Full of Life

Chapter 1

Ruska

"Hey, bitch, give me a new glass of beer!" Tifa turned to face a drunk man in her bar, she sighed. She sighed, this happened to her every single night. She crossed her arms under her breasts and fought the urge to roll her eyes.

"I think that you've had more than enough" Tifa muttered, and expected him to explode, instead the whole bar turned completely silent. The drunk man rose from his chair, took a couple of dizzy steps in Tifa's direction. He fisted his hands, and she almost thought that she could hear him swear, but she wasn't sure.

"You bitch, I decide when I've had enough, now I want another glass of beer, am I making myself clear?" he lifted his empty beer glass from the table, and tossed it in her direction, she dodged it. A man dressed in a red leather coat watched them closely, but she had never had the time to study him. Besides he wasn't anyone she knew about. The drunk man grabbed Tifa's leather west and held her firmly, one of his arms held her arms in one firm grip. "I think it would be smart of you to do as you're told" he hissed, but this didn't scare Tifa. Instead she was able to free one of her arms, and she desperately tried to make him leave. He lifted his arm to hit her, she waited for his fist to hit her face… but she never felt the blow.

The man with the red leather coat held the drunk man's arm. Tifa shook herself out of the drunk man's grip. Genesis hit the drunk man so hard he flew half across 7th heaven.

"And I think it would be smart of you to leave this place, men like you really sickens me!" Genesis yelled, and the drunk man slowly started to crawl backwards. Then he rose to his feet and ran out of the bar. Tifa rolled her eyes and wrinkled her nose, she could smell the testosterone. Genesis turned to face her, she stared into his mako enchanted eyes and then she smiled.

"Well, thank you. I had it perfectly under control, I didn't ask for help!" Tifa said and walked over to sit on one of the chairs. Genesis snorted, and it wasn't very attractive.

"Yeah, I saw that. You had it all under control, but what I saw was not control. I saw chaos. He was about to hit you, and you didn't even defend yourself!" Genesis murmured and couldn't stop grinning. If he could, then he would have rerun the whole scene, just to prove her that she was wrong. Tifa bit her lower lip, why did she sound so bitchy? It was something about him, she couldn't explain it, but he teased her. She could hear it in his words as well as see it in his body language.

"Well, you're surely got one smug attitude, what's you name, hero?" she whispered and waited for him to answer her, because he had a smug behaviour.

"My name is none of your business" he told her and started to walk away. He was headed for the door but she grabbed his arm and held him back.

"a hero like you would like to get a prize, am I right? What if I offered you a beer, it's on the house" her tone was lighter now, almost friendly. The man had auburn hair and blue eyes, just as blue as the sky. It reminded her of the times when she could still see the sky, now the sky above her was clouded with fog. And it had been so long since she had seen the autumn leaves. The brunette hadn't seen a blue sky for so long. The man with the auburn hair didn't answer her, in stead he kept on walking. "Hey wait for me! I want to thank you!" she added and followed him. She felt the autumn wind dance around her and closed her brown eyes and pretended like the most stunning leaves would fly around her. The girl lifted her arms above her head, and Genesis looked at her with a sceptical glare, what was she? A witch? No matter what she was, she was one of the most stunning creatures that he had seen in all of his life, and he had seen a lot of women, but none of them was as beautiful as this one.

"I never asked you to follow me, and I never asked you to thank me" his voice sounded so cold now. Tifa's eyes snapped open, she had tried to be nice but he had cut her off. He continued to walk, but she didn't bother to follow him this time.

"My name is Tifa Lockhart, by the way… if you change your mind about the beer, then you now where to find me" Tifa smiled and watched him pause for a couple of seconds, and then he continued to walk. The girl with the brown hair watched him as he disappeared around the corner of a nearby house. Tifa turned around and entered 7th heaven once again and sighed. He was the most amazing man that she had ever seen in her life.

'I don't want her to see the monster that I have become the latest year. That's why we can't see each other again, we are simply too different. I have to stay away from her. She's better off without me, and I have to control myself, and for as long as I can restrain myself… I don't want to hurt her in any way. If I continue to see her then it will only get more difficult with each passing day to control myself. My longing for blood turns into hunger, and I don't know if I could live like that. But I long to meet her again someday' Genesis thought as he walked down one of the streets, a autumn leaf landed in front of his shoe. He wasn't sure of where it had come from, he lifted up the fragile leaf and stared at it. The leaf was just as auburn as his own hair.

Authors note; I know that I shouldn't have started a new fic, because I haven't updated the rest of them for a very long time. I own nothing, the characters are (C) Square Enix, and Ruska is a Finnish word. 'In Finnish, Ruska signifies the period in the autumn when the foliage of trees and shrubs has turned into shades of yellow, red and orange.
