Silent Screams

I am so sorry for not updating any sooner. Kinda had a brain fart and couldn't think of what to put in chapter six. But I got it! And to say sorry, extra long chappy! ~Does the happy dance~ Reviews es good! So, I decided to let Seifer and Zell (who Kris may borrow unless they're in use by me ^_^) respond to recent comments and questions!

Zell: To Kris: You're site is really kawaii! Could use a little work, but then again, so could Kirie's LoL! Also, Kirie has said that you may use ANY of her work for your website!

Seifer: Hotaru9: A S/Q/S is a Squall/Quistis/Seifer, AKA: a love triangle between the three mentioned characters. It could be a Seiftis or a Quall, depending on how Kirie is feeling this should be.

Zell: To Miss D: ~nudge nudge, wink wink, hint hint~ They just may fight over each other!

Kirie: On with the writing!

Chapter Six

Seifer's eyes were glued open as he felt Quistis' lips pull slowly away. He finally blinked, shock still overcoming his body. The train pulled to a stop as he stood against the wall, staring in pure disbelief. Finally, he mumbled out, "Wow..."

Quistis took a deep breath. "I'm sorry," she said. She took one last look at Seifer, shaking her head, spinning around and grabbing her head. "I can't believe I just did that!"

Seifer gave her an odd look. "Quis, it's not that big of a deal."

She turned back around, facing him. "To me it is. I just don't go up to some guy and give him a kiss!"

Again, Seifer gave her an odd look. "So, I'm just some guy?"

"What? No! That's not what I meant!" Quistis gasped out after she realized what she said. Seifer smirked.

"It's ok, really. You've got nice, soft lips so, I enjoyed it." He winked at her and suddenly felt a hard fist hit him in the jaw. "Damnit!"

"That's what you get!" With those final words, Quistis stormed out of the room. Seifer grabbed his jaw again, grinning softly.

"What a woman..." He soon followed her after regaining his composure. He finally caught up to Quistis who was waiting on the train dock for the next train. "The train's probably not gonna be here for another half an hour."

"And how do you know?" she asked, obviously still peeved about earlier.

"It says it right there on that board." She looked to where he was pointing at feeling a bit embarrassed. "Let's do a lil' bit of shopping."

She shrugged, feeling Seifer grasp her arm and tug her away from the train. As they walked down the steps into the entrance of the city, they saw what they would never imagine. "Hyne, what happened here?" Quistis whispered out. The streets were covered in bullets and the buildings had bullet holes all around. The stores were all closed, locked and shielded from the bullets.

"Looks like a massive war broke out." They heard gunshots echoing in the distance. Seifer stepped in front of Quistis, grasping the handle of his Hyperion.

"Maybe we should," Quistis started out before being interrupted by a familiar girl.

"Rinoa?" Seifer called out. She turned to look at him, half-smiling. "What the hell is going on here?"

Both Seifer and Quistis rushed over to her. "The liberation of Timber! Didn't think it was going to go this far, but it did!" Rinoa took one hard look at Quistis. "Squall's looking for you..."

Quistis hung her head softly, knowing she would have to go back to Garden someday. "...Oh..."

Seifer sighed, looking at the now depressed Quistis. "You're gonna tell him she's here, aren't you?" Seifer asked. Rinoa looked at him hard. She knew the flame in his eye from when she was with him, and it was there now.

"It's none of my business. I dropped out of Garden so whatever she does is her decision." Rinoa smiled towards Quistis who looked as if a lot of weight had been lifted off her shoulder. "But, for me to do that, you two need to help me!" Rinoa laughed out.

Seifer smirked. "What could we possibly do for you?"

"We're running out of men here. The Timber Owls are almost gone, so if you two could possibly go to the TV station and kill a giant machine, it would greatly be appreciated!"

Quistis pouted softly. "I have no weapon, though."

Seifer nodded and looked down at his Hyperion. Rinoa chirped, "Go to the weapon shop, knock three times, wait for them to knock, then knock again, and place your order!"

Quistis smiled. For the first time, she was thankful to know Rinoa. Seifer nodded and rushed towards the weapon shop. Quistis quickly followed. They did as Rinoa told them to do, and the weapon owner called out, "What do you want?"

"A Save the Queen, please," Quistis called back. Quistis slipped the items and gil through a slot and waited patiently. A few minutes passed and through the return slot came a brand new whip. "Thanks!" Quistis turned to look at Seifer who smiled softly. "...What?"

"Nothing. Ready?" She nodded. Quistis pulled off his jacket, handing it to him, and slipped the baggy shirt's end in between her chests. Seifer gave her an odd look. "Do I even wanna know?"

She grinned softly. "I need to move around to get the amount of power in my whip. Can't move around with that big jacket on, now can I?"

He shrugged and placed his jacket on, ready to fight. She cracked out her whip in one smooth motion, and he wielded out his long Hyperion. The two darted past Rinoa who gave them a sly look. She picked up her transmitter radio, flipping it to a signal. "Squall?" she called out.

She heard static. "Yea, Rinoa?"

"Quistis and Seifer are headed towards the TV station to kill that machine..."
