Chapter 21
Squall lay in bed resting next to Rinoa. He opened his eyes and gazed out the window, just as sunlight broke through the sky he staggered out of bed. He went outside to meet Seifer who was already waiting for him.
"Why can't you be normal and sleep in till noon?" Squall asked as he rubbed his eyes. Seifer grinned.
"Well maybe it's cause you won't be as good in the morning and I'll stomp you." Seifer gestured. They both drew there weapons, Squall leaped over Seifer's head as the orange haired man lunged at him.
"Try some better foot work." Squall implied. Seifer watched as Squall demonstrated to him the best ways to dodge attacks.
"Ya think that Rueben character is really that tough?" Seifer asked as they continued clashing swords.
"Well, he is good. I could take him no problem, but you it will be a good match." Squall retorted. After a few hours of dodging and attacking Squall asked Seifer to attack with all his power. Seifer nodded, and the two charged each other. Just as they met Squall went around behind Seifer and struck him in the back with his fist. Seifer gasped for air and turned around with an angry face.
"You cheated." He complained.
"How did I cheat?" Squall asked.
"You and I was going to see who was stronger and we was going to take it head on." Seifer explained.
"You really don't get it do you? When you fight, it doesn't matter what rules you go by, or how good you look. All that matters is that you aren't the one with the blade sticking through your chest." Squall noted.
"Hmmmm...I guess I do see your point." Seifer replied.
"Thanks to you I know that, if it wouldn't have been for that gayass fireball a year ago..." Squall got cut off.
"Hey that wasn't a cheat, I was just bored because you sucked so bad." Seifer gloated.
"Maybe I did suck maybe I didn't. But now I'm better than you and that's all that matters." Squall laughed.
"Just you wait, while your wasting all that time with Rinoa, I'll be getting better." Seifer snapped.
"Oh well, at least I'll have a sex life. Even chicken wuss got a girl before you." Squall joked.
"Well chicken wuss got lucky, his competition was a cowboy anyways. Just wait I'll be with Quistis in no time." Seifer insured.
"Yeah she may feel sorry for you after Rueben annihilates you, then she will go out with you." Squall gestured.
"Whatever man, hey I got to get going, tomorrow is my fight. Bring everybody I want to show how good I really am." Seifer requested.
"Alright, we'll be there to see you get killed." Squall retorted.
"Whatever..." Seifer groaned as he disappeared from site. Squall turned to go to town.
"I could use a drink." Squall mumbled to himself. As he entered the bar he saw Biggs and Wedge at the counter.
"Peace!" Biggs yelled. Squall smirked and sat down.
"Give me something hard!" Squall ordered the bartender. As soon as he was served his liquor Biggs started to talk to him.
"I know I shouldn't be telling you this, but Galbadia is having some problems. Make sure Balamb is prepared for anything..."
"Biggs!!! You traitor!" Wedge scorned.
"Calm down Wedge, I ain't a traitor. I'm done with Galbadia, I ain't taken orders anymore." Biggs stated as he tore his badge off and started to leave.
"Biggs, what's Galbadia planning?" Squall asked. Biggs turned around with a pale face.
"In one week Balamb will be gone."
"How!?" They don't have that kind of power, Balamb's army would own Galbadia." Squall exclaimed.
"Galbadia's army ain't what you should be afraid of. Their experiments will take over within in days, it will multiply so much that I doubt Galbadia will even be able to control it. That's all I'm going to say, farewell and good luck." Biggs turned and left the bar. Squall sat deeply contemplating on what they could possibly be up too. He decided he would go straight to Edea and tell her to prepare the Balamb military for the worst. He rented a car and rushed to her office, as he entered he seen Auron explaining biological weaponry.
"Edea I have word that this Garden will be destroyed within the week." Squall gasped.
"What!?" Edea almost went berserk.
"So they have biological experiments on there way here to attack." Auron noted.
"Biological experiments?" Squall questioned.
"I heard two soldiers discussing about their army's experiment. I heard it killed 200 men because it was hungry one day."
"So there is only one of these creatures?" Edea asked.
"Well from what Auron says that's what it sounds like, but Biggs told me that when it was done multiplying everything would be out of control." Squall explained.
"Whatever it is we must prepare this Garden for combat." Edea noted. "Squall if you would, I wish you and two others to go to Galbadia and snoop around." Edea ordered.
"But you will need me here when we are attacked." Squall stated.
"No she won't I shall remain here, me, Tidus, Yuna and the others will take care of everything." Auron assured.
"I'm taking Sephiroth and Zell with me then." Squall implied as he turned to leave the office. He ran over to Zell and Selphie's dorm. He knocked on the door.
"Be there in a minute." Zell answered. He opened the door wearing only his polar bear boxers. "Uh hi, as you can see I'm kinda busy." He moved and Squall saw Selphie laying with the covers over her.
"Well that's too bad, cause you're coming to Galbadia with me." Squall snapped.
"Why?" Zell asked.
"I'll tell you later, hurry up get dressed. I'm going to get Sephiroth too." Squall retorted as Zell rushed and they went off to find Sephiroth. Finally they spotted him, with Aeris as usual. They were sitting down at the cafeteria talking and eating hotdogs. Zell ran over to Sephiroth and attempted to take his hotdog.
"I'll take that." Zell gestured as he grabbed it. Sephiroth took firm hold of his arm.
"Let go of the weiner." Sephiroth warned. Squall, Zell, and Aeris cracked up.
"Sephiroth, I need to ask a favor of you." Squall said as he quit laughing.
"Well, what do you want?" Sephiroth asked.
"Galbadia plans to attack this place, and I need you and Zell to come with me to investigate there plans." Squall explained.
"And I care why?" Sephiroth asked.
"If you don't everybody here will most likely be killed and yeah." Squall answered.
"Not possible, no army is going to take me out." Sephiroth implied. Squall went into deep detail and informed Zell and Sephiroth of everything that he knew.
"Amazing, using fiends for war, it would be a good idea except fiends have a mind of their own." Sephiroth said.
"Exactly, and we need to go to Galbadia and see what they are planning, and possibly stop them." Squall explained.
"Sounds good, but what about this place, we are some of the strongest fighters here." Zell stated.
"Don't worry about this place right now, they have Auron and that Tidus guy to take care of them." Squall assured.
"Whatever... I still see no point in me going." Sephiroth mumbled.
"Just admit it you're scared." Zell joked.
"I ain't scared of nothing." Sephiroth retorted.
"Prove it then." Squall exclaimed. Sephiroth stood up.
"Fine I guess I'll go since you titties need my help." Sephiroth declared. Squall glanced at his watch.
"Meet me in the parking lot in one hour that should give you guys long enough to get whatever it is that you want." Squall said as he walked off to his own dorm. He went pass Rinoa getting his ammo and anything else that would be useful.
"Where you going?" Rinoa asked as she watched him go through his weapons. He told her about the mission and she seemed worried about him. "Well don't get killed." She said.
"Me get killed? Who you think I am?" Squall joked as he kissed her on the cheek and ran out the door. He sat in the parking lot waiting for the hour to go by, finally Sephiroth entered and sat down by him.
"So the child is late." Sephiroth groaned. Later they heard a very loud thump, they stood up and saw that Zell had run into somebody's corvette with his T-Board.
He got off the ground and stared at the cracked window and dented door. The guy inside looked pissed and got out of his car. "Look what you did to my car you moron!" The big guy said as he took a tire iron out from under his seat.
"This will be amusing." Whispered Sephiroth as he and Squall watched.
"I'm going to beat you for this!" The dude threatened.
"Hey, I don't think you want to be doing that." Zell warned as he made a fist. They other guy bashed Zell in the head with the tire iron putting a bend the shape of Zell's head in it. Zell held out his hand and flicked him in the chest. The guy fell backwards onto the ground.
"I'm pressing charges." The guy said as he climbed back in his car and started to drive off.
"Hey knucklehead, over here!" Squall yelled. Zell looked up and ran over to Squall's car.
"That was an interesting fight." Sephiroth implied as he got in the passenger seat.
"Yeah I totally kicked that guy's ass." Zell bragged.
"He was a wuss, Irvine could have kicked his ass." Squall said as he started the car. Zell hopped into the back seat and they headed for the train station.
Just wait this is going to get very interesting, as another major plot occurs. Keep reading...
