Chapter6
"Are we there yet?" Selphie droned on and on.. Squall was getting a bit impatient, and right when he was about to turn around yell at her, Zell pointed to something.
"Look! I see a station! Let's go, Selphs!" Zell nearly squeals with joy. He and Selphie ran ahead, Selphie nearly skipping.
"Let's go." Squall ordered and the rest started to run as well. They reached it in a matter of 10 minutes or so.
"What took you so long?" Selphie giggles at the question. Squall rolled his eyes.
"Alright. Seifer, Selphie you take the next train to [Trabia], and the rest, we'll take this train to [Balamb]. Everyone ready?" Squall commands and they fan out. Irvine gives Selphie a peck on the cheek. "Don't miss me to much, babes."Irvine waves goodbye to Selphie and boards the train.
"Don't miss me tooo much, babes," Seifer mocks in a dumb immitating voice. Selphie giggles.
"You're terrible, Seifer, you really are." Selphie says and they board a different train.

"Alrighty, commander, what's our plan of action?" Quistis asked Squall. He puts a hand on his chin and thinks. Rinoa should be attacking anytime soon...so we should be prepared. We should first get supplied from Dollet, since it's on the way... "Quistis to Squall, we can't mind-read, you know."
"Yeah, gives us SOMETHING to work with," Zell agreed. Squall sighed and nodded.
"Alright. Rinoa should be sending something to attack us pretty soon, since the last thing she sent was about two days ago..."
"Which was that coondor, right?" Irvine interrupts.
"Right. So I think we should gather some supplies at [Dollet], before we head to [Balamb] since there might be a trap waiting our return..." Squall trails off.
"Good thinking, commander." Quistis nods in approval.
"Yeah, good plan." Zell also nods his head.
"Alright then, let's go to [Dollet]!" Irvine exclaims. What if she knows that we are going to Dollet......would she attack us there, while we're unprepared?

"I swear that if Rinny hurt anyone, I'm going to show her who's boss here!" Selphie exclaimed, bobbing her fists.
"You've been hanging with Zell to long." Seifer mumbles. Selphie raised her head and sticks out her tounge.
"What's wrong with Zelly?" Selphie asked. Seifer just chuckles and shakes his head. How long is this train going to be? "Hey, Seifer. Are you junctioned?"
"I got Carbuncle with me, and Diablos." Seifer explains. "And I have some magic....but not much."
"Do you need any curaga's? I got plenty." Selphie offers. He nods and draws some curaga's. "We're gonna need 'em if there ARE people who are hurt."
"I know. Probaly if Rinoa DID attack, there's gonna be a lot of people..." Seifer stops talking when he sees Selphies face.
"........." Selphie just looks down.
"Who do you have junctioned with you?" Seifer asked, trying to change the subject.
"The brothers and Shiva. Squall let me use her for a while since we're 100% compatible." Selphie explains. "And I have lots of magic. Irvine and I were trading off, making sure we're both prepared for the upcoming battles."
"Oh." Seifer sounded dissapointed. "Do we have enough potions?"
"Yeah....I think we do." Selphie responds. She then giggles.
"What?"
"It's just funny. You aren't making fun of me, and I'm not biting your head off.. Kinda funny..." Selphie explained.
"Well, I can stand you, messanger girl." Seifer snickers. "The others: instructor, who always yells at me, Chicken-wuss, who's just plain.."
"Blech?"
"Heh. I suppose. Irvine is just to much of a pretty-boy for me, and Squall...he and I just don't..."
"Mesh?"
"You got it." Seifer finished. Selphie giggles.
"Why can you stand me?" she asked.
"Well, I have nothing against you. You've never done anything to me...yet. Good thing you aren't on 'the list'." Seifer chuckled. Selphie shrugs.
************
Rinoa laughed. So...they have split up? Good. Seifer is alone with Selphie...so if I can get rid of her, I can get him on MY side. Be prepared Selphie, you're going down.
************
Squall looked down at the floor of the train,thinking. What were they doing that morning? Seifer's been acting strange............I don't like the way he and Irvine are fighting. I know that noone bu Raj and Fuj like Seifer, but Irvine seems to have a stronger hate towards him..but why?
"Thinking again, commander?" Quistis broke his train of thought. He shrugged and walked to the wall and leaned against it. "I swear...you are becoming more and more like.."
"I wouldn't say it Quisty.." Irvine warned. Quisty giggled.
"Don't Quissttyy...." Zell also warned.
"Seifer!" Quistis finished.
"What??" Squall asked, looking up. "No."
"Yes you are. You got more attitude and.." Quisty started.
"I'm just worried about Rinoa that's all.." Squall trailed off. Is that all that's bothering me?
"oh....sorry." Quistis turned and looked out the window. The train came to a stop and they exited the train. "Zell, go ahead and find us a car."
"Right." Zell agreed. He ran off towards the town of Dollet's rent-a-car.
"We should stock up on hi-potions and pheonix downs, and even upgrade our weapons...if I know Rinoa, she's more powerful then Ultimicia.*i suck at spelling* We're gonna need to be prepared." Squall instructed. Quistis nodded and Irvine just kinda looked around. "Quistis, you're in charge of medical supplies. I'm counting on you."
"Roger that, commander." Quistis saluted and ran off towards the one shop.Irvine looked hopefully that he would be assigned something good.
"Irvine, just um..make sure we aren't late for the next train." Squall motioned his hand for Irvine to stand over there. Irvine sighed and sloppoly saluted.
"Yes commander," he answered, dissapointed. When are you coming Rin......my love, when will I see you?
