Who: Squall, [open]
When: Afternoon
Where: Costa Del Sol
What: Clearing out some monsters
Rating: TBA



Things had been quiet as of late. Too quiet for Squall’s liking. Quiet usually meant something big was on its way. He had looked into those people Glenn was searching for, but so far his research hadn’t produced many results.

Missions were on the slow side too, and those that were coming in were simple clear out missions, mostly suited to the lower level SeeDs. However, when a mission to clear out some strong fiends over in Costa Del Sol he had instantly signed himself up.

So far things were going well. The fiends were strong, but not overly so. Hopefully with a few more hours – providing none of the beasts respawned the area would be secure.

The commotion caught Squall's attention and he made his way over, gunblade in hand, eyebrow arching at the sight of Ifrit and of the two people who seemed to be everywhere he went these days. "You do realise there is a clean-up operation in progress don't you?"

He shifted his weight from one foot to another, resting his gunblade at his hip before crossing his arms across his chest. "The beach is out of bounds to civilians until the monsters are cleared out."

The thief snorted. She didn't care if Squall was the top fighter in SeeD; she wanted that vacation no matter what. Leaping off her beast, landing on her boyfriend's back and ignoring his silent cries for help, she made her way over to Squall, a dagger in one hand, and a aura of flames in the other. Naturally she wouldn't hurt the gunblade wielder, provided he never fire at her.

"Oh wow! The big cheese at SeeD is here!" she rolled her eyes. "Nice to know you guys have enough time stormin' beaches while we took care of some Heartless in Dollet, without your bloody aid I might add! I swear, I thought that was your territory! It was a freakin' warzone there! Next time you guys are dumb enough not to defend a city, I'll personal shove me boots up your ars--MMMPH!"

A gloved hand covered her mouth, and it didn't take long to figure out who it was. "Enough!" he scolded, his other hand wrapped around her waist, preventing her going forward. Kid stood still, not wishing to hurt Serge anymore than necessary; she brought him along for a reason after all. "Glenn managed to get him to aid us in finding Janus. There's no reason to antagonize him." Staring back at Squall, his eyes widened. "Hey wait! You're the guy from the Halloween party a few months back!" He grinned. "Nice to see you again! I'm sure you remember us from our failed talk with the queen! Well, we wanted our vacation, but never got it thanks to our friend Glenn getting Kid sick, so we thought if we could help clear out some monsters and get our vacation as well!"

Squall made no attempt to move, he tilted his head to one side, listening to the girl as she ranted, until Serge stepped in. "Actually Dollet is under Galbadia's protection." Although Galbadia's idea of protection was... questionable. "I am sure if you would like to take it up with them, they would be most happy to hear what you have to say."

Even so, at the mention of the Heartless, Squall found himself toying subconsciously with the Heartless emblem keychain hanging from his gunblade, his gift from the Heartless King Mickey before the final battle.

"I remember you. You were the ones giving Queen Ashe trouble at the party." He ran a hand through sweat-damp hair. "Look... If you want to slay some fiends, be my guest, just don't get yourselves killed."

At that, Kid finally calmed down. She slowly nodded at her boyfriend, and he freed her from the hold. The fire faded, and she placed her dagger back with a frown. "Can't believe I forgot about Galbadia...Now I owe Glenn another arse kicking!"

Serge, sensing another argument ready to brew the name Ashe rolled off Squall's tongue, intervened, stepping in front of Kid and preventing her from advancing. He had to find out what exactly did she do to deserve such a cold reception, though he had a good idea considering her thievery. "We didn't mean to cause trouble. All we wanted to do was simply get some help returning home and finding Janus. That's all! If I knew she and Kid had a problem, I never would have brought her!"

Running a hand, adjusting his bandana back to normal from the ride over here. "So, what kind of fiends are we going to be dealing with? More Heartless, or something else?"
