And so here we are, at the actual end. This is it. And who better to sign us off than Yuffie?

Squall's pov of this scene is in 'Fragments of Memories' chapter 'Never Look Back'. Yuffie calling Squall 'Commander' is explained in 'Silence and Motion' chapter 'Commander'.

Disclaimer: SquareEnix owns the recognisable bits.

Yuffie.

Investigation: a searching inquiry for ascertaining facts; detailed or careful examination.

She didn't know who'd brought the video camera to the party, but she couldn't let such an opportunity go begging…

…so she 'borrowed' it.

Plenty of blackmail mat… information to be gathered.

For instance, the fact that Cloud was blushing slightly…

…as was Tifa…

…whilst the pair of them stood particularly close together…

A bit of prying… investigation revealed them to be holding hands.

Score one for Yuffie!

A moment or two's reflection made her realise that Leon… sorry Squall wasn't in the immediate vicinity.

He was, however, on a balcony, watching the party unfold.

'Yoo-hoo, Commander!' Typically, her shout and vigorous waving met with no response.

What interested her most was the fact that he was not alone.

It was simple work for an active ninja to climb over the rooftops to the balcony.

She arrived just in time to catch the kiss.

Oh yes, Squall kissing.

K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

She couldn't contain her glee…

'Perfect blackmail material, nyuk, nyuk, nyuk!!!' Aware that she'd blown her cover, she made a run for it.

Reaching the ground, she hit the playback button and smiled.

She was really glad that Rinoa had returned.

She had a feeling that there'd be plenty more opportunities like this in the future.

Now... if she could just figure out where Aerith had got to...

So guys, I just want to say thanks to everyone who stuck with this, despite me abandoning it for about 6 months.
