Dare I continue to delve into the minds of these wondrous beings? Well, I will, though I may mess up entirely...
Remember, I don't own these ladies, gentlemen, and monsters, none of all, but don't truly care to try changing that as I would be mowed down in the crowd.
~~Cerberus~~
I don't like humans, but I do, but then again, I don't. Having three heads, each with its own mind is a tangle. No kidding. What'd it take to figure that one out? I wish I knew. Being of three minds, we can't stick around any one place for long. They don't like us. We don't like them. Sometimes we get involved in a dispute among the mortals, they drag us in is what they do, and sometimes its worth it.

Cerberus wandered into the building the mortals called a "Garden." It didn't look anything like a place where vegetables abounded, but then again, those strange little Shumi sure could pass for one...
He noted that there was a sense of confusion in the building, and decided to make it worse. He found a nice, airy location to stand, and snapped at anyone who got too close. This scared most people off, for the most part. Then Cerberus was approached by three youths who didn't fear any of his heads. They felt of the others. One had Quezacotl, Cerberus knew, and another had Siren, and the girl had Pandemonium. Cerberus felt confident that the children weren't prepared for him, and challenged them.

~~Pandemonium~~
He assumed that just because we were there, the children had intended to attack with us. He ignored the other six that traveled with us. Cerberus' three minds were always arguing with one another, so they often missed the simplest of things.
~~--~~
When the first of the child warriors dashed up and swiped at Cerberus with his fists, the large dog laughed, thinking that if that was all they could do, they might as well give up. The girl then shot her little projectile at him, and Cerberus yelped in surprise. Not long after, the darker boy stepped forward, and seemed to look at the sky. Cerberus knew one of his brethren had been called, but in a moment of clarity so rare with three minds, he wondered which one it was.
The bat winged Diablos flew in from his own sleeping grounds and the black ball of null energy grew. When it engulfed his hand, he arched his back and threw it overhand like a baseball player. The energy flew straight at the dog-creature, and then collapsed around him.
~~--~~
~~Diablos~~
I had never heard him howl like that before. He seemed genuinely surprised to see me, as though he'd not expected any of us. By the time he recovered, I had returned to the boy's mind, and could only just hear his call of 'Why?'
~~--~~
Cerberus stood shakily, still determined to show the humans his true power, but they didn't give him the chance. The little blonde one grinned wildly, and was soon replaced by the Brothers. Or rather, the blonde disappeared, and Cerberus felt himself lifted and tossed high into the air. The next thing he knew, he was flipping head over tail and plummeting back to the ground.
When he hit, he whined and yielded. The others gave their support, so he would as well, all three minds agreed. The blonde boy and the girl both rushed up to him, to make sure he was all right, but the other stood back, thinking. Cerberus heard the argument between the others' minds.
When Squall nodded at him, Zell asked the large canine creature if it would mind napping inside his skull. It laughed at the way he said it, and he recoiled, slightly hurt. Quickly the dog reached out with its central head and licked up the side of his face, then disappeared. He felt its mind touch his, acting a lot like a happy little puppy. Zell had always wanted a pet, so he didn't hesitate to give it a place in his mind. It curled up and took a nap.

~~Cerberus~~
I didn't realize my laughter would hurt him, so when he flinched, I made amends in the only way I knew how. But that clued me in to what brought these humans here. They were fighting, and they were too young, even for their race. I decided that I would protect them all.

I got back to playing the game recently so, I can detail a few of the summons more accurately. I also know whom I actually matched up with whom at the end of the game, and I guess I didn't have Irvine at the end after all...
