Part 3:
They walked out silently and split up.
Selphie and Irvine went to the Quad, Zell and Quistis to the Library and Squall to the dorms, where he hoped Rinoa would be.
As Squall made his way towards the dorms, his mind remained on her.
'I can't leave her…I can't…what am I gonna do...but her father won't permit her to come…I'm gonna have to leave her…leave her…I can't help it…it's for her own safety…maybe it's better that way…How am I gonna tell her?…she's not gonna accept this… 'He thought worriedly.
When he finally reached the dorms, still looking down, he entered Rinoa's room, but she wasn't there. Maybe she had gone to the cafeteria or to the quad with some of her friends. Squall was tired, he had a lot on his mind and had to think of a way to tell her what was happening, without being too harsh…he entered his room, shut the door bleakly and to his surprise, Rinoa was lying down on his bed. She was sleeping peacefully on his bed. She was all curled up on his bed, holding her necklace tightly in one hand. When Squall was called to the bridge she decided she'd wait for him in the dorms. She had a feeling something wasn't normal, she had a feeling Squall was going to be taken away from her again, but tried her best to think positively without anticipating. She didn't want to go anywhere, she just wanted Squall to come as quick as possible. She got so bored and anxious waiting, she decided to go and see Squall's room. She felt closer to him there, next to his possessions. She sat on his bed and waited, looking at his ring that had been carefully attached to her necklace. She felt safe and peaceful there.
Squall was taking very long to come back, at least it felt like so. The minutes felt like hours. Rinoa couldn't help feeling dozy on his bed (it smelled just like him!). She ended up falling asleep on his comfortable bed, involved in his wonderful smell.
'…Rinoa…' he whispered in surprise trying not to wake her up.
Squall approached her, sat on the floor next to the bed and stroked her head as he looked lovingly at her. His eyes shinned when he saw her. Squall loved her peaceful pale, heart-shaped face. She was even more beautiful when she was asleep, with her mouth slightly open he could see her pearly white teeth, she looked so cute. Squall couldn't help himself, stretched his neck out slowly, reached his face towards hers and kissed her soft tender lips as a tear came running down his eyes, falling gently onto the bed. He whipped it away furiously, ashamed of himself.
'I'm sorry…' he whispered to Rinoa as he laid down his head next to her. The moment he laid his head down, his eyelids started to feel quite heavy and his whole body started to get numb.
Squall fell asleep next to her.
Zell had followed Quistis to the Library, as an excuse to see Moha. He knew she spent most of her time there. He had a special feeling he'd find her there and if he found her, he would tell her what was on his mind and probably ask her to be his girlfriend. He spent the whole time picturing himself kissing her, it would bring a cute little smile to his face… When they reached the Library, Zell looked out at a 360º angle for her. Then he reached the other end of the Library and his heart froze…
There she was…so glorious…so happy…so pretty…just that… she wasn't alone…there was a tall, brunette and handsome guy right next to her. She was sitting on his lap. She giggled a lot and was whispering things in his ear teasingly. In response the guy just kissed her passionately, obviously they were…together...they had something…together…Zell's little heart broke as he felt a fast pain strike through his chest and then whole lot of painful energy flowing through his fists…it was a mix of fury and pain…
'…THE HELL!' thought Zell as he stood on the same spot, staring at them with an heart broken look upon his tattooed face.
Zell took a few steps back, continued gazing at that painful picture, then realised he had to get away…somewhere…anywhere else but there…Zell walked out furiously, making a huge gush of wind behind him, rushing brutally in a desperate move to get out there, past other students that would try to walk in the facility, making them stumble and punched the closest pillar he could find on his way out, making a terrible noise. This made everyone come out to see what had happened. Only little stones were left out of the pillar, for the moment he had punched it, the whole pillar had cracked up into a million stones and collapsed onto the ground a few seconds later…
'DAMMIT! YOU SON OF A BITCH!' he yelled as his face turned red, sweaty and furious…
Zell walked very fast not knowing where to go, then started running, he head to the Training Centre.
Poor monsters, they had a tough time with him. Zell had killed almost all the monsters in the training centre. He fought a T-Rexaur and punched the living daylights out of him, the poor animal didn't even get the chance to fight back. Zell had cast several Auras on himself on purpose, just to attack with his Limit Breaks and take out all his fury on the creatures. He yelled loudly as he punched and kicked the creatures, you could here it all the way out of the training centre, making the people that past by look all the time…
Zell kept on swearing at the creatures, yelling impatiently and furiously at them…
After so much punching and kicking Zell did get tired and decided to go for a walk and try and put his mind on something else…
Meanwhile, Quistis head back to her room, where she sat on her bed cleaning her Chain-whip, while thoughts clouded her head. She was thinking about Squall as usual…How would she ever forget about her feelings for him, if he was always so close to her? How? She made herself this question countless times a day. She though of travelling far away, where she could start a new life from fresh, without past shadows hovering upon her all the time…where she could live in the light and never in the shadow again…Thinking of all that brought happiness to her heart, it made her smile, imagining herself being free, carefree and not having to worry of finding bad memories wherever she went…but…something was holding her back…she couldn't leave…she felt she had something here, she'd never find anywhere else…what it was she never knew…she just felt that for now she had to stay, also because she had been called out on a mission and all…
To this, Quistis couldn't help feeling lost, lonely and sad. She didn't know what she had to.
Sometimes she would just wish Rinoa didn't exist. Things would probably be easier, she wouldn't be with Squall all the time and Squall would have most probably liked her. But, she felt selfish to think that way…everyone had the right to be happy, and if Rinoa was Squall's, there was nothing she could do… Since that day, when she danced with Squall, Quistis knew things would never be same. Squall had preferred to dance with a stranger then talk to her. He had been enchanted by her…She still tried to balance things out by calling him to the secret place, but it was useless…
But Quistis couldn't think of Rinoa as her rival. Rinoa had no idea that Quistis had feelings for Squall, at least she hoped not. She didn't think that after what she told the whole group in Trabia Garden, they would think she still liked Squall. She really hoped they had forgotten about it. The thought of having to live with this truth, brought sore tears to her eyes…
She was showing weakness and this made her very mad, that's why she was being so cocky with everyone, it was the only way to camouflage her feelings for Squall and her depression.
'From now on, I'm going to stop thinking about Squall… yes because I'm sure he never thinks about me… I'm going to move on. I'll find someone one day… I hope. Rinoa doesn't deserve for me to destroy their relationship. It's too precious, anyway who am I to decide if Squall should be mine or not. Squall belongs…to Rinoa. And always will…There's nothing I can do about it…nothing…' Quistis thought and looked down as little warm tears formed in her eyes.
'It's so hard…' she winced bleakly.
'I know there is someone for me…somewhere out there…I'll find him one day…and I'll forget about all this emptiness and pain…'
Quistis got up, whipped her tears away, lifted her head up high and walked out her room with a huge smile on her face. She felt much better after that talk with herself. She felt like there was hope again. She knew that she wasn't destined to be alone, and just that was a good reason to feel happy again.
'Squall?...' Rinoa said surprised as she opened her eyes and saw Squall's cute sleeping face next to her's. Squall went on sleeping.
'…I missed you…' she whispered as a smile grew across her tired face. She stroked his head and looked at him peacefully.
A few minutes later, Squall opened his eyes and caught her looking at him. He felt embarrassed.
'I'm...I'm sorry…I …saw you here and I…' but before he could finish Rinoa put her hands on his face and kissed him delicately.
'You're so cute when you're sleeping…' she told him just gazing into his eyes.
'Nothing compared to you, you're an angel…my angel…'Squall said in his shy tone of voice.
And once more their lips met in a love kiss, Squall just pulled himself up on the bed, opened his arms and accepted her softly, closing his arms around her and slowly kissed her.
'Rin…' said Squall as he pulled back from the kiss. He was looking down and a sad look invaded the 'in love' look he had before on his face.
'What's wrong, Squall?' she said very concerned as she tried to make him look in her eyes.
'I love you…' he said softly as he desperately held her hands and looked at her with a sad look on his face, as if it were the last time they were together. He was frowning as usual but he was looking in her eyes.
'Please forgive me, Rinoa…' he gasped softly as he squeezed her hands a little, still looking deeply in her eyes.
'Squall, what's going on? I'm confused… Why must I forgive you?' Rinoa asked very confused.
'I have to leave for a while…on a mission…' he said as his frown disappeared.
'Noooo! Why, Squall? Why? You can't leave me! ' she cried out as she embraced Squall tightly, trying to avoid him from leaving.
'Rin, It's just for a while, I'll be back soon, I promise…if I said I wouldn't leave…It very well means I'm not…but, I'm a SeeD, I can't just let any old jerk destroy our world, can I? I have to fight...fight for peace. You want that, right?'
'…yes…' she mumbled as tears would form in her eyes and started sobbing.
'…I'm going…' she said very determinedly as she whipped her tears away and pulled her hair out of her face.
'…Rin, it's not safe out there, you can't come…remember what your father said?'
'I don't care what my father said! I'm going with you! There's nothing you can do about it…'she spat out now crossing her arms to show authority.
'…Rinoa…you can't! Don't you see? It's too dangerous! If anything happened to you, I'd just…I just couldn't take it…I'd die…Don't you see? I don't want you with me! It's too risky…So, you're not coming, it's settled…you are staying here…even if I have to tie you up…I can't put you in danger…I'd rather kill myself…'
'…Oh...Squall… I'm sorry… I don't want to be difficult; I just can't stand being without you…I need you! How am I …I can't take it…What am I gonna do? I've just found you…I can't let you go now…! I won't take it…I'll go crazy!...' she asked regretting her spoiled attitude, trying to explain what she ment.
'No you won't…you're a Forest Owl…you're independent…you've always made it on your own…you've always been like that…and always will be…I just can't picture you going crazy…I just can't…' he smiled.
'…fine…but are you…like…going to take very long?...I have limits…' she asked panicking…
'Well, Garden is going to dispatch us in Dollet, then Deling City and then at the Jail, so when we travel from place to place, I'll be with you…It's only when they dispatch us at the Jail, we're on our own…we'll have to take the Ragnarok all the way to Win Hill and find out what's happening out there, try and restore the peace…I don't know for how long, but I'll be thinking of you all the time…I promise.'
'I won't think of anything else but you, Squall…I'm serious…' Rinoa told him as she touched his face and smiled reassuringly.
'Hey…I'm not gone yet! So don't cry…I love you…you know that, right?'
Rinoa nodded smiling trying to stop tears from forming in her eyes.
'I love you too, Squall…' she burst out thronging herself at his neck to hug him and kissed his cheek tightly.
'Rinoa…' Squall said now pulling away from her hug and holding her thin wrists and looking into her eyes.
'The Garden is heading to Dollet and I'm not sure about when we'll get there, but if I'm gone when you wake up, promise me you won't cry or do anything stupid, ok?' Squall asked caringly.
'Of course I'll cry! How can I not? I'll miss you!...' Rinoa pouted.
'I won't be there for long, it's just to equip ourselves and talk to some people… It won't take long, I'll be right back as soon as I can, I promise! Besides that, you know that it's very hard for me to leave you knowing that you are soaked in tears…' Squall complained in a playful way, to make her smile.
'…Promise?'
'I promise, but what if I slip and cry a little bit, is that ok?' Rinoa teased Squall.
'Then I'll know and I'll get mad at you…' said Squall crossing his arms and frowning.
'No you won't…there's no way you can…' Rinoa denied.
'I'll feel it…here…and if I know you are crying I'll just loose my mind…' he said seriously as he put his hand on his chest.
'It hurts when you cry…it's like being stabbed in the heart…the sorceress's knight feels double of her pain, you know that?' he told her, leaving her speechless…
'I don't want to hurt you, Squall! Never! I promise I won't cry!' she said grabbing him in a tight hug.
'Matron will help you…' Squall told her.
'How?...' she replied bleakly still hugging him.
'She's gonna teach you to use your powers, that should distract you a bit, huh?'
'That's nice. Maybe…' Rinoa replied pleased.
'Squall?' Rinoa started.
'Yeah?'
'What if you take very long and I can't take it anymore and want to see you!' she asked hoping he would have a solution for that.
'Rin, remember when you told me you couldn't find me in your dreams?'
'Of course I do…you said that if we promised to find each other at that beautiful field, you'd be waiting there for me…so if I went there I'd find you…you promised…' she said smiling at him as she remembered that day.
'I'll be with you in your dreams, Rin…I promised, right?'
'That's right…' Rinoa smiled.
'Just one thing…can you actually kiss in dreams?' she asked as she pulled away from their hug…
Squall gave a loud snort…
'Come here…'course you can…' he answered back as he pulled her towards his embrace and kissed her.
Meanwhile, in the Quad, Selphie and Irvine were skating.
'Woo-hoo! Irvy, isn't this fun?' she screamed at Irvine as she made a tiny spin and skated towards him.
'Yeah, kind of…I'm just glad you're happy, that's all that matters to me, baby…' he said as he nodded his head smiling at her cute grin. She was having so much fun; she just looked adorable when she was happy.
But before Irvine could say anything else, Selphie yanked him by his hands and started to go round and round very fast. They were spinning so fast that Irvine's cowboy hat flew of his head, making him laugh and Selphie giggle as loud as ever…
'Whoa!' Irvine yelled as she sped up, making him laugh even more out of dizziness.
'Woo-hoo!' yelled Selphie, slowing down and letting go of Irvine, making him roll away and fall on his butt.
'H-Hey! Hey! That's not fair…gimme that! That's mine…My hat! Give that to me! Selphie!' Selphie had picked up his hat, put it on and rolled away with it, making Irvine run after her, tripping and losing his balance on a few occasions…
'I'll get you, girl! Don't ever mess with the skating expert…his faster than light its self…!' he said as he sped up in her direction. Selphie was so cute with that mischievous smile on her face. Irvine sped up a little more and grabbed her waist, Selphie gave a loud squeak as she tried to escape from Irvine's hands, they ended up losing balance and both of them fell onto the grass patch. As they laid down trying to catch their breath, they looked at each other smiling, Selphie still giggling.
'Oh, Seffie my sweetheart, you just don't give up do you? Irvine said as he looked up at the cloudy sky.
'You betcha!' she said now lifting up, still grinning and approached him and started tickling him wildly, in the whole Squad the only thing you could hear was Irvine laughing out loud. As soon as Irvine escaped, crawling away from her and hiding behind a bush, as she went to get him back, she crawled through the other side of the bush. Irvine got up before she could reach the spot where he was, went around the bush and followed her behind the bush, caught her by surprise, picking her up and tickled her too. They both were going wild. Before they knew it they were rolling around on the grass. Irvine pulled her boot off and started tickling her foot; making her giggle so loud it would eco around the whole Quad. Selphie escaped and ran after Irvine who was running away with her boot.
'Oooh! So stinky!' Irvine said in a playful way, pulling a cheesy face as he skipped away backwards as she followed him.
'How dare you!' Selphie ran up to him and just jumped on him, making him loosing balance and ending up on the floor again. Selphie was sitting on top of Irvine; she grabbed her boot from him and pulled her tong out. But when she tried to get up, he pulled her down quickly by her arm, grabbed the other one that was holding the boot and pulled her closer to his face and kissed her like she had never been kissed before. She enjoyed the feeling so much that she started collaborating on the kiss too. Selphie's little heart was beating so fast because she really liked Irvine and had always urged to do that. And finally there they were, together like she always wanted. Irvine was also very nervous but didn't care; he just wanted Selphie to feel what he was feeling like doing for so long. After a very long kiss, Irvine let her go slowly to let her breathe, still holding her wrists.
'Ops!' Selphie looked worriedly at Irvine as she put one hand on her mouth, embarrassed for what had happened.
'It was an accident Seffie! You slipped… and I… c-caught you…I'm sorry!' gaggled Irvine as he waved his hands trying to explain what had happened.
'Yeah…right! You…you…you k-kissed me!' she said in a low voice so no one could hear, as a grin grew upon her face.
'Did not! Well, maybe…but …Seffie…I'm sorry! I didn't want to force you, but I don't know what got into me…and…and I… kissed you…Please forgive me! Are you mad at me?' he said nervously still lying down with Selphie on top of him, giving her a cute 'puppy look'.
'Well…I don't know…should I be?' she asked naively, giving him an awkward look.
'Oh, Seffie! I'm sorry! I should've explained myself to you…' said Irvine as he lifted up and gave her a warm hug.
'Explain? Explain what?' she asked as she put her arms around him too.
'Tell you about my feelings for you…you know?' Irvine explained as she got off him.
'Well, you know Irvy, I think…I think I also kissed you there for a moment, I mean 'cause if I didn't want to, I would've pulled away, right? At least I think so…'
'I'm confused Irvy!' she said as she put her arms around him again.
'So am I Seffie, so am I…'he confessed.
'Tell you what! Why don't we just pretend this didn't happen and not tell anyone?' suggested Irvine, regretting afterwards his suggestion.
'Maybe we should…'till we are sure about our feelings…' she said with some sadness in her voice.
'Yeah, that's just what we'll do…'till we are 100 sure…' said Irvine.
'I'm sorry for rushing things up, Seffie…' mumbled Irvine as he stood down on his knees to look at her.
'Me too…' she responded.
Irvine grabbed her once more, took his hat off her head, put it on his, embraced her and kissed her cheek.
'Here let me help ya…' said Irvine as he stood on his knees at helped her put her boot back on.
'Thanks, Irvy!' she smiled.
The day slowly faded away and the Moon was already preparing itself to substitute the fading Sun, who was melting as it vanished, leaving bright yellow and orange rays in the sky. It looked like a heavenly light show…
Irvine, Selphie, Rinoa, Zell and Squall spend the rest of the day in the Quad. While Selphie and Rinoa danced to the music coming from someone else's HI-FI, Zell would practise his punching and summersaults in the air, Irvine would lay in the grass with his hat on his face while taking a nice nap and Squall sat against a tree with his arms crossest and frowning as usual with his mind clouded, deep in thought.
After curfew, the five of them headed to the dorms.
'Goodnight pals!' said Irvine, and winked at Selphie, wich made her blush.
'Nighty-night everyone' said Selphie waving to everyone and shutting the door of her room.
'Night…' Zell said bleakly as he gave Squall a high-five, leaving Squall and Rinoa alone in the dorms.
'Goodnight, Squall' said Rinoa softly and she kissed his cheek, but before she could head to her room, Squall grabbed her arm…
'What ?' she asked.
'Err…nothing…' he said letting go of her arm a few moments later.
'Night…' he said looking down and walked into his room quickly.
Rinoa stood in the hall for a few seconds, wondering what was that he wanted to tell her, and head straight to her room, still in wonder.
Everyone had trouble in falling asleep, Zell because of the scene in the library, when he saw Moha with that guy, Irvine and Selphie, because of their spontaneous and romantic kiss (they were both very boggled up about their feelings, poor babies…), Squall also took some time, but ended up falling asleep with his mind on the next mission. Rinoa, on the other hand, as soon as she lied down on her bed was taken to dream world.
'YOU BASTARD!...I'LL KILL YOU!...' Squall yelled as he drew his gunblade and marched up to a man in a black cloak with a hood on his head, holding a dagger in his hand. He had stabbed Rinoa in her shoulder…
'AARGH!' yelled Squall as he attacked the man, with all his might and strength slicing him open. The man fell to the cold dusty ground…
'It's …p-poisoned…s-she'll die…' the man smirked as his eyes gave the last few blinks…
'Rinoa!' Squall dived for her falling to his knees and picking her head up.
'Rin, speak to me…come on!...please no! don't leave me…'
'I-I…l-lov…u…' she mumbled feebly, with no strength left in her as her eyes tried too focus on Squall.
'No…please…NOOO!' Squall felt warm tears coming down his face as his heart filled with pain and sadness…
'Squall…Squall, wake up! Squall wake up…' Quistis voice was getting louder and louder.
Squall opened his eyes quickly and found himself in his bed, breathing very fast and all sweaty, with Quistis who was bent over him, staring at him.
'Squall, it's time…' she said looking worried.
'Esthar has given the signal…Cid asked me to wake you up…we will have to beach the garden near Dollet any moment now and start our mission.' Quistis informed.
'Cid wants to speak to you…he's waiting for you on the bridge…'
'Fine…' Squall said coolly getting up, reaching his Gunblade and walked out of the dorms.
Quistis woke Zell, Selphie and Irvine, who all were in a bad mood, but were forced to get ready.
'In 30 minutes you shall abandon Garden and head strait into Dollet, the soldiers will be awaiting you at the communication tower's entrance…Feel free to equip yourselves…I've given extra amount of Gil to Quistis.' Said Cid back faced to Squall.
But it didn't take long for the Headmaster to turn around.
'Squall…please…take this…' Cid gave Squall six little shell shaped objects.
'These are Inter-communicators; they'll come in handy on this mission. You can use them to communicate with all of your comrades, including Rinoa…Xu will use them to give you orders…' he said as he patted Squall on his shoulder.
Squall kept quiet, for he did not know what to say at that moment.
'You can go now, go eat something with the rest of the SeeDs and then head to the front gate, I'll be waiting for you…I want to give you all a word before you leave…' he finished.
Headmaster Cid turned around again and Squall made his way to the elevator.
'Squall!' Cid called him once again, wanting to tell Squall something else.
'Yeah?' answered Squall at once.
'I'm glad I have you as a SeeD…it's an honour to have a Gunblade Specialist at last…you have become a great mercenary… the battles you've been trough prove that…hopefully this one you'll win as well…and make you greater than you already are…' Cid smiled winking his eye at Squall.
'It's a much greater honour to be a SeeD at Balamb Garden, Headmaster…thanks, we can only hope things go our way…' Squall said seriously making his SeeD salute and walked out.
Squall was very tired, but tried his best to hide it. The hours he slept didn't help, it made him worse…that dream was awful and frightening…secretly, deep down he knew it meant something…It didn't amaze him, he was used to these nightmares or warnings…he just wasn't used to having them with Rinoa…with her safety at stake. Squall knew this would cloud his mind for long, until he was absolutely sure Rinoa was safe…maybe when everything was over…but there was quite a long way until then. This was only the beginning. He head to the cafeteria thinking about this whole situation.
'Squall, how's it going, dude!…' said Irvine all in a good mood again, trying to cheer him up as Squall head to the table with a cup of coffee in his hand.
Squall sat down and started sipping on his mug slowly.
'I can't wait to kick some ass!' said Zell as he punched the air with his mouth full.
'Don't you ever get sick of hotdogs, Zell? You eat them all the time! Breakfast, lunch and supper! I can't even look at those…yucky old hotdogs anymore…' complained Selphie.
'I forgive ya, for ya don't know what ya sayin'…'cause you're a girl and all…girls don't understand… do they Squall? 'Zell said as he gave Squall a friendly punch on the shoulder.
'…' Squall didn't hear, he was in the clouds as usual, staring at the floor and frowning, while pictures from his nightmare invaded his mind…
'Yo Squall! Watcha thinkin' 'bout?' Zell went on trying to make Squall talk a bit.
'Nothing…' Squall said still frowning.
Zell tried to be his self, forcing a smile on his face or a joke…trying to get back to normal after having his heart broken…because, really, what he wanted to do was go to his room, curl up on his bed and sleep, but instead, punched and kicked as much as he could…it was his holy medicine. He knew soon he'd forget about that girl. She just was one more obstacle in his dream's way…That's what he wanted to think and that's how he did…it worked for him…
Quistis started giggling.
'What?' Squall hated when people laughed at him for no reason.
'It's nothing, it's just funny the way you haven't changed at all…even after…' before Quistis could finish Squall looked down and crossed his arms.
'That's none of your business…' he said, trying to avoid her from talking about Rinoa.
Squall's relationship with Rinoa was precious to him and he didn't want everyone talking about it as if it were "the subject of the moment". Squall tried to avoid conversation that involved that subject. It was something that only belonged to Rinoa and him. No one else.
'I'm sorry…' Quistis apologised still giggling amazed at his remaining 'loner's' attitude.
'Whatever…' he said dully.
Squall finished his coffee and got up.
'Head to the front gate when you're finished, I'll catch up with you later…' Squall left the table leaving his comrades silent.
'Hey Squall! Where're you going?' Selphie shouted out from the table as Squall left the Cafeteria, but Squall had too much on his mind.
Squall was heading to the dorms, where Rinoa was. There was something he had to do.
He entered Rinoa's room silently and there she was, sleeping all curled up on her bed. Squall shut the door softly, trying not to make a noise, paused his Gunblade on the floor and kneeled on the next to her bed.
'Now I can see you all the time…' he whispered at her as he opened her hand gently and placed the Inter-Communicator there.
'I'll miss you…' Squall kissed her forehead and left the room giving her a last look. She was sleeping so peacefully, she was so silent, you could only hear her breathing and crickets outside her window. You could mistake her for an angel…
When Squall reached the front gate area, Selphie ran up to him, grabbed his hand and pulled him all the way to the rest of the comrades.
'You're late, Squall!' she complained.
'I had to go and do something first…' Squall explained.
'Well you are all here, and that's what matters…' said Cid.
'Well that about covers it all…' Cid finished.
'Good Luck.'
The comrades made their way out of Garden and walked across the plains. The sun was rising; it was so beautiful it looked like something spectacular was happening in the sky, you could almost hear an orchestra playing in the background as the sun rose…Between the mountains they went and finally entered the city of Dollet.
To be continued...
