Deling City's Military Camp SeeDs Quarters
Zell: Wow this place is awesome!
Nida: Now that you're our mate, you're going to share the same quarters with us Alphas!
Zell: Oh I see cool.
Nida: (Noticing the "trio" ) here they go again, what is it this time?
Zell: What the? (Stepping backwards)
Raijin and Irvine: (singing, though out of tune) Forrrrr he's a jolly-good fellow, for he's a jolly-good fellow, for he's a jolly-good fellowwwwwwwwwww………..
Irvine: Err what's next with that line?
Seifer: (singing) That nobody can't deny, that nobody can't deny! (shouting) I'M GOING TO BE THE COMMANDER!!!!!!! YEAHHHHH!!!
Nida: What's gotten into you Almasy?
Raijin: Oopss correction! Commander Almasy! Ya know!
Irvine: Not to mention that he's also the leader of Alpha team!
Zell and Nida: Commander?
Seifer: Yes you're now talking to Commander Seifer Almasy har har har!
Nida: Please tell me you're just kidding Seifer.
Raijin: Since when did he tell jokes ya know.
Irvine: Nida, you know our dear General got his hopes for this fellow. No doubt General Caraway called him a while ago, saying that he's going to be the next commander.
Zell: Oh that's bad news
Seifer: Ha ha ha ha ha! YEAHHHHH!!!! Like it or not I'll be the Commander!
Nida: No it can't be! Wait! You're not telling everything, are you?
Irvine: Just accept the fact guys. His skills surpass everyone here including our ex-commander, Vincent Valentinesday. So there's no doubt about him being our commander now.
Seifer: C'mon pals let's celebrate! We're going out and it's on me! (smiling from ear to ear)
Irvine and Raijin: Yey!!!!!!!
Zell: (talking to Nida) Oh no I think we're now in big trouble. (sighs)
Nida: Not …..yet.
Zell: Huh? What do you mean by "not yet"?
Nida: I'm going to talk to Xu. She knows everything.
Zell: Xu? Who is she?
Nida: Caraway's Secretary and my future ……GF (scratches his head in embarrassment)
Zell: He he he. I see.

Selphie: Hey what about his contact number?
Rinoa: Ekkkkkkk!!! Yes you're so brilliant Sephie! Wait, let me browse this a bit. Hmmm…contact number…. What? Ohh no!
Selphie: What's wrong Rin?
Rinoa: This is Mr. Cid's number. Arghh I cannot call this one.
Selphie: That means he's staying at his Garden?
Rinoa: Yeah probably.
Selphie: That's great Rin!
Rinoa: Great?
Selphie: That means… Mr. Cid knows this guy very well. Why not ask Mr. Cid about him!
Rinoa: WOWWWWW WHOOO HOO!! Yeah!
Selphie: Since Mr. Cid is at your mansion right now, why not talk to him about that paper.
Rinoa: Good suggestion my best friend!

Nida: ……………
Xu: The General arranged this "Duel" between Seifer and this super-cutey guy. Whoever wins the match will be considered the Commander and the new leader of the Alpha team.
Nida: Ahhh so that means….Seifer is NOT YET our Commander and leader? Please tell me I'm right Xu.
