Chapter 10- Like a Dog...
By Calicat Calicat: INTO THE DOUBLE DIGITS WOO HOO! Alright, here it is, what happened to Squall, is he dead, why am I evil enough to make Maeghan evil and a spy? You'll see it's all in this chapter! RECAP!
"Ultimecia, it's her name. She wanted all of you people for a prophecy...and she said that the only other one she'd need was the one in the wheelchair. I was to find the other spy in the force and deliver all of you to her..."
"Really...interesting, come out Squall..." she called to her brother.
"What?"
"Come here..." he moved closer, and then he was pushed forward as he saw Brian being let go.
"What? Maeghan what are you doing?"
"Don't you know...the other spy is me..." She smiled as she knocked out both her brother and the failing spy.
"Where's Squall?" Rinoa asked Maeghan.
"I have no idea...I went to see where Brian was, and he wasn't there...don't worry if I know Squall he's probably just gone to walk it out and then he'll come back. Or he's taken Brian to beat the crap out of him, and then come back."
"So we leave him alone." Quistis asked
"Ya..." Maeghan smiled and sat back down to her lunch.
"Hey do you want to go for a swim?" Maeghan decided.
"Sure..."
"Great, you guys can borrow one of my swim suits if you don't have any..."
Seifer stepped out onto the patio.
"Hey, have you seen Squall?"
"Nope..." Rinoa answered.
"Why?" Maeghan had to ask.
"We were supposed to spar in the training room, but all I could see there was a trail of blood..." Seifer looked around.
Maeghan smiled inwardly, they'd never know.
Squall was groggy, he tried to open his eyes, but he couldn't
Where the hell am I? He thought.
He then realized Maeghan had knocked him out...he remembered it all.
"Shit..." he tried to open his eyes again, but he couldn't. He then felt something and realized he was in a liquid.
"Double Shit..." he thought before he could open his eyes again.
"So you're up!" A voice called.
The pool was nice, it was a cool and relaxing, yet Rinoa couldn't help but wonder what had happened to Squall.
"Rin?" Maeghan looked worried.,
"Hmm? Oh...I zoned out didn't I?" She smiled at her friend.
"Ya...something like that."
Rinoa smiled back, she sighed.
"I just think there's something wrong with all of this, Squall would be back by now."
Maeghan worried inwardly, "C'mon I want to show you something..." she decided was the only thing she could do.
Rinoa thought her friend was trying to help calm her down...she was wrong.
"Where did Maeghan go?'
"She said that her and Rinoa were going for a walk in the garden."
"Oh, well c'mon are you guys going in?"
"You first..."
"What?" Quistis was pushed in by Seifer, but she caught his arm and pulled him in with her.
"Quistis!" He whined as they surfaced.
Selphie grinned as she 'cannon-balled' in.
"BOOYAKA!" They heard as she leapt in.
"Anyway, Squall always comes back...like a dog..." Quistis noted out loud.
Seifer laughed loudly explaining a weird visual he had.
"I'm back!" Maeghan called.
"Hey...where's Rinoa?"
"I don't know, she said she was going to her room, I think she's gonna mope until Squall comes back..."
"Like a dog..." Quistis added again, making everyone beak out into laughter.
Maeghan laughed as she thought what she'd really done.
"Rinoa's not gonna be in my plan, cause if she escapes I'll be the on to shoot her dead." she thought to herself.
(A/N Evil, isn't she? You'll see why)
Rinoa woke up to see Maeghan in front of her.
"Wake up Sleeping Beauty! Ha! Really though you were better than all of us?"
Maeghan made a move to punch and caught Rinoa's stomach, knocking out her wind.
"Really you're such a bitch sometimes, always whining and nagging." Maeghan made a move to punch her again, and caught her lip, splitting it.
She moved back to a table behind her, she took a syringe and tested it.
"Alright, now let's see how you like this...it's an acid compound...Quistis made it for me actually. She said that it was for getting the smell out of dogs. It's perfect for you!" Maeghan laughed loudly.
"Maeghan...I thought you were my sister?" Rinoa started to tear.
Maeghan slapped her, "Bitch, you dare call me a sister! Ha that was such crap, I can't believe that I had to tell you that. Your mother did screw around though like the slut she was...she screwed around with Squall's dad and the child was dead. They say it broke your mother's heart. She died...from her own whoring..." Maeghan laughed again.
Rinoa clenched her fists. She wished she wasn't shackled to the table. Her lip stung and she knew there'd be a bruise on her stomach. She tried to move out of her chains, but nothing worked.
"Don't move." Maeghan now caught a piece of her hair in her fingers, and twisted it pulling it slowly, then yanking it hard.
"What does the princess not like that? Sorry, I forgot...you were nothing but a whore." Maeghan laughed again as she saw Rinoa bite her lip.
"Bleeding? Poor baby, why don't I kiss it better." Maeghan feigned compassion and Rinoa looked suspicious.
"With my fists." Maeghan punched Rinoa again and again until she had a variety of bruises built up.
"Oh...I almost forgot about that..." Maeghan turned and picked up a syringe again. She inserted it into Rinoa's wrist as Rinoa shrunk away back into the cold, unyielding metal of the table. Suddenly she felt like a fire was going through her veins. She could feel her body twitching as she barely heard Maeghan calling her a whore, slut, bitch, she-man, fucking harlot, ass licker and more. The fire then turned hot, then it felt like she was freezing.
Maeghan saw her shiver slightly, "That's the acid working on the part of your brain that controls the temperature."
"Maeghan...why?"
"Because you stole my crayons when I was five." Maeghan then left Rinoa to the rapid temperature changes and the pain.
Selphie was looking for Maeghan and she found her. "Maeghan! Look, I found some stuff out about the Ultimate, Quistis wanted to talk to you, but we're leaving to find out what had happened." "Great!" Maeghan smiled brightly. "Alright, we're leaving, coming?" "Sure." Still smiling, Selphie lead them to a luxurious jet, which they'd be using. "Boy! Get me the drink I ask for." A harsh woman sat on her 'throne' She smiled wickedly at the boy who was trembling in her presence. Her face was pale and her eyes black with red pupils...she tended to have that effect on many people. Although, usually she wouldn't smile afterwards, today was an exception. She'd just watched the sorceress's slut Rinoa was it? She was degraded on camera. Best thing was her father was just coming to propose a deal later. The woman smiled wickedly. "H-h-here you are m-m-iss." he looked at the floor. "Mistress dear," She put two fingers under his chin, pushing up her head. "You look so much like my own child," she smiled, "Pale, intelligent and innocent...which is why you are released from my cause. You may go now." She smiled at him. He looked shocked, "But miss..." "You may call me Ultimecia now that you are not in my service anymore..." She smiled at him. "Ultimecia." He smiled back. "Where are we going?" "To the Ultimate's hideout." Quistis replied. "This isn't right." Maeghan looked at the map. "What, how do you know?" Irvine looked at Maeghan suspiciously. "Because I am one..." the plane almost crashed then and there. Squall woke up and he realized he was airborne. Not actually in the air, but in a plane. He struggled, but he realized he was in a crate of some sort. Whoever did it, packed him with his gunblade. He realized that the only person who knew where he put it ...was Maeghan. "What the?" he thought. He broke out of the crate and realized instantly he was in a jet. Maeghan was sitting there innocently, and she didn't even look shocked that he was out. "Took your time." she said flatly. "You were the one who knocked me out." Squall retorted. "Pft! I always knock you out." She replied. "Anyway, should I reveal who you are to the rest of the people?" "What a spy?" Irvine added. "Ya...how did you?" "She just told us," Quistis added as she steered the jet, "Seifer and I are too." Squall almost fainted with surprise.
