This is a story for a contest I'm part of.
Disclaimer: I don't own Final Fantasy.
Despair, meaning to lose all hope. Yes, that sounded right. Standing in front of the huge window behind her brother's desk, she stared out at the people below. Most of them would know the hopelessness that she felt at the moment. In her trembling hand, she held a paper. It's just a paper right? Normally, Kimi would think the same thing if it wasn't for the words on the cursed paper in her hand. It was a note, from Tseng, her boss. Kimi, tears streaming down her face, looked back down at the note.
Dear Kimi,
I regret to inform you that your brother, 2nd class SOLDIER Zack Fair, died last night, having been shot to death by an unknown enemy.
Tseng.
It was short and to the point but Kimi also knew that Tseng was lying. She knew that it was Shinra that did it. They killed him. The people that he'd worked for killed her brother. Her only family. Her best friend. Her only friend.
Kimi looked back outside as a few raindrops hit the glass. She looked up at the dark clouds. The sky seemed to be crying with her. Like it too had lost all hope. Kimi's body shook with the force of her sobs. He was gone. There was nothing for her now. No friends to stay with. No other family she could go to. No one to rely on.
She was a 15 year old girl. She couldn't get a job. She had nowhere to go to. To add to all that, her brother, kind, sweet and protective, her best friend. He was gone. Gone for good. He wasn't coming back. Kimi fell to her knees in front of the window, pressing her head against the cold glass as she cried, her voice choked with the pain of her screams. She was alone. Completely alone.
