Hey everyone! This is my first fanfic EVER… so uhh, sorry if it sucks…. Rated for later chapters… maybe… If what little plot I have keeps going….

Disclaimer: I don't own FFVII or Reno or Rude…. there, I said it…


Rude walked down the hall of the large apartment building-like facility which housed the Turk's own private bedroom. He wore his neatly-pressed Turk uniform and his trademark black sunglasses to cover his eyes. Stepping out of the elevator which he had entered not thirty seconds earlier, he began to walk even farther down the dimly-lit corridor that stretched out before him. Scanning the room numbers screwed onto the doors, Rude made a beeline for 204, the room of his partner. He hadn't seen Reno at all today, which was odd seeing as they had just been given an assignment, and Reno was usually excited to get off of ShinRa property, even if he was still under assignment.

Rude knocked lightly on the door. Nothing. He pounded harder this time. Still no answer from his usually energetic partner. "Reno? Reno, I'm coming in, alright?" Still no reply. Rude tried the doorknob, which was unlocked; however, upon trying to open the door, Rude found that the entrance had been blocked, so the door wouldn't open fully. Rude sighed. "Reno, if you're not feeling well just tell me. I can even lie to the president if you've got a hangover or anything!" Rude was trying now. He had an unexplainable need to see Reno, to make sure he was still there and hadn't left. "Reno! Look man, just open up! I don't care just open the door Reno!" Rude was desperate. Now, he needed to see Reno NOW. With all the strength Rude shoved open the door, effectively shoving all the furniture that had been holding it shut halfway across the room. "Oh dear god….. RENO!?" Rude was frantic. After shoving the door open, he came into his partner's room only to see Reno's shirt and coat thrown across the floor, and Reno laying face down on his bed, a steady stream of blood flowing from under his left arm. "RENO!" Rude sprinted as fast as is possible in as small a room as Reno's straight over to his partner. He flipped Reno to his back and surveyed the body below him. Rude's instincts took over, first, he had to check Reno was still alive. "Pulse.. Where's the pulse?" He put his hand on the side of Reno's neck. "Thank god, thank god…." was all Rude could muster after finding a steady beat. Reno must just be passed out then. Rude looked at his large, now blood covered hand. "Damn Reno…What the hell happened this time?"

Rude took off his jacket and tied it tightly around the open gash on Reno's arm. "Now we just gotta get you somewhere to close that up." Rude picked up Reno, seeing his arm was the only wounded area of Reno's body. Mid-lift, Reno's other hand relaxed and a small, silver object dropped to the floor. Rude heard the small 'Ping' and looked around to see if Reno's attacker might still be in the room, however the shine of the silver attracted his attention to the floor. "Damn Reno, you can't be doing this, you just can't" Any normal Turk would be amazed at how suddenly the normally calm and almost Zen-like Turk that Rude was, could have broken down so suddenly, however, an observant Turk wouldn't be surprised at Rude's outburst when he noticed the object that was sitting on the floor. Rude set Reno back on his bed, now that the bleeding was stopping, and picked up the small, blood covered razor. "Rude sighed, placed the razor, still bloody in his pocket, knowing full well that one mis-step could lead to his leg being cut, but still, he had to get Reno to a hospital. Now. Rude lifted Reno again, and ran down the hall, but not after shutting and locking Reno's door. He didn't want anyone getting in.

Rude ran with Reno over his shoulder down to the nearest medical facility, which was only a few streets away and burst into the doors of the large white building. The receptionist was about to ask if they had called beforehand, but seeing the blood that covered Rude, and mostly Reno, she immiadely called in a doctor. There was no one else in the emergency room, so the doctors took Reno in right away, leaving the Rude alone in the waiting room, still with Reno's blood on his hands.
