He actually thinks I still love him, doesn't he? Him and his gunblade and the way he thinks he's all macho. Squall isn't enough...I need more. Power.I need more power. I'm coming for you,Seifer. You have so much stregnth and power..then Squall. I did love him but now, I am lusting for power.

"Oh god..." Selphie cried. She fell to her knees and looked out on the burnt garden of Trabia. Survivors wearilly dragged the dead to a pile, or gathered others who were injured. "Trabia...."
"Selphie.." Seifer looked down at her. The wind sent his coat slightly foward. Dang it's cold here, he thought. She stood up, wiping the tears from her eyes. He lent an arm to her, she gladly accepted it and nearly cried into his chest. Sobbing was more the word. He put his strong arms around her and hugged her.
"Why? Would..she...do..this?" Selphie asked between sobs. He just shook his head and looked down at the Garden.
"Selphie? Selphie! Thank hyne that you've come!" a woman rushed over to her. Selphie turned around and wiped the last of her tears away.
"Mrs. Marie! You're alive! what about Saral? Ben? Jacob?" Selphie asked. The older woman sadly shook her head and clamped her hands.
"The good lord has them now. Such a tragedy. We had no warning, no time to prepare...not even fight back." Mrs. Marie commented. Seifer looked at her.
"Who?" Seifer asked. Maybe it was Rin....
"A girl, on a large dragon. Black hair, cold eyes. Cast powerful magic..she kept yelling something about you, Selphie." the older lady said, looking right at Selphie.
"Me?"
"Yes."
"What did she say?" Seifer asked, looking at the small brunnette.
"Things like 'You'll pay, Selphie! You'll pay for taking him from me'. Only great Hyne knows what she is muttering about." the nun shook her head in sadness.
"'Him'?" Selphie asked.
"Irvine perhaps?" Seifer asked.
"That doesn't make sense. What would Rinny want with Irvy?" Selphie pondered. then it hit her. "The letter!"
"What letter?" Mrs. Marie inquired. Seifer pulled a crumpled piece of paper out of his pocket and showed it to her.
"It must be the other boy she's talking about..that's it. That's the 'him'. But who?" Selphie asked. Seifer nearly gulped. Rinoa wants me? That dumb stupid girl. She was a fling, but she wants me back? I thought she had the hots for puberty boy.
"Squall?" Seifer asked. Selphie raised her eyebrows.
"I don't think that Squall likes me like that." Selphie commented.
"Zell?" Seifer asked again. Selphie rubbed her chin.
"Hm....Does it seem to you that he likes me?" Selphie wondered. I'm sure there's not a guy within a 30 mile radius who wouldn't want you.... Seifer mentally smacked himself.
"Who knows? Chicken-wuss did seem to have a thing for you...you're both cheerful and-" Seifer was cut off by a peircing scream.
"She's back!!! Take cover!!!" a random person screeched. Sh-...Everything went black.

"And in other news, the garden of Trabia was attacked. Hardley any survivors and major damage was done to this snowy garden-" a reporter on the t.v explained. Irvine slammed down his cup.
"What??" Zell stood up. The other customers in the resteraunt looked over at our heros.
"Oh Selphie.." Quistis pittied.
"Rinoa...how could you?" Squall muttered, shaking his head.
"I'm going to kill her for hurting Selphie like that..." Irvine trailed off. Zell noticed a gleam in his eye. Not his normal charming gleam, but more of an evil 'I hate her' kindof gleam.
"I'll help." Zell voulenteered.
"This just in, another attack was made just a few minutes ago on the town of Trabia. A woman with black hair that one girl called her 'Rinoa' . We have live footage of the incident." the reporter turned around and showed a clipping. Smoke flew from out of buildings. Dead bodies littered the streets. Quistis felt her stomach in her throat. Please let them be okay...please let them be okay... None of our team saw the others on the screen.
"Two people were reported kidnapped. Selphie Tillmit, a famous SeeD from Balamb garden, and Seifer Almasy, the ex-sorceress knight, were seen taken off on a larger dragon. A local nun reported that Ms.Selphie was said to be reported dead when carried off...." Irvine's eyes just grew large.
"No...no...it can't be true, not her. Not Selphie!" Irvine cried. He felt like his heart was ripped. He clenched his fists. "Now it's personal Rinoa. Now I'm going to kill you with my own hands."
*********
Rinoa set her two prisnors in two seperate cells. Seifers jaw hung slightly ajar as she floated him onto the cells bed.
"We are rejoined. Sorceress and her knight." Rinoa smiled and threw Selphies limp body against the wall.
"You stupid girl. I never liked you. You think Seifer will go with you, rather then me? That is a joke." Rinoa seemed to be going nuts. She laughed and slammed the door.
