I do not own final fantasy 8 and never will own the rights to this great game it kicks 7 by far but yeah as I have said about...Uh …52 times now so lol I added up how many no-claimers I've written random uh.
Chapter 21: Winhill part 2"Hey man wait up…"Zek yelled as he ran up to catch up to James, but fell over stunned when he saw a white figure walk by him "ahh..."Zek screamed falling back onto the hard floor.
"Hey Zek are you okay man?" James asked after seeing zek trip over and scream, Zek got to his feet painfully "oww who made that floor so damm hard" Zek complained.
"I believe the person who built it Zek" a sharp voice remarked, Zek looked up to see Quistius staring at him, Zek looked at her surprised "hey what the hell are you doing here shouldn't you be with the rest of the orphanage gang or something" Zek snapped back.
Quistius laughed holding her hand over her mouth before replying "well yes but Squalls kinda taken Rinoa on a date and Irvine and Selphie are away enlisting people to help rebuilt Trabia and Zell well you know what Zells like" she said.
James and zek exchanged glances they understood exactly what she meant "so your alone for now isn't Xu around or something" Zek asked, Quistius smiled "yes but I can't find her I was wondering if you're seen Julia" Quistius asked.
Zek cringed when he remembered Julia storming off after their mistake "Tash he's yours" Zek mouthed to himself then it clicked into place the reason why Julia and Tash were always at each others throats.
"Wow she actually likes me after all" Zek said forgetting anyone was watching, James looked at Zek confused now he was the only one who didn't know, quistois chuckled "you mean to tell me Zek Loire you've just realised they both have feelings for you".
Zek scowled at her "hey that's so unfair how was I supposed to know that, it's not like they openly confessed their love to me!"
Quistius shook her head in dismay "girls don't do that Zek and Julia keeps trying to show it anyway but your too blind to see it almost as bad as Squall was wait...Zek your last names Loire right" Quistius asked clicking to something.
Before zek could answer Hector emerched from the door up the staircase "your conversations loud enough to inform the whole village you know" Hector remarked receiving glares from the two boys and a shrug from quistious
"Hector be nice to your friends I'm sure I taught you better" a woman lectured Hector, Zek and James loved "so this is the mother you're always talking about" Zek remarked slyly, Hector scowled And tried to retort but was stopped by a look from his mother again.
"Please come upstairs Hectors never so rude before and I certainly did not teach him these manners" the woman said again, Zek scoffed "I've seen worse from Hector" James snidely remarked also, Hector groaned "why am I even friends with you two".
Quistius left soon after spotting Squall and Rinoa being pestered by a villager, meanwhile zek and James took a seat in a reasonably large room, as Zek took a seat a white flash went across the room "what the fucks going on is this place haunted or something" Zek blurted out.
Hector smirked evilly as Zek received a stern look from Mrs Jacobs "young man I do not condone swearing or any other offensive language in this household I know your father was like that but you hopefully aren't that bad!" she scolded ,Zek looked horrified at this.
James laughed but received another look of similar standards, Hector actually felt sorry for Zek then after all zek had no idea of who his dad was or the story behind this pub "uh mum he doesn't even know who his father is or who Raine is either" Hector explained.
The women looked at hector and understood, she soon turned back to Zek "my apologies Zek you must be wondering how I knew who you were after all this".
Zek was still taking in the last statement, he had heard enough of this Raine from Mrs Jordan and her husband who had insisted on going on about a girl named Ellone and flowers done by a women called Raine.
Hector could tell Zek was now very confused ,but knew Zek would click to it sooner or later after all it was now common knowledge about the Commander being the son of president Loire, Zek of course had shrugged it off thinking nothing of it.
Zek snapped of his thought when being offered a chocolate biscuit "so let me get this straight my fathers this idiot guy and my mother was this Raine person who used to live here then who is Ellone?" Zek asked now very interested.
"She was adopted by Raine and your Father who's name was Laguna Loire, they then got married and he ran off when soldiers came and kidnapped Ellone" Mrs Jordan explained to Zek.
Zek took all of it in "so this Ellone what happened to her" Zek asked once more, the woman chuckled it was nice that someone was interested "Ellone was saved and got sent back here but Raine died giving birth to twins".
"So I have a brother scarness" Zek said at the thought, Mrs Jacobs nodded knowing exactly what was going to be asked "how come I've never meet him or this Ellone" he asked, the women frowned.
"Well when Raine gave birth there was a slight defect and Squall was born first completely healthy but..." Zek gulped knowing whatever came next wasn't going to be good.
The women continued to speak but sadly this time "when you were born you had a birth defect and had to go to Deljing Hospital everyone thought you died but I seems we were wrong its quite possible you've already met your siblings but they wouldn't have a clue about you I'm sorry to have to tell you this" the women finished explaining.
Zek was speechless he didn't know whether to be angry or upset, Zek knew he was going to be angry sometime soon ,but he wouldn't do that until everyone was gone so no one would ever know".
Zek then decided to hide his actual feeling and faked a smile rather badly "I guess that explains something but hey did you say Squall you don't mean the person I think you're referring too"
Hector nodded knowing exactly what Zek was thinking "yes our oh so great Commander" Hector told him bluntly.
Zek slumped "of all people why him", Mrs Jacobs looked at him sympathetically and asked if he was okay "yeah I'm okay just a bit shocked that's all" Zek lied he now wanted out of here really badly.
Zek looked at his watch and smiled "oh look at the time we better go meet Tash well it was nice to meet you Mrs Jacobs your sons a great friend so uh yeah "Zek said obviously eager to get out of there.
Hector was going to say something but when they were out of the room Zeks fake smile faded into a frown "Zek your not alright are you" Hector asked.
Zek didn't answer but sniffed something "hey there's a strange flower like smell here "Zek remarked, Hector knew why as he had spent most of his childhood here.
Zek and James looked around the room interested, sure he wasn't a fan of flowers but he didn't think scents appearing suddenly like this were a normal thing!
"Hey I found the source of it" Zek said lifting up a lone white flower from underneath an old table, Hector and James however didn't answer and were instead looking at the old counter.
Zek looked to see what was so fascinating "oh shit please be my imagination please be my imagenation" Zek murmured to himself.
They were all staring at a figure behind the counter a woman with brown hair, a yellow headband and yellow sweater looked at them.
(A/N I think that's what she looks like in the game)
Zek was speechless but knew in an instant who it was, the women upstairs had shown him a photo of Raine "uh…." Zek managed to stammer out scared witless, the figure smiled kindly at him gesturing for Zek to come closer.
Hector had gotten over it "wow so it is haunted after all", James glared at him "this isn't the time for that Hector do you have any idea how Zek is feeling right now" James snapped at Hector.
Zek soon regained his voice "uh something tells me I'm supposed to do something but I really don't honestly know what" Zek stated still standing in the same spot.
Hector sighed "she's pointing at you this is your only chance so move you moron" Hector snapped, Zek glared at him and walked forward until he stood at the counter, the women smiled and put something in his hand and then vanished leaving a cat in its place.
(A/N it's based on something that happens during the game I added the necklace thing cause it seemed like a good idea at the time)
Zek picked it up and looked to see a necklace with a lion figure on the end of it , he smiled and held it tight "come on guys lets go find Tash I need to tell her something" Zek said leaving the house with two speechless friends following behind silently.
And that's where I'll end it mwa ha ha I'm so evil I'm so evil believe it or not half of this was written in school during my free periods.
