Chapter II: The First Day
" Yea I love you! I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU FIVE PIECE CHICKEN DEAL AT PYEPYES!"
It was a sun shining early morning, the sky was blue and the birds were chirping. Sleeping down in a messy bed in a messy room filled with soda cans and food wrappers and comic books was Fira. He slept with in a black tank top and boxers. Stepping into his side of the room was Rikku, she wore a bra and mini skirt with her hair up in a big ponytail and smaller braided hairs.
" Whoa this room's a total sty" Rikku said walking over to Fira's window and opening the blinds to the bright sunny morning. Fira's arm immediately covered his face before he even woke up. " Hey…what the…" Fira muttered as he yawned while getting up.
" Time to wake up roomie" Rikku said walking over by the door.
" Get dress today's our first day as Balamb students!" Rikku said. Fira leaned over on and landed on his pillow. " Five more minutes" He said closing his eyes. " NO!" Rikku screamed pulling the pillow from under his head. "GET UP NOW!" She said picked him up onto his feet.
" Okay geez Rikku what are you my mom?" Fira said walking over to his drawer.
"That's more like it now hurry" Rikku said running out of his of the room.
Meanwhile…Fixing her hair in the window was a girl with pierced ears, a pierced navel and metal chokers around her neck. She had long brown hair, red eyes and wore a black blouse that zipped up and showed off her belly and belly button. For her lower half she wore a sort of black skirt with black shorts underneath and on her feet she wore some black skater sneakers. Her room was neat and well put to together with a big poster of LINKIN PARK on the wall.
(Author's note: Think Tifa from FFVII: AC with pierces in her ears)
" Today's my first day" She said to herself.
" Hey Utada got any pink lipstick?" Yuna said walking into her side of the room in a bra and panties. Utada tossed her a small little black container. Yuna caught it and winked." Thanks"
" No problem" Utada said back not turning away from her reflection in the mirror on the back of her closet door. When Yuna came back into Utada's room she wore a white blouse with some tight blue jean shorts that really showed off her butt and black leather boots.
" Hey you ready to go?" Yuna said putting on her belt satchel with her guns in them.
" Uh huh" Utada replied picking up a Katana in a black sheath that lied neatly on her bed. Both girls ran out of the room locking their door. They both ran around the crowded hallways with navy blue uniforms and SeeD uniforms until they reached the center elevator.
" Come on the classes are on the second floor" Yuna said as the both of them walked into the elevator. The doors started to close just before it did a hand with a black glove reached into the path of the close doors causing it to open again. Walking in was two girls one in a black mage suit with a big hat and the other in a kimono with white pants.
" WOOT we made it!" the cat girl cheered.
" Barely because of you baka!" Kuro said slapping her upside the head. " Why did you cut off the alarm clock!"
" So it wouldn't disturb my sleep" Kiako said with a smile. As the both of them argued Yuna walked over and pressed F2 on the elevator. When the door opened again they were on a higher floor, the four of them walked in unison like a group.
"Who are those two?" Yuna whispered to Utada. Utada replied with a simple shrug… As the four of them walked into the main hallway of the second floor a tall boy in black leather with long silver hair walked past them. All four of the girls paused for a second as his mako filled eyes met only one in the group but only for a second then he continued walking.
" Who was…that!" All four girl's said at the same time.
They all walked east reading roll sheets on the doors as they walked. They stopped at one roll sheet and saw:

"Alright we're in the same class!" Yuna said as Utada and her hugged. "YAY KURO!" Kiako tried to hug her but Kuro blasted her back with a Water spell. " Kiako not only do I have to share a room with her but my homeroom class too… darn it I swear the man upstairs is trying to get me!" Kuro said rubbing her temple.
The four of them walked into the class together already in the class early was Hao, Sesshoumaru, Aerith, Tifa, Squall and Sephiroth. Yuna and Utada headed for the back of the class where the vacant seats were and Kiako and Kuro sat in the second row near the front of class. After about 10minutes the class began to fill up all except one student. Quistis walked into the classroom with her whip and wearing a SeeD uniform.
" Okay class settle down settle down" Quistis said sitting at her desk. The bell had rung and just as it rung one final character walked into the class. It was Fira… He walked in yawned and stood at the front of the class everyone was silent. He was searching around for a seat… As he stood their everyone else's mind sort of floundered around.
'Whoa who is that? He's…cute' A girl dressed like the FFX Yuna sitting in the front of the class. She was staring at him with a glowing red face.
' Huh hahahah what a geek' Seifer thought relaxed back in his chair.
' Hmm unusual' Kuro thought rubbing her chin.
' Hey who is this guy? Huh yippee I can hear myself talk hello…helloooo' Kiako thought with a big smile on her face.
' Another human' Sesshoumaru thought.
' I am the strongest being in existence everyone else are just bugs no obstacle for me at all' Hao thought.
' MAN THERE ARE SOME FINE LOOKIN HONEYS IN HERE ESPECIALLY THE LITTLE BLACKMAGE CHICA WITH THE SCOWL ON HER FACE YEA I SEE YOU!' Avalon thought popping in a breath mint.
' Hmmm hmhmhm are those Keyblades? Hahaha if he's anywhere near as strong as Sora… then this will be an interesting school year' Sephiroth thought.
' Man Tifa looks absolutely HOT today' Cloud thought.
' Cloud looks so HOT today' Tifa thought.
' Err Tifa had better stay away from my Cloud, I'm keeping an eye on you, you whore' Aerith thought.
'…' Squall's thinking of nothing in particular
' Squall is too cute when it looks like he's thinking' Rinoa thought with a slight laugh.
' Hmm I remember seeing that Tidus boy yesterday! Man he was cute I wonder if he'll ask me out?" Yuna thought giggling and toying around with her fingers.
' What's he looking for?' Utada thought looking at Fira who was just standing there and looking about the class.
' A damn seat…come on see this is why I hated school back on earth the last guy always has trouble finding the seat' Fira thought rubbing the back of his dreads.
' When is he gonna take a seat so I can instruct my class?" Quistis thought.
Breaking the silence was Utada she raised her hand then pointed to a seat beside her.
" Here's a seat" Utada said to him. Fira's eyes grew wide he then casually walked up the stairs to the back row and sat down beside Utada.

--------------------------------------------------------(Quistis's Desk)-----------------------------------------------
(Author's note: Just so you know who's sitting where)
"Okay class" Quistis said standing up and walking around her desk and to the front of the class. " Let's start off by introducing ourselves first I know this is only homeroom but I want to get to know all of you, when I call you I want you to stand up and introduce yourself"
" Millie chan" Quistis called first.
The young Yuna cosplayer stood up and cleared her hair from her face. Everyone stared at her she didn't look back at any of them expect Fira. Her heart was pounding as her eyes met his. He was just sitting with his head down on his desk looking at her.
" Um my name is… Millie…Chan…" She bowed.
" And tell us about yourself Millie" Quistis said leaning on her desk with her arms crossed to her chest.
" Well I like too… write poems, um…shop and…um" The whole time she was staring at him. Fira eventually got bored of looking at her then looked down at the desk. " Roleplay" She said hoping Fira would look at her again but sadly he didn't.
" Okay that's pretty cool okay, next Kiako Ornitier" Quistis said. Seconds after her name was called Kiako stood up tall like a sugar high fan girl.
" Okay Kiako" Quistis said. As Kiako began to talk Fira not paying attention stared at Utada, Utada glared back for only a second but then met his soft dark eyes.
" Hi" Fira said.
" Hi" She smiled back removing a bang from her face.
" So um… thanks for the seat and everything" Fira said. Utada just looked back and smiled.
" No problem I was happy to do it" Utada said.
" So like my name is Fira" He said holding up his hand.
" Utada pleased to me you" Utada said bowing her head alittle.
" Uh the pleasure is all mine" Fira said rubbing the back of his head. Utada let out a gentle smile as they let go of eachother's hand. ' His hand feels so soft and gentle…not what I expected'
" What brings you to the garden?" He asked smiling alittle.
" I dunno I've always wanted to be a SeeD" Utada said.
" Me too" Fira said.
" Basically to travel around and see new sights." Utada and Fira said at the same time.
" What? You too" Utada and Fira once again said at the same time. Fira then let out alittle laugh as did Utada covering her mouth with alittle giggle.
' There's something about her' Fira thought.
' There's something about him' Utada thought as well.
' I dunno what it is but I like the feeling I'm getting from her/him' Fira and Utada thought the exact same thoughts unaware of what the other was thinking. Finally Kiako's words came back into effect as Fira tuned in again.
" I hate spiders because I'm really allergic!" Kiako said non stop talking.
"Okay, okay, okay Kiako thank you, you can sit now" Quistis said as a anime style sweat dropped down the side of her head. " Okay Fira"
After about five seconds Fira stood up to rub his chin.
" Okay my name is Fira" Fira started.
' Oh he's so great, I wonder if we share the same qualities' Millie thought.
' Hmm insignificant' Hao thought.
" I like to do a lot of crap, from fighting fiends to eating lots of foreign foods' Fira said. " I don't particularly hate anything except when I lose my shoe and I can't find it and when the Besaid Aurochs lose a bliztball game" Fira said.
The first bell finally rings and it's time to move onward to a core period class now. IN THE HALLWAY…
" Hi Fira!" Kiako said running up beside the young keyblade master.
" Uh do I know you?" Fira said looking down at her.
" Sure ya do I'm Kiako remember? In the homeroom class?" Kiako said pointing back to the class the both of them stepped out of five seconds ago.
" Hmmm Kiako… oh right your that kid that's scared of spiders right?" Fira said.
" Um, yea" Kiako said blushing in shame.
" SPIDER!" Fira shouted pointing down to the floor. "AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Kiako jumped on his shoulders while staring down at the floor. " WHERE? WHERE!" Fira pulled her off of him and stared at laughed his ass off.
" I'm just screwin with ya" Fira said putting her down and walking off. " HAHAHAH Geez that was priceless"
" YOU SHOULDN'T DO THAT!" Kiako said punching him in the arm. Fira laughed as he swaggered to the side from Kiako's punch.
" So what class do ya got next cat girl?" Fira asked still laughing.
" Geometry with Instructor Hatake! The bestest instructor in the Garden" Kiako said.
" I got that guy next period too" Fira said.
" WHAT ARE YOU SERIOUS?" Kiako said.
" Just check out my schedule" Fira said handing Kiako his piece of paper. Kiako looked at her paper then at his.
" I've got three of your classes, Geometry, Biology and Art" Kiako said. " Great from now on you're my friend and when you record notes I want to borrow them got it"
" Why can't you write down your own notes?" Fira replied.
"Geometry? And Biology? Come on those classes are like snooze fests for me" Kiako said waving her hand around.
" Whatever" Fira laughed.
During First Period, most students have a first period and most students don't like for instance…Sitting around in Quad meditating was the young blackmage Kuro. Infront of her a ball of fire was floating, that ball of fire turned into a ball of water then spun in infront of her. She had complete control of her powers it was a rare sight in deed. Avalon was just walking into the quad, he spotted Kuro then pulled out some mint spray. He opened his mouth and gave it afew sprays then walked down onto floor level… He walked up to Kuro.
" Hey babe" Avalon said. With that there was a huge explosion, Kuro's power erupted out of her into one big fire blast blowing back Avalon. A lot of students gathered around.
"Whoa what was that?"
"What happened?"
" Holy crap did you see those flames"
When Kuro finally got ahold of her self she seen Avalon lying on the ground. " Okay nothing to see here!" Kuro said holding up her fist. With that the other students took off running. Kuro walked over to Avalon and slapped him afew times on the face.
" Avalon, Avalon" Kuro said shaking him.
" Wha…" Avalon said coming to.
" How many fingers am I holding up" Kuro said holding up two fingers.
" 8" Avalon said.
" Eh… close enough" Kuro said standing up onto her feet and dusting herself off. " Sorry about before it's not wise to disturb me when I'm meditating"
" I know not to do that again" Avalon said standing up. " So babe… are you single or what?"
" Babe?" Kuro repeated instantly her anger level went from 0 to 1million. Avalon stared at Kuro then wrapped his arm around her shoulder. Kuro grew more and more furious! A wand went across Avalon's face and Avalon hit the ground, Kuro then started to kicking Avalon repeatedly.
" First of all I'm a girl not some whore on the street SECOND weather I'm single or not is none of your business and THIRD I'm not sorry for blowing you up the first time TAKE THIS!" Kuro blasted Avalon with a fire spell right after kicking him half to death then cooled him off with a Blizzard attack locking him in a glacier fo ice. She then stomped off as students cleared a path for her.
Avalon broke out of the ice then stood up as if nothing happened.
" Man she's so cute when she's angry…anyway…" Avalon said turning around to face a group of girls. "Oh ladies!"
Sitting down on a bench watching the whole thing was Cloud and Tifa.
" It was like watching a movie" Tifa said.
" Yea and Kuro played the hell out of her part" Cloud said.
" Err Avalon that little flirt" Tifa said looking at Avalon as multiple girls wrote down their dorm room numbers on his hands.
" Man he's got game" Cloud said.
" Don't take up for him" Tifa said playfully shoving Cloud. Cloud playfully shoved her back, Tifa smirked with a smile then pushed him alittle. The both of them went to shoving eachother back and forth with a smile until Tifa pushed Cloud down, Cloud while falling grabbed Tifa's arm and pulled her down on him. Tifa and Cloud's faces were about 5centimeters away. Tifa exhaled and Cloud inhaled as the both of them breathed as one.
" Tifa" Cloud whispered.
" Yes Cloud" Tifa whispered back as Cloud stroked her hair clearing it from her beautiful face.
" I think I'm in love with you" He whispered kissing her.
" Stop Cloud" Tifa jumped up off of him. " You're with Aerith I can't"
" What Aerith doesn't know…" Cloud said kissing her on the lips.
"…Won't hurt her" Tifa finished as she wrapped her arms around Cloud's broad neck.
Later that day LUNCHTIME in the cafeteria!
Fira and Zell stood in line impatiently waiting Fira waiting for Hamburgers and Zell waiting for Hot dogs.
" Hotdogs" Zell said jumping up and down punching the air.
" Hamburgers…extra ketchup" Fira said.
Also in the line were many other students.
" So Utada I heard you were little talk with that Fira" Yuna said tapping her shoulder.
" Yea so" Utada said turning around to face her.
" Any sparks fly?" Yuna said looking at Fira. Utada turned to look at Fira as well he was fixing himself something to eat and putting ketchup on his burgers.
" No" Utada said getting back in line.
" If you say so…" Yuna said staring at her suspiciously.
" I wonder if they have Ramen, I don't eat anything else but Ramen… I hope they got beef" Naruto said crossing his fingers.
" Naruto your annoying!" Sakura said angrily. " So Sasuke what are you gonna eat?"
"…" Sasuke didn't replied he just closed his eyes as if annoyed by Sakura.
" Alright they better have beef stew" Lloyd said stepping up as the line moved.
" I just want a salad I'm trying to watch my weight" Colette said with a smile.
Sitting around a lunch table eating was Zell, Irvine, Avalon, Tidus, Zidane, Vivi and Amarant. Fira was just sitting down at the table.
" Sup guys" Fira said sitting down.
" Sup dude" everyone said as he took a seat in between Amarant and Zidane.
" Yo like I was saying Irvine I could totally get more girls than you by the time this day is over with" Avalon said punching Irvine in the arm.
"What's your secret with the ladies?" Zidane asked.
" Me, good ole pimp game" Avalon said.
" Yea same for me" Irvine said.
" The more money you got the more power ya got, and girls like power and fame" Tidus said.
" My grandpa told me that girls like it when guys be nice to them and polite" Vivi said. Everyone was silent for about 3whole minutes then bursted into laughter even Amarant chuckled at that childish remark.
" Girls these days don't go for that BULL" Amarant raising his head up.
" Fira what about you what's your methods for getting a girl" Zidane asked him.
" Hmm my methods…I don't have any" Fira said. " I don't consider myself to be a playa or pimp I just be me I guess"
" Ah here we go with that be yourself crap" Irvine said.
" Save the speech" Avalon said holding up his hand. " Girls won't respect a guy without a cool car and money end of story that be yourself crap doesn't work and it never did for us guys…Every man in the world had to stretch the truth abit to get his girl to lay down with him"
" I don't believe that's true" Vivi said.
" Well it's the truth…" Irvine said eating his spaghetti and pointing his fork at Vivi. " When puberty comes to smack you in the face kid you'll understand"
During the entire conversation Zell was stuffing his face with Hotdogs.
" A irl….. nly ppreciates… str… uys" Zell said with a mouth full of hotdogs.
" What did he say?" Everyone asked.
At the far end at the lunchroom eating alone was Millie she had a small salad with a diet coke. She stared at Fira as he laughed and talked with the people at his table.
" Fira… I know I've only heard your name once or twice and we've never met but… the thing is I love you" Millie said to herself. " Noway that's lame" She said eating some lettuce in ranch sauce. She grabbed a pencil and paper.
(On the paper)
Dear Fira
I…………………………….
(Back)
Millie stared at the blank piece of paper instantly gaining writer's block. Suddenly Utada, Yuna, Kuro, Kiako, Rikku and Paine walked up to her with trays.
" Millie" Utada said. Millie jumped up spilling her Diet Coke over the letter.
" Oh…" Millie said trying to clean it up.
" Oh crap I'm sorry lemme help" Utada said.
" No… I-I-I got it" Millie said cleaning up the spilled pop. She grabbed her letter and books then ran off.
" She's weird" Rikku said.
" Not as weird as you, Who wears a bra and mini skirt in public?" Kuro said. Rikku lowered her head in shame.
Later that day in Instructor Goofy's classKiako and Fira sat next to eachother as Goofy walked in the middle of the class with a apron covered in paint.
" Ahuck welcome class to your first day of Art class with Goofy" Goofy said chuckling. "Well we'll kick off your first assignment with alittle partner on partner assignment"
" Alright! Fira let's team up!" Kiako said raising her hand.
"Woop D doo" Fira said yawning.
" 1 person has to be the model and another has to draw the model" Goofy said handing out drawing pads. " Now choose your partners"
"We're cool" Kiako said giving Fira a power noogie. Suddenly a tall girl with long blonde hair, blue eyes and honey milk colored skin wearing a SeeD uniform walked over to Fira and placed her hand on his shoulder.
" Wha" Fira looked up to see her.
" We meet again" She said smiling at him.
" Oh yea you pointed out the auditorium to me I remember" Fira recalled.
' He remembers a girl from way yesterday that he doesn't even know but he forgets my name in five seconds' Kiako thought.
" So you're a SeeD?" Fira said looking at her up and down. His eyes stopped at specific cough spot of her body.
" Yea a SeeD that has this class" She said. " Wanna be my partner"
" Sure…" Fira replied mesmerized by her sapphire eyes.
" FIRA! WE'RE PARTNERS!" Kiako shouted.
" My name is Torrence Pierce" She said Fira raised his hand shook hers.
"I'm Fira…no last name" Fira said.
" FIRA!" Kiako screamed.
" Huh?" Fira said.
" We're partners" Kiako said with watery eyes. Torrence walked off then came back with a boy in a purple tuxedo with long jelled purple hair and purple colored.
" Torrence what is this…oh…. Hello" He said sitting close to Kiako.
" Kiako this is Vale, Vale Kiako" Torrence said grabbed Fira and walking off.
" Oh you are THE most gorgeous thing besides me, that I've ever seen in my life" Vale said taking Kiako's hand.
"DON'T LEAVE ME HERE!" Kiako screamed.
" Instructor Goofy we're going to leave the class to get a better background of the model I hope this is okay" She said with an innocent smile.
"It's just fine ahuck" Goofy replied.
" Thanks" Torrence said grabbing Fira and pulling him outside.
" Where we goin?" Fira asked.
" You'll see" Torrence said.
Torrence pulled Fira down to the first floor then down through the hallways and into the Training Facility. She pulled him into the intersection that cuts off left or right in the Training Facility.
"HERE? How am I suppose to draw you when there are fiends attacking every 5minutes" Fira said.
" There is a place here a beautiful place where you can see the whole garden from here a place where the fiends never go" She said. " I want you to draw me behind the Garden in my most beautiful form"
" Uh…Ooookay" Fira said. ' CCCCCCRRRRRRAZZZZZZZZY! Maybe I should have stuck with Kiako.'
Torrence and Fira ran through the Training Facility dodging monsters to reframe from messing up the art supplies. Until they reached a hidden hallway that led further on into the Training Facility. Torrence and Fira walked the hallway all the way through until they reached a big balcony. Right infront of us was the Garden it was far off and you could see the big floating halo thing over the Garden and everything.
" It's some sight huh?" Torrence said. "My boyfriend and I used to come to this spot all the time… to mess around, break curfew"
" What happened to him?" Fira asked, as the both of them just stood there staring at the Garden.
" He…passed on… We were in the middle of our SeeD exam he used a forbidden GF…Diablos… Diablos back fired and killed him because he wasn't strong enough to control his power" Torrence said.
" Oh… I'm sorry" Fira said.
" You remind me a lot of him… He had long dreadlocks and dark soft eyes like yours" Torrence said walking over to the edge of the balcony. All of a sudden Torrence started to…disrobe. She took off her SeeD jacket, then her skirt then her underwear and gauntlets and boots.
' HOLY CRAP' Fira said dropping his pencil.
" I don't want you to draw just my body but the essence of my soul" She stepping towards Fira slowly and carefully.
" We're so high up aren't you cold?" I said.
" That's irrelevant" She said walking up to Fira and bending down to pick up his pencil.
" You need this, do it right okay?" She said kissing him on the forehead she was afew inches taller than Fira. "For luck"
Fira sat down to draw her as she modeled perfectly like a professional.
" Have you done this before?" Fira asked staring at her then back at the board trying to draw the basic outline of her first.
" Yes…With my boyfriend" She said nonchalantly.
" Oh sorry for reminding you of him again" Fira said now drawing in the eyes.
" It's okay I think I see him inside of you" She said. With Fira paused for afew seconds.
Later that day it was around Dusk, the last bell had rung and it was time for the Students to retire to their dorms.
Fira had walked up to his door opened the door and walked to his room on the left and Rikku walked into her's on the right.
" What a crazy first day this has been" Fira said kicking his boots off and lying down on the bed he was feeling more and more exhausted as he talked. " Met a lot of nutty people… I wonder if…" Fira said just before being knocked off into dream land.
MeanwhileSitting in a room on a grand thrown was Lady Ultimecia and three men in black knight armor. They watched a huge crystal ball that kept an eye on every and all students on Balamb campus.
"Hmm Future SeeDs" She said liking her finger. Ultimecia smiled deviously as the crystal ball showed multiple pictures of kids in the Garden.
