There were only two soldiers to fight, and it was clear that it would be an easy fight for Team B. It was obvious the Galbadians would not be able to back up their words.
"Seifer told us to kick your asses if we saw you!" one of the soldiers shouted.
"Is that so?" Irvine asked sarcastically, "I'd like to see you try!"
Those were the last words spoken before battle commenced, with Irvine, Selphie and Quistis as the victors. The soldiers both lay flat on their backs, twitching in pain.
"Don't they have anyone stronger?" Selphie asked, "I want a challenge!"
"We should keep going," Irvine said, "The quicker we get the job done, the quicker we can get back."
Quistis and Selphie followed Irvine deeper into the small city.
Squall's team had found a quicker route through the city and were now coming closer to the centre.
A heavy armour of soldiers were clustered around a hotel, as if guarding the area. It was likely that Seifer was in the building. Squall and the others walked towards the soldier in red, who seemed to be the leader.
"What do you want?" the soldier asked Squall rudely.
"We want to talk to Seifer." Rinoa said.
"Talk? You can't." the other soldiers in blue said together.
"We can and we will!" Zell semi-shouted, "It's been arranged. He said he'd talk with us."
"That's not like Seifer." Red Man said.
"I DON'T CARE!" Zell shouted in the guard's face, "Just let us in!"
"The HELL we will!" Red Man said, reaching for his gun. As he did this, Zell bared his fists and Squall and Rinoa prepared themselves for battle. Zell grinned to himself, having a feeling that it would be an easy contest.
Quistis led the way as Irvine and Selphie followed. It wasn't that long before they stumbled upon trouble.
"Who's that?" Irvine said, pointing to a person of about nineteen crouching on the floor, "It looks like he's in pain. We'd better check it out." Irvine finished, as they walked towards the crouching man.
"Are you alright?" Selphie asked the man, crouching down to his level. She could not see his face, but she could see the rest of him. He was wearing black jeans with a silver buckled belt. On his feet he wore black boots with a slight heel on them. He also wore a white shirt. Selphie noticed that he held a very long and shining sword. She also noticed his blonde hair…
"There's something wrong with him…" Selphie said to the others, standing up. She turned to face Irvine and Quistis, "Y'know, it's weird, I think I've seen him before."
"It took you long enough." The man said. His voice was painfully familiar.
"What do you mean?" Quistis asked.
"I thought you'd have recognised me by now. We've all known each other for so very long…" he said, a smile creeping across his face.
A stunned silence swept across Selphie, Irvine and Quistis. They all knew that it was Seifer.
