Chapter 3
Zell ran down the hall, every now and then he would trip over his feet but was quick to catch himself. Students would watch as he flew down the first hall on the second floor, as he would go from one classroom to another. When he reached the end of the hall students could hear him mumble to himself. * Gotta find Selphie, gotta find Selphie. I have to tell her what Matron said. She has to know. * He was too excited to really think about his surroundings and didn't even notice when he passed Fujin. She tried calling to him but by the time she spoke his name he was already in the elevator looking down at the floor, arms folded waiting for the elevator to go down. Fujin stood there in shock. He had never ignored her before, even when he ate his hotdogs. *Whatever is going through his head right now it must be important. * She thought to herself.
Finally out of the elevator Zell jumped the stairs in front of him and turned to his right. Past the infirmary, onto the Quad. He ran thinking about his next move. Students were all over the place and it was hard to run through them. He knew students and even SeeD's weren't allowed to step onto the water fountain but he wanted to get to Selphie as soon as possible. He jumped onto it then did a no handed cartwheel, into a back flip so as to avoid the students walking up the stairs. Panting, knees shaking he finally made it to the Quad. But Selphie wasn't there. He looked around and grabbed a cadet walking by. By now they were pretty well known around the Garden and Zell could just about ask anybody about his friends and vise versa.
"Have.*pant*.you seen.Selphie around?"
The cadet looked at Zell instantly recognizing him and shook his head. "Um.no mister Dincht. I haven't, sorry." Was all he said then Zell let him go off on his way.
Two hours later Zell finally gave up. He was on his way to his dorm when he heard Selphie's voice along with another. It was coming from her dorm witch was right next to his. Zell slapped himself on the forehead.
"Of course of all the places why didn't I look here for her? Honestly how does Fujin put up with me ya'know." He said.
He went straight to her door and opened it. * I wonder why she never locks it?* He thought as he walked in. When he looked up he saw Selphie walking into the other room while Quistis standing there almost naked obviously trying on some clothes when she saw him. She turned red on the spot and screamed at Zell.
"Get out! Get out! Damnit Zell haven't you ever heard of knocking?!.Quit staring at me and get the hell out!" She screamed.
Zell looked down at the ground and jumped out of the room as quick as he could shutting the door in front of him. But he couldn't stop laughing. From inside the room he could hear Quistis yelling at Selphie now. "Why don't you ever lock your door! This is the last time I ever let you talk me into trying on some of your clothes! Oh Hyne he's still out there isn't he? I can't face him now." Zell was on the ground rolling grabbing at his sides.
Almost out of breath he could barely laugh. "Ha..ha! oh it hurts! Hyne help me I can't stop Hahaha!" He let out letting everyone hear.
Eventually the door opened and Quistis stepped out and walked right up to Zell. Then she slapped him. "That's for not knocking." Then she walked away.
Zell called out to her. "If it makes you feel any better I think your really hott!" He said with a huge smirk on his now red and swelling face.
He looked back and saw Selphie standing in the doorway looking at him. "Geez Zell you have some timing. Awe but your face.let me get you an ice pack k?" She said warmly.
Zell nodded his head and followed her to the small kitchen in her dorm. "So whatcha been doing?" She asked as she gently put the ice pack on Zell's face. He hissed when it touched his sore skin.
"Nothing much just talking to Matron. I had this really weird dream last night. I think it was really more of a memory I had of when we were still at the orphanage." He said.
Selphie eyes shot open. "Really well, what happened? In your dream I mean."
Zell took her hand as he spoke. "Well basically it was of you and me sitting down on the rocks.and I think .well I'm really not sure yet but I in my dream I tell you about what happened to my parents ya'know before I was at the orphanage. And in the end .what I'm trying to say is.I think you and I might be related."
Selphie's eyes narrowed. "You mean like we might be cousins?"
Zell smiled. "No, I'm pretty sure it's much closer than that. I think you might be my sister."
Selphie looked like she was going to pass out. "Are.y'you sure?
He shook his head. "No, I'm not, but from what Matron told me, I think it might be true. But to really find out I have to go to Galbadia. There's a social services office there that I think might have the answers. I think we should go to find out."
Selphie scooted back in her chair. "Do you really think we should? Shouldn't we tell the others first?"
Zell stood up. "No , I don't want them to know until we know for sure. C'mon it'll be fun. Weren't you ever curious as to why we're so alike? Don't you want to know?"
She looked down at the ground. "I'm not sure. I think I would have remembered something like this."
Zell walked up to her. "Well, we have used GF's for a while now, and I think ever since we've stopped using them that his is where these dreams are coming from."
She nodded her head. "Ok, I'll do it. I want to know now. Yippee! We can leave now and be back in time for dinner."
Zell swung a fist in the air, "Booya! Alright then let's get going."
They found the Ragnarok in the newly installed hangar of the Garden. They had stopped by Deling City so they were really close to where they had to be. Zell went to Fujin's computer and looked up where the office might be and printed out a map. Soon they were off.
As they flew out Zell was running up and down the seats and shadow boxing. He couldn't believe this was happening. He could feel a void inside him start to fill slowly. At the moment he couldn't be happier. Selphie was bouncing up and down in her pilots seat. Zell's good mood was contagious, but she couldn't help but feel a little forced into this situation. Not that she would ever tell Zell that. But she just couldn't help saying no. Soon after an hour they had reached the city and flew over it. But there was one problem. The city was in ruins. Everything was burnt to a crisp and crumbled. They looked through the windows wondering what could have possible happened.
"Hey, isn't that missile base we blew up near here?" Zell asked nervously rubbing the back of his head.
"Yeah I think so.it can't be more than a mile from here, you don't think the explosion could have done this do you?"
"I think it might have." He replied.
They landed the Ragnarok and looked around the empty city, dead would have been a better way to put it. Zell brought out the map he printed out. And scoped what's left of the buildings. They were mostly made of stone all crumbled to the ground. A few of them still stood thought he didn't think they looked to sturdy. Then he saw it. He stopped dead in his tracks, Selphie was too busy looking at the buildings and bumped into Zell but he didn't move. They both stood there staring at the ruble in front of them.
"How in Hyne's name am I going to find out the truth now?" He said.
Selphie looked at the giant mass of rocks and glass that was in front of her. Then at Zell, she could see he was really hurt. His fists were clenched tightly. She could hear him saying the same thing over and over again.
"What am I suppose to do now? What am I suppose to do now?"
A.N. So what's he going to do now? Well your going to have to wait and find out. I promise it's not what you think he'll do. Anyways do me a huge favor and review my story so I can get inspired to write more. It's easy just click the little button on the bottom left. Thanks it means a lot.
