Chapter 14 – Yin and Yang

By Calicat

I figured that my reviewee wanted more Seiftis, but…ya, this is for plot mostly and turns in the story. Yes, I start the chappie off with them for her!

Also, I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while…he he he

Alright…R&R!

"Seifer, honey what's wrong." Quistis affectionately looked at her boyfriend, as she was lying beside him.

The living room was quiet, but a fire had been lit and Seifer stared in it lost.

"Nothing." he muttered, looking at her through blue eyes and a blonde strand of hair falling into his eyes.

"Honey…something's bothering you." She smiled at him warmly.

"Glad to see you're warming up to the fact that I'm your boyfriend." He changed the subject, baiting her slightly.

She took the bait and ran with it, "I'm not owned by you." She said loftily.

"That's what you think." He smirked arrogantly.

"Oh shut up!" She sighed, "What will I ever do with you…"

"Quisty?" His voice changed suddenly, to more vulnerable and little boy.

"Yes…" Her gaze softened as well.

"Why are we here?" He asked slowly and softly.

She tilted her head quizzically her eyes asking his why he'd ask that.

"Is there something wrong with here?" She asked propping herself up on an elbow.

"It's just that, I feel so alone here."

"How so?"

"It's just that…I don't know." He sighed.

"Seifer honey, you don't have to be afraid when you talk to me…we shouldn't have to keep secrets." She looked down at him, then she shifted into a sitting position.

"I haven't seen Maeghan and Squall in so long, and when I last saw them…it wasn't happy."

"Why is that?" Quistis still looked down at her boyfriend who now moved so that his head was cradled in her lap.

She could see his blonde hair shift as he moved his head to break eye contact. He mumbled something.

"What was that?"

He said it louder.

"What?" Quistis was starting to get more curious and more annoyed.

"I broke up with her." It was a whisper, but Quistis caught the words.

She started to laugh.

"Maeghan? You were with Maeghan?" She laughed.

"Please don't remind me." A sigh came from the entry way to the room.

Standing at the oak door was Maeghan, in a white tank shirt and jeans.

Her hair flew down instead of its usual, meticulous bun.

"I heard you talking about me…or rather sensed it. By the way Squall won't make peace with you but I did a long time ago…Now, speaking of Squall, you haven't seen him have you…wait never mind I see where he is. Please, continue." She smiled as she glided out of the room.

"That was freaky." Seifer muttered.

"Really? Now where were we?" Quistis smiled

"I think that I was gonna kiss you to shut you up." Seifer smirked.

"Well don't let me stop you." Quistis said as Seifer raised his head from her lap, kissing her fervently.

Slowly they backed onto the floor as Quistis used her powers to close and lock the doors.

Never can be too safe she thought.

Suddenly Seifer stiffened and pulled back.

"Seify?" Quistis asked cautiously as he back away to the window and eventually freed the latch to open the balcony doors. He stepped into the night air.

"I feel something wrong with the air, can you sense it?"

Quistis looked out from the balcony and spotted a clump of stars, then something rang in her ears, like a calling of something familiar. It felt dangerous yet thrilling.

"You sense it too?" she asked softly.

"No, but something is wrong, the wind blows away from the house and there is no moon." Seifer pointed to the dark skies.

"The prophecy…" Quistis grabbed a crinkled sheet of paper from her pocket.

"Yes?"

"The dark night with empty skies, the queen will rise and the lion and the stranger bleed for lives. The yin and yang will be born…" Quistis read from her paper.

"Yin and Yang?" Seifer questioned, "Isn't that the symbol which is really cool in black and white?"

"Don't be stupid…Seifer it represents light and dark, day and night…life and death."

"Oh…" Seifer said as Quistis started to go inside.

"What?"

He tossed something at her and then plopped onto the couch.

Quistis knew what it was already and smiled into the brisk night air.

Then she followed him in to the warmth of the room.

In another part of the mansion Maeghan sipped a cup of chamomile tea as she watched tv. She had a blanket securely wrapped around her, but then she realized as she blew to cool off the tea, that Remus had left her side.

"Remy?" He was staring at the stars.

"Something's coming, I don't know what but it's coming quickly."

"I know."

"What?"

"It's the night I was talking to you about something big happening. There isn't going to be a new moon for a long time and I can tell that the part of the prophecy will happen tonight." She sighed and took a sip of her tea.

Remus looked pensively into the distance.

"Someone's in the garden."

"It's Squall and Rinoa, but I know what they're doing so I'm blocking off their connections right now."

"What are they…" Remus let the sentence hang before his face contorted in a slight disgust.

"Yes…" Maeghan sighed and took another sigh, "Chamomile is supposed to calm the nerves, take a sip." She offered the cup but he shook his head.

He stiffened suddenly.

"I feel something or someone their using the same powers that I use and their coming through the barriers." Remus said quietly.

Suddenly he shoved Maeghan inside, she didn't even expect it as time seemed to slow.

The dark night with empty skies

Her teacup fell onto the floor and broke as tea spread out over the balcony but she was locked in the room.

The queen will rise

Maeghan could see Rinoa being shoved into an alcove and then she saw two large objects flying at the mansion…it seemed like it was in slow motion.

And the lion and the stranger bleed for lives

Maeghan saw the missiles hit both her brother and her boyfriend. She saw them die.

The yin and yang will be born.

I'm leaving it at that, the last statement will be justified later though! Thx for reviewing everyone!

I'll update again soon!
