Meeting up with Seifer Almasy

[dagger]

Ellone was coming around Dollet she wasn't trying to do anything that she hasn't done before she wasn't trying to beat anyone that she did knew in the gut she had loved everyone from her past. She was only trying to do what she had wanted to do she was smiling, and she was wanting to hangout in Dollet with her sibling Seifer. She had been missing out most of their life, so she was so sure that he didn't remember her at all.

She was so sure that she didn't she didn't know what Seifer thought of her. She was wanting to be remembered by the other siblings she had the orphanage. She was only wanting to make sure that nobody hurts her feelings. She was wanting to hangout with everyone she ever knew at the orphanage. She was making sure that she had wanted to have her fun for sometime. Ellone was so sure that she had wanted to do something that is fun with her she still had her ability. She was always wanting to make sure that she wanted to be with her friends from the orphanage she remembered them all. She had wanted to have a night she had remembered that was so fun for her.

She was so standing there waiting for Seifer to come near her she was standing in the main square she had watching everyone had fun. She was trying to figured out what she was wanting to do when Seifer had showed up. She was missing him, and she had always loved him too. She was waiting for him to show up so they could hangout for the time being. She had never had a boyfriend like ever. She was only caring about everyone she had ever met with all her heart.

She had never let go of the past that the time she was so happy. She had always tried to do what she wanted, but she was always the same girl she was back then. She was only wanting to be with everyone that she had been around, but she had known some stuff about some people than what other people would have known. She had always wanted a boyfriend. She wasn't able to for so long that she doesn't know how to reacted around guys except for the ones from the orphanage.

Ellone was really trying so hard to fit in, but that power of hers was making her stand out. She had wanted to be treated like every other girl. Ellone had looked around trying to find, which way Seifer was showing up from. She was only caring about what they was going to do when he did showed up.

Ellone tried to had some fun while she did waited for him to come near her. She had waited for him to came towards her so that she did had fun with him. She was trying to dance while she waited. She was dancing to no music. She was just waiting for him she did wanted to wait all night.

The streets of Dollet were crowded, as usual. Seifer strode through them with his usual, confident gait, and when a car stopped abruptly before him and honked loudly, he spared it only enough attention to offer a rude hand gesture before his mind was again all on watching where he was going. Even here, he had to be careful. Dollet wasn't as bad as Galbadia, and far better than Balamb, but there were people in Dollet that would crucify him just as soon as any of the others if they found out who he was.

He stared at one pedestrian that was giving him funny looks, and the guy, realizing the Seifer was watching him watch him, jumped and quickly scurried off. The blond frowned at him as he left. Anyone could recognize him. Even if they didn't know him as the crazy guy that tried to destroy the world, they might talk about him to those that did.

Paranoid, that's what I am. Just breath, and everything will be all right. No one's looking for you. He grimaced and hurried on. Standing still was another thing that might get him noticed.

A narrow lane with shops lining either side, their neon signs blaring in the dark alleyway, led to the city square. As he brushed by a young lady with a muttered apology - that was something new, him being able to apologize - he went on for several steps, then stopped dead, his heart beating wildly. Impossible. It couldn't be...

But as he turned, and looked at the girl he had bumped into it, it became obvious that it was. His eyes widened, then narrowed, as his eyes ran over her. A light, blue-green dress, mousy brown hair...and the other features, those that had been drilled into his head when he was ordered to hunt her down, fit perfectly. He was looking at Ellone Loire.

Oh, dammit! So much for going unnoticed! It was almost funny. Here he was, trying to sneak around, to slip under the radar until the heat died down, and what did he do? Run right into one of the people directly involved in the whole mess.

"I..." he began, throat suddenly dry. What was he supposed to say?

Oh, hi, Ellone, how're you doing? Me, I'm great. Oh, you still mad for the whole thing about me sending the Galbadians after you? Yeah, that was just a big misunderstanding. No hard feelings, eh? He fought an urge to laugh hysterically.

"Uh...Ellone...?" His brain shouted at him to run, to make a smart-ass comment, anything to get him out of this situation, but his body and voice refused to obey him.

[dagger]

Ellone looked at Seifer, and she had smiled. She was only trying to do right by everyone especially Seifer. "Hi Seifer how are you?" Ellone asked. Ellone was not blaming Seifer for that time not ever. She had decided to tell him what she felt like that the time. She doesn't want to put the blame on him. "I had never blamed you not once." Ellone said. Ellone had wanted to make sure that he didn't want to be blamed. "I still do love you Seifer I had always have and always will." Ellone said. Ellone looked at Seifer. He was trying to say something to her. She didn't want him to blame himself for what happened months ago.

Ellone was looking at him, and she was wanting to make sure that she did have a fun time with Seifer. "Hey Seifer lets hangout." Ellone said. Ellone didn't wanted no one to blamed Seifer Almasy it wasn't his fault not really that's why she was always wanted to be with him now. She was only wanting to make sure that nobody ever did wanted to hurt her only friend. She didn't want anyone to make the mistakes of the months ago. "Lets be ourselves how we used to be remember?" Ellone asked.

Ellone had wanted to make sure that nobody would ever be hurting her feelings again. She didn't want to be hurt she was going to have a fun time being with him. She looked around, and she smiled. "Lets be hanging out together." Ellone said happily. She put her hand out, and wanted Seifer to take it.

Ellone was trying so hard to control thosse powers of hers that she can't believe that her power of sending people into the past or the present is what Ultimecia had wanted. She was so wanting to make sure that she was free now to live the life as she wants. She never had wanted to be with no one else people from 10 years back was fine with her to hangout with. She didn't know people much since most of her growing up was being protected on the White SeeDs ship. She had always been protected when Ultimecia was around. Ellone was still scared that people would like to use her power once again. She had wanted to be his friend.

"Seifer, I want to be your friend." Ellone said.

Ellone was only wanting to be with him no matter what happens, she had always wanted to be his friend. She had always hoped there was a chance of them being friends. She was really liking him ever since ten years ago she had wanted them to be great friends she can't fight at all so she was looking to him with her face about to cry.

"I can't protect myself so what hope is there that we could be friends, and did you want something." Ellone said.

Ellone was on self-loathing she had self-loathed her powers because she couldn't live a normal life that she had always wanted. She had to live the life everyone else wanted her to have.

While he was still fumbling for words, Ellone took the option out of his hands. He was almost jealous of how easily she seemed to keep her composure, while he was still sitting there bumbling like an idiot. C'mon, Almasy, where's your famous cockiness? Do something! Ellone's words, though, answering exactly what he had been thinking, made him choke. Cautiously, he regarded her, frowning. He knew that Ellone had special powers, but he didn't think mind-reading was among them. The thought didn't give him much comfort.

"Don't blame me?" he answered, shaking his head. "Ellone, how could you not blame me? I sent men to burn and pillage and murder to find you, and didn't think twice about it. Hell, sometimes I did the murdering myself. And in case you don't remember, the last time we saw each other, it was in Lunatic Pandora, where I was set to give you up to Ultimecia to use as a tool! I tried to end the world!" He shook his head, backing away slowly. "No. I won't accept this!" When Ellone held out her hand to him, he reclined like it was a anacounder.

He barely even remembered anything about the girl. Oh, Ultimecia, back before he knew she was Ultimecia, had been all too eager to drag back his memories from the back of his skull. He had known even before all the rest, and it had been one hell of a slap in the face. To think that he had grown up with them - Squall, Chickenwuss, the Instructor, that messenger girl, and the other guy, Irvine, he thought his name was - had been almost impossible to believe. He hadn't had a comfortable reminder, like the others. Ultimecia had flat-out told him, and it had all come rushing back like an avalanche. And after that, of course, he had been even more bound to Edea, his precious Matron, which had been exactly what the future-bitch had wanted.

But most of his memories consisted of Squall. How Squall had looked, how Squall had talked, how he had acted...those scenes were implanted strongly in his head. The others were all a blur. Even Ellone.

"I don't think it's possible to go back," he said carefully. "I barely remember anything." Besides, he vaguely recalled not being much better back when they were at the orphanage. He had been as much a jerk then as he was now. "Sorry, Ellone, but if you want someone to play brother and sister, you've come to the wrong guy. Why don't you go track down Squall? He's the person you want." The smallest trace of bitterness entered the tone of his voice when he mentioned Squall. "As for me, I just want to be left alone." Left alone, so he could disappear in the corner for a few years and grapple with the voice of his own raging ego.

[dagger]

Ellone looked at him with tears going down her face. Ellone didn't want to be with Squall at the moment even though he had always did come to her rescue. She had wanted to get to know Seifer very much. Ellone shook her head. "No I don't want to go find Squall I want to get to know you Seifer, and I never blamed you I didn't mind it you see it was different now I can't never blamed you, and as much as you want to be a jerk you are still you it doesn't matter who you are it just matters what you do to make up for the past. I had never blamed you for wanting to turning me to Ultimecia I do care about you Seifer, but if you want to be left alone then I will stand right here. You don't see how much hurting my own powers put me through they hurt me I want to be a normal girl, but I can't." Ellone said.

Ellone looked at Seifer, and wondered did he really meant that he wanted to be left alone. She smiled at him, and she didn't want to be anything than she is. She is innocent, and she had a sheltered upbringing. "People say you can't change the past. But even still, if there's a possibility, it's worth a try, right?" Ellone asked. Ellone looked at him, and she smiled. "I don't look to the past I do love you, Seifer not as a brother just as a friend that's all I want us to be the whole Ultimecia thing is in the past is it not?" Ellone said.

Ellone looked at Seifer with a smile on her face. She wasn't wanting to have be thinking back into the past. She was wanting to change the past. She was so happy that she wanted to get to know him. "I put my hand for friendship." Ellone said. Ellone felt the love for him naturally.

"My love for is naturally there." Ellone said.

Ellone loved him because she does wanted to she had never expected to be loving him despite of all that happened. "I can't blame you I'm not that kind of girl that would want to blame you." Ellone said. Ellone looked at him, and she remembered what Raine said. Ellone did still have her unusual powers of sending people consciousness into the past.

"Do you want to see my past?" Ellone asked.

Ellone wanted to show him her past she just looked at him, and she wanted to trust him. "I do trust you unconditionally." Ellone said. Ellone looked at Seifer everyone did wanted her for her powers. "Do you still want to hunt me for my powers or is that over with that we can move on to the future?" Ellone asked. She was changing she was still innocnet, but she does changing for the better. She was here giving him her heart hoping that he was going to understand her. She was smiling, and she hugged Seifer she didn't mind who it is.


Seifer was a hard man. That was the way he had been raised; even as a young child, he had had an abrasive personality that naturally deterred people from hanging around him. Not like Squall - Squall had purposefully kept himself from getting close to anyone - but just as effective. All his feelings were driven toward ambition, leaving no room for anything else. Sadness and love weren't a part of his emotional vocabulary. Looking down at Ellone, her eyes full of tears, the only effect on him it brought was an uncomfortable shifting. He never could stand cry babies, it was one of the reasons he had picked on Zell so much. That, at least, he could remember.

"As a friend, huh?" he mused. "The only friends I've had, decided to bail on me halfway through. Sorry, but I don't think you'll do much better." He winced at his words. That's right, Almasy, piss her off and make her leave. The only person that doesn't think you're dirt, and that's what you do. Real smooth. He tried to ease his tone, not without difficulty. "It is all in the past, which is why I want to be left alone. In case you haven't picked up on this little tidbit, I'm not exactly 'Man of the year' right now. If anyone found out I was here..." he looked around quickly, and took a step closer. Just two people chatting. At least, that's how he hoped people would see them.

"And I don't want you even thinking about using that hocus-pocus of yours. Word of that gets out, and everyone will know you're here. And me, once they start snooping around. Keep your past to yourself. It won't help either of us now."

He narrowed his eyes suspiciously at Ellone when she came toward him, and jerked reflexively when he found himself suddenly in her embrace. "What do ya think you're-" he began angrily, ready to shove her away, but the words died in his mouth. The hell with it. The damned girl was so stubborn, she'd probably come right back at him. Besides, the last thing he needed was a scene. Still, he stood stiff as a statue until finally, he pulled away from her.

"Don't do that again," he growled. "I'm not a stuffed animal." He turned, then, his trenchcoat flapping up around him before it settled back around his legs. "I'm heading back to the hotel," he said over his shoulder. "You can follow me, if you have to, but try to stay out of the way. I don't need a lost puppy tripping me up." Harsh words, but necessary. No place was safe for him, now. If it came down to him or her, he would save himself without a moment's hesitation. That was just the way he was.

...Isn't it?

[dagger]

"I don't treat you like dirt do I do you really want to make me mad so mad that I would rather withdrawal inside myself?" Ellone said. Ellone looked at Seifer, and she was trying so hard to keep her spirits up so much that she was walking next to him, and she was wanting to be with him. She wasn't wanting to do anything that she hasn't done before. She was only wanting to do what she wanted to do. She was only wanting only to do what she wanted.

"In my eyes you are the man of the year I won't turn my back on you not ever." Ellone said.

Ellone looked at him she smiled at him, and she wanted to make sure that she feels safe with him, but she was freezing. She was walking in front of him, but she had to sitdown. She was looking at him. "Can you please hand me your coat I'm freezing." Ellone said. Ellone had tripped over something she doesn't wear the appropriate clothing. She was only caring about Seifer, and she was only wanting Seifer to be happy. She tried to stand, but she tripped back down again she can't fight at all, and she saw a soldier in the Galbadian outfit she was scared that she would get hurt, or worst. She was seeing the past so it frightens her still.

"Seifer, wait up." Ellone said. She was limping on one ankle. She was looking around, and she wanted to make sure that nothing happens to anyone. She was trying so hard to do what is best for herself.

She was looking around, and she was worried. She was really worrying about Seifer. "Seifer please for a little while would you carry me?" Ellone asked. She was wanting to be carried for a little while. She kissed him on the cheek. "You never said I couldn't kiss you." Ellone said.

Ellone was wanting to make sure that she doesn't do anything that she doesn't want to do she is a girl who has an unusual power. "Its not hocus-pocus, come on I thought Matron told you about my power sometime ago." Ellone said. Ellone looked at him, and she wanted to have a great friendship. Her teeth were chattering from being frightened for her life again. She was wanting to go, and hide. "You, aren't the one I blamed for me to use for Ultimecia I blamed Ultimecia." Ellone said. She was wanting to make sure that she wanted to make sure that she doesn't do anything as she wanted she only wanted to make sure that nobody gets hurt not even him. She was wanting to make sure that she was going to do make sure that nobody blames you. "I will be forever be on your side." Ellone said.

Ellone was wanting to make sure that she does have everything that she wants. She can't believed that she was protected all her life. She was only wanting to make sure that nobody gets hurt.

He did his best to ignore the girl - girl, he called her, though she was older than himself - as she lagged behind. Hadn't he just warned her not to get in his way? "I don't have time for this," he growled, quietly, not loud enough to be heard. He kept walking, barely slowing enough for her to be able to keep up, pretending not to notice when she asked him questions, and stopping her when she tried to ge close.

"Who do you think I am?" he said to her, finally. "We aren't in the orphanage anymore, sis" He made the word as mocking as he could. "I ain't your brother, and you aren't my sister. I have no family, 'cept for maybe some low-life parents that dumped me with you lot. So get it together!" He realized he was quivering with irritation, or anger, maybe. Memories of those days flashed back to him; a child, helpless, but still so full of himself, thinking he was superior to the world because he was able to insult, to fight back. So sure of himself. Even then, he had dreamed of being the knight, the glorious hero that all the rest bowed down to.

He walked with long, ground-eating strides now, eyes scanning the streets and buildings, before latching on to one in particular. "There's the hotel," he said, pointing. "C'mon. Stay sharp, and try not to stand out so much. I don't need you pulling the city down on my head." That was most certainly true. Hyperion lay in his room. A man couldn't just go walking the streets with a weapon, especially a gunblade, one of the most rare weapons in the world. He had only ever heard of a few besides himself and Squall that used them. Not that it would be any use anyway; if he killed civilians to get himself free, the entire world would hear about it. Garden might even decide it had let him roam free long enough and send SeeD after him.

"You better not get me into any trouble," he muttered to Ellone
