A/N: Hello!!! Did I
keep some of you waiting? -_-' sorry if I did. Well, here's Chapter 7. Hopefully, this is would be my last chapter….I think.

Ultimecia melted
away into oblivion, her cries were haunting to hear.
Quistis, didn't
care if Ultimecia died; her attention was on Squall. A million thoughts burst through her head. No! This cannot be happening. Dammit!! Everything was supposed to be all right!!! Squall!! NO!! Look what you have done! This is all wrong……this cannot be
real…this cannot be happening…this is a mistake…She stood there, tears
brimming in her eyes.
Squall grunted in
agony. Rinoa sobbed over him, holding
his close. "Squall…you idiot. W-why did you d-do that??" her voice was
barely audible. He looked up at her.
"I….I didn't want
to lose you….again…"
Rinoa looked
confused. "Squall, you are NOT gonna
die on me, you got that?" She closed
her eyes and cast Curaga.
"Ugh…"the dark SeeD
groaned in pain. Rinoa started to
sobbed harder.
"No!! You have to
be cured!!" She cast another Curaga
spell. It didn't work. "Dammit!"
Quistis walked
over, her eyes were red from crying. She knelt down in front of Squall.
"Squall…"
He looked at
her. "H-hey Quisty…don't worry about
me…"
Quistis's lips
began to tremble. "This wasn't supposed
to happen."
"I know…" he turned
to Rinoa, and lifted his hand to her face. "But I…I love…" His hand fell limp to the ground. Quistis's and Rinoa's eyes went large with
sadness and fear.
"*sob* Squall…I
love you…" Rinoa lifted his head up, and planted a gentle kiss on his lips.
Quistis stood up
and walked to another place and cried. Squall,
you're gone. How could this be? She turned around to Rinoa. "Rinoa….there's something I have to tell
you."
Rinoa raised her
head. "W-what?" her voice was frail and
soft.
"Rinoa…" Quistis
said in between chokes, "Squall came from the future to bring you back. You were dead……and he couldn't stand
it. He consulted to Dr. Odine to arrange
the portals to go back to the past, at the battle of Ultimecia…"
Rinoa looked
bewildered. "What?"
"…he came back to
the past, and tried to change things…to bring you back…from the past."
"…he sacrificed
himself for….me…."

*One week after the
battle*
It was the SeeD
Ball. Everyone has come to congratulate
the group that defeated Ultimecia, but also to mourn the death of a great
hero.
Rinoa stood at the
balcony. She had been silent ever since
the battle. She didn't speak to anyone,
even thought her friends, Zell, Selphie, Irvine, and Quistis, comforted her,
and even tried to make her talk, Rinoa still wouldn't.
Her love was
lost…lost forever…but he still remains in her heart. She looked up, and sighed. "Squall, when will we see shooting stars again?" She remembered the time that Squall and
herself were at the Graduation Ball, when they saw a shooting star at the same
time.
"Was it fate? Did it bring us together? Was it fate that brought us apart?" she cried softly. "Squall, I missed you so much. Please come back to me." Tears
flowed down her pale face, but she didn't bother wiping it away. Rinoa closed her eyes, and let the cool wind
comb through her ebony hair.
Something stirred
her, and she opened her eyes. It was a
shooting star. She made a wish, with a
small grin on her lips. "Squall, come
back to me," she whispered. She hung
her head low, looking at the bottom of the Garden, and sighed wistfully.

The whole ballroom
fell dead silent, even the band. Everyone
focused their attention to a dark figure coming down the stairway….
……her wish came
true…..
The End
