When the war starts

Squall sighed, closing his eyes and trying to sleep. It had almost been a week since the last soldier had come and there was still no sign of the war. And he hadn't seen the blonde soldier either. Squall wondered why. Maybe the war was going to start soon.

"What are we going to do if it does." His whispered question stayed unanswered when there was a soft knocking on his door. Fedel entered the room and walked towards the bed.

The old man stared at him before opening his mouth. "We have to leave Squall," He started. "The war just begun."

Squall blinked a couple of times before getting up, grabbing the large robe up from the ground, and following Fedel. Squall looked sideways at the man when they were walking down the long hall. Fedel seemed to be nervous, his eyes were dancing around and didn't stop for one second.

"Fedel." Squall's voice seemed to startle the old man for a minute but soon Fedel looked at the boy and smiled.

"What is it?"

"What happens now?" Squall asked, knowing they had reached the chapel.

"I don't know Squall." Fedel said and opened the large wooden doors that led to the large chapel. Fedel walked over to some older monks and started to talk with them.

Squall looked around. There was a small group of soldiers there, they were standing together whispering. Squall could see the blonde soldier and smiled.

Zell turned around, feeling someone's gaze on him. He smiled when he saw the brunette standing alone, looking at him. He walked over to him and crossed his arms. "We are going to a safe place, don't worry."

"I'm not worrying," Squall said and looked at the ground. "I'm not afraid of the war, I knew it would come."

Zell sighed. "You seem to be the only one who believed it."

"You can't blame them," Squall defended. He knew perfectly well the blonde was talking about the monks. "They believe, something soldiers don't do. Every part of their being is against you."

"Are you against me?" Zell whispered and looked at the boy.

The brunette looked at the ground before answering. "The teachings say I should be against you..."

Zell nodded and walked away. "To bad, I was just starting to like you."

Squall followed the man with his eyes. He started to talk to some guy, he felt horrible for acting that way towards the soldier but he had been honest. The brunette sighed and looked around, he was going to apologise.

Zell saw the brunette boy walk over to him and Zechs and grinned. Zechs turned around and looked at the boy, smirking. "Hello there."

Squall looked at the black haired man with big stormy blue eyes before turning towards the blonde. "I don't believe in the teachings." He whispered and smiled at Zell.
