More problems
"Find that bomber!" Commands Squall to the few students in front of him.
They stand in the headmaster's office awaiting his orders. "You are all
Seed's so you can find him. Look everywhere and tell me where he is.
Dismissed!"
They salute and hurriedly leave the office. Squall turns to Cid with a
rather tired look on his face.
"This is a hard job... Now I see what you have to go through everyday." Says
Squall.
"Yeah, and that's not even the worst of it." He looks down at his computer
screen. "The total damage is estimated at over 1,000,000,000 gil!" His
eye widen at the figure. "Oh my god! Where are we going to get that kind
of money!?"
"The school doesn't have that kind of money Cid. Even I don't have that
much money!" Squall sighs loudly and rubs the bridge of his nose.
'I know it's not my problem, but still that's a lot of gil.'
"How's Max?" Asks Cid after a long pause.
"He'll be okay. His shoulder wasn't badly injured."
"Hmm... I don't know if that's a good or bad thing."
"It could be both."
"That what scares me... This Max Caron person could be the one that set off
all those bombs."
Squall looks at Cid in disbelief.
"I don't think so Cid. He said he had nothing to do with it."
"You're not one to take another's words so quickly Squall!" Laughs Cid.
"He's different alright... maybe he isn't as innocent as he looks."
"He can't really be trusted Squall and you know that."
"You're right. I'm going to the infirmary to check up on things."
Squall slowly made his way to the infirmary looking at the massive amounts
of damage to Garden along the way.
'How the hell are we supposed to fix this?' He thinks while walking.
'This is way too much for us to fix...'
He suddenly finds himself standing in front of the infirmary door.
"Huh? Oh yeah." He shakes his head to clear it and walks inside. "How is
everything?"
Dr. Kadowaski looks up at him and grins slightly.
"Hi Squall everything's okay here. Lot of injuries though."
"I see." He glances around the room full of injured student's. It's a
small room so it's pretty stuffed.
"Where's Max Caron?" Asks Squall casually.
"Max Caron? Um... He's in bed number 5."
"Thanks." He walks over to the bed on the far end of the room.
"Hey Squall!" Says Max rather happily.
"Hey... how are you?" He asks coldly.
"Umm... fine, what's the bill on the school?"
'Huh, why does he want to know?'
"Squall? Something wrong?" He looks at the taller man next to him.
"What?"
"You were kind of spacing out... creepy."
"Sorry... Now do you know anything about the bombings?"
"I don't know anything about them?"
"Hmm... okay, I'll ask around then." He turns to walk away, but quickly
turns back to Max. "You know with your history there's really no reason I
can trust your word."
"I know." Back to his serious tone. "But I'm telling you the truth here.
I don't know anything about those bombs or the bomber."
Squall grunts as he walks off out of the infirmary.
On his way to who knows where he runs into Zell and (hard to believe)
Seifer in the hall.
"What are you two doing here?"
"Nothin'."
"Just checking out the scenery." Says Seifer in his cocky voice.
"I though you went to look for-" He is cut off by a loud yell.
"SQUALL LEONHEART! COME HERE RIGHT NOW!"
Zell and Seifer jump back.
'Oh no... Not now Rinoa!' Squall thinks to himself.
"Squall you have a LOT of explaining to do!" She yells as she gets closer
to him.
He turns in her direction and stares at her with more annoyed than angry
eyes.
"I don't have to explain a single thing to you." He says very coldly.
"Yes you do! Where have you been!? And why are we being attacked!?"
"On the first one... it's my own business and on the second one... I don't know
alright!"
Rinoa looks at him almost shocked.
"You!" was all she could say as she looks over at a rather frightened Zell
and Seifer.
"Uh oh!" Says Zell frightened.
"Zell get over here right now!"
"Oh shit! Um I gotta go um... do somethin'!" He runs back down the hall at
full speed.
"Oh Seifer." She says with a small child-like voice.
"Uh-uh Rinoa not this time!" His cockiness gone.
"What's the matter Seify?" She says sweetly.
"I'm gonna go and help Zell with his stuff okay!?" He runs off after Zell
"HEY WAIT ZELL!"
"Well then... You still have a lot to tell me Squall. I want to hear it
all!"
"Listen Rinoa. The only reason you're allowed to stay here is because you
helped us beat Ultimecia okay? Now please just leave me alone."
"But why Squall?"
He sighs frustrated.
"Don't you remember?"
*** Flashback***
There they were standing on the balcony of Garden after the defeat of
Ultimecia everyone celebrating. Squall and Rinoa of course sharing a
moment together.
"I can't believe we did it!" exclaims Rinoa to Squall.
"Yeah it was tough, but we did it huh?"
"Yeah. Hey look!" She points to the sky.
He looks up at the moon almost hovering above them.
"Isn't it beautiful?"
"Yes it is..."
"I wanted to tell you something Squall."
He turns to her.
"What Rinoa?"
"I... I can't be with you anymore. I have to leave."
"What!? But why!?" His eyes look almost teary, but not quite.
"I told you Seifer was my boyfriend right? Well I've decided to stay with
him."
"But I thought... You loved me?"
"I did, but I can't be with you Squall it wouldn't work out between us."
'After all of this she wants to leave me!? You know what fuck her!'
"Okay Rinoa if that's what you want then go ahead..."
***End Flashback***
"You remember now?" Asks Squall.
"Yes... I'm sorry Squall I didn't mean to hurt you so bad."
"It's too late Rinoa. I'm through with you so just leave me alone,
alright?"
She goes and hugs him.
"Okay Squall if that's what you want then I'll leave you alone, but don't
forget I exist okay?"
"Okay... now I need to go."
"Bye Squall!" She smiles.
He merely waves back as he walks down the hall.
