Title: Live for Today
Rating: M for eventual sex, swearing, and shota in beginning.
Disclaimer: Me own Final Fantasy? Pfft. I wish.
Warning: There will be shota in the beginning of this story. If you didn't know, shota, in this case, is a grown men doing the nasty with an underage child. There will also be Yaoi in later chapters and swearing. If any of this bothers you, click the back button now.
Pairing: ChaosXVincent in the beginning, but eventually SephirothXVincent.
Summary: Vincent is diagnosed with a lethal disease. Doctor Hojo sees this as a perfect opportunity to acquire a test subject. Pronounced dead, Vincent makes a deal with his bodies new inhabitant demon to get revenge against the one who ruined his life. But, at what cost?
Note: I know that I really should be working on Glass Gem, but this idea hit me last night and I thought it was really neat and original. Plus I am in a Vincent mood… I promise that the second chapter of my other one will be up soon…maybe…
The POV will switch around…

Prologue
-Vincent-
I hear their voices sometimes. Mother is so worried for me. I have been here so long that I can tell by her tone. I try to tell her that I am fine and that everything will be alright, but she can't hear me. It is really dark and lonely here, but the doctor often tells mother that I have to stay until he can fix me. She must be lonely at our house all by herself, but she will be so happy when I am fixed, so I will stay. For her.
I wish that she wouldn't cry so hard for me. We are all each other has and I don't want her to cry while she waits for me. I am unable to tell her this, or anything for that matter. But, until she can hear me again, I will endure.
xXxXx
They're talking again. Mother and the doctor…Hojo, I think his name is… They are talking about me, I can tell by the strain in her voice. I love the sound of her voice. It is so beautiful, just like her. Unfortunately, her voice is interrupted by Hojo's unpleasant onslaught of words, "There isn't much we can do, Ms. Crescent," he begins, "he has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Unfortunately, once this particular type of cancer is found, it has already spread and is unstoppable."
Cancer? But, I don't feel bad…
I hear mother choke back a sob, "Is there nothing you can do? He is just a little boy," her voice is alarmingly quiet.
But, I feel fine mother! I wish I could see you, but the sound of your voice is enough for now.
"I'm afraid not. I'm am very sorry…" he doesn't sound sorry at all. I feel a slight pang of uneasiness toward him. He makes me anxious. I don't like him, but for her…
He continues, "We can take him out of his comatose, but he will not make it as long…," he paused, " the choice is yours."
She sounded as if the control over her emotions was breaking, "Is it alright if I give you my decision tomorrow?" she whispered hoarsely.
"Of course," he answers, sounding to eager for my liking, "Please, come this way." I heard them leave the room, the door clicking shut behind them with an air of finality.
I sighed.
I didn't like it when they left. It was too quiet. I sat there blankly starring into the darkness that surrounded me. I thought of mother and what Hojo had said to her sadly. The too-bright light that was centered on my small form, the only comfort I had.
I shifted slowly laying down on the hard surface of whatever it was that I sat on and tried to sleep. The only sound to pierce the silence was the constant beep of my heart monitor.

Ending note: Yeah, I know he sounds more like Sephiroth with his constant talk of 'mother', but it has a purpose other than making him seem more childlike. I have already gotten the first chapter in a rough draft, so that should be up shortly. Anyways, tell me what you think. Trust me, I need feedback. It inspires me!
