-It begins-

Squall blinked and looked around him, he was standing on 2F with quite a crowd gathered around him as he was holding Zell up by the collar of his jacket. Zell looked at Squall strangely.

"Okay that Seifer calls me chicken-wuss I can live with, but you off all people calling me a girl...I mean come on, I deserve more than that! He whined, squirming in Squall's grip.

The latter dropped Zell unceremoniously to ground a wild and cornered look in his eyes. Zell looked up as he sat on the ground and for once the martial-artist caught up with something before his commander did and jumped up, giving his friend a jovial slap on the back and, ignoring the glowering look he received from Squall, started in a loud voice, "But anyway you were probably here to ask me to go train with you, right?

Squall looked at him and said, "No, I was on my way to see Rin-," "Yes, of course you were. Follow me!" Zell interrupted quickly dragging the flabbergasted Squall with him. Dammit! It's worse than before, better go get Kinneas before he goes ballistic, Zell thought and then because...he was still Zell, oh Hyne, why me!

Irvine Kinneas, sharpshooter, cowboy and ladies man stepped out of the shower as he looked at his bed grinning as his latest catch, a red haired beauty who was always hanging around the library, lay on it totally spent and probably out cold for the next few hours. He was just in the process of putting on his shirt when a knock sounded at his door, Who could that be, he thought . He walked the short distance while he tugged his coat on, he just wasn't presentable without it, and opened the door. He was greeted with the sight of an exhausted looking Zell pulling a feebly struggling Squall along with him. One look at his leader was enough for Irvine to know what was wrong. Damn, Damn, Damn it's happened again the second time in two weeks!

"You guys aren't here for tea, are you?" he said as he grabbed Exeter.

After a few minutes they arrived at the Training Room, Zell strapping on his Ehrgeiz and after a few seconds Squall slid Lionheart out of it's sheet. Irvine and Zell looked at each other warily as they caught the glint in their friend's eyes. They stepped into the Training Room and were imidiatly faced with a horridly mad T-Rexaur. Squall didn't even bother shouting commands at his friends as he jumped from attack position to a tree branch placed conveniently over the head of the creature. He threw his Gun-blade down to the T-Rexaur's throat as he jumped after it. The blade stuck into the neck of the beast and Squall's added weight when he jumped onto the hilt forced it deep into the gory hide. The T-Rexaur's eyes widened in pain and it's mouth opened to let out a horrifying scream of agony. Squall tried to pull his blade out of the neck of the creature but due to it's trashing and the thickness of it's hide made it hard to just pull it out. Irvine was ready to intervene when Zell stuck out his hand and said, "He has to do this himself." Irvine looked at his friend and noticed for the first time how much Zell had grown, and not only that how much he cared for his commander, his friend. Irvine wished that he could experience friendship like that, he wondered when the hell that happened.

Squall still struggling to un lodge his blade from the T-Rexaur's neck, pulled the trigger of his Gun-Blade which caused the creature's eyes to widen in pain afterwards they rolled to the back of his head. The cause was that the bullet went straight through it's jugular vein causing a spray of gory red blood to spray over the trees and the grass below. The beast toppled over and came crashing down to the floor where it stayed blood oozing from under it's body. Squall gave a tug at Lionheart which, slick with blood, came loose easily.

He looked around and saw he was in a black room with walls so far apart he couldn't make them out, he tried to gain his bearings when suddenly he understood where he was. He screamed.

The screams resounded of the wall of the Training Room as Irvine and Zell looked at the sobbing wreck their commander had become. They gave each other a sidelong glance and started walking to him.

When they were at his side Squall's franticly groping hands gripped the hem of Irvine's coat. He looked up at both Irvine and Zell and looked like he didn't recognize Irvine but when he looked at Zell his expression cleared somewhat and he said, "Zell, their coming for me...they took her away and now their coming to kill me. Help me Zell! Help me find her!" When he said this his eyes drifted out of focus again and he slumped to the ground unconscious.

Zell looked down at his commander's still form, after which he addressed Irvine, "Irvine, go to Quistis' classroom and get her, after that have her call Seifer and then come back here, and please hurry." Irvine could only nod as he looked at Squall's unmoving body. He started to back away when a deafening roar come from the trees, another T-Rexaur bounded over to Zell and Squall. Irvine grabbed Exeter and fired once at it's face which blinded it. Zell screamed a "Run!" towards his friend and then turned around to face the beast.

Because it was blinded it became more enraged, it had just seen it's mate die a very painful death and now it had been blinded by some sort of metal object. It thrashed around trying to gain it's bearings. The confused monster never saw Zell jump onto it's tail afterwards he ran along it's back and delivered a crushing blow to it's cranium. The blow was so powerful it blew up the beasts head making pieces of bone and brain drift down to the ground. The T-Rexaur swayed on it's legs and then came crashing down. Zell wiped his hands at his pants leaving them covered in blood. He looked towards Squall and saw him sitting on his haunches rocking back and for chanting some kind of mantra which he couldn't make out. Zell hoped Irvine would come back soon. Just then he heard another roar behind his back, Crap!, he thought before turning to face the third T-Rexaur this day, Just our luck to choose frigging mating season!
