Ch1. The arrival
Discalimer I don't own FF8 and I'm not making money off this.
**************************************************************************** **** The trains at Balamb whistled back and forth daily..but on this day.. thewy dropped of a young man who was special....He was sent to train at the Balamb Garden by none other than Cid and Edea Cramer them-selves. But as he dis-mounted from the trains and walked throught he crouds of talking people..he seemed different from the other passers-by in the station. As the smoke and Steam cleared..He saw the escort he had been told to await was not there. His features became clearer.
To the passers-by..he had an aura that seemed to say stay away. Not a visual aura...but one that you felt with your gut instict. At 5' 6" and with short black hair and golden eyes hidden by sun-glasses..He had a be- littling effect on those around him. His large brown leather Jacket, rugged blue-jeans, and silver belt added to the look. He stopped at the shop, and picked up some potions as well as several cases of soda and some elixers. next he went to the Weapon shop and picked up the coustom weapon he had ordered a few weeks earlier. After paying the manager, he inquired the direction to Balamb Garden.
"You just follow the Road around the corner and out of town. Stay on the road and you can't miss it. I'd recomend taking a car for safety..There have been T-rexaurs running around lately."
"That a fact?"
"Yes it is."
"Good.....I could use a nice fight." The young man tipped the manager for the information, readied his weapon...A black Gunblade with a Silver stripe running the length of the blade...and then set off for Garden. As he past a forest..He heard a roar. He was about to dismiss it and continue..when he heard a Female scream in terror.
He rushed into the Forest to discover a young SeeD cadet(recognizable by her uniform) cowering from a large T-Rexaur. The Gunblader estimated it was around level 15 and shouldn't be much of a problem. He cast Triple on himself..then Protect on both himself and the girl. The T-Rexaur Attacked him..but missed. The gunbladers triple Blizzara attack didn't miss..nor did his attack as he charged forward and slashed the monster.
The T-Rexaur roared with anger, and charged forward. This time...it's aim was dead on. The Gunblader hunched over..his HP getting low.
He felt his Limit drawing near and charged the attack. As the Aura came up around him, He shouted "Run the Gauntlet!" He charged forward and slashed horizontally at the monster, but then he disapeared. He reapeared above the monster with his blade turned down..as he fell he cut the beast again. He disappeared right before impact and appeared to the left. He flew right and cut the beast again. He continued to disapear and reappear 4 more times. Before he appeared one final time and slashed down from above his head. He jumped back into place as the T-rexaur let out one final roar and died.
"Humph....Peice of cake." he said, after his signature move was completed adn his gunblade was replaced in its holsted across his back. He knew that few Gunbladers wore thier weapons that way..but he was different from them.
He turned to the girl. "You okay?"
The girl seemed to be in shock, but she managed to nod and look at him in shock. "T-t-t-th-th-th"
"That?"
"T-that, was a T-rexaur." She said.
"Yes..and you shouldn't be out here alone."
The girl looked down and said quietly "......I gots losted."
"Well..it looks like your from Garden." She nodded. "I'm headed there....and it looks like Your gonna be taggin' along with me cause I'm not leaving you out here alone."
The girl nodded again. She stood up and the Blader got a goot look at her for the first time. She was about 4' 10", and looked about 9 or 10. Her silver hair and red eyes seemed haunting. She wore a grey shirt and blue skirt. "You got a name missy?" The fighter inquired.
"My name is Lisa...and I'm not a missy."
"Well Lisa....." He said, "My name is Josh. and we had better hurry back to Garden." Lisa nodded. and both of them remained Silent on the way to Garden. The scent of T-rexaur on Josh's Gunblade was enough to keep monters at bay, so they made it there in very little time. "Here we are." Josh said as they reached the front gate of the Garden.
Josh walked with Lisa in silence up to the Directory in the main hall and looked around. ".......Um.......uh.....Where's the Head master's office?"
"3rd Floor."
Suddenly Josh heard a voice. "LISA??? LISA!?!?!? LISA!!!! THERE YOU ARE!!!" He looked up to see three teenagers running toward them.
"Uh-oh....I think I'm in trouble." Lisa said..trying to hide behind Josh.
"Nuh-uh...You were outside on your own...Your taking the blame." Josh said. He had no idea how wrong he was.
"Lisa!" The front most runner said..reaching them. He had blonde hair, and was wearing a long duster-trench-coat. He stooped down to lisa's level..saw the dirt and blood on her clothes and lost it. "What did you do to Lisa you Jerk???????"
Before Josh could explain, the young man's fist colided with his jaw, busting his lip and rattling his teeth. Then the other fist came up and smashed his nose. By this time the fighters friends had arrived and were pulling him back. He got in one good kick to Josh's knee before the two pulled him all the way back. His friends were a male and a young lady who resembled Lisa..only older and with an eye-patch. The man was very tan and spoke with an accent. He wore a vest and loose pants.
They tried to calm him down...but Josh's anger was rising. He lifted a hand to his face..saw blood on his hands and stood up. "You stupid Jerk." Josh Reached back and pulled out his Gunblade. He placed a hand to it then shot the palm of it forward. "Pain." The other fighter was helpless to use spells, and Josh pulled back to use his Limit break.
"Noo! Don't!! Wait!!!!" Lisa jumped in between Josh and the three friends. "Josh...These are my friends...Their just worried about me."
"That one attacked me. They may be your friends, but he's my enemy..now move out of my way." He said..first pinting to the other fighter then poising himself for his limit.
"He didn't know....please give me a chance to explain first." Lisa pleaded.
Josh didn't want to hurt her after saving her, so he agreed. "You have two minutes to talk to them...but if he tries it again.....you'd better not get in the way."
"Thanks Josh." Lisa turned to teh other thre and explained that she had wondered out on her own, and that Josh had saved her from a T-Rexaur. That changed things rather quickly, and in less than a minute and a half, the young fighter, named Seifer, had apologized and introduced his friends as Fujin(the girl) and Raijin(the guy).
Josh accepted the apology, and after checking to make sure Lisa was okay..he said he needed to go check in with the infermary. He turned right and started down the hall.
Fujin called after him. "JOSH. WRONG."
"Yeah, The Infermary in this way. Ya' know." Raijin called.
Josh changed direction and hobbled the other way. As he past them, Seifer asked why he was going to the infermary. "The T-rexaur didn't hurt her...but I wasn't so lucky." He pointed to the holed in his shirt revealing a series of puctures from the bite.
Well...The Posse wouldn't hear of him walking to the Infermary alone with that kind of room, especially after he had rescued on of their own. (come to find out........Lisa was Fujin's sister.) They took him to the Infermary and then up to the Headmaster. Josh was cleared to move into the Dorm across from Seifer and Raijin, and next to Fujin and Lisa.
"If you need anything, just ask."
"I won't need anything..but thanks." Josh unlocked the door to find out that he was actually in a Co-ed dorm with a very klutzy girl. He was glad that they had seperate rooms..because if the kitchen was any indication...she was a messy person....she even had......unmentionables hanging off the chairs. He went into his room...found it completely impersonal and untouched. Just the way he like it. He put his clothes away and fell asleep on the bunk. ******************************************************************** If you like...please reveiw...if you don't like..please reveiw...if you don't care...please review......inother words...please reveiw
