Lost in the darkness...It was a dreadful place for him. Since the loss of Rinoa Squall was doomed to forever roam the Darkness since his heart was taken. But a Heartless he does not even know which one it was.
The hot wind blew against his face and blew his bangs to the side. As he starred up into the night sky. How was he to get used to this? He was not evil. Or at least he thought he wasn't. He had a attitude for sure but it was not enough to call him to the Darkness. The life he chose now was not worth living. But he knew he could not do any thing to end it. He was already dead any way. What was the point?
Squall had no idea that his friends had heard of his latest news. And were out to look for him...But if they did find him Squall had no choice but to destroy them. At least for now Squall had no idea they were even coming. Who would arrive first was the question...Laying on a flat boulder as he did he placed his chin on his palms and sighed...As tears fell from his face. He did not want to do the wrong thing. He wanted to fight back....But first he had to get out of this place....Only one problem, he could not access a portal any more...
So he was doomed here for eternity. Or until he got orders from the Darkness to do some thing very bad. When ever that would take place. He was a lone. He deserved this. Some could vouch for that as well...Maybe he was destined to be as this for the rest of his life...He looked down and saw the necklace Rinoa gave him...He sighed as his mind drifted some where else...They might have taken his heart...But he would never forget her....Squall then heard rustling in front of him....As he stood straight up...and grabbed the handle of his gun blade...."Who's there?!"

Rinoa came back but could she find him or convince him to return with her this time. Last time she was left alone and returned to her world to seek help but no one agreed to follow to scared to enter the Realm of Darkness so she left alone. Coming back to this world was the last thing she wanted, she hated this place and everything about it but she just had to find him. Would he come back this time......? She wasn't planning to leave without him.
Rinoa reached to hold her necklace once she spotted a figure walking in front of her.She hesitated for a moment but followed till he stopped to ask. "Did you really think I would just leave you in this realm without coming back?" She asked standing in her place.

"Did you really think I would just leave you in this realm without coming back?"
Squall relaxed his sword as he heard her voice. And sighed...
"I...I thought I told you to stay away from me....."
He said annoyed sorta...As he leaped down to her from the rock he was on....He was no longer able to leave this realm. It was forbidden...Squall lowered his head then. There was not much more he could say to her. He was trying to hide his feelings because if the sorceress found out about this, then who knew what could happen....Squall was terrified at the thought. He wanted to be with her...But he couldn't.

"You did....." Rinoa replied remembering the last words he did to her but did he really think she would listen. Just to forget about him and return home? He knew her better he should have known she would be back no matter how dangerous it was. "Squall you were there for me when I needed you...... always you were by my side so how can you expect me to just leave you when its you who need me now and don't lie because you know I can see though that....." She did smile and walked up to him. She was still wearing her necklace and engagement ring...... actually she never took them off.

"You did....."
"Squall you were there for me when I needed you...... always you were by my side so how can you expect me to just leave you when its you who need me now and don't lie because you know I can see though that....."
It was true....This being apart from her, was not working for him. He still loved her a lot....He wanted to be with her. But he knew the deal he made....If he left with her to the Light side, then she will die....That was the deal...."Rinoa...Please...Don't....Don't make me cry....You were the first one to teach me how to love....And now we can't be together because of my stupid mistake....You think I want you to leave? Well, I don't. Nothing would make me happier than to walk through that portal with you by my side....But, your life is on the line....I can't risk that....I...I've been searching for ever in this realm to try and find the one Heartless that stole my heart....But every time I get close enough or get a trail.....I'm separated from it....By her...She does not want me to leave....She wants me to be in misery...And I'm afraid that this time your magic will not be strong enough...."
He saw her walk up to him and saw the engagement ring he gave to her was still on her finger....A tear fell from his left eye then....As he felt her Light inside her....Some thing he would never have again...He swallowed hard....She would see the sadness in his eyes too....And if she knew him the way she thought, she would see the craving he had for her....It was eating him up inside! He could only imagine being with her now....He was scared to even kiss her.....

"Squall I don't care what you say this time I am not leaving without you..... I know Ultiimecia is strong but we faced her together right and we won.... we can do it again and I am not afraid of her anymore...."
Rinoa continued to move closer and let a small smile form on her lips. She listened to him and shook her head once he mentioned the Heartless "You can't ever catch him Squall that Heartless isn't real..... your heart is still here" She said placing her hand on top of his chest and looked into his eyes trying to search for something love and she found it.
"Squall you forgot about one of Ultimecia's abilities.... your heart never left you its still here I can feel it.... the rest was an illusion a way for her to built her fear inside you. If you don't believe me than answer me this if you don't have a heart how can you still care...... still love me?" She asked standing so close to him now.

"You can't ever catch him Squall that Heartless isn't real..... your heart is still here"
"W...What?"
He shuddered at her touch then. But it was a good one not bad shudder....He closed his eyes to take that touch in.....
"Squall you forgot about one of Ultimecia's abilities.... your heart never left you its still here I can feel it.... the rest was an illusion a way for her to built her fear inside you. If you don't believe me than answer me this if you don't have a heart how can you still care...... still love me?"
"Sh....She tricked me...." He closed his eyes....Then if his heart was still here with him, how could have hatred inside him? Unless it was a spell......A single tear fell from his eye....He did care....He did love...So it was a lie? He was trained better than this? What was happening to him....? So many questions....And no answers.....
"Rinoa I...I might have my heart....But she still has a hold over me....Any minute she could snap her fingers and I'll be choking you....I'm not strong enough to get that hold off me that she has....Not enough Light....I'm not good enough for you....Ju...Just leave...." And that when Rinoa would notice that he was not himself.... Ultiimecia was using him against his words.....He then looked up at her...."NO! NO! I didn't mean that! I wanna be with you so much...." He looked her dead in the eyes and grabbed Rinoa by the cheeks as he pulled her into a kiss....How could he be so foolish to believe any thing that witch did was real....? Rinoa would also see that he was losing his mind...And he needed to get it back....That kiss was him though...She would know that....And that was when he pulled away he looked deeper into her eyes....

Rinoa nodded this was what she came back to tell him after learning more about the darkness and the Heartless. As long as he still had feelings, love then he still had a heart. It was a trick to separate them and it worked but Rinoa wasn't going to leave this time not without Squall by her side.
She shook her head at those words he said. "No Squall she won't she is just using your fear against you..... If she wanted to kill me she wouldn have done it already but no she needs my body to use me as a puppet to unleash her darkness in our world but I will stop her from that no matter how strong she gets I will find a way to block her from my mind I....."
Rinoa stopped at the end of his sentence this wasn't like him and he still wanted her to leave. She sighed turning but then was pulled into a kiss. She gasped in surprised but allowed it knowing that this was his way to try and fight her controle. She closed her eyes as they kissed and smiled before it ended and she looked at him waiting for words to come.

Selphie didn’t like it in the realm of darkness, not at all. She shuddered, this place gave her the creeps, making her skin crawl. She kept glancing around before reaching for her Nanchaku, making sure that it was still with her. You never knew what you would find in a place like this, best to be prepared! She wished Irvine was with her, or someone to talk to. She didn’t think anything could get her, and she wouldn’t back down from anything that tried…but still….
She chose not to think about what she was in here for. Rinoa had told her about Squall and Ultimecia. She had stolen his heart…? That what she had gotten out of the somewhat panicked phone call she had gotten. Zell, Irvine and Quistis were out on a different mission, one she would have loved to go on, but she had gotten stuck at the garden. “I’m sure that they’re all fine…they have to be darnswell!” She liked to combine words, see how they sounded on her tongue.
Shaking her head she hummed eyes on me, a song popular when she had been smaller, and was known by almost everyone. She skipped a little bit, a spring in her step. Surly things would be alright, Ultimecia couldn’t have stolen his heart for good…at least not with Rinoa around. She tried to think something else, anything else, she hated to think about depressing things.
Her mind turned to Irvine, was he ever going to ask her out on a date? She liked him, blushing when he flattered her, sometimes she wondered if he noticed her at all. Shaking her head, she tried to remember why she was in the creepy place she was in. When she found Rinoa and Squall, was Ultimecia going to be there as well? Was she going to have to help them fight her off? She didn’t know what to expect, but she had come prepared.
When she climbed over some rocks, she looked up to see Rinoa and Squall kissing. Her eyebrows raised and as she cupped her hands over her mouth to yell something at them, she suddenly lost her balance. “Umph!” She groaned as she fell on her butt. “ow!” She complained to herself before getting up and brushing herself off. Climbing down more carefully this time, she concentrated on maintaining her balance. If they were kissing that meant everything was alright…right? Jogging over to them, she waved and tried to smile, even though she didn’t know what was going on. Did Squall have his heart back? Had Rinoa cured him once again? “I got here as fast as I could!”

"No Squall she won't she is just using your fear against you..... If she wanted to kill me she wouldn have done it already but no she needs my body to use me as a puppet to unleash her darkness in our world but I will stop her from that no matter how strong she gets I will find a way to block her from my mind I....."
After that, he had just plain out kissed her....Yes he was trying to over the darkness inside him....And let Ultiimecia see that he was more powerful than her spells...But still he missed Rinoa so much! How could he deny her a kiss....? Never. They have been through so much...He could not just throw that away, not now. His heart belonged with Rinoa....He knew that now. Squall, would just have to be the one to step up and say that he was going to be used as a puppet for Ultiimecia's petty games....There was some thing different between her and Squall. Squall had his friends to help him fight and along his side they would be...If they were not all busy at the moment...
But then, a familiar voice sounded from behind Squall as he pulled away from the kiss he was giving Rinoa....
“Umph!”
“ow!”
“I got here as fast as I could!”
And Squall turned around then and smirked at who was coming jogging towards them....Selphie....She was here? Maybe she knew about this...It was no question that Rinoa had probably asked all her friends to help...As much as he wanted to smile, he did not...He then turned away from Selphie then...As he walked away from her and Rinoa then...He was not wanting to place his friends in danger...He looked down and sighed...Even though he did have his heart his Light was gone...Hopefully Rinoa would help him find it again....And Selphie...But would his friends be there and not reject him? That scared him the most....

The kiss ended and Rinoa stopped to blush yet turned to Selphie with a smile. "Glad you made it here we need all the help we could get. Ultimecia is here somewhere and this place is crawling with Heartless..." She needed help and Squall did too whether he would admit it or not. She knew things wouldn't be easy but that was just Squall he was always like that.
"Squall....." Rinoa said walking up to him his heart was back but not his light she saw that and they needed to find a way to help him so they could all leave this world. "We are all here for you you know that.... lets fight together like we did before and find your light."

Selphie saw the smirk on Squall’s face, her own mouth curved into a smile, but it was short lived. Rinoa spoke to her, and she turned to her friend with a little worried smile. Nodding, she put her hands on her hips and cocked her head. “Ultimecia…is she here?” Looking around, she crossed her arms, a cute frown on her face, her eyes determined, even though with her small body frame she didn’t look that fierce. “We’ll get rid of her just like we did last time, don’t worry about that!”
She stood on her tiptoes and clasped her hands behind her back. “I don’t like heartless!” She wished Irvine, Zell and Quistis were there with them. Her other friends were busy on a mission, and couldn’t come, but she didn’t like the thought of doing this without them. She didn’t like thinking about the fact that Ultimecia might win, so she instead tried to lift everyone’s spirits. That was her way, she didn’t know any other way.
Then Squall walked away without saying a word. Squall needed them, more then anything else he needed them there with him. If he didn’t have his friends…what did he have? He was extremely powerful, but his physical power was not what he needed to fight the darkness.
She shook her head. “Squall wait!” She stomped her foot and ran after Rinoa as she walked after Squall. “You had better not go! Rinoa’s right, we’re all here for you! Besides, even you’re not stubborn enough to realize that this is one thing you can’t do alone!” Squall had always been a 'lone wolf' until Rinoa had changed him for the better.
“You can’t do it alone, didn’t you hear me?!” She pointed to Rinoa and then her little hand clenched into a fist. “We’re right Squall, better listen to us this once!” Rinoa meant everything to Squall, if anyone could convince him, she could. Selphie was simply there to back her up and tell him that he wasn’t alone. She touched her Nanchaku, then looked at Squall’s gunblade. They could do this, but they would need Squall’s help with defeating Ultimecia. And he needed their help as well.

"Glad you made it here we need all the help we could get. Ultimecia is here somewhere and this place is crawling with Heartless..." Squall looked down when Rinoa greeted their young friend....He was still away from the two then....."Squall....." He then looked up as he felt her walk near him...."We are all here for you you know that.... lets fight together like we did before and find your light."
Not moving his head he looked down...He was always on his own in his missions....Until he met Rinoa.....He was just scared that that witch might try and take Rinoa or worse....Selphie...Selphie was always cheerful around him and not let any thing bring her down. She was always pleasant to be around. Even though she and Squall hardly ever talked....He knew she was a good friend...A friend that did not deserve to even be here....This was all his fault....
“Ultimecia…is she here?” "No she's not...At least, not now...I don't think..." “We’ll get rid of her just like we did last time, don’t worry about that!” “I don’t like heartless!” "No one on the Light side does...Even I hate them...They fight to steal your heart that's pretty much it...I think...I'm not good with this world...I wanna go home...Where I belong...." Squall finally confessed that he didn't wanna stay here....“You had better not go! Rinoa’s right, we’re all here for you! Besides, even you’re not stubborn enough to realize that this is one thing you can’t do alone!” But Squall was not going any where...He was not about to leave his fiance alone in this place....Not again....“You can’t do it alone, didn’t you hear me?!” That was so hard to do....He was used to fighting alone....“We’re right Squall, better listen to us this once!” She was right...And he sighed then...."This is not the path I chose...I wanna be with you Rinoa....I wanna marry you as I asked a few months ago....I wanna find my light again....But it's so hard to do in a place like this....I think the best thing we can do right now, is find a way for me to get out of here....You guys can come and go...But me, with no Light...It's complicated...." Squall had grabbed a hold of Rinoa's hand then....And said that by looking in her lovely eyes...She was so beautiful....Even here....He wanted nothing more than to be with her forever...Now even Selphie would know that Squall had asked Rinoa's hand in marriage...He was not scared to let others know...It was just so obvious that they'd be together as husband and wife.....

Selphie was right and she was trying to be cheerful to help them both. It did and Rinoa was glad to have her friend here with her. So someone can back her up this time and help convince Squall to come back. It wasn't easy with Squall it never was, last time he left her alone and remained in this world she hoped he wouldn't do the same again.
"then lets go home Squall all of us its not too late for that." Rinoa stopped at his words and looked down at her engagement ring. Despite everything he said she was still wearing it and still wanting to marry him.
"Squall I want that too.... why are we staying here is this realm lets go home together this time. What ever comes we will face it together.... isn't that what you told me the last time, when Ultimecia tried to use me for her work.....?"

Selphie waited while Squall thought about what both Rinoa and she herself had said. She knew how he was, and he would make up his own mind, though their words could persuade him a little bit, in the end the decision he made was the one he would stick with. Although he had changed considerably when he had let Rinoa in. Maybe even If he chose not to leave this place, they could persuade him otherwise. She nodded before tightening her tiny fist and jumped up, raising her fist in the air. “If she isn’t here, and you wanna go home, come with us Squall!” Her voice was full of excitement and hope. “You can do it Squall! You can come home with us, come back to the Garden!”
She smiled, then she let Rinoa and Squall talk to each other. She waited, hoping Squall would say that he was going to come back with them. How could he stand there and let Ulitmecia win?! If he stayed here, and didn’t fight for himself, his friends and Rinoa, he would be letting her win. That determined little frown came back on her face, yet she didn’t give up!
When he spoke of marrying Rinoa her mouth dropped open in surprise. She knew they were in love, but she hadn’t known anything about that! “You…your…enga…WOW!!” she burst out happily, her feet moved as she danced a little bit, jumping up and down excitedly. “that’s great!! I’m so glad!”
When he spoke of not having enough light to leave, she put her hand under her chin and contemplated. “Squall, you have more light then you think you do! With Rinoa as well as I close by…well, we could give you the light you needed to leave could we not?” She didn’t know if that was possible, but it was worth a shot. “If you stay here, then your letting Ultimecia win! And that’s not you Squall!! Your above that, we can figure out how to get you out of here squall, we just have to think!” She looked at Rinoa, and smiled. Everything she said was right. They had to stick together if they were going to defeat Utimecia once again!
