As Squall entered the fire cavern he notice that there were many paths.
"Shit…how am I going to find Ifrit in 20 minutes" he sighed.
As Squall started down a path that led to his right he suddenly heard Quistis's voice in the distance.
"Squall! Squall! SQUALL! Don't go any further! Wait right there!!" she yelled as she ran towards him.
Squall laughed and asked, "So how did the little situation that we had outside go? Did the beast get taken down by the beauty?"
"Ha Ha very funny. Just keep walking Squall…we have limited time." Quistis replied.
All of a sudden Squall stopped and turned around, "I could've taken that monster Instructor…why didn't you let me?"
Quistis hesitated, "I…you…there isn't much time…please continue walking Mr. Leonhart if you wish to become a SeeD."
Squall grinned and turned around. He began to walk towards a treasure chest that was hidden in the shadows when Quistis stopped him.
"It's a trick! Squall it's a trick! Don't open the chest Squall we don't have time!" she said while looking at the box with a puzzled look.
Squall kneeled and grinned, "What do you mean it's a trick…"
As Squall opened the treasure chest a sudden gust of wind emerged from it and a bomb appeared.
Squall drew out his gun blade and engaged in the battle.
"When I say don't open the chest I mean don't open the chest!" Quistis said while Squall struck the monster.
Squall looked back and replied, "This monster is nothing Instructor! We will have time to defeat this bastard and get Ifrit!"
Quistis sighed and decided to join Squall in the fight. As Squall drew the final blow to the monster Quistis insisted they hurry. As they began to follow the path further into the cavern Squall noticed it was getting quieter and darker.
"We have now reached the center of the cavern…soon Ifrit will arise and you must fight him. Remember to equip your Guardian Force as I will equip mine. We must hurry there is very little time." she said while a flame burst out of the geyser in the middle of the floor. As the flame went down a large lion-like GF rose out of the geyser.
"You are nothing but a mere human. You wish to defeat me? I, Ifrit accept your challenge. You shall experience the ultimate hell." it roared as it glared at Squall.
At first the battle seemed easy, but all of a sudden things took a different turn. Ifrit drew a big blast from the geyser and sent it straight towards Squall. Squall was knocked down immediately and his gun blade was jolted away from him. As Squall got to his feet he brushed off his cuts and retrieved his gun blade. It was now Quistis's turn to strike Ifrit. She called on the power of Shiva to help.
As Shiva rose from her icy palace, Ifrit groaned, "SHIVA!!! Maybe I did not give you much credit my boy…never the less I will be on your side."
"Very good Squall, you have passed your test here…now we shall return back to the garden to prepare for the SeeD test." Quistis said while putting her hand on his shoulder.
As they left the Fire Cavern Squall felt a sudden bit of pride. I did it!! Look sis, I did it!! I told you I'd be alright on my own and by myself! See I don't need any help…
"Shit…how am I going to find Ifrit in 20 minutes" he sighed.
