As usual, I DONT OWN NOTHIN'
It was one of the days in Midgar that Cloud hated. It was cold and windy, and it just finished raining. Prime conditions for sickness to grab hold of him. Something he couldn't afford, since he was on delivery runs more frequently now. It didn't help that he was soaked to the bone, but the delivery this morning was urgent. The delivery being healing water to Rocket town. It had been a few months after the showdown with the remnants, but some people still suffered from the geostigma. He was just outside the city, on the cliff where he lost his best friend. Cloud always came here feeling full of regret. As he approached Zacks resting place, he heard a squeak of surprise followed by some scurrying. He raised an eyebrow at this and silently walked towards flower-covered grave. Hiding amongst the flowers he found two hooded bodies. Alarmed, he snatched the hood off of one, shocked to find a mess of raven hair.
"HEY!"
Cloud was in shock at this point and couldn't even remotely hear the protests of the young girl in front of him. Somewhat spiky hair that flowed to her shoulder, bangs that were like his deceased friends, reaching her chin. What truly captured him was her face. Lips in a pout, cheeks slightly puffed out in frustration, and her eyes. Amethyst, like…. Like…
"Zack."
"Zack? Who's that? Is that you're name? Are you Zack?" the girl cocked her head to the side, looking very much like a puppy. A smile now adorned her face and her eyes seemed to have a little sparkle to them.
"No. I-I'm….." Cloud was rather flustered now, since he was still trying to wrap his head around the possibility that Zack had a-
"Well, hiya Spiky! My name is Amethyst and my lil' buddy here is Sky! She's a little quiet right now, but that's only cause she's sick…." She spared a glance at the other bundle, with a worried expression. They stared at each other for a bit and a wind kicked up. Amethyst instinctly brought the smaller bundle closer, the latter shuddering from the cold. The girl looked mature, even though Cloud guessed she was around thirteen-years-old. He connected with her then, paternal instincts taking over. He picked them both up, Amethyst letting out a squawk in the process.
The ride back to Midgar was more of a race against the rain, Cloud not wanting the two girls to catch anything worse. In the front of Seventh Heaven, Amethyst tugged on Clouds sleeve, and looked into his eyes. Cloud looked at the older of the two and his breath hitched.
"Mister?" The girl said"You ok?" she tilted her head slightly, bangs shifting. The smaller,hidden in a cloak,tightened her grip on her companions arm. He nodded, so she continued.
"Mister... can you help my friend?" her violet eyes were filled with concern, just like his Zacks back then... Cloud snapped himself out of his thoughts and brought them inside.
" Tifa! Get me some medicine for younger kids!" he set the little girl on the bar counter and looked to the girl currently bouncing on the balls of her feet. When Tifa came back she could only stare in shock.
"Thanks."Cloud mumbled."Now lets see..." he grabbed ahold of the hood and what greeted him made Cloud stare openly. Big blue eyes stared back frightened at all the attention. Blonde hair framed her face, the lower half covered by her scarf. She looked about six, and was shivering slightly.
" Cloud, why does she-" Tifa was cut off by a violent cough from the blonde haired girl. Sky looked to Amethyst and whimpered, holding out her arms, wanting to be held.
"Hey Sky, you kinda look like umm Spiky!" she gestured to Cloud, since she didn't know his name. Cloud only gaped at them.
" Cloud, you have a daughter?"
