Welcome to Gaia! ::

Squall too gazed into her creamy light brown eyes and gave her a nice warm hug in return. "Hmm... I'm not sure. That's a good question. Almost everyone is gone now. Where do you think we should go? There's not much to do around here in Balamb Garden.. Maybe we should drive this thing to another place?" asked Squall as Rinoa latched onto his arm, smiling inside as she did.

"Kadaj and his big sister decided to throw a party...I'm gonna try and get the Garden to go to Midgar, wanna tag along?" she hugged Kaia a little closer, when she started to stir."By the way, did you see if the chocos got out? I don't want to leave them behind if they're still around." She kicked over the remains of a chair and found her conformer, which she carefully knelt to pick up.

Nanaki shook his head with a faint sigh. "Kadaj..Why on earth would he be returned.." He paused a moment, before answering her question. "No, they are still in the stable. I believe Aerith and another women are inside Balamb Garden as well. Where is Sephiroth? Will he be joining? And yes. Of course I will come. " He had no reason to stay here, he would much rather stay with his friends.


Elena decided quickly grabbed a book from her pocket and unclipped a tiny pen from it. She wrote ~ "Cloud, Everyone is in Midgar. Please come join us.." ~. And set it on a table, placeing a heavy piece of wood that was broken from other chairs onto it to hold it in place. "There. Incase Spikey ever comes back. "

"Cloud and Zack...at least someone knows where Aerith is! I think that spikey-headed jerk has really lost it! If he had been here, then..." Her eyes when to the girl in her arms. The massive bloodstains on her daughter's clothing were more than disturbing, they were terrifying! Her little girl soaked in her own blood...and Yuffie hadn't been able to do a thing... And Sephirea was missing! Was there anything that would be alright that day?

"Hmm... I see... That man? Who is he? Is he another guy that assisted you with that fight?" Squall asked Rinoa as they stopped to think about it. "Sure, I don't see why not? But I'm curious as of who he is... What did he do?"

Meanwhile, the man in red walked out of the Wutai Village entrance and noticed a strange giant blue flying structure floating nearby the ocean shore. Hmph... This must be interesting... I think I'll have a look see... he thought to himself as Auron took his deafening boot steps towards the Garden.

Squall listened intently as he heard every piece of Rinoa's words. It sounded like an interesting guy he would like to meet. His fascination with the sword being bigger than his Lionheart was pretty much unimaginable due to the sheer size, width, and length. However, with this new guy into the fray, he wondered just how good this guy would be with the giant sword he carried. Squall was also interested in his personality, as he seemed to be a intriguing swordsman for him to see. In fact, it almost sounded eerily similar to himself... However, as soon as Rinoa abruptly stopped talking and shouting, his attention quickly turned to the man she was pointing at. The man with the broad shoulders and heavy gear/sword approached the two, looking at Rinoa when he stopped. "It's you again. Thank you for the Elixir you gave me earlier. It's quite an unexpected time to meet you in such a strange place." Auron said in a gruffy voice. His attention turned back to Squall. "And I suppose you must be her acquaintance?"

"No, I'm her boyfriend. Her name's Rinoa." Squall replied. "It's nice to meet you."

"Likewise. What are you two doing here? Is this your place of residence?"

Auron chuckled as Rinoa called him the Red Cloaked Man. This was new to him, as he never really met a woman with such lightness and humor before. The intriguing pair also reminded him of Tidus and Yuna a while back. It's been a long time since he last saw them so this was a refreshing change of pace. "It's fine. You don't need to worry. I'm strong enough to handle things on my own. My name is Auron. Pleased to meet you both..." As he finished talking, he saw Fujin walking towards Squall and Rinoa, with her tapping him on the shoulder and speaking in a rather militant and commanding voice. Squall moved his head back to his shoulder and saw her with look of shock on his face. "Fujin? Where have you been?? Seifer? No... I don't think I've seen him. I'm not sure Rinoa did either..." he replied.

"Seifer? What does he look like? I think I might have an idea of who he is..." Auron interrupted while looking at Fujin.
