She had always been like that.

Ever since moving to Twilight Town.

Ever since she met Seifer, Rai, and Vivi.

Ever since she became part of their 'group'.

She'd always been like…that…

And one day, Seifer had had enough.

It was a warm, sunny day in their quaint little town. The small group of teens wandered the streets, enjoying the town's classic icy treat: Sea Salt ice cream. They group chatted excitedly about the upcoming Struggle Tournament. The bold leader of the group had instantly signed up, his eyes and mind set upon first prize and that rather snazzy-looking trophy that came with it.

"First prize will be mine." Seifer boasted, his aqua eyes glittering with self-confidence and pride; a perfect reflection of the boy's big ego. The brawny-looking one of the group took a large bite of his ice cream and nodded enthusiastically, clenching his fists.

"Of course you'll win, ya'know?" His voice was thick and quite frankly made him sound very uneducated. "Seifer's the greatest, ya'know?"

"Yes…he is…" The short one of the cluster said, his voice shaken with timorous and shyness. He wasn't exactly the most confident guy around. His deepest wish was to become as strong and as self-assured as Seifer was someday.

"Success."

The three boys stopped walking and turned back towards the girl.

She did it AGAIN!

None of them couldn't seem to grasp why it was Fuu talked the way she did. In all the years they had been friends, she'd never spoken more than two or three words. And it really ticked Seifer off. He'd tried to keep his cool about him, but it was slowly deteriorating with every snippet of a sentence or thought she'd offer.

Noticing their frustrated glares, the girl replied,

"Problem?"

This sent Seifer over the edge. "Why do you speak like that? Is there a problem with you or something!?"

Rai nodded, "Yeah, ya'know? You never speak, and when you do its super annoying, ya'know?" Desiring to follow Seifer's lead, but not having the confidence, Vivi could only shake his head. Fuu looked at them all impassively before taking a small lick of her ice cream. Narrowing his eyes, Seifer turned back around to walk, the two other guys following his lead.

"Did you ever consider…"

The boys turned around sharply, their cool and calm demeanor gone, replaced with expressions of pure shock and amazement.

"Fuu just said more than three words, ya'know?!" Rai exclaimed, taking a step forward. "Say something else, ya'know!"

Another lick of her ice cream. Another expressionless gaze.

"Did you ever consider…that there is nothing to be said in the company of ignorance and stupidity?"

And ever since then, not any of them questioned what she said or how she said it again.

XD This idea came to me yesterday in school when I was really bored. Actually, this turned out sorta nice! I always knew Fuu had it in her to speak! But the question was: What exactly would she say? XD
