-review responses-

ihavenoname: Wow, I think I pissed this guy off. Don't blame me! Blame the PS2! It pulled me towards it! PLAY ME! PLAY ME!

DMage96: Do you know how good that feels! Makes me want to write more! I'm trying to jog my memory on everything that happened in FFVIII so I can have Keitaro screw it up in his usual way. If I miss something you can always fill me in right? The pay is low but hey, you'll be helping this story along.

Vivi239: Yeah I know it could have been worse, I could have brought knights of the round from FFVII into this. Thanks for the complement though, cries tears of joy If only I could make some money off of this somehow I'd be so happy.

Dimitri Plabato: Now listen 'boss' and I DO use that term lightly. The last time you posted something before this week was in December! How can you post one chapter then start cutting paychecks huh? I WAN'T MY MONEY DAMNIT! DEVRY DOESN'T PAY FOR ITSELF!

shinji the good sharer: another bahamut fan. I just wanted Squall to try and win the fight, not to kill off Motoko. I know I can't do that, I've received hate email saying "if you do anything to Motoko you will be dragged out into the middle of the nearest four way intersection and shot, multiple times, then left there to be ran over by cars. And after what's left we'll feed it to a pack of rabid dogs or something." I sleep with one eye open now.

Linda: Uhh….i'm not trying to be funny or anything but what was that first part about? Yeah….lost much, can't be found, send a search party.

If I have forgotten anyone I would like to say thanks for your reviews and please keep reading this story! Seriously keep reading! Sit back down and read! Uhh….i'll bring food, just don't leave me alone in the dark! I'm afraid of the dark!

Disclaimer: Come on! It's a good trade! The keys to my house and my car for the rights of love hina! Come on, the car is a BMW. Ok so I panted BMW in yellow letters on the side but it still looks good right. You like yellow on brown right?

Chapter four: First day of class

"So have you seen him anywhere," Quitsis asked with much concern in her voice. She was in the headmaster's office talking to an unusually busy Headmaster Cid.

"I haven't seen hide nor hair of him since you escorted him to his test in the fire cavern yesterday, Cid responded, "you're welcome to use the P.A. system if you like." Apparently, Quitsis was looking for a certain gunblade wielder. He went missing yesterday and that had her extremely worried.

"No that's ok," Quitsis answered. "If I haven't found him by now then he's probably not in the garden."

"Well I'll keep my eye open for him," Cid said. "Now if it's alright that I change the subject, how's our new recruit doing?"

"New recruit," Quitsis asked questionably, "I thought the recruiting season was over?"

"Well yes it is but you can agree that we can make an exception for the person that saved your life right," Cid asked.

"Person that saved my li…you mean the janitor," Quitsis asked, "you put him in basic training?"

"Why not," Cid shrugged then said casually, "if he saves a life then he must have some capable qualities right? Besides, we haven't seen him in action yet, you might be pleasantly surprised."

"If you say so," Quitsis answered hesitantly.

"You don't like this guy huh," Cid said with an all-knowing tone in his voice.

"What makes you say that," Quitsis answered trying to hide what was on her mind.

"You don't have to pretend we me instructor," Cid said, "I'll be here when you are ready to talk."

"Thank you," Quitsis responded, "by the way, I think I will use the intercom to page Squall."

"Go ahead," Cid said pointing towards something resembling a switchboard in the corner of his office, "its right over there. And don't forget that everyone is waiting for you in the parking garage, you still have to accompany the See-D trainees to Dollet you know."

"Right," Quitsis answered.

"I go through a space time continuum warp hole to another universe and STILL HAVE TO STUDY LIKE IM TRYING FOR TOKYO U," Keitaro yelled and let his head fall face first on the desk. "Still," I should go through with this," he said trying to convince himself, "It's the only thing open to me right now. Also I will be paid if I become a See-D, whatever that is."

"It sounds like you're enjoying yourself here," Keitaro's inner conscience said. "Is it just me, or have you totally forgotten about hinita sou?"

'No of course not," Keitaro yelled mentally, "it's just that I'm pretty much stuck here unless I find a mad scientist slash engineer or something.'

"Weak man," Keitaro's conscience said. "And you've been working on finding one right?"

'Well,' Keitaro answered hesitantly.

"You've forgotten about Naru," the conscience stated, "I understand, I mean look at the girls here! These put Kitsune to shame. Yeow!"

Keitaro started beating his head with his fists, "bad thoughts! Bad thoughts!"

"And this is suppose to be the new recruit," someone said from the classroom door. Keitaro looked up to find Seifer running his mouth off as the head of the disciplinary committee.

"He doesn't look like a tough guy to me ya know," Raijin said flexing the little muscle he had. Even though Keitaro thought this guy was nothing but hot air, the spear on his back said differently.

"I know," Seifer continued, "you save a life and get an automatic approval? Cid's giving these things out like contest prizes!"

"He don't look like a contest winner," Raijin said supporting Seifer's insults, "not the contests I've been in ya know?"

"What do you think about this guy Fujin," Seifer asked looking at her, she merely shook her head. "But seriously," Seifer continued, "he could win one title….best in show!" Raijin started laughing then gave off a look that said 'I don't get it.'

"It's the title they give to dogs," Seifer said irritated. "Just forget it, we got to find Leonheart, he owes me a rematch. With that said the disciplinary committee left. Keitaro just sat there through the whole thing. Seifer and the others saw Keitaro physically look at them, but they had no idea that he had checked out mentally.

"Are you saying you forgot about this," Keitaro's inner conscience asked playing movies of some of the better moments Keitaro and Naru had together.

'No! I didn't say that,' Keitaro mentally shouted.

"Do you want her to turn out like this," Keitaro's conscience asked while playing a film of Naru standing on the hinita sou roof, staring into a sunset alone. Her eyes we're puffy and red so Keitaro could easily tell she was crying. "Do you want her to cry her heart out because of loneliness everyday?"

"Aw come on," Keitaro screamed, "you and me both know that Naru would not do that over anyone!" The sudden outburst caused people in the hallway to stare at him.

"I'm not interrupting anything am I," one of people from outside asked. The person moved inside the room from the middle of the crowd to reveal herself as the same brown haired girl with the yellow dress that he saw in the hallway yesterday.

"Ahh don't worry about it," Keitaro said with his trademark grin and scratching the back of his head, "that's just my mind telling me I'm studying too much. It might be right, I've been in this same room looking over things since early this morning."

"So how early am I for the next class," the girl asked taking a seat next to Keitaro.

"Actually, a class just let out five minutes ago," Keitaro said pointing at the clock.

"Oh no! Not again," she shouted, "that's the third class I missed this week." She pulled a page out of Keitaro's usual routines and let her head fall against the desk.

"Three classes," Keitaro asked, "what happened? Were you busy or something?"

"Not really," the girl responded, "it's just that I'm new here. I just transferred from Trabia garden and I still don't know my way around. But enough about that, do you think Instructor Flanagan will let me make up for today's lesson?"

"Instructor Flanagan," Keitaro said confused, "this is Instructor Trepe's room."

"No way," the girl yelled, she then got up from her seat to check the plaque on the inside of the door, "I just left her class in second per…." She cut herself off right there, "this IS the wrong room."

'This girl is as ditzy as Mutsumi,' Keitaro thought to himself.

"Can you point me which way Mr. Flanagan's room is," the girl asked.

"Actually, I'm new here too so I have no idea where anything is either," Keitaro confessed laughing in his usual manor.

"Really," the girl asked, "well us newbies have to stick together right? I'm Selphie," she said holding out her hand.

"Keitaro Urishima," Keitaro said as he shook her hand and his head bowed slightly.

"Well Keitaro," Selphie started, "how about we take a walk so we'll learn the layout plan together? I'm sure two heads would be better than one right?"

"S-sure, ok" Keitaro agreed closing the computer panel he was studying at. 'Maybe things are starting to look up for me,' Keitaro thought to himself. If only things were that easy. Before Keitaro could get out the door he tripped on a lump in the floor. He panicked and spun around so that he would hit back first instead of doing a face plant. At one point Keitaro's foot tripped Selphie, causing her to fall forward. When the room stopped spinning Keitaro tried to sit up, only to find Selphie's legs straddled over his hips and his face logged in between her chest. Selphie rolled off of Keitaro and stared at him

Keitaro's eyes twitched for a quick second and his nosed started to bleed. "I'm sorry I'm sorry," he pleaded when his begging instincts kicked in.

Selphie just kept staring at him with a slight frown, "………"

"I didn't mean too," Keitaro pleaded, "it was an accident! Please don't hit me!"

Selphie giggled to herself, "that was some accident. Anyway, lets try to learn our way around the garden now."

Keitaro's right eye twitched violently before he almost passed out on the floor, "r-right."

The two started their way towards the first floor via the elevator but before they could get far Headmaster Cid's voiced rang through the garden on the P.A. system, "all participants of the mission at Dollet please assemble at the front gate."

"Oh god the mission," Selphie yelled, "Keitaro I have to go but we'll meet up later ok," with that said she ran off.

"Well she sure is perky," Keitaro mused to himself, "a cross between Su and Mutsumi."

"A perfect match," Keitaro's inner voice probed.

"Would you stop," Keitaro asked letting the irritation in his voice be heard.

"You're talking to yourself again," Keitaro's conscience sang back.

'Well if you would stop popping into my head at random moments then maybe I wouldn't look like one of the crazy old guys that talks to themselves at the park,' Keitaro thought.

'Hey, I'm just up here to see some of the girls you keep your eye on,' Keitaro's conscience countered.

'And another thing,' Keitaro started, 'why would you literally TORTURE me about Naru being alone, but turn around and try to make me think about girls here?"

'I'm just here to make sure you make the right decision about these things,' Keitaro's inner voice explained, 'I am your conscience after all. Then again who gives a fats rats ass on what I have to say, I've been telling you to give up on Naru for months! Then again, I'm only your conscience so what would I know?'

'The RIGHT decision,' Keitaro asked. 'What do you mean by the right decision?'

'You'll see, just keep your eyes open,' Keitaro's conscience said.

Before Keitaro could think about the subject anymore a girl dressed in a SeeD uniform holding a clipboard approached him, "excuse me," she asked, "are you Keitaro Urishima."

"Uhh, yes," Keitaro answered.

"Oh good I finally found you," the girl said handing him a sheet of paper to from the clipboard, "take this and report to the training hall for combat practice."

"C-c-combat…..p-practice," Keitaro choked out.

"Yes," the girl said, "combat practice. All students must be able to defend themselves and others if they want to become a See-D."

"What exactly is a See-D," Keitaro asked, regretting his question as soon as it escaped from his mouth.

"You don't know," the girl asked, "how could you not know?"

"I was just a janitor here, I never really found out what this school teaches," Keitaro answered. He was grateful that the janitor excuse would work while he was here.

"Well," the girl thought out loud, "the short explanation would be that we are a group of mercenaries. We fight for whoever hire's us, and when we're finished with missions we come back here to regroup and await our next orders. All while training See-D hopefuls, such as yourself. That's enough on that for now, you've got to get to the training hall."
