Chapter 1: what's gone is gone.

Genesis Rhapsodos peered out in the pitch dark room, with the candles burning in front of him. His eyes focused on the dancing fire on the top of the candle. By judging the candle, it had burned for awhile, the candle wick could tell. And the warm wax floated down the white candle. No one of the other soldiers had been seeing around for awhile, not that he complained, he enjoyed his time alone. The man with the auburn hair glanced at the door, once and awhile, to make sure that no one was around.

Loveless lay on a table not far away from him, still in a good shape. The stars were like a hundred thousand gleaming jewels on the dark heaven.

Days without sleep had left him exhausted, but Angeal hadn't been around lately, nor had Sephiroth. He shifted his position in the chair, restlessly. Genesis didn't mind the silence, nor the time he ha on his own, in fact, he enjoyed it. It was only one person that had gone him on his nerves lately, Angeal's bouncy puppy, Zack. He had more than once wanted to give that kid a chill pill, the younger boy's happy mood had more than once made Genesis want to leave the room.

After all, Angeal was just overprotective; Zack was nearly 18, capable to take care of himself.
Genesis stared up at one of the brightest jewels on the night sky; in fact the night had always fascinated him more than once. He sighed, leaved his mouth half open, and his bright mako eyes half closed.

"I want to be a hero too." He murmured soft as his eyes were as good as glued at the same star. His mouth closed and his eyes opened again. Genesis rose from the chair, walked over to the window and lent his forehead against the cool glass. And found out that his loneliness wasn't as great as he thought it was. In fact he wanted some company; he was just too headstrong to admit it. The only company he could get at the moment would have been the bouncy puppy, Zack, Zack wasn't a bad friend, he was just… younger and… wilder. Genesis could handle that, as long as it didn't last for days.

A smile rose over his light coloured lips, forehead still against the cool window glass, auburn hair covering his face. He was sure of it now; he would become a hero, sooner or later. The candle was still burning, and Loveless lay on the same spot.

Genesis hated August, Midgar was chill, and the leaves were on the ground, covered in every single colour. He frowned, still wishing it was the beginning of June, the beginning of the summer.
His eyes peered at the colourful leaves for a moment, on the ground.

He heard someone, walking in the corridors, and he returned to his chair, loveless in his hands, attempting to read. A spiky, black haired head was the first thing he saw, before Zack entered the room without being invited.

"Why, the fuck are you sitting in a pitch dark room, man?" Zack wondered, his hands on his hips, and Genesis glared over the book at Zack. Genesis frowned and lay Loveless down on the table again.

"Because I want to, do you mind?" he picked up Loveless and attempted to read instead.

"not at all, it's just-" Zack started.

"great, a hello is the usual way to greet someone before entering a room, you know, and I do as I wish, you do as you wish, Zack." Genesis cut Zack off, and the younger boy's brows rose.

"Hello" Zack muttered dry, and Genesis smirked.

"Hello" he agreed, still smirking.
