Note: Sorry for the long wait guys. I just needed some inspiration.

Angelina had killed her own sister. True she had too but it still bit into her like poison. How she going to tell Squall? He wouldn't believe her story of how Rinoa had been possessed by Adel! She may as well slit her own throat now.
"Angelina I would like to thank you for freeing me," said the oh-so familiar voice of Julia. "Now that Adel is dead, I can finally rest." Angelina just laughed bitterly at that remark.
"Sure you can rest but what about me? My sister is dead! What am I supposed to do?"
"There is a prophecy Angelina. I'm sure you've heard about it. It claims that the gifted one must die in order to cleanse the world of Adel's evil. You may have defeated Adel, but now you'll have to die. So you can rest..."
(flashback)
"Julia there is no time," the warlock complained. "In order for the world to be cleansed you must give your powers to young Angelina Caraway. It's the only way." The two were in a cavern deep underground, with only wax candles for light. Their shadows danced in the light as they argued.
"No Mabius I refuse to put such a burden upon a young girl."
"Then you condemn us all if you lack the courage to fulfill your purpose."
"How can you be sure she the prophesized one? You could be mistaken." His cold blue eyes narrowed in fury as she finished. His brow was starting to twitch in anger on his stone-like face.
"You dare question the wise words of our ancestors? Do so wish to die a painful death."
"No," she finally replied, submitting. "Fine, I'll do it. I'll give this 'gift' to the girl. Mark my words, you have condemned her to life of pain."
"That is to be her fate then."

In the quad the weather was cloudy. No sunlight got through the dense clouds. It was Rinoa's funeral today. The priest babbled on about Rinoa's soul being safe from all harm on its way to hyne. Angelina couldn't help but feel relieved. Even though Rinoa was possessed at least her soul would be safe.
Julia was gone. Now that Adel was gone, she could rest as well. After all the torment Angelina went through, she just left without a word. 'Geez, I should have just shut up all along.'
She could feel the pressure of Seifer's hand as he squeezed her shoulder affectionately. He was doing his best to try and comfort her. He knew it wasn't easy for her to lose someone close to her. He had lost his parents at such a young age. It comforted her to know that someone cared and understood.
After he was done with his speech, the priest called Angelina up to the stage. "I want you to give us your wisdom on this matter." Angelina stared at the microphone, afraid to say what she had to say.
"Ladies and gentlemen," she shaking ling began. "As you very well know Rinoa, my baby sister is dead. I must confess that it is my fault this deed occurred. I...killed her. It was a necessary deed. You see she was possessed... by Adel."
"Adel possessed your sister?" a random woman whispered.
"Yes Adel sought to destroy the world using Rinoa's body. I having my duty as the protector of this world was forced to exterminate the threat. I did, and now Adel is gone but Rinoa is dead. Now that she's gone I must complete my purpose. I must die in order for Adel's madness to be washed away. I am sorry for those who will miss me. It must be done; it is my destiny."
With that she walked off the stage away from the appalled crowd. Seifer had a worried look on his face. Was Angelina really going to kill herself? She couldn't, he loved her! 'That doesn't matter in the least. It can't stop fate.'
He hated that nagging voice, partly because he knew it was right. Love can't prevent fate from happening. Angelina was going to die. He hated that fact. He knew he couldn't stop it from happening. He needed answers though. He had to find Angelina.
Angelina was in her room, slumped into a comfy chair. She was staring at a picture of her and Rinoa. 'She was only 16 years old. Rinoa had just told me about her new boyfriend. She wouldn't tell me his name saying, "It would spoil the surprise". She was so happy then, so innocent and pure.'
"Angelina," said a low voice.
She looked up from her picture. 'It's Seifer!' "Seifer what are you doing here?"
"Why?" he began. "Why did you kill Rinoa?"
"I thought I've already explained everything at the funeral," she sighed. "Adel possessed Rinoa and it was my duty to eliminate Adel."
"What about that talk about you having to die? What kind of shit is that?"
"Another part of my duty is to cleanse the world. In order to do that, I must be dead."
"That's bullshit!" he screamed. "Please tell me it's a bunch of shit."
"I'm sorry, it's true."
"Oh hyne," he gasped. "This isn't happening. The girl I love is not going to die."
"I'm really sorry Seifer. I love you too but it's my destiny."
"Angelina," he turned to face her. "I need to know everything about your past, before you die. I need to know how you got that gift you posses."
"Very well, I'll tell you everything."
