Epilogue: My Big Fat Square-Enix Wedding
1 year later
It had been almost a year and a half since the attacks. The people had worked hard to get the city and their lives back to normal. It was a beautiful spring day in Square City. The temperature was just right. It was warm as a spring day should be. The SeeD's Garden returned to its spot on the outskirts of the city and now it looked as magnificent as it had always looked.
In the quad of the Garden a huge amount of people gathered. Over the past year many of them had become close and become friends through other mutual friends. The ladies were wearing their nicest dresses and the gentlemen dressed in suits and tuxedoes. They sat in chairs on both sides of a long white cloth that went straight down the middle between them. In front of the chairs was a small stage and several of Aeris' most gorgeous white flowers surrounded it.
"Oh I get so choked up at weddings!" said Rikku as she wiped a tear from her eyes.
"Rikku the wedding hasn't even started yet…" said Riku who sat to her right. Riku reached in his navy blue suit pocket, pulled out a handkerchief and gave it to Rikku.
"I know but…everything is just so beautiful…" said Rikku as she cried a little and wiped her tears.
"Is she always this sensitive?" Nida asked Paine.
"She cries when she watches that cereal commercial…you know the one where the Moomba wants some of the kid's cereal and the kids always say "Silly Moomba Krix are for kids!" said Paine.
"Really?" asked Nida.
"Those kids are so mean! Why won't they just let the Moomba have some of their cereal?" yelled Rikku who then began crying some more and wiping her tears.
Sora and Kairi sat in front of them.
"Is it about the Moomba again?" asked Sora turning around.
"Yeah…" said Riku.
"This is such a pretty day for a wedding and all the decorations are so nice"said Kairi.
"Yeah, Squall and Rinoa couldn't have picked a prettier day" said Sora.
(Next Scene)
"Ok Squall looks like he's about to pass out" said Irvine.
"Squall will you please get it together man" said Cloud.
In a room in the Garden Squall waited for the wedding to begin. He was dressed in his SeeD uniform and so were all other SeeDs that day. Squall's Groomsmen were Laguna, Irvine, and Zell. Also back there was Cloud and Zack.
"Wow Squall….you're sweating a lot" said Zell handing Squall a small towel to wipe his face.
Squall wiped a bit of sweat off his forehead.
"Thank's Zell" said Squall.
"Just try to breath and relax Squall. Everything is going to be fine" said Laguna patting him on the back.
"Yeah Squall just try to relax man" said Zack.
Zidane and Tidus then walked through the door.
"Hey guys what's happening?" asked Tidus.
"Hey…whoa Squall, try perking up a bit" said Zidane as he looked at Squall who still looked pretty nervous.
"Maybe he would be more relaxed right now if the bachelor party we threw him didn't go so horribly wrong…" said Irvine staring at Zidane.
"Yeah Zidane…what was up with the strippers? Weren't you in charge of that?" asked Cloud.
"Yeah seriously man what was up with the strippers?" asked Zell.
"Man, are you guys still on about that? That's all I could get on such short notice!" yelled Zidane.
(Flashback)
Several of the guys rented a large hotel room for Squall's bachelor party the night before. They sat around on sofas and chairs laughing and having a good time. Zidane then rushed in the room.
"Hey everybody the strippers are here!" yelled Zidane.
All the guys sat up in their chairs excited and ready for the strippers to come in. Zidane opened the door and three Hypello strippers walked in.
"Well…this is different…" said Squall.
The strippers were female Hypello but no one other than another Hypello could actually tell the difference between a male and a female one. They looked exactly alike.
"Hellosh boysss whosh ish ready to paaaarrrtaaaay?" said one of the strippers as she wiggled her hips and showed off a G-string.
Locke got up and held his hand over his mouth as if he was about to throw up. He ran off to the bathroom.
"Is this how a bachelor party is supposed to go….if so I think I'm going to be sick…" said Red XIII.
"No Red XIII. The strippers are usually not…this amphibious…" said Sion.
"Now dontsh be shyyy!" said another Hypello stripper that wore a cowboy hat.
"Who wantsh a lap dansh?" asked another stripper.
"NO ONE!" yelled all the guys in unision.
"Zidane she keeps trying to grind on me!" yelled Vivi as he ran away from one of the strippers.
"I wish I had brought my gunblade so I could stab my eyes out!" said Seifer.
"Seriously ya know?" said Raijin.
Volt banged on the bathroom door. Volt, Crono, and Kou stood outside. Locke had locked himself in the bathroom.
"Locke, are you ok in there?" asked Volt.
"Yeah man, are you alright?" asked Kou.
"That's the sickest thing I've –BLAARGH-"
They could hear Locke throwing up in the toilet. Edgar and Sabin walked up.
"Hey Locke come on out buddy. I'll buy you a lap dance!" joked Edgar.
-BLAARGH-
"That was just mean…" said Sabin.
The Hypello strippers continued to chase people around trying to give lap dances.
"Whoa hey! Let go!" said Tidus. He ran away as one tried to grab him.
Squall sat in his chair and laughed at the whole thing as he watched.
"Lap dansh?" said the Hypello in a G-String. She had backed Red XIII, Sora, and Riku into a corner.
"They're really aggressive" said Sora.
"I know" said Riku.
Red XIII began growling at her.
(End Flashback)
Squall started laughing as they went over the event.
"Hey looks like he's calming down a bit" said Tidus.
"Hey do you think the girl's bachelorette party went as bad as ours?" asked Zell.
"I don't know. None of them will tell us…" said Cloud.
(Next Scene)
Wow that stripper last night was really hot….too bad it had to end so soon" said Aeris.
In another room in the Garden Rinoa waited for the wedding to begin with some friends and her Bridesmaids. Her Bridesmaids were Ellone, Selphie, and Quistis. The three of them wore matching blue dresses and Rinoa had an elegant white wedding dress with a veil. Also in the back room were Tifa, Aeris, and Garnet.
"I know I've never seen muscles like that!" laughed Selphie.
"So no one told the boys how our party went did they?" asked Tifa.
"I didn't say anything" said Ellone.
"Me neither" said Quistis.
"Good. You're right we should keep them guessing" laughed Rinoa.
Yuna and Celes then walked into the room.
"Hey everyone!" smiled Yuna.
"Hello just checking up on the bride to be" said Celes.
Rinoa walked over to them and hugged them.
"You look so beautiful" said Yuna smiling and looking at Rinoa's dress.
"Indeed" smiled Celes.
"I feel beautiful" said Rinoa.
"So what were you all giggling about just now?" asked Yuna.
"Oh we were talking about the party last night. Did you tell the guys anything?" asked Garnet.
Yuna and Celes shook their heads "no".
"Good. Zidane told me that the boy's party didn't go so well….Hypello strippers were all they could get…" said Garnet.
All the ladies burst out laughing.
"Well I reserved "The Masked Guardian" weeks in advance" said Selphie.
"-sigh- I've never seen such chiseled abs…don't tell Vincent I said that" laughed Quistis.
"Well it was fun while it lasted…" said Celes.
(Flashback)
Several of the ladies rented a large hotel room for Rinoa's bachelorette party. They sat around in sofas and chairs and talked and laughed. Selphie then came through the door.
"Ladies I present to you…The Masked Guardian!" yelled Selphie.
The ladies cheered and a very muscular man wearing nothing but boots, a speedo, a cape, and a mask walked in. He put his hands on his hips and stood up straight like a superhero.
"So…who wants to be…guarded?" said the Masked Guardian.
The ladies began to scream and yell.
"Oh baby guard me!" yelled Celes.
"He can guard my body anyday!...oh I don't believe I said that…" said Beatrix.
"Don't worry about it. Just unwind and let loose!" said Echidna.
"Where is the bride to be?" asked the Masked Guardian.
Everyone pointed at Rinoa.
The Masked Guardian threw off his cape and walked toward Rinoa's chair. Selphie pressed play on a boombox and some music started playing.
"Young lady…your body…is…under my…protection!" said the Masked Guardian.
The Masked Guardian began wiggling his waist in a sexy manner as he danced in front of Rinoa. Rinoa began laughing and screaming wildly. Lucca, Marle, and Yuffie began stuffing gil into his speedo. Which brings up another point of what does gil actually look like? Let's just say it's like a dollar bill and call it a day.
"This is so bad!" yelled Lucca.
"Oh but it feels so good!" yelled Yuffie.
The Masked Guardian turned around and began grinding on Rinoa as he gave her a lap dance. He then got up and started dancing around. The ladies started dancing around him and stuffing money in his Speedo.
"Here's a little something" said Quistis as she stuffed some money in there.
The Masked Guardian began dancing in the middle of Yuna, Rikku, Ellone, and Paine.
"I'm sorry but I just have to do this" said Terra as she touched The Masked Guardian's large pectoral muscles. He let her and even guided her hand down his chest.
Terra giggled like a young school girl. Kairi laughed really hard about that. As the Masked Guardian let Terra touch him. Aeris and Tifa stuffed even more money in his Speedo.
"Aeris I dare you…" said Tifa.
"I'll do it…" said Aeris.
"Do it…" said Tifa.
Aeris spanked The Masked Guardian on the butt. He bent over and let her spank him again. Dona then walked into the hotel room because the door was left ajar. She watched The Masked Guardian very closely. She then walked over to the boom box and stopped the music.
"SEXY!" yelled Fujin as the music stopped and everyone heard her.
They all gave Fujin a blank stare. Fujin blushed and went and took a seat.
"Hey who turned off the music? I was just getting started!" said the Masked Guardian.
Dona pushed her way through the crowd of women and when she got to the Masked Guardian she yanked his mask off…
"My my my…" said Dona.
"Dona!" yelled Barthello now revealed to be the Masked Guardian.
"Barthello how dare you!" said Dona.
"Dona please!" yelled Barthello.
"Barthello we're leaving" said Dona.
Dona stormed out of the room and Barthello ran after her.
"Dona I needed the money! Dona wait!" yelled Barthello.
The ladies were now left in the room…stripperless.
"…He's coming back right?" asked Kairi
(End Flashback)
All the ladies laughed when recounting the story. Soon the other ladies said their farewells and returned to their seats and only Rinoa, Quistis, Selphie and Ellone were left there.
(Next Scene)
Back outside the ceremony was about to begin. Everyone had returned to their seats finally. On the left side of the stage Squall, Laguna, Irvine, and Zell stood. Laguna had a nice black tux while Squall, Irvine, and Zell wore their SeeD uniforms. On the far left of the stage was a tiny organ. Mog floated up to it and prepared to play. The one who would reside over the ceremony walked up to the stage.
"Good afternoon" said Maechen in his calm soothing voice.
"Good afternoon" said the congregation.
"I must say I was honored when I was asked to reside over this most joyous celebration of love. I had met with the young man and the young woman in the park before and I knew that they shared a strong love even then. Their love reminds me…of a story…" said Maechen.
Everyone in the congregation sighed almost simultaneously.
"…but that is another story…for another day. I must ask you all to stand as our ceremony is about to begin" said Maechen.
The entire congregation stood. With a cue from Maechen Mog began playing soft music on the organ. Everyone turned to see the procession down the aisle. The procession started with Marlene as the flower girl. She wore a pretty pink dress with a pink ribbon in her hair. She picked several handfuls of red flower petals and tossed them gently on the ground as she walked down the aisle. Barret held a camera and snapped several pictures of her.
"That's my girl" said Barret with a bright smile on his face as he took more pictures.
"She's so cute" said Shera.
"Yes she looks so wonderful in that dress" said Lulu
"Cute as a button ya?" said Wakka.
Lulu still held Vidina even though he and grown a lot in the past year.
"We do get to eat after this right? I'm starving" said Cid Highwind.
Shera nudged him with her elbow.
Behind Marlene came Prince Puck. He was the ring bearer and had the rings on a small pillow. Freya and Fratley were there and they snapped a few pictures of him.
"He's looking nice" said Fratley.
"He's a sweet child…when he's not causing mischief" said Freya.
Terra watched the procession and suddenly Red came and stood beside her.
"You're here! You're late!" said Terra.
Terra straightened Red's bow tie.
"Hey, you know a hero's work is never done…" whispered Red as he smiled.
Terra smiled and they went on watching. Next came the Bridesmaids. Ellone, Selphie and Quistis walked in a straight line down the aisle. Quistis glanced at Vincent who was watching her. She winked at him and he smiled back at her.
"Wow this is so amazing. Everything is so beautiful" said Azelia.
She stood next to Red XIII and Bugenhagen, Kaz, Roban, Seren and Amir were there as well.
"Ho ho ho indeed it is" chuckled Bugenhagen as he floated there.
Azelia brushed against Red XIII like some domestic cats usually do and gently licked his face. It's safe to say this is the equivalent of a small peck on the cheek. After the Bridesmaids came by Rinoa came and it seemed like time stopped. Her flowing dress was gently caught in the breeze. Squall watched her as she walked toward him and he always remember that it seemed like she was walking in slow motion. Next to her was an older dark haired man. He held her hand and escorted her down the aisle.
"Is that her father?" asked Locke.
"I don't know" said Edgar.
In front of them were Headmaster Cid and Edea.
"That's her father, General Caroway of Galbadia" said Headmaster Cid to them.
"Wow she looks great…" said Seifer.
Seifer and Squall put aside their differences and although they weren't the best of friends they tolerated each other. Seifer genuinely felt happy for them both.
"She's like…an angel…ya know?" said Raijin.
"ANGELIC" said Fujin.
The strange thing was as the glare of the sun hit Rinoa many people that day said that it looked like wings were on Rinoa's back…but perhaps it was just the sun playing tricks on them….
"I think I'm going to cry" said Leblanc as she waved a fan in her front of her face.
She was invited because she was of course Rinoa's boss at the Boutique.
"…times like this I really miss my Noojie Woojie…" said Leblanc.
"Where has Nooj been anyway?" asked Ormi.
"I don't know" said Logos.
Rinoa was finally at the front of the congregation. Her father moved to the left and Squall now stood beside her. Squall and Rinoa looked at each other and smiled and the congregation sat back down.
"Dearly beloved…today is a most wondrous celebration. Today this man and this woman declare their love to all here. Is there anyone that believes that these two should not be wed?" asked Maechen.
No one said anything so Maechen continued.
"The rings…"
Puck brought the rings to Rinoa and Squall. They each picked up a ring.
"Do you…Rinoa take Squall to be your husband?" asked Maechen.
"…I do…" smiled Rinoa.
"Do you….Squall take Rinoa to be your wife?" asked Maechen.
As Squall stood there he thought he heard a faint voice in his head.
"I'm so proud…little lion…"
"I do…" said Squall smiling
Squall and Rinoa accepted the rings.
"It is my honor to prounounce you husband and wife…you may kiss the bride…" said Maechen.
Squall gently lifted up Rinoa's veil. The two looked at each other for a moment and smiled then slowly embraced each other in a passionate kiss. The crowd went wild with cheers yells, Tidus whistling, Red XIII howling, Moogles "kupoing", and applause. The wedding was now over and everyone prepared to go to the reception party afterwards.
Vincent walked up to Quistis after the wedding.
"Hey" said Vincent.
"Hey you" smiled Quistis.
"A wonderful day for a wedding don't you think?" asked Vincent.
"Indeed…Vincent have you heard from Shadow?" asked Quistis.
"No…but I hope wherever he his…he's happy" said Vincent.
(Next Scene)
Far away in a small village call Thamasa a dark haired man carrying a duffel bag walked into the village. In front of him an old man named Strago watched a little girl named Relm play with a large black dog named Interceptor. Relm chased Interceptor around and laughed and played. Strago looked up at the man who stood there. Relm and Interceptor stopped.
-woof woof-
Interceptor barked and ran at the man immediately recognizing him. The man bent over and petted Interceptor on his head. Relm walked slowly toward the man. He stood up and looked down at her. A smile crept across both of their faces. Strago watched them and a big smile went across his face as well.
(Next Scene a few hours later in Square City)
A few hours later everyone at the wedding had put on their more casual clothes and went to the SeeD ballroom for the reception. There was a lot of laughter and conversation and the music was provided by Tifa's 7th Heaven's very own DJ Hype the worlds first Hypello DJ.
"If yoush ready to paaarrttaaay let me hear yoush shay Osh Kay!" yelled DJ Hype from the turntables.
"OSH KAY!" yelled the crowd.
The crowd was really pumped up and this proves that Hypello's make excellent DJ's but not so excellent strippers. In the corner Selphie and Irvine stood. Irvine held a video camera in his hands.
"Can you get it to work? Is it broken? " asked Selphie.
"Oh no I think I have it…there it's working now"
(Everything will now be described through the camera's view)
Irvine lifted up the camera and pointed it toward Selphie.
"Are you recording now?" asked Selphie with a bright smile.
"Yes I've got you" said Irvine.
"Irvine you got it working! You're so sweet!" Selphie moved to the side of the camera to kiss Irvine. The view of the camera went down to the ground and only Irvine and Selphie's voices could be heard.
"Maybe I'll break your camera on purpose next time if this is the reward I get…" said Irvine.
"You silly…let me hold your hat" said Selphie.
The camera then lifted back up and Selphie now stood there wearing Irvine's cowboy hat.
"Hey, Squall and Rinoa me and Irvine are putting together this video of the party since you too are…preoccupied at the moment" said Selphie.
"Yep" said Irvine as he zoomed in on Selphie.
"Ok Irvine let's go over here"
Selphie walked over to a table full of gourmet food and behind it Quina stood.
"Here is the great chef Quina. He…she…it has prepared a great meal for all of us to enjoy!" said Selphie as she pointed to the food.
Irvine zoomed in on the food and then on Quina. Laguna walked up and got a plate of food. Quina and Laguna waved and Selphie walked over to another table.
"I'm going to catch you!" yelled Marlene.
"No you won't!" laughed Puck as Marlene chased after him.
"Whoa!" yelled Selphie as they ran right past her.
"As you can see even the young ones are enjoying themselves" said Selphie.
Wakka, Lulu, Vidina, Auron, Barret, Cid Highwind, Shera, and Cid (Rikku's Father) all sat at the table Selphie went to next.
"…and over here we have some of our more "mature" crowd here at the reception. Hey you all smile for the camera this is for Squall and Rinoa.
Irvine zoomed in on the group at the table.
"When you say "mature" what you really mean is old right?" asked Cid Highwind.
"No mister Highwind she didn't mean…" said Irvine.
"Heh heh I'm just kidding with ya" said Cid Highwind eating another piece of pie.
"Hi Squall hi Rinoa congratulations. I'm so happy for you" said Shera.
"Marlene, stop that running! You're going to trip and fall!" yelled Barret to Marlene who was off camera.
Barret looked at the camera.
"Oh yeah congratulations" said Barret.
"You two make a great couple I wish you the best" said Lulu.
Vidina giggled and smiled at the camera.
"Hey it won't be to long before you have little ones running around ya?" said Wakka as he pointed to Vidina.
"Bli…blit…blitz! Blitz, Blitz, Blitz!" shouted Vidina.
"He said Blitz! My baby boy said Blitz! My son is going to be a Blitzer!" shouted Wakka.
"Wakka! You taught him to say that didn't you!" scolded Lulu.
"Blitz, blitz, blitz, blitz!" yelled Vidina.
Irvine moved the camera to the right and focused on Auron.
"Squall and Rinoa you know that I wish you well in the future. Stand strong in good times and during the rough times" said Auron.
"Yeah and Squall you better hope that you don't have a daughter! Here look at this…" Cid pointed in the background and Irvine shifted the camera to where he was pointing.
Rikku was in the background dancing.
"…I love her to death but she's driving me nuts. Look at her! I swear people wear more clothes at the beach and is that what you the kids today call dancing? All that grinding and mashing up on each other?" ranted Cid.
"…and we're moving right along…" said Selphie as she adjusted the cowbay hat and started walking away.
"Alright" said Irvine as he followed her with the camera.
All of a sudden a group of SeeD girls caught Irvine's eye and he zoomed the camera in on them. They waved, smiled and giggled.
"Hey Irvine" they said in unison and giggled.
"Hey ladies you're lookin…"
"Pay attention!" yelled Selphie as she interrupted him and jumped in front of the camera.
She walked over to Quistis who stood with Vincent, Headmaster Cid, and Headmistress Edea. Quistis wore here hair down and showed how truly long it was.
"…and this is why I'm so jealous of you! My hair will never be this long! Your hair looks gorgeous Quistis" said Selphie.
Irvine zoomed in on Quistis' face then zoomed out.
"Thank you Selphie" said Quistis.
"Hey Vincent what's up?" asked Irvine as he moved the camera toward Vincent.
"Not much Irvine" said Vincent.
"I have just offered Vincent a job as our new firearms instructor" said Headmaster Cid.
"A person with his expertise will be invaluable to SeeD" said Edea.
"That's great!" said Selphie.
"Hey that's wonderful. I've been meaning to get a few pointers from you. Now I'll have you as an instructor…just don't get mad and transform into a demon if I mess up" joked Irvine.
They all laughed and Selphie moved on.
"It looks like everything is good here at your reception Squall and Rinoa" said Selphie.
"EAT EAT EAT EAT EAT!" a group of people was chanting.
"Let's see what's going on shall we?"
"Sure" said Irvine.
Irvine followed Selphie with the camera to a large table.
"EAT EAT EAT" yelled the group.
Zell sat next to Gau and each of them had a plate of hotdogs in front of them. They both were stuffing hotdog after hotdog in their mouths. Gathered around them were Yuffie, Volt, Echidna, Dominique, Sion, Kou, Brother, Cyan, Sora, Kairi, Celes, Sabin and Locke.
"Well here we have Zell making a jackass of himself as usual" laughed Selphie.
"Hey I heard that!" yelled Zell as hot dog chunks flew out of his mouth.
"…Ewww this is disgusting" said Celes as she watched.
"There's no way he can eat more than Gau!" said Locke.
"Indeed Sir Locke. Sir Gau's appetite is unmatched!" said Cyan.
"GO GO GO" yelled Brother.
"One of them is going to throw up all their food" said Sabin.
Gau and Zell continued to stuff hot dogs in their mouths. Zell stopped to look at Gau and Gau was eating frantically like a wild beast.
"C'mon Zell keep it up!" yelled Yuffie.
"Look at all that food flying out of Zell's mouth!" laughed Sion.
Irvine zoomed in on Zell as he ate as fast as he could.
"This is the grossest thing I've ever seen…" said Kairi.
"I probably would have said the same thing…until I went to Squall's bachelor party…" said Sora.
"Seriously…" said Kou.
"Whoa…is Zell's face supposed to be that red?" asked Echidna.
"I don't think so" said Volt.
"That can't be good" said Dominique.
Irvine zoomed on Zell's face and it was really red. Zell then coughed and blew out all the chunks of hotdogs all over the table.
"I guess Gau is the winner!" said Locke.
Yuffie patted Zell on the back.
"…you're still my hot dog champion…hey wait that didn't sound right…" said Yuffie.
"Ok I think we've been grossed out enough at this table" said Selphie walking away.
Irvine followed her as usual.
"Here are our Cosmo Canyon friends!" said Selphie.
Bugenhagen floated there and next to him were Red XIII and Azelia.
"Ho ho ho what do we have here?" asked Bugenhagen.
"We're making a video for Squall and Rinoa…since they're missing the party and all…"said Irvine
"I see" chuckled Bugenhagen.
"Hey Red XIII and Azelia when is the big day?" asked Selphie.
Irvine zoomed in on Azelia's stomach and it seemed larger.
"Another three months left" said Azelia.
"Think it'll be a girl or a boy?" asked Selphie.
"I don't know" said Red XIII.
"Hey just call us if you ever need a babysitter" said Irvine.
Selphie moved on to a table where Cloud, Tifa, Aeris, and Zack sat.
"…and here we have Cloud, Tifa, Aeris, and Zack. You four always look like you're on a double date" laughed Irvine.
The four of them laughed.
"We're making a video for Squall and Rinoa" said Selphie.
"Oh hey Squall congratulations buddy! Rinoa you looked great today!" said Cloud as he put his arm around Tifa.
"I'm so happy for you both. I wish you all the best!" smiled Tifa as she cuddle closer to Cloud.
"Rinoa and Squall you're the perfect couple! I hope your life together is full of happiness" said Aeris.
Zack had his arm around her.
"Squall and Rinoa you two are great! I'm really happy for both of you" said Zack.
"Now if you'll excuse us…" said Aeris.
Aeris and Zack began to kiss and so did Cloud and Tifa.
"Well lets mosey on over here and leave these love birds alone" said Selphie as she moved along.
At the next table Yuna, Tidus, Paine and Nida sat.
"Hey there guys" said Irvine.
"Hey hey what's up?" asked Tidus.
"We're just making a video for the bride and groom" said Selphie.
"Hey Yuna how's the teaching job at the Summoner Academy going?" asked Irvine.
"I love it! Oh and I talked to my father and he wanted me to congratulate Squall and Rinoa for him. Also Kimahri wanted to wish you well but he has lots to do on Mt. Gagazet. Congratulations Squall and Rinoa" said Yuna.
"Hey Tidus are you looking forward to the new blitz season?" asked Irvine.
"Am I? Oh man I can't wait especially since we didn't get to finish the season last year! Oh and my father wanted to wish you two well. I know you two will be happy" said Tidus.
"Hey Paine and Nida do you have anything to say to the Bride and Groom?" asked Selphie.
"Everything today was wonderful. I know you'll both enjoy the rest of your lives together. Congratulations" said Paine.
"Hey Squall Hey Rinoa. You're both great friends of mine and I'm really happy for the both of you" said Nida.
"Alright let's continue on" said Selphie as she walked away again.
Shinra hid behind a table.
"Shinra what are you doing back there?" asked Selphie.
Irvine zoomed in on Shinra who was crouching behind one of the tables.
"Go away you'll give away my position!" said Shinra.
"What are you talking about?" asked Irvine.
"I'm hiding from Eiko…I think she has a crush on me and…"
"There you are!" yelled Eiko as she ran up.
"Oh no I've been found!" yelled Shinra as he ran away.
"Don't you run away from me Shinra!" yelled Eiko as she ran after him.
"Aww isn't that sweet" said Selphie.
Rikku and Riku then walked up to the camera.
"Hey it's the Rikku's!" yelled Irvine as he zoomed in on them.
"Hey Selph!" said Rikku giving Selphie a small hug.
"Hey you two are you having fun?" asked Selphie.
"Oh yes this party is crazy! I can't believe you two are missing it!" yelled Riku into the camera.
"That's why we're filming it so Squall and Rinoa can look at it later" said Selphie.
"All right then" said Riku.
"Well we're off to the dance floor" said Rikku.
"Bye" said Irvine.
Riku and Rikku walked away and Selphie and Irvine continued on.
The camera became a little fuzzy as Irvine zoomed in on Selphie.
"Selphie the camera started messing up again…" said Irvine.
"Aww hopefully it would break again"
Seifer, Fujin, and Raijin walked up. Fujin and Raijin were holding Seifer up. He looked a little…drunk.
"What's the matter with Seifer?" asked Selphie.
"Seifer's had a little too much to drink ya know?" said Raijin.
"INTOXICATED" said Fujin.
"What…I'm not…drunk…" said Seifer in a hazy voice.
"That kid is wasted" said Amarant as he walked by.
"I'm not drunk I'm perfectly alright….hey I went up to that summoner chick over there and said…I said…Hey baby…you must be a summoner…because I have a magical beast rising…IN MY PANTS! HA HA HA" laughed Seifer in a drunken stupor.
Selphie just gave him a blank stare.
"…IN MY PANTS!" laughed Seifer again.
"…repeating the punchline isn't going to make me laugh" said Selphie.
"C'mon Seifer let's go sit down ya know?" said Raijin as they carried him off.
"…IN MY PANTS! HA HAH HA" laughed Seifer as they walked away from the camera.
Selphie then walked over to a long table where. Zidane, Garnet, Freya, Fratley, Steiner, Beatrix, Crono, and Marle sat.
"Hey you all are you enjoying yourselves?" asked Selphie.
"Yes but I'm wondering where the Bride and Groom are?" asked Garnet.
"They are busy…" said Irvine.
"Do you want to say a few words to them? We're going to give them this tape" said Selphie.
"Hey Squall sorry about the bachelor party but hey congratulations. Rinoa I hope you and Squall have a great life" said Zidane.
"You two looked wonderful today! I absolutely loved the wedding! Keep in touch ok?" said Garnet.
Irvine shifted the camera over to Freya, Fratley, and Steiner and Beatrix.
"I wish you well Rinoa and Squall" said Fratley.
"As do I and if I could find Prince Puck I'm sure he would wish you well too" laughed Freya.
"Rinoa you really looked like an angel from heaven today in that dress. Everything was so beautiful. Squall you looked so handsome too" said Beatrix.
"I'm happy that I got invited to your wedding. I shall always remember this beautiful day. I wish you all good luck in the future…now if you'll excuse me…I must take my lady dancing…" said Steiner as he stood up.
Steiner held Beatrix's hand and they walked off.
"Hey Squall Hey Rinoa. I'm just taking a break from this great reception. The music is great the food is fantastic. The wedding was so beautiful" said Marle.
Crono nodded his head.
"Crono says that he wishes you the best" said Marle.
Crono nodded his head again.
"Oh he says you both looked nice and he's glad he got to come to your wedding…and the cake is really good…and he really likes the music.." said Marle.
"How do you know what he's saying?" asked Irvine.
"I just do…" smiled Marle.
Marle then kissed Crono.
Selphie and Irvine walked over to a smaller table where Buddy and Lucca sat and talked.
"…so we connected the vector plug into the engine and got the airship running again…" said Buddy.
"Wow I would have never thought to do that. I would have tried attaching a refractor sphere to the engine then gone from there" said Lucca.
"That's actually a good technique but you see with the vector plug you have just as much efficiency without having to spring for the expensive sphere" said Buddy.
"That's interesting. You know, it is nice meeting someone with a love for machines and science and stuff like I do" said Lucca as she smiled at Buddy.
"Same here" said Buddy.
"Let's leave them alone…it looks like they are hitting it off let's not disturb them" said Selphie.
"Ok then" said Irvine as the two of them walked along.
Slow dancing to the music were Edgar and Ellone and Terra and Red.
"It's the smooth talking King Edgar of Figaro!" said Irvine.
Edgar and Ellone smiled at the camera.
Irvine shifted the camera to Terra and Red who also smiled at the camera.
"…and now the reason why we're video taping this…" said Selphie as she pointed to her left.
Irvine turned the camera toward a balcony. Squall and Rinoa stood on the balcony in the moonlight. They kissed passionately.
"Look at em…too busy making out to enjoy their own party…" said Irvine.
The camera then broke again and everything went fuzzy.
"Aww man…" said Irvine.
(Next Scene)
Words of the Orb in italics
..there were new stories…some were the same...
Seymour Guado stood on the balcony of a penthouse apartment.
…there was love, hate, peace, and war…
A sinister grin swept across his face as he looked out on the moonlit city.
...there is good here…but where good exists…evil is there…to balance it…

Well people I just want to thank you so much for sticking with me for the 28 chapters of Squaresoft City. I wanted to make a whole page thanking you but now with Review responses I can reply to you personally. If you left a signed review you've probably heard from me but chances are you'll hear from me again. Right now I bet you're wondering about the ending…well…the Orb said that where good exists there is always an evil presence ready and waiting. Everyone is happy right now and there is closure tothis story but to say the struggle is over would be a lie. The future looks to bring more battles of good and evil…but that my friends is…another story…for another day…and that…as they say…is that…
