Prologue – Meeting with the devil

I do not own final fantasy 7

Yaoi later on

This is my first fanfic, so please enjoy it and if you like it then review (if you want to) because that will help me out a lot :)

Most people would call me odd due to my pale skin, bright blue eyes and blond spiky hair. I was the kid that got picked on. I was the kid who was left behind. I was the kid that was never given the chance. Until one day I met this guy, he was different from the rest. He gave me that chance and now I have the biggest decision to make that could change my life.

I walked down the streets of Midgar, my attention was drawn to the faint cries of what could have been a small girl crying. I followed the noise. It grew louder and louder each step I took, I was horrified or what I saw. I saw a small girl, she looked like she was at least 8 years old, she was pinned to the wall and a familiar looking man was holding her by her neck.

"Hey, what do you think you're doing," I yelled to the man He dropped the girl onto the floor. I heard the girl whimper and she got off, of the floor and ran away. He slowly turned to look at me.

"Look what you made me do" he calmly said, "I've lost my dinner because of you". He slowly walked towards me and his face was inches away from mine."You smell different from the rest" he said, "and it appears that you haven't been taken yet Cloud".

My eyes widened and I slowly backed away "how did you know my name". He gave me a sly smile.

"I know that smell from anywhere and it turns out that Sephiroth still hasn't let you go yet," my eyes narrowed and I growled at him, showing him my not so developed fangs, "you don't know anything about me" I growled at him. He shoved me against the wall and grabbed me by my neck. I groaned in pain as I felt my head beginning to pound due to the brick wall behind me.

"I think I know more about you than you do your self Cloud, remember that" he whispered in my ear and then he disappeared. Who is that guy, I know him but I can't figure out what his name is. I rubbed my sore neck and made my way out of the abandoned street. How did this guy know about Sephiroth ,unless he is friends with him. That can't be right I haven't seen him come over to our house.

I need to tell Sephiroth about this. I began to walk back home when I felt my legs give out from beneath me and slowly fall into unconsciousness.

Flashback

"Hey guys look at the freak" a young boy shouted at a slightly small boy walking down the street. All the other children started to call him names and through things at him. He ran threw the crowd and into a dark ally way and made himself as small as possible as he heard foot steps come his way.

"Cloud" a soft voice called out for him, "can you come out for me please" it called out again. He knew this voice, he crawled out from his hiding place and ran towards the taller figure in the ally way. "shhh it's okay, I'm here now" the voice said.

End of flashback

"Hey, you wake up," I heard a voice say, "I said wake up already," the voice said again whist shaking my shoulder. I slowly start to open my eyes, a burst of bright light hit my face and I quickly shut them again. "Sorry," the voice said again. I opened my eyes again and I got up of what was a bed.

"Where am I?" I weakly questioned the black haired man sitting by the bed. He smiles at me and got up to get me a drink of some sort whilst avoiding my question. "Excuse me you didn't answer my question and you haven't told me your name yet," I told the black haired man.

He handed me over the drink and sat back down by my side. "I'm sorry," he apologised "my name is Zack fair and you're currently at my house," he said with a big grin.

"W-what, how did I get here?" I asked Zack.

"You mean you don't remember what happened, you were walking and then suddenly you collapsed onto the floor," he explained to me, "you're lucky I was there to save you, who know what could of happened to you". I blinked a couple of times before realising what happened a couple of hours ago. I passed out. "Hey, are you alright," Zack said with concern. Without me knowing I was completely spaced out.

"Hey are you – " Zack was cut of by Clouds' reply.

"Thank you," I said with a smile, I got out of the bed and walked over to the window. I need to leave as soon as possible, who knows what this guy wants with me.

"Oh, I didn't catch your name spike" he asked me. I turned around.

"Cloud, my name is Cloud," I answered him.
