The group had reached Balamb town in no time. They only hoped that they wouldn't be too late. Seifer trudged by himself as usual. The event of last nights' dream was still replaying in his mind. Neibia was worried and decided to go talk to him.
"Seifer," she began while they were walking along. "You seem troubled." Seifer laughed dry.
"Shit of course I'm troubled," he scoffed. "My girlfriend could be dead." Niebia nodded with understanding.
"Seifer, you're not the only one who cares about Angelina," she explained. "She happens to be my best friend."
"Yeah, whatever," he moaned. 'Nobody will ever love her the way I do.' Neibia sighed and walked away. 'He's just too hard to deal with. I wonder how the gifted one deals with him?' Quistis then noticed and went to talk to Neibia.
"Neibia," she asked. "What's going on with Seifer? I know Angelina is in trouble, but he's acting the way he was before he met her." Neibia shrugged.
"He obviously cares for her a great deal."
"I know, I kinda wish Angelina hadn't have come here." Neibia looked confused.
"Why would you ever say something like that about Angelina," she gasped. Quistis sighed.
"I don't know. It's just that I'm in love with Seifer," she explained. Neibia giggled. "What? What's so funny?"
"It's just that both you and Angie love the same man. It's cute." Quistis groaned. Would Seifer ever love her back? Sure he said he only loved Angelina, but things might not work between them. 'It's not fair. I love him so much...it hurts.'
They finally made it back to Balamb garden. First, they went to the infirmary to make sure Angelina was still there. Unfortunately, she wasn't.
"Dr. Kadowaki," Seifer asked, panicked. "Where's Angelina?" She turned to him with a pained expression on her face.
"I'm sorry Seifer," she apologized. "She's gone." Seifer started to sob. He hadn't cried this much since he found out no one wanted him at the orphanage. 'Hyne! Am I meant to suffer? Was I made to absorb pain every day of my life!'
"She's not dead is she," Neibia panicked. She didn't want to lose her best friend. She had already lost her mother at birth. She wouldn't be able to handle losing her best friend too!
"No," Dr. Kadowaki said quietly. "She left garden. She was not under her own control I believe." Seifer growled as he dried his eyes.
"Adel," he hissed. "She did this! I'm going to kill her; I'm going to- he was cut off as Quistis put her hand on his shoulder.
"Seifer, we can't do any thing reckless," she advised. "It could end up killing her." He nodded. 'I can't have Angelina die on me.'
"So," Selphie questioned. "What are we going to do?" Squall shrugged.
"Dr. Kadowaki," he asked. "Where did she go?"
"I think I may have heard her say something about going to Esthar."
"Oh no," Squall gasped. "My dad...he's in danger!"
"Don't worry," Neibia assured him. "Adel isn't going to go after your father. She's going to kill Angelina and all those innocent civilians there." Selphie gasped.
"Oh no," she squeaked. "We've got to save her and all those innocent people!"
"Yeah," Irvine agreed. "I agree with Selphie."
"Very well," Squall sighed. "Let's go, but first we must tell headmaster Cid where we're going." Everyone left the room except Neibia, Seifer, and Dr. Kadowaki.
"Seifer," Neibia whispered. "What if we find Angelina dead?"
"Then we kill Adel...once and for all. Angelina would have wanted that." She nodded as they left the room. Headmaster Cid and Edea were expecting them.
"Seifer," he warned. "This is a dangerous mission. You might not come out alive. You and Neibia are to go to Esthar and stop Adel at all costs. If worst comes to worst, kill Angelina."
"Kill her," Neibia gasped.
"Yes, if it is absolutely necessary."
"Wait a minute," Quistis demanded. "What about us? Aren't we coming too?" He shook his head.
"It's too dangerous for all of you to come." Zell started to punch the air angrily.
"What the hell do you mean?" he boomed. "We fought and defeated Ultmecia! Don't tell me we aren't ready for it!"
"Zell you don't understand," Edea began. "Adel is far more deadly than you can possibly imagine. Besides, we need you here in case she comes back." Zell nodded.
"Very well," Cid tried to beam. "You two must leave immediately. Remember, if all else fails, you are to kill Angelina."
Note: Okay, I know that this chapter is super short! The next one will be much longer. We're almost to the end!
