Disclaimer: I don't own Final Fantasy 8...
Note: I saw some of Gundam Wing and I must say I was fairly displeased. It's mindless plot twists only seem to lead to dead ends, then they just start with a new plot point and it makes you wonder 'What the Hell?'... But I am sorry to any true Gundam Wing fans... I just didn't like it *shrugs* BUT I DID LIKE THE MOVIE!! .....Sorry......
P.S. The thingy below is going to be repeated through out the story... along with others little quote things.. ^_______^ .... Eventually they will come together...
He who overcomes will be dressed in white, and I will not take his name
from the book of life; and I will give witness to his name before my father, and
before his angels.

The 5 of them sat around a small coffee table. No sound was made. No rustle of clothes or anything. Squall had his eyes locked on the girl the man called Rinoa. However her eyes were locked on her tea cup which she held in her hands. Selphie sighed loudly trying to break the silence between them. The attempt failed as no one even took notice to her or her sigh. Selphie rolled her eyes but while doing so caught a glimpse of Rinoa's necklace of the cross.
"Oh, that's pretty." Selphie said as she gazed at it. Rinoa immediately took notice and gingerly took the cross into the palm of her hand and brought it up so Selphie could see it. This got Zell's attention.
"Wow." He exclaimed quietly as his eyes sparkled. Rinoa giggled lightly. Selphie looked to Squall who showed no expression. She nudged him lightly in the stomach.
"Pretty, eh?" She asked him as her eyes darted from the necklace and back to Squall. Squall nodded lightly without care. Seifer rolled his eyes. He had seen that same necklace a million times, there was nothing special. In an attempt to get the hell away he looked to his pocket watch for escape. His eyes lit up with hope.
"Rinoa, it is time for us to leave we must catch our ship." Seifer told her as he grabbed her arm and pulled her up along with himself. Rinoa shurgged lightly.
"Buh bye everyone! Hope to see you again!" Rinoa said with a wave as she was being dragged out the small village house.
"Wait, where are you going!?" Selphie called after her, but she didn't get an answer as Seifer pulled her along to the dock. which was quite close to the small hut they were once in. Selphie took chase after them. Zell and Squall followed closely behind.
"Stop!" Rinoa yelled to Seifer. Seifer sighed with annoyance but let go of Rinoa. Selphie finally caught up to the now stopped Rinoa, along with Squall and Zell.
"Where are you going exactly?" Selphie asked through gasps of air.
"We are going to Garden." Rinoa told her as she walked closer to Selphie.
"Garden?" Zell questioned.
"Yes, we are not to sure exactly what it is, but we were summoned there." Rinoa said with a shrug.
"Supposedly it is a high military base, but that is just a rumor." Seifer added.
"It must be a rumor, why would they want me?" Rinoa asked with a laugh.
"Well, I hope to see you again, Rinoa." Selphie told her as she stuck out her hand for a shake. Rinoa gratefully took the hand and shook it lightly.
"I hope to see you again also. And I would also love to see the rest of you." Rinoa said with a smile as she looked at the trio in front of her.
"Rinoa, we must go now." Seifer told her as he began to walk away from the scene. Rinoa waved good bye to them all and boarded along with Seifer.
"I think I'll be seeing alot more of you." Squall said with a whisper. He smirked and dove behind a cargo box to the left of him. He hopped up on top a jumped onto the side of the boat. He landed with ease on his knee, but didn't stop to congratulate himself as he ducked behind another box...

"Hey where did Squall go?" Asked Selphie as she looked about in confusion. She saw Zell looking up to the ship and she followed his eyes. She found Squall jumping up onto the ship. "Squall is such an idiot." Selphie complained as she slapped a hand to her forehead.
"Lets follow him!" Zell said with a smile.
"You're kidding, right?" Selphie asked as her mouth opened to an unspeakable size. Zell gave no verbal reply. His answer was jumping up onto the box and onto the ship, just as Squall had done. Selphie shrugged. "I guess will just end up back here anyways." She quickly followed Zell up to the ship.....
