| The sun warming my skin slowly woke me up. Sitting up and stretching, I realized that I was surrounded by eight Fasticolan-F corpses. This puzzled me. Upon close inspection of the closest corpse, I found that they had been shot. The bullet was imbedded deep withing its eye socket, the quickest way to kill a Fasticolan-F. It was from a smaller gun, perhaps a handgun. By my guess, I figured it to be a handgun called the Raven. Ravens were intricately made, and were jetblack in color, giving them their name. I dropped the bullet into the sand, and covered it up. Brushing off the sand from my body, I stood up. I picked up the Unicorn and stashed it into my duffel bag. Once my duffel bag was safe in my hands, I continued my journey to Balamb Garden. Keeping my eyes on my destination, I constantly mulled over the question of who had shot the Fasticolan-F's. Upon reaching the Garden, I was passed by a large froup of boys and girls in what appeared to be their cadet uniforms. They were followed by a young woman dressed in pink. Her hair was long, and pulled back with two tendrils of hair left out in front, framing her delicate face. She carried a whip at her side, and she walked with an air of confidence. I instantly liked her for her show of confidence. Turning toward the entrance of the large grandeur of a building, I barely missed bumping into two males dressed in an immaculate uniform. Bowing my head and staring at the ground, I gave them a muffled apology, "Sorry, sirs." They paid me no attention, and I hurried on my way, having figured them to be SeeDs. I didn't look up again till a brunette tapped my shoulder. I turned to face her. Her hair was shorter than shoulder length, and the ends were curled outwards, away from her face. She was dressed in a short yellow dress, and held Nunchakus in her left hand. "HI! I'm Selphie Tilmitt! You must be new around here. I can take you to see headmaster Cid!" She was overly enthusiastic, almost making me cringe. "Thanks, that would be great," I whispered, secretly wishing that the person in charge of this huge school had been a headmistress instead of a headmaster. "Come on! If we get up there now, we could squeeze you in for a meeting with Cid!" Selphie literally dragged me by the arm into the Garden. |
