Okay ladies and gents. This is one of my first real fics. The first one was considered a 'list' so it was taken down. Please be kind to me!
But getting down to business, this fic is set in a sort of alternate reality. There was no problems with Galbadia, ergo Seifer didn't become the sorceresses slave/knight. Selphie and Irvine both transferred to Balamb because it has better pay for less work. Rinoa may or may not be in this thing.Quistis is still an instructor and not a big part in this fic. Zell and Squall know each other, they're sort of friends but mostly just training partners. Zell, Squall, Selphie, and Irvine are SeeDs. (Seifer isn't because he's a butt-head.)
I'm writing this fic because I want to. By the way I won't be able to upload often, and as new ideas come I'll review old parts. (I'm very indecisive) Please no one mention grammar or spelling errors. I'm aware that I suck at English! A warning if I get to many flames I will take the hint and trash the fic.
By the way. I don't own any of these characters......WAAAHH!!!!
Anyway on with the show...er..fic!
***********************************
A young woman sat in the reserved 'SeeD' cabin of the Timber-Balamb train. She hoped that this would be her last train ride. After 3 train rides one might get sick of riding trains for the week. She sighed and thought about eveyone she had to leave behind, just to comfort the whims of others. She had been transferred to Balamb because they needed a Kateros expert. Reaching down to her side she felt the carrying case her weapons were in. She knew that was not the whole truth. Maybe one reason was what she was.
*Oh well atleast I have family in Balamb,* she thought.
Before she could think more on the matter the train came to a halt.
"Train 409 Timber to Balamb has reached its destination. Have a nice day," the computer voice droned.
*Finally I am here,* she thought picking up her two suitcases and walking onto the platform.
She rented a car and drove to Balamb Garden. There she was to give the Headmaster Cid a letter from her Headmaster. When she reached Balamb its granduer took her breath away. She was awaiting her escorts. Looking around the gates, she noticed no one was there.
She twisted a few locks of silver hair around her fingers when she heard, "FINALLY I FOUND YOU."
She turned to look at the speaking person.
"Hello Fujin, it's been along time," the girl said.
"YES!" Fujin replied.
"Still a conversationalist I see. Where are the two others you've told me about?" the girl asked.
"MEET THEM FOR LUNCH. COME CRYSTAL LETS GO." Fujin answered.
Crystal smiled and walked after Fujin, *Maybe I can learn to like it here.* She thought.
When they got to the lunch room, as usual there were no hot dogs, they found a table and sat down. Soon Zell, Selphie, and Irvine walked in. They were obviously looking for Squall. Selphie bounced over to Fujin and Crystal's table and asked, "Have you seen Squall, Fujin?"
Fujin replied, "NO. SEIFER?"
"Nope, sorry. Can we sit here?" Selphie asked.
Fujin shrugged, "WHY NOT?"
Selphie instantly took a chair next to Crystal and motioned for Zell and Irvine to join them. The two men dejectedly sat down. Fujin wasn't there all time favorite person, and the new girl looked out of place.
She was slumped down in her chair looking around at everything obviously bored. Long white/silver hair streamed down her back and curled at the tips, violet eyes, and creamy white skin. Her clothes are what got stares. She wore a long, dark, blue chinese style dress that had two slits up the side, she wore a long necklace with two pendants with symbols of some kind, an interesting dragon bracelet that started at her elbow and its head seemed to rest on her hand, and finally two large red and gold earings hung from her ears. All in all she looked more like a out of state prom queen than a SeeD.
Fujin noticed the stares that Crystal was getting so finally she announced it, "EVERYONE MEET COUSIN."
"What!?" All three of them asked.
"You heard her right," Crystal said. "My name is Crystal and I am Fujin's cousin."
All three jaws dropped. They looked back and forth and noticed the similarities between the two girls. Since no onw knew what to say it was a small relief when Squall showed up.
"Yo, Squall, S'up?" Zell asked.
".........nothing," Squall answered.
Fujin's head snapped up. She began to wave at two figures that were making their way, through the crowded cafeteria, towards their table.
Seifer and Raijin came to a halt in front of the table.
"This her?" Seifer asked gruffly.
"YES," Fujin replied.
"Seifer, leader of the disciplinary commitee, I presume?" Crystal asked straightening up.
"Yep," he answered in the same tone.
He turned to face Squall and his group.
"What are you doing here, Puberty boy?" he mocked.
Before Squall could say anything Crystal spoke, "We allowed them to sit here. Is that a problem your highness?"
Seifer's head snapped and he glared at Crystal.
Crystal and Seifer's eyes met and a silent challenge seemed to have been spoken.
"As a matter of fact there is," he grated. "Squall is my rival and I'm not interested in Chicken Wuss, the Viagra factory, or miss heroine high near me either."
He finished by standing as tall as he could, knowing that always intimidated people.
Crystal raised her eyebrows and stood as well.
Everyone at the table was frozen including Seifer, she was as tall as him. She stared him in the eyes and smirked, "Am I supposed to care?"
Finding the tension unbearable Squall's gang excused themselves to the other side of the cafeteria, leaving the two giants to duke it out.
They were able to get lunch and were immersing themselves in boring mundane conversations. Zell became bored and decided to try and test to increase his SeeD level again. But he failed again.
Meanwhile the topic shifted to the new transfer Crystal.
"Where did she transfer from Baywatch?" Irvine asked.
"I think the Amazon would be more accurate," Squall said.
"No, from Tijara Garden," Selphie replied.
"Tijara? As in the 'assaissin, secrecy, deadly, Garden?'" Irvine managed to gasp out.
"Dammit that's the fourth time!" Zell shouted oblivious to the conversation.
He punched his fist into the table top, almost breaking it. Fortunately while remodeling Balamb so it would stay in the ground for awhile. Headmaster Cid had ordered shatter-proof stone tables that would be bolted to the floor. As well as velvet cushioned stools that were also bolted to the floor.
"This is pissing me off," Zell roared again.
"Calm down, Zell," Selphie said. "You're making a scene, again!"
Zell looked around to see the faces of over half the students in the cafeteria, staring at him.
"I can't help it," he replied, quieting himself. "This is the fourth time I've failed that test. I really need to pass. I need to get the extra dough."
"You'll pass it eventually, just study hard." Irvine piped up. "Besides we all got to go on that SeeDs evaluation test soon. That'll give you time to relax and brush up on the basics."
'The SeeDs test?' Zell thought. 'That's right I get to parade around, with two snot nosed suck ups trying to act cool and pass.'
"Ever since that incident at the towers with Biggs and Wedge, they've had to escort the seedlings with a full fledged member," Irvine said, mostly to himself.
"When do they post the assignments?" Zell asked.
Squall held up a folded piece of paper.
"I have all of our assignments," he said.
"Ooh, let me see!" Selphie said reaching over to grab it.
Suddenly they heard a loud crash. All of them turned to see that Fujin had Crystal in a full nelson and Raijin had Seifer in a full nelson as well.
"Let me go, I'll pound his face in!" Crystal roared.
"Try it, and I'll slice you six ways from Sunday!" Seifer yelled back.
Soon Fujin and Raijin let go of their captives. The two just stood their as Crystal and Seifer got into a stare down.
Fujin turned and jogged towards th Squall gang, "SQUALL. FAVOR?"
"What is it?" he asked cautiously.
She turner her head and called for Crystal to come over.
"WATCH HER. TOUR GARDEN." Fujin said.
"Alright, we'll show her around," Squall finally said.
"GOOD."
Fujin looked at Crystal, "YOU LIKE THEM. HATE SEIFER TOO."
Crystal smiled at them and took a seat next to Selphie.
"Bye, Sis," she said.
Fujin turned and walked back towards Seifer and Raijin.
"At least you don't yell like her," Zell said. Relieved.
"Only when I get mad," she replied.
"So what did Seifer do?" Irvine asked.
"He just called me some names and just bugged me in general," she replied, shrugging her shoulders.
From across the cafeteria they heard Seifer yell, "Bitch!"
"Asshole!" Crystal replied.
"Tramp!" Seifer hollared back.
Crystal screamed, reached over, and grabbed a stool that was bolted to the floor. With a tug, she ripped it from the floor, and threw it across the room at Seifer. It hit him in the head and he fell off his chair.
"OW! That freakin' hurt! Dammit!" Seifer shouted.
By now they had become a spectacle.
"Serves you right, jackass!" Crystal snapped.
"Come on Seifer let's go, ya know." Raijin said, helping Seifer up. "We'll take you to the nurse, ya know."
The disciplinary commitee left without another word. Crystal tossed her hair over her shoulders, and looked at the others. They sat their, mouths wide open.
Finally, "Well, Squall. What's are our assignment?" Irvine asked.
Squall opened up the paper and looked at each of his friends.
"Selphie: Mark and Raijin."
"Woohoo!" Selphie cheered.
"Irvine: Fujin and Anthony."
"Cool," Irvine said. "
Me: Rachel and Simon."
Squall looked up at Zell and said. "Zell: Seifer and Crystal."
The silence lasted for about ten seconds. Then both Zell and Crystal slammed their fists into the table, shouting 'dammit'. And this time it did break.

Okay how was it? Go easy on the flames. I beg of you. Also consider I wrote this at four a.m. out of sheer boredom. I hope you like it. I'll get cracking on a new chapter soon. Untill then, I bid you, Adieu.
