DISCLAIMER: I don't own Final Fantasy VIII or anything related except this story. Please
don't use it without my permission, k? Thanks.
Author's Notes: Hey guys! I've started getting reviews through EMAIL and it has really
motivated me to go on! For some reason, I wrote this chapter while listening to the
song "I Dissapear" by Metallica. No, Im not a big Metallica fan but I do think that
they have like 2 good songs. No offence to Metallica fans! (Actually Im a Linkin Park
and Cardigans fan but thats changing the subject now isnt it ^.^ ) So without further
ado, chapter six!
FINAL FANTASY VIII
No Limits
Chapter Six
With an explosion, the wall of the cave was shattered by the blast from Squall's
powerful blade. He slowly walked out, making sure to keep his gunblade ready and his eyes
open. As he looked around, he noticed that he was in a rounded stone area with a path
leading off to the west. What he began to wonder now, is if Rinoa and the others were
being held in similar areas such as the one he was in. 'No better place to start looking.'
he thought as he began thrusting his gunblade towards the walls around him. All hope seemed
lost as he kept attacking, hiting nothing but stone when suddenly the stone began to
crumble by itself on the opposite end of the circular area. It suddenly blew apart and
standing in the midst of the rubble was none other than Seifer, holding his gunblade
towards where the wall was and smiling. Squall grinned and shook his head as he walked
over to his friend.
Rinoa stood there, being held against the wall by the tall dark man. She recognised
him now. Although she had never seen him with her own two eyes or heard his voice with her
ears, she knew him by what she saw in her mind while she was under Ultimecia's control.
Taimos. That was this dark man's name. He had been the one to grant the powers of sorcerry
to Ultimecia and now that she was dead, Taimos wanted Rinoa. "My dark lady,... do you remember
when our minds were one? Did you not feel at peace with me?" Rinoa began to shake with fear
of the intentions of this man. "There is no need to feer, my dark lady. You are safe now, back
where you should be." His hands glew brighter than ever now, as Rinoas clothing began to change
into an outfit similar to Ultimecia's, but with more blue coloring to it. "Rinoa..." said Taimos
as he tried to look in her eyes. She looked up slowly back at him, seing the dark flames behind
his pupils. "You belong here with me." he said as a tear fell from Rinoa's eye.
Squall and Seifer bashed every side of the stone walls around them, hoping to find the
others, and quickly. "Nothing on this end!" yelled Seifer as he rested for a moment. Squall
looked back and yelled "Nothing here, either!". Squall walked over to Seifer and they both
looked around puzzled. "OK," said Squall "they have to be somewhere. Mabye there are more
circle areas like this and each has two prisons in it." "Hmm.. yeah that might be it. said
Seifer as they both looked over to the path leading out of the area. Without a word, the ran out
of the area and down the path recklessly, but were forced to stop at the sight in front of them.
"Oh....my....god." said Seifer as they had just ran out into the heart of the Marlboro and
T-rexaur pit from before. Every beast in the canyon seemed to go silent as they all looked
towards the two new arrivals to their own hell. Taking a deep breath, Squall drew his gunblade
as Seifer did the same. "For you, Rinoa." said Squall as both he and Siefer ran into the heat
of battle with rage in their eyes.
Zell kicked his feet in the dirt as he leaned against a wall in his own little stone
prison. "Looks like I'm not gonna be leaving here any time soon..." he said out loud. Suddenly,
he fell to the ground in shock as he heard what sounded like an explosion nearby. "Wh..what
the hell was that?" he said as he heard someone faintly call his name. "Zell, where are you?"
the voice said again. It was Quistis and she was on the other end of the wall. "Over here!!"
he yelled back. "Where?" she yelled out. "HERE!! IM HERE!!" he kept yelling when he was
suddenly thrown back against the wall as the stone in front of him was blown open by a swift
hit of Quistis' chain whip. Zell quickly stood up and hugged her, as she tried to shake him
off. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" he kept saying as Quistis sighed and eventually
shook him off. "Ok, I get it, you're greatful. Now, come on! We have to go find the others!
"Hey, do you think that they might be behind walls like we were?" asked Zell. "Mabye, but if
they were, they most definatly would have escaped by now." "Yeah, you're right.." said Zell as
they both headed down a nearby path...
Squall jumped over a swinging tentacle of a Marlboro as Seifer sliced open the exposed
neck of a T-Rexaur. They both knew that this battle was futile, but they kept going anyway.
Using every trick and tactic that he knew, Squall continued to fight to the best of his ability
against the oncoming army of fiends. Squall was then knocked down onto the ground by the swinging
tail of a T-Rexaur, his gunblade sliding away from him on the ground. He looked up, unblinking, to
see a large set of fangs come down towards his face. A million things went through his mind at
that moment.
Rinoa, I love you.
Im sorry I couldn't be your hero.
I was never there enough for you.
We can never raise a family like we planned.
I cant believe Im gonna die...
Siefer, who was too busy fighting off three Marlboros didn't notice the T-Rexaur starting
to clamp its jaws around Squall, but a loud *CRACK!* made him look around as the T-Rexaur was
forced away from Squall by a chain whip. He looked over to see Quistis and Zell in the midst
of the monsters, fighting with them. He stood up quickly and grabbed his gunblade. "You have NO
idea how glad I am to see you!" Quistis and Zell smiled as the four companions began to fight
the brave battle against the monsters. Seifer noticed a cave not too far to the north as he jumped
over-top of a Marlboro. "Guys! There's a cave over there!" he yelled as he stopped long enough to
point it out to the others. They all nodded back to him as they quickly grouped together and ran
as fast as they could past the beasts. Squall was the first to run into the cave, followed by
Quistis, Zell, Seifer, and the head of a now stuck T-Rexaur. "Whew! We made it, guys!" said Zell
as he leaned against the inside wall of the cave, soaked in sweat. Siefer just laughed. "I can't
believe we actually survived that mess.." Quistis smiled as she threw her arms around him and
hugged him tightly. "I was worried about you, ya know." Seifer smiled. "Hey, you're starting to
sound like Raijin." Quistis just sighed as they embrased eachother for a moment. Squall and Zell
however, were looking down at a pathway of stairs, lit by torches. "What do you think, Squall?"
asked Zell. "Well," Squall began. "it looks like this is the way to go for now." Quistis and Seifer
rejoined the two, as the team began their descent into the unknown...
