Epilogue: Groovejet Party

Selphie dragged them all at the ceremony hall.

"Come on! Come on!" she yelled.

"S-Selphie! What the fuck?!" Zell bawled.

Selphie was so exited she heard no one. "Oh, come on! It's for us after all!!"

"What is for us?!" Quistis asked.

"The party!" Selphie replied with a big grin.

"What?!" Irvine gasped.

"P-party?!" Rinoa said.

"What the…" Ares gasped. Having became a mortal, he followed the rest.

"Selphie, if you are up to what I think you are, I swear I'll…" Squall said.

"You'll what Sorceress lover?!" She said sticking her tongue out.

They reached the hall, and Selphie slammed the door open. The whole Garden was
there,and not only them.

"Now…LET'S PARTAY!!" she screamed.

Now that was something the guys hadn't thought of in their wildest dreams. A big,
smash party all for them. Selphie had done it again.

"The Festival Committee a.k.a Killer with Daisy Face strikes again…" Seifer said
hitting his forehead.

"Heck! Great!" Zell said.

"Well, I guess that after all these…we deserve it!!!" Rinoa shouted. The others
couldn't disagree.

"Let's groove people!" Selphie shouted from the stage. A live DJ was on, playing
music to dance till you drop.

"And it's a karaoke too!!!" Selphie said. "Hey Mr.DJ! Roll it for me! You know
what!!" she said grabbing the mic.

"Hoh-boy…" Irvine said. He was afraid Selphie had picked something silly.

Selphie began shaking to the happy, but nice tune. Some knew it. It was from Ace of
Base.

*1
I was all arised when I first met you
That I wouldn't let myself believe,
That you could have slipped out of my wildest dreams
But you didn't know what secret part of me,
Until we kissed and made it all
A love song easily!

I always have!
Even though it didn't show,
I always will!
You know that I just wanna taunt you
Whenever you're close to me,
I always have!
Doesn't matter how it go,
I always will!
You know that I just wanna show you,
Just how much you mean to me,

Always have!
Always will!

Everything that you give into,
Everything you left I need,
It's all tucked deep inside of me!
You gotta know,
That more in fall of me,
To live and stay unharmed and live this fantasy.

I always have!
Even though it didn't show,
I always will!
You know that I just wanna taunt you
Whenever you're close to me,
I always have!
Doesn't matter how it go,
I always will!
You know that I just wanna show you,
Just how much you mean to me!!
Everyone was thrilled with Selphie's performance. They danced along the tune, and
they cheered Selphie. Squall was throwing the laugh of his life. He just couldn't
believe this was happening. Before he wanted to go and sleep, and now he was
dancing with Rinoa to Selphie's singing! What change was this? But, he surely liked
it.

"Hey! It's all part of the mysteryyy!!!" Selphie sang. She pulled Glafky up, and
handed her the mic. "Take it Glafky!"

*2
It's getting so lonely inside this bed
Don't know if I should lick my wounds
to say what bothers me instead,
There's a naked inside my head
It's tellin' me you're better off alone!
After midnight…
Mornin' will come!
In the day we'll see
If you have been some…

'Cause like a baby she acts so tough-tough-tough!
I said now, turn off the light, turn off the light!
And in the end she always acts so rough rough rough!
I said now, turn off the light, turn off the light!
You see we'll bonee-bonee-bonee
Down-down-down
Till you see all my dreams!
Like everything in this magical world
It's WMC…

Lift above, the other day…
You think I'm good and ready for a change…
Had in my life by the moon! (By the moon)
If it's half laid love
And if it's harvest, go slow
And if it's food, then go
But after midnight…
Mornin' will come…
In the day we'll see…
If you'll get some…
'Cause like a baby she acts so tough-tough-tough!
I said now, turn off the light, turn off the light!
And in the end she always acts so rough rough rough!
I said now, turn off the light, turn off the light!
You see we'll bonne-bonne-bonee
Down-down-down
Till you see all my dreams!
Like everything in this magical world
It's WMC…
Everyone was excited. Glafky had a voice for such songs. Loud and clear, her RNB
was great.

"Go Glafky baby!" Zell roared from the crowd.

"Hey Zell!" Nida shouted at him. He was holding Zell's guitar. "Catch dude!" he said
and threw it at him. Zell caught his guitar and ran on stage.

"My turn now!"

"Uh-oh…" Squall said. "I think he's ready to rock…" he said.

Zell started. Irvine jumped up. That was his favorite one! He had to join in! He ran up
to stage, to accompany Zell.

*3
Baby, life is like a ride on the freeway!
Dodgin' bullets while you're trying' to find your way!
Everyone's around but no one does a damn thing!
It brings me down, but I won't let go
If the same thing,
Well a you'd be corrected
If a don't speak it's cause I can't disconnect it
But I won't be!
Burn a butt on reflection!
From the fire in your eyes
As you're strarin' at the sun!
(Wo-oooohhhhooohh!)
As you're starin' at the sun!
(Wo-oooohhhhhooohh!)
As you're starin' at the sun!
(Wo-ooohhhhoooohhh!)
As you're starin' at the sun!
As you're starin' at the sun!

(Hey!)
When I ran I didn't feel like a runaway!
(Hey!)
When I escaped, I didn't feel like I got away!
(Hey!)
Smoke is rising and I'm only survivin'
Baby, I'm not down
But I'm still tryin'!
Do you hear me!?
I don't forget you relate me with something,
But that you can't confiscate it!
So forgive me!
But I won't be frustrated,
From the sunshine in your eyes
As you're strarin' at the sun!
(Wo-oooohhhhooohh!)
As you're starin' at the sun!
(Wo-oooohhhhhooohh!)

(Hey!)
When I ran I didn't feel like a runaway!
(Hey!)
When I escaped, I didn't feel like I got away!
(Hey!)
Smoke is rising and I'm only survivin'
Maybe I'm not bad!
But I'm still tryin'!
Do you hear me?!
I don't forget you relate me with something
But that you can't confiscate it!
So forgive me!
But I won't be frustrated,
From the sunshine in your eyes
As you're starin' at the sun!
(Wo-oooohhhhooohh!)
As you're starin' at the sun!
(Wo-oooohhhhhooohh!)
Zell and Irvine ended their duet in a daze of cheers and claps. Ant thought he had to
take part in the fun.

"Let's put somethin' lighter now, shall we!?" He said as Selphie gave him the mic.

*4
Hey! J-j-jaded!
You've got ya mama's style
But you're still a study child!
To me, so jaded!
I know it's sad, but is that where it's supposed to be?
You're getting there all over me
X-rated!!

Ma-wah, babe blue!
I'm thinkin' about ya
Wah-wah, babe blue!
Yeah, ya'll so jaded,
And I'm the one that jaded you!

Hey! J-j-jaded!
I know it's misery but you'll always be what I loved
And hated!
And babe take a ride to the other side
We're thinking of!
Well slip into the velvet glove
And be jaded!

Ma-wah, babe blue!
Yeah, I'm thinkin' about ya
Wah-wah, babe blue!
Yeah, I'm so jaded,
And baby I'm afraid of you!


Ant was great. His voice was a little bad, but they liked it, because it was fun. Fun.
They needed that now.

"My turn! My turn!" Rinoa shouted. She hopped on stage and Ant gave her the mic.

She cleared her voice, and started. Squall blushed.

*5
Come on, buzz me up to heaven baby…

Honey to the bee!
I close my eyes and I see you clear
It feels like you're lyin' here
(Na-nah-nah)
All the things I wanna say come and go
Easy as the breeze those words just flow
(Na-nah-nah)
I flow on air like a gummy feather
Your love's so sweet, like an open flower
I'm dizzy from the time we spent together
I need that honey drip every hour!

Rinoa got off the stage and walked towards Squall, who was smiling at her with a
look like 'I'm going to kill you' style. Seifer barely held back a laughter, and so did
the rest.

I'm thinking about your sugar lips!
Got a feeling for you now that's so strong!
I'm dreaming of the candy in your fingertips!
Baby, don't stay away from me too long!
I've been amissing you!
I should be kissing you!
Honey to the bee, that's you for me!
I wouldn't tell a lie,
God, a love a can't deny,
Honey to the bee, that's you for me!
Honey to the bee, that's you for me!
Honey to the bee!!!

Come on, buzz me up to heaven…
"I'm going to kill you later…" Squall said. "Now I have to sing." He said and took
the mic from her. Actually, that had been Rinoa's plan. To force him sing. Well, if she
wanted him to sing, she'd get it. He nodded at the other guys, asking them for
background vocals.
*6
You don't run with the crowd
You go your own way
You don't play after dark
You light up my day…
Got your own kind of style
That sets you apart!
Baby, that's why you captured my heart…
Rinoa's jaw dropped. Squall sang so beautifully! She had never imagined that soft,
low, mysterious voice he had would tie so nicely with music. The rest lost it to. They
had never imagined Squall singing. Well, that was a surprise. But, the soul of a man is
an abyss after all…

I know sometimes you feel
Like you don't fit in
And this world doesn't know,
What you have within
When I look at you, I see something rare
A rose that can grow anywhere! (Anywhere…)
And there's no one I know,
That can compare!

What makes you different, (yeah!)
Makes you beautiful! (Yeah)
What's there inside you
Shines to me (to me)
In your eyes I see
All the love I'll ever need!
(I'll ever need my girl)
What makes you different,
Makes you beautiful to me! (To me)
(Hey, yeah…yeah…)

You've got something so real,
And it touched me so deep (so deep)
See, a tear on your face (on your face)
(Don't matter to me)
So come as you are
You have nothing to prove!
You won me with all that you do!
(And I wanna take this chance)
To say to you!
What makes you different, (yeah!)
Makes you beautiful! (Yeah)
What's there inside you
Shines to me (to me)
In your eyes I see
All the love I'll ever need!
(I'll ever need my girl)
What makes you different,
Makes you beautiful …

You don't know! (Don't know!)
How you touched my life!
(Touched my life!)
Oh, there's so many things
I just can't describe!
You taught me what love is supposed to be,
You saw the little things that made you
Beautiful to me!
(Soooo beautiful!)

What makes you…
What makes you…
What makes you different! (Ohh…yeah!)
Makes you beautiful (beautiful!)
What's there inside you
(Shines…)
Shines to me! (To me!)
In your eyes I see
All the love I'll ever need!
(All I need my girl…)
What makes you different…(yeah…)
Makes you beautiful to me…(yeah…)

You're beautiful, to me…
(To me…)
Rinoa hugged Squall with a happy smile on her face as the others cheered and
laughed. The party was going loud, loud, loud, when Irvine took the mic to put up
more dancing. He threw off his long jacket, and told the other guys to join him.

"Let's shake this place!!!" He yelled.

"Uh-oh, not that one again…" Zell groaned. But, he cleared his voice.

*7

(If you wanna dance, )
(This is a chance!)
(If you wanna dance,)
(Let's take a chance!)

Jiggi-jump to the beat!
And keep bouncing!
Thirty seconds and counting!
Hot one!
Disc choice critical!
Situation is difficult!
Ma cell lab on allow me
To rhyme on am level you people
Can't hear me, see me

In the meantime,
Bounce to the beat scheme

(Music is ma life)
(Cause ma life is music)
(The beat of the drum)
(In your heart!)
(Let's dance!)
Can't you feel it
Don't you hear it?

(Let's dance!)
(Can't believe it)
Better believe it, here we go!
(Let's dance!)
All the women come on together on the floor!
(Let's dance!)
You know that you've got what I like!

Ares took it from there.

Check it on!
Check it, rippin' floors
On the beat
Hopin' that you people
Get the sound as you need
'Cause I like to party!
Like to party!
Come on everybody!

(Music is ma life)

(Let's dance!)

Oh yeah, I wanna dance!
(Better believe it, here we go!)
Oh yeah, I wanna dance!
(All the women come on together on the floor!)
You know that you've got what I like…
Everyone was dancing, Irvine, Ares and Zell were on the stage doing the main trio,
while Seifer, Ant and Squall were just dancing below, singing aloud along. The guys
were great, like they had been practicing this. Not that they had anyway. But they
were great. Caesar had been murmuring the tune with Sylvia. They both had not
exactly entered the hall, just peeped their heads in to watch.

"Hey, Selphie girl! May I have a tune please?" he said.

"Sure, your Dragon Highness!" Selphie giggled.

"Roll it!" Caesar said with a roar.

*8
E-le-va-tion!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!

High, higher than the sun,
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to, elevate me here,
The corner of your lips,
Is the orbit of your hips,
Eclipse, you elevate my soul!
I've got no self-control!
Been livin' like a mole,
Goin' down, excavation!

Iron eye, in the sky
You make me feel
Like I can fly, so high,
E-le-va-tion!

Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
E-le-va-tion!

Star, you look like a cigar,
Stood out like a guitar,
Maybe you could educate my mind
Explain all these controls,
The secrets of your soul,
The goal, is elevation,
A mole! Digging in a hole!
Digging on my soul now,
Going down, excavation!

Iron eye, in the sky
You make me feel
Like I can fly, so high,
E-le-va-tion!

Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
Hooooh! Hoh!
E-le-va-tion!
For a dragon, Caesar had an impressive octave, and quite surprised the others with his
abilities. After all, 'Elevation' was his favorite song…

"Hey, Quistis! You didn't sing! Take it girl!" Caesar said.

Quistis hesitated, but she though, what the heck, and took the mic to do her part.

*9
I haven't slept at all these days,
It's been so long since we've talked.
I have been in many tides, yayay…
I just don't know what I'm doin' now…

What can I do to make you love me?
What can I do to make you care?
What can I say to make you feel this?
What can I do to get you there?

There's only so much I can take
And I just gotta let it go
And who knows, I might fell better, yeah…
If I don't try and I don't hope…

What can I do to make you love me?
What can I do to make you care?
What can I say to make you feel this?
What can I do to get you there?

No more waiting, no more aching…
No more fighting, no more…trying…
Seifer kind of reacted on impulse. He just jumped on stage, and Quistis threw the mic
at him. He grabbed it in mid-air to take on his favorite one…

*10
Crawling in my skin!
These wounds they will not heal!
Fear is what I fear!
Confusing what is real!

There's somethin' in me that
Pulls beneath the surface,
Consuming, confusing…
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending,
Controlling…I can't seem…

To find myself again…
My walls are closing in…
(God the sense)
(The confidence)
(Stop its too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before…
So insection!!!

Crawling in my skin!
These wounds they will not heal!
Fear is what I fear!
Confusing what is real!
Seifer led the crowd. Screams and roars followed his part. The loud rock music filled
the hall and made everyone sing, or rather yell along.

Squall caught his father dancing around.

"You didn't sing!" he said with a conspirating face.

"Oh no…" Laguna started.

"Oh yes you are! Hey! Seifer! The mic!" Squall shouted.

Seifer threw it at him, and Squall passed it to Laguna.

"Fine kid!" Laguna giggled as he took the mic. "Hey little Sorceress! This is for you!"
he said. "Hey, Zell! Make that guitar cry!"

*11

Somewhere they're speakin'
It's already comin' in,
All of this risin'
At the back of your mind
You never could get in,
Unless you were fet in
And now you're here
And you don't know why
But, under the skin seeds an oath,
Scared parts,
Pass the places where you used to learn
Howl and listen,
Listen away for…
Echoes of angels who won't return!

Laguna pointed out at Squall.

He's everything you want!
He's everything you need!
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be!
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why!

You're waiting for someone,
To put you together,
You're waiting for someone
To push you away,
There's always anotha
Wound to discova,
There's always something more
You'd wish he'd say…

He's everything you want!
He's everything you need!
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be!
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why!

But you'll just sit tight,
And watch it unwind!
It's only what you're askin' for!
And you'll be just fine,
When all of this time,
It's only what you're
Waiting foooooooor….

Out of the island,
And into the highway,
Pass the places where
You might have turned…
Never did know this,
But you still hide away,
Angle of angels who won't return!

He's everything you want!
He's everything you need!
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be!
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why!
Take it Squall!

Laguna threw the mic back to Squall who caught it and continued.

I am everything you want!
I am everything you need!
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be!
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you
And I don't know why!

…I don't know…why…why…
Don't know…
After that, Squall threw the mic back to Irvine. Irvine started a new song, and Squall
pulled Rinoa away. They sneaked out of the hall, and headed for the Quad, on their
own.

"Man, that was a great party…" Rinoa giggled.

"Yeah, Selphie sure did it again this time." Squall replied.

"You sing great."

"You too. I liked that song…the one you sang."

"Oh, really?"

"Yeah. Say, did you really mean that? That I'm honey to the bee for you?"

Rinoa smiled.

"Yeah…"

"Oh…"Squall said with a smile, and lifted his eyebrow. "Is it so?"

"Yes…"

"And that 'I'm pretty good at bed' huh?"

"Yes."

"You are incredible."

"So are you."

Rinoa put her arms around Squall's neck.

"Yes, my Sorceress?" Squall said, knowing she was going to ask something.

"So…what do we do now?"

"You decide Miss Wings. I promised you we'd do anything you want now."

Rinoa smiled.

"Then…Let's go and…bonk the rabbit!" she said with a giggle.

"Ah, now we're talkin'! Your dorm or my dorm?"

"Yours, cause I have a double with Selphie, while yours is private."

Squall smiled and kissed her.

"Move it then!" he said afterwards with a laugh.
