Forgiving or forgiven
When the elevator reached the second floor deck, Zell turned to Seifer.
"I don't know what's changed you, but I sure hope this change stays," Zell said. "By the way, here's your weapons, just in case. You don't know what them Galbadians are up to nowadays..." Zell gave Seifer, Fujin and Raijin their weapons and they walked through the door and into FH.
"Where do we need to go to get your stuff?"
"The mayor's house. He gave me and my friends shelter. He allowed us to keep weapons just in case they got invaded by the Galbadians again, because they just don't listen to anyone outside of their group..." Seifer trailed off, bad memories surfacing.
"Ok. Let's go then." Zell said, taking charge.
"It's all in the past, ya know?" Raijin said, looking at Seifer.
"You're right." Seifer said, looking up. They started walking. They managed to get to the Mayors house without much event, except for a very angry dog chasing the owner of the hotel. When they got to the mayor's house, they stopped.
Seifer breathed in deeply and then opened the door and walked in. He walked upstairs, and his posse and Zell followed him. He started collecting his belongings. Fujin and Raijin was doing the same. The mayor watched them pack their bags in silence.
"Seifer, is there anything I can say to make you change your mind?" The mayor burst out.
"Nope. I'm going home." Seifer said, carrying on packing. When they finished packing, Mayor Dobe leapt to his feet.
"Well, after helping to protect our town, the least we can do is to walk with you to Balamb Garden."
Seifer thought, and after a while, said: "Well, I suppose there's no harm in it. No Galbadians have turned up...the place seems pretty safe, to me. Come on then."
Together, the six of them walked up to Gardens entrance. When they got near the railway tracks, they spotted a machine.
"That looks like a Galbadian make..." Seifer trailed off.
"What are we waiting for? Lets go beat the crap out of it!" Zell shouted, bouncing about.
"Mayor, you'd better go back to your house, ya know?" Raijin said. Mayor Dobe nodded, turned round and ran to his house.
Zell, Fujin, Raijin and Seifer ran after the machine. They followed it to the train station, where it was threatening the local people with electrical prongs.
"Hey! You worthless hunk of junk! Over here!" Zell shouted. The machine stopped what it was doing, turned, and started moving towards the four of them. They got out their weapons, and set up for a battle.
"Raijin! Go back to Garden and get some help, in case we need it!" Seifer shouted, over the noise of the machine.
"I'm going, ya know?" Raijin put his weapon away and ran towards Garden.
"Scan it!" Zell shouted. Seifer drew some scan magic, and scanned it.

|Magnus Humourus HP: 45,000 |
|A giant type of machine, invented by General Caraway. It has a mind of |
|its own and can think for itself. A worthy opponent in battle. Beware of |
|strong physical and lightning attacks. Weak against: wind, water and holy. |
|Physical attacks do no damage. Absorbs lightning. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Great! What draw magic does it have?" Zell asked.
"It has holy, shell, protect, and scan. I can use water magic, and Fujin is awesome with wind magic!" Seifer yelled over the noise of the machine. By this time, Magnus Humourus was in front of them.
'I hope Raijin gets to Garden soon,' Seifer thought.

Meanwhile, Raijin was running towards Garden as fast as he could go. He had to be careful, because more of those machines were about. He managed to get to Garden without being seen by the machines, or the Galbadian soldiers. He gratefully ran through the doors on the second floor deck, and ran to the elevator. He pounded on the button, and when the elevator got to the second floor, he thumped the button to go to the third floor.
When he got to the third floor, he ran through the double doors and into Cid's office. Squall, Rinoa, Selphie, Irvine and Quistis was there. He stopped running and bent over, catching his breath.
"Where are the others?" Squall demanded.
"Galbadian machines...in FH...destroying city...stopped to battle...need help..." Raijin managed.
"Ok, team, let's go! I want the Garden ready for battle! Will the magic users be needed?" Squall asked.
"Don't know. Might as well, ya know?" Raijin said, now that he'd caught his breath.
Squall walked over to the intercom, and pressed the button. The familiar Garden chime was heard. "Everyone, get set up for battle! FH is being attacked by Galbadian machines! Everyone except for the junior classmen meet me on the second floor! Junior classmen, come up to the third floor! Cadets, escort the junior classmen to the third floor, and then go straight to the second floor." Squall preesed the button again, and the Garden chime was heard, signalling the end of the message.
"Cid, do you and Matron mind looking after the junior classmen while we are in FH? Matron, you still have some of your sorceress powers left, don't you?"
"Yes, my child. I still have a fraction of my powers left, but not enough to corrupt me into evil again." Edea said, her golden eyes glowing.
"Come on, team! We'll go by the emergency stairs, so that the cadets and junior classmen can get up here more efficiently. Let's go!"

Meanwhile, in FH, the machine was slowly going down.
"TORNADO," Fujin announced the name of the spell. It hit the Magnus Humourus in it's mid-section, and it was thrown back against a brick wall, which shattered against the weight of the machine.
"Draw! Holy!" Zell said, and the team disappeared. A bolt of light grew from the darkness, and hit the Magnus Humourus. When they faded back into sight, the machine was destroyed.
"All right!" Zell exclaimed, jumping about. "Let's go back to Garden."
When they turned around, though, they got a bit of a shock. Two Magnus Humourus had been watching them, and saw the defeat of their comrade. They didn't look too happy, as they advanced on the trio. They couldn't escape, because the only way out was behind the Magnus Humourus, so they'd have to battle their way out this time.
Meanwhile, someone was watching them from afar....
Like it? more action, anyway!
