Balamb Garden

"Beyond repair," Beccalyn lamented on her ravaged student uniform. She tugged at the hemline, trying to reveal less than what her uniform was already showing. It didn't help that whatever was left of her modesty elicited stares from most of the male crew and students. She was desperate to adhere to the dress code when her customized uniform was designed to borderline it. The irony. . .

She seated herself next to Luana, who brandished her halberd proudly.

"Next time they should provide us the necessary gear," she sighed while wiping off the blood from her hands. "I thought Balamb was rich."
 
Cole woke up just as the boas left the beach. His body was sore, but all his wounds were healed over without scarring. He smiled to himself. He was on his way back to the Garden. Finally a chance to rest at home.
The only downside of coming back from missions, was the report Cid have him do each time. He was the only one Cid ever asked to do reports. Or at least that he knew of. Whenever he finished a mission with someone, they were always suprised that he had to write about it. Cole never understood why.
After the little nap a had a bit more energy. Enough to look around the boat at least.
Across from him sat the two girls that everyone always gawked at: Launa and Beccalyn. They still looked good all torn up like they were, but that was as far as Cole allowed himself think about them. Beccalyn was struggling to keep her clothes from falling apart. This was quite an amusing site to watch.
"Maybe you should think about dressing properly from now on. Then you won't have to worry about showing more than you want."
 
"Maybe we could ask the Headmaster about it," Luana said to her flustered roommate.

Inwardly, she had to grin. Although Beccalyn always said that she should wear skirts, this was the very reason why Luana preferred pants. Besides, if she was going to lift her skirt to tease the boys, she wasn't about to do it under the noses of instructors...even the male ones.

"Maybe you should think about dressing properly from now on. Then you won't have to worry about showing more than you want."

Luana turned her head towards Cole, her creamy eyes daring him to draw closer.

"Oh, you know you love it, Cole," she teased with a wink. "No need to be shy."
 
"Maybe we could ask the Headmaster about it."

Beccalyn chuckled at Luana's dead-on simplicity. It was one of the reasons why she enjoyed her company so much. "Not a bad idea," Beccalyn replied, resting her eyes lazily as she concentrated on the boats movements to calm her tired body. "I think I'll get my father to intervene during their next budget meeting. He has a good lawyer."

"Maybe you should think about dressing properly from now on," said a voice across from them. "Then you won't have to worry about showing more than you want."

"Oh, you know you love it, Cole. No need to be shy."

The leggy brunette kept her eyelids shut and bit down on her lower lip. She reached a hand to the hemline of her skirt and tugged furiously. "Cole. . ." she muttered, holding back her wrath. "This is the uniform they assigned me. This is what they gave me!" Beccalyn offered nothing short of a disdainful glare to Cole. She stood up from her seat against the rocking of the boat, standing with feet apart and hands on her hips. She continued in a scolding gesture, bending forward a little for clarity. "How much do you want to see, Cole? Huh? You think I want to show this?--" A short flick of the wrist brought a ripped flap of the skirt to raise a little. She went on with the mocking exhibition, preparing for the finale as she griped the elastics of her black g-string. "Can you believe, this Luana! The nerve! Does he really think I'd show. . ." Beccalyn lurched forward a bit, making it easier for her forearms to do the task. Carefully, her hands lowered the elastics down from her waist to the top of her thighs. "Is this want you want to see, you perv!?"
 
Evan woke up with a jump and grabbed the pendant on his neck "Its still there...good"
he stood up and lent back untill his back cracked in three different places "ahh thats better, god damn it look at this uniform" he grabbed his shirt and tore it off revealing a well formed body, he then reached into his bag and pulled out a spare T-shirt, and put it on he then sat on one of the benches and thought about the mission just passed and what the report would say about him, he lent forward "it cant say anything bad not only did i kick Odins Ass and re-capture him but it was my summon that got rid of the sniper" he sat back in his chair and continued to think
 
"Becca...What are you doing?" Enigma raised an eyebrow slightly and chuckled; why was she so riled? Maybe the stress of the mission had gotten to her slightly, stress has different ways of presenting itself. For Enigma, it took the form of tiredness.
The ship gradually gained speed as they neared Balamb, it felt good to be on the way home. The mission was a great chance to prove himself, and it certainly went well; but Balamb was a place everyone loved. It had a feeling of safety, of familiarity.

Enigma looked out of the window. Land was gradually coming into sight, yet they still had a good 10 minutes of the journey left. A strange feeling of nerves overcame him, mainly because the sudden realisation that this was an exam had dawned on him. "If I haven't done well, my SeeD days could be finished." He entwined his fingers and rested them on top of his head, puffing out a huge lungful of air at the same time. At least they didn't have to wait a ridiculous amount of time to find out the results.

Over to the side, Becca was still blowing a gasket at Cole, she was damn near stripping in front of him to prove a point! "Cole, just don't say a word. She'll kill you." Enigma whispered discretely to Cole.
Xu was sitting by herself next to Cole, compiling the reports no doubt. There's no way he failed. Right?
 
Evan climbed out of the hatch and saw the quickly approaching Island and the wonderful balamb garden, he smiled and whispered to himself "there it is, my home with my nice soft comfortable bed" he then turned around and looked towards the ocean and summoned Leviathan who appeared out of the water "makes sure nothing interfears with these Seed transports getting back to the dock, and drink this" Evan then threw a GF-Hi-potion into leviathan's mouth, he removed a stone from his bag and looked at it, "first mission as a Seed instructor" he thought to himself and then he let out a small laff
 
Al awoke. barely.
He opened one eye, and looked around himself.

"I hope I don't get demoted for this, leaving raidrin to my teammates, and fallin unconscious myself" he thought.
Indeed, he did a dangerous thing, what if Raidrin had killed the rest?
That would not be good.

"well, they did good" Al though to himself, as he fell ack to sleep, awaiting the shore.
 
Damon: what am i going to do? I am hardly scoring points anywhere! I left Cole for dead, I hardly took out any soldiers, i didn't even fight the head guy!

Damon started banging the back of his head against the wall while chanting stupid... stupid.... stupid
 
What the hell was going on? Becca was 'threatening' Cole with a strip tease and Damon was banging his head against the wall.
"Thank god we're nearly home. These lot have cracked!"
The lush green grass of land was nearly in reach, it was actually exciting to think of being Balamb Garden; though it seemed most people were pre-occupied with how they performed.
"Damon, just think of it this way; at least you're not dead. Chances are if it wasn't for you, our job would have been tougher." The poor lad needed some reassuarance , before he totally lost it.

The shipwas slowing down to a halt, a very peculiar sensation. Similar to descending in an aeroplane. Enigma couldn't help but jump up in anticipation. "Woo! Home at last!" He started to do a little jig around the cabin, completely oblivious to the other peoples reactions.
From the small, dusty oval windows, Enigma could see their transportation waiting for them at the docks. Sitting there, in all the greasy, mechanical glory. On each of the bonetts was an ameoba-like driver.
"Becca, I can't believe I'm oging to say this, but I think you should pull your underwear back up slightly! Unless you want a group of horny men whistling at you and staring at your ass!"
Come to think of it...she might want that...
 
Damon heard Enigma and when he look up and saw Cole, all in one piece under the circumstances

Damon: thank god for that

Damon leant back but then the ship halted and Damon was pushed forward into the other room with Enigma and co. by the momentum

Damon: er.... sorry?

Damon got up and brushed himself off and saw the two women, one seemed to be halfway through undressing but Damon tried not to look and the women and turned to sit with Cole

Damon: Cole, sorry about earlier, pals?
 
evan felt the boat come to a stop and then climbed onto the platform at the dock he looked and saw his fan club they were stood looking at leviathan in fear
Fan girl 1: "oh my god what is that"
Fan girl 2: "evan save us"
Evan: "leviathan you are dismissed"
leviathan flew into the sea and dissapeared
Fan girl 3: "your our hero"
Fan girl leader: "when did you learn to control leviathan?"
Evan: "before the mission, i went to the shumi village"
evan walked past the girls and towards the car that was goin to take him and his fellow Seed members, candidates and intructors back to garden when it started to rain, he stood still and smiled, he then held his arms out to the side,
Evan: "this is soooo refreshing."
 
As the ships came to a stop, and by the small tug that the ship made as it made birth ((not shure on spelling here)), Al awoke.

He got up, rather shabby.

"Oh, we are here" There was a sign of releaf in his voice.
"so, we arent dead, thats good" He stated as he elft from the ship, and entered a nearby Balamb car, and sat down.

"I cant wait untill im back" This was true for most of the crew, they longed for the home, or atleast the comfort of balamb Garden.
 
((it is berth, just so you know, at least I think so))

FFGuy feels the boat come to a standstill and he gets out, hoping to get out before getting lost in the crowds he barges past everyone before they can get out

FFGuy: ahh, fresh sea breeze, dry land, I wonder what we do now though? (to all) does anyone know what we are doing next?
 
When Xu came up to him Cole ingored everyone else on the boat, even the girls. It was time to get to work. Damon came by and said something, but Cole was too busy to listen. He knew Cid would want to know how everyone did. This was an exam, so the report was even more important. the only good thing about it was that this time he had Xu's help.
The boat landed and the two of them stood up.
"Let's finish this back at the Garden," Cole said. "We'll have a couple hours before we have to report to Cid."
"Sure, but you can't be too harsh on them. I know you don't like many of the students, but we still did complete the mission."
"We got lucky. that's what happened. We had brute strength for us, but that is something that we can't always rely on. We were unorganized out there. I doubt I was the only one injured because of stupid mistakes."
"Well calm down. We'll just go over everything later. For now just feel happy we're back."
Cole took a deep breath. Xu was right. he finally got to go and relax back at the Garden. He looked around and saw Beccalyn still stuggleing with her clothes.
"If you really want to cover up, you can just ask someone for their jacket so you can cover up."
He took off his unform coat. His undershirt had changed to a dark red color from when he was shot, but he didn't care. It made him look like a war hero. He threw the coat full of holes to her and left the boat.
 
as evan was climbing into one of the balamb cars one of his fan girls shoutted to him
Fan girl 3: "hey why dont you get a lift with us"
Evan: "its garden rules, im not aloud to travel back to garden after a mission with civillians, sorry"
Evan sat in the car and waited for departure to balamb.he pulled out his phone and started to text his mother.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
hey mum, its Evan just got back from a mission im nackered, dont fone me tonight im too tired
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
he then put his phone away and shut his eyes to go to sleep.
 
JIMMY:

Jimmy got out of the boat, he had a bandage surrounding his forehead, Zell had already told him he had passed his field exam but he still had to take the written test...

Jimmy:"COOL!!! IT WAS AWESOME!!!!"

The mission had gone really well for Jimmy but he remembered he still had to face Trippie Number 2 in a duel...

Jimmy:"Ahh man got to take care of that as soon as i arrive at the Garden!"

Xu:"No Jimmy next we will have a briefing plus why would you fight that guy just after coming out from a tough mission and above all else you're injured so you have to rest!!!"

Jimmy had the usual reaction he always had when Xu spoke to him...

Jimmy:"Yes mam...no fighting got it."


 
As he waited on the car to bring him back to Balamb Garden, Arthvader started to think back on what just happened.

'For my first mission, That was quite an experience. I hope I receive more missions like that.'
 
Luana finally stood up and approached her roommate. She picked up the coat on the floor that was riddled with holes and handed it to her barely-clad friend.

"Looks like we have a winner, Becca," she teased. "He gave you his coat and you didn't even have to ask for it!"
 
A favor or a blow to her ego? If looks could kill, Cole would have died from from Beccalyn's icy glare if he didn't bleed to death from the pea-sized projectiles. She was well aware of the student's injuries, having seen too much of that in the past. The truth was that a bullet wound was only as good as the the shot itself, meaning how deadly it was. She took notice of the holes on his jacket, realizing very quickly that they were all flesh wounds. Nothing to be proud of. Compared to what she had been through, those were less than bruises.

That son of a bitch. Who does he think he is?

She snatched the damaged coat from Luana's hands angrily. "Kids these days. They know nothing," she said sharply. "We had to go through hell to become what we are. They have it too easy."
