What We Remember... Chapter 2
---------------------------------------------------------
-Epilogue-
Rinoa walks across the barren plain, searching, yet not knowing what she's searching for, she continues on the instict, she'll know when she sees. At a point, she find Squall, collapsed, she called his name out, no reply, just a mindless figure, no life, nothing, she's lost him. She will search for him again, she doesn't know where or how, then she opened her eyes, there she was, in the plain of flowers where they promised to meet up, there, she finally knew, she found him...
---------------------------------------------------------
In the lone house, General Caraway sits all alone, in his office sipping on a cup of dark red wine, waiting. His thoughts go straight to Rinoa, his only memoire of his late wife, Julia. He sits, listening to the slow, rhythmic ticks of the old clock, then he gets up as he hears footsteps approaching, he walks to the middle of the room and placed his cup down, there a Galbadian Soldier appeared.
"Sir," the Soldier started, "There's a man in ragged clothing claiming to be, or trying to be the president of Esthar."
"Send him in..."
"B-but, sir..."
"Just do it..."
"... Yes, sir."
The soldier left, a short while later, he came back escorting a man in long hair with a blue jacket, white shirt, and jeans. His eyes still has it's faint sparkle even after all the years.
"Sir, President Loire is here."
"Dismissed."
"Yes, sir," the soldier leaves the room and closes the door behind him.
"So, this is the famous soldier, my late wife, before we married you were the one she was calling out to."
Laguna smiled gently, "Yes, I once loved her."
"I see, have a seat," both gentleman sit down at the table, "I'll get right to the point, I need a small excavation team to examine the meteor crash area at Trabia."
"I see, so what is the purpose of this?"
General Caraway paused for a while, "I've been studying something that I found interesting, do you know that the magic in this world is deteriorating?"
"I have."
"Do you know whats causing it?"
"Not really, I haven't looked into this much."
"I'll tell you," He got up and walked to the window and stared out into the night sky, "It's actually an entity, but from what we can determine at this point, it no longer lives among us."
"So it's dead."
"Yes, be we need to conduct research on it, the area of effectiveness of magic seems to be accumilating at that point while decreasing in areas furthest from it."
"I see... Lets go then."
"Right..."

Center of Impact Dome (Meteor Crash Site)
---------------------------------------------------------
The area shimmers with golden light of feathers, there in the center was something covered by golden wings. The wings slowly open and Rinoa appeared, her bare body can feel the solf wind blowing past her, the wings covered her again. They opened up, dressed, she looked at her pink sweater and wrist cloths, pleased, then she tugged on her white outfit on the inside to loosen it slightly for more mobility.
She walked into the snow covered plain, she continues to walk for unknown reasons, just going. Creatures were annihilated as they approached her with a harmful lust for blood. Trees seem to rejuvinate and flowers grow out of the snow as she pass, a new, more profound life has been found.

Centra Desert
--------------------------------------------------------
The group has been split into two groups, Squall, Quistis, and Irvine on Group A, and Selfie, Zell, Seifer, and Rinoa on Group B.
"Everyone," Squall announced, "Split up!"
"Wh-Whats that?" Zell yelled as he looked in the sand.
A giant Sand Wyrm Protruded into the sky, squealing in rage and sprang down. Group A was closer to the Wyrm and Group B was already backing up with their weakened magic. The floor began to rumble, the fight grew intense, they weren't going to win this, it was too late to escape.
The Wyrm snapped it's massive tail at Zell, causing him to be knocked out, Selfie tried to approach him, but before she could, the Wyrm binded her. Irvine selflessly fired Rapid shots at it, not stopping, until it hit the Wyrm's mouth. The beast released the knocked out Selfie, and squealed violently as he flung his massive head at everyone, all of them were wiped out.
Seifer struggled to get up as he saw the Wyrm approach Squall, he was going to die, he just knew it... He struggled to his feet with fail, if nothing was done in the next 3 seconds, Squall will no longer exist. He collapsed down with low hopes as the Wyrm's head begins to dive, its going to be over... A glowing black line appears in the middle of the desert air and light turned into darkness for a brief second, the Wyrm paused. Seifer looked carefully, it didn't pause, it was dead, the other half of his body has deteriorated into dust just as it's head begins to blow away into the wind. There stood a figure dressed in white, standing right next to the downed Squall, the image was uncanny.
"Hey, you!" Seifer got to his feet and walked towards the figure.
The figure turned his face to the side to reveal a shock, it was a face he couldn't mistake for anyone elses. The image flashed and dissappeared into the air as the floor started to rumble. The 3 fainted bodies started to move, dragged into a direction, there was a whirlsand where Squall, Irvine, and Quistis was, Squall was already dragged in along with Irvine, as Quistis' body was about to consumed, Seifer rushed to her and grasped her hand.
"No! I won't lose you, don't leave me!" Her hand started to slip from his, "No, I won't lose you, don't leave me, I love you!" He couldn't hold on, she was dragged in and the whirlsand faded, leaving Seifer with only her cherished instructor ring.
Seifer's mind was blank, he stood up with a shocked face, tears started to well up in his eyes, his hands started to shake, his teath gritted together. Then, he broke the silence, screaming into the barren desert at top of his lungs...
"QQQQQUUUUUIIIIISSSSSTTTTTIIIIISSSSS!!!!!"
