I don't own Final Fantasy VII, I just enjoy writing about the characters.
It was no mystery why Zack Fair was nicknamed "The Puppy". His boundless energy and cheerful disposition endeared him to everyone, even the cold Silver General. He had a smile that never disappeared no matter the circumstances.
It was difficult to believe that the young man was one of the deadliest of Shin-Ra. His skills were nearly on par with the top SOLDIER's of the program: Angeal Hewley, Genesis Rhapsodos, and Sephiroth himself.
With any other person, the trio would have been on their guard, prepared to eliminate him should he prove to be a threat. Zack was a completely different story. He wormed his way into their friendship and proved that he belonged with them.
Angeal was his mentor, the one who taught him to defend his loved ones at all costs. Genesis was the drama queen who taught him to never take anyone at face value. Sephiroth taught him to move beyond the past. Their lessons were hard won from experience.
Zack brought to them a reminder that life is not all bad. The innocence of a puppy embodied in a young man would forever change the jaded trio.
This was just a little something I wrote up in class. I am planning on making this a series of drabble, mostly about Zack, but it may turn into other characters as well. I have another one nearly done so I will hopefully get it up as well. ~Amaya
