AUTHORS NOTE-I still don't own FF8…damn you Squaresoft! This chapter is kinda off topic but…put together a list of suspects if you feel like making me happy.

Chapter Two-Training Center tragedy…

Rinoa stepped back out onto the balcony, looking for Squall. "Where is he?" She muttered to herself. She walked over to the railing and leaned against it. Did he leave? She thought. Maybe he isn't ready for love…or he went to the party. She laughed at herself for even considering that thought. Squall and Party don't belong in the same sentence.

"Hey Rinoa." A voice so familiar seemed to be like a stranger to her.

"What are you doing here Seifer?" She asked sharply.

"Just visiting." Rinoa turned and was shocked at what she saw. Seifer in a nice suit, no gunblade or trench coat with him. "Yep…I'm in a suit. Fujin made me and Rajin wear one."

"They're here too?"

Seifer laughed. "Where else would they be." Seifer looked around quickly. "Where's Squally-boy?" Rinoa looked down and shrugged.

"I think he left…" Seifer nodded.

"Well, I'll see ya around Rinny." Rinoa raised an eyebrow and looked back at him.

"I thought I told you never to call me that again." Seifer smirked.

"I never listen. Bye." He waved slightly before leaving. Rinoa grew tired of being alone on the balcony. Squall had changed a bit, hey he was smiling the last I saw him, she thought. Maybe he did go to the party. She turned around and walked back into the party, trying to find Squall.

(NOTE-I bet you all suspect Seifer don't you?…I won't say anything…)

Seifer walked over to Fujin and Rajin. "Hey guys."

"Where were you?" Rajin asked him.

"Talking with Rinoa, then I got something to eat." Rajin and Fujin exchanged confused glances. "I'll be right back." Seifer left his two best and only friends and walked into the silent halls of Balamb Garden. Now they were abandon but by tomorrow they would be full with students, shoving each out of the way just so they wouldn't be late to their next class.

"Seifer…" Someone called out as if taunting him. Seifer turned on his heel, looking for who had called him, only finding no one was in sight.

"I need a vacation…" He muttered to himself, continuing walking throughout the halls.

"…Seifer!"

"WHAT!?" Seifer screamed, without thinking. Almost a giggling noise echoed through the halls. "God dammit…I'm going nuts…" He tried ignoring the voice and kept walking.

"Come on…" Seifer clenched his fist and looked around one last time. His heart skipped a beat when he finally saw who was calling him. A little kid…but not just any kid…it was Seifer. The small Seifer ran into the Training Center and Seifer could feel his legs moving, though his mind protested. When he reached the training center, the child was just standing there.

"What are you…"

"You…and all of your mistakes…" The child leaned down and turned into a T-Rexasuarus. Seifer instantly moved his hand to his waist, then remembered that he left his gunblade at the hotel room. He started running when he felt something strike the back of his head, then his world went black.

A figure of someone stepped out of the shadows and cast Death on the monster. It reeled back and collapsed. The killed threw the board into the man-made woods. It lifter Seifer's limp body up and looked at him carefully, checking to make sure he was in fact died. The killer scowled in disgust. The blow to the head just knocked him out, didn't kill him. The killer tied Seifer's hands behind his back, then lifted him up. The killer knew for a fact they were over Trabia at this time. The murderer walked to the Secret area, o one was there luckily, and dropped the 'Sorceress's Knight' off the side.



…That's two…


(NOTE-I won't give away the killer until the last/near the last chapter…you figure it out…Please R&R. I need to know how bad this is.)
