Thank you for reading. *Ok, we're continuing from when Rinoa saw Squall's reflection in her orange juice, and when she turned around he was gone, just in case you forgot* "Hmm, I could have sworn I saw that guy I met last night......HEY! I didn't even get his name. Maybe he's shy. Well, we'll find out today I suppose...." So, Rinoa spoke with the Headmaster. She asked him if he would allow a "select few" SeeD's to help her with a mission. *No folks, my missions aren't the same as the ones in the actual game* He said he would let her. I wonder what this mission is? Squall awoke from his sleep after that last dream. He seemed very cranky. He really didn't get any sleep at all......I don't think he'll be awake at all today. The loud speakers from the hallway announced a message, terrifying Squall. "ATTENTION, SQUALL LEONHART, ZELL DINCHT, SEIFER ALMASSY, AND SELPHIE TILMITT, PLEASE REPORT TO THE HEADMASTER'S OFFICE IMMEADIATELY FOR AN URGENT MISSION. THAT IS ALL" Squall slowly got up off his bed. But he turned back around to look at it, and he imagined Rinoa there, looking at him with "bedroom eyes". He quickly jumped on his bed, but his head hit his dresser beside his bed. His head was throbbing when he recovered. "OWWWW OW OW OWWWWWWWWW! Stupid %&%$**#@!!" "Rinoa, Rinoa, I'M COMING!" Squall opened the dormitory door and ran out to the cafeteria where he last saw her. But, he was half-naked. Everyone laughed at him, running to the cafeteria. Squall was delusional. Then he realized what he was supposed to do, and ran back to his dorm. Red as a tomato, he put on his clothes and went to the headmaster's office. So, everyone greeted Squall as he walked in the office. Rinoa wasn't there, and so Squall was a little disappointed. "Ah, Squall. Ok, now that everyone's here, here's your mission: You're all going to Deling City to exterminate a Sorceress. You will be taking a train there, and a young lady wearing a BLUE dress will be waiting for you at the train station. She will explain everything else there. Now, get to Balamb and catch the train to Deling. Your train is leaving in 30 minutes. Now, get going" said the Headmaster. "Hey, hey! We just became SeeD's, and you're already making us go after a sorceress, what the hell is up with you?" yelled Seifer. "Do all the other SeeD's have something stuck up so far in their ass that they can't go?!!?" "Seifer, don't yell at the headmaster just cuz you're scared of fighting a sorceress you chickenwuss" said Zell in a low voice. "What was that? Did you say something, punk?!?" "Naw, naw. Course not. Where'd you get an idea like that, huh?" said Zell. "phew......that was close" Zell thought to himself. "That's what I thought" said Seifer. "CAN WE GO NOW?" yelled Selphie, anxiously. Everyone was at the train station. Everyone was normal except for Squall. He couldn't get to sleep, but he was daydreaming about Rinoa. "Hey, Squall, are you ok? Your eyes look heavy and you have a large red bump on your head......" asked Selphie. "Oh, you just don't know how much pain I'm in right now......if only you knew." complained Squall. Zell was on the other side of the room, asleep. "Zzzzzz....zzz.....zzzzzz.....huh? what'd you say, bitch? ......my momma what?" Zell then woke up with everyone staring at him in confusion. Apparently Zell didn't get too much sleep either. After a few hours, they finally got to Deling City. Rinoa greeted them all when they got off the train. Her eyes sparkled when she saw Squall, but she didn't make it seem so obvious. "Hey guys. You're probably wondering why I called you four here. I'll tell you when we get to the base. But first, we're going to the restrooms. Images and thought swirled through Squall's head of why they were going to the restrooms first. "Maybe she wants to share her feelings about me.....but why in a bathroom? Maybe when we go to sleep, she'll try something......I hope......NOT! Man! I hate girls! What in the HELL IS WRONG WITH ME?!?!", Squall thought to himself. Squall was daydreaming and staying in one place when everyone else was almost a half-mile away. "HEY SQUALL, LET'S GO!", yelled Rinoa. Squall woke up and ran towards the others. They got to the restrooms and Rinoa gave each of them costumes. Then Rinoa got her's out of a large backpack and they each entered a stall to put on the costumes. "Costumes? What the hell?", asked Zell. "Just put the damn thing on", yelled Rinoa. So, they got done and exited the restrooms. "Ok guys, now we're going to the base. And if I don't make it for some odd, odd reason, the password is.....*a large truck came by so you couldn't hear the password* Everyone agreed and they continued on. Seifer's costume was a bit weird. It was all black, and there were belts and chains almost all over him. His gunblade was camouflaged with the costume. Selphie's costume was like an army uniform. She had brown hiking boots that were very large for her tiny feet. Her nunchakus were in a false bottom of her helmet. She looked just like a man, but no one told her that. Zell's costume was dark blue, and he was already wearing his brass knuckled underneath the gloves he was wearing to not cause any suspicion. It was really just a dark blue jumpsuit and he was wearing his regular shoes so he could still run around. Squall's outfit was a gray jacket with black Kanji writing on it. He was wearing dark blue jeans with black shoes like Seifer's. Rinoa's costume was really only a white tank top, and a SHORT almost transparent mini-skirt. I wonder why she would wear something like that? They finally arrived at the base. Rinoa said the password and everyone entered. No one was paying attention to the password. When they entered, Laguna, Kiros and Ward greeted them warmly. Ward was mindlessly staring at Rinoa's skirt.....like you didn't see that coming. Selphie then asked, "Rinoa, why are we wearing these funny costumes?" "We're wearing them so no one recognizes us. We have to sneak in Edea's tower to get her. But we can't reveal our identities, especially yours. If anyone ever found out SeeD's were trying to kill the sorceress, you'd probably be sent to prison", explained Rinoa. That made everyone a little more conscientious about their work. Rinoa showed them around and everyone got to take off their costumes. "AHH! Finally! Those boots were murder on my feet!", said Selphie so relieved. "OOH! BED!" Selphie then jumped on the best bed she saw and claimed it hers. "Umm, yeah so, everyone pick a room, get outta those costumes and get some sleep. We got a long day ahead of us tomorrow. "Finally, sleep......zzzzzzzzzzzz........" Zell collapsed on his bed and quickly fell asleep. Everyone picked a room, closed their doors, and went to sleep. Except for Squall. He just couldn't sleep. Then, Rinoa entered the room with her costume still on. "You mind if I join you?" asked Rinoa. "........no, no I don't mind at all....." mumbled Squall. "Hey, umm, when we were at the dance, I didn't get your name. But I know now I guess. Squall, right?" "Yeah, that's right." Squall lay in the bed and Rinoa sat on the bed right next to him. Squall was getting nervous. He wanted to just lean over and just kiss her, so he did just that. He leaned over, and.......... You'll have to wait for the next chapter to find out what happened!!!!
