A/N: 5 reviews!!!!! I'm not really expecting it for every chapter just the first two or three, just so I know ppl are reading. Neways here it is…. Chapter two….

See ya around……maybe

Waking up is weird. It's like a long blink, you fall asleep (Close your

eyes)

then wake up (Open your eyes). A long, long blink. Anyways, I

opened my eyes  and

looked around. A lot of white......the dorms weren't this white. I

Quickly sat

up to look around some more but couldn't concentrate on anything.

Some one had

stabbed me in the stomach....not really but it felt that way

"Ahhhhh!" it just came out as I fell back onto to bed. I hadn't

wanted to

scream. I just looked around some from the bed. Probably the

infirmary? Oh yeah

the fight....... when I get my hands on that lil' fucker I'm

gonna..........

"Alex is everything ok?" some woman in white asked, running in,

probably the

doctor. Followed by...

"What happened?" and....

"Is everything ok?" all three of them looked at me with pitying eyes,

Squall the

biker man, the doctor, and Irvine. Actually Squall looked as if he

couldn't care

less, so I ignored him.

"Why am I here? I don't want to be here, I want to take my SeeD

test." I hate it

when people look directly at me, or just at me. I just hated being

looked at period.

"You were injured last night in a fight with Seifer. Do you

remember?" the

doctor seemed to like hearing her self speak so I didn't cut her off.

"Yeah," instead I replied back with snappy answers. "I want to

leave" I sat up

and the pain returned, but since I didn't lie back down the pain was

now more

like someone twisting the knife while it was in my stomach. I

closed my eyes

tight and felt the tears welling up. Instead of crying I brushed them

away and

re-punctured my lip where I had last night. Ah blood, a familiar

taste from

previous times of biting my lip. I do that often.

"No, no, don't do that." Wow, someone cared what I did for once.

My mom's just

like 'your body, your choice' But being me I just ignored him too

and stood up. I covered my

face with my

hands and realized that pain came when I touched around my eye.

Oh yeah, that ass

wipe punched me in the eye too.

"I need to get changed an...and ready for class" I was stuttering.

Why? Oh well,

I'll just stumble around in this disoriented state that I'm in until I find

my

dorm.

I leaned on the wall for support and slowly started out of the room.

She said a some stuff that I couldn't understand ''cause I was still

trying to

make out the blurred objects in front of me.

"Irvine, I can tell that she's not going to stay here all day so will you

watch

her today?" now that I heard.

"Yeah sure," was he really going to spend all day with me? Cool!

Wait why am I

getting excited over this? It's just a guy I fell on yesterday.

"I'm going now," I left the room. I got halfway there when my legs

gave way and

I fell. The whole time they were shaking but.....yeah. I had left

before Irvine

and he went the other way around. And I think he turned the

corner just as I

fell. He jogged over to me and helped me the rest of the way to my

dorm. I'm

guessing that he knew that 'cause he didn't make a big fuss about

it, or say

much, 'till we got to my room.

~*~

The person who I shared a room wasn't there thank god. And I

decided not to go

to classes so we just sat on my bed and talked.

"So, how did the whole Seifer fight thing start?" He thought I

started it, I

could tell by his eyes. I can tell a lot of things by looking at peoples

eyes. I

took a deep breath

"I was hungry and took four hot dogs and he came up to me sayin'

isn't that a

bit much pig, or somethin'' like that and I'm like 'what's it to you'

he's like

'you can't eat all of them' and I'm like 'watch me' and he started to

take one

but I kicked him in the shins and he says 'bitch' as I pass him and

pulls my

hair back to him and knocked the tray outta my hands! And I'm like

'asshole' and

punched him in the stomach and tried to leave again and he

tripped me and I

tried to punch him again but some guy held me back and Seifer

punched me but I

didn't flinch so he did it again in my eyes and same, I didn't flinch

so he

kicked me really hard in the stomach and I curled up cause I

couldn't breath and

he elbowed me in the back. Then he kicked me some more while I

was down and then

you and Squall I think it was, came. "

Did I just say all that? Oh my god, I never say that much to anyone

accept my

parrot! Oh jeez now he's gonna think I'm a freak, but why do I

care? I want to

talk to Zoro!

"Interesting.........so what classes are you taking?" why did he just

shrug it

off?

"Um, I haven't decided yet. But I uh.......hear that there's a

Gunblade class

here that I'm so taking." Gunblade are so cool and I can do some

fancy moves with

them.

"Really? Well then you'll be in Squall's class, he's the Gunblade

specialist in

the school so he teaches it." Hotshot leather pants guy is a

gunblade

specialist?!

"Cool, what do you teach?" Probably rodeo, haha.

"I just became a SeeD a month or two ago. I don't teach anything."

"Cool"

We talked for an hour or so about me, him the garden, Zoro, and

then my

internal clock (A.K.A. my stomach) told me that it was lunch time.

But what happened to Seifer? Is he gonna be in the cafeteria?

"What's up?" I guess Irvine saw the 'I don't want to go in there' look on my

face as we approached the cafeteria.

"Um nothing" I got rid of that look fast

"I'm just gonna grab somethin and eat outside, not as much noise"

Don't be there

Seifer please, please, please, please, please.

~*~

Hotdogs? Again? Eh.

"Two please" I got my drink and hotdogs, and we started out and

the whole time

every pair of eyes was looking at me.

"Hahaha! Yeah I know!" Seifer was there. I could hear him close

but we were

leaving so it didn't bother me.

I saw him getting soup, but then I looked away

What I didn't see him was him heading in my direction, not looking

where he was

going until he walked into me and knocked the tray outta my hands

again

"Watch where you're going!" I yelled, and all the talking stopped.

The room was silent.

I knew he didn't mean to when I looked up angrily into his eyes, but

I also knew

he wasn't sorry for it either.

Irvine looked ready to step in if I needed it, he and I both knew that

 I was in

no condition to fight.

"Don't think so," he laughed and looked over at a table where the

guy who held me

and some girl with grey hair were sitting.

I didn't even think, it was instinct what I did next. With my good foot I

slammed it down on his and tipped his tray of soup onto his trench

coat which

absorbed the green pea soup quite quickly.

"Ahhh!" it was hot so I can understand him yelling. I was happy

and would have stared at him longer but Irvine dragged me out. He

didn't say anything 'till we were outside.

"Ok," he said taking a deep breath, this should be interesting. "I

don't wanna sound like a wuss cause I'm not, I'm a sharp shooter,

but if you don't want your life to be a living hell wile your hear then I

suggest not to mess with Seifer."

I stared blankly at him, hot as he was, he was wrong. As my father

always said: Never make the first move but if you ever are in a

fight then hit the person twice as hard as they hit you, and never

stop fighting till you can't stand up. You might not always win but

they'll know that you will fight back.

Then he went off and became a Galbadian soldier and I've never

heard from him since.

"If he wants to fight me then bring it on. I'm no wuss either." I was

mad at him he was telling me not to be me! I am a rebel, I never

surrender, I don't go around looking for fights but I'll never pass up

a chance to be in one either.

"I just don't want to see you in the infirmary again in the state you

were in

last night." I can't believe this! Why does he care!? Nobody cares

about me so why al of a sudden does he!? He's doing what my

father did. Says he'll always be here, that I can count on him, trust

him. Then when I need him the most he's gone. I'm not ever going

though that again, I'd rather have no friends then to go through

that.

"Why are you doing this?! Why are you pretending to care?!" I

could feel tears on my face. I quickly wiped them away taking half

my face with them I pressed so hard. Why do I get emotional when

I'm around him? I started hitting my forehead really hard and

bighting my lip. I didn't want to talk or think about that thing that

just left me with a witch for a step mom.

"Don't do that" he took one of his gloved hands and held my wrist.

just like that guy did when Seifer pounded on me, he was gonna l

et some one hurt me again!

"Tell me, what happened?" his voice was soft and comforting, but

he didn't know me and would hurt me like everyone else did.

I could taste blood again.

"It helps if you tell people before you do anything that you'll regret"

he lifted my chin with his finger so he could look into my eyes. My

hand was still in his. Trapped so I couldn't defend myself.

"Nothing, it's nothing, I have to go........." I started to walk away, my

limp almost gone but he held onto my wrist. Here it comes he's

gonna hit me, he's gonna do it, he's gonna do it. I closed my eyes

tightly

"If you ever need to let anything out......I'm always here." He let go. 

started at him for a sec or two then left to my dorm.

~*~

I stayed there the rest of the day and doodled. I thought of

suicide

and lightly dragged the switch blade across my wrists but decided

to see what day 3 would bring. At least I'd wake up in my bed,

sorta.

Today I was going to the training centre. I took out my new

Gunblade my nanny sent me on rush delivery when she heard I

was going to Balamb. But she made me promise not to open it till I

was ready to use it, and I keep my promises. So I got the long box

out from under my bed, took off the lid and removed the paper

covering it. It lay there, shining, never been used and really sharp!

I like sharp things hehehe.

I picked it up and looked it over very carefully. There was an

engraving of a Dragon breathing fire on one side of it and like a

mirror on the other side. Now I was complete.

I looked closer at it and read the words that outlined the fire:

Alzera, keep this close, you never know when you need a

reminder of your true family

Love

Nanny.

Also in the box was the belt that I'd wear everyday to keep my

gunblade close.

I changed into girl clothes. When I was happy I wore girl clothes,

when I wasn't I wore guy clothes. But yes, I was in a happy mood. I

put on a tight purple tank top with really thin straps, and light green

clam-diggers. My red hair was tied up in a ponytail and my feet

were blessed with white boot-shoe things. The black belt that held

my gunblade looked some what out of place but who the hell

cared?

I have a gunblade!

I half jogged half ran to the training centre. I was gonna kill

something! I stopped running/jogging when I got to then entrance. I

slowly walked in looking everywhere for anything that moved. I

was ordered not to fight t-rexsaurs until I was a SeeD so I only

fought those little walking plant things.

Yeah, so I was walking along talking to myself, I do that a lot.

"But um......what happens if I do come across a t-rexsaurs? It's

very fast and I can't outrun it. Um.........?" Brilliant Alex this is

gonna look good on your file 'almost dies fighting a t-rexsaurs.'

"Shit" I am an idiot, then I heard something and drew my gunblade.

Your gonna die, your gonna die, your gonna die, what an optimist

you are. I heard it coming from behind. I didn't know what it was

but I could block it. Within seconds I swung my gunblade over my

head and blocked the attack on my back. I heard a clang so I

assumed it was another gunblade person. I kept the gunblade

linked with whatever had attacked as I turned around.

"Can't you just leave me alone! What the hell's your problem!"

Seifer stared at me with fire in his piercing eyes.

"You soooo stained my coat with pea soup" he smirked an evil

smirk I knew only too well. He took a swing at my face but I

blocked it.

"And your point is? Oh and you should try not to let your opponent

know your next move, it just makes it easer to block," I smiled at

him sarcastically making fun of him, and he knew it.

"You think your good eh?" he asked as if talking to a beginner

 which I so was not.

"Yup" I twirled the gunblade around my fingers like people do with

hand guns and smirked at him. It was heavy I'll admit, but with a lot

of practice your fingers get stronger and hold the weight. Making

fun of him was fun, and I didn't have to say a thing!

"I'm board of this little game, now if you'd excuse me I'm going to

finish training."

As I started to leave, a monster that stood like 15 feet turned the

Corner

"Shit!" as I turned to run in Seifer's direction another one came

from that direction.

"Shit, shit! Were surrounded!" I was panicking, not only am I not

suppose to fight t-rexsaurs, but two of them?! And I didn't have any

magic on me accept a few cures.

"Naw really"

"Shut up Seifer, do you have any Magic? I only have like 3 cures

 with me."

"I have nothing, I followed you in here to beat you up again." He

was as freaked as I was, I don't even think that he's a SeeD yet

but he's probably been hear a while.

"Um, um, um ha! We both charge the smaller one, you duck under

it's legs and I'll stab it a few times, then I'll go under and we get the

hell outta hear ok?"

Hehehe my brilliant plan will probably get me killed but it was a

plan wasn't it?

Seifer nodded

"ok one.....two....three!" I ran straight for it ready to kill, Seifer was

ahead of me. All of a sudden he stopped and shoved me while I

was running.

I hit hard but I knew his plan, the rexes go for the fallen prey and

 the other

one gets away safe.

Shit.

"Fuck you Seifer!" he laughed at me as he ran and said:

"See ya around......maybe"

Ok, so here I was trying to fight two t-rexsaurs by myself with a

gunblade and no magic. The bigger one lunged at me, jaws wide

open, but I dodged just in time to be right in the path of the little

one doing the same thing, but I rolled out of the way of that one.

That went on for like ten more minutes and I dodged all of them

barely.

"Fuck you! Leave me alone!" I yelled, dodging another attack. I got

hit that time, it's razor sharp tooth caught my shoulder in a role.

Man, I was sooooo tired!

My legs felt like Jell-O as well as my arms, so much in my arms

that I had to drop my gunblade. Around there is when I caught my

foot on a root while doing a role and landed face first into the dirt

path. Ok this is it, bye, bye Alex.

"Blind!" someone yelled "Blind!" I'm guessing that he blinded the

rexes.

"You ok?" he asked as I was getting up

"Yeah but my gunblade, I hafta get it!" I ran to the fallen gunblade

and put it away.

"Ok lets go!" I followed the blond around the dirt paths until we got

back to the entrance.

"Fuck! I hate Seifer!" I punched the concrete wall with my bare

hands. It hurt like hell but it took my mind off my slashed shoulder.

"Ouch, what did he do?" he was panting a lot

"I'm going in to train right? He followed me in to beat me up and

then those two show up, I come up with a plan to escape, and it

could have worked but Seifer tripped me. That distracted them and

he got away scott free.....Fuck!" I did it again. With my other hand.

"He's been here like all his life and still hasn't become a SeeD,

hehe" he seemed to be trying to cheer me up.......and it worked, I

smiled at him.

"By the way, I'm Zell"
