Author's note: It's my birthday today! Another short chapter, sorry :)

to Angel of pure darkness : Actually, I pretty much suck at writing action, so I'm trying to get over these action-sequences :)

to Lizzie : Yay, hang in there! :)

to Iskander : Thankies!

to Greyon Hell : I just somehow think Nida's good for Quistis, and for some reason I like to keep Xu only as her collague.

to Dream-Kingdom : Well, you already know how I felt about your review... Thanks again! :)

-Squall's POV-

The command bridge's a hazzle. Cid's yelling orders while the others are running around where there is no room to run around.

"HeadMaster!" Quistis shouts over the noise.

Cid turns to us. "Ahh, Quistis, thank Hyne. I can't seem to get this mess in order."

"What's gonna happen?"

"We're taking off."

"Taking off? How?" Zell asks.

Cid glances at him. "We're making the Garden mobile. Engines running, Nida! Canso, watch the gauges!"

"The Garden can be mobile?" Zell asks me.

I shrug. "Apparently."

"So what are we to do?" Seifer asks Quistis.

"Nida! Handle the levers!"

Quistis looks around. "Ugh.. I have no idea. Cid!"

The man turns to us, looking exhausted. "Yes?"

"We were told to come here."

"Well you can ugh..." Cid looks around. "You can... Alright! Everybody freeze! Not you, Nida."

Everybody except Nida, who's steering the Garden, freezes and turns to Cid, who's scratching the back of his head.

"Well now," he says. "Now that we're up and moving, we have to decide on the destination."

"How about Fisherman's Horizon?" some technician says.

"FH, eh?" Cid looks thoughtful. "Not a bad idea, Eco. Nida, do you know where FH is?"

The younger man shakes his head.

"Who does?"

Zell raises his hand.

"Good, Dincht, you help Nida out. The rest of us, let's go to my office."
"The Sorceress is onboard G-Garden," Cid says from behind his desk, looking at the rest of us with a serious face.

"We gonna go whack her?" Zell asks, shadow-punching.

Cid clear his throat while Seifer pokes Zell in the arm.

"Of course not, you idiot."

Zell looks like he's gonna start a fight, but then remembers that this may not be a good time and place.

"Sorry," he mumbles.

Cid nodds. "We have also heard that the current Commander there is..." Sigh. "Roos Essayah."

"Figures."

All look at Seifer.

"It's really not that complex."

All look back at Cid.

"A few SeeDs are to board G-Garden and find the Sorceress," he says.

I glance at Seifer, who's currently glancing at me. We both know we're the one's he's gonna send.

"Almasy, Dincht and Leonhart," Cid says, as predicted. "You are the best SeeDs of the year, best in many years, and so you will be going. Any questions?"

"Well yeah," Seifer says. "What do we do once we locate the Sorceress?"

"You will negotiate with her," Cid says.

Seifer snorts. "If she's out to get the whole world, she sure as hell ain't gonna waste her time negotiating with a couple of SeeDs."

"And, if she leaves you no choice, you will fight her. Is that clear?"

Seifer salutes, quite sarcastically tho. "Yes sir!"
