~* It's been months since their last encounter in Midgar City... Squall, Laguna, and Kiros were all stationed in the middle of nowhere, riding the Ragnarok in the skies in search for the lightly blue dressed heroine sorceress. Squall was pacing back and forth around the control panel while Laguna and Kiros were maneuvering the ship. The memories of Squall & Rinoa surfaced within his mind, with the two of them fighting against the aggressive non-stop Propagators roaming around the aircraft until they finally found a clue as of how to get to the main control room. The scene afterwards was something that he could never forget, and struck a chord deep within his gut. He just had to get back to Rinoa, no matter what the cost. Deep down, he loved her so much that he was willing to defend her against the entire world if that's what it took. And still to this day, he has never forgotten... The journey and the memories between the two of them remains within him always until after death. This is his only lifetime that he will ever get a chance to see Rinoa again, and he wasn't about to let her go... ~*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Laguna and Kiros looked back at the sulking hero wandering about the hardened tile floors as the sounds kept repeating itself over and over again with each step he took.
"Are you okay Squall? You seem to be in a depressed mood..." asked Kiros. It wasn't like him to be this way... he thought. The amount of care and love he has for Rinoa is astounding... Laguna heard Kiros' inquiry and agreed, simply nodding his head. "She will be fine Squall, I know it. If she's the sorceress, no doubt she will be able to handle anything that comes along. It's no big feat but she's got the powers!" chipped the headmaster of the ship.
Squall barely heard the audible sounds coming into his ears and suddenly looked at the two concerned figures staring at him. He frowned at them with a solemn look on his face. "I'm fine, don't worry about me. Besides, it's not me you should worry about... It's Rinoa. She could be in danger for all we know... I have to find her, no matter what! I can't bear to see her get hurt again like last time..." Squall's body winced slightly as the mere thought of Rinoa being hurt surfaced his mind. He couldn't bear the sight of it, despite the fact that he didn't show his emotions towards the others. But at this point he didn't care. It was the only thing on his mind right now and he was determined to find her.
Laguna and Kiros simply looked at each other and nodded. Kiros glanced back to Squall and responded. "Alright, we'll find her. I promise."
"Hey! Look!" Laguna jumped out of his seat and pressed his hands to the glass as he saw Balamb Garden with all it's herald-like beauty and glory, close to an Island that they barely knew of. "Squall, Kiros, it's right there! Move left and land on the water, quickly!"
Squall's heart lept in joy as he saw Balmb Garden floating nearby. He was hoping to find Rinoa there and soon. Kiros banked left heavily as everybody held onto a rail. The airship landed softly and smoothly onto the surface of the tranquil waters. Kiros' head moved sharply towards Squall and gave him the go. Squall nodded and quickly got out of the Ragnarok and sped his way towards the garden.
Rinoa... I hope you're there...

Kaether eyed the suspicious stick with curiosity. What was supposed to happen when it was lit? Her thoughts where washed away when the sky was suddenly filled with blooms of colored flames. She jumped back in surprise, nearly calling her weapon,"What...?" They were captivating, burning bits of...something...She sat down with the feline wolves, just watching...she had never seen anything like it...

(( Bye Holy. ^^ And welcome back D4rkLink! Woo-whoo! ))
Inside Balamb Garden, Only a few students had been standing around, or heading to the many area's of the massive Garden.Some where still inside the village of Wutai, or sleeping at the Inns. So it wasn't quite as busy inside.
Meanwhile, at the controls with the two who stirred the Balamb Garden was that ever so familiar girl in the soft blue outfit. "What do we have left? I almost feel as though we have looked everywhere! "
Rinoa sighed heavily. They're journey was not turning out so well. It had been so many months, months that to her seemed like an eternity. Just what was going on in the world, for such strange things to happen. "We have to keep searching..Please don't give up.." The women finally turned away, walking out of the control room and heading her way back down to the elevator to go to the main level. She didn't know what to do anymore. Anytime they had found a place, they would keep Balamb Garden there and search, and wait. It was always the same, though. He was never there.
Almost the moment Rinoa had gone into the elevator, the two women looked out from the glass,even in darkness, the massive red dragon-like airship could stand out. There eyes wide in shock. "Is that the...Ragnarok?!!"
Oblivious to what was going on, lost in her own thoughts, The elevator stopped and the doors opened.The young girl clad in blue walked out slowly, her eyes to the ground as she just didn't seem to be paying attention to her surroundings.She couldn't remember ever being so depressed.

Nanaki merely chuckled softly at Kaether's reaction towards the explosions of color. She would earlier of explained, but he would rather of had the women see them in person. "What do you think?"
Sephriea on the other hand, nearly lost her grip on the tree when the explosions rang out, only to replace the sky with many little colorful speckles gleaming brightly in the darkened sky's. "Wow..."
Lucrecia blinked, a little surprised he could see through her so well. "I'm sorry..I just can't help but worry about Cloud and Aerith." She looked away the moment they went off, maybe all the noise would keep her thoughts from trailing away. She didn't just worry about the past, or Vincent and Sephiroth, She worried about others too.

(( Haha w00t! biggrin ^^ ))
Please... Please let Rinoa be there... pleaded Squall as he sprinted towards the Garden's entrance. It was the same as it always was... he thought to himself. Relieved that the structure was in such perfect shape, he now had to find his beloved. With that in mind, he ran straight to the directory close to the main hall. His body immediately stopped as he saw a faint blue colored dress in the far distance, eyes widened and shouted to the figure.
"Rinoa! Rinoa are you there?!"
Squall resumed running to the central hall, hoping she will be alright...

Kaia grabbed onto her sister to make sure she wouldn't fall,"Pretty, huh?"
"I don't know what to think...Its beautiful, and frightening..." she reached out as if to touch the sky flames, though from her seat, it would be like trying to grab the moon,"I...I like them...."

The young women in blue slowly walked her way down the stairs,The only sounds were that of her boots in each step she took.Her thoughts were so overtaken, that she could of sworn she heard someone calling out to her, not just anyone, but Squalls voice. ~"Now I can hear him..."~ She thought in her mind, it was as though it was trying to torment her with the voice she so longed to hear again.
She heard it again. This causing her to look ahead toward the directory where she seemed to hear it coming from.Her deep brown eyes widened as she saw the dark clad figure.
"Squall?!"
That short leather jacket with the soft trim around the collar, white shirt, and leather belted pants, it all stood out.Before she knew it, she herself was practically running down the stairs to get to him.

Sephriea giggled a little at her clumsiness. Though it wasn't as though she had ever seen fireworks before,much like Kaether.She decided to hop down from her tree for now, in case there were anymore surprises she didn't know of. "Yes!"
"I had thought you would. Personally.." His voice lowers, he didn't want people to think he had gone to soft. "I think they are fascinating.."

Squall glanced out into the distance as he saw Rinoa speeding towards him. Rinoa! he shouted again. When they finally reached each other, he held her by the waist and put his head close to hers and whispered to her ear.
Never again. Never again...
Squall held her tightly as he remincised the days of past, how the two of them have repeatedly separated and reunited. Now, once again, the hero and heroine have returned, after months of waiting. The burden of separation between them was too hard to bear. He has longed to be by her side and now he's finally here...
His head pulled back slightly and gazed into her eyes... The ice cold blue color in his eyes has taken a new glow upon this sight.
I've been waiting for you... Finally, after 3 months of waiting... And now I'm finally here..."
Squall's eyes continued gazing at hers while smiling, knowing that she too was glad to see him.

Kaia hopped down with her sister to watch too. She kind of wished that she could be closer, though the display would be able to been seem by pretty much the whole village. Even so, he wanted to be able to touch the fireworks...though she knew better than that...
Kaether leaned against Nanaki slightly, scratching behind his ears,"They are fascinating... how do they work? What makes them different colors? What do they mean?"
Meanwhile, Yuffie cuddled with her husband. She was glad he was there, even if Cloud didn't like him. Honestly, the had been terrified at first as well... but after getting to know him... She looked over at Kaia and Sephirea with a smile.

The moment the two were reunited, her arms were wrapped around him, holding him in a tight, yet gentle embrace. Closing her eyes, the heroine sorceress took the moment in,savoring it as though it wouldn't last. She was afraid it was all but a dream, she would wake up again,alone and continue her search.
Rinoa knew as much as her mind was telling her it was just a dream, it wasn't. His scent, the way he held her, She had always felt so safe around him, as he once said to her, He would be her Knight, It was true. Every time she was with him she had her knight right at her side.
Rinoa's deep brown eyes gazed into his own icy blue ones.
"Squall..I'm so happy!" She hugged him a little tighter to herself, just not wanting to let go.That gentle smile Rinoa almost always wore appearing once again.Her cheerful, spirited attitude returning after so long. "Welcome home..Squall!"

"I kinda wish we cold go back to that Garden..They have that really big balcony we could of watched from.." She wondered at the thought, maybe they could go? Everyone knew it wasn't a dangerous place by now! "Do you think we could go watch from there?"
Nanaki couldn't help the soft purring that escaped as she scratched behind his ears.The usually calm and quiet feline was strangely content around the women. His one eye watching the bright colorful explosions of multi-colors, shapes and all the different sizes. "They are a symbol of celebrations. Though they can be for just a relaxing nights.. Such as this one. As to how they work, They are filled with different elements in which make them different colors. "

Squall nodded. "Thank you... It has been a long time since I was here... Where are the others? What have you been doing since we last part? And are you okay? Did anybody hurt you?" asked Squall as he took a step back and observed her body for any wounds. He suddenly realized that he was questioning her too much and knew that he shouldn't worry. He was there by her side and she would never get hurt, not when Squall was by her side... But still, something inside him was concerned about her overall well-being regardless if she was hurt or not. This he knew...

Kaia looked surprised,"After we got in so much trouble last time? Nuh uh... I won't follow you this time..."
Kaether watched the explosions as Nanaki explained,"Have you seen a lot of fireworks?"
((We're gonna have to wait for Holy, eventually...))
