I nudge Yuffie as we head back to the hotel.
"How did he know?"
She shakes her head for a second. "About what? Oh! About Sora and Squall? He does that sometimes. He can know everything if he likes. But." Here she sighs. "He's just too tired these days."
"Squall? Don't you mean Leon?"
"Oh, he doesn't care. He just uses that name around here to keep everyone from knowing that he's the famous Squall, the Battle Master! He's amazing, you should see him fight!" she raves.
"Believe me," I say dryly. "I've seen him."
"Oh yeah."
***
We reach the Hotel again and enter.but the men are nowhere to be seen.
"Where did they go?" I ask.
"Probably out to the Second District. They're trying to clear out the Heartless there, but I keep telling them that they'll never be able to do it."
"I want to fight."
She stares at me like I'm some sort of ghost.
"Are you crazy?!" she demands. "If you go out there, they'll get back into your soul! And you'll be lost!"
"I can take it!" I proclaim, and start towards the door.
"Oh no you don't!" she states. Whipping out one foot, she sends me crashing to the floor with one blow.
"Why not?! If I think I can do it, then I can! What's keeping you from letting me?!"
"Common sense! We're trying to save you, dope! The Heartless can tell you're here. But they can't reach you if you're nowhere near them. So for once, do what I ask you and stay here!"
I sit on the bed, confused. Why couldn't I go? I wanted to help them, not hinder them! If I could be one more fighting hand, wouldn't that make it worth their while to "save" me?
"I'm going to get the boys. You stay right here, you understand? If you leave, you'll be worse than dead, understand?" Yuffie asks.
I nod my head.
She seems to be content with that, and walks out. I battle with my feelings for a few minutes.and decide to go fight. My hand is aching to wield my sword.
I grab it from its leaning position against the wall and throw on my armor. Tying up my hair, I barge out, leaving an empty room and a swinging door.
