Puzzle

Sephiroth sat at his desk with all of his paperwork pushed to the side, staring down at something else that was currently occupying his time. His fingers worked quickly and steadily as they picked up small pieces of cardboard and placed them together. He yawned slightly, but his fingers did not falter.

Pick up. Put down. Pick up. Put down. Pick up. Put down.

The pattern continued as Sephiroth slowly managed to put the jigsaw puzzle together. The image that was coming together was a picture of the sky. It was all blue and each puzzle piece looked almost identical.

Sephiroth stretched, standing up from his seat and keeping his eyes on the puzzle he had just completed. His eyes flitted over to the box that the puzzle had come in and they skimmed the number on the side – 10 000.

Sighing and walking over to his door to let himself out of his room, Sephiroth reflected on his childhood and how he had only ever been given things such as jigsaw puzzles to test how quickly his brain worked. The outcome of that was that he had managed to do a ten thousand piece puzzle in five minutes.

Perhaps there were some things he could thank Hojo for, after all.
