Squall sat at his desk on the third floor of Balamb Garden. The young Commander felt bored of the same routine day after day. The last year had been incredibly quiet and the lack of conflict was due to fear of the famous six who defeated a powerful Sorceress from the future. There had been little to no human conflict, and only a few monsters had appeared in populated areas and dispersed in fast time.
Rinoa burst through his office door, in a great hurry. Her dark brown eyes were wide and her long, brown hair was threatening to become a tangle of knots thanks to her running through Garden. "Squall haven't you watched the news?" She huffed, trying to regain her composure. Squalls steel blue eyes observed her disheveled appearance. She was beautiful even when she seemed so bewieldered. He eventually chose to shake his head from side to side. "Strange monsters appeared over Dollet ealier today. They came through a portal!" Squall suddenly became incredibly withdrawn, a trademark everyone was aware of when he became engrossed in deep thought.
After what seemed like hours, Squall snapped out of his trance and looked at his stunning girlfriend, "I'll arrange a team to do a recon around the area that the portal appeared over." Squall reached over and pressed a square yellow button and spoke sternly into a protruding microphone. " This is Commander Leonheart. Could Instructors Dincht, Trepe, Kinneas and Tilmitt please report to my office immediatly."
Zell. Quistis, Irvine and Selphie filed through Squall's office door. They looked at him with apprehension in their eyes. "I don't know if you are aware of the situation in Dollet, so I will fill you all in. Earlier today a portal appeared in Dollet Town Center. Shortly after the appearance of the portal, strange creatures passed through and disappeared shortly afterwards." Once his speech finished, the other five soldiers passed glances at each other and then looked back at him, awaiting further instruction. "I have decided that all of us will go and investigate this incident and see if we can discover where these creatures can from!" They all stood in silence for what seemed like an age, then Zell chose to add his views on the current subject. "You think that we might be responsible for this?" Squall stared at his and and shrugged his shoulders, he didn't know what to say at this point.
