Jayson stood looking out the window as Ragnarok headed back towards Garden.
He'd told the others what he'd told Spore about how he was so easily
defeated, yet kept what Spore told him a secret to himself, even from Meia
although it tore him to do so, he just didn't want to scare her away.
'You shouldn't trust Spore anyway, he was a devious creature.' Orion said helpfully inside Jayson's head.
Jayson sighed. 'Go see Siren, I need time to think.' He replied softly.
He felt Orion slink away to whatever realm GFs resided in outside the human mind and continued to think about Spore's words.
He was all alone for now, the others were sleeping on the chairs recovering from the short celebrations that Laguna had thrown for them. Jayson had been aware of how the older SeeDs had changed towards him, more respectful, awestruck even. He'd never wanted that, he'd been jealous of what they had and now it was them who felt that way about him in some small way. Although bringing Squall back in one piece seemed to have made Rinoa warmer towards him.
He looked over to the sleeping form that was Meia, looking so peaceful. Luckily she hadn't changed towards him after the death of Spore, though she may be more thoughtful about the secrets she suspected he hid from her. He knew he'd have to tell her eventually but now, especially now Spore's final words were repeating over and over in his thoughts... he didn't want to risk driving her away, he needed her to keep him from the dark.
They arrived outside of Balamb Garden to an unexpected welcome. All around the airship SeeDs and cadets alike were rushing forward yelling and screaming at Squall in anger and demand as they walked down the ramp. Jayson could see Zell Dinct rushing forward his face pale with stress and panic.
'What the hell is going on?' Squall said as he and Rinoa walked out ahead.
'Looks like some sort of riot.' Jayson said softly.
'A riot? Why would they riot?' Quistis murmured.
Zell drew closer looking at Squall and the others in relief.
'Thank Hyne you're back...' he said rapidly.
'What's happened?' Squall demanded wary of the crowding mob.
'There's been a couple of murders...' Zell said softly.
All the girls gasped in unison.
'That's still no reason to riot...' Jayson said.
Zell gulped and rubbed his hands nervously. 'They're like this because it looks like Seifer was the one that did them... they want him dead.' He told them.
'WHAT!?' the others all yelled in unison whilst the mob still raged.
Authors Note: Well that's it the end of the first FF8 fanfic I started... admittedly I stopped halfway through and started others that's why it's took me a year to complete. But the story is not over... I mean why would I leave it like that if it was? Anyway I hope those of you who have put up with this and enjoyed the fic (T.a.i.ne Dreamz especially) will be happy to know that I've got a sequel planned in which you'll find out what happens to Seifer and also something Jayson's past and secrets. Now I just have to get around to writing it! Lol
