Disclaimer: don't own the Final fantasy 13 stuff do own Snake Vercetti
When I awoke that morning I hadn't realized how much had changed, looking through the crimson curtains that framed my window I saw the giant crystal pillar that holds up Cocoon. It still pained me to think about how much had changed that day, Fang and Vanille sacrificed themselves to save us and Gran Pulse were we all now lived, however I remembered the good it had brought us Serah had been returned to me and Snow while Dajh was returned to Sazh, even with the return of my sister I could still feel this emptiness inside, something seemed to be missing.
Turning my back on the crystal pillar I pulled on my Guardian Corps uniform, the team had been reformed here on Gran Pulse however so had PSICOM. I still didn't understand it all after everything we had done there didn't seem to be much difference, Snow now had his wife, and Sazh his son, even Hope had someone new in his life so why did I feel so empty.
I took the long walk through the crowded streets to my office, my case load was getting to high and to make things worse, I was getting assigned a new partner today as my previous one had quit. I couldn't help picturing my new partner as some rookie kid straight from the academy; I entered the clean reception area of my station and signed in sighing slightly ready for another dull day at the office.
"Ah there you are" My superior said as I exited the lift coming back from my dinner break, I still had no idea who my partner was supposed to be as they hadn't been there this morning.
"Yes sir" I said walking over to my commanding officer saluting.
"I would like to introduce you to your new partner" He said standing aside slightly allowing me to enter his office, time to meet the snotty nosed punk I'd been paired with "This is Snake Vercetti". As he turned around however I was surprised to see he was dare I say it, cute? His short black hair was kept neatly in place while his electric blue eyes seemed to look right through me. He was wearing a black t-shirt with blue denim jeans not what I would consider appropriate for a member of Guardian Corps.
"So you're my partner it's an honor" He said to me holding out his hand which I shook without hesitation, I couldn't help the strange feeling I had inside.
"Good I'm glad to see your getting on" My General said "Now, I suggest you get back to your work load Lightning I want it on my desk by the end of your shift". I nodded and headed to my office with my new partner following behind me, I sat behind my desk while he sat behind his putting his feet up and leaning back on his chair.
"Do you mind not doing that?" I asked him politely "It's rather distracting".
"Sorry" he said nervously running his hand through his hair "Want a hand?"
"It's your first day" I said "So you won't know about these cases".
"Actually I read them all while you were on your dinner" He said this surprised me, how could someone read sixty three cases in the space of an hour.
"Do you expect me to believe that?" I asked eyeing him with suspicion.
"Believe what you want partner" He said "You'll find that I've made some alterations on your notes so that it sounds better, wouldn't want boss man yelling at you".
"His name is General Raines" I said "Not boss man".
"Fair enough but still didn't want you getting into trouble" He said "Well since I don't have any work, I'm going to sleep for a while wake me up when we can go". Watching him lie back in his chair and fall asleep I couldn't help thinking I'd prefer a rookie rather than this man who didn't seem to care, reading though my notes I found that he had indeed changed my reports not just one of them but all sixty three of them. How had one person done all of this? It's impossible, I was brought out of my thoughts however when the phone on my desk began to ring.
"Hello" I said answering it "Sergeant Farron speaking".
"Sergeant Farron I must be quick" Said a voice I didn't recognise "I'm sending you two packages, one contains a mobile phone which I strongly advise you keep on you at all times, the second is a document concerning one of your cases. I advise you keep it to yourself I don't know who in Guardian Corps can be trusted, I must go I will ring the mobile when I can". The caller hung up on me as someone knocked on my office door making my partner wake with a start, hanging up the phone I signed for the two packages that had come for me. It was just like the mysterious caller had said two packages I could only guess which contained the information of my case.
"Someone's popular" My partner said laughing at his own silly joke.
"Save it" I shot at him "I've read the alterations you made to my notes and have to ask, how you did it?"
"Which?" He asked me clearly trying to play stupid "Oh you mean make alterations to your notes on cases I'd only read about? Simple really I've been keeping a track on all your cases anyway; in fact I personally demanded to be placed as your partner bit of a pity your previous partner had to quit for me to get the job".
"Why would you want to be paired with me?" I asked taken aback slightly by his previous comment.
"You're the legendary Sergeant Lightning Farron" he said that was surprising to me as it was the first time anyone had called me legendary "Took on the Sanctum to save your sister, I'm impressed".
"How do you know all of this?" I asked my suspicion of this man rising at every moment; this even made me forget for a moment how cute he was.
"In time I'll tell you" He said "Anyway who's the gifts from?" He reminded me of someone yet couldn't think of whom at that moment, my attention was drawn to the packages taking the first one in my hands I opened it and let the contents fall out into my hand it was a phone just like the caller had said. Then that meant the second package was the information on my case, grabbing my jacket I went to leave before I felt someone grab hold of my arm I turned to see my new partner Snake holding onto me.
"Going for a drive"? He asked "Want some company?"
"Fine" I said looking at him "I guess I'll have to show you around eventually".
"Fair enough" he said his carefree attitude I still couldn't pin point who it reminded me of "Well come on then I'll drive".
