A Heros Sacrafice (part 1):
A sacrafice of love

By: Derek Armstrong



Chapter 1: A Sacrafice of Love

	The fight with Ultimecia was drawing near the end. Squall and the rest of his party was damaged pretty bad 
by Ultimecias last attack. Ultimecia was pretty banged up aswell, but had enough MP left to use a final attack to 
finish off Squall and the rest of the gang.

	"What now Squall?" asked Zell. "Is this how it's gonna end?

	"No," replied Squall, "we can do this. Zell, do u have enough energy left to pull off MY FINALE HEAVEN?"

	"Yea," answered Zell.

	"Good, Rinoa can u pull off at least one last ANGLE WING?"

	"I believe," said Rinoa, curiously wondering what Squall had in mind.

	"Here is what were gonna do, Zell i want you to take and attack her with your special attack, then Rinoa, 
I want you to attack her with one last ANGLE WING, then thats where I come into play. I will then use Kamakazi and 
sacrafice my self to take Ultimecia with me."

	"NOOO!!!" screamed Rinoa as she began to cry. "You can't do this, I love you."

	"I know, but i gotta do this for the sake of you and the rest of the world," Squall said dissapointingly. 
" I love you and I promise I will be there, waiting for you"

	At that time Ultimecia was working up for a new attack only a sorccerress could use UNHOLY HELL. This attack 
sent off waves of thundaga, ultima, bio, and blizzaga. 

	"NOW!!!!!" yelled Squall and at that time Zell leaped into the air and used MY FINALE HEAVEN on Ultimecia 
followed by Rinoa with tears in her eyes as she used ANGLE WING. Ultimecias attack was cancled do to the attack. "I 
love you," said one last time to Rinoa as ran towards Ultimecia.

	A bizzare arora of yellow seemed to shield Squall as he ran twords Ultimecia. She then began glowing aswell 
and Squall leaped inside her and sacraficed his life. Ultimecia then exploed into millions of unseeable peaces.

	"No, I, I, I can't beleave it, he's gone, my one and only." Rinoa Said saddly and then broke down into tears.

	"It ok," Zell said as he came to her and held her close to him. "He had to do it, it was the only way and I'm 
sure he wants you to know that he still loves you."

Chaprer 2: Shocking news

	As Rinoa, Zell, Quist, Irvine, and Selphie returned to garden they was an up roar and the entire Balamb Garden 
members their to greet them. "Well done, I'm glad to see that you have returned in one peace and I'm sure that you are 
tired from your fight." said Cid with a smile on his face. "Where is Squall at."

	At that time the entire groups head fell at the same time. "He didn't make it back," answered Rinoa. "He used 
Kamakazi to defeat Ultimecia after mine and Zells special attacks. I tried not to let him do it but he refused not to."

	"My dear, I'm sorry to hear this news," said Cid in shock. "We shall have a memorial service to honnor him for 
his coragous sacrafice. You all may have the rest of the time off that you need to recover from this tradgic loss of a 
friend. As for the rest of you, back to your duties."

	"Well, what now?" asked Zell. "Ultimecia is dead, we lost Squall for ever, and we saved the world."

	"I guess try to go back to our normal lives and continue our job as SeeD," replied Quistis.

	"I don't know, I mean look what has happend," said Rinoa with disapointmenat on her face. "I find out I'm a 
sorcceress, I leave and rebelled against my father, and I loose my one and only love at the age of seven-teen. I don't 
beleave their is anything left for me to do."

	"It's not your fault," said Selphie,"He done what he had to to save us and the rest of our world. I'm sure he's 
still with you in some way, some how."


Chapter 3: Memorial Service


	"We are gathered here today," announced Cid, standing be side his wife, Edea, "to remember a unique and out 
standing soldier of our own, Squall Leonheart. This soldier was a very close friend of mine and may have been a friend 
of yours as well. If not for his sacrafice of his life he, we may have been under the controll of a sorcceress or worse. 
We will forever and always remember our own beloved soldier and once proud leader, Squall Leonheart."

	At this time Rinoa broke down into tears as she fell to her knees. Zell, Irvine, Selphie, and Quistis all began 
to surround her and help her to her feet. They tried their best to calm her down as much as possible. "Why? Why did you 
have to leave me this soon in life? Why couldn't you have stayed by my side." Rinoa said silently in her head as tears 
continued to run down her face.

	"Please file out in one last line to pay your last respects," announced Edea. And one by one the entire garden 
began walking by a statue of Squall, and began laying down red roses of theirs. By time it got down to Rinoa and Selphie, 
the rest of the garden was gone except for them. Selphie laid down one last red rose, then walked a few feat and waited for 
Rinoa to pay her last respects.

	As Rinoa approached the statue, she laid the one and only white rose down on the pile of red roses and began to 
talk to Squall, hopeing he could hear her. "Squall, I will go on to live my life and never for get you. No matter what 
happens, I will always love you and only you. I wish i could see you one last time and tell you how I feal about you. I 
will miss you so much and I want to thank you for everything that you have tought me. I will never forgett the moment you 
leaped out into space for me, or the promise we made at the orphanage that cool breezy day. 'I will be waiting for you 
there, I promise' you said to me, and now I will be there waiting for you. 'No matter where you are, I will come running' 
and now I will come running for you from now on."

	Rinoa raised up to leave, and as she raised up and turned to Selphie she began to walk away. They walked for 
about ten yards and then she felt a hand on her shoulder, so she froze as Selphie continued walking not realizeing that 
Rinoa had stopped. "I will be there waiting for you," Rinoa heard as a familiar voice whispered to her. The touch of a hand 
had releaved itself from her and she waited a few seconds and then turned. At that moment, the tears from her eyes stopped, 
and she began to smile, for she saw Squall about fifty feet away with Raine as they were smileing at her. They turned and 
walked away and slowly vanished into thin air.

	"Rinoa, what's wronge?" asked Selphie worried.

	"Nothing. Nothing at all. I just know that I'm being watched from now and till forever." said Rinoa. She turned and 
started wallking awat with Selphie by her side.
