Chapter 3: The Unknown Town or Kurekri

Disclaimer: me no own FF8 or its characters.

A/n: YAY! Thanks to all you readers. I hope you like this new chapter. I'm glad I came up with something to continue this story! Well on with the story! ENJOY! I've tweaked a little with the other chapters too. PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!

So far, the sailing was good. Rinoa felt confident that she would find Squall.

"ZELL!" The shrill agitated voice of Quistis echoed through the airship.

Zell rushed to Quistis unaware of the mistake that would get him into trouble.
"What?" Zell said confused.

"What do you call this?!" Quistis held up a large bag of frozen hotdogs.

"Hot.dogs." Zell replied unsure of what the catch was.

"And why was it the only food I could find on the whole ship!?" Apparently not every one likes hotdogs as much as Zell does.

"Because.they're.good?"

"Do you expect us to eat hot dogs for 3 days!?" Quistis violently through the bag of hotdogs back into the freezer. "What do you think this is! SeeD training?!"

"No."

"Go up and tell Selphie that we need to find a town to stop at soon. I'm not eating hotdogs for breakfast, lunch and dinner."

"But we have breakfast corndogs for break-"

"I don't care! GO!" Quistis yelled as she pointed to the exit to the kitchen and she watched Zell slowly shlump out and up to the source of Selphie's singing.

After Zell was gone Rinoa, who had been listening to they're argument. well if you could call it an argument, hesitantly entered the kitchen.

"Don't you think you went a little hard on him?" Rinoa said as she entered startling Quistis who was rummaging through the fridge.
"What do you mean?" Quistis said as she closed the fridge door and stood up.

"Well, it's Zell," she started.

"Oh, I only give him grief because its fun," she said. "And you have to admit its funny too."

Rinoa forced a giggle. She really didn't think it was funny, but oh well.

Rinoa and Quistis were caught off guard when the ship landed.

"I didn't think there was a town or city near Edea house," Rinoa said.

"There isn't. At least not on all the maps I've studied." Quistis answered confused.
Rinoa, fallowed by Quistis ran to the elevator.

"Oh hey guys! Is this place okay?" Selphie asked them once they reached the captions.um place.thing. (A/n: Sorry I'm not that good with space ship talk and stuff.)

"Well, it would be if I knew where we were," Quistis answered.

"I dunno. You said find a town, I did!"

Rinoa pulled out her map and laid it on a table were Selphie was sitting.

We should be about.there," Selphie said as she pointed to the middle of an open plain.

"But that's noting but a plain." Quistis said stating the obvious.

"I think we should just go check it out," Irvine said from the back of the room. "Maybe we can get some answers."

"Okay, lets just hope it's not hostile." Quistis said as she walked towards the elevator. The others fallowed her, and out into the open they went.

A sign at the entrance of town read Welcome to Kurekri.

"Well that answers two of our questions," Zell mumbled.

They walked into the town. It was fairly modern for not being on any maps. Most of the buildings were white and had red roofs with some weird patterns on them.
Most of the people were old. One old woman was outside hanging her cloths on a line. Most of the clothing was colorful. The men wore brown or blue pants and a large white or reddish shirt fallowed up with a colorful vest. The women wore colorful skirts and dresses with large jewelry.

Towards the back of Kurekri there were cute little red and white huts, probably for housing. Trees grew around the village giving it a beautiful touch.

"Excuse me," Rinoa went up to the old woman who was now folding sheets. "Can you tell me where we are?"

"Young kids now days," the woman started. Her voice was old and shaky. "Can't look to read a sign? Got to ask an old woman? Well I'll tell 'ya You're in Kurekri. You're the first out-sider I've seen in a long time." The woman paused and coughed. "There are some small shops, mainly food and medicine along the eastern side of the city. And there's an Inn too. I don't suppose it would be that expensive. No one ever comes here. No one knows about here." The woman stopped again and looked into Rinoa's eyes. "Now be off with 'ya! I have work to do!" And with that she shooed Rinoa off.

And with that the group headed east where they found a market place. They decided to split up to explore the city better.

Rinoa continued down the market place. She bought some fruit that smelt really good. She was just about ready to meet back up with the group when she realized. she was being followed.

She tried to weave around shops to make sure, and sure enough the stalker fallowed her. She stopped at a shop with nuts and beans. As she looked at the products she caught a glimpse of her stocker. It was cloaked and the hood shadowed his. or maybe even her face.

Rinoa walked on trying to quicken her pace, but the next thing she knew, her stalker had her by the arms.

S/he leaned forward. "I know where he is." Rinoa's stalker was female, and she defiantly wasn't old.

Rinoa eyes widened. She nearly dropped her groceries. Could she be talking about Squall? How would she know? No one in this town knew of her mission. And with those five words she let go of Rinoa and jumped into a tree and out of Rinoa's sight.

@#$%

So what do you think. Not one of my better chapters but I hope it gets better. PLEASE REVIEW!

Now I will respond to my reviewers!

phrozen-heart: I hope you like FF survivor. I don't know when I'm going to be done with it but I hope you like it when it does.

Taylor15: Thanks! I hope you liked this chapter!

Yayo: Thanks. I need to talk to you about survivor. And Chibi Hiei should be coming soon!

squeakychris: I like my profiles where they are. If you have played FF8 you shouldn't need them anyways. I don't why people would flame me I just never like my stories. I'm glade you like it.

Rinoa36: No offence but Rinoa does seem to whine a lot, so I think it sounds like Rinoa. I like her though, thus the story in her pov.

Richard (Anonymous reviewer): Thanks for your support. I'm glad you liked it. I hope you will like the next chapters.

gentle angel: Thanks. I'm sorry I'm bad with descriptions. I guess I figure that every one knows what they look like so why take the time writing it out. Some times when I write description it turns out to suck a lot.

Karla3: I hope this does turn out to be a good fic!

Red Eyes2: I don't think this is going to be short. And if Squall entered then what kind of crap would that be?

Thank you all for reading my story. I hope you like my new chapeters and stuff! Cant wait to see you guy's reviews in the future! YAY!
