"Hello, Rae." A voice said slyly.
"Hello, whoever you are." She replied as she took a spoonful of cereal.
"How insulting, you know who I am."
"Actually, I don't want to and I don't know why you're here, either." She said taking another spoonful.
"You are getting annoying." The person said as he stepped around the corner.
"What is it, Seymour?"
"You know what. We're alone."
"So. And technically, we're not. I hate your guts, and I don't like the fact that you're hitting on me."
"My room is just down the hall." He said as he ran his finger across her chin.
"Yeah, I know."
"Lets go there now." He said as he put his arms around her shoulders. Rae almost choked. Then there were five thumps on the wooden table. Seymour looked up; he saw all five dragons growling, Windom ready to bite.
"What's gotten into them?"
"Gee, I wonder, could it be the fact that your arms are around me?" She said sarcastically.
"Oh, sorry." He removed his arms from her. He sat down across from Rae, the dragons still growling. Rae motioned "Thanks" to them, they nodded and continued growling.
"Please, call off your dragons."
"Why?"
"They're still growling."
"Oh yes, it's getting quite annoying. Please stop." She asked the dragons, they stopped but continued to eye Seymour. Rae used a teleport spell to teleport their dishes onto the table, next to the dragons.
"Seymour, what are you doing to Ra-oh, I see." Vincent exclaimed as he went down the stairs and saw what was going on. "What did he do now?" Vincent asked Rae.
"Guess." Seymour tried to put his hand across the table, and Windom snapped at him, causing him to pull back.
"I don't want to know, but I can get an idea."
"Yeah, you don't." She replied.
"Stupid dragon." Seymour said under his breath, but Windom still heard it, and growled.
Rae turned to Seymour.
"For your information, Windom is one of my smartest dragons. And it's not very smart to insult him in front of me."
Only a look of amazement appeared on Seymour's face.
"Are you really that stupid, or did you simply forget?" Vincent asked.
"I forgot." He replied.
"As much as you and your stupidity amaze me, I'll be leaving now." Rae said to no one, but it was kind of directed to Seymour.
"Where are you going?" Vincent asked.
"Room." Rae replied as she went upstairs.
"Okay." Vincent replied.
"Come, Windom!" Rae ordered.
Windom followed obediently. Rae went up to her room and lay down on the bed. She lifted her hand, palm facing ceiling, and a small paper appeared. Rae began reading it.
"One whose heart is divided into light and dark, cannot choose to be either good nor bad. Only the strong survive, thus is the way of nature."
She crumpled up the paper and threw it across the room.
"Stupid curse. But there's nothing that I can do about it." She sighed.
The crumpled up paper disappeared. There was a knock on the door, this kind of startled Rae.
"Who is it?"
"That is just what I was wondering." A very familiar voice replied.
"Come in, Squall."
The door opened. Squall came in and sat next to Rae.
"So why do you come to my room?"
"You seem so lonely, even though you found him." He replied.
"Yes."
"And what was that about "a heart divided into light and darkness, cannot choose to be either good nor bad."?"
"As long as you knew me, yet you don't know that."
"There are a lot of things I don't know about you."
"I think it's best you don't. Squall, the only thing I will tell you is that it's a curse." She said with an almost crying face.
Squall put a hand on her shoulder.
"What kind of curse would cause you to be sad? You have been through anything and everything."
"This damn curse was one I was born with. But why me?"
"You need to relax. Lets go to town, and have a few drinks."
"Squall, no drinks. We'll go to town and have something to eat. We'll bring Cloud, and Zidane."
"Why Zidane?"
"If we go to town, there is a very big chance that we'll get attacked. You, Cloud and Zidane can fight very well. I'm a Dragon Knight, Thieves will try to steal from me."
"True, true. Okay let's go. I'll go get them and you tell Vincent."
"That could take a while. I'll do this instead." Rae pulled out a piece of paper, and began writing on it. When she finished, she gave it to Windom. Windom flew out of the room. A few seconds later, he came back. "He's fast."
"Yup."
"Well I'll get the guys."
"Why? There's know need."
"What?"
"Open the door."
"Okay." Squall opened the door. Both Cloud and Zidane were there.
"Okay, lets go."
"Hello, whoever you are." She replied as she took a spoonful of cereal.
"How insulting, you know who I am."
"Actually, I don't want to and I don't know why you're here, either." She said taking another spoonful.
