How to get Quina in Disc 1:
Once you have passed Lindblum, go to Qu's Marsh which is very easy to find. Once you're there, keep going up until you find this fat clowny like dude. That's Quina. He/she will ask you to fetch him/her a frog and give it to him/her. Sorry Quina's gender is unknown. Now, you follow Quina to his/her master's house and the master will accept Quina in your party. Quina will then join your party. This is at least what I can remember. If you don't get Quina in Disc 1, don't worry, you will get him/her sometime in Disc 2.

Story (Caution, huge spoilers!)
Queen Brahne of Alexandria is trying to increase her domain, and war is brewing among the neighboring kingdoms on the Mist Continent. Something more than Brahne's lust for power is driving the once-peaceful nation of Alexandria to conquest. Princess Garnet, adopted daughter of Queen Brahne, is unhappy in her position and plagued by nightmares of a sea voyage; a flight from a terrible eye in the heavens. Vivi Ornitier, childlike and alone, yearns to know his history and why he exists. All are brought together on a seemingly innocent night of entertainment in Alexandria, one that will spin events out of control and lead to the truth of their lives and others.
Regent Cid of Lindblum is worried about how these troubling events will impact Princess Garnet, so he dispatches the Tantalus group to Alexandria. Undercover as a theater group, Tantalus "kidnaps" Garnet, much to her satisfaction. During the operation, Vivi and Garnet's guardian, Adelbert Steiner, becomes involved. The plan soon backfires, and Tantalus member Zidane Tribal is left in charge of the kidnapping. When Zidane, Garnet, Steiner, and Vivi reach Lindblum, Brahne begins her advancement into the Burmecia region, home of Zidane's friend Freya Crescent. Soon after, Alexandria sweeps through Cleyra and the previously mentioned Lindblum, stealing powerful eidolons for use in future invasions. Zidane and his friends, accompanied by Quina Quen, attempt to stop the attacks, while Garnet unsuccessfully tries to negotiate with her mother.
It is soon discovered that Brahne's sudden shift in attitude is being manipulated by a man named Kuja, who has his own plans for world domination. Meanwhile, Zidane and his allies encounter Eiko Carol and Amarant Coral during their adventures. After Brahne's downfall, Zidane and his allies chase Kuja and observe his antics, which culminate in a journey to the parallel world of Terra. At Terra, all will learn the truth behind Kuja's inferior relationship to Zidane. When the truth is revealed by Garland, Kuja is no longer satisfied with world domination; his depression turns into rage, and he hatches a plot to destroy the source of all existence: the Crystal. Upon reaching the Crystal World, Zidane and his friends face Kuja in battle, where Kuja seemingly destroys everyone with Ultima. Surviving, the heroes find themselves in the presence of Necron, a powerful entity who also wishes to destroy the Crystal and return the world to what it was before existence. Upon defeating Necron, Zidane stays behind to find Kuja. The others believe Zidane dead, and Garnet, now the reigning queen of Alexandria, slides into depression. In the closing moments of the game, Zidane appears before Garnet during a performance of a play in Alexandria. The queen runs through the crowd of people, and leaps into his arms.
