Leviathan's Waterfall

A/N: the third one in this series of ficlets – enjoy!

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

"No, Leviathan ST –gggrh!" Squall spluttered angrily when the GF poured a waterfall on his head.  He grit his teeth.  If he wanted a bath he wouldn't have asked her for one, and definitely not in the cafeteria, during lunch hour!!!

"Squall!" Rinoa cried as she was showered as well, which really didn't make much difference if you consider being boot-high deep in water.  "What happened?"

"Ask me something I can answer, won't you?" Squall furiously held out his hand.  "Fira!" He hit the GF and for a second, it hesitated, and then let forth a torrent of water that flooded everything, again.

"My hotdogs!!" Zell wailed as he held up a soggy one and grimaced.  "Squall, summon her back, can't you?"

"What-do-you-think-I'm-TRYING-to-DO?!" Squall's temper was just as bad as Leviathan, and it was about to show.  Nobody likes Squall when he's angry. 

Sorry 'bout that, Master; Eden's voice came about and Squall clenched his fists.  Eden! I don't give a damn about what you do in the inter-dimensional plane, but don't bring it here! Now can you calm her down?!

I can't do it if I'm not summoned, and you can't summon me here, Master.  Eden sounded a little hurt but Squall was beyond reasoning.  I hate to do this to a GF, but here goes... "Pandemona!!"

The purple GF came out.  "Yeah?"

"Kindly send Leviathan out.  I mean OUT."

Pandemona wasn't as dense as Eden.  He nodded and took out that vacuum bag of his.  "Here we go!"

A huge tornado swirled around the room and sucked in Leviathan (and anything else that isn't rooted to the floor and walls) into that huge vacuum bag.  Squall hung onto Rinoa with one hand and the partition railing with the other as potted plants, cups, even the water was sucked in.  And...

"EEEEEP!!!!"

Through the vortex, Squall saw – "XU!"

The poor lieutenant had just entered and didn't have the time to grab hold of anything, thus she was lifted clean off the floor and sucked right in.  "Oh shit!" Squall swore as the vortex subsided and Pandemona looked at Squall.  "Out?"

Too late, the vacuum bag was pointed out of the window and with a mighty roar all the debris, Leviathan and Xu were fired out like a cannon ball.  Squall rushed to the window and saw Xu had managed to grab hold of Leviathan in mid-flight and was safely deposited on the ground.  But if Leviathan was angry before, then she's nothing short of enraged right now.  Without wasting time, Squall summoned Eden.  "Do your job!" Squall hissed at the huge eccentric GF.  "Fire her to the next galaxy if you have to!" he threatened before going back in to assess the damage which was, without saying; massive.

Rinoa clutched her head and shook it slightly.  Squall knelt down and helped her to her feet, looking for bruises.  "Are you alright, Rinoa?"

The sorceress took a deep breath.  "Bad things happen in the cafeteria, Squall.  I know now and I am *never* coming in here with you." She huffed and stormed away, leaving a very bewildered Squall.  Not for long though.  A second later Leviathan flew in the window, much to the horror of the lunch ladies.  This, Squall thought, is the main reason why the first rule of SeeD is; Never junction a GF in Garden unless under training and emergency purposes. Ever.

"Master," Leviathan sobbed, tears running down her dragon features.  "I'm so sorry..."

"I told you to keep your temper down," Squall growled.  "And whatever happened between you and Eden is none of my concern, is that clear?"

"Don't Junction us together!!" Leviathan wailed miserably.  "Or don't Junction me.  Put me with Ifrit or Bahamut or that slut Siren – "

"Levitahan!"

"Sorry." She sniffled and faded.  Squall put a hand to his forehead, Squall style.  Whoever said managing GFs are easy? They maybe a great help in battle, but he also had to remember that they're alive as well.

"Um, Squall?"

He looked down and saw Zell crouching on his knees, sodden to his socks.  But he was frowning.  

"What is it, Zell?"

"Aren't we moving right now?"

"Yes, we are, Zell."

"Then what about Xu?"
