Chapter 6

" You must be aware of what your doing to me

We're sunk like a stone, on a rock, in the sea

We don't have to stay friends, not for very long

We don't have to stay friends, just because your gone

Yeah, whatever makes you happy

Yeah, whatever makes it beautiful

Yeah, whatever leaves you satisfied

Yeah, you get what you want, but you won't let it die."

Squall walked down the hall toward his room muttering loudly, he grabbed his door, but something stopped him, voices. Squall strained himself to the door listening carefully. It sounded like Irivine, and Seifer, and they were fighting, a low whisper. Squall normally would have just walked away, it wasn't his business, but when he heard Irivine say his name, it became his business.

"You told him, that you slept with Rinoa?!" Irivine was yelling, trying to keep his voice calm, but was failing. Squall heard Seifer chuckle, and muttered something about having to.

"What? You didn't have to do anything you moron! What drove you to tell him that? That just sets them back, and sets us back you dumb ass!" Irivine was now yelling openly, but after a gesture or something that Seifer must have made, he relaxed.

"You know what you were doing didn't you?" Irivine growled. For the first time, Squall heard Seifer's voice.

"Yeah I knew, I knew exactly what I was doing. He stills cares for her, now we know for sure.." Seifer said in his tone, that sounded like he knew everything. Squall heard a thud, that sounded like someone pounding someone against a wall, Squall only guessed that Irivine had lost his patience.

" We already knew that Seifer!" Irivine roared. Squall heard a few movements and another thud.

"Don't tell me what to do cowboy.." Seifer was growling in his threatening voice.

"Or what?" Irivine asked, Squall would barely make out the words now, and was leaning hard on Seifer's door.

" I'll get rid of you, in simple terms.." Seifer seemed to move back, and a loud noise was heard, then Irivine's scream filled the room and the hall. Squall jumped back and rammed himself into the room, Squall raised his head, seeing Irivine holding a cut across his arm, and Seifer pointing his gun blade at Irivine's throat.

'Perfect timing.." Seifer glanced up at him, then back at Irivine.

"We're done here, good bye Irivine." Seifer said simple removing the gun blade from Irivine's throat. Irivine gulped and stood up, his shaky hand reaching for his hat. He left Seifer's room, giving Squall and quick glance then disappeared down the hallway. Squall looked at Seifer, sitting now looking smug.

"What just happened?" Squall asked quickly nodding toward the doorway, Seifer just shrugged still smiling.

"Nothing that concerns you, my friend." Seifer smirked at his last comment. Squall narrowed his eyes.

"When I hear my name, and Irivine is involve it becomes part of my business.." Squall snorted slightly.

"And I'm not your friend." Squall added quickly looking around the room.

"Well, did you know that the Garden is lacking in funds?" Seifer stood and stepped toward Squall. Squall jerked and looked at him. Squall had known this, and this simple fact had been hushed up extremely, but how did Seifer find out? Quistis he thought quickly.

"Where did you get that info?" Squall snapped grabbing Seifer's arm and squeezing it tightly. Seifer looked at Squall's hand on his arm, then back at Squall.

" Why ask questions you already know the answers too?" Seifer smirked then jerked his arm away from Squall's grasp. Squall sighed and moved toward the door.

"You know someone new is taking over correct?" Seifer asked looking down at his books. Squall turned around quickly. Now this was new news, but he tried to hide his surprise.

"What?" Squall asked slowly looking at Seifer carefully. Seifer jerked his head up looking at Squall.

" Yes, someone new, her name is Alma, seems she's a good friend of Cid's.. or use to be." Seifer let the words hang in the air, as he stepped away. He paused on the side of Squall, and he flung the door open.

"I heard she's a socresses too, seems she got her powers from that time machine thing, well what do you know." Seifer nodded toward the exit, Squall took the hint and stepped out of his room.

"Don't plan of visiting a lot Squall.." Seifer said smugly, and shut the door hard. Squall stared blankly at the door. Another Socresses, well hopefully she was like Rinoa and Edea, she has to be, to take over the garden and all. Squall put his hands in his pockets and walked down the hallway.

Everyone was all peppy about seeing the new headmaster, but most of the staff was down in the dumps about having to turn almost completely into a normal school. Squall, Rinoa, and Quistis were all teaching one class, but after that class, they would go to the class. Squall hated teaching, millions of eyes on him, as he taught when to retreat, when not to. How to use a gun blade, how to remember things that the GF's might make you forget otherwise. Rinoa was teaching Socresses history, and Timber's history. Quistis was teaching basic draw spells, math, and history. There was other teaching that taught Spanish, government stuff, and science, but they weren't so talkative or happy to be there. The first moment that Squall had met the new teacher, he was called down to the office, Squall thought it was normal, must be Cid saying good bye. But when Squall got there, he saw the others, Rinoa, Zell, Irivine, Quistis, Selphie, and now himself in the room. Squall took a one last look around the room, then tried to walk out, but the doorknob clicked. Squall pulled on the door, and saw it was locked. Quistis stood up looking around.

"What's going on?" Quistis asked slowly looking from each face to the other. Squall shrugged and looked around the room, the others were puzzled like himself.

"Now, now that's no way to address someone you haven't met before, shame on you , Squall." Seifer smirked slightly and stepped into the sight. Zell's defense went up, his fists in the air, he swayed back and forth.

"Cut the crap Seifer." He growled watching Seifer's every move. Seifer ignored him, and walked toward a door, and opened it slowly. White mist seemed to escape from it, as a tall lady stepped through. She had blonde hair, not as blonde as Quistis, but close. She was awfully attractive, Squall noticed, not as fast as Irivine had. His mouth was open slightly, until he closed it, seeing the look Selphie was giving him. Squall had this feeling, that whoever this attractive lady was she was bad news, Rinoa seemed to be getting this message too, cause she backed up slightly narrowing her eyes at the socresses. The lady stopped herself, and opened her arms smiling.

"Welcome." She spoke quietly, her voice was kind, yet it held a bit of harshness to it. The white mist was traveling toward them now, Squall took a couple of steps back until he was even with Rinoa. Irivine stepped toward the lady and took his hat off smiling sheepishly. She smiled and at him and waved her arm across his face, Irivine seemed to stand up straighter and his eyes seemed unfocused. Squall glanced toward Seifer, he to had the same expression on his face. Squall shot a look back at the lady.

"Why are we here?" He asked quickly, his voice betraying him slightly. The lady turned her attention from the daze Irivine and looked at Squall.

"I'm Alma.." She smiled tilting her head the side. Squall nodded.

"That's nice." He gave her the SeeD salute and turned on his heel, grabbing Rinoa

s , and Zell's arms and pulling them.

"Squall!" She called after him, Squall stopped and looked back.

"Yes?" He asked, sounding annoyed.

" I just wanted to meet the people that saved the world, you don't have to see me as threatning." She smiled taking a step toward him. He backed away and pulled Zell and Rinoa with him. Squall didn't want to be touched by her, it made him nervous. He nodded quickly and pushed the doors opened and yanked the two out.

"Let go Man!" Zell said jerking away, rubbing the spot where Squall's fingers had been. Rinoa turned and looked at Squall, then looked toward the door they had just came out of.

"I don't like her.." Rinoa stated looking at Squall again.

"You just met her!" Zell said rubbing his flesh.

" I know, but she makes...me feel weird." Squall muttered and Rinoa nodded.

"What about the others?" Zell asked walking toward the door, the door opened before Squall had the chance to answer, and there stood Irivine, Selphie, Quistis, Seifer, and Alma smiling. Alma was the only one without the daze look on her face. She patted Irivine and Seifer, then looked at Squall.

"My children." She muttered softly. Squall backed up grabbing them again and kicked the button for the elevator door, and pushed them in.

"Where are you going?" Selphie asked moving toward them now, they're hands out as if reaching for them. Squall jumped into the elevator and pressed the close button frantically. Finally the doors closed right as Selphie had reached it.

" What the hell is going on?!" Zell yelled walking around the elevator. Squall looked up at the lights trying to think.

"I don't know, but I know I don't like it." He sighed looking at Rinoa.
