Chapter 1

By Rinoa_is_an_Angel

It was dark and cold at Balamb Garden that night. A dark figure was walking slowly up towards 
the gate towards the entrance. She stopped and looked at the gate; how tall it was. About 2 
metres in height. 

" I’ll never be able to get up there…"

Suddenly she remembered her powers; the ones she received from an all-powerful sorceress, Edea. 
Then she took powers from an even more powerful sorceress, Adel. And finally, she squeezed the 
powers out of Ultimecia. So guess how strong she was now?

" Here goes nothing…"

She jumped into the air, and managed to grab a hold of a piece of metal at the top of the gate. 
She pulled herself up and over, forgetting about the 2-metre fall.

" Uh oh…"

SMASH.

" Oww…"

She managed to pick herself up quietly, and ran over to a small hedge. She looked onto the 
courtyard of Balamb Garden. Then up the stairs to the front gate. A SeeD was patrolling the 
courtyard, looking absent – mindedly around.

" Oh well. Got nothing to lose but my life…"

She crawled past the hedge to the first set of steps, and she slithered down them silently. 

" Hey!" Yelled the SeeD, " Who is there?"

The girl thought she should show herself, them do away with the meaningless guard. She stood up, 
and walked over to the guard, who instantly forgot he was a guard.

" Well, if it isn’t my lucky night."

" Why would that be?" She asked.

The guard walked up to her.

" It’s the girl of my dreams." He said.

The girl’s face paled as the guard took her hands and kissed her.

The girl’s mind raced as she thought of the perfect spell. Instantly, the guard’s neck broke, 
sending him spiralling into the fountain. Just to make sure he was dead, she pulled out a Fuma 
and sliced his throat. 

"Easier than pie." She smirked.

The girl continued on, where she came across two guards, both armed. She walked into the 
clearing. The guards were stationed by the gate, which was locked.

" Whaddya think you’re doing?" The first guard asked.

" I want to get through." 

" Not without a pass, and besides, it’s after curfew."

" Oh well. I guess I can’t show you my hidden features." The girl said.

" What features might these be?" Said the first guard.

The girl walked over to him, her boots making almost no sound on the path. She pushed him on 
the ground and sat on him.

" Please let me in?" She asked, fingering the buttons to her top.

The other guard had come over to see what was going on. 

The girl flung her top off and pressed her body closer to the guards.

" Will you let me in?" She whispered.

" I can’t." He said. He sat up; taking the girl by surprise. He turned her over and lay her 
on the ground. He cuffed her hands and legs so she couldn’t escape.

Suddenly, with all her strength, she lifted her legs and kicked the guard in the balls. Both 
guards could feel the pain as the girl ran on ahead. She walked up to the directory of Balamb
Garden and looked at it. Then she heard a gun being loaded. She turned around to see someone 
she thought she would never see again; Irvine. The two stared into each others eyes for a 
moment.

" Rinoa!" Irvine said, lowering his gun, then raising it again.

" What?" She asked, getting ready to eliminate him if needs be.

" Mist. Here now."

A young girl walked up to Irvine.

" Yes?" She asked, fixing an icy glare on Rinoa.

" Get the commander…NOW!"

There was silence in the conference room. Rinoa sat on a seat, her hands cuffed up behind her. 

Squall was pacing the room, stopping every so often to glare at his soon to be ex girlfriend if 
she didn’t say something.

" Why’d you sneak in here? HUH?"

He walked over to her, and slapped her. That got her out of her trance.

" Wha?" She said, blinking because of the light.

" Why’d you break in here?" Squall demanded again.

" What do you mean?" She asked, oblivious to what was going on.

Squall stopped pacing the room; as if he just noticed why she didn’t know what was going on.

" Did you break in here?"

" …No."

" Did you break a guards neck, then slice his throat?’

" …No!"

" Did you seduce a guard?"

" …NO!"

" Then… what did you do?"

" … I was sitting in my room, in Deling City."

" …Yes? And?"

" … I passed out…"

‘ …And?"

" Ended up here…" 

"With…?"

"…my boyfriend yelling at me for no apparent reason."

Squall was ashamed at his blindness. Rinoa had obviously been possessed, but by whom he did not 
know. As all of the sorceresses he could think of, apart from Rinoa, had been dealt to in one 
way or another.

" …Oh. I see."

Squall closed the door to his room. Rinoa was inside, resting. He apologised for his ignorance 
and all, then let her rest.

" I’m so glad I sorted that."

He walked down the hallway to the training centre. He held his gunblade closer than usual, as he 
took note at yesterdays conference that new beasts were breeding. He came to the green lined 
corridor that led to hell, and walked in. 

Well, Squall thought to himself, hell isn’t this bad…

And that’s when he got attacked by a Blue Dragon…
