It had been only 6 months since the defeat of Ultimecia. Squall had
proposed to her at the party. She more than willingly accepted. Zell had
finished Rinoa's ring that looked like Squall's. Her's was smaller and
Griever looked happier on it. That was Squall's engagement ring to her.
That night they became each other's, no one could separate them. It was
impossible. He held her close whenever they were together and she was
constantly on his mind. Rinoa felt blessed. Never had she felt so alive and
wanted. The thought of him being gone one minute disturbed her sleep
sometimes but when she opened her eyes he was already pulling her closer to
him. He knew whatever emotion she might be feeling. She knew his as well.
Their bond was eternal. No one doubted it. Cid took his title back
unwillingly but he took it. He tried to persuade the two in some space
apart from each other. But it didn't work… not even a little bit. Squall
refused by saying that under contract he was bound to her till Timber's
independence. So Cid sent Him, Selphie and Zell back to Timber and their
freedom was won within a day. When they returned Cid tried again. Squall
talked with Rinoa and she smiled as she agreed. Squall informed Cid that he
was being hired out to the Sorceress Rinoa, that he had been hired out to
her since Ultimecia had taken over his princess. Cid realized it was just a
battle he was losing. So he promoted Squall's See D level, but informed him
that the level raised but his pay didn't since his princess needed to pay
Balamb for taking up their best See D. The best See D in all of the world.
Rinoa hugged the headmaster and thanked him. Squall simply smiled. That was
enough for Cid. Cid loved seeing them happy, it was just he knew that if
anything were to happen to one of them, the other would be so heart broken.
It would be the end for the one left behind.
A month later Cid sent Squall to the deep sea research center. He only sent Squall since they had cleared the place up before when they defeated the weapons. They had a report of some monsters gathering there. There hadn't appeared to be very many so it looked as if there was no need for a team. Squall went and fine he cleared the remaining monsters of no problem then he explored the place once more. He was sure it was safe now and took a break leaning against a wall. The wall collapsed and behind it was something he feared and wanted to see since he was very young. The ultimate guardian force, Griever. The magnificent beast looked in pain. It simply looked yearningly up at Squall. Griever seemed to speak to him. He spoke, 'We've met before I feel it. You've defeated me before. End me now. I beg of you.' Squall stared at him in shock. He shook his head and cast almost his entire curing stock on the guardian force. Slowly Griever regained his structure. Griever peered into Squall, he saw no fear now he saw the respect for the force and then he saw something that had been with him the entire time that's what helped him recognized him. It was his love for his fiancé. Griever knew that some day in the future he would see this man again and he would meet his fiancé as well. Griever looked forward to it happily. Squall developed a friendship with the beast. He told no one, not even Rinoa. He hid the secret from her. Not for any real reason he just felt that Griever didn't need to have any visitors. But Griever had requested that he be junctioned to squall so he could feel his loves presecnce. But Squall denied him. Squall felt that Rinoa would notice and be upset that he didn't tell her. Griever understood and some time in the following weeks when Squall would come to visit him he would junction with him and they were a great team.
It was 3 months into Rinoa's and Squall's engagement that the world began to go crazy. Gardens were being overloaded with problems it seemed that the world was being attacked by someone but no one knew who so they blamed it on other nations. Chaos ran the world. Squall was being worn out quickly. He took Rinoa to the orphanage and told her he'd be back. He promised her. She forced herself not to worry too much and smiled fakely and promised to be waiting for him to return. She kissed him a long good-bye kiss praying it wouldn't be their last.
