Chapter 7
"Ok sir, this is where you will stand and wait for the kidnappers." Elsee pointed to the docking area of Balamb Harbor on the map. The whole time she was trying to contain a laugh that was threatening to escape her.
Squall who noticed this growled slightly while itching his arms. He hated these clothes. Why did he have to dress up like Rinoa, they could have made Selphie, Xu, or even Elsee do it, but no, it had to be him.
At that moment Rinoa walked in along with the rest of the gang. Squall could tell she had been crying by the slight red under her chocolate brown eyes and her slightly tear stained face.
His heart went out to her. He now would do anything to get Rinii back, even if it meant cross-dressing for one day.
~~~~~~~~~
The clouds turned a dark gray and the sight of an erie forest surrounded them. A slight snow fell from the large clouds which soon turned into an all out blizzard. Rinii shielded her eyes with her hands as the snow stung at her cheeks. Sirrin seemed unaffected by the storm and kept trudging through it at a fast pace the whole time keeping a tight grip on her arm.
"Please Sirrin, can we slow down." she begged
He looked at her once and turned away dragging her on.
"Please...Sirrin.......". Feeling she couldn't take it anymore she dropped to the ground. Sirrin let go of her as she fell. Her chest was burning from the cold air and her eyes were red from the stinging snow.
"You wanna die out here?!?" he yelled. "We need to find somewhere to stay.....that is unless you wanna be the headmasters ice sculpture daughter??"
He then pulled her up and began dragging/pulling her along again. He to was really cold and really tired, but he knew they both would die if they didn't find some sort of shelter.
They walked about 300 more feet to find and old abandoned cave. The cave was covered by dead vines and mounds of freshly fallen snow. Small rocks hung off ledges, daring the wind to move them.
The inside of the cave was pitch black. It smelled of rotting corpses from many nights ago. Every so often they would hear the sickening crack of bones being crushed under their feet.
It seemed to be abandoned, there wasn't any real sign of life, except of course for the tiny brown mice which scurried about.
Rinii, who by now was practically dead from exhaustion pulled away from Sirrin and felt her way to the back of the cave. She found a nice little corner and sat down, bringing her knees up to her chest, she wrapped her arms around them and rested her head on her knees.
Sirrin just stood in the darkness. After mumbling something incoherent he felt his way out of the cave.
Rinii, was slightly curious as to where he was going but decided not to follow him. She seemed to have caused him enough trouble today.
Sirrin came back about half an hour later carrying some firewood, if you really wanted to call it firewood, they looked more like sticks to Rinii. He bunched them up and grabbed his backpack. Pulling a lighter out he set the flame to the side of the sticks and waited for them to catch fire.
The fire didn't provide much warmth but it was sure easier to see with it. Sirrin looked over to Rinii who was sitting in the corner of the cave. She seemed deep in thought. Sirrin then got up and slowly walked over to her. He sat down a few inches away and looked in her direction.
"Are you cold?"
The sound of Sirrin's voice brought Rinii back to earth. She looked and him. He looked handsome in the fire light, especially his eyes.
*Of course im cold!* She thought. *How I would love to run over there and cuddle in your warm muscular arms..............WAIT....WHAT THE HELL AM I SAYING?!?! Do I like him?? No I can't ......it's impossible! Come on Rin get a grip this is Sirrin we're talking about...OK!*
"Uh..earth to Leonhart?" "NO" She yelled "..I'm fine." "So that's the kind of thanks I get for saving your life, going against my Dad, and running away from home."
Rinii just ignored him and looked into the fire. She watched as some of the burning embers of the sticks bounced away from the fire and gracefully landed on the cold stone floor and slowly burned out, leaving a dark black spot where a once beautiful light was.
