"I don't get it! A kid can't just disappear into thin air without a trace!" Raven seethed. "Apparently so. Cause we can't find a thing." Sighed Rage. "I looked into the Balamb Garden student files-" "Student's aren't allowed access!" "I hacked, of course! But what I found was quite intriguing. There is no record of a Xeno ever being enrolled into Balamb Garden, nor any other garden. And that made me wonder so I did more digging. There's no record of a Xeno ever being born. That means technically he doesn't exist." "Freaky." "No joke." "And you can't find him anywhere in Garden?" "Nowhere." Raven sighed. Where could Xeno be? Why was there no record of him anywhere? Were her fevered hypothesis's correct? Was he really Odin? A young girl named Star ran up to them. "Hello, Rage, Raven!" she beamed at them. That was typical Star. Optimistic, always happy, forever smiling. "Yo, Star!" smiled Rage, Raven thought quite stupidly. He had the most enormous crush on Star. She was a little shorter than he, with long, glossy black curls and sparkling dark blue eyes. She always wore bright colors, pink, lime, sky blue, yellow. " What do you want?" Raven asked abruptly, unfortunately sounding very impolite in the process. "Headmaster Leonheart told me to tell you to come to his office for a briefing on a SeeD mission." Without a word, Raven took off, bold, long strides causing her brother to have to run to keep up with her. "Bye, Star! I-I'll see ya around!" he called over his shoulder. Star waved and jogged off. "Whaddya think our mission might be?" he asked, panting. "Who knows?" "You don't' have a clue? Seriously?" "Be quiet." "Why?" "Because you're annoying." "No I'm not! Honest!" "You've had to much sugar. Be quiet." "Cranky." grumbled Rage. Raven lapsed into thought as she knocked on the door of the Headmaster's office. "Come in!" Called a voice from inside. Raven and Rage entered silently. "Oh, just the people I wanted to see. Hello, Raven, Rage. How are you?" "Fine!" grinned Rage. "Allright, sir. And yourself?" "I'm okay, thanks. Anyway, down to business. You have a SeeD mission. There is a GF loose. It's not doing any harm of course. I would rather not, but Esthar and Galbadia want it eliminated immediately. Your mission is to go with Star and Yuri, our two other highest ranked SeeDs, to Galbadia and destroy it as soon as possible. Is your mission clear, SeeDs?" "Yessir." Raven gulped, a lump in her throat. "Sure we are, Headmaster! No sweat! Ciao!" smirked Rage, dragging his sister with him out the door. As they left, on their way to the front gate to meet Star and Yuri and stock up on Curagas, Rage noticed Raven's odd expression and her paleness. "What's up, sis?" "Don't you get it? GFs are my best friends. How can they expect me to kill one?" "Oh. ouch." "No joke ouch!" Raven closed her eyes. Something gave her the feeling this was gonna be the longest day of her entire life.
