Rinoa: Um (*at Selphie) You said you're going to introduce me to your Commander, where is he?

Selphie: Oh my! Yes .sorry.I forgot heheh.

Raine: Oh dear he's at the Winhill Cavern. He said he's going there to check things out. He's such a nice lad.

Selphie: Winhill Cavern? I've never been there before .um can we?

Seifer: Go there? Forget it Selp. You know he doesn't want anybody goofing around him when he's working.

Rinoa: We're not going to do that. We just want to check him out.

Laguna: Ok then. Kids let's go....

Seifer: Home? (*Smiling) told ya Selph hehe

Laguna: .to the WINHILL CAVERN!!! (*pointing at the cavern) (*posing as if he's some kind of a super hero) HAR HAR HAR!

Rinoa and Selphie: WHOO HOO!

Seifer: (*falls to the ground like an anime)

?????: (*in the dark, staring at the family) (*~some day we will meet again.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Quistis: (*walking with Leon) (*~oh how I've been waiting for this romantic moment to come, walking side by side underneath the moonlight..ohhhh) (*Giggles)

Leon: Huh? Why? (*~heck what is she thinking?)

Quistis: Nothing.I just remembered something funny.yeah that's it.

Leon: (*still walking three steps away from Quistis) You said you want to talk.

Quistis: Yes

Leon: About what?

Quistis: Not here. Let's go somewhere else. How bout you? You said you want to discuss something too.

Leon: Yeah. (*halts) .about the "unofficial" business here in Winhill? (*looks at Quistis)

Quistis: (*~Oh my! How.?) Unofficial? What do you mean by that Leon?

Leon: .leaving one's duties and taking "Balamb Train" just for "personal scheme"

Quistis: Who told you that? I ..um .I mean .what personal scheme are you talking about? We came here to aid the Estharian scientist who will be coming tomorrow morning at the Winhill Cavern. We need high ranking SeeDs to guide these geeks .I mean these scientist.coz there are lots of Vysage here and don't forget, that monster got two back up dancers And oh.about the us taking the train, we were about to use the Balamb ship but dunno something came up.they said something is broken and ..ahh don't care what it is.

Leon: How bout using Head master Cid's personal train? He said SeeDs can use that in case there's an important mission.

Quistis: Um..I think he went to Centra to visit your mother so .we have no choice but to use the Balamb Train. So I ask the other 3 low ranking SeeDs to return to Balamb. So.do you have any other uncertainties that are bothering you, Commander? (*~whew that was close)

Leon: Yes .

Quistis: (*~ohh.what now?) What? (*pretending as if she's not guilty with Leon's viewpoint about her coming to Winhill)

Leon: (*walking around her as if he is scolding a child but in cool way) .about you not informing the ONE "In charge" here in this mission? Performing some "Unnecessary ACTION" by ordering MY subordinates to return back to the HQ without them informing ME about there act? (*leans closer to her) Leaving HER students unattended? (*gazing at Quistis' blue eyes as if he's finding all of the answers in it)

Quistis: (*blushing) (*~ohhh I think I'm going to melt...he's looking right into my eyes.oh my! I cannot lie to him)

Leon: (*still looking at her) Don't tell me, Instructor Aki was handling YOUR class; I saw the teacher's scheds and he's on leave 'til the end of the month. We all know that only you and Instructor Aki can handle SeeDs and level 50 & up students? (*~let's see if you can still escape with this)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Zell: that's it!

Roger: What? That was ..

Irvine: There's nothing we can do but to follow her.

Zell: I'm definitely against that idea of Quistis but.

Roger: but?

Zell: She offered me something I can't refuse.

Roger: (*eyes widened) Whoaa what?

Zell: A hot.

Roger: Hot?

Zell: A hot, juicy and delicious HOTDOGS (*sobs)

Zell: Oh! Hello

Selphie: Um excuse me, Mr. Laguna and Mrs. Raine; meet Zell Dincht, he's a SeeD and the best martial artist in Balamb

Zell: (*back flips) Pleased to meet you (*bows)

Laguna and Raine: WOW!

Selphie: This is Irvine Kinneas; he's a former student in Galbadia but now a SeeD like us in Balamb, he's our sharpshooter.

(*all of a sudden the cave becomes dark)

Zell: Who turn off the lights?

Irvine: (*moonwalks then tags his cowboy hat) Yeah that's me!

Laguna and Raine: uhhh.

Laguna: Nice effects eh?

Selphie: And oh! Last but not the least.here's Roger!

Roger: Eh? That's it?

Selphie: heheh sorry dunno your abilities, please show us your stuff!

Seifer: This better be good or I'm going to demonstrate what a good show is (*drawing his gunblade) heheh

Laguna: Let's give him a chance. Ok bring it on kid!

Roger:(*gets a 4 ft. rock on the ground then throws it in the air, he closes his eyes slowly drawing his scimitars then jumps as high as the rock then flashes of light can only be seen)

Others: WHOAAA!!! (*amazed)

Roger: (*he falls to the ground then bows as pieces of stone falls to the ground) TADAHHH!!! Please check out my masterpiece! (*Smiling)

Seifer: What's that?

Rinoa: Ohhh a cute mini- Winhill!

Selphie: Wow! He copied Winhill town by carving it using the rock.

Raine: Laggy dear look! It's our house! (*jumps up and down as if a kid) How adorable!

Laguna: WHOA (*jumps up and down too, imitating Raine)

Selphie: (*at Roger) So you're a SeeD and our greatest sculptor?

Roger: (*gets a stone then hits his forehead) (*falls to the ground)

Rinoa: Huh? (*notices something shines at the mini-Winhill) Hey look! A ..ring?

Irvine and Zell: OH NO!

Roger: (*stands upon hearing Rinoa) WHAT?

Rinoa: (*looking at the ring, narrowing her eyes) I've seen this ring before.hmm. I can't remember where.and when..hmm.

Zell: Ugh! (*~poor Quistis)

Selphie: HEY! That's our Commander's Ring!

Rinoa: (*still looking at the ring) Hmm.. (*~Wait, could've this be?) (*her heart skips a beat) Your.Commander's ring? Um.

Zell: Yeah, he likes that ring so much, it was given to him by his dad.

Rinoa: Dad?

Irvine: Our Headmaster.

Rinoa: Sure bout that?

Roger: That's what he said to us. You can ask him about that if you like. (*leans closer at Rinoa) (*whispers at her) What's wrong with it sweety? (*Winks)

Rinoa: (*backing away) Oh..um

Selphie: Why not give it to him personally and ask him bout that. (*Smiles)

Seifer: Or you can give it to me and I'll throw that ring into the sea heheh

Others: Seifer?!!

Seifer: Geez.as if I can do that.

Laguna: what's wrong Rin?

Rinoa: Oh...nothing.yeah I guess .I have to go now and look for him. Yeah that's righty!

Boys: (*in unison) it's getting dark outside, I can accompany you. ..eh? (*looking at each other) (*still in unison) why are you copying me? Arghhhh! (*wrestle with each other)

Laguna: Yeah they're right. It's too dangerous to go by yourself.

Rinoa: don't worry bout me sir. I'll be alright! I do know a better way to get to the Winhill town safe. Tah-tah see you later guys.

Raine: Take care rin, we'll catch you up later.
