As the title says, this an FF8 fanfiction. I wrote it maaaaany years ago. Ok, 9 years ago. Whatever. This is my first time uploading a fanfic so if I do anything wrong please let me know. Anyway it includes my own character Skye Amari, and my friend Michi's character Starr Kinneas who is Irvine's younger sister. It's basically a love story I came up with back in middle school. I found it recently and after reading it I thought, "Wow, this sucks a little." and practically rewrote it lol. I'm still a little disappointed in the ending because even after 9 years I couldn't really come up with much. It'll be pretty obvious once you start getting down there. And since I haven't played the game in a long time a lot of things are probably inaccurate, though there are some things I changed to be the way I want them to be. I wasn't following the storyline exactly because, well, it's my fanfic and I can write it how I want lol. Anyway, feel free to correct me just in case. Add criticism at your own ris...I mean, if you'd like. I'll hunt you down and kil...um, thank, you. Enjoy!
Final Fantasy VIII
The Game of Love
She watched him from the shadows of a tree as he trained with his gunblade in the training center of the Garden. His hair was matted to his forehead and the look in his eyes was intense. He paused for a moment gathering energy for his next attack. Starr Kinneas could feel her heart pounding in her chest as she watched Squall Leonheart, the boy of her dreams. Suddenly Squall jumped in the air and swung his gunblade shouting, “Renzokuken!” He unleashed his most powerful attack. The attack sliced through the air knocking down a few trees, one of them being a tree close to where Starr was hiding. She let out a yelp as it fell too close to her then quickly covered her mouth. “Shit! Did he hear me?” Squall turned and looked in her direction. She gulped a little, “Guess so…” Starr stepped out from the shadows putting on a pretty smile and trying her best not to look as nervous as she felt. “Hey Squall, you training too? I uh, was going to train with my sword blaster but um, I thought I’d be polite and wait until you were done.” She rested her hand on the hilt of the weapon hanging at her hip. He said nothing, just eyed her with a cold stare that sent chills down her spine. He suddenly walked up to her looking down into her eyes. Starr began to grow uncomfortable as he looked down on her with an expressionless face. “What’s with him all of a sudden?” she thought to herself. “What is your problem?” he suddenly asked. “Huh?” The question caught her off guard. “You’re always following me, staring at me, spying on me…it’s beginning to get suspicious.” Starr’s cheeks turned red, “He notices?!” She began to stutter trying to think of something, anything to say that would ease his suspicion. “Uh, well I um…” Nothing came, what could she say? Squall narrowed his eyes, “Are you spying…for Seifer?” Starr‘s eyes widened in shock, “What?!” Suddenly Skye Amari, Starr’s best friend, intervened. She had been hanging back watching them until it became clear things were going badly for her friend. She ran up placing herself between Starr and Squall. She planted a hand firmly on Squall’s chest pushing him back some. “Back off Squall, don‘t try to start something with my friend just because you‘re paranoid. She didn’t mean any harm and she’s not spying for that asshole Seifer.” He glanced past Skye at Starr then back to Skye again, “Then why is she always watching me? Stalking a person is awfully suspicious. And she does it a lot. What other explanation is there besides spying?” Skye got annoyed, “What’s wrong you, you‘ve never liked someone before? Haven’t you ever heard of spying on your crush? Oh!” Skye grabbed her mouth, Squall’s eyes widened in surprise. “Skye!!!” She spun around to face Starr, “I’m so sorry, it slipped!” Starr’s face was bright red as she yelled, “I can’t believe you, big mouth!” “You’re not going to kill me are you?” Starr pulled out her blade and aimed it at Skye, “Yes!” Skye hung her head and shook it sadly at her friend‘s decision. She then jumped back to give distance between them and whipped out her long barrel pistol aiming it at Starr’s head, “Very well…” Squall blinked looking at Starr then Skye and muttered, “Girls don‘t make sense…” They paid no attention to him. Starr made the first move rushing at Skye lifting her blade over her head and bringing it down hard but Skye dodged out of the way and rolled coming up behind Starr. She spun around using the momentum to swing her blade hard but Skye quickly ducked down and Starr’s blade slammed into the trunk of a tree that was behind her. Starr jerked but was unable to free her blade. Skye popped up behind her putting her gun to the back of Starr’s head, “Game over.” She pulled the trigger…click! “Huh?” She pulled the trigger again, another click. Nothing happened. Skye checked her gun, “Out of ammo again? I should really remember to check this thing more often.” Starr managed to free her blade from the tree and hung it on her belt again, “Yeah, or you’re going to get yourself killed one of these days during a battle.” Skye shrugged and tossed the empty gun over her shoulder, “Maybe I should switch to swords or something, they don’t run out of ammo. Hey, you wanna go to the cafeteria and meet the others for breakfast?” “Sure.” They walked out of the training center together chatting as if nothing happened. Squall just stood there for a second, dumbfounded. “Girls…really don’t make sense…” He sheathed his gunblade and walked out of the training center behind them keeping a safe distance.
Irvine Kinneas stepped out from the shadows, he had been following Skye. “Phew, that was close. It would have been unfortunate to lose my little sister. Or Skye.” He walked over to where Skye’s gun was laying and picked it up examining it. “I should return it to her, it would be the gentlemanly thing to do.” Irvine reached into his coat taking some ammo out and loaded the gun without checking what kind it was. He cocked it and aimed it at one of the trees then fired. There was a sudden explosion that sent Irvine flying back and knocking his hat off. He quickly sat up wide eyed, “What the hell?!” As the dust cleared he saw a large hole in the training center wall that the explosion had made. He looked at the gun in his hand, “How the hell does Skye handle a weapon like this?! She must be a lot stronger than I thought!” He heard voices as other Garden students were running up to see what had happened. He quickly grabbed his hat putting it back on and walked out of the center quickly whistling innocently.
