Broken
Disclaimer: Once again, I do not own FF or any characters associated with it. (If I did, however, Yazoo, Loz and Kadaj would be mine, ALL MINE!!)
I wanted you to know that I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steel your pain away
Kadaj and his siblings walked through the torn streets of Midgar, hoping to find somewhere to stay for the night. As they walked past, the citizens were scowling and backing away from them in fear, anger and frustration. One man approached Yazoo and drew back to strike him. Not wanting to hurt anyone else, he stood and didn't bother to stop him. When the man's fist met the silver- haired teens jaw, Kadaj tried to pry the man off of his brother as gently as he could.
However, once the first man began, the rest of the crowd began to attack them as well…
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steel your pain
Because I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
People tearing and hitting them; trying to bring the trio down. Loz was fighting to break free of one mans' grip while trying to dodge blows from an infuriated woman who lost her only daughter during the attack. Yazoo Was still being stricken by the same man while others joined the brawl. Kadaj was being torn at and pulled on from every direction.
A shot was fired from the barrels of none other than Vincent Valentines' gun and the furious rioters paused…
You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore
Cloud Strife walked to Vincent's side and raised his hand to silence the angry crowd. "Listen," he began "I know that many of you have made sacrifices. And I also know that many of you mourn the loss of loved ones. I know your pain… I too have suffered great losses recently as well. These men," he continued, pointing toward the trio, "have been under a false impression; the same false impression that Sepheroth was under when he was still with us. They had been raised as Sepheroth clones, believing that their 'Mother', Jenova, would come for them in a reunion. They have grown apart from their first beliefs though, you must believe them… they are not as Sepheroth was anymore. Kadaj, Yazoo, Loz… will you come to join me?"
The three clones walked toward the area where the Shin-Ra memorial once stood. "Please," Kadaj began "if you can ever find it in your hearts to forgive us… we will be forever in your debt. Mother is not coming for us… we can begin rebuilding the city… clean up… atone for our sins… What do you say? Are we in this together?" People in the once violent crowd murmured to one another and began clapping in approval. Grateful smiles emerged on the brothers' faces…
The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high and steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
In the 7th Heaven bar, the triplets were being bandaged from the wounds received by the days' earlier angry mob. Kadaj suffered of multiple cuts and his limbs were either torn or pulled out of their sockets. Yazoo was a little better but had received multiple contusions and a minor concussion. Loz had multiple punctures where a man had began stabbing him with his house keys. All three were beaten and bruised.
They all vowed that tomorrow, they would begin rebuilding Midgar…
Cause
I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
Cause
I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right
when you're gone
You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore
