Flower Field
Here is Chapter 10 of my story. I want to thank everyone who reviewed my story. In this chapter, Squall and Rinoa are together and they will reunite with Seifer. Squall and Rinoa's love grows and they reunite with Seifer. Squall and Rinoa celebrate their anniversary. I made a lot of Squall and Rinoa scenes in this chapter. Squall and Rinoa are together and share many romantic moments as they get ready for an important event. Many events happen, find out how things turn out in this chapter. Thank you for all your reviews. I also want to say that some scenes in this story are taken from scenes from a T.V. show. As in, some of my Squall and Rinoa scenes are similar to some scenes from a certain show. I used some of the similar scenes and ideas and recreated them with Squall and Rinoa. Some scenes are similar to scenes from a T.V. show, but, while they are similar, I used my own content and dialouge. I just wanted to say that, to give credit to a T.V. show that I used some scenes and ideas from and recreated the scenes to fit Squall and Rinoa. At the end of the story, when all the chapters are complete, I will tell which scenes are similar to scenes from a certain T.V. show and tell which T.V. show it is and to give credit and write how I recreated them. It's a few scenes and a few ideas, most scenes are original by me, but some are similar to scenes from a T.V. show. I just had to write that out. Now, here is chapter 10.
Chapter 10
Squall smiled at Rinoa.
"We will overcome this.", Squall said. Squall walked next to Rinoa and hugged her. "Things will turn out right.", Squall said.
"I believe in you, Squall.", Rinoa said, nodding. Rinoa relaxed in Squall's embrace. Rinoa knew that a big battle was coming up, though. One of the most difficult battles they'd ever have to face. I wish things could always be great, Rinoa thought.
"We can do this, Rinoa.", Squall said. Squall kissed Rinoa.
"You make me feel better about everything.", Rinoa said.
"I know. I love it when you are glad.", Squall said. Squall held her close.
"Thank you, Squall. Without you, I don't know what I would have done or where I'd be if I hadn't met you.", Rinoa said.
"Don't even think about it.", Squall said. Squall wrapped his arms around Rinoa.
"So… what now?", Rinoa asked.
"Now we relax. In a few days, we'll go in there. The next two days we'll prepare.", Squall said.
"Are you putting this off for a reason?", Rinoa asked. It must be difficult, Rinoa thought.
"Why do you ask?", Squall questioned.
"Squall, no matter how long we put it off, we're going to have to fight his battle. I learned this lesson from you, Squall.", Rinoa said.
"I know, I know.", Squall told her. Squall touched Rinoa's cheek. "I remember saying something similar to you, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"Things will be good, Squall.", Rinoa told him.
"Yes, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"This is going to be it, huh? No turning back now.", Rinoa said.
"Yeah.", Squall told her.
"Are we going into that building?", Rinoa asked.
"Yes.", Squall said.
"Is Seifer in there?", Rinoa asked.
"Yes.", Squall replied.
"I wish we could help him.", Rinoa said.
"Seifer was my best friend.", Squall said.
"I know.", Rinoa replied.
"Rinoa is my girlfriend.", Squall said.
"Yes.", Rinoa replied, smiling.
"You are my girlfriend.", Squall said.
"We have been boyfriend and girlfriend for a few weeks.", Rinoa said.
"We've been a couple for almost a month.", Squall told her. I love Rinoa so much, Squall thought.
"We've had so many dates.", Rinoa said.
"We've shared so many kisses.", Squall continued. Great ones, Squall thought.
"I've been your girlfriend for almost a month, but it feels like we've been together for years.", Rinoa said.
"I know. I've been your boyfriend for almost a month, but my love for you is so strong and eternal, that it feels like we've been together for much longer.", Squall said.
"I know. I'm so glad we both feel that way.", Rinoa told him.
Squall kissed Rinoa gently. "Things will turn out well.", Squall said, patting Rinoa's head.
"So, out of all our dates, which was your favorite?", Rinoa asked.
"Well, our time in space was great, but so was the time by the flower field.", Squall said.
"I was so touched by your words.", Rinoa told him.
"I meant each and every word sincerely.", Squall said. Squall held Rinoa closer and brushed his lips onto the top of her head. I really did and I still do, Squall thought.
"Rinoa, you have been my girlfriend for almost a month and I think we need to have our anniversary.", Squall said.
"An anniversary of being together for one month?", Rinoa asked.
"Yes, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"Alright!", Rinoa said.
"I planned it already. Today we'll relax and tomorrow we will go on our anniversary. Today we'll relax, though.", Squall told her.
"That's good.", Rinoa said.
"You'll love it.", Squall said, grinning.
"I'm so glad to have you as my boyfriend.", Rinoa told him.
"Oh, Rinoa.", Squall said, patting her on the head.
"So, what do we do today?", Rinoa asked.
"Hmm… just chill, I guess.", Squall said. "Oh, I told you about that apartment I'm going to buy, right?", Squall asked.
"Yes, yes you did.", Rinoa said, blushing.
"When this is all over, we can concentrate on that.", Squall said. Squall gently cupped Rinoa's face in his hand and tilted her face up to meet his.
"Cool.", Rinoa said, nervously. Apartment? Does that mean we'll be living together?, Rinoa thought. She suddenly felt nervous. Squall was her boyfriend. They were very close. But living together? Already?
"Rinoa, you're blushing.", Squall said.
"No I'm, not!", Rinoa exclaimed.
"It's a bit late for breakfast, so let's have lunch.", Squall suggested.
"Okay.", Rinoa said. Squall took Rinoa's hand as they walked to the cafeteria. They took a seat across from each other.
"I'll go get the food.", Squall said, standing up. I'm nervous about the upcoming events, but for now I'll relax, Squall thought. With Rinoa, Squall thought happily. Squall carried a tray of food over to the table he shared with Rinoa. He gently placed the tray down and sat down in the seat across from hers.
"So, what will we do after this?", Rinoa asked.
"Relax around Garden. Take it easy.", Squall said lightly. Squall touched Rinoa's cheek.
"Alright.", Rinoa said. After they finished their lunch, they stood up.
"Want to go to the training center?", Squall asked.
"Sure.", Rinoa said. I need to relax, Rinoa thought. The training center would bring about new battles, though. Squall and Rinoa walked to the training center together. They entered through the doors and walked in.
"Want to fight some battles?", Squall asked.
"Okay.", Rinoa replied. They entered a few battles. As they finished, they went to the secret area.
"That gave me a real workout.", Squall said, sitting down. He brushed his hand across his head.
"Me too.", Rinoa said. She breathed heavily. "Now we need to relax.", Rinoa said.
"The battles did get our mind off some things.", Squall said. We can't run away though, Squall thought. Squall looked at Rinoa, who sat down across the room from him. Squall stood up and sat near Rinoa.
"Yeah.", Rinoa replied. Rinoa looked over at Squall. Rinoa took a nice breath. She sighed and smiled over at Squall. Rinoa looked over at him. He is so swee, Rinoa thought, looking at the caring, loving look on Squall's face.
"I have the anniversary all planned out.", Squall told her.
"Yes.", Rinoa said.
"Things are going to be great, Rinoa.", Squall told her, grinning.
"I'm really excited, Squall.", Rinoa said.
"Rin, this will be fantastic.", Squall said.
"I know.", Rinoa told him.
"Rinoa.", Squall said, smiling a sweet smile. Squall took Rinoa into his arms as he was sitting down and held her close.
"What's most important is that we are both happy.", Rinoa told him.
"Yes.", Squall said, kissing the top of her head as he wrapped his arms around her tightly. Squall brought Rinoa's lips to his and kissed her gently.
"We've been here for quite awhile, haven't we?", Rinoa asked, looking up at Squall with a smile. It feels so great, Rinoa thought.
"Yep we have.", Squall told her. "Ready to get up?", Squall asked.
"I need to rest a little longer.", Rinoa said.
"Alright.", Squall told her. That sat there happily for awhile, in each other's arms. Later, they stood up and walked back through Garden. The day passed by and Squall and Rinoa were talking with some people.
"Squall was being so sweet today.", Rinoa said.
"Squall, you are trying to be smoother then me.", Zell said.
"Well, Zell.", Squall told him.
"Zell is doing fine.", Selphie said.
"I'm glad we are all doing well.", Rinoa said.
"We sure are.", Squall told her, grinning.
"If there's anything you need, I'll get it.", Zell said.
"It's alright, Zell.", Selphie replied.
"Well, things seem to be perfect, Squall.", Rinoa said.
"It's boiling outside.", Squall commented.
"I know.", Rinoa said.
"It'll be fine eventually.", Ellone commented.
"Of course it will.", Nida said.
"I'm so glad we can all talk happily.", Rinoa said.
"Why wouldn't we, Rinoa?", Ellone asked.
"Well, it has to do with my past.", Rinoa said.
"When she was young, she wasn't that close with a lot of people and now she has me as a boyfriend.", Squall said.
"He said it perfectly.", Rinoa told them.
"It must have been tough.", Selphie said.
"I guess.", Rinoa said, looking down.
"It's good things worked out.", Ellone told her.
"Thank you.", Rinoa said.
"Ah, it's so nice to get some fresh air.", Squall commented. Squall looked at Rinoa happily.
"The day is just going by.", Rinoa said.
"I know.", Squall told her. The passed by and it was soon night.
"Thanks for dinner.", Rinoa told Squall. Squall and Rinoa had dinner in a restaurant in Balamb. It was a nice dinner and they walked back on the docks.
"It's nice out here, huh?", Squall asked.
"It's a pleasant evening.", Rinoa said. I'm glad I'm with you, Rinoa thought.
"Yeah, things are great.", Squall told her. Squall put his arm around Rinoa as they looked at the docks together. They went back to Balamb and the day ended.
Rinoa woke up the next morning. Today is a special day, Rinoa thought. Squall and Rinoa were celebrating their one month anniversary. It was around one month. Rinoa smiled. Later, she met Squall in Garden.
"Hi, Rinoa.", Squall called out. Squall spotted Rinoa and waved over to her. Rinoa walked over to Squall.
"Hey, Squall.", Rinoa replied. They walked together across Garden.
"We are going to Deling.", Squall told her.
"Okay.", Rinoa said.
"Tonight we are. Today we are going to Dollet.", Squall said.
"Sounds fun.", Rinoa told him.
"First, let's have our breakfast.", Squall said, linking his arm through Rinoa's,
"Very well then.", Rinoa said, giving Squall a grin. They walked over to the cafeteria and sat down.
"We'll have a normal breakfast.", Squall said. Squall brought her breakfast as they ate. It was a normal breakfast indeed.
"Yes.", Rinoa said. I like this, Rinoa thought. After breakfast, they headed to Deling from the Ragnorak and entered the city.
"Let's walk through town.", Squall told her.
"Sure.", Rinoa told him.
"Well, let's walk through it and then meet up in the shopping corner.", Squall told her.
"Alright.", Rinoa said, smiling. They walked to separate ends of the city. After awhile, Rinoa went to meet Squall. Rinoa smiled as she saw Squall standing. It's great being with him, Rinoa thought. She looked at him and then called over. "Hey!", she exclaimed. She watched as Squall grinned. Rinoa ran over to him.
"Let's go.", Squall said.
"Alright.", Rinoa replied, smiling. Squall and Rinoa held hands. As Squall and Rinoa walked through the shopping center of Deling, they held hands tightly. As they walked and held hands, their hands gently swung as they smiled. Rinoa saw a store and as she held Squall's hand, she took him over to the window. They went inside. It was a new store that had all sorts of things. It had lots of games and they both loved games and electronics.
"This is great.", Squall said.
"This is wonderful.", Rinoa told him. Rinoa picked up some games and looked at them. When she accidentally bumped into a stand containing potions, it was about to fall down, but Squall caught it. Squall steadied the stand as it fell toward him. Squall and Rinoa smiled as they picked the stand up. They went through the shop, looking at games and books. Rinoa gently touched Squall's shoulder and smiled. Squall grinned happily.
"This is relaxing.", Squall told her.
"Relaxing and enjoyable.", Rinoa said. Squall and Rinoa both picked up the same games and showed it to each other. They grinned as they saw they picked the same one. Squall and Rinoa saw flowers in a flower stand. They picked up the flowers and showed them to each other. They saw books. They picked up some books, games, movies and more. They showed each other time items. Then they saw some potions. They picked them up and showed them to each other. They smiled at each other, grinning. They bought some games, books and episodes of shows.
"That was great.", Squall said as Squall and Rinoa exited the shop.
"Yeah.", Rinoa replied as they walked back.
"We'll be back here tonight. Let's go to Dollet now.", Squall told her.
"Yes.", Rinoa said. They walked outside, entered the Ragnorak and Squall drove them to Dollet. As they arrived, they entered Dollet.
"Ah, it's nice here.", Rinoa said. She felt nostalgic walking through town. Rinoa's arm was linked through Squall's as they walked around Dollet happily. They looked through the shops and had a nice walk on the bridge. It was very relaxing.
"Well, it's time for lunch.", Squall said. Squall took Rinoa to a restaurant. "Here we go.", Squall said. After they ordered food, they began to talk.
"It's like a regular day.", Rinoa said.
"I know, but it still feels special.", Squall told her. "Oh, I forgot to tell you, after Deling, we head to Garden. Our dance floor awaits.", Squall said. We'll be enjoying a special night, Squall thought.
"Squall.", Rinoa said, smiling.
"Once again, we have the place to ourselves tonight.", Squall told her, grinning.
"You're so sweet.", Rinoa said.
"I know.", Squall teased.
"Hey!", Rinoa exclaimed. She laughed.
"You're very special to me, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"Thank you.", Rinoa replied. "I keep thinking of all those times we shared together. Everything we've been through. I know you told me many times that I think about the past too much, but all these memories are always around.", Rinoa said.
"Yeah.", Squall replied.
"We've had lots of great conversations about many things, but how about we talk about us. I usually get embarrassed, so we talk about other things. But… I was wondering when it was that you realized you liked me?", Rinoa asked.
"Woah, you're blushing.", Squall said.
"No!", Rinoa exclaimed.
"Yes you are.", Squall told her. "Well, I think I realized there was something going on around the time of the Sorceress Parade. Ever since then, things took off.", Squall told her.
"When you said 'Just stay close to me', that's when I really started feeling that way.", Rinoa said.
"Ah.", Squall told her.
"So much has happened these past few months.", Rinoa said. So many important things, Rinoa thought.
"So much is yet to come.", Squall told her. They looked at each other, grinning. After they had lunch, they walked around Dollet some more.
"It's getting late. Let's head to Deling.", Squall told her.
"Sure.", Rinoa said. As they arrived at Deling, the night sky was lovely.
"Let's stroll around town.", Squall told her. They walked around Deling. It was a peaceful night. Squall took Rinoa to the bridge in Deling.
"It's really nice here.", Rinoa said. I love just being like this, Rinoa thought.
"I know.", Squall told her. "I just want to talk. I planned out this anniversary. I planned it out so it'd be relaxing and nice. I just really love being with you.", Squall told her.
"I know. I got this new game.", Rinoa said.
"You love games just as much as I do.", Squall said.
"Yeah, I love gaming. We can play later, sometime. I like how we can talk and have great conversations about games and about all sorts of things. It's always great talking with you.", Rinoa told Squall.
"I know. So, remember how Nida was today?", Squall asked.
"Nida wants to be in your position.", Rinoa told him.
"I know. He seems to try so hard to get to be the head of Garden.", Squall told her.
"Cid prefers you.", Rinoa told him.
"Oh, Cid…", Squall teased.
"Squall! Don't start that again.", Rinoa said.
"Sorry, sorry.", Squall said.
"I hear Xu is doing well.", Rinoa said.
"Yeah.", Squall replied.
"Remember how Edea would act before we freed her of her power?", Rinoa asked.
"Oh yeah. I was wondering if she completely lost it. I mean, 'let's end the ceremony with a sacrifice'? What?", Squall asked.
"I almost was the sacrifice.", Rinoa reminded him.
"And who saved you?", Squall asked.
"You did.", Rinoa replied.
"You were really scared.", Squall told her.
"I know. I was so glad to see you.", Rinoa told her.
"I was so glad to see you.", Squall said. Squall walked toward Rinoa. Squall looked at her lovingly. Squall kissed Rinoa. It was a long, loving kiss.
"I'm still glad to see you.", Rinoa said, grinning up at Squall.
"Things worked out great.", Squall said. Squall hugged Rinoa tightly. Things are so great right now, Squall thought. He wished things could just stay this way.
"We have a lot of things coming up. If only things were this easy.", Rinoa said. She closed her eyes as she relaxed in Squall's arms.
"It's a little late for dinner.", Squall said. He looked at the night sky. It was very dark.
"It's never too late for dinner.", Rinoa told him.
"I guess you're right. Let's go.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa walked into the Deling city hotel.
"It's just as great as ever.", Rinoa said, taking a seat. After their meal, they walked around the city some more.
"Let's go to the top of the tower with the controls.", Squall said.
"It's dangerous.", Rinoa told him.
"Let's go.", Squall said, grinning. Squall took Rinoa's hand. They climbed up to the control room together. Squall lifted Rinoa up when he reached the top.
"I feel this energy.", Rinoa said.
"Mmm hmm.", Squall said.
"Yeah. It reminds me of the Sorceress Parade.", Rinoa told him.
"Let's make tonight a great night.", Squall said. Squall kissed Rinoa deeply. He looked into her eyes.
"It's great here.", Rinoa said.
"Remember, we have to return to Garden.", Squall told her.
"I know.", Rinoa said. Tonight is amazing, Rinoa thought.
"Let's wait here for some time.", Squall said. Later, they were ready to go.
"Let's go.", Rinoa said. As they exited the city they went back to Garden.
"Come on, we must get to the ballroom.", Squall said. As they walked to the ballroom, Squall took Rinoa's hand. They began to dance.
"This is the fourth time we've danced here.", Rinoa told her.
"I know.", Squall said as they danced. They waltzed together happily. As Squall pulled Rinoa to him, he kissed her gently. They twirled and waltzed together. As their dances ended, they sat down.
"That was so sweet. This really has been a great day.", Rinoa said.
"It's been great for me, too.", Squall told her. One of the best days, Squall thought.
"Well, I guess we should head back.", Rinoa said.
"Sorry I didn't get you a present.", Squall told her.
"It's alright. It's great just being here with you.", Rinoa said.
"I'm so special, aren't I?", Squall teased.
"Too special for me?", Rinoa asked.
"Of course not, Rinoa. Then, remember Cid. Ohh Cid.", Squall joked. He saw Rinoa laughing.
"Entertaining.", Rinoa said.
"You argue a lot, usually.", Squall joked.
"Oh, I argue? I know we got into arguments before we became boyfriend and girlfriend, but we're calm.", Rinoa said.
"You may be a bit argumentative.", Squall teased.
"What do you mean?", Rinoa asked.
"Well, before we got together, when I'd say things, you got a bit upset.", Squall teased.
"I had a right to!", Rinoa said.
"Sometimes. I was very calm, though.", Squall told her.
"What? I didn't get that angry.", Rinoa said.
"Really?", Squall asked.
"Squall, you are my boyfriend. Now you're accusing me of being argumentative. Why do you have to day things like that?", Rinoa asked. She walked outside and sat on a bench.
"What?", Squall asked, looking after Rinoa.
Rinoa sat down on the bench, outside the room. Things were so romantic, Rinoa thought. Why did Squall need to bring up that comment? Rinoa looked up and saw a bracelet. "What?", Rinoa asked.
"Sorry about what I did. I usually act mature and I wanted to brighten up the mood a bit. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. You know I love you, Rinoa. You know how special you are to me and how much I treasure you. I'm sorry if what I said hurt your feelings. We are boyfriend and girlfriend, so I should have not hurt your feelings like that.", Squall said.
"I'm sorry I overreacted.", Rinoa told him.
"It's fine.", Squall began. Squall sat down on the bench next to Rinoa. Here's a locket. I just wanted to give you a gift. Something special. I felt this locket would make you happy. I bought it thinking of you, not just to give you a gift. I love you and want you to keep it. Here it is.", Squall said, handing Rinoa the locket. Rinoa held the locket in her hands and smiled.
"Thank you.", Rinoa said. Rinoa smiled. Squall is so sweet, Rinoa thought. "Thank you so much. I love it because of the thought you put into it. You love I love you.", Rinoa said Rinoa smiled and gently lay her head on Squall's shoulder.
"Rinoa.", Squall said. They sat there for a long time. Rinoa relaxed as she gently lay her head on Squall's shoulder. This is wonderful, Rinoa thought happily. A few minutes later Squall gently ran his fingers through Rinoa's hair. Squall looked at Rinoa, tilted her head up toward his and kissed her gently. Rinoa laid her head gently on Squall's shoulder again as they relaxed.
A few minutes later, they got up and Squall walked Rinoa to her dorm room. "Good bight.", Squall said.
"Good night.", Rinoa replied grinning. She smiled as Squall left. What a perfect day, Rinoa thought smiling. Rinoa went to sleep. She woke up the next morning. Last night was so perfect, Rinoa thought. Rinoa woke up and walked around Garden.
"Where's Squall?", Rinoa asked. Rinoa walked around Garden. She smiled as she spotted Squall.
"I'm right here.", Squall said, grinning. Squall gave Rinoa a hug.
"It's so nice to see you.", Rinoa said. Rinoa looked up at Squall and grinned.
"It's great to see you.", Squall said, smiling.
"Over here.", Zell said.
"Let's see what's going on.", Squall told her. Squall and Rinoa walked over to Zell.
"Hey Rinoa.", Selphie said.
"Hey Selphie.", Rinoa replied.
"We can all talk now.", Zell said.
"So, what's up?", Squall asked.
"A lot of things. It's been a big week.", Zell said.
"A lot of things are happening.", Quistis said.
"I'm glad we can talk like this.", Rinoa said.
"Yeah.", Squall commented. Squall ran his fingers through his hair. It was great being able to relax and talk.
"Selphie, let's go upstairs.", Zell said.
"Rinoa, let's go somewhere.", Squall told Rinoa.
"Sure. I need to do something, first.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, do you need advice?", Quistis asked.
"Yeah.", Rinoa said.
"Ask away, Rinoa.", Quistis replied.
"Well, it's about me, Rinoa. You know. Squall and I have been dating for a month. Now, Squall is the first serious boyfriend I've had. Yes, I, Rinoa have only had one boyfriend, my boyfriend, Squall. Anyway, you know we've been dating for a month. Many people thought I was seeing Seifer, but Seifer and I were friends and Squall is my first boyfriend. Anyway, I know you've gone out with a couple of people and all, so I wanted to ask if you had any idea of something special I could plan for Squall?", Rinoa asked.
"You seem nervous.", Quirtis said.
"I know. You've had more experience then me, so I thought I could ask you.", Rinoa told her.
"Well, it's true I've had some experience.", Quistis told her.
"I know. So, we had our one month anniversary the other day. Is their something special I could plan for him?", Rinoa asked.
"Do what you feel is right.", Quistis said.
"Alright. I guess I'll try something I think Squall will like.", Rinoa said.
"Hey, Rinoa, what's going on?", Squall asked.
"Hi, Squall.", Rinoa said. Rinoa followed Squall down the hallways.
"What's up?", Squall asked.
"Nothing. I have a question. Is there something special you'd like me to plan or something?", Rinoa asked.
"What?", Squall questioned as they walked down the hallways.
"I mean, you planned our whole anniversary. I want to plan something special for you.", Rinoa said.
"You don't have to.", Squall told her.
"I bought you a movie and a book.", Rinoa said, handing Squall a package.
"Thanks, Rinoa.", Squall said, grinning.
"I really liked picking them out for you. Picking out gifts for you makes me think of you and I feel all warm.", Rinoa said. She smiled at Squall. I always love being with you, Rinoa thought.
"I feel the same when I pick out gifts for you, Rinoa.", Squall said as he held the package.
"Really?", Rinoa asked. This is great, Rinoa thought.
"Rin, this package was wrapped well.", Squall told her.
"I used some nice wrapping paper.", Rinoa told him.
"Rinoa, thank you.", Squall told her.
"No problem.", Rinoa said,. She looked at her boyfriend, Squall. "I just wish I could plan something special.", Rinoa told him.
"Rinoa, you're fine.", Squall said. Squall picked Rinoa up gently and then put her down. Squall gave Rinoa a long kiss.
"Squall.", Rinoa said.
"Let's visit Shumi today.", Squall suggested.
"Sure.", Rinoa said.
"We need to find Seifer soon. We have to help Seifer come back.", Squall told her.
"I know. We can help Seifer.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, let's go.", Squall told her. Squall and Rinoa walked together.
"Hey, where are you going?", Irvine asked, spotting them.
"Shumi.", Squall said.
"Is the gang coming?", Irvine asked.
"Everyone's coming.", Rinoa said.
"Great.", Irvine said.
"You tend to follow everyone.", Squall told him.
"I guess so.", Irvine said.
"Rinoa and I are going on the Ragnorak with the others.", Squall explained. Squall and Rinoa walked together. The others met them on the Ragnorak. Squall piloted the Ragnorak to Shumi village. They walked out together. They walked passed everyone and to the Elder's home.
"It's been months since you've visited.", the Elder said.
"I know It has.", Squall commented.
"We visited someone you know.", Rinoa commented.
"In Fisherman's Horizon.", Selphie said.
"It was nice seeing them.", Rinoa said.
"Well, it's been a very long time. Here, we have something for you.", the Elder said, handing them a product.
"Thank you.", Zell said.
"What is it?", Squall asked.
"I guess we'll find out later.", Rinoa told him.
"We can walk around the village some more.", Quistis suggested.
"Sure.", Rinoa said good-naturedly.
"Let's see.", Squall said. They walked around for awhile. It was just as they'd remembered it.
"Squall, come here.", Rinoa said. I need to show him this, Rinoa thought.
"Alright.", Squall told her when they had alone time.
"This was the pond we were at.", Rinoa told him.
"Yeah, I remember that.", Squall told her.
"That's when we got to know each other better.", Rinoa said.
"Yeah. I really loved talking to you.", Squall told her. Squall kissed Rinoa.
"It's been so long since we've been here.", Rinoa commented.
"I know.", Squall said, putting an arm around Rinoa.
"I guess we better head back.", Squall said.
"Yes.", Rinoa told him. They returned to Garden. Soon the day ended. Rinoa went to bed and woke up the next morning. This is the big day, Rinoa thought. This was a big day.
"I should walk around Garden.", Rinoa said. The day passed and it was soon almost night.
"Rinoa, let's go to Ragnorak.", Squall said. Rinoa nodded. The others walked to the Ragnorak as well.
"I'm scared.", Rinoa said.
"I'm by your side.", Squall told her. Squall hugged Rinoa.
"It's beginning.", Irvine said.
The Ragnorak was piloted toward the building.
"I guess we must go in.", Squall said. He watched as the Ragnorak crashed into the building.
"This is it.", Rinoa said. "Ah!", she said.
"Rinoa!", Squall exclaimed. Squall ran next to Rinoa as the ship was tilting as it made it's way into the building. Squall held Rinoa's hand. The ship came to a halt inside the building.
"I guess we enter.", Rinoa said. Everyone entered the building.
"Them? They are here?", a voice asked.
"That voice…", Squall began.
"It's Fujin.", Rinoa said.
"Well, it's Squall and the gang, ya know?", Raijin commented.
"Yes, I'm here, with my true love, Rinoa.", Squall said. Squall put his arm around Rinoa.
"So you're together.", Raijin said.
"Long time no see.", Rinoa said, hoping to lighten the mood.
"Squall, we need you to hand over Rinoa.", Raijin said.
"What?", Squall asked.
"Hand her over.", Raijin said.
"No! I'll never hand over Rinoa! Rinoa is my girlfriend and my true love. I'll never let anyone take her.", Squall said.
"Squall.", Rinoa said. Rinoa jumped up, happily. He is the greatest boyfriend ever, Rinoa thought, smiling at her boyfriend, Squall.
"Oh, while we are talking, I won't let you resurrect Adel either.", Squall said.
"You tell them.", Irvine said.
"We can do this.", Selphie commented.
"We can help everyone.", Rinoa said.
"That's my message.", Squall stated.
"We must battle you.", Fujin said.
"Battle us?", Rinoa asked.
"Why do we need to?", Zell questioned.
"Yeah, why?", Squall asked.
"It's our orders. We can't turn back, ya know?", Raijin asked.
"Yes you can.", Rinoa said.
"It is possible.", Quistis told them.
"We can help you.", Rinoa commented.
"You just need to let us. We can help Seifer too.", Squall said.
"We need to fight, now.", Raijin told them.
"We have no choice. Let's not go too hard on them.", Squall told the others as the battle began. The battle lasted for awhile, until it finally ended.
"Squall, I can see why Seifer respected you.", Raijin said.
"I hope you will let us help Seifer.", Squall said.
"We believe in him.", Rinoa told them.
"We need to retreat.", Raijin said, as they left.
"We need to find out what's going on.", Squall said.
"We should look around.", Quistis said.
"We need to explore.", Rinoa said.
"Let's go.", Squall told them.
"Right.", Rinoa said. They began to explore the building and looked all over.
"It's Biggs and Wedge.", Squall commented.
"They are here.", Rinoa said.
"We could approach them.", Zell suggested.
"It may turn into a battle.", Selphie said.
"We may have to fight them.", Rinoa said.
"We can handle that.", Squall told them.
"We taking orders from some kid now.", Biggs said.
"He is our superior.", Wedge explained.
"We're taking orders from this guy… what career are we in?", Biggs asked.
"Very funny. Why don't you quit?", Wedge asked "Ha! I'm just kidding.", Wedge said.
"You're right. Absolutely right! As of today, I quit!", Biggs said.
"Well…", Wedge began.
"I'm gone.", Biggs said.
"What about our salary?", Wedge asked.
"Why didn't I think of this sooner? Quitting.", Biggs stated.
"Hey.", Squall said, entering.
"It's you guys.", Biggs said.
"We are entering and ready.", Squall told them.
"Well, we are out of here.", Biggs told them.
"Let's just make amends, okay? So we end up on good terms at least.", Squall explained.
"Amends are made.", Biggs said.
"Alright.", Squall said, watching them leave.
"I guess we have to keep going.", Rinoa said. It's good things worked out, Rinoa thought.
"Yep.", Squall told her.
"This will be tough.", Rinoa told him. Rinoa linked her arm through Squall's arm.
"We can do it.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa walked arm in arm through the building as the others walked arm in arm as well. They walked together and saw Fujina nd Raijin.
"You again?", Squall asked. They gasped as a machine appeared and a bttle ensured. As the battle ended, they walked forward. They knew what awaited.
"Let's go.", Rinoa said. Squall, Rinoa and the others walked inside the building and saw Seifer standing on top of a platform.
"We are here.", Squall said.
"I must show you some hospitality, since you are my guests.", Seifer said.
"Seifer.", Squall stated.
"Ah, welcome Squall.", Seifer said, grinning.
"Seifer, we can help you. Join us and help us.", Squall said.
"Sorry, Squall.", Seifer told them.
"Seifer, you are my best friend.", Squall told him.
"Squall…", Seifer began.
"Come on. Come back! I know you are still good inside.", Squall urged.
"We are with you.", Fujin said.
"What's up?", Seifer asked.
"You are a good person, yet you are being controlled by energy. We want to old you back.", Raijin told him.
"Seifer, you are a good person, please come back.", Rinoa said.
"We believe in you.", Squall told him.
"Hey, what's going on now? What's happening?", Seifer asked.
"Seifer, we want you to come back.", Raijin said.
"All of us.", Rinoa commented.
"You have to rely on Squall. He will help you.", Fujin told him.
"I thought we were a posse. We worked together through so much and now everything is gone?", Seifer asked.
"Seifer, please join us. I know you are a good person. Please come back.", Squall told him.
"Seifer, we want you to return.", Fujin said.
"Please come back, Seifer.", Rinoa said.
"Why is everyone turning on me?", Seifer asked.
"It's because we need you to come back.", Fujin said.
"We want to help you.", Rinoa said.
"We need you to come back.", Squall told him.
"It's been fun.", Seifer began. Seifer jumped down.
"Are you going to continue with this knight thing?", Squall asked.
"The knight has retired. You are a knight too, I see.", Seifer said.
"As a matter of fact, I am a knight. Rinoa's knight.", Squall said, putting an arm around Rinoa.
"We were both knights, so you should understand.", Seifer told him.
"We do. You are a good person and we want you to come back.", Rinoa said.
"I guess you could call me a young revolutionary.", Seifer commented.
"What?", Squall asked.
"I always need to be doing something big. I don't want to stop. I have to keep running. I've come this far… I have to make it to the end… to the goal.", Seifer said.
"We can help you, please come back. You are a good person.", Rinoa said.
"I must keep going. I can't share this goal with you.", Seifer said.
"You are my best friend. Come back!", Squall called.
"We were?", Seifer asked.
"Rinoa is my girlfriend. Seifer is my best friend. You two are the closest to me.", Squall said.
"We believe in you.", Rinoa said.
"We need to battle first.", Seifer said.
"I can't fight you!", Squall exclaimed. The battle began. Odin came forth.
"Odin?", Seifer asked as Odin came toward him. Seifer cut Odin in half.
"Odin?", Squall asked.
"I won't go down like that. Squall, show me what you got.", Seifer said.
"I will get you to come back.", Squall said.
"Let me add another scar.", Seifer said. The battle was long, but it soon ended.
"Seifer, are you alright?", Rinoa asked.
"Is this… the end?", Seifer asked.
"Seifer…", Rinoa said.
"Seifer… you can do it. You can become yourself.", Squall told him.
"Squall… Rinoa…", Seifer called.
"He's coming back.", Rinoa said.
"I… where am I?", Seifer asked.
"Seifer! You're back!", Squall exclaimed.
"Where… am I? Squall, was I battling you?", Seifer asked.
"It's alright. You have come back.", Squall said.
"I… what's going on?", Seifer asked. An energy surrounded him.
"Seifer?", Squall asked.
"I can't go down yet, Squall!", Seifer exclaimed.
"Seifer… the energy is taking over you!", Squall exclaimed.
"It's not over.", Seifer said.
"We'll save you.", Squall told him.
"I must go.", Seifer said, running.
"Squall!", Rinoa exclaimed. She was taken by Seifer.
"Rinoa!", Squall called.
"We need to follow Seifer.", Irvine said.
"Let's go follow Seifer. Let's find Rinoa.", Squall told them.
Seifer held onto Rinoa.
"Seifer! You're a good person. Please stop! We can save you and help you. We are on your side.", Rinoa said.
"I can't… go back.", Seifer told her.
"Please, we believe in you. We can help you. Haven't you done enough? We are all ready to help you. I know you're not like that.", Rinoa said.
"I have to keep going. I can't go back now! I can't go anywhere. The sorceresses as one! Ultimecia's wish!", Seifer said.
Squall loved his girlfriend, Rinoa. Rinoa was Squall's girlfriend. Seifer was Squall's best friend and rival. Squall was in a difficult predicament. His girlfriend, Rinoa was being taken. Squall looked up. His best friend, Seifer, was under a spell. He had taken Rinoa with him somewhere. He knew he may have to battle Seifer. He wanted to save Rinoa. Squall ran forward. "I must save her.", Squall said. Seifer was his best friend. Rinoa was his girlfriend. She was his true love. He knew what was going to happen.
Squall ran up to the top of a large building. Squall walked up and down the halls as music played. Squall walked forward across the bridge through the path.
Rinoa stood up. Squall was Rinoa's boyfriend. Seifer was Squall's best fried. Rinoa was Squall's girlfriend. Rinoa had been close to Seifer, and Rinoa was dating Squall. Rinoa loved Squall. Seifer was put under a spell. He had her in her arms. Rinoa didn't know what was going on. The Seifer she knew was kind and smart. The Squall she knew was loving and sweet. She thought about both of them and her situation as she stood there. What would Squall do? The nice Seifer she knew was now under a spell and had taken her. Rinoa was scared. This wasn't the same person. She was being pushed towards Adel. Rinoa had to do something.
"…Seifer. No more… Please?", Rinoa asked. Seifer was pushing her forward.
"Rinoa…", Seifer said. Seifer was a good person. Seifer was Squall's best friend. Seifer knew that Squall was Rinoa's boyfriend. Seifer used to talk to Rinoa and they had known each other well. Seifer remembered her. He heard a voice inside him, telling him to stop. He was under s spell and couldn't.
"Seifer! No!", Squall said, entering. Squall saw his girlfriend Rinoa. Squall saw his best friend Seifer. Seifer was under a spell and was pushing Rinoa forward toward Adel. He needed to do something. He must save Rinoa. Squall walked toward him.
"Rinoa and Adel! The sorceresses as one. Watch closely, Squall.", Seifer said. Seifer was a good person, but under a spell. Seifer pushed Rinoa forward toward Adel. As he began to move forward and push her, Rinoa landed on her knees. Adel had awakened and reached toward Rinoa. Rinoa screamed.
"Rinoa!", Squall exclaimed. Rinoa pushed passed everyone and saw Rinoa held captive by Adel. "Rinoa! Hang on! I'm coming!", Squall said.
"We need to save her.", Zell said.
"Just attack Adel.", Squall explained. Squall was face din battle against Adel. Rinoa was attached to Adel. Adel was draining her health. Squall began to cure Rinoa. Adel casted spells on them.
"Ah!", Rinoa screamed. As the battle ended, Adel vanished. Rinoa was freed. Rinoa began to sway from side to side.
"Rinoa!", Squall exclaimed. Squall ran to Rinoa and hugged her.
"Squall!", Rinoa exclaimed.
"I'm so happy you're alright.", Squall said, hugging Rinoa tightly.
"It's all thanks to you.", Rinoa said. My boyfriend, Squall is always there for me, Rinoa thought.
"I'm so glad.", Squall told her. Squall kissed Rinoa.
"Squall, I'm so glad you saved me.", Rinoa said.
"Seifer, please return to yourself.", Squall said.
"We know you can do it.", Rinoa told him.
"I…", Seifer began. The words of everyone entered Seifer. The energy inside of him changed and he returned to himself. For good this time.
"You're back.", Squall said.
"Thank goodness.", Rinoa told him.
"Hey there.", Seifer said.
"Seifer!", Squall exclaimed.
"I'm so sorry about everything. I finally got out of the spell. Rinoa, I'm really sorry.", Seifer said.
"It's alright.", Rinoa said.
"I'm sorry to you, especially, Squall.", Seifer told him.
"It's fine. You had no control over it.", Squall said. I forgive you, Squall thought.
"The truth was, as we were battling, the spell by the sorceress took over me. She decided to dig deep into my memory and use my past with Rinoa to generate a new energy. They turned my respect for Rinoa into a new energy and developed new feelings into my mind. They tried to get me to kill you, Squall. I didn't want to harm you or Rinoa. The energy in my mind changed my feelings toward both of you. I'm so sorry about everything.", Seifer said.
"It's fine, we're just glad you're back.", Squall said.
"Me too.", Seifer said. Seifer gave Squall a pat on the back. "Friends again.", Seifer said.
"You bet.", Squall said.
"Thanks.", Seifer said. Seifer gave Rinoa a pat on the back. "Good luck with Squall.", Seifer said.
"Thank you.", Rinoa told him.
"What now?", Squall asked. I'm so glad Rinoa's safe Squall thought.
"I know you may not forgive me after all I have done, but I was wondering if I could fight alongside you all.", Seifer said.
"What do you think, Rinoa?", Squall asked.
"I think it's fine. Welcome back.", Rinoa said.
"Thanks, everyone. I'm glad to be back.", Seifer said smiling.
"Do you approve of me and Rinoa?", Squall asked.
"Of course I approve. How long have you been together anyway?", Seifer asked.
"We've been together for over a month.", Squall said.
"They have been great weeks.", Rinoa told him.
"Good luck, guys.", Seifer said.
"Thanks.", Rinoa replied.
"Let's go.", Squall told her. They walked outside to meet with Laguna and the others.
"Now's your chance.", Laguna said. Suddenly, Rinoa fainted.
"Rinoa!", Squall exclaimed. "What did you do?", Squall asked.
"We are sending Rinoa into the past.", Laguna explained.
"It'll be fine.", Ellone said.
"She better be alright.", Squall said.
"Now, get Rinoa back.", Laguna said.
Rinoa stood up.
"Rinoa!", Squall exclaimed.
"I...was inside Adel...The young Adel...", Rinoa said.
"Are you alright?", Squall asked, going over to her.
"Yes, I'm fine.", Rinoa said.
"Ultimecia got inside Adel. Time compression is about to begin. Remember to think of good thoughts.", Laguna said.
"We can do this.", Squall said.
"Hang on.", Rinoa told him.
"Let's do it.", Irvine said.
"It will work.", Selphie told them.
"We have to think hard.", Zell commented.
"We can.", Rinoa said.
"Concentrate.", Quistis commented.
"I'll think hard.", Seifer said.
"We have to do this.", Squall told them.
"We have to think good thought so we don't separate.", Rinoa said.
"It's time.", Squall told them. They all began to think of good times, good memories.
Squall, Rinoa and the other party members began to fall. The ground began to shake. They went through a vortex. They floated down to many areas. The platform fell below them and they reached an area with bubbles. Squall's memories floated by inside the bubbles. Squall saw many of his memories beside him. They appeared as they happened. It was incredible, seeing all these events he went through beside him. Reliving those events. It was like watching films of memorable times of his life.
"Where are we going?", Squall asked as they floated down. They all plunged into a pool of water as the water rose.
"Where should we go?", Rinoa asked.
"To Edea's house.", Squall said.
"I'll… Probably disappear…", Rinoa said.
"Just stay be my side. I won't let you disappear!", Squall exclaimed.
"Thank you.", Rinoa said.
"I'm here.", Squall told her. As they flew through the air, Squall floated over to Rinoa and held her hand. They headed for the bottom of the ocean as it splashed up. A vortex appeared as they fell down and time compression began.
"I'm scared, yet excited.", Rinoa said as Squall held her hand.
"We have to wait until we reach the bottom.", Squall said, holding Rinoa's hand tightly. Finally, they reached the bottom.
"Whew.", Rinoa said.
"Made it.", Squall told her.
"Ah!", Rinoa exclaimed. Suddenly, lots of images appeared.
"Hm?", Squall questioned.
"What's going on?", Rinoa asked.
"Are you alright?", Squall asked her.
"Yes.", Rinoa said.
"Rin.", Squall said.
"Everything's okay.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa.", Squall said.
"You are so great.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, I'm so glad.", Squall said. Squall hugged Rinoa.
"We made it.", Rinoa said happily.
"We all made it.", Seifer said.
"Rinoa, we better get ready.", Squall said.
"Yeah.", Rinoa told him.
"This is going to be a challenge.", Selphie said.
"Almost.", Zell said.
"I hope we can do this.", Rinoa said.
"I know we can.", Squall said. I love Rinoa, Squall thought,
"Let's go.", Rinoa said. I love Squall, my boyfriend, so much, Rinoa thought.
"Is everyone ready?", Squall asked.
"Yes.", the others replied.
"Then let's go. Time compression has begun.", Squall said.
This was chapter 10. Some parts of the chapter were made at different times. Some of the chapter I had made weeks before other parts. Some quotes may be repeated, since I made different parts of the chapter at different times and added in other parts. I'm sorry if I repeated a lot of things and have similar scenes. I'm going to edit all my chapters when this is done and add lots of descriptions to make this a real story, instead of making mostly dialogue, I will add descriptions of people, locations and more. I'll wait until I finish this story and then I will go back and edit every chapter. This will be version one and version two will be my improved version. I changed Squall's personality a lot. Thank you for all your reviews. This story will have about 15 chapters. So five more chapters and then I will edit my story. I will edit some quotes and scenes that I may have repeated, add new scenes, delete some scenes, add more description and more. Thank you for all your comments.
