Diary Returned

*************

Zidane entered the library. The only people inside are the researchers. Suddenly, someone pulled Zidane at the arm and told him to keep quiet, as he was about to go out. "What do you think you're doing?" Zidane said.

"It's me, Regent Cid," said Cid.

"Cid? I thought you were at the guest room with Hilda," said Zidane.

"I was, but I had to go and use the restroom. I saw you when I came out holding my diary so I decided to hide here and ask you to come," said Cid.

"Wouldn't it be much better if I just gave it back to you at the guest room?" asked Zidane.

"And be embarrassed in front of two ladies? I'm not crazy," said Cid.

"Well, that's true," said Zidane.

"Enough talk, now give me back my diary," said Cid.

"Alright, here. Oh yeah, I also read what happened to you when you were young like the time that you stole your best friend's wedding suit and all his clothes and the time that you got yourself stuck in a chair," said Zidane.

"You read it? Oh well, I knew you'd do that. Don't tell anyone about it or I'll let you have two more weeks of class with Doctor Tot. Your still haven't got any manners," said Cid.

"What?! Another two whole weeks with him?! No way! It's too boring," said Zidane. "Alright, I won't tell anyone about you. Besides, Dagger's gonna punish me if she knew I read it," said Zidane.

"I almost forgot, this is for you," said Cid as he handed something to Zidane.

"What's this. It's an old piece of paper," said Zidane.

"What are you talking about? That is from Queen Garnet's father. He told me to give this to Garnet's husband before he died," said Cid.

"He wants to give me an old piece of paper with nothing on it?" said Zidane as he observed the paper.

"He wrote something there, I know. I saw him writing something before he gave me. Then he used some kind of magic to make the paper look empty. He told me that the words would appear when the time comes. So always keep it with you," said Cid.

"I will," said Zidane as he put the paper inside his pocket.

"Now let's go to the guest room," said Cid.

"Mail for someone named Vivi," said Artemecian as he entered Black Mage Village.

"Thanks," said Vivi as he took the letter from Artemecian. He went to his room walking past Mikoto while opening his letter. Artemecian stood outside the chocobo shack with another moogle to rest for a while. Mikoto went inside the chcobo shack and found Bobby Corwen eating his food. She sat down beside him and patted his head.

"It's been a long time since I've received a letter," Mikoto thought. "Maybe I should write one, but for who?" Mikoto stared at the ground as she began to think of someone to write a letter to.

"Zidane," she whispered after a few minutes. She stood up and went out of the shack. She went to her room and took out a piece of paper and began writing a letter for Zidane. She gave it to Artemecian and asked him to deliver it to Zidane.

"I hope Zidane would receive my letter, it's getting a bit boring here," said Mikoto as she stared at the water outside her room.

Author's Note: Finally! A chapter with Mikoto in it. Can anyone tell me the difference between a Catholic and a Christian? Please.

I remember having some mistakes in some chapters. Sorry. I just noticed it while checking it a few days ago. I know the title of this chapter sucks. Sorry, I couldn't think of a good title because I was in a hurry. My little brother kept on asking me to let him use the computer.

Do you think FF8 and FF9 will make a good movie?

Thanks to those who read and reviewed!!! ^_^
