Okay so, this story features 6 original character nobodies. This chapter has only two in it (since thats all I have to work with!)
This story will have many characters: Sora, Kairi, Riku, the Twilight Town group, Organization 13, Cloud, Tifa, Aerith, Leon, Yuffie, Vincent Valentine, Sephiroth, and of course the OC's.
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy VII or Shay. (SharleaNorth does!)

"Target 1, C.A. number: 2. Target 2, C.A. number: 4."
"Superior, both targets have stopped moving. They seem to be… waiting for something."
"Target 3 approaching fast on vehicle."
"Cloud's here Xemnas…"

"Shay,"
"I know, I know; it's not like I could hear him coming a minute before you did, geez…" The girl got up from her sitting position on a crumbled statue. She had black hair with blue highlights that fell in layers to her shoulder blades. She wore a black cloak like her partner, but had a bright and innocent look to her face unlike him.
She pulled on her fingerless gloves and clapped her hands together.
Shay's soft blue eyes were shaded from the wasteland sun as she closed them and listened. Her partner watched in silence from where he stood against a wall with his arms crossed.
"Faust, I'm ready."
Faust walked to stand next to her, "Not yet, let him get closer."
The two cloaked partners had appeared from the darkness in the wasteland to wait for their target. The wastelands lay outside of Midgar, which was mostly destroyed three years ago.
"Now Shay."
The sound of an approaching motorcycle was replaced by the sound of it crashing after a faint buzzing noise. The bike slid a few yards then came to a stop in front of Faust and Shay. Shay was grinning widely at her victory while Faust frowned and looked in the air. The man who was riding the motorcycle landed on his feet and one hand while the other hand held a giant sword.
"Hello Cloud."
The man with blonde hair and the large buster sword stood up and removed his goggles, "Who do I talk to about trashing my bike?" he asked quietly. Shay giggled and put her hands on her hips, "So this is Cloud? This is the guy you're always looking for?" She looked at Faust who was staring intently at Cloud.
"You…" Cloud's eyes scanned Faust. Faust had black hair that was tied in a ponytail that went down to his waist and had shaggy bangs that sometimes covered his eyes, which were two colors. The left was blue while the right was gray.
"Cloud," Faust ignored Shay's questions and uncrossed his arms, "What do you know about… Geostigma?"
Cloud's eyes widened a little and his right arm shot up to his left subconsciously.
Faust smirked while Shay raised her eyebrow in confusion. "I suppose you do, but that's not what I came here for." Faust put his gloved hands into his pockets. "Well I don't have time to dilly-dally with strangers," Cloud muttered. Faust chuckled, "You don't remember me Cloud?"
"I do, but I try not to fuss over Nobodies, or Nobodies of Organization 13." He pointed his large sword in their direction.
"We're not with Organization 13!" Shay shouted.
"You sure do look it."
"We're from a different Organization called Chaos Arcanum." Faust informed him as Shay nodded. Cloud was silent for a moment, "It doesn't matter to me. There's too many organizations in my way as it is… Shinra, Organization 13 and now Organization Chaos Arcanum?" Shay snapped her fingers, "Just call us Chaos Arcanum." When she snapped, the faint buzzing noise was heard again and Cloud's bike was sent flying into the air to land behind him. Immediately She charged forward and Cloud swung down on her. But she had phased into darkness to appear on a stone column behind him. She held a shiruken in her hand and raised it to throw.
But before she could bring her arm forward, a hand gripped her arm. She gasped and looked to see that it was Faust.
"No, I just want to talk to him. Wait."
Shay sighed, "Whatever…"
They looked down on cloud, who had his weapon pointed at them again. "You have strange powers for a Nobody."
"I control sound waves." Shay smirked at him. "What I really came for Cloud," Faust spoke up, "Is to ask if you've seen someone." Cloud lowered his sword and stared up at the Nobodies. He had to squint because of the twilight at their backs.
"Silver hair, carries a long sword." Faust almost whispered, as if he was talking more to himself. Shay looked at him in confusion. He hadn't mentioned anything like this, only that he wanted to see Cloud.
"Geostigma, is a sickness caused by his cells in the life stream," Cloud now turned away from them and picked up his bike. "Who?!" Shay shouted out, frustrated from not knowing what was being talked about.
"Sephiroth." Cloud hopped onto his bike and started the engine. Faust nodded and took a step back, "Tell Sora I said hello."
Cloud rode away toward the town and the two Nobodies disappeared.
