Squall: (*his friends look at him as he sits near the window) (*~ this will add to the effects) (*stares at them for a while)

ALL: (*Gulps)

Squall: (*turn his back at them, looking through the windows then he starts to talk as soon as the thunder fades) (*in a spine tickling voice) The night's "sun" starts to triumph over the skies of Balamb, a small town known to have unfathomable and unexplainable stories........

Seifer: (butting in) um....Squall, hey........um one moment please.

Squall: (*Looks from behind) (*~the heck?) Yeah?

Seifer: P-please talk in a normal way.

Squall: Oh..sorry...got carried away! Mind If you don't butt in?

Seifer: yeah....sorry.

Squall: (*looks back at the window) Er...where am I?

Rinoa: Um....about the town ....I guess.

Squall: Oh thanks! (*clears his throat) ....stories of "unwanted visitors" in this world. No one dared to step into this horrendous dimension, to this living nightmare. (*a strong wind starts to blow making the branches outside tap Squall's glass window) (*touching the window, his fingers tracing the droplets of water outside the window) except.... (*looks at his comrades who are now nervously looking at him) except........

Ellone: Ahhh........hummm....waitttt!

Squall: Yeah sis?

Ellone: I...umm.....Selphie text me, um........she wants me to help her fix her broken window.

Seifer: (*at Ellone) You? Fixing windows? That's a new talent?

Ellone: Um....yeah it's a girl thing....s-see you guys...and oh yes....I'm not scared so don't look at me like that.

Seifer: A girl thing? (*shrugs his shoulders) Ok, please continue Squall!

Squall: (*Yeah! two down more to go.....duh) Oh (*talks to his Ellone) and hey be careful when you passed through the corridors. It's kinda dark....outside.

Ellone: (*pretends to be calm) U-um of course!

Zell: Come on Elle, I'll escort you......

Seifer: Soooo Zell's a chicken-wuss, Zell's a chicken wuss (*teasing Zell)

Zell: Ah... ok you can go alone Elle.

Quistis: um.... I guess I'll accompany her, come on Elle, I forgot to close the faucet.

Irvine: You forgot to close your faucet? My...that's terrible! might as well check mine.

Squall: Ok...see ya guys! (*~Great! I'm glad this works! Now what have I got here, hmm...... Fujin, Zell, My Rinny and great I'll get a headache on how to drive this one out......Seifer) really guys? You don't wanna hear my story? I'll be disappointed if you just go out and leave us here? (*~heck go out)

Irvine: Ah.... Well, Zell can tell us what will happen, right Zell?

Seifer: (*annoyed) JUST GO AND LEAVE YOU COWARDS! You're delaying Squall here. Please continue and from now on .....no interruptions!

(*Irvine, Ellone and Quistis quietly step out of the room then after carefully closing Squall's door, dashed their way into their dorms) Ekkkkkk!!!!

Seifer: So....ok I guess only me, Rin, Fujin and the Chicken-wuss were left. Great! From now on, whoever goes out will be called Chicken wuss! (*~ hehe I know Zell cannot take the story anymore) Ok Squall on with your show.

Squall: (*rolls his eyes)

Seifer: Wait! I kinda lost in touch with the story can you repeat the whole intro again? And this time without any "interruptions" I'll kill whoever butts in ok?

Squall: (*slaps his head) (*looks at his wall clock) 2:00 am.

Seifer: Huh?

Squall: Oh nothing (*~ heck..... stop torturing me guys) ah yeah I said. The night's "sun" starts to triumph over the skies of Balamb, a small town known to have unfathomable and unexplainable stories, tales of "unwanted visitors" in this world, monsters and different ghosts. No one dared to step into this horrendous dimension... to this living nightmare except.... (*looks at his comrades who are now nervously looking at him) except for these 5 courageous youths.

Zell: (*counts ~starting from Squall ~ 1, 2, 3, 4,*then to himself 5) Goodness! That's us! That's us! We're five! Oh no!

ALL: Sshhhhhh!

Squall: Their mission? To unleash the mystery behind the abandoned town; They continue to stroll along the town as thick fog cloths the town's ground releasing cold mist in the air adding to the cryptic scenario of the place. Walls tainted with.....Blood-like stains,

ALL: Eewwww

Seifer: Cool!

(*rain starts to pour out heavily)

Squall: dust and rust all over the houses' railings

Zell: (*speaks uneasily) U-uh Squall...c-could y-y-ou p-p-lease don't describe the scenes .....I-I g-get the p-p-pic-ttu-rree of it.

Seifer: Why chicken wuss, are you scared of it? Heheh

Zell: N-no! I'm n-not scared!

Squall: (*looks at Rinoa) (*~ heck she's not scared of it. Welp that's good! I think Fujin and Rinoa are enjoying this after all. Huh? Wait....they're just smiling?)

Seifer: (*imitating Zell's shaky voice) Y-you ....w-what?

Zell: (*still explaining to Seifer) I-I'm t-telling you I'm n-not s-s- scared, t-the Squall's AC w-was s-set t-too hi-high.

Rinoa and Fujin: (*smiling)

Squall: (*~Huh? They're just smiling? B-but why?)

The author: so far so good ...but huh? Rinoa and Fujin were smiling though this is a horrifying story? Uh-oh...that's a problem Squall. What ya gonna do now? You can choose again from the following options.

Option 1: Stop narrating and go to solution B (If you choose this one then please choose the title Ending B: The Man with a few words)

Option 2: Stop narrating and tell them the truth (If you choose this one please go to Ending C: I'm not an Actor, I'm not a Star)

Option 3:Don't worry.Think that Rin and Fu were fine. scrutinize their behavior. (If you want this option, just click the drop down button and go to this title: Tell them a bloodcurdling story Part 2.)
