.
"Mommy..." She almost said sadly. She turned her
now glowing yellow eyes to Rinoa.
Rinoa looked at her daughter fearfully. "Rena...but...you're
human! We made sure you were...we..."
"Ha! I knew if I wasn't human you and daddy will
kill me! So I hid all my sorceress powers away, and I couldn't after a
year," Rena said, her eyes full of anger. "Why do you want to kill me?!"
Squall looked at his daughter. "Rena...you know
why...you are a Death Star..."
"Is that why?! Couldn't you have thought that I
could be good?! I can understand life, not to kill people! I would only
learn faster...have strong sorceress powers!" Rena screamed at her parents.
Rinoa slowly walked closer to her use to be one
year old daughter. "Rena...we...we thought about it, if you were a Dark
Star...if it was possible to change your behavior...but maybe when you
got older, you wouldn't listen to me or daddy anymore!"
Rena stared at Rinoa angrilly and sent a powerful
blast at her which sent her flying into Squall and they both hit the wall.
Zell, Irvine, Quistis, Selphie, and Bella quickly rushed to their friends
aid.
Rena look at her parents. You don't want me...you
want to kill me... And she disappeared.
