Disclaimer: Do not own.

I have just completed Dirge of Cerberus! (Took me 24 hrs, which is a miracle as I hate shooting games!) Still haven't finished the actual ff7 game though, but I'm at least on the third disk (The Weapons are evil!) at any rate, I completely fell in love with Reeve in the game (And surprisingly Yuffie, she's actually sorta sweet in a way) So when the assault on Midgar began, and Reeve said 'Vincent. I'll see you before deployment', and the scene never came, and we didn't see any sight of Reeve after that, my fanfic brain went wild. So for the continuity of this little story, please disregard the fact that Reeve did show up briefly as Omega spawned, and enjoy this fic.

Pairing: Vincent/Reeve, because surprisingly they're even cuter together than VinCid (Which is saying something as I love VinCid!)

Warnings: Some bad language (Courtesy of Cid mostly); Mentions of sexual situations (No hard details, just be aware); And fluff, lots of fluff! After the angst and hurt of course. Also, be advised, I am taking major liberties with the storyline and the characters in this.

Assault on Midgar

"Vincent."

Reeve turned from Shelke and levelled a look on Vincent, so much he wanted to say but couldn't. Somehow over the short time they had been working together the feelings he had found himself harbouring for Vincent had grown. He was also almost convinced that Vincent returned those feelings, even if just a little. He wanted to tell Vincent before everything happened, and maybe, just maybe, Vincent wouldn't let himself get killed.

He wanted to be Vincent's reason to live.

"I'll see you before deployment."

Vincent nodded to him, and Reeve gave a final nod to both he and Shelke before leaving the bay to speak to his troops. Things became busy very quickly, and he soon became lost in the hubbub surrounding the drop. He himself would be staying on board the Shera for the duration. He asked Cid to rally the troops before the drop as he was preoccupied with a problem in drop points.

By the time he had the chance to find Vincent and speak to him it was already too late, he reached the bay as the group Vincent would be going down with was readying to drop. He was about to call out, hold Vincent back for just a moment, tell him to come back safe, tell him of his feelings… Kiss him… when the whole bay went up in flames and noise as a missile hit.

Then there was nothing but frightening slow silence as Reeve was thrown back, hands scrabbling for any purchase on the metal of the ship. The sudden turn the Shera negated any purchase he had gotten and he was thrown from the vessel, and all he knew, for the longest of times, was falling, the way missiles and magic flew around him, all miraculously missing him, and then the sudden and jarring impact with the ground, and everything went black.

Yes, I am evil and it is short, but it will all become clear soon. This is merely the prologue, more to come, probably tonight as I am a little hyped over completing the game. I apologise to those who can remember exact lines from things and will probably be annoyed that I never quote properly. I'm useless as remembering exact lines, I just try to get the meaning across as best I can.

Please review, next chapter up soon.
