Chapter- Four

Title- Past Therefore I Am.

"You think that Sibil can turn into Aisha when she's surprised?" Quistis inquired as she picked up a brownie from a glass plate.

Zell shrugged. "Aisha appeared when Sibil tripped and fell into me...I don't know how Aisha became Sibil again though," he replied and looked down at the two great danes sleeping beside his chair.

Selphie smiled broadly and Quistis only rolled her eyes. "No, Selphie. We are not going to surprise Sibil all the time just for you to have your food machine friend back," Quistis implied.

Selphie's smile faded and she stood up. "Well, you two get your fun by talking about this angel crap and I don't get to do anything, do I!?" she growled and stomped off into the kitchen with the great danes trailing behind her.

Zell frowned and stood up with a groan. Quistis stood up quickly and spilled her tea. "Oh....," she murmered.

Zell looked at Quistis and shook his head to erase the memories of the past. The bedroom, the rain and the love. He looked into her eyes and felt himself remember everything that had happened to the two of them.

~ The Past ~

"Quistis! Quistis! I got in! I actually got in!" Zell cried as he leapt into the air and held a peice of paper between his index and middle finger.

Quistis rushed over and jumped into his arms, the two laughed at the success then ingaged in a kiss. "I'm so happy for you!" Quistis exclaimed with a smile.

Zell nodded and winked at her wickedly which made her collapse into giggles.

"So, now you're a knight, eh?" Quistis inquired

Zell smiled broadly and nodded. "Yes! A full fledged knight! I will be serving his majesty and his highness for the rest of my years! Well...until I grow old and lonely or something."

Quistis smiled back and gave him a long kiss, she then gazed at him with her beautiful eyes and turned away. "I say dear knight, will you be stopping by...oh say...eleventy?" she inquired with a purr.

"You know it," Zell purred back.

Quistis giggled and ran home. Zell frowned and turned to the allys', jutting his chin out slightly and humming to himself a melody of some sort. "Hey, arn't you that new knight?" a voice inquired.

"Why yes I am...who might you b-" Zell turned and pain struck his chest.

A girl with long dark hair and bright eyes stood facing him, she wore a blue outfit. "Good evening Zell, been a long time hasn't it?" she inquired with a smile.

"Renoa...what are you doing here?" Zell asked with a monotonous voice.

"I came to see my dearest, Zell."

"And who is that?"

Renoa giggled and that made Zell cringe. Memories of them sharing everything with each other, the two lost their virginity to each other so long ago. But then Renoa cheated on him with his best friend, and it broke his heart that he gave everything to her. He even lied to his parents to see her. "You silly, I came to see you," she said bringing him back into reality.

"I don't need you, Renoa. All you are is trash and that's all you're going to be," Zell growled and started to turn away.

"Please...Zell..I'm all alone!"

"I feel the least bit sorry for you...you shouldn't have done what you have done to me in the past.."

"I'm sorry! We were young...only sixteen I was...you were seventeen. We were madly in love, well, I was in love. But it was your best friend who came on to me!"

"You really think I'll take you back, don't you?" Zell inquired under his breath.

"Zell...please...I forgive you."

Zell turned to glare at Renoa. "Forgive me for what!? I didn't do shit to you and you stabbed me in the back with my best friend who is now in phsyciatric facilities! Going from place to place because I tried to kill him...but I don't see why I tried, it wasn't worth it at all!"

Renoa looked over Zell's shoulder and spotted Quistis. "Zell...I love you too, but I can't see you!" she yelled loud enough for Quistis to hear.

"I hate you!"

Renoa quickly pressed her body against Zell's and kissed him long and hard. Quistis put a hand up to her mouth and ran out of the ally. Zell pushed Renoa away and his face became red. "Why in the hell did you do that!!?? You had no right to do that!"

"Well...now all the women in this town will think you are some cheater...you are still the same too, no love in your kisses. I hope Quistis spits on your grave," Renoa sneered and turned away.

Zell wiped a hand across his mouth and headed for home.

"Zell, is that you?" a woman inquired as Zell entered his home.

"Yeah, it's me," he replied.

His mother rushed out of the kitchen and her face was red. "Your.....father and brother didn't make it at the hospital...," she said.

Zell felt his whole body shatter inside, fury rose to his brain and he felt like he could erupt. "What!? When did this shit happen?!" he cried.

"Zell..lower your tone. It happened this morning...I'm sorry."

"Sorry!? Is that all you can say!?"

"Zell!"

Zell turned and rushed outside, it had began to rain hard on the pavement but he walked slowly in the streets. His mind was racked and he couldn't think, all he knew was he had to enrole in the knights. He had recieved his notice that he could become a knight and now he wanted to become a knight badly. Zell rushed to the kingdom and enrolled.

~ Present ~

Zell opened his eyes and stared up at the ceiling. Sweat slid down the sides of his face as he sat up and shook his head. "The past...it always finds me..it haunts me. This anger which will start anew...," he murmered and got out of bed.

His long pants covered half of his feet and sweat had beaded on his muscular chest. Zell gazed out the window, it had already begun to change to winter. Snow was already falling and he felt the coldness creep into his room like a poisen. " My life is now important....for what, I don't know. But soon, yes, soon I will find out."

Zell put his hands on the two boards which held the glass in place and rested his forehead against the cold glass window. The door opened and he heard footsteps behind him. "Zell," it was Quistis's voice.

"What is it?" he inquired.

"I....I just...wanted to see if you were alright..that's all."

Zell turned around and frowned. Quistis was wearing a robe and her hair was damp. "Zell...I...uh...," Quistis fumbled for words.

Zell strode over and pulled her into a hug. "It's alright....the memories came to me also," he whispered and smoothed her hair.

"I hate the past...I hate it...," Quistis sobbed into his shoulder.

"I do too..but we can't change what was...all we can do is look forward into the future. All I know is that I have to be there for Sibil, and all I know is I don't want to lose her."

Quistis pulled away from Zell. "Why can't we start over!? Why can't we become involved?!" she cried.

Zell shook his head as sadness crept into his body. "We can't just forget what had happened...all you can do now is move on."

Quistis shook her head furiously. "No no no! I don't want to lose you again!"

"Quistis...," Zell sighed.

Quistis stepped forward, grabbed the sides of Zells' head and kissed him passionatly. She broke away when he didn't respond. "Zell...I....I'm sorry!" she exclaimed and rushed out of the room.

Zell sat on his bed and looked out the window. Tears sliding down his cheeks unfazed him and he realized he was crying a few minutes later.

~ Sibil's Past ~

Sibil tossed and turned in her bed, trying to restrain from falling into her memories. But they hit her like an iron fist in the gut.

"Sibil...Sibil, I love you," a voice said.

Sibil opened her eyes and a face with long hair was gazing into her eyes. "Laguna...what happened?" she inquired.

"You passed out...I got worried," he replied.

"Oh...I'm sorry."

Laguna helped Sibil up and gave her a kiss. "Sibil...do you love me?" he inquired as the broke away.

"Yes, Laguna..I love you," she whispered.

Flash into the future a bit.

"Kill them!" Laguna ordered to Sibil whom was now Aisha.

Aisha nodded and flew forward, slicing through the warriors with two knives attached to her wrists. A young man with blonde hair and a tattoo on his right cheek stepped forth. "I won't let you kill anymore people!" he yelled to the angel.

Aisha stopped in midflight and turned to look at the young man. "You can defeat me? How?" she inquired.

Laguna began to tap his foot, becoming very impatient. "Aisha! Kill him!"

Aisha gazed into the young man's eyes for a moment and felt herself drop into his eyes. "What is your name?"

"Zellios Dinchet, that is all you will know," the young man replied with a monotonous voice.

"Then...I shall kill you quickly before you feel pain!"

Aisha flew forward and Zellios caught her right wing with his blade, blood splattered onto his face as Aisha cried out in pain. But she had hit her target and Zellios fell to his knees, a large gash appeared on his right rib and he fell to the ground beside an older man. His father.

"Aisha...you've done well," Laguna said with a smile.

Aisha strode over to him," do I get a reward?"

"After I get mine," he replied with a wink.

Aisha grinned and the two left the bloody battlefield.

~ Present ~

Sibil shot up in her bed and transformed into Aisha. "...Laguna...my lord...no, he betrayed me...Zell...my darling," she murmered and stood up.

She felt along her collarbone for a scar, a scar of what Laguna did to her. He had taken a knife to her throat but missed and cut her collarbone. "Laguna....you will pay dearly for this."

Aisha transformed back into Sibil and she collapsed to her knees, shaking and her lips trembling. "Zell....I'm sorry," she said in a whisper as tears fell from her eyes.
